The starting village suddenly descended into chaos.
The main force of countless interdimensional invaders descended from the sky like a dark cloud, covering the entire village.
The villagers' screams were deafening, mixed with the clanging of weapons, and the air was thick with tension and fear.
Lin Yi and Long Wu exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming with determination.
They had no time to think and quickly headed towards the valley where the elite monsters were lurking.
At the entrance to the valley, a thick aura of evil seemed to press down on their nerves as if it were a tangible force. Lin Yi frowned slightly, while Long Wu revealed a disdainful smile.
"Who do these monsters think they are? Watch how I teach them a lesson!" Long Wu waved his hands, transforming into a golden dragon. Golden light shone in the air, radiating a powerful aura.
Lin Yi nodded, took a deep breath, and instantly activated the skill [Time and Space Domination].
His figure became ethereal, moving through the valley like a ghost.
The elite monsters were completely unaware of his presence and continued to focus their attacks on Long Wu.
Lin Yi took a step and instantly appeared behind an elite monster, his sword piercing the monster's heart with lightning accuracy.
"Pfft!" Blood splattered everywhere, and the monster let out a shrill scream before collapsing to the ground.
Its body quickly transformed into a beam of light, scattering across the ground and dropping several rare pieces of equipment.
"That speed, that precision, it's insane!" The onlookers were filled with shock and envy.
Lin Yi did not stop. His figure flashed again, appearing next to another elite monster.
This time, he chose a more efficient method—using the [Time Freeze] skill to slow down the monster's time flow to almost a standstill.
The monster's movements became incredibly sluggish, as if it were stuck in a quagmire and completely unable to move.
"What kind of skill is that? It's amazing!" the players exclaimed in amazement.
Lin Yi sneered, and with another swing of his sword, easily cleaved the monster in two.
The monster's corpse turned into fragments, scattered all over the ground, and even more rare equipment and resources were scattered out.
Envy and jealousy gradually rose among the surrounding crowd, especially among Butcher Zhang.
Butcher Zhang's eyes widened, filled with sparks of jealousy.
He gritted his teeth and began to secretly plot.
He quickly found several players who were also jealous of Lin Yi, whispered a few words to them, and the group...
"That kid Lin Yi is too smug. We have to take care of him now!" Butcher Zhang said in a low voice, his eyes flashing with malice.
Several players nodded in agreement, and they quietly approached Lin Yi, preparing to launch a sneak attack.
Lin Yi's attention was entirely focused on dealing with the elite monsters, and he seemed unaware of their presence.
With a piercing scream, another elite monster fell to the ground, and a relaxed smile appeared on Lin Yi's face.
He was preparing to launch another attack when he suddenly felt an ominous chill behind him.
"Hmph, they're just asking for it!" Lin Yi turned around and used the [Time and Space Domination] skill again, adjusting the flow of time to an extremely fast speed, instantly appearing in front of the attacker.
"Everyone, retreat quickly!" Butcher Zhang shouted, but it was too late.
Lin Yi's fist struck out like lightning, directly knocking a player away.
The other players immediately realized something was wrong and tried to escape, but Lin Yi had already blocked their escape route.
"Go back to where you came from!" Lin Yi sneered, conjuring a white light in his hand that instantly knocked down several players who were trying to ambush him.
Envy and shock erupted once again among the surrounding crowd.
Lin Yi dealt with these attackers with ease, as if they were nothing more than dust he could pick up at will.
"This is absolutely awesome!" Long Wu patted Lin Yi on the shoulder and said with admiration.
Lin Yi smiled slightly and looked into the depths of the valley.
The corpses of elite monsters were piled up like mountains, and the rare equipment and resources they dropped glittered in the sunlight.
He took a deep breath, his resolve to achieve his goal strengthened.
However, Lin Yi had already noticed.
He used the [Time and Space Domination] skill again, and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
Lin Yi's lips curled into a mocking smile; he had long since noticed the clumsy performance of these "clowns."
With a thought, time seemed to be paused, and Zhang the Butcher and his companions remained frozen in place, like insects trapped in amber, unable to move.
"That's it? You think you can ambush me?" Lin Yi smiled contemptuously, walked up to Zhang the Butcher, and pinched his fat cheek. "Feels good, but it's a pity your brain isn't very good."
He flicked his finger, and a burst of energy shot out, relieving the time-space stagnation on the group.
Zhang the Butcher and his men instantly regained their mobility, only to find themselves frozen in place, as if struck by a spell, unable to move forward or backward.
“Here’s a piece of advice,” Lin Yi’s voice was as cold as ice, “Don’t mess with me, or… you’ll suffer the consequences.” He paused deliberately, his tone full of threat.
Zhang the butcher and the others were deathly pale, as if they had lost their parents.
They knew they had kicked a hornet's nest this time, and it was the kind reinforced with titanium alloy.
Lin Yi didn't bother to look at these clowns again and turned to walk towards the pile of elite monster corpses.
With a wave of his hand, he pocketed all the dropped equipment and resources, making the surrounding players extremely envious.
Upon seeing this, Butcher Zhang and the others felt as if they had been granted a pardon and fled the valley in a panic, fearing that Lin Yi might change his mind.
"A bunch of trash!" Long Wu spat, his face full of disdain. "But, Brother Yi, your 'time stop' move is really awesome, it's practically a cheat code!"
Lin Yi smiled mysteriously and patted Long Wu on the shoulder, "This is nothing, the real show is yet to come." His gaze pierced through the thick fog, falling deeper into the beginner village, where an even greater secret seemed to be hidden... "Let's go, Long Wu, let's go meet those even more powerful guys."
