Chapter 999 Another World Announcement After So Long!
Draco, Eva, and Shuangtian had been busy cooking up something special, and it had finally brewed to perfection.
Just like how pressure made carbon in diamond, the trio had placed pressure on their energy to force it to evolve one step higher. This had required the three of them to pool their power together and charge for so long, but the results were impressive.
Most importantly, this manifested in the ability they chose to use which the compressed energy was fed into, which was naturally the Destructive Beam. Putting aside using special energy, even using his normal energy, Draco's Destruction abilities, whether bloodline or game-based, could have put the Kraken in a very tough spot.
This was the very same energy that could even wear down Origin Energy, so it was not exaggerated. The reason they didn't simply join the core members in bombarding the Kraken was precisely because they knew the difference between a World Boss and one who wasn't.
So rather than continue to waste time and unleash powers that would only sear flesh but char bone, they wanted a one-shot attack that would end it all.
This was it.
Draco pushed his palm forward and glanced at the Kraken with disdain. "Destiny still arrives."
BANG!
A giant beam of dark black light that caused the body, soul, and spirit to shiver in fear instinctively was fired downwards, moving so fast that the Kraken only had time to squeal in fear before it was hit.
The beam covered its entire body and turned it into ash immediately, wiping away the seawater where it swam along with everything in its way.
Heck, if it wasn't for Draco's insane growth in the control of his Destruction power, it would be like when he was at Rank 1 and a simple Destruction Beam broke space and caused the whole Abyss Event to happen.
Apart from that, his growth with Destruction Energy also prevented him from destroying the essence of the being he was striking, so its exp and loot could be gathered afterward, which was a great boon compared to before.
Before that though, you knew what was gonna happen.

「Suppression Immunity – Special Rank
If you suffer a Level Suppression of at most 25%, or a Rank Suppression of one Rank, you can ignore the effects. If you suffer from a Level Suppression or Rank Suppression surpassing this amount, the difference is calculated and implemented.」
........................…..
The entire world was in an uproar when they saw this. Many players felt surreal but did not really understand the meaning of this as this was not the previous timeline, and they weren't crazy enough to be challenging above their Rank anyway.
Of course, they knew it was significant, not how significant.
It was totally different on the side of the NPCs. The world seemed to have turned upside down and various powerhouses stood up from their seats in alarm or fear.
Immediately dense killing intent erupted around the world, whether in the Mapped zones or the few Unmapped Zones traversed by Draco, Eva, or Draco's Avatar.
"Damn! I knew we should have snuffed those Immortal Adventurers out a long time ago!"
"I can't stand for this! Even the Demons from the Great War do not dare touch Rank 7 powerhouses, but these Immortal freak dare?!"
"Expunge! Kill! The time of the Immortal Adventurers is over! First deal with Umbra, then destroy the rest!"
All the NPC powerhouses above Rank 6 were sent into madness and mobilized themselves and their forces to rush toward Vita Kingdom.
An unprecedented calamity was descending on Umbra that might just destroy the guild forever!
..................…..
Despite the uproar in the outside world, the area where the Outer Vvault was kept was silent as the core members digested their gains.
Firstly, there was the experience!
「System to Player Announcement
You have done the near impossible and killed a Rank 7 entity while at Rank 2 (Draco, Eva, Shuangtian)/Rank 4 (Everyone else). Rank +1!」
Everyone was rewarded a whole Rank by the AI, which caused them joy. Regardless of Legendary or Divine class, the shitty exp gain rate made them work like dogs to the point where they only logged out once a month to deal with various issues and rushed back.
The rest of the time was spent grinding crazily. Funny enough, the fighting was obviously easier for them with their higher power level on average, but the work they put in was more than a player with a normal class trying to level up in the long run, which was ironic.
The AI never loses.
Remember kids, Suffering builds character.
Now loop that shit forever and you got Boundless World!
The other core members hit Rank 5 without having to use the Training Hall's Private Room, and their powers exploded as some of them even absorbed ambient Worldly Energy to facilitate their upgrades, similar to NPCs.
Draco, Eva, and Shuangtian felt this the most, and their power became even more prohibitive as they entered Rank 3 of a Semi-Eternal Class.

They had earned 140 stat points going up, and it was invested in all 7 stats equally, which was 20 points for each stat.
What was more amazing was that they now had a 120,000% boost to all stats. This meant that all stats were multiplied by 1200!
So the current 250 per stat ( and 255 for Luck) meant that they had a functional 300,000 value to each stat field. This number simply had no reference point, but one could argue that the Evil trio could probably throw a ki blast to destroy planets.
If you were at Rank 3 and below, a sneeze from them would kill you and your entire familial lineage. If you were at Rank 4, you might have survived with the Rank suppression, but not really.
However, you were now assuredly dead because their new title removed 1 Rank's worth and 50 levels worth of level Suppression. Rank 5 had reduced suppression, meaning you were also more than likely dead with ease.
Rank 6 only had two levels of Suppression instead of 3, meaning you were also dead. Rank 7 was still the same and would require the same amount of effort to kill.
However, this mattered little, because with every Rank they climbed, they made it easier and easier to kill those above them and once they reached Rank 4 and above, the days would be numbered for Rank 7 enemies!
