Wang Yi laughed and turned to look at the fourth statue.
This was the last statue on the altar. It was strange, like a mosaic, as if assembled from building block particles. It was just a large lump, its form indiscernible, but it definitely wasn’t humanoid.
This statue didn’t speak either, but there was also a sacrificial vessel in front of it.
Wang Yi continued to place Green Demon Corpse Fragnts into the vessel, and just as he expected, a sacrifice progress bar appeared above the mosaic statue.
When the progress bar filled, a peculiar Round Pearl appeared before Wang Yi.
To Wang Yi’s astonishnt, it was actually an [Eco Tree Seed]!
"A seed of the Eco Tree? I can’t believe I got one here!"
Wang Yi couldn’t help but let his mind wander...
The first of the three previous statues was the Master of Xuanhuan, who could refine worlds with ten suns. The second was the Star Sea Emperor, who possessed the Star Sea Fleet. And the third was the Lord of Magic, who commanded the arcane and Magic.
This fourth statue, then, likely represented an Eco-Dominator.
Wang Yi suspected that this Starlight Altar might be displaying the four main Player paths in the Starry Sky: Mystic, Sci-Fi, Magic, and now, Ecology!
’I’ll worry about that later. In any case, this stage was an easy clear! Ti to head to the next station!’
Wang Yi wasted no ti, summoning everyone to the center of the altar where three exit portals—glowing spheres of light—had appeared.
[Exit 1: Leads to the Five-Star Station: Joy Beach in the Flower World. There, you can watch the Starry Sky God’s bikini show and participate in beach parties, surfing competitions, and coastal matchmaking events.]
[Exit 2: Leads to the Two-Star Station: the Cloud Summit Chessboard in the Summoning World. There, you can play a three-lane, tower-pushing, auto-battler-style war chess ga. Winning the ga rewards you with a Gold blind box.]
[Exit 3: Leads to the Four-Star Station: the Extre Daoist Academy in a certain Starry World. By joining the academy, you may have the opportunity to learn skills such as setting up a stall for fortune-telling and performing ritual magic.]
’Joy Beach in the Flower World, to watch the Starry Sky God’s bikini show? That actually sounds great! Too bad it’s in a Starry World—I don’t dare go there. And the Extre Daoist Academy is a no-go too! Let’s just head to the Two-Star Station this ti. A chance at a Gold blind box isn’t bad either...’
After making his decision, Wang Yi called for everyone to enter the second exit.
Instantly, Wang Yi felt as if he had arrived above a sea of clouds.
He stood amidst the clouds and mist. Looking down, he could see a square-shaped landmass with forests, hot springs, rivers, and what appeared to be Defense Towers and neutral monsters.
"Ding! You have arrived at the eighth station, the Cloud Summit Chessboard!"
"Ding! In this current space, please select one chess player to enter the field and engage in a war chess ga with the opposing chess player. Once the ga begins, the chess players themselves will lose all combat capabilities. Both sides will be positioned in the top-right and bottom-left corners of the battlefield map, respectively, and will start with five pieces: one Rook, one Knight, one Cannon, and two Pawns.
When a piece is played, it will transform into a corresponding soldier unit. Victory is determined by killing the opposing chess player.
Soldiers will automatically spawn in each side’s base on the ga map and continuously attack the enemy base along the top, middle, and bottom lanes. Chess piece units have a chance to obtain new pieces by killing neutral monsters, killing soldiers, or destroying enemy Defense Towers.
The chess player will have a minimap view, which displays information within the vision range of their allied units.
The winner will receive a Gold blind box as a reward."
"Ding! Please be aware: the chess players are fragile. Any attack from a piece or a soldier can eliminate a chess player. There is only one match. The losing player will be sent back to their original territory after the ga ends."
"Ding! Please dispatch a chess player to the field as soon as possible!"
"Ding! If you do not wish to participate in the war chess ga, you may exit the Corridor of Chaos through the entrance you ca from, or proceed to an exit to enter the next station! Please make your choice quickly. If no choice is made after 60 seconds, you will be considered to have forfeited the ga and will be imdiately sent back to your original territory."
Wang Yi listened to the system prompts while quickly surveying his surroundings.
He saw the players on the other side, standing across the void on another cluster of clouds. It was Tong Yuanhai and his group.
They were originally with Liang Xiaoyu, but now neither Liang Xiaoyu nor Li Ben were anywhere to be seen.
Wang Yi also noticed four spheres of light behind the clouds.
One was the portal he had just erged from. Returning through it would an leaving the Corridor of Chaos.
The other three spheres of light were the station exits.
’I have to pick a chess player to go,’ Wang Yi thought to himself. ’Yu’Er and I definitely can’t go. If we lose, we’ll be sent back. Wang Bushi and Hai Zhongxian can’t go either; they’re important combatants, so it wouldn’t be right for them to be sent back! Beruna only knows music, she’d definitely lose at chess. Pan Taiji probably doesn’t know how to play, right? I just wonder if Hu Miaosuan has a chance of winning... A Gold blind box is on the line, so we have to at least try.’
In the end, Wang Yi still decided to have Hu Miaosuan play.
In truth, he didn’t have much of a choice.
"A Dog Head Military Advisor is still a Military Advisor. It’s all up to you now. When in doubt, just drink. Got it?"
As Wang Yi spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and gave Hu Miaosuan a few punches and kicks. This was him using his No-Damage Attack to give him a refreshing jolt. After a few blows, the half-drunk, half-sober Hu Miaosuan was suddenly full of vigor, pounding his chest and guaranteeing victory.
At that very mont, Tong Yuanhai and the others on the opposite side were in a heated discussion.
Tong Yuanhai gazed in Wang Yi’s direction and said, "I can’t believe we’ve run into the Great Saint again. I wonder if he’ll play himself! We can’t match his combat power, but if it’s a ga of chess, we might not necessarily lose!"
Behind Tong Yuanhai stood 26 Players and several units hatched from Chaos Eggs.
In reality, his team had already lost quite a few mbers.
