This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

Players from the two regions have a 70% difference in all attributes when they come and go!

This blow has struck a vital artery for players in Zone 3.

Players in Zone 4 receive a +50% bonus to all attributes. For ordinary Foundation Establishment players, this 50% bonus is barely enough to improve their attributes by even a small realm. Early Foundation Establishment players still can't beat mid-Foundation Establishment players.

However, for him, this was a huge improvement.

Two days ago, he was able to directly confront a late-stage Golden Core BOSS.

Two days later, he possessed the Golden Dragon Bloodline and the True Phoenix Bloodline, increasing all his attributes by 90%. With this additional 50% increase in all attributes, his combat power skyrocketed!

The previous statement about killing off veteran players in the third server was probably a joke.

But now... it boils down to two words: smash!

"Wow, that's awesome! The planners are really afraid of a one-sided outcome."

Jiang Liu grinned and happily opened the activity interface in the upper left corner of his field of vision.

[Nine-Layer Thunder Control Formation]

[Event Introduction: There is a hidden array on Feather Island called the Ninefold Thunder Control Array, which can help young spirit embryos overcome tribulations and break through to the next life stage. Jiang Liu, the protector of the Crimson Flame Divine Continent, brought it to this island and into this array, intending to use it to help a mysterious pet egg. However, this array is currently inactive and requires a large number of Thunder Spirit Stones to activate.]

[Event Details: Players in Zone 4 need to collect Thunder Spirit Stones scattered throughout the island, and use these stones to infuse the Ninefold Thunder Control Array to activate it.]

Duration: 24 hours

Was it I who brought that mysterious pet egg to this island?

Jiang Liu looked bewildered and subconsciously opened his backpack to take a closer look, but he didn't find the mysterious pet egg.

Where's the egg?

He looked around until he saw a giant, seven-colored egg under a thousand-meter-long light barrier not far away, and then he was speechless.

The egg is already in place, so this step was skipped?

Below the event page, there are two icons and two progress bars.

[Zone 3 - Piercing Spear: 0%]

[Fourth District - Ninefold Thunder Defense Array: 0%]

There are two images, one is a gun, and the other is a formation.

The formation is what players in Zone 4 need to build, while the gun is what players in Zone 3 need to build.

I understand. I understood it at a glance.

The main task for players in Zone 4 during the second phase of the event was to complete the Ninefold Thunder Defense Formation, while also preventing players in Zone 3 from completing the Piercing Array Breaking Spear.

The task for players in Zone 3 is the same: to complete the Breaking Formation Spear and destroy the Thunder Defense Formation.

This is the point of conflict in this phase of the activity!

Jiang Liu pondered silently, his gaze continuing downwards. When he saw the familiar pay-to-win shop, his eyes lit up.

My cheat program finally arrived!

Without you, I don't even know how to play this game anymore.

He opened the in-game store with high expectations, but the empty store greatly disappointed him.

In previous events, the in-game store was always overflowing with items and privileges, as if they wanted players to buy them all.

And this pay-to-win shop... only contains one item and one privilege.

[Mystic Guardian Summoning Order: Summons a Foundation Establishment Grand Perfection level guard to protect the Nine Heavens Thunder Control Array. Price: 998 Spirit Stones. Limited to 1000 purchases.]

[Resurrection Privilege: After purchasing this privilege, the resurrection cooldown time is halved. Price: 1888 Spirit Stones]

"That's it? That's all?"

After casually buying all the summoning tokens and privileges, Jiang Liu looked at the blank pay-to-win shop with an expression of utter disbelief.

We're only selling one item and one privilege!

Then what's the point of opening a pay-to-win shop?

1000 summoning orders, 998000 spirit stones.

Resurrection privilege: 1888 spirit stones.

Total expenditure: 999888 spirit stones.

A pay-to-win shop where you can buy everything with just 100 million spirit stones? What kind of idiot game planner came up with this?

This is an intern, right? If they can't make games, surely they can at least force players to spend money?

If you can't even do this, you're not a planner. Go home and eat shit!

Jiang Liu's face darkened slightly, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly. There were no items in the pay-to-win shop, wasn't that like they were banning his cheat?

How can he spend money now?

How can you become stronger without consuming?

Before the event started, there was a special notice saying that the protectors would consume a lot of spirit stones. I even saved up 1000 million spirit stones in my inventory, thinking I would just use 1000 million spirit stones for this event.

But what happens after the event starts?

Total consumption: 999888 spirit stones; Actual consumption: 9998.88 spirit stones.

I prepared 1000 million spirit stones, and you want me to spend 10000 spirit stones?

My personal suggestion is to reassign the planner of this pay-to-win shop to be a stable boy. This kind of planner who considers the needs of ordinary players is not suitable for this game; he is better suited to raising horses.

"I'm speechless. These days, even if you have money, you can't spend it."

Jiang Liu shook his head speechlessly, looked up at the countdown in the sky. There were still more than ten minutes before the second phase of the event officially started, and this was just the preparation phase.

There's nothing to prepare; it's just a matter of fighting strength.

He pursed his lips and walked towards the kilometer-long light barrier in the center of the player area.

Players had already gathered around the light shield, looking curiously at the seven-colored giant egg in the center of the shield and whispering among themselves.

"This egg is several times bigger than a dinosaur egg. Could it be that it contains a Titan?"

"Who knows? Probably only Jiang Liu from our district, or the top contributor from the fourth district, would know."

"Such a big egg, do you think it contains a monster or Megatron?"

"Why can't she be an unparalleled holy fairy?"

"Wow...you're reliable."

Ok?

Is it possible for a fairy to hatch from an egg?

It doesn't seem impossible, how come I didn't think of that?

Listening to the discussions around him, Jiang Liu also felt a great interest and anticipation for the creature inside the egg.

This is a treasure; it must be protected carefully.

After staring at the nearly ten-meter-tall, seven-colored giant egg for a few moments, he raised his hand and summoned 1000 Xuan Guards who instantly appeared around him.

The sudden appearance of 1000 Xuanwei startled the surrounding players. Looking from afar, they immediately spotted Jiang Liu among the Xuanwei.

"It's Jiang Liu!"

Someone cried out in surprise.

"Holy crap, they just unleashed 1000 Xuanwei in one go! No wonder they're number one in the fourth district, they're really something else!"

"One million spirit stones have already been spent before the event even started?"

"Waaaaah! After several months of the server opening, I can finally get to play with Jiang Dashen! We didn't even finish the last monster event!"

"Our team is the same, we just can't beat them, we simply can't win, and we didn't even get the final event reward, it's a huge loss!"

"Boss Jiang, do we think we'll win this event?"

"We will win! I won't say anything more. Although I'm short of money, I still have some savings. I'll personally buy 10 Xuanwei Guardian Arrays!"

"The fate of the entire region is everyone's responsibility! I'll buy 20!"

"I'll buy 50!"

"I'll smash the spirit stones I borrowed from the company! I'll buy 100 Xuanwei and take over the Third District!"

Jiang Liu's generous gesture of giving away 1000 Xuanwei greatly excited the surrounding players, who all clamored to buy Xuanwei and conquer the third server.

One Xuanwei costs 998 spirit stones, which is affordable for many players in the third server.

Spending money on games is perfectly normal, especially since this is a cross-region event.

Firstly, for the victory of the event; secondly, for the glory of the region; and thirdly, for the event rewards.

Hundreds of millions of players are engaged in team battles, which is even more exciting than the S2 season. We should hurry up and supply them with weapons.

Xuanwei is actually a military supply depot!

Jiang Liu activated the shielding mode and had no idea how many players were around him. All he knew was that when he blinked, the screen was filled with Xuanwei, who were at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment!

A vast, dark mass of Xuanwei, clad in armor and wielding large swords, surrounded the thousand-meter-long light barrier in layers, forcibly pushing even the players out.

Ten thousand? One hundred thousand? One million?

There are too many to count!

He was quite shocked by the many players. "I thought you guys were just talking, but I didn't expect you to actually buy it!"

Waaaaah, my brothers really spent real money to get me the mystery pet egg, I'm so touched!

I can't hold back anymore, developers, please let me spend money on this!

Jiang Liu looked around at the massive number of Xuan Guards and was deeply moved. Just as he was about to spread his wings to escape the encirclement of the players, he saw two dazzling white lights walking towards him.

These were two young men in their early twenties who looked remarkably alike. Their outfits were dazzling and extremely luxurious, and the brilliant white light emanating from their bodies attracted attention, drawing gasps from those around them.

"This...this is a diamond-level 'Thank You for Your Contribution' halo!"

"My God! These two players have spent over ten million spirit stones each!"

"The biggest spender from the fourth district has appeared!"
