The nearby channels, which were originally flooded with posts, were instantly filled with uniform question marks.

【? ? ? 】

【? ? ? 】

Chi Chengren was also dumbfounded.

"no……"

"I just asked when we could play."

"You really came?"

"You came way too fast!"

"Only ten minutes left?"

The live chat exploded.

[Host, is your mouth blessed?!]

If you hadn't asked, would it have arrived two days later?

[Who is Bai Ni Bu Bai? Why are you so cheeky!]

[Wow, the main storyline has been triggered right away? So fast?]

[It's only been a few days! How did this player manage to do that?!]

Before players could even process the first message, a second server-wide announcement popped up.

[Server-wide Emergency: An Extraterrestrial Descent]

[Unknown entity's predicted landing location: Falling Star Plains]

[All players are welcome to participate in the battle; there are no level or sect restrictions.]

During the event, individual contributions will be calculated based on players' actions such as dealing damage, providing crowd control, healing, and other support.

The top 100 players in terms of individual contribution will receive exclusive rewards in the first round.

[Upon defeating the final target, all participants will receive a basic reward.]

【All sword cultivators, please prepare immediately.】

The entire city of Lintian remained silent for about three seconds.

Then, complete chaos ensued.

News from nearby channels flooded in like a torrent.

[A super boss? Such a huge boss appears on the second day after the server opens?]

How do I get to Falling Star Plains? Does anyone have a map?

[Buying medicine! Buying back blood-replenishing medicine at a high price! Hurry! The price is definitely going to go up later!]

[Greatsword player seeking teammate, tanky and capable of dealing damage]

The Seven Swords United team is recruiting again; two members just logged off!

The merchant who had been sitting on the ground setting up his stall just moments before suddenly stood up.

Some people simply packed their stalls into their backpacks, drew their swords, and rushed towards the teleportation array. Others, seeing a business opportunity, not only didn't close their stalls but also doubled the prices of healing potions and repair materials.

[You swindler! A bottle of medicine only cost 50 gold coins a moment ago! And now you're charging me 150?!]

The world is about to end, so rising transportation costs are perfectly reasonable.

[You didn't even move your stall, so where did the transportation costs come from?]

[It's the psychological cost of transportation! How can I not raise the price and do justice to this boss! It was 50 before the boss came, and it's still 50 after he comes. Wouldn't that mean the boss's trip was for nothing?]

Players immediately crowded in front of the teleportation arrays in Lintian City.

Those who could fly on swords took off directly from the city, and streaks of sword light of various colors rushed out of the city.

Even those who couldn't fly on swords weren't idle. Some summoned spirit pets or mounts, some used speed-up talismans, and some simply ran after other players.

Above Lintian City, streaks of sword light almost formed a long river.

The multicolored sword light and the glow of magical artifacts intertwined, resembling an extremely dazzling super meteor shower.

On the ground, many more players who couldn't fly on swords could only run wildly along the official road, frantically asking for help in the nearby chat channels as they ran.

[Hey bro, for those pet-loving characters, can anyone actually sit on your tiger's back?]

[Holy crap! I just joined the sect, and I haven't even finished learning the sword techniques!]

[I'm still catching rabbits, and the system is sending me to Falling Star Plains to fight enemies. Is this power gap reasonable?]

Don't ask, the answer is always the same: the rise and fall of the nation is everyone's responsibility!

Chi Cheng flew over the city wall on the morning star and glanced down below.

The entire official road has been completely blocked.

Someone is riding a white deer.

Someone is sitting on a giant gourd.

Chi Cheng was completely dumbfounded.

"And this is only the third day!"

"The entire server's players haven't even figured out the route yet, and the big boss has already arrived?"

"Did Chaoxi Games never intend to give us any time to develop?"

"They're even starting to block people!"

"My imperial robes haven't even warmed yet, and my 'Eighths of the Morning' skill has only just advanced! And I'm already off to save the world? I'm not ready yet!"

Although the group of people were all complaining, very few of them actually gave up.

After all, this was the first server-wide incident since the launch of "I Have a Sword".

The announcement will be synchronized across all servers, and all players can participate.

The top 100 contributors will also receive exclusive rewards.

Even knowing that they might just be there to make up the numbers, not many people would be willing to miss out.

Fear? Doesn't exist!

For players, no matter how intense the pressure of events in the storyline is, it's still just a game!

In their eyes, that wasn't some world-destroying extraterrestrial demon cultivator at all; it was clearly a walking gold mine! It was getting rich overnight, the ultimate moment for everyone to show off!

[Charge! Charge! Charge! Charge! Even if I die, it'll be worth it if I can just touch the boss once!]

[I just bought ten "ten-second instant death pills," watch me demonstrate what "fleeting beauty" truly means!]

[The top 100 are mine! Anyone who dares to steal my aggro, I'll cut down my own people too!]

Chi Cheng also controlled Zao Ba to continue accelerating.

"By the time you're ready for this kind of activity, it'll be too late!"

"Let's go take a look first."

"What if I'm blessed with divine favor, and strike its vital point with my sword, securing the world's first kill?"

[I dare not dream of being the world's first to kill, but I might have a chance to be the world's first to be carried.]

[It is suggested that Emperor Chi choose a burial site in advance.]

"Shut up!"

Following the red markers on the map, Chi Cheng flew towards Falling Star Plain.

The closer they got to the target location, the clearer the black cracks in the sky became.

There were no clouds around the crack, and a dark red light flowed slowly inside, occasionally revealing some blurry, huge outlines.

There are also more and more players on the ground.

Falling Star was originally a vast wasteland, but now it has been mostly occupied by sword cultivators who have arrived. Players from different sects are scattered around, with the front row almost entirely composed of heavy swordsmen and defensive swordsmen, while the back row is filled with rapiers, flying swordsmen, and spirit pets.

Some people even started doing business temporarily.

[Last eight minutes! Healing potions on sale at a low price!]

[One-stop pre-battle repair service: sword repair, armor replenishment, and more!]

[Insurance service: We'll help retrieve your loot if you die in battle. Deposit required! First come, first served!]

Time passed second by second.

Ten minutes of countdown felt like an eternity to players who were on their way.

Chi Cheng landed on his sword and turned his perspective.

Players were everywhere, in front, behind, left, and right.

He had never seen so many people around him since he started playing games!

After all, who could have predicted this? A game, only three days after launch, and the boss has already appeared! How are we supposed to play like this?

The countdown has entered its final minute.

The once noisy Falling Star Plain gradually quieted down.

More and more players closed their chat windows and looked up at the sky. Even the merchants who were still selling medicine packed up their stalls and drew their signature swords.

【00:10】

【00:09】

The crack in the sky began to tremble violently.

A dark red light surged from the depths of the crack, illuminating the entire Falling Star Plain in a dim light.

【00:05】

【00:04】

Chi Cheng gripped the mouse, his eyes fixed intently on the screen.

"They're here."

Soon, the countdown reached zero.

The black crack that stretched across the sky suddenly tore open to both sides!

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

The inside of the crack was pitch black.

Then, a foot slowly emerged from the darkness.

It was a human-shaped silhouette.

It wore a dark-colored long robe of indistinct material, and its figure was not much different from that of an ordinary player, but its face was completely covered by a layer of gray mist.

It stepped down from thousands of meters in the air, and an invisible staircase naturally appeared beneath its feet.

After the first figure appeared, a second one followed closely behind.

The third.

the fourth.

Four humanoid figures stood quietly below the crack.

They do not have huge bodies.

There was no ferocious head.

You can't even see the weapon in his hand clearly.

The moment the four figures appeared, all the players' characters on Falling Star Plains began to sink slightly involuntarily.

[Affected by unknown pressure]

[Movement speed reduced]

[Sword flight height is limited]

Chi Cheng tried to control the character to jump.

Chi Tiandi jumped less than half a meter before being forcibly pressed back to the ground as if by something.

"no……"

Are there four people?

"I thought a monster bigger than a mountain was going to fall down!"

Chi Cheng subconsciously wanted to use the [Investigate] skill on these four NPCs to check their attributes and levels.

However, the moment the mouse clicks...

Everyone discovered an even more serious problem.

The information panels above the heads of the four figures were all blank.

【name:?????】

【grade:?????】

【realm:?????】

[Affiliation: ? ? ? ? ?]

【Skill:?????】

【weakness:? ? ? ? ? 】

Looking around, all you see are question marks.

I can't even tell the name!

The nearby channels were instantly flooded with messages.

What is it?

Why can't I see anything?

[Even the level is a question mark, how many levels higher is this than us?]

[What kind of monster is this?! Does it not even deserve to let us know its name?! Is it shy?]

Are these really the monsters you'd expect on the third day after the server launch?

Four? Isn't it just one boss? Why are there four?

How the hell is this supposed to work? Are they worried there won't be enough for all of us?
