[Scarlet bloodlight flooded over Sage Randall. Right before his death, his formerly dispirited expression changed completely. His eyes turned fanatical as he roared, You think that killing me will let you escape all of this?]

[No! You cannot change anything!]

[When the bloodlight faded, Sage Randall had already become a corpse on the ground.]

[You have defeated the Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Branch Association Sage. Experience has increased slightly.]

[You have obtained Small Fragment of World Wandering Spirit Essence x1.]

[Shell of the Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Branch Association Sage: Although the Multivision Association is overall weaker in wealth and power compared to the Direct Vision School, it has far more scholars. Sage Randall is one of the eight sages of the Multivision Branch Association. Compatibility: 119% (+65%).]

[Do you wish to possess this shell?]

Lin Xun heard Sage Randall’s final words and had a bad premonition in his heart. He immediately possessed the shell.

[You have possessed the shell of the Knowledge-Seeking Multivision Branch Association Sage!]

[The fragmented memories remaining in the shell gradually revive…]

[…]

[When that obedient and well-behaved female Grand Scholar of yours turned into a stranger of a warrior, you understood that this person was precisely the True God’s Envoy the association wanted to find.]

[The True God’s Envoy arrived far faster than you had imagined. You originally thought that only after the news spread for a day or two, or simply at the grand banquet three days later, would the True God’s Envoy arrive.]

[You never expected the envoy to turn into the plaything you were toying with, lurking inside the association…]

[While conversing with the envoy, you secretly transmitted a message to the Association President Great Sage, informing him that the True God’s Envoy had already arrived.]

[However, it takes a long preparation time to activate the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation, and you must stall the True God’s Envoy.]

[You had already made the resolve to sacrifice yourself. Compared to the great vision of awakening the true Lord, your life was insignificant…]

[…]

[Just as you were feeling the memories left behind in the shell, an extremely dangerous feeling surged into your heart!]

[You immediately interrupt the revival of the shell’s memories and first face the sudden, immense sense of crisis!]

[You see that on all four walls of the office, including the ceiling above your head and the floor beneath your feet, pairs upon pairs of gigantic eyes are appearing!] 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

[These eyes are not physical. They are monstrous eyes formed of light and shadow. Countless strange eyes look as if they have been carved into the walls as murals, and yet they are murals that can move and blink.]

[As one of the eight sages of the Branch Association, you of course know that this is the association’s Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation!]

[The Branch Association does not have the financial resources to construct the Knowledge Sea Magic Formation. That kind of magic formation requires many precious materials to serve as reserve energy, and costs an enormous amount of funds.]

[But this does not mean that there are no powerful magic formations inside the Multivision Association!]

[The Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation does not need a series of magic materials as its energy source, because its source of power is the many scholars within the association itself!]

[This magic formation can mobilize the mana of all scholars in the association to jointly construct an incomparably powerful formation!]

[Although it takes a long preparation time to activate the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation, once it is successfully initiated, it is equivalent to gathering together the combined strength of all scholars in the entire association.]

[Even if the Direct Vision Great Sage were inside the magic formation, he would still be unable to resist the combined power of the eight sages, one Great Sage, and the thousands of scholars within the association!]

[At this moment, more and more monstrous eyes are appearing on the walls. This indicates that the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation is already in its final stage of preparation and is about to activate!]

[You immediately pull open the office door, only to see that the corridor is completely empty and silent, without a single scholar in sight.]

[Only a countless, densely packed mass of monstrous eyes continues to emerge from the walls, increasing in number…]

[You know that all the scholars in the association have already gathered together while you were speaking with Sage Randall, combining their strength to activate the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation…]

[You look toward the glass windows on one side of the corridor, immediately raise your staff, and leap toward the outside through the window!]

[Just as you are about to smash through the glass and escape into the outside world, a gigantic monstrous eye appears upon the glass window, causing that thin layer of glass to become as hard as an iron wall.]

[You are blocked by the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation and cannot escape from the Multivision Branch Association!]

[You immediately switch to the shell of the Desire Primordial Fire Child of Evil!]

[You take a deep breath and fiercely swing the Scarlet King’s Sword…]

[You do not slash toward the glass window, but instead hack at the solid wall beside the window!]

[Before your terrifying strength, there is no difference between glass and wall.]

[As the bloodlight erupts, yet another gigantic monstrous eye appears before your sword edge, blocking your attack.]

[The bloodlight only causes faint ripples to appear on the light-and-shadow of the monstrous eye, but it is completely unable to break through the barrier of the magic formation…]

[You know that you are already doomed!]

[During the preparation stage of the magic formation, the entire Multivision Branch Association building has already become a cage, a terrifying cage from which even death cannot escape!]

[Once the magic formation is fully activated, you will enter the deep illusion constructed by the formation and face the terrifying monster that gathers the mana of all scholars in the association: the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Giant!]

[The more scholars gather inside the association, the stronger the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Giant will become.]

[Unless you possess a power capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with the gods, you absolutely cannot contend against the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Giant.]

[Even if you exhaust all your power to kill the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Giant, as long as the scholars in the association have not drained their mana, that terrifying giant can keep reviving.]

[And you will be forever sunk within the illusion…]

[This is the true terror of the Thousand Sights Hundred Eyes Formation!]

“Damn! These scholars are such sly thieves!”

“And they still talk about being an allied faction of my side. There is not a single decent person in either the Direct Vision School or the Multivision School!”

If one said that the Direct Vision School wanted to control him and confine his freedom of movement because the Direct Vision Great Prophet had foretold that the envoy was the source of the world’s destruction, then Lin Xun could understand the Direct Vision School’s methods.

But he really could not understand why the Multivision School also had to deal with him.

The Multivision Great Prophet’s prophecy had clearly and firmly stated that the envoy was the Savior. Unless the content of the Multivision Great Prophet’s prophecy was not what he had been told at all.

Lin Xun’s eyes turned cold. “Since you are not an allied faction, then do not blame me for being ruthless!”

He opened the Inventory and clicked on the Ring of Shining Stars.

Although the Radiant Stars faction was chasing him out of hatred, their attitude of coming whenever summoned was even more enthusiastic than that of an allied faction.

[You have equipped the Ring of Shining Stars (Special Equipment)!]

[The ring erupts with resplendent brilliance. That starlight-like radiance seems able to pierce through all obstructions and reach straight into the skies above!]

[You have attracted the gaze of a certain great existence from the Oath of the Radiant Stars faction!]

[Because your hatred value and hostility value toward this Oath faction are extremely high, this faction will dispatch…]

[Due to unknown reasons, this faction has not dispatched a powerful existence to hunt you.]

[The brilliant starlight erupting from the ring in your hand instantly goes out, turning back into an ordinary ring.]

“Eh?”
