Chapter 433: The Players of the Fourth Calamity (Thirteen)

The Golden Lion Emperor felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
He felt utterly exposed.
Their supposedly invincible trap, their meticulously planned scheme,
was nothing but a self-deceptive, self-amusing illusion.
The Golden Lion Emperor had lost all his previous arrogance; now he had only one thought:
To demonstrate loyalty and thus survive.
"My lord, you're innocent... This was all just an excuse to appease the other reborn... I never intended to harm you!"
Su Chen remained unmoved, which chilled the Golden Lion Emperor to the bone.
"If you don't believe me, my lord, I can peel off my heart and show it to you. I am utterly loyal to you!"
"..."
Looking at the Golden Lion Emperor, desperately clinging to life, Su Chen waved his hand, causing the Golden Lion Emperor to close his eyes in despair.
Damn!
Hmm?
He doesn't seem to be dead.
"Relax your mind."
The Golden Lion Emperor obediently relaxed his mind.
He felt...all his secrets from childhood were laid bare before him. This feeling made him very uncomfortable, but for the sake of his life, he had to adapt.
"A restriction has been placed within your consciousness. If you try to resist...you should know the consequences."
The Golden Lion Emperor felt aggrieved, but thinking that this was better than death, he swallowed his resentment.
Thus, an invisible crisis was resolved with the entire Reborn Alliance's defection.
Su Chen could once again develop in peace.
......
Inside the Reborn Alliance.
After everyone's tireless efforts.
The Golden Lion Emperor looked at the other reborn individuals.
Today was the day they would begin their plan!
The Golden Lion Emperor looked at everyone, a cold smile playing on his lips.
"Foolish fools, I am already the Lord's man!"
Xu Fei looked at the crowd with disdain. "You think you can attack the Lord? Little do you know, the Lord already knows our plan. Once we act, I will be the Lord's greatest hero!"
The other reborn individuals also had flickering eyes, each harboring their own secrets.
This all created a strange atmosphere.
"Attack! The Federation's people have already been transferred!"
"The Heart of Destruction is ready!"
"Now, that person should have entered the 'Destiny' world, with no means of resistance."
"..."
The crowd looked at each other.
They stared at each other in bewilderment.
The stalemate didn't last long before someone broke in—it was Xiaoyaozi.
Xiaoyaozi looked at the crowd and said, "The master said you don't need to stay here any longer; you can leave."
Upon hearing this, the crowd immediately clasped their hands in a fist salute and replied, "Yes, sir!"
"......."
Xiaoyaozi glanced at the crowd and then left.
After Xiaoyaozi left, a chorus of voices rose and fell.
"You...you're also one of that master's men?"
"I've already pledged allegiance to that master."
"Traitor! You bunch of traitors!"
"Xu Fei, don't think I didn't see you bending over the fastest!"
"We're all on the same side; let's not hurt our harmony. I didn't expect you all to be as insightful as I am."
"......."
The crowd suddenly realized; they were all on their side after all.
"Then it's alright."
"Don't be afraid of being exposed."
However... at this moment, everyone else's gaze was fixed on the Golden Lion Emperor.
"Actually... I'm already one of the Lord's people."
"I also possess the Lord's blessing."
Seeing this, the Golden Lion Emperor no longer concealed anything.
"Fortunately, I made the right decision..."
The Golden Lion Emperor cursed inwardly. These guys were so spineless! They promised to fight the Great Demon King together.
If he hadn't knelt down quickly enough, he would have been betrayed by these guys long ago!
........
Regarding the fact that the Reborn Alliance was entirely composed of his own people, Su Chen didn't bother with their actions.
At this time, Su Chen was constantly grinding bosses to level up.
His level was rapidly increasing.
First Tribulation Ruler... Second Tribulation Ruler... Tenth Tribulation Ruler...
A thousand years had passed since he stepped into the core area of ​​the Federation.
In a mere thousand years, Su Chen, leveraging the resources of those reborn individuals, relentlessly slayed numerous bosses. His level surpassed the accumulation of tens of millions of years by others, reaching the Emperor level, equivalent to a Twentieth Tribulation Ruler.
Such a rapid advancement was simply terrifying.
This was the allure of the Fourth Calamity… With sufficient talent and strength, one could traverse a path that took others millions or even tens of millions of years in a very short time. Of course, there was a price to pay: the lack of a mental state commensurate with one's power. This resulted in the Fourth Calamity's strongest individuals, with only a few exceptions, being far weaker than their counterparts in the other realms who cultivated methodically.
Even the reborn individuals lacked the unwavering resolve to match Su Chen's, and even the thought of resistance was difficult to conceive… In their minds, Su Chen was simply too powerful, too powerful to be defeated.
However, now, it was too late for the reborn individuals to entertain the thought of resistance.
Su Chen gazed upon this ancient divine realm, a realm he had acquired that the Federation had struggled to conquer for millions of years. It was home to numerous powerful beings… the so-called game bosses among the players of the Fourth Calamity.
In this world, within a towering floating palace, a divine figure opened his eyes.
“Could it be that those extraterrestrial demons from ten thousand years ago are about to return?”
Shi Nian recalled the great war ten thousand years ago… countless powerful beings of the Hengyu Divine Realm perished, still recovering.
If it weren't for his abilities… perhaps the Hengyu Divine Realm would have been completely annihilated in that battle, even at a tremendous cost.
Before Shi Nian could ponder further, countless beings throughout the Hengyu Divine Realm suddenly heard the sound of something shattering.
The next moment, a storm swept across the entire Hengyu Divine Realm!
"How could the barrier to the divine realm have been breached so quickly?"
Shi Nian's eyes widened... Shouldn't the previous invasion by the extraterrestrial demons have involved opening a small passage, followed by a gradual probe?
Why did the barrier to the divine realm suddenly shatter?
