Clang clang clang!
The gems were disappearing one after another, fusing into the wall and providing power to the Sacred Gate.
Gu Qing Shan peeked out from the pile of gems, followed by Boss and Scarlet.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly placed Little Dusk on top of the gems.
Scarlet asked in surprise: "Rhode, where did you get so many gems?"
Gu Qing Shan signaled to Boss with her eyes and replied: "These are the Lord of Radiance's treasures, Shroud was afraid that he would misuse them, so he left them with me"
"That's right, they're all mine!" Boss patted his chest and declared.
"So that's why!" Scarlet exclaimed in surprise.
After deceiving Scarlet, Gu Qing Shan met Boss's questioning gaze and sent her voice: "It was Lola, she thought of a way to deliver the Bramble Bird Kingdom's wealth"
"That's great" Boss felt his spirits lifted.
A furious roar resounded from the outside.
The entire secret room trembled and was once again covered in cracks.
— – quite obviously, the other party had increased the power of destruction.
The gems were quickly disappearing layer by layer, all of them fusing into the wall.
In the end, only a thin layer of gems remained on the ground, about to be completely used up.
「 Ant-like lifeforms, do you really think you'll be safe hiding in such a small room? 」 the voice rumbled.
— — all the gems on the ground disappeared.
The Sacred Gate panicked: 「 It's hurting me so much, you need to give me more gems, otherwise, we'll be in deep trouble! 」
Gu Qing Shan and Boss both remained silent.
Scarlet looked at the two of them and couldn't help but ask: "Earlier, you wanted to fight to the death, why aren't you panicking at all now?"
Boss said: "Scarlet, I'll tell you a secret"
"What is it?"
"Money is a man's courage"
Gu Qing Shan turned her ring.
Clang clang clang clang!
Countless gems once again enveloped everyone.
Following that, as that entity continued to destroy them, these gems disappeared layer by layer until they were completely gone again.
The trembling resounded from the outside again:
"Pitiful fellas, you have harvested a lot of precious minerals from nature. Originally, you could have resisted all kinds of powerful attacks. Unfortunately, you have encountered me."
Cracks once again appeared on the walls of the secret chamber.
The Sacred Gate panicked again and called out: 「 Big brothers, look at this — — 」
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Countless gems once again drowned everyone.
Then, as that existence continued to destroy, these gems disappeared layer by layer, and finally, the bottom could be seen again.
The voice resounded in everyone's hearts.
"You've collected many magnificent gems, and a large number at that. It seems that you've made ample preparations to hide in this secret chamber. Unfortunately, you've met me, the Creator Spirit that all gods worship, the Lord of Infinite Origins!"
In the light and shadow, the long tentacle no longer constricted the secret room. Instead, it unfurled and swayed in the darkness before fiercely lashing at the secret room.
Boom!
Countless cracks instantly appeared on the walls of the secret chamber.
The Sacred Gate shouted in panic: 「 Give me some gems! It was too ruthless! If we don't have any gems, we'll all die here! 」
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Countless gems once again drowned everyone.
…
This process repeated 23 times.
The 24th time — —
The Sacred Gate begged for mercy: 「 Big brother, I'm just a broken door, can you please stop hitting me? 」
Boom!
The door cracked.
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring and replenished the gems.
The 36th time.
The tentacle madly lashed at the secret room.
The Sacred Gate begged for mercy: 「 Don't hit me anymore, big brother, I say, I'll always fix it better if you hit me, can't you just stop for a bit? 」
The Lord of Infinite Radiance replied: 「 Ants like you have been collecting gems your entire lives? How laughable and pitiful! 」
Boom!
The door cracked.
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring and replenished the gems.
The 65th time.
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring and took out a few bottles of drinks, tossing them to Boss and Scarlet.
"Drink this, it'll benefit you" Gu Qing Shan told Scarlet.
Scarlet glanced at Boss, only to see that he had already opened the bottle and was gulping it down.
Scarlet also took a sip.
Huh?
Her wounds seem to be getting better?
Scarlet froze, then picked up the can and drank it just like Boss.
The sound of heavy impact resounded from outside the secret room — — -
Boom!
The door cracked.
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring and replenished the gems.
The 91st time.
Little Dusk had woken up and was drinking her drink.
The voice angrily shouted: 「 Even if my wounds haven't fully healed, I can still use up all of your gems 」
The Sacred Gate begged: 「 Big brother Divine King, this door of mine has already been broken countless times, please calm down and stop hitting me! 」
Boom!
The door cracked.
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring and replenished the gems.
The first time — —
The 365th time.
The Sacred Gate loudly shouted: 「 Harder! Didn't you eat? Such little strength, what did you do yesterday? Harder! 」
The outside was silent.
After a while, the expected impact came again.
Boom!
The walls of the secret room began to crack.
Gu Qing Shan twirled the ring and released the gems.
— — the secret room was completely repaired.
The voice carried a hint of unwillingness and confusion as it spoke up again:
"Alright, little bugs, the number of gems you've stored has exceeded my expectations, but no matter what, I've already imprisoned you here."
「 — — You shall be imprisoned here forever. No food, no water, no cultivation resources, nothing of use. You shall die alone in the darkness. This is your final destination. 」
After saying so, the long tentacle retracted and disappeared without a trace.
The only thing left was a small secret room that remained in the darkness of nothingness.
"He said it quite well" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"That's right, if I were him, I'd also think that's a good idea" Boss agreed.
Bam!
Their chopsticks clashed, then moved away to grab a piece of kelp and a piece of beef from the hotpot.
Little Dusk was cooking meat for everyone.
Scarlet was holding a bottle of liquor, drinking it while stealing kelp from Gu Qing Shan's plate.
— — -everyone was having dinner.
Lola's treasure vault naturally contained food — — after all, everyone had a deep impression of Gu Qing Shan's cooking skills. She also noticed that Gu Qing Shan was trapped in a small secret room, so she prepared a lot of food.
"So spicy!"
Little Dusk tried a piece of meat and stuck out her tongue.
Scarlet gave her the bottle of liquor and said: "Hurry, just a sip"
As Little Dusk was about to drink it, Gu Qing Shan stopped her.
"You can't drink her liquor, if you drink it, you'll have to lie down" Gu Qing Shan said.
He took out a bottle of fruit juice and gave it to her.
The four of them enjoyed their meal.
Gu Qing Shan put the hotpot away, then brought out quite a few desserts.
After everyone had finished eating, he took out a few dozen bottles of liquor and told Scarlet: "Thank you for sharing your life force with me earlier. Since you have some free time, try each of the bottles on the ground and remember their taste, I'll teach you how to mix them better later"
Scarlet's eyes glowed and loudly said: "Got it!"
Gu Qing Shan ignored her and walked to the center of the secret room, telling Boss and Little Dusk: "The two of you, come here"
"What is it?"
"Come here first"
The two of them didn't understand what was going on, so they walked over.
Gu Qing Shan spoke with a serious expression: "While that guy thinks we're trapped, I'm going to use a profound power to remove all connections between you and that guy"
Boss shook his head: "That's not possible, it's actually the will of the entire world, the original God, capable of communicating with everything. It's just that it's injured and hasn't fully recovered, otherwise, we would definitely be under its control"
Little Dusk pondered: "Why did it suddenly appear? Was it because it saw the two of you losing your powers? "
Gu Qing Shan and Boss exchanged glances.
This was indeed a problem.
"Other than that, it might … not be that simple …" Boss pondered.
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
Little Dusk's expression darkened and said: "When it controlled me, I couldn't resist at all. It was thanks to Rhode's sword strike that I regained my senses, otherwise, I would have definitely attacked you"
Gu Qing Shan put up a finger: "But it wasn't able to control Scarlet and me. Now, I'm going to do something, you two will do it together — — this is the ultimate secret method to escape from its control"
"Got it!" Little Dusk and Boss happily replied.
Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and made a graceful pose on the spot.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
A line of glowing text appeared in front of his eyes:
[You will begin practicing the Living Being Sacrificial Dance]
[This will be a dance for three people. As the lead dancer, you will lead your two partners to experience the beauty of the dance]
[Let us begin with the warm-up]
[Raise your head, puff out your chest, shake your hips — –]
[Music, go!]
Dong!
Dong, dong, dong.
Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!
The rhythmic sound of a drum resounded.
Boss's expression changed and exclaimed in shock: "Why is it this — — the dance that all ghosts worship?"
Gu Qing Shan glared at him and sent her voice: "Watch what you say, do you want to die?"
Boss was also soaked in cold sweat.
A second later, he found that he had lost control of his body and began to shake his hips.
"Hey, did Scarlet also escape from its control like this?" Boss asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied with a serious expression: "Correct! This is the only way to escape from its control, you will need to change your world in order to escape from its control "
Little Dusk followed suit and asked with interest: "Just this cute dance is enough?"
Gu Qing Shan made a pouting gesture, then solemnly replied: "That's right"
Boss: "…"
Little Dusk covered her mouth and giggled, saying: "Wow, I like this dance"
She excitedly danced, the more she danced, the better she danced, quickly becoming several times better than Boss.
While the three of them were dancing, the void of space suddenly shifted as something descended.
Everyone turned to look, only to see that it was a Card that fell right in front of Little Dusk.
Little Dusk glanced at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan naturally saw the War God UI's notification and excitedly said: "Very well, you've received the Dance's favor, this Card is the Dance's reward for you, take it!"
Little Dusk took the card and read the description on the card:
[Causality Law: Weapon Prohibition]
