Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 314 - 288: Time Stop in Reality, Crisis Averted (Two in One)_2

On the other hand, the Abyss Ring was the only item that Qin Chuan couldn't use in reality.

An instance and the Heavenly Dome Rank shared the same origin, and it would be much easier to replace the environment in an instance with that of the Abyss, but the real world was a material world, and it was not something a mere red equipment could achieve.

Because of these two reasons, Qin Chuan hadn't paid much attention to this item before today.

But after his battle with Mirajel, he had some new ideas.

The Roaring Arena was Mirajel's most important piece of equipment. It could draw both friends and foes into the arena, where only one person could leave alive.

Moreover, the environment inside the arena was the same as the Heavenly Dome Rank.

So there, Qin Chuan could use Time Stop.

This piqued Qin Chuan's great interest.

If the Abyss Ring could achieve a similar effect, by simply creating an Abyss environment in reality, he would then be able to use Time Stop in reality.

If red items were not enough, what about golden ones?

With that thought, a small bottle filled with swirling golden liquid appeared in Qin Chuan's hand.

[[Gold] Dwarf Demon Crafting Essence: The concentrated essence of the Dwarf Demon Clan's creative power. Use it on any red equipment to upgrade the item to gold.]

After slaying Mirajel, Qin Chuan did not acquire the Roaring Arena or any other item, but he got this.

Originally planning to use it to further enhance his Dragon Slayer Blade, Qin Chuan now had a new idea.

He opened the small bottle, and the golden liquid dripped onto the Abyss Ring. The ring blazed with a ghostly light, as if a black hole instantly devoured the golden liquid.

Moments later, dark golden patterns emerged on the Abyss Ring, and its texture was much stronger than before.

[[Gold] Abyss Ring: Temporarily transform a large area into an Abyss environment.]

The description was the same as before.

But as the totally new Abyss Ring rested on his finger, Qin Chuan could feel it was entirely different.

With a casual raise of his hand, dark power instantly shrouded everything around him.

Looking at the Time Stop in front of him, Qin Chuan smiled.

Indeed, just as he expected.

The gold-quality Abyss Ring could now alter the environment in reality to some extent, and his limitation of not being able to use Time Stop in reality had disappeared completely.

"Holy shit! Why is it so dark?!"

"Our connection to the signal station is cut off!!!"

The exclamations of the drivers in the front brought Qin Chuan back to his senses.

"Ah, my apologies, I was just testing a new ability." Qin Chuan said with an awkward smile, retracting his power, and received a resentful look from the driver.

-----------------

"Boom!!!"

Less than ten minutes after arriving, the battle within the A-Class undead tomb instance was drawing to a close between a fiery silhouette and another figure shrouded in sinister, eerie aura.

"It's over," Lin Yue said calmly, looking at the figure whose energy had plummeted. Her right leg burned with blazing flames, merging with the surrounding fire, "This is already your fourth failed attempt at breaking through to the Mythical Rank."

"Damn Sfin Gard, really screwed me over…" the would-be member of the Dead Ghost Clan and former Mythical Rank powerhouse let out a low growl of unwillingness, "I, Spirit Corpse Lord·Solei, am being forced into such a state by an ant not even of Mythical stature!"

The last time he returned to this world, Sfin Gard sought him out. Due to past ties, he trusted the other deeply, holding back his realm, and waited outside an not-yet-activated instance, until the moment the instance passage would open.

Solei got what he wished for, but things were far from as smooth as anticipated.

Not only did Blue Star's Human Race lock down the passage entrance right away, they even sent a guy whose strength was on par with his.

Shit! This was nothing like what Sfin Gard had described!

Being pushed back into the passage by the female human before him, Solei realized that sneaking into the Human Race's world and meeting with Sfin Gard soundlessly had become a pipe dream.

Furthermore, once this female human stepped into the passage, nearly all his attacks would miss due to various hair-raising coincidences, before they could even reach her.

Realizing how tricky his opponent was, Solei didn't hesitate to attempt a breakthrough.

By breaking through to the Mythical Rank, all else would be mere illusion under the crushing weight of absolute power!

Then, he found himself bewildered as he failed.

Not a single breakthrough failure, but multiple attempts to break through to the Mythical Rank all ended in failure.

"Bear!!!"

A low, roaring flame burst resounded, and as he watched the leg whip magnify rapidly in his line of sight, Solei muttered to himself, "I can't accept this..."

"Boom!!!"

The whip kick struck Solei directly in the face, and in the next instant, a terrifying blaze erupted at the point of impact, engulfing Solei's body with raging, ultra-high temperatures, reducing him to ashes. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

Spirit Descent·Burning Tail Flame effect: The fiery leg is filled with intensely concentrated flames, inflicting an additional 200% damage on direct hits to the target.

Standing in place, Lin Yue's surrounding flames slowly dissipated as she listened to the echoes of cheering in her mind, a slight smile spreading across her lips.

As if sensing something, Lin Yue turned her head to look at a stone that appeared no different from an ordinary one nearby, stepped forward to pick it up, and crushed it.

In the next moment, the instance passageway collapsed.

-----------------

When Qin Chuan returned to Special Affairs Group Headquarters and saw Lin Yue again, 6 B-rank instances that had arisen had already been attended to by Hall Level Transcendents on the scene.

Despite their best efforts, there were still many that slipped through the net.

A large number of Hall-Rankers, seven Epic-Rank and two Legend-Rank creatures had stepped out of the instance portals and entered Blue Star before the others could arrive.

Fortunately, none of them managed to escape the lock-on from Heaven's Watch.

Including Qin Chuan and Lin Yue, numerous high-rank Transcendents were dispatched, sparking a chase and encirclement battle across all of Blue Star.

An hour later, the last 4 B-rank instance passageways that had emerged were destroyed by the high-rank Transcendents who had freed up from the first three rounds of encirclement, leaving no stragglers.

By 11:30 at night, only a small fraction of the Hall-Rank creatures were still in hiding, while the Epic-Rank and Legend-Rank creatures had all been vanquished.

During the six-hour-long disaster, Blue Star saw over ten thousand deaths, hundreds of thousands of serious injuries, and high triple-digit casualties among players of Elite Rank and above.

It was a victory, but a tragic one.

When the final results were made public, the Transcendents around the world fell silent.

Though they had known instances could bring disaster, it was not until everything truly unfolded before their eyes that many truly realized this.

"You're saying the progress in clearing low-level instances increased nearly twofold?"

Hearing the voice at the other end of the phone, a hint of surprise appeared on Qin Chuan's face.

"Yes." Feng Yin chuckled lightly, "This disaster may have caused us heavy losses, but we also gained something in return."

The number of instances yet to be cleared had already surpassed 100,000 and was still growing. With so many instances, it was no longer something that official Transcendents could handle alone.

Instances below A-rank, even those graded SSS, could not increase the number of clearance attempts, yet they were the absolute majority of all uncleared instances, accounting for more than 99%.

This meant that only if all of Blue Star's Transcendents worked together with one heart could there be hope to clear such an enormous number of lower-rank instances.

Until today, this had always been a headache for all parties.

Although clearing instances could lead to rewards, instances were also fraught with danger, and this was different from the Dream World – death in an instance meant real death, deterring many capable individuals from trying.

Now, something was quietly changing.

Hanging up the phone and breathing in the salty sea air, Qin Chuan's face still bore a trace of a smile.

"So this is where you lived before?"

Standing on the coastal rocks, Lin Yue turned her head to look.

Shrouded in moonlight, the girl's slender figure radiated an elusive beauty. Looking at the pretty face so close by, Qin Chuan's heart felt a measure of peace.

"That's right, this is Zengmu Ansha," Qin Chuan said with a smile, "We won't make it back to Yanjing tonight, so we'll rest here for the evening and head back tomorrow."

"Mhm..." Lin Yue nodded lightly, her teeth biting her lip, a hint of shyness barely noticeable in the moonlit night, "But why is there only one room?"

"Uh...it must be because of limited rooms," Qin Chuan's heart rate suddenly quickened.

Whoever arranged this, he could only say well done!
