When the scene inside the box turned into the entire Soul Land, what kind of sight would that be? Everyone couldn't help but ponder this question simultaneously in their hearts.
The image that had just appeared on the big screen was etched deeply into their minds; the giant hand incited not only a terror of the soul but also a physical dread. And when the scene escalated to the Soul Land, which was several times larger than Tiandou Empire, everyone truly dared not imagine the chaos the hand would unleash.
Yet, strangely enough, because they knew the reason behind the "giant hand," there was a strong sense of anticipation to witness this hand again, especially since Senior Lin Yi was there to ensure their safety.
"He said it's possible, you try it!"
Gu Yuena excitedly said to Bi Ji.
Many had forgotten that this box was a Gold Intermediate reward with damage as high as over 800,000, a bona fide high-level award.
If it were just to imagine a scene, blowing air into it, sneezing, or moving one's hand around inside to tease the humans… that would be a complete waste of the reward.
The true purpose of this reward should be an extremely terrifying Apocalypse-level Tool.
Bi Ji chose to obey Gu Yuena's command; in fact, she had no thoughts about the box herself.
Squatting beside the box, Bi Ji closed her eyes, envisioning the entire Soul Land appearing inside the box. Gu Yuena looked down and saw a layer of white fog floating above the box, obscuring the view.
The appearance of new white fog seemed to signify that the scene inside the box was being updated.
After Bi Ji opened her eyes, the fog above the box thinned, and the scenery inside became even more blurred. At a glance, all one could see was a vast expanse of green land and a dense network of crisscrossing blue rivers, like earthworms lying on top.
Gu Yuena couldn't even distinguish where the boundary lines between Tiandou, Xingluo, and Soul City were, but she knew that the center of the box was definitely the location of Soul City.
Bi Ji knew what she had to do next, but it seemed she had not anticipated what would happen. She simply said leisurely, "Well then, I'm going to put my hand in."
As soon as Gu Yuena heard this, she immediately stood up. All around, people readied themselves, looking up into the sky, many of them excited and thrilled, about to face an experience they had never encountered before.
As soon as Bi Ji's hand entered the box, she felt a tremendous resistance.
If the resistance above Tiandou Empire had been like "glue," then the resistance above Soul Land was like "cement" that hadn't set yet.
Thankfully, this was only a resistance and did not prevent Bi Ji from controlling her hand movements.
As Bi Ji's hand moved down a bit more, piercing through the white fog, the entire Soul Land suddenly shook. The various soul beasts in the forest, seemingly startled, scampered in all directions, and everyone looked up into the sky.
They saw a massive finger, like Optimus Prime, moving downward, wrapped in a red-hot current of air. The whole sky resounded with thunderous noise, verging on deafening.
Bi Ji was startled by the sudden noise, and her hand involuntarily plummeted down a few notches.
"Boom!"
A loud noise erupted, and Soul City suddenly sank. Trees and buildings collapsed, and all the Gua Sha Masters present at the scene lay on the ground, bleeding from every orifice.
Only then did Bi Ji notice the giant hand in the sky—no… it could no longer be recognized as a hand.
An enormous red object, too big to make out its shape, was covering the sky and rapidly approaching the earth, darkening the light and sending rumbles through the sky.
Di Tian looked at the surrounding crowd, each person seemed to be under a Paralysis spell, unable to move. Most of the Gua Sha Masters lay on the ground, motionless, their fates unknown.
Di Tian then looked at Bi Ji and realized that the owner of the reward was completely unaffected. He was amazed, realizing that reward owners were immune to the effects.
As Gu Yuena swayed unsteadily, Di Tian fell to his knees with a thud, and the ground immediately sank again.
The entire Soul Land suddenly formed a funnel shape, with the altitude of the central Soul City area plummeting, buildings and the ground unrecognizable from before.
Gu Yuena could no longer hold herself up and dropped to one knee on the ground, her knee smashing the ground into cracks. She looked toward Lin Yi and noticed that only he and Bi Ji remained unscathed, as if the two were in a different space from everyone else.
"This is more like it..." Lin Yi surveyed the dim sky and the five red "Optimus Primes."
"What if... Bi Ji's finger touched the ground?"
Just as Lin Yi was admiring the landscape before him, he suddenly heard Gu Yuena struggle to squeeze out this sentence.
"Touched the ground? At that time, Soul City would turn into a pile of dust, remember, even one of her fingertips is equivalent to the entire area of Soul City now."
Gu Yuena struggled to lift her head and saw a fingertip, so large it seemed like the sun falling, enter her field of vision, and seemed to understand the scene Lin Yi described.
"Bi Ji, do you know the true use of this reward?"
Facing the immense pressure above her head, Gu Yuena spoke to Bi Ji, who was crouching like nothing was wrong.
Bi Ji: "What is it?"
Gu Yuena: "..."
Suddenly, she felt a sense of powerlessness from within.
Gu Yuena couldn't speak openly in front of Lin Yi and the others, so she could only hint broadly: "What do you think? What happened when you reached your hand in?"
Bi Ji looked around and then suddenly smiled at Gu Yuena: "I can make everyone perform a sleeping act!"
Gu Yuena's expression stiffened: "Okay, retract your hand."
She decided to give up on treating this goose.
Lin Yi: "Retract it gently, or else everyone here will get sucked up."
Bi Ji looked puzzled: "Why?"
Lin Yi: "When the entire Soul Land is placed in a box, you can think of this world as a sealed fish tank. Imagine what would happen to the fish tank if you put your hand in and then suddenly took it out?"
Bi Ji: "It would be missing a hand."
Lin Yi: "..."
Gu Yuena couldn't stand it any longer and interrupted: "The sediment at the bottom would be stirred up."
Lin Yi nodded: "Exactly."
Gu Yuena quickly said to Bi Ji: "Take it out slowly, slower than when you extended your hand, okay?"
After some difficult maneuvering, Bi Ji finally removed her hand from the box, and Lin Yi took the opportunity to use his System ability to restore the "shattered" Soul City back to its original state. Just as he was about to tend to the injured, he found the entire Soul City enveloped in a green-gold light.
It was Bi Ji; she had become so powerful that she could save everyone in the entire city and the healing effect did not weaken despite the increased area.
Lin Yi: "Start your second attack of the day."
