Re-live your life and start speedrunning

"Because there are no absolutely strong people in this world, only relatively weak people, and there is no absolute freedom. As the saying goes, there are always people who are better than you. How can you be sure that you will not be the one being exploited in the new order you have established? Besides, the weak are not completely useless. Aren't you and I also weak?"

"Besides - my favorite thing to do is to go against others!" Li Re's words were casual but unwavering.

"Really?" The leader's eyes began to turn cold as he spoke. The excitement that was trembling all over his body disappeared, and the look he had towards Li Re also disappeared.

Instead, there was a strong murderous intent.

Yes,

Since it is impossible to win over Li Re, the only option is to kill him.

Just like the conversation just now, because of 'Ming Zun', before this operation really started, the leader had already conducted a detailed investigation on Li Re, the 'rising star' who had appeared in recent months. He had just stood on a high place and had been observing his every move in the city from a high position.

Therefore, the "leader" Zhang Ju was well aware of the terrifying nature of this young man nicknamed "Spiritual King".

So, if you can't conquer it.

The only option is to kill.

Otherwise...Li Re will definitely become a big threat to him!

"I thought that a true meeting between us would be more harmonious... Although it's a pity, since you can't understand my philosophy, since you can't understand my behavior, you even want to oppose me."

"Then I can only let you die along with the order of the old era!"

"Although I am surprised that you can come here and appear in front of me."

"But now, no one can stop me."

"Whether it's you, the ruler, or even the old man, it's the same!"

"Because now—"

"The real ceremony has begun!"

The leader's words exploded like thunder!

Extremely suddenly, the ground of the Demon City began to hum and vibrate. Standing on this high place, one could see that the ground was shaking violently in all directions as if the tide was rising and falling.

At the same time, the demon pillars scattered across the twelve areas of the Demon City were also moving!

The green fire flickers and the Dharma image stands tall.

With the help of Li Re, the captains who briefly gained stronger power firmly suppressed the Demon Pillar with the power of their own players, and suddenly it began to expand violently.

It's as if... it has grown by absorbing the power used by the captains for attack!

Everyone’s expressions changed slightly!

Li Re, who was standing on a high place and could see everything clearly, was also slightly stunned.

"Surprising, right?" Zhang Ju grinned, and said with a ferocious smile: "The Demon Pillar representing the dark side is like darkness, and has the characteristics of absorbing external energy to thrive and grow -"

"And right now, the Demon God Pillars you see are actually incomplete!"

"I've said before - the illegal players in Daxia are indeed a bunch of rubbish. They are not qualified to be the carriers of the Demon Pillar's arrival!"

"But waste has its uses! It can be used as bait!"

"So from the beginning, I didn't expect this ritual to be completed in one go, so from the beginning, I was tempting you to come and remove the Demon Pillar..."

"With your strength, I will allow the Demon Pillar to grow thoroughly!"

'Leader' Zhang Ju said in a low voice!

And as his words fell!

The twelve demon pillars could be seen flying up with the naked eye!

Chapter 281: Space, Immortality, and Myriad Bodies

At this moment, the magnificent and prosperous international metropolis 'Magic City' began to shake violently once again. The 'Demon Pillars' that had been suppressed by the 'captains' with the help of the fire ignited by Li Re and the 'Spirit King Dharma Image' standing behind them, rioted again!

At the same moment, the horrible creatures that looked like eyes and eggs suddenly rose up and expanded amidst the violent buzzing and vibration. They seemed like rapidly growing plants and trees, and also like a swarm of insects that were rapidly multiplying!

'Ordinary Man' Sun Li retreated again and again. He took off the newspaper on his face and saw countless gaps on it. The traces of insects gnawing instantly penetrated dozens of layers of spiritual power - taking away dozens of his 'lives'! In front of him, the Demon Pillar turned into a piece of paper visibly.

The power of the supernatural newspaper was devoured and taken away!

'Ice River' Leng Yu also looked solemnly at the Demon Pillar opposite that was gradually turning into ice crystals.

'Swift Wind' Sha Yun saw a strong wind coming towards her from the opposite side!

Pseudo-supernatural, superpowers, pseudo-myths, machinery, military... The special energies brought by the captains' player professions have all become nutrients for the growth of the Demon Pillars! They soared wildly, extending from tens or hundreds of meters to hundreds of meters in a blink of an eye, and they are still rising higher and higher, getting more and more intense!

The only ones whose power was not taken away were the mythical 'Little Sword Fairy' who had a higher energy level and the mysterious 'Silver Moon Knight' who was able to rival him.

But it is obviously not enough for only the two of them to persist!

In the midst of this upheaval,

The 'magic beasts' that swept in seemed to have received some instructions and began to become more ferocious.

The defense line formed by countless official players and civilian players was directly defeated.

The roars and screams that came one after another spread throughout the city in an instant.

The city that was still doing well in the last second fell into chaos and collapse again in an instant!

On the top floor of the Magic City Center Building, where the wind was still howling, Li Re, who was slightly startled, lowered his eyes and looked at the rapidly changing situation below him. He breathed a sigh of relief as if he had just come to his senses. He looked at the "leader" Zhang Ju, who was smiling at the success of his conspiracy. He thought to himself that he was worthy of being the "leader" - he could even regard the "Demon Pillar" itself as a chess piece and a lure! And the other party had indeed conducted a thorough investigation on him - the Demon Pillar only absorbed the power of the captains, but did not touch his spiritual power!

Although he felt surprised, he was not surprised. Without this little trick, it would be difficult to lead the illegal players in the country!

The sound of crackling appeared almost at the same time as the 'Demon Pillar' spread and flew upward... This was the sound of space collapse. As the 'Demon Pillar' grew stronger, the 'magic world' it was connected to got closer to reality, which caused the interlayer space of this world to be squeezed and crushed!

Under this crushing and breaking,

Any existence will inevitably die.

Any existence will be torn apart along with this space!

However, facing the sound of breaking, Li Re looked at Zhang Ju opposite him, and he thought to himself, so that's how it is... He thought to himself, it is indeed like this!

"Is your player profession an extremely special ability related to 'space'?"

He spoke suddenly.

Then Zhang Ju's rather ferocious smiling face paused and looked at him.

"You..." He opened his mouth as if he was somewhat surprised that Li Re was still thinking about this at this time.

Li Re exhaled lightly as if he was sorting out his thoughts and continued as if he had suddenly realized something at this moment: "I was actually thinking about it before - I was thinking about what ability allows you to bring your own consciousness to other people. I was thinking about why you can use the Demon Pillars so accurately, allowing them to descend and appear while also supporting the interlayer space of this world we are in at the moment - this ability to control the structure of space, although different from the exclusive copy, is already very similar! I am also thinking about what ability allows you to escape from the prison specially prepared for you in the imperial capital - according to the official records, even with Ming Zun's trickery, the prison you are in is located a thousand meters underground, and the distance between you is far away, and you have no chance of escaping at all."

"The ability you have demonstrated is not stated in your official records, and it is definitely not something that can be achieved by simply "high-speed movement" as recorded in the records."

“And now, I finally figured it out.”

"In fact, you didn't bring your consciousness into that person's body at all. You just 'exchanged' yourself with that person in the internal space. Otherwise, with my psychic eyes, I would have been able to trace the source of your consciousness. You didn't use the Demon Pillar at all. You just anchored a suitable position above the world layer... and then replaced it above the position where the Demon God descended!"

"Just like now, this mezzanine space is about to break, but you remain calm and not afraid at all—"

"Because your ability is actually space!"

“Because it’s a space, it’s only natural that the location can be replaced or changed.”

"Also because it is space, it is easy for you to anchor distance and position, so you can accurately know the distance between the magical world and reality."

"Because this is space, you can still change your location at any time at this moment - get out of here!"

"It's like you were trapped in the prison of the imperial capital on purpose!"

Yes, the leader before him was defeated by Qu Shenyin and the God of War three months ago, but if he really wanted to leave the prison, he would have left long ago.

He just got trapped on purpose!

——And as Li Re's last words fell, this mezzanine space above the Demon City, which was actually located between the reality and the upcoming copy world, suddenly became silent.

After the silence, the space was increasingly filled with the sound of fragmentation.

The leader Zhang Ju grinned again.

"You guy... As expected, you can't stay!" He said so, and his words undoubtedly admitted that Li Re's speculation was correct - just as Li Re said, the leader's ability records left in the files were indeed false, he has been deceiving those people... and has been deceiving the God of War.

Three months ago, he was caught on purpose!

The purpose is to truly show your fangs today!

next second.

The traces of the broken mezzanine space spread more and more, and dense black cracks appeared around it as if a mirror was torn.

next moment.

The dark crack was spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye, climbing towards Li Re who was standing in it!

Li Re had his hands hanging down, looking calm and composed - one could even say he looked disdainful.

Then the leader in front of him stretched out his hand. He whispered, "Actually, I was standing here waiting for the Ruler or the old man to come. This is a trap I prepared for them. But since you are here, it's the same - I can see that your ability is not much worse than that woman's."

"I know even more about the specialness of your abilities - just killing you here is not enough to kill you completely."

"So next..."

'Space Replacement'!

The 'space crack' that was spreading towards Zhang Ju suddenly disappeared.

The broken space was replaced.

Corresponding to this, the twelve extra 'selves' in Li Re's main consciousness sensed a sense of rupture in space as the cracks gradually spread!

no doubt.

The things that Zhang Ju's outstretched hand touched, the cracks formed by the disappearing space, were replaced and spread to every 'Li Re' who walked out of the Yin-Yang Road, starting with the Li Re in front of him!

That's a twelve-fold attack.

Too--

Twelve times death!

With a bang, the space in the mezzanine was completely shattered...Under the dim light from the top floor of the Magic City Center Building, countless broken and mottled lenses suddenly emerged. The lenses floated in the air and looked like flying feathers...Li Re's figure was shattered in it, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye!

It wasn't just Li Re who disappeared in front of the leader.

It also includes the 'Spirit King Dharma Image' that exists behind every 'Captain'!

When each of them retreated again and again in the face of the sudden change of the 'Demon Pillar', they were suddenly startled and felt their backs inexplicably heavy, and the invisible force quickly disappeared.

The spiritual fire flickered and died out like withered weeds.

Zhang Ju, however, remained motionless among the debris - his legs landed firmly on the real top floor of the building instead of being in the mezzanine space.

He looked up at the sky.

The ever-increasing Demon Pillar seemed to have grown to over a thousand meters as if it had already connected with the sky!

The sky, which had appeared blue and clear before, now showed distortion visibly to the naked eye.

A huge black shadow fell from above.

As if the sky is about to collapse——

There were strong winds, thunder, and the roar of wild beasts.

The world looks like the end of the world!

Countless people, whether official or civilian, ordinary people or players, were subconsciously frightened at this moment.

They are all afraid.

Fear of the real disaster that is about to fall!

"The power to break the old world order has arrived!"

Zhang Ju spoke in a low voice. He stood at the highest point in the city and opened his arms as if calling for something, saying: "I've said before, no one can stop me from reshaping this world!"

Whether it is the 'God of War',

Or 'Ruler'.

Or maybe the 'Spirit King'.

The ending is always the same - he felt so confidently!
