An indescribable sound echoed continuously in the Black Tide.

It was as if the chains entwined around the flesh of a giant beast were being broken one after another, and the layers of restrictions on the Black Tide were shattered.

The swirling dark mist instantly expanded several times over, rising into the sky like a black mushroom cloud that covered the sun.

The thick black mist was no longer mere energy; it seemed to transform into a tangible darkness, spreading madly from the center of the Tower, each wisp of fog greedily devouring the surrounding light and life.

The Earth Thought Evil Spirit opened its eyes at this moment, severing the connection with the Evil Eye before landing on the Tower platform.

A hint of a smile appeared in its cold gaze.

It successfully completed the Black Tide Level breakthrough, able to generate Evil Spirit Soldiers of the fifth palace without compressing Black Tide Energy, greatly enhancing its power.

Just then, the Evil Eye spoke, interrupting its thoughts:

"Earth Thought, there's good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

"Who taught you to talk like that?"

The Evil Eye blinked upon hearing this:

"Learned from the Player's Book, saying it like this creates anticipation and suspense, and can bring a certain tension."

Earth Thought did not respond and said solemnly:

"No surprises, the bad news is that the Player Clan has come again, but I'm curious about the good news?"

"The good news is that the lateral expansion plan you trained in the Evil Moon Domain of the Blue-Skinned Evil Eye has found a place to be used, and the tested soldiers can now be put into actual combat."

Earth Thought Evil Spirit:...

"You think you're quite humorous?" Earth Thought Evil Spirit's forehead veins throbbed.

The Evil Eye did not answer, revealing a hint of unease, then actively connected to provide the Earth Thought Evil Spirit with a Perception View.

Instantly, the image of the approaching players appeared in the Earth Thought Evil Spirit's eyes.

It could basically be confirmed that these were the players who had engaged in combat with it in the Evil Moon Domain.

Fortunately, the players did not enter war mode, and their numbers were insufficient to be feared.

In a flash of thought, the Black Tide generated Evil Spirit Soldiers for the fifth palace, actively sweeping towards the incoming horde of players.

While engaging with players, it began to ponder one question: how to choose the next developmental direction.

The appearance of the Player Clan meant it had to initiate a rampant development mode, but prioritizing which direction was crucial.

"Evil Eye, I need you to provide me with a more extensive view."

The Evil Eye instantly understood the Earth Thought Evil Spirit's idea, consuming Black Tide Energy to extend the Perception View towards both the east and west directions.

There were four main investigative contents.

They were the resources of the race's life, Spiritual Ore Resources, Spirit Plant Resources, and Domain Nodes.

These were all resource types capable of fostering the growth of the Black Tide, and the filtering process involved assessing the resource reserves provided from both east and west aspects.

As for the strength of hostile forces, it was not within the core considerations.

As long as it wasn't an overwhelmingly crushing force capable of defeating it in no time, the possibility of defeat did not exist.

During exploration, the Evil Eye suddenly inquired out of curiosity:

"Earth Thought, I'm curious about what the final project in the Abyss simulation assessment was?"

Facing the inquiry, the Earth Thought Evil Spirit's Perception View continued to explore outwards without replying, as a memory unfolded in its mind for the Evil Eye to read.

Within the memory image, the Black Tide resembled an Ancient Beast insatiably consuming the myriad resources of the Big World with unfathomable greed, each feast of Taotie leading to unimaginable growth and metamorphosis of the Black Tide.

The vigorous life force released from countless vibrant beings twisted and melded within the dark mist, like the finest fuel igniting the devouring engine deep within the Black Tide.

During this time, the dark mist churned furiously, akin to boiling ink, as the once relatively calm edge of the Black Tide expanded wildly outward, forming waves like black tentacles each capable of crushing mountains, devouring more life increased the solidness of the core power of the Black Tide, and its emitted pressure grew increasingly daunting, gradually submerging the entire world into an infinite abyss of darkness.

Throughout this process, aside from various Spiritual Resources, even the most ordinary soil and stones became nutrients for the growth of the Black Tide.

Until the entire world was completely consumed, the image faded.

"Did you simulate participating in a world-class war?"

"Yes." The Earth Thought Evil Spirit replied.

"No wonder your command ability is so strong, apparently you have already undergone command training for war, but I'm curious why your personality didn't grow during the simulated war."

The Earth Thought Evil Spirit responded with silence.

"I understand, it's because in the simulation test there was no Player Clan; all hostile forces aimed for confrontation, lacking mental torment."

With that, the Evil Eye continued its inquiry:

"Earth Thought, I know every Abyss Warrior has a chance to transcend authority; can you elaborate on that?"

Facing the inquiry, the Earth Thought Evil Spirit remained silent for a long time before speaking:

"The exact origin of transcending authority, I am unclear; however, it is said to be related to a Demon God Level Evil Spirit Warrior who started from insignificance, like me, growing from a follower-level Evil Spirit Warrior. During a war in the Big World, the Black Tide it followed was in a hard fight, and it proposed a war plan that wasn't agreed upon by the Command-level Evil Spirit, leading to ultimate defeat in the war."

"This failure left a deep impression on this Demon God Level Warrior, so after it grew into a Demon God Level Warrior, it created the Abyss Battlefield, granting every Talent-level Warrior an opportunity to transcend authority, allowing them to make specific requests and grant them the right to break conventions, possibly creating miracles; nonetheless, it is limited to one opportunity, and this request is even allowed to call upon resources far beyond authority. I can even request King-Level Warriors from the Pale Continent Region to cooperate with my actions."
