67: Ancient battlefield projection, dreamlike godhead
The anomalous zone appears normal on the surface.
However, there are special fluctuations inside, with obvious spacetime power fluctuations.
Lin Fan sent out a clone to scout ahead.
The scouting clone released a trace of spatial power, activating the fluctuating spacetime power, and instantly disappeared from the current space.
“The Fragmented Battlefield has another layer of space. I hope Red Leaf Immortal hasn't messed it up inside.”
Lin Fan sensed the scouting clone, confirmed that the scouting clone was still alive and well, and that they should be in the same location but in different spaces, making them invisible to each other.
He tried to summon the scouting clone back but encountered severe spatial obstruction, unable to summon it back across the void, or even dismiss it.
Given this situation, Lin Fan did not act rashly. Instead, he informed Lin Chen and Oriental Red Sleeve of the specific circumstances before deciding whether to enter the other layer of space.
Lin Chen naturally had no objections; he wasn't the main body, so any choice was fine.
Oriental Red Sleeve decided to trust Lin Fan, believing they would once again turn danger into safety and reap abundant rewards.
With a decision made, Lin Fan enveloped everyone with spatial power and entered the anomalous zone, passively teleporting to the other layer of space.
Everyone landed, startled by the scene before them.
They had directly descended onto a vibrant battlefield: frost-covered skeletal undead, mechanical beings with energy shields slaughtering all around, and giant insects spewing venom and gas.
The three factions were intertwined; besides their own kind, all were enemies. Various attacks mixed together, and lifeforms fell every moment, turning into corpses.
Everyone reacted quickly, immediately activating various defensive measures to avoid being caught in the crossfire of the three warring parties.
Within a few seconds, they discovered the problem.
This wasn't a real battlefield, but merely a battlefield Projection. Although they were in the same layered space, everything in the battlefield Projection could not affect Lin Chen and his group, nor could Lin Chen and his group affect the battlefield Projection.
Lin Chen and his group walked through the battlefield Projection, as if watching a live, realistic blockbuster movie.
Slaughter, slaughter, and still more slaughter.
The Undead, the Sentient Machines, and the Zerg poured countless armies into this meat grinder battlefield, with death occurring every moment.
The Undead could not utilize the corpses of the Sentient Machines and the Zerg.
The Sentient Machines also could not use the body parts of the Undead and the Zerg.
The Zerg could not digest the Undead, which carried the power of death, nor the cold, metallic components.
The three factions fought, relying solely on their own foundations. Whichever side ran out of reserves first would be eliminated.
The level of the three factions' natural disasters shouldn't be very high; otherwise, remnants shouldn't be left on the battlefield. In terms of resource utilization, natural disaster races should be the strongest, but this was not evident here at all.
They were only fighting and killing, with no concept of resource recycling. Their eyes were only on the enemy; everything was for the sake of killing the enemy and surviving to the end.
“Brother Chen, Hongxiu, I've discovered a problem: the three factions on the battlefield are not producing units. Their combat units appear out of thin air on the battlefield and then engage in a massive free-for-all, with only small-scale connections, as if there's no unified command.”
“It is indeed a very strange war.”
Lin Fan's observation was sharp, noticing some anomalies in this battle. Lin Chen and Oriental Red Sleeve also observed from this perspective and discovered more problems.
It was understandable that the Undead, with their lack of organization, would be scattered by the Sentient Machines and the Zerg.
However, the greatest problem was that the Sentient Machines and the Zerg had no unified command; fighting independently, they were merely at the level of super soldiers.
The core strengths of natural disaster races are three-fold: unified consciousness, mass production of troops, and high resource recycling rates.
However, the three factions present only exhibited the core point of mass production, with the other two points completely absent.
“Both of you, we are not here for archaeology. No matter how many conjectures we have about the war, it's better to find the treasure that maintains the war Projection. Maybe then we'll find the answers.”
“Hongxiu is right.”
“Dongfang, you've found the key point. We shouldn't waste time on such details.”
Everyone returned to the right track. They were here to find treasure; history, for them, was not important and did not affect their treasure hunting.
Based on the rank distribution of combat units dispatched by the three factions in the battlefield Projection, the group advanced towards the higher-ranked battlefield, attempting to find the core of the war.
The three factions erupted in war in this area, clearly having a target that could trigger such a war; otherwise, there would be no need for the three natural disaster races to waste their foundations like this.
Three hours later, the group crossed the Sixth Order to Tenth Order battlefields, then the Demigod Rank battlefield, and finally entered the Ascension to God rank battlefield.
The Ascension to God rank combat units of the Undead, Sentient Machines, and Zerg, like their other combat units, attacked each other without any communication, only engaging in exceptionally brilliant combat.
Hundreds of Ascension to God fought together, shattering the nearby space and causing energy to become chaotic, leading to the world's Void Incarnation. Only those of the Ascension to God rank could barely survive on this battlefield.
Fortunately, this was a Projection, so everyone didn't have to consider the aftermath of the battle. They could directly cross the battlefield and reach the innermost core position.
Effort pays off. The monotonous battlefield scene finally changed.
A spherical object emitting a silvery glow floated in the center of the Ascension to God battlefield. All battle repercussions within 300 kilometers of the sphere would be annihilated, unable to affect the sphere in the slightest.
“What do you think, could this be a treasure like a Divine Spark? Otherwise, it wouldn't cause a war at the Ascension to God level.”
As Lin Fan spoke, Lin Chen did not hesitate and immediately used the old dengs book to identify the information of the silver glowing sphere.
With the actual object in front of him, even if it was just a virtual Projection, God Rank Oldies items possessed a certain immortal characteristic across the timeline. Even as a Projection, it still held some immortal characteristics.
Item: Dream Divine Spark
Quality: Mid-Tier God
Description: A Divine Spark left behind after the demise of an unknown Dream-type Mid-Tier God. Currently in a spacetime Projection state, it does not possess the characteristics of the original Divine Spark, only containing accumulated Dream power from countless years.
Lin Fan and Oriental Red Sleeve looked at the treasure information projected by Lin Chen, not particularly surprised. After all, it wasn't a real Divine Spark, just a Projection Divine Spark that had accumulated a large amount of Dream power.
Moreover, acquiring this item would be very difficult for them.
“Brother Chen, I have no means of acquiring this Projection Divine Spark.”
“Neither do I. It's a Dream-type Divine Spark, entangled with a large amount of Dream power. Approaching it would lead to getting lost. I also have no way to acquire it.”
Lin Fan and Oriental Red Sleeve had no means whatsoever to acquire the Projection Divine Spark. They could only see if Lin Chen had any solutions.
Lin Chen naturally had no solution, but he had many powerful figures supporting him, so there was bound to be someone who could acquire the Projection Divine Spark, after all, it was a Divine Spark.
Even if it was a Projection Divine Spark, it was still a Divine Spark.
In the hands of a powerful figure who could turn the fake into real, this would be a true Divine Spark.
[Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood Chat Group 1853]
Lin Chen (Eighth Order Oldie): @Everyone, blah blah blah... [Image] jpg
Lin Chen (Eighth Order Oldie): Does any powerful figure know what to do?
The group fell silent for a moment, then messages started flooding in.
Red Thread Lord (Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood): Please, you must sell this treasure to me. I'll handle the acquisition. Three God Rank Oldies treasures guaranteed to increase all innate aptitudes by 5 points, one Ascension to God level all-purpose training room... one Ascension to God peak attack.
Meng Zhenren (Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood): @Lin Chen @Red Thread Lord, sell it to me. I can truly become a God with this. Red Thread Lord, you old geezer, don't mess things up. I'll add a Dream Treasure Vault on top of your offer.
Virtual Singer (Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood): @Lin Chen @Meng Zhenren, Meng Zhenren, you are still far from becoming a God. I am just one step away, and I can turn the fake into real. This Projection Divine Spark can only truly exert its effect in my hands.
There were only three Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood in the group who were Dream-type or related to Dream-type, so all three desperately hoped to buy the right to acquire the Projection Divine Spark from Lin Chen.
That's right, it was merely the right of acquisition, because only by acquiring the Projection Divine Spark in person could its effects be maximized. As for the other resources that came with the Projection Divine Spark, they wouldn't touch a single bit.
The others in the group weren't idle either. They were hotly discussing and estimating a suitable reserve price for the Projection Divine Spark. The prices offered by Red Thread Lord and the other two were also being calculated by a specialized God Rank Oldie for their value.
Anyway, this blade wasn't falling on them, so they were happy to see the three bleed heavily. If you want to become a God, how can you do it without shedding a layer of skin? After all, that was an opportunity to become a God prematurely.
Lin Chen (Eighth Order Oldie): @Red Thread Lord @Meng Zhenren @Virtual Singer, the three of you, I don't know who to sell it to. How about you come and see the specific situation of the Projection Divine Spark first? After all, through a screen, you can't see it clearly.
Red Thread Lord (Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood): Little God Rank Oldie, I'm a man of my word. I'll definitely give a high price.
Meng Zhenren (Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood): No problem.
Virtual Singer (Old Geezer Ascended to Godhood): Give me the coordinates, I'll be there soon.
Lin Chen opened his coordinates to the three God Rank Oldies, waiting for their arrival.
While waiting, he started chatting in the group, asking the God Rank Oldies what treasures would be good to acquire.
As a result, the financial backgrounds of Red Thread Lord, Meng Zhenren, and Virtual Singer were all dug up. The standard was only one: just demand 50% of their net worth.
Everyone was doing just fine at the Ascension to God rank, slowly becoming Gods over time. If you have an opportunity and want to sneak ahead, then we won't be happy. How can you do it without paying a price?
