Chapter 280 – Florida Man Collapses After Pushing Limits by Writing 8,000 Words in 8 Hours for Serialized Novel's Christmas Event
"W-What?" The elves warily stared at Esen.
Esen brightly grinned and unleashed her domain ability. She displayed a new power, which she had obtained after receiving Leo's system.
Live Necromancy!
The crowd of green elves in front of Esen exploded, scattering flesh and blood everywhere. Their bodies left behind only bloody skeletons! Regardless of immortals or deities, everybody in her line of sight perished instantly, body and soul!
This new domain allowed Esen to transform living people with the same or lower cultivation base into an undead skeleton. Their soul's memory would be wiped clean, and they would be cursed into an undead forever.
That was not all. Her system reacted to the blood and militated corpses of the elves. The pearl in Esen's hands started sucking liquid, flesh, and innards of the dead. Within a minute, the stained parking lot was clean.
DING
<Secure 1,000kg of organic fertilizer (10,937/1,000)>
<Congratulations! You have completed the 7th tutorial quest.>
<A new feature has been unlocked. You can now access your Fertilizer Inventory.>
<Fertilizer Inventory can only store organic objects. You cannot retrieve any item from this inventory like normal inventory systems. All stored items will be automatically converted into numeric values of fertilizer for your world trees.>
<A new quest has been generated.>
.
Tutorial Quest (8/10)
After gaining enough fertilizer, you should think of a suitable place to plant the world tree seed. Since a world tree's characteristics, power, and blessings are at stake, you should plan out and cultivate the environment before completing the plantation process.
As this is a tutorial quest, the system will help you pinpoint a suitable location for planting. You can temporarily access the system map and see the recommended plantation spots, highlighted on the screen.
Quest Objectives:
- Mix the targeted area's soil with 1,000kg of fertilizer (0/1,000)
- Plant the World Tree Seed (0/1)
- Water the seed with any Holy Water every day for a week (0/7)
Rewards:
- Unlock World Tree Status and Management Feature.

Esen grinned and opened her new system inventory menu. When she found icons of militated flesh, she snickered.
"I should have extorted this ability from him ages ago. Damn geezer. You're hiding so many secrets from me! Hehehehehe."
Ivy had been standing behind Esen. She sweated profusely and gazed at her master in admiration and astonishment.
"Wow."
Esen turned around and gazed at Ivy, "Look, Ivy. We have new workers! It doesn't even consume a lot of Qi. I think I can maintain 100,000 of them with one percent of my Qi."
Ivy dryly laughed, "You're getting a lot stronger, your majesty. L-Let's go see his majesty and tell him about your new abilities."
"Of course! By the way, where is my husband?"
"…Probably, up there?" Ivy pointed up, gesturing that Leo might be on the flying island above them.
"Alright. Let's go see them… But on a second thought, let's do that later. Those annoying high elves might mistake me for my mother again."
"…True."
Afraid of the complications, Esen stored the world tree's seed and left the parking lot, flying north. They traveled together to the black mountain, where Leo had left behind a black stone mine active.

Meanwhile, the planet of High Elf faced a new change.
The portal of Leo's mystic realm platform sent them to the destroyed fortress, where the bombs landed.
WHOOSH
A new batch of married elves came out of the portal. But when they exited the portal, they fell to the ground and hit other elves who had arrived before them.
"OUCH! Watch where you're going!"
More elves kept pouring out of the portal and piled on top of the others below them. Some of them tumbled and rolled down from the mountain of bodies. The unfortunate girls underneath gritted their teeth and circulated their Qi to survive.
Soon, a deity elf came out. When she found out about the situation, she pulled out every elf on the mountain and rescued the unlucky woman. She also created an ice slider, forcing newcomers to slide down the path she had created.
The slider allowed the newcomers to gain time to react. A minute later, more people arrived and fell into the slider tracks. As the deity had envisioned, the new people leaped or flew off the slider track, avoiding the congested front gate.
When everybody gained their bearings, they finally noticed the disaster. The land that they once called home was left in ruin. A portion of the continent sank into the ocean while small craters riddled the afloat parts. As for the forest homes, nothing remained.
"WHAT HAPPENED HERE?!" Everybody panicked and screamed.
A few of the elves were enraged. They tried to go back to the Florida Domain.
Unfortunately, more people kept coming out. They bumped heads and knocked each other out.
For a while, they got stuck there. More elves stared at the portal, waiting for the exodus to end. They vowed to go back and question the kidnappers.
.
.
15 days later, the situation calmed down. More than 70% of the elves returned to their world. However, the rest of the elves chose not to return home.
Strangely, 100,000 elves decided to stay here permanently. They built their homes in the slum district and started doing business with the local humans. Some of them even married to the rich men and cultivators.
5,000 young elves fell prey to Meowmeow. They soon exited the agriculture world as elf golems, and they joined ranks with the worker mannequins, helping the local farms and other facilities in the shopping mall.
Because of the new influx of population, the stores had been busy again. Migrated elves were allowed to enter the shopping mall, and they quickly explored the facilities.
This day, the sky platform was finally devoid of elves. The last woman entered the portal, and the queue was no more.
However, chaos never stopped. A few minutes after the last woman left, several elves returned to the Florida Domain.
The first group was a team of deities. They rushed to confront Wei Yuan and questioned him.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR WORLD?! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY PLANET?!"
Wei Yuan's cold eyes fixated on them as she answered, "From what the lord has informed me, one of yours is the one who did this. Our lord was the one who rescued you from the calamity. Also, you ungrateful brain-rot parrots-in-heat should watch your tone. Yelling and screaming like Karen-on-period will only get you killed. Not all of us are benevolent or kind."
"E-Eh?!"
Coincidentally, Meowmeow left the agriculture world after converting another teenage elf into a statue golem. He noticed a group of angry deity elves.
"What's up, ladies? Are you here to join my harem squad, too?"
The elves were still angry. They looked at Meowmeow and were about to curse him.
However, Meowmeow's pheromone and handsomeness stunned them. Their anger disappeared as fast as zoomers browsing through TikTok clips.
Seizing the opportunity, Meowmeow soothed the crowd with his calm and deep voice.
"Say, girlies. Wanna chill and watch Netflix together in that realm? We have cookies, pizzas, and BIG rod."
"…"
