MMO: Pierce Heaven Til’ It Breaks

Wind, Fire, Water, Earth — Four Major Elemental Shrines were essential to the gods who used it to maintain the Pantheon Continent’s power. According to records, the Pantheon Continent would lose its balance in power if the Four Major Elemental Shrines were destroyed; and fall into a state of elemental chaos.

At that point, fire would fall from the skies instead of rain.

Places where oceans were may turn into deserts…

Air would only be in selected regions and no longer be everywhere. As for these other places, it would be in a vacuum state where living beings could not breathe in.

These prophecies were from the Ruler of God’s Warning to the World Transcript.

…

Li Yi did not know whether destroying the Four Major Elemental Shrines would inflict doomsday but he always found it strange that any introduction related to the Ruler of God would proclaim the Ruler of God as master of this world and an almighty existence. If that were the case, why leave behind that fear-inducing Ruler of God’s Warning to the World Transcript?

What secrets lie within?

Using the same method in Wind, Fire, Water, Earth — Four Major Elemental Shrines, Li Yi spent a day successfully ingesting Elemental Divine Power into the four Sealing Swords.

Aersith had been helping by his side. She could revive after death and although Li Yi was in the dark about the punishment she received, it seemed like it was not a severe issue from the state she was in. It only took a slight toll on her body.

By the time Li Yi managed to get the final Water Divine Sword filled up, a rainbow System announcement spammed the World Channel in blinding flickers.

[The Demonic Tribe crisis has finally dissolved with the Pantheon Continent’s hundred races, working as one. However, Pantheon finds the endless massacre unbearable. For the protection of world peace and Pantheon World order, the Ruler of God has personally spoken to choose 100 of the strongest among the hundred races to become gods in defending Pantheon World together.]

It was the official start to the God Wars qualifiers!

[A change is detected in the sky far in the West as a floating island emerged. A mysterious clan with majestic white wings descended from the island, launching a barbaric attack on all of Pantheon Continent…]

At the start of Wings of the Sky expansion pack, Level 200 Sky Island Instances were now open to the public!

The rainbow announcement flickered on the screen once every few minutes and it was not long before every player online saw it.

With God Wars qualifiers running, the most hectic Sky Island Instances in the history of Pantheon were also released.

These were the events Li Yi have been looking forward to!

“After more than five years, the gaming scene finally caught up with the past life’s progress. Judging by the time, the expansion pack’s a year faster compared to the past life.”

Li Yi mumbled as he checked the System announcement.

When the King of Pantheon was in its fifth year back in his past life, Li Yi had yet to gain the Emperor of the Night title but his reputation as a cheater had spread throughout the land.

[The Eastern Continent’s subjected to the Winged Ones’ Army raid. Heroes, please make haste to provide assistance!]

[The Southern Continent’s subjected to the Winged Ones’ Army raid. Heroes, please make haste to provide assistance!]

[The Western Continent’s subjected to the Winged Ones’ Army raid. Heroes, please make haste to provide assistance!]

[The Northern Continent’s subjected to the Winged Ones’ Army raid. Heroes, please make haste to provide assistance!]

Almost simultaneously, Winged Ones’ troops launched a large-scale attack on the four continents.

The number of Winged Ones that flew down from Sky Island was ridiculously excessive compared to the Demonic Army as a steady flow of them took flight in every direction.

In his past life, countless players died beneath their spears and bows at the beginning stage of the Wings of the Sky expansion pack.

The Winged One monsters were at Level 200 at the lowest and Level 300 at the highest. Moreover, because they were the gods’ favorites, they possessed special Divine Power capabilities despite not being gods.

Players realized Territory Power and the disparity between the weak and the strong was apparent when it was Territory against Territory. However, Territory Power was useless against the Winged Ones with Divine Power.

“Do not bother to resist, just try your best to avoid them.”

Li Yi sent a message to Chen Yang and Brother Windcloud Nine to warn them.

Endless reinforcements were called upon on the Winged Ones’ first assault over the Pantheon Continent. Crossing swords with such a powerful enemy would not end well, so it was best to stop resisting in order to cut losses.

There was a difference between the Winged Ones and Demonic Tribe approach to attacking a city. The Demonic Tribe was in favor of occupying and destroying a city while Winged Ones were only interested in a massacre. They only had a taste for fresh blood, so there were not many cases of them destroying or seizing a city.

The Demonic Tribe triumphed in terms of destruction but the Winged Ones were the biggest threat.

There was one more thing to the Winged Ones’ method of invading the city and that was their prolonged period of time in laying siege. It was normal to take over thirty to fifty days. Sometimes, it lasted two weeks while at other times, a month.

“Alright, thanks brother!”

“Understood, Brother Yi!”

The two Kings immediately sent their replies to Li Yi.

Chen Yang and Brother Windcloud Nine issued an order to cease fire nationwide which allowed the Winged Ones to do as they pleased.

This order naturally stirred outrage from many. Would they not be a pussy for not resisting or bothering to put up a fight?

Hence, people secretly gathered forces to try and put a stop to the ambushing Winged Ones’ Army.

With new equipment yet to be popularized to the masses at the early stages of the new expansion pack, what advantage did they have against the Winged Ones that were in possession of Divine Power?

Naturally, none!

Anywhere the fearless Winged Ones went were crowded with players’ corpses…

“Squawk squawk —”

“Squawk squawk —”

The world was filled with Winged Ones’ smug laughter. Today marked the day with the player’s highest death toll since King of Pantheon came into session.

With the fatality count substantially higher than one from waging a national war, many were in a daze facing these killers from the sky, especially from the ranged class. The players were shot to death by a cluster of random arrows before they could even attack or see their enemy.

“Motherf*cker, these Bird People are wrecking my balls. They killed me all seven times I revived. C*nt, they’re camping!”

“Me too, sh*t. There are at least ten Bird People circling me. I’ll die if I get up. My coordinates are 45566:56566. Any brothers with time on their hands, please assist me.”

“F*ck that shit, I can’t get up. I’m gonna temple respawn.”

“F*ck, I’m going offline.”

The World Channel was really active. The Winged Ones were highly intelligent. Not only did they attack players in groups, but they were also capable of spawn camping with patience that could put stubborn Old Green to shame.

“Brother Yi, our brothers can’t hold any longer. We’re about to lose every major city. Where do we hide? Dungeons?”

“Brother, it doesn’t seem right. These Bird People are too vicious, they are ganging up on Celestial Capital.”

Unable to endure the Winged Ones’ attacks, Chen Yang and Brother Windcloud Nine put out an SOS to Li Yi.

“There’s a place where we can completely avoid the Winged Ones’ attack,” Li Yi replied.

“Where?”

“What? Mount Pantheon!”

A rainbow world announcement made an appearance just as Li Yi spoke.

[Congratulations! Player, Dark Wing is the first to step foot into Mount Pantheon. 50 Hall of Fame Points obtained. This feat is recorded in Pantheon Hall of Fame.]

One of the Seven Secret Places, Mount Pantheon was discovered!
