Chapter 677: The Mystic Realm Collapses, The Featherfolk Race

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The spatial structure had been disrupted by external forces, and there was no need to speculate—it was definitely the work of demons.

Ji Chen didn’t expect that the demons would actually be willing to use a realm that they had been managing for thousands of years, investing a significant amount of resources, to completely trap them. One could certainly not deny their determination.

Ignoring the demons’ murderous intent towards them, Ji Chen calmed himself down and spoke in a hurried tone.

“How much time is left before the realm completely collapses?”

“Squeak! (At most, there are only two hours left!)”

Although two hours were pressing, it didn’t mean there was no way to complete the evacuation. Augustus had already guided the civilians to gather together for refuge, and with people assembled, the final step of evacuation would be much easier.

As for the Ocean Pixies, not to mention, they had evacuated from their dwellings with minimal gear, ready to leave at any moment.

According to the speed at which the Kraken opened the spatial channel, they would only need half an hour to complete the evacuation!

At this point, Ji Chen felt somewhat reassured.

“Open the spatial channel now and get ready to leave.”

The Kraken nodded eagerly and raised its tentacle to draw, but there was no change in the air, just like an oar paddling through still water, and there was no sign of any transformation in the sky.

After a momentary pause, the Kraken realized something and cried out mournfully.

“Squeak!! (Master, something terrible is happening! The realm is now detaching from the main world and drifting towards the depths of the void. I can’t create a stable spatial channel between the two sides!)”

“An unstable spatial channel? What are the chances of success under the current circumstances?”

“With the current situation, one out of a hundred people might make it through, and that’s being optimistic.”

Ji Chen’s face darkened. What the heck? Was this a never-ending series of bad luck? One out of a hundred people making it through was no different from a death sentence.

Now, the realm was like a broken ship with a snapped anchor, being tossed about in a storm, and the surging seawater was pushing it towards the outside. Once it completely detached from the main world’s attachment, it would gradually collapse.

Everything within this realm would quickly disintegrate, becoming the most primitive energy and matter in the void.

Only epic-tier individuals above level seventy and a very few who could operate in the void races could briefly move around in the void. In other words, there was no one here who could survive exposure to the void.

The spatial fissures in the sky gradually became denser, forming a web-like pattern, resembling magnificent spiderwebs hanging in the sky.

Intermittent, eerie purple light seeped through the fissures, creating a visually striking but chilling scene that sent shivers down everyone’s spines.

No one wanted to venture into the void.

Ji Chen forced himself to remain calm and looked at the void ring on his left-hand finger.

This 7-star artifact ring, gifted to him by the elf Elin, not only allowed for short-distance spatial jumps but also possessed another powerful skill.

(Void Tunnel (Can create a brief, temporary void tunnel, passable by living creatures, with a 72-hour cooldown).

Although it was unclear whether this could create a stable channel between a collapsing realm and the main world, Ji Chen had no other options at the moment, so he had to take the risk.

He immediately activated the power of the ring, and a black-purple energy, resembling spatial fissures, surged from the ring, forming a rotating three-dimensional vortex that spanned dozens of meters in width and height before him.

As the vortex’s rotation gradually slowed and stabilized, a trace of satisfaction appeared on Ji Chen’s hopeful face—it worked!

Without hesitation, he shouted, “Augustus, Elwin, quickly have your people enter the void tunnel!”

He could clearly sense that this void tunnel could only be maintained for a maximum of one and a half hours, making time extremely tight.

Augustus and Elwin, realizing the gravity of the situation, immediately began organizing their respective people to enter the void tunnel. The efficiency of entry and exit through the tunnel, which was a dozen meters wide and high, was not very high.

To expedite the process as much as possible, Ji Chen had the Sea Crystal Wyrm carry dozens of Ocean Pixies into the upper half of the tunnel’s entrance. He also handled the Ocean Crown army like a baseball, tossing them directly into the tunnel. Although this approach might have seemed a bit hasty, there was no time to be overly cautious.

This operation significantly increased the success rate of passage.

In just an hour, more than half of the Ocean Pixies and Featherfolk were sent into the tunnel, and two-thirds of the Sea Crown Championship team also entered.

However, at this point, the spatial fragility of this realm had intensified. The “spiderwebs” in the sky had interconnected, forming a colossal web that spanned the heavens. The sky had plunged into complete darkness, with only the eerie purple light seeping through the fissures providing the only illumination for this world.

From within the light, a gentle breeze seemingly from the void began to blow, annihilating and assimilating everything it touched, transforming them into primal energy.

Ji Chen and his group witnessed the gradual collapse of this realm, which once contained an entire world.

Another twenty minutes passed, and except for Ji Chen and his companions, all the Ocean Pixies and Featherfolk had already entered the void tunnel.

Standing in front of the tunnel, Augustus and Elwin turned back to look at the realm that was heading towards its demise, as if they could hear its mournful cry.

In their eyes, a hint of reluctance and melancholy couldn’t help but surface. They had been multiplying and thriving in this place for generations, and now, in their generation, they had finally reached the end.

But after a moment of reluctance, they turned their heads around, their eyes filled with anticipation for the new world..
