"Ding... Welcome to The Intertwining of Destruction and Abundance: Phantylia's Aesthetics. The instance is being set up. Please wait 30 seconds. We are arranging for you and your team to enter the instance."
The elegant and pleasant system prompt sounded in Stelle's ears. Qingque and the others waited silently for the countdown. When the crisp sound faded, Phantylia's playful voice echoed in everyone's ears...
"I had intended for the Luofu to fall during the internal strife to showcase my aesthetics of destruction..."
"However, now that things have come to this, I can only use this noble body blessed by Abundance to bestow upon you an equal destruction!"
Phantylia's voice dissipated, and the scene before everyone gradually blurred.
After the four of them regained their senses, the past Luofu Rebellion appeared before their eyes once again.
Seeing the streets filled with Abundance monstrosities once more, along with the Cloud Knights fallen into the Mara-Struck state, Qingque and Bailu, the two native residents of the Xianzhou, fell silent for a moment and sighed with a touch of sadness.
"March, just clear them all out."
After Bailu accepted Dan Heng's High Elder inheritance, her entire mindset seemed to have matured. Facing such a cruel scene again, she spoke decisively.
"Leave it to me."
March 7th nodded slightly, and an ice arrow appeared out of thin air on her bow: "Time for the Ice-Engraved Arrow Rain!"
Turning an Ultimate into a Basic ATK—this was March 7th's progress!
The rain of arrows across the sky split and proliferated as it fell. At the arrowheads, mandalas made of ice crystals bloomed, with frozen seven-colored rainbow light circulating on the petals.
The torrent of ice arrows submerged everything.
"March's skills feel like they're getting more and more flashy."
Stelle frowned slightly. Why were the skill effects of her own Astral Express Crew getting stronger and stronger? Wouldn't that overshadow her own protagonist aura?
Could it be that she wasn't the protagonist, but a background NPC?
"Stelle, don't zone out, the team fight has started!"
"The legendary Sword Champion of the Luofu, Jingliu, is here. Buck up!"
Under the moonlight, the beauty danced with her sword.
Her silvery-white long hair was tied up high, cascading like magnificent silk in the wind. The white-haired beauty, her eyes covered by a black veil, held a long sword that resembled cold ice and glaze, pointing directly at the four of them.
The cold blade and the bone-chillingly fierce sword intent were enough to instantly freeze an ordinary planet. This was a beautiful swordswoman who seemed to have crawled out of the Avici Hell!
"Such a beauty with such a unique temperament has actually fallen into the Mara-Struck state. It's such a pity!"
Stelle said regretfully while drawing her signature baseball bat.
"Let me, with this rule-breaking strike, wake you up!"
"Ephemeral Flowers, Life and Death."
Jingliu whispered. Responding to the Galactic Baseballer was a dreamlike strike from the former Sword Champion of the Luofu.
"A River of Dreams pours down!"
An entire "river of possibilities" compressed into a blade edge directly enveloped the four little ones.
Wherever the sword light flowed, all things simultaneously presented both the sword intent of life and death. The myriad phenomena were all like ephemeral flowers, condensing ten thousand years of time into a single instant!
Games care about the cost of special effects, but reality doesn't!
The real-life Sword Champion of the Luofu, Jingliu, is a massive killing machine if an Envoy doesn't appear!
"Stelle!"
She hadn't expected Jingliu to be this terrifying before even encountering the final boss. March 7th didn't have time to rescue Stelle, who had lunged forward, and fired thirteen consecutive arrows in an attempt to freeze Jingliu's sword technique.
However, March 7th, even going all out, only delayed Jingliu's sword technique for a moment before being submerged by the torrent of swords!
"Azure Dragon's annihilation!"
As the Vidyadhara High Elder, holding the inheritance of the Azure Dragon, Bailu's voice was no longer soft and cute, but carried the vast majesty unique to the Azure Dragon.
The phantom of the Azure Dragon flashed by, instantly pulling out Stelle, who had almost been traumatized.
"Very good, that's exactly how it should be. A sword drawn knows no regrets!"
Jingliu's voice seemed to become excited. With one sword strike after another, her sword intent grew heavier and heavier, almost crushing the heavens and the earth.
"Qingque! Why is this Jingliu so strong?"
The group forcibly withstood Jingliu's wave after wave of attacks. March 7th screamed with a twitching eye. Qingque—right, where was Qingque?
Thinking of this, March 7th turned her little head and discovered that this guy Qingque was actually acting as if she were on an outing, her posture leisurely and carefree, toying with her diheng jade in her hand. March 7th almost fainted from anger.
"Qingque, what are you doing!"
"Alright, alright, don't rush. I've already finished."
In the midst of battle, Qingque's demeanor seemed to have changed unconsciously. Her soft long hair obscured Qingque's youthful face amidst the dazzling sword light, leaving only those eyes that suggested everything was under control...
At this moment, Jingliu's sword intent came to an abrupt halt.
It turned out that, at some unknown point, nine pieces of diheng jade, wrapped in lines of runic code, had appeared in the nine-palace positions around her.
The runes on these nine pieces of diheng jade linked and combined with each other, and a massive force of confinement and suppression directly pinned Jingliu in place.
Approaching the former Sword Champion of the Luofu, Qingque's lips curled slightly, and she whispered with a mischievous smile in the beautiful swordswoman's ear: "I'm sorry, Miss Jingliu, but please stay here for a while longer."
"Your swordsmanship is beautiful. I hope that next time, in reality, I can savor such intoxicating swordsmanship again..."
That's right, no one knew.
Back then, during the Luofu Rebellion, after Jingliu defeated Yanqing, she had encountered Qingque.
And then...
That time, just like this time, Jingliu was locked down by Qingque for a full ten-plus minutes!
It must be said that under the subtle cultivation of the ever-calculating Divine Guard General Jing Yuan, our Miss Qingque is indeed a bit excessively strong.
Or rather, perhaps even our Divine Foresight General doesn't know just how strong Qingque has become at this moment...
"As expected of you, Qingque!"
"How are you all so cool!"
March 7th, Stelle, and Bailu did not look surprised at the current Qingque, who was vastly different from the slacker on the Xianzhou they saw every day.
They had all witnessed this version of Super Qingque during the Luofu Rebellion.
It must be said, it's just... too strong, Qingque!
...
Unlike the three little ones who were unfazed, the Divine Foresight General, who was observing from outside the instance, was staring at Qingque's current appearance with his jaw dropped.
Was this still the slacker Qingque he knew from day to day?
With a light and casual touch, she displayed her peerless elegance.
Although his master's state was poor and her mind deranged, her strength was undoubtedly unquestionable.
Yet, she had been easily subdued by Qingque!
"Actually..."
Jing Yuan inwardly gasped, "She actually managed to cleanly and decisively subdue my master while she was in a deranged state..."
"Ms. Himeko, are you sure the Jingliu in the game instance is a one-to-one replica?"
Seeing the group in the instance pass the Jingliu level and continue toward the next stage, Jing Yuan hurriedly asked.
