Upon completion of this update, a new functional building will be opened in the Eastern District of Imperial Tomb Village: Transmission Square.

Building Feature Description: Players can use the square to jump across regions via teleportation, quickly reaching the connected teleport nodes of Imperial Tomb Village....

...

As the game notification popped up, Imperial Tomb Village trembled simultaneously.

Eastern District.

Above the debris of buildings, a twisted black hole emerged, absorbing all the debris, and the ground below it rapidly assembled into white floor tiles, with glowing blue spiritual patterns swiftly outlining trajectories on the tiles.

In the central area, two eerie blue stone pillars covered in rule runes rose from the ground, a twisted spinning black spot appeared in the center, enlarging at a rate visible to the naked eye, until the edge of the black hole approached the stone pillars, as if locked by an invisible force, ceasing its expansion.

The dark vortex churned violently, with myriad vibrant spots appearing inside, like boiling pool water, painting the spatial vortex in colors.

The floor tiles of the completed square were lit from the edges, converging toward the center along the spiritual pattern paths.

Boom!

When the central node connected via the spiritual patterns, the two pillars confining the spatial vortex ignited with crimson flames, stabilizing the colorful spatial vortex at the center.

Half an hour ago, Qi Sheng, operating behind the scenes, received a connection from Yan Ming.

Knowing that the Space Transmission Array at Colorful Mist Coast was ready, he decisively initiated the update, delivering this news to the players.

The Space Transmission Array, once activated, consumed sacrificial power every second to maintain operation, and he needed to shift this steady expense onto the players.

More importantly, the opening of the Colorful Mist Coast area would provide players with more spiritual resources to harvest, and even potentially more native monsters to accommodate.

After the update notification popped up, the Player Forum exploded with activity.

All players discussed the Space Transmission Array and related information about Colorful Mist Coast.

When players within Imperial Tomb Village posted photos of the Space Square to the forum and regional voice channels, the discussion heat climbed even further.

During this period, players continuously used 5 points of sacrificial power to pass through the Space Transmission Array, arriving at Colorful Mist Coast.

The scenery that presented itself made the arriving players feel as if they had entered the wrong game.

In contrast to the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range, the style of Colorful Mist Coast was like a completely different world.

Emperor Tomb Mountain Range was infused with dark elements.

Mountains of corpses, widespread broken weapons, grotesque Black Tide Demonic Spirits, the dark red Evil Moon hanging high in the sky, twisted, entwined corrupt plants... These elements combined to make the environment of the Emperor Tomb Mountain Range exceptionally oppressive and chilly.

But the environment of Colorful Mist Coast was entirely different

Bright sunshine, azure skies, refreshing sea breezes, expansive white beaches, air mixed with the fragrance of Spirit Fruits... Various elements interwoven into a breathtakingly beautiful environment.

At this moment, a white sand crab spat bubbles, brandishing its large pincers, scuttling sideways in front of the transmission array.

Even the native monsters appeared incredibly adorable in the eyes of the arriving players.

Soon, the regional voice channel was filled with players’ exclamations:

"Holy shit, I must have entered the wrong game, something is off here!"

"I’m stunned, isn’t this supposed to be an apocalyptic scene under the Black Tide? How come the air here is sweet, and even the energy in the air is noticeably stronger, let me take a few more breaths to appreciate the difference from the air at Emperor Tomb Mountain Range."

"I’m flabbergasted, I just entered the Spatial Passage, and when I saw Colorful Mist Coast as a transmission option, my preconceived scene was, under the Evil Moon, the sea churning like ink, an ancient ghost ship bobbing with the waves, tattered flags fluttering in the cold wind, numerous ghostly figures wailing as they roamed above the sea... Looking towards the far end of the sea, dark clouds gathering, thunder roaring, with every lightning strike, the illuminated horizon revealed countless black tentacles flickering away, faintly hearing a terrifying low chant from the depths of the sea... But the scene before me left me dumbfounded, I almost thought there was a loading error, such a huge disparity."

"As a Fishing Man, seeing the word ’coast,’ I knew I had to make the trip, and it was the right decision, haha, advancing to a Sea Fishing Player."

"Guys, look at the end of the sea, isn’t that the Evil Moon scene?"

"Damn, there’s actually an Evil Moon hanging at the end of the sea, it seems we might witness the map being covered by the Evil Moon just before the apocalypse unfolds."

...

Continuously updated screenshots on the forum attracted a large number of players to travel to Colorful Mist Coast via the Transmission Array.

Especially players who chose the fishing growth path, one after another crossed the Space Transmission Array, arriving to find fishing spots to start sea fishing mode.

With the debut of the new map, many players’ desire to explore was also ignited.

This included Exploration Faction players.

One of their core goals in experiencing the game is to find breathtaking scenery, understand the history and culture of different regions in the game world.

The environment at Colorful Mist Coast captivated them.

As players dispersed to explore, the map’s encyclopedia function also quickly updated.

New plants, monsters, spiritual resources, and other information were recorded, the fog dissipated, and the clear areas on the map expanded during this period.

Inevitable fights ensued.

Although the monsters near the coast were not as cruel or bloodthirsty as the Evil Spirits or Insect Race, many possessed a strong sense of territory.
