Chapter 200: [Player Arrives, Heavenly Dao Collapse]

Translator: 549690339

The countdown on the forum reveals one hour left until the public beta testing.

It seems that many players have already stationed themselves there, all ready to enter the world of “Heavenly Dust” at the first possible moment.

As for Lu Xun, with a time flow rate of 10:1, he still needs to wait for ten hours.

“Considering the distance from here to Qingling City, I doubt ten hours would be enough to get there,” he estimated the time.

“Oh well, I’ll fly for now, simply observing things along the way. After all, today’s main goal is to witness the excitement,” Lu Xun chuckled, continuing to control his paper crane.

He flew and flew until the last hour before the public testing, when he stopped mid-air.

Because an anomaly has started to occur in the world.

First to start changing was the spiritual energy around him.

At this moment, the spiritual energy throughout the Heavenly Dust Continent seemed not as stable as usual and showed signs of disorder.

This made many cultivators, who were in the middle of their training, to stop their cultivation practices.

Disrupted spiritual energy can be harmful to practice; one misstep could lead to deviation.

Many cultivators wore serious expressions on their faces. This was undoubtedly a significant event that would impact the entire cultivation world!

If the spiritual energy remained in chaos, then the upcoming cultivation would become exceedingly difficult.

“What’s happening?”

A small scale disruption of spiritual energy was quite common, but the current situation seemed unlike before!

This situation concerned the future of all cultivators and not a soul could afford to ignore it.

Thankfully, this anomaly only lasted for an hour.

An hour later, the spiritual energy of Heavenly Dust Continent reverted back to its earlier stable state, with no signs of abnormality.

However, weird phenomena started emerging in the sky of the Heavenly Dust Continent!

Semi-transparent ripples began spreading across the sky from time to time, with vortexes like twists appearing in some spots.

Many airborne cultivators suddenly felt an immense pressure enveloping them, as if carrying a heavy burden, unable to bear this weight, they ceased flying and chose to land.

Lu Xun encountered the same issue, he controlled the paper crane, ensuring a smooth landing, and then looked towards the sky.

The omens before the players’ arrival, he certainly wouldn’t have had seen it in his past life.

Now, he was observing all this with a spectator’s mindset, only thinking… how spectacular!

“Compared to the inexplicable mass arrival of the foreign races, the signs before the players’ arrival seem quite impressive!” Lu Xun thought.

Time passed, second by second, the anomalies in the sky maintained and progressively worsened.

Eventually, the sky was torn apart!

Suddenly, an enormous hole appeared in the sky!

Across the entire Heavenly Dust Continent, anyone who looked upward could see this enormous black hole in the sky!

Lu Xun knew clearly, the scariest event known to the Heavenly Dust Continent, the Celestial Anomaly, was about to begin!

——The Heavenly Dao Collapse!

Inside the pitch-dark hole, a slow birth of thunder and lightning began, roaring and illuminating, followed by light.

This continued until the last minute before the arrival of the players. Suddenly, an intense light so dazzling emerged from the black hole!

“Hiss!” Lu Xun immediately lowered his head, closing his eyes, no longer daring to look directly at it.

Not just him, nearly everyone across the Heavenly Dust Continent were making similar actions.

In the Demon Sect’s main peak, Shen Yan and several other Peak Masters were gathered together, their faces solemn as they watched the large hole in the sky.

As the intense light started dazzling, these cultivators dwelling in the Seventh and Eighth Realms could no longer keep their eyes open!

Everyone, from ordinary people to cultivators, could hardly defend against this phenomenon.

It would be wrong to not mention the disciples of the Demon Sect felt the same way, even Shen Yan was no exception.

Ji Li, who was also gazing up at the sky, thought, “Such spectacle, I wonder if Lu Xun can see this from wherever he is.”

The moment the light emerged, she immediately lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly, feeling a piercing pain in her eyes.

In the backyard of Demon Sect, even the Second Senior Sister who was meditating on a large rock and the Third Senior Brother Zhuge Lai Fu, who was peeking out of the kitchen window, chose to close their eyes.

The heavenly phenomena, no one can defy!

On top of the back hill, a man dressed in a white robe, who looked like a middle-aged scholar, had been looking upwards the entire time.

Even in the face of such anomalies, he still managed to take a sip of hot tea.

The gentlemen took a sip from his teacup and continued to gaze at the sky, looking directly at the scene of Heavenly Dao Collapse, squinting slightly.

Time: Heavenly Dust Calendar 3999.

The countdown to public beta testing.

Ten, nine, eight… three, two, one!

Lu Xun, who had kept his eyes shut, opened them.

The dazzling light from before had completely dissipated. The giant black hole in the sky also disappeared as if nothing had happened.

This deeply shook the world of cultivators. Later, it was unknown who coined the term “Heavenly Dao Collapse” for today’s spectacle.

It was from this day onwards, in the eyes of the people on the Heavenly Dust Continent, many among them began changing…

In this world, a group of people had become different from us!

This group was then referred to as the Anomalies.

For some reason, no one speculated that they could be from another world, only that the Heavenly Dao Collapse led them to become different.

An invisible hand seemed to wield control over something.

It bestowed the players with the identity of being an Anomaly, rather than a foreign race.

When Lu Xun first transmigrated, he thought this place was just like the real world. But now, everything seemed as though it’s all a game.

Or perhaps… it’s a blend of both?

He couldn’t comprehend these at the moment.

At this point, prompt messages began to appear one after another before Lu Xun’s eyes.

“[Ding! The public testing has begun!]”

“[Welcome to Heavenly Dust version 1.0 – Heavenly Dao Collapse!]”

Lu Xun closed the pop-up notifications, opened the teacher-student interface and checked. His Sword-Serving Child, Mo Guanji and Han Bagui, under the listed apprentices, now show as online!

Just at this moment, players from all over the world had begun to arrive all across the Heavenly Dust Continent!

“The times have changed,” Lu Xun murmured softly.

In various places of the Heavenly Dust Continent, besides a few lucky players who had participated in the closed beta-test, the majority of the players were experiencing this world for the first time.

They looked around curiously from time to time, a few even jumped around.

Some were caressing nearby plants and trees, others were busy exploring own face and body, some even tried figuring out how many layers of clothes they could take off…

“It feels so real!” This was the first thought for most players.

“I’m vouching for this game! It’s too realistic!”

“Yeah! It doesn’t feel like I am a player, rather a transmigrator!”

“Other game companies might as well go bankrupt. How can they even compare to Heavenly Dust?”

Thousands of words could be boiled down to one sentence—— “This game, rocks!”

After a few minutes, some silly players were still obsessed with odd things, unable to extricate themselves, while some other players had already begun to take actions.

Many players who often checked the forum started thinking to themselves:

“I wonder if we’ll have the chance to see the legendary Purple Palace?”
