Acai's Sky

★ Branch Mission 4: Gold Rush in the Deep Sea of ​​Honey, Reaching for the Stars in the Face of Danger

After breaking through the "gold-swallowing formation" of the Pixiu phantom, the "money-picking team" wearing the [Blessing of Pixiu] finally stepped into the core radiation area of ​​the "Money Eye Basin".

The scene here can no longer be described as "magnificent", but has become a distorted, extreme and heart-pounding spectacle of wealth.

The "Jin Ke La" scent in the air was so strong that it almost turned into tangible golden mist, and every breath made the lungs feel heavy.

The earth is no longer soil, but a semi-crystallized beeswax rock layer that sparkles with colorful glass luster!

It is soft but firm when stepped on, and slightly sticky, and gives off a rich, intoxicating sweet fragrance - it is a strange smell mixed with highly concentrated spiritual honey and space-time energy.

The most shocking thing is the central edge of the basin, an area that looks like a mirror smashed by the gods - the Abyssal Honey Sea.

This is not a real body of water, but a mixture of high-concentration space-time energy and solidified beeswax formed after the space is repeatedly folded, torn and glued together by the power of "money eye"!

Countless space bubbles of different sizes and shapes sink, float, collide and annihilate in the sticky colorful "honey syrup" like boiling bubbles!

Inside each space bubble, there are dazzling phantoms of treasures: there are fist-sized golden cores with flowing starlight; there are Wanzaikongqingshi that are emerald green all over and have nine orifices; there are even innate sword spirits that are shaped like small swords and emit sharp sword energy!

They are like ancient insects wrapped in amber, emitting deadly temptation in the distorted light.

However, beneath the beautiful appearance lies extreme danger!

Those space bubbles are extremely unstable. Any slight touch, energy fluctuation, or even staring at them for too long may cause them to implode or move through space!

The power of the implosion is enough to tear apart a grandmaster, and the space jump will randomly throw anything it touches into the unknown turbulence of time and space, with no chance of survival!

Not to mention that the "honey slurry" itself has terrifying stickiness and assimilation properties. Once you fall into it, it will be like falling into high-strength glue, and will be quickly solidified into new "beeswax amber", becoming a part of this twisted spectacle!

"My dear!"

Ah Cai stood at the edge of the [Purple Gold Wine Gourd], her peach blossom eyes wide open, her saliva almost flowing out but she sucked it back.

"This... this is simply like 'a beggar breaking into the Queen Mother's Peach Garden'! The system's 'treasure hunting efficiency +100%' notification is probably a 'death warrant' here."

She activated [Appraisal] + [Delusion-Breaking Gold] (earned from a previous quest), her eyes intertwined with golden and silver light, and the terrifying information about the Abyssal Honey Sea flooded into her mind:

> Name: Deep Sea of ​​Honey

> Status: Highly active space-time folding zone, energy chaos index SSS level! Partial breakdown of physical laws!

> Core output: Star Gold Core, Ten Thousand Years Sky Blue Stone, Innate Sword Soul and other high-level divine materials (sealed in a stable space bubble)

> High-risk characteristics:

> 1. Space Bubble Disturbance: Touch/Energy Shock/Mind Lock exceeds the threshold → Implosion (AoE Damage) or Warp (Exile).

＞ 2. Beeswax Assimilation: Honey slurry is extremely viscous and contains the law of time and space solidification. If it is trapped for more than 3 breaths, it will permanently turn into amber!

> 3. Energy Tide: Periodic bursts of high-intensity space-time turbulence and beeswax fountains, striking indiscriminately!

> Collection Strategy (System Speculation): Use extremely stable force to temporarily solidify the target space bubble, then instantly peel it off with absolute precision and ultra-high speed! At the same time, resist beeswax assimilation and avoid energy tides!

>Difficulty: Nightmare Level!

"Wealth and honor are sought through danger?"

Emperor Ming Zhu Di looked at the golden cores of stars floating in the space bubble, his eyes blazing with heat, but more of a solemn expression. "This is dangerous... I'm afraid it's like 'dancing on the edge of a knife, fishing for gold in a sea of ​​fire'! One mistake and the whole army will be wiped out!"

"Not at all!" Ming minister Xie Jin (the cabinet's chief minister) waved his folding fan, trying to dispel the cloyingly sweet air. "This is a 'treasure trove bestowed by heaven'! However, to obtain it, one must 'use stillness to overcome movement, and ingenuity to overcome force'! Find its 'pulse', and when the 'tide' subsides and the 'honey wave' subsides, strike with thunder!"

……

Just as everyone was thinking hard, an unprecedented bright golden light suddenly burst out from Acai's eyes!

The authority of the [Apostle of the God of Wealth] vibrated violently around her, creating a strange resonance with this twisted land of wealth!

A crazy idea that was extremely audacious but perfectly suited to her identity and abilities struck her mind like lightning!

"Got it!" She slammed the gourd, her voice rising with excitement. "It's unreasonable? Let's talk money into it! Its space is folded? We can use money to 'buy' it straight! Its time is confused? Let's spend money to 'buy' a moment of peace!"

Everyone was stunned: "Buy...buy space and time?"

"That's right!" Ah Cai's face flushed with excitement, and an aura of "money power" that looked down on the world suddenly emerged. "The God of Wealth has authority over everything! Wealth is the rule! It is power! Here, my money is the truth! Look at me - [Wealth Law·Regional Customization·Installation Payment]!"

She raised her hands up suddenly!

This time, it was no longer a [Wealth Storm] that poured out virtual wealth, but a power that communicated with the higher-level wealth rules in the dark!

An enormous phantom of a scale made up of pure golden law runes appeared above her head!

On one side of the scale is the endless golden light of wealth, and on the other side is the chaotic and distorted time and space of the abyssal honey sea!

"The law is supreme! Wealth is the basis!"

Ah Cai's voice was like an oracle, carrying unquestionable majesty and... a strong sense of commercialism. "This piece of land has my heart! I'll rent it to you for a hundred feet, and you'll have peace for a quarter of an hour. As for the rent...it's easy to negotiate!"

She waved her small hand, and a huge amount of extremely condensed wealth crystals (obtained from the previous Pixiu mission) shot into the end of the scale representing wealth like a golden meteor shower!

Om-!

The entire Abyssal Honey Sea shook violently!

The ubiquitous space folding ripples, boiling honey, and violent energy tides seemed to be forcibly smoothed out by an invisible, golden hand!

With Acai as the center, the space within a hundred feet seemed to have been paused, or as if it had been filled with super-stabilizing liquid!

All the restless spatial bubbles in the area instantly solidified! Like bubbles frozen in ice, the treasures within were clearly visible, and the spatial ripples on the surface were completely smoothed out, as stable as a museum display case!

The flow of time in the area was forcibly slowed to a near standstill! The slowly dripping honey and the dissipating energy points were like slow-motion shots from a movie!

But this is not a real stop of time, but the use of the law of wealth to forcibly suppress the movement trends of all energy and matter in the area, creating an absolutely stable and almost static area!

It's like pressing the pause button on the chaotic world, but the price is the continued burning of the crystallization of wealth!

The sticky honey syrup in the area seemed to have lost its vitality and became like thick, semi-solidified jelly, with its viscosity and assimilation ability plummeting to almost nothing!

"Done!" Sweat beads rolled down Ah Cai's forehead, and her face turned slightly pale, but her eyes were surprisingly bright. "A hundred-foot 'safe zone', and a quarter of an hour 'interest-free period'! The rent is expensive! Honesty is the rule, and no credit is accepted! Everyone, hurry up, because 'once this opportunity comes, it will never come back again'!"
