「 Soul Goes Scatter! 」 Li Yang shouted.
The mist of blood scattered with the wind.
The dozens of ferocious wraith skulls no longer moved, each of them had turned pale without any signs of life.
"You've worked hard" Gu Qing Shan said.
「 Precise control of the soul vessel is indeed difficult — — - but as long as it's against the Heaven realm, we Tianma are willing to give it a try 」 Li Yang said.
She then asked worriedly: "They said the Samsara won't be able to suppress the Apocalypse soon, what does that mean?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I'm guessing it's because the Samsara has only just been rebooted, it's at its weakest point, that's why it's here"
"What do you mean?"
「 — — this is the back of the human realm, separated by the earth, specifically used to fight against the Apocalypse, to protect the peace of the human realm 」 Gu Qing Shan explained.
Li Yang muttered: 「 How strange, even if the Samsara has only just been rebooted, it shouldn't be this cautious … could it be that there are some particularly powerful Apocalypses among them?
Gu Qing Shan sighed and nodded.
He couldn't help but recall the time when he turned into the Night Cruiser God and saw a unique Apocalypse on the Tomb River.
— — -countless mist formed a skull with a long and narrow face.
Any entity that approached it would be stripped of all space and time, falling into an endless void without any way to escape, only death.
It was impossible to attack it, because it was no longer in the current Space-Time.
This was an unsolvable Apocalypse.
Aside from it, there were also endless Apocalypses deep within the great tomb.
The Samsara naturally had to be careful.
— — not to mention, there were also the Apocalypse Envoys lurking in the shadows.
The only good news was that the Samsara had already left the previous Reality Gate and entered a completely new one.
The Apocalypse Envoys might have lost some sort of ability because of this, so they still weren't able to summon the Apocalypses outside.
"Let's go, we're going back" Gu Qing Shan said.
「 Back to the brothel? 」 Li Yang asked.
「 No, we're going back to the warehouse just now, the matter here has only just begun, it's not yet time to return 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
As the two of them were about to leave, the dozens of skulls on the ground all flew up.
They shot to the sky, exploding into a pale white ring.
"That's a backtracking type Immortal Art incantation" Li Yang's expression changed.
"What's the use?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 The marking screen — — - everything that happened here has been exposed! 」 Li Yang said.
Exposed?
In other words, the Emperor Of Heaven knows what happened here?
In a flash, a line of scarlet words appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan.
"Be careful, a Phase Realm is trying to connect to the Origin World."
"It is about to appear before you."
After reading through everything, Gu Qing Shan loudly shouted: "Ye Ru Xi — — -"
In an instant, a thin woman in a military uniform appeared.
It was Ye Ru Xi.
"What's wrong?" she asked warily.
Gu Qing Shan said, "Someone is coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow of a giant city gradually appeared on the vast land.
This was an illusory city that exuded 5-colored divine light. Although it was gigantic, it was still floating stably in the sky.
The city was surrounded by endless auspicious images, accompanied by the wondrous melody of heavenly flowers, as well as layers upon layers of clouds, making it seem like a city of eternity, or a city of the Heaven realm in everyone's dreams.
A dignified voice resounded from within the city:
「 Gu Qing Shan, you're quite the character to be able to discover my scheme, but you've already been fated to fail 」
The Emperor Of Heaven!
That was his voice!
Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to answer, a brilliant immortal light flew out from the city, flashed through the endless void of space, and headed straight for Gu Qing Shan.
So fast!
As Gu Qing Shan was about to react, Ye Ru Xi had already stood in front of him.
She shouted in a low voice: "Sanctuary!"
Boom — — -
A bronze wall several hundred meters wide abruptly manifested from the ground, blocking in front of the three of them.
The immortal light smashed into the bronze wall, producing an earth-shattering sound.
The sky darkened, sand and pebbles flew everywhere.
Everything became blurry.
After a long while, the commotion slowly calmed down.
"This level of power … should be the full power of that city, it's a bit troublesome" Ye Ru Xi commented.
Her hand was trembling a bit as she placed it on the bronze wall.
Li Yang couldn't help but click her tongue at this.
— — this woman's strength is complete!
Where did Gu Qing Shan find such a powerful individual? Not only was her power not sealed, she was even able to stop the full power attack of the Emperor Of Heaven's divine city!
"How troublesome?" Gu Qing Shan calmly asked.
"If this continues, I won't be able to protect you" Ye Ru Xi replied.
"It seems we need to think of a way to escape" saying so, Li Yang reached out to grab Gu Qing Shan's sleeve.
"Wait a minute, don't be in such a hurry" Gu Qing Shan stopped her.
At this point, the Emperor Of Heaven's voice resounded from afar:
"You're quite lucky to be able to stop this attack. Very well, I'll let you go for now"
Gu Qing Shan made a strange expression.
"Let me … go?"
He muttered, took a deep breath, then abruptly shouted: "Emperor Of Heaven, you shameless old dog! Fight me to the death if you have the guts! "
Within the desolate world, his voice resounded for a long time, echoing in every direction.
Li Yang was shocked, then hurriedly grabbed his hand and chanted an escape incantation.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly covered her mouth.
"Wait a bit longer" he muttered.
The world became silent for a brief moment.
Emperor Of Heaven coldly chuckled: "A mere wandering soul dares to act so presumptuously, I'll let you know that this great one is currently leading the immortals against the Apocalypse, I don't have the time to pay attention to an ant like you"
"Gu Qing Shan, you haven't even passed the Five Elements Purgatory, while I've already established my own Heavenly City. My merits are boundless, I've received the Samsara's favor, I've been appointed as the lord of the Heavenly City and obtained the peerless Samsara Divine Skill"
"Once I win against the Apocalypse in front of me, I'll personally lead ten thousand immortals to descend upon the human realm, skin you alive, cut you into pieces, and banish your soul to Huang Quan, never to reincarnate!"
Emperor Of Heaven's voice carried a heavy sense of killing intent that filled the entire world.
Li Yang's expression warped as her heart sank.
Who would've thought that Emperor Of Heaven's previous methods were nothing more than idle chess pieces.
What he was truly doing was establishing a Heavenly City!
With such a Heavenly City, he had already gone further than any other Saint Chosen.
Wanting to catch up to him after him was nothing more than a pipe dream!
Li Yang's expression was pale as she muttered in a daze: "… What do I do … the gap is too great …"
Gu Qing Shan then told Ye Ru Xi: "Ye Ru Xi, don't worry about me, go destroy that Heavenly City right away"
Ye Ru Xi was surprised, then replied: "I'm afraid I won't be able to take that city"
"Just go and fight, destroy as much as you can — — - they're currently fighting against the Apocalypse, so they don't even have enough power to deal with me. You can go and cause a bit of a ruckus, distracting them a bit so that they won't be able to pay attention to what I'm doing" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Hm" Ye Ru Xi replied.
"Also, I'll give you the authority to summon the moon, if you feel that your life is in danger, immediately cancel the summon and return at any time" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Understood" Ye Ru Xi replied.
She leapt up and took to the sky.
From the void of space behind her, a pair of bronze arms that connected heaven and earth manifested.
From afar, the Emperor Of Heaven's voice resounded again: "Who are you?"
A desolate presence erupted from Ye Ru Xi's body and loudly declared: "Don't worry about who I am, I'd like to witness the strength of your Heaven realm!"
"Why bother? Join my Heaven realm, I'll grant you the title of Pillar Deity!"
"Pillar Deity? I'm a Deity of [Chaos], I don't care about a Pillar Deity like you "Ye Ru Xi coldly scoffed and pointed forward.
The two bronze arms flew straight towards the Heavenly City, obscuring the light of the sky along the way.
Seeing that a world-shaking war was about to erupt, Gu Qing Shan finally told Li Yang: "Let's go!"
"Where to?"
"Where can you take me?"
"Because I came in response to the Wind Tribulation, I can only return to the brothel"
"Then let's return!"
Li Yang formed a hand seal. The two of them flashed and disappeared.
…
Inside the brothel.
Xie Dao Ling sat on the main seat, silently listened to Gu Qing Shan's recount of the entire process, then asked: "Which means, the Emperor Of Heaven has already surpassed all the Saint Chosens and established a Heavenly City?"
"Indeed" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Xie Dao Ling sighed: "He truly has an advantage over everyone else — — - what I know is that the Samsara Divine Skills obtained by the Lord of the Heavenly City are stronger than anyone else, this is a form of recognition from the Samsara"
"Shifu also knows this? It seems that the Emperor Of Heaven wasn't lying when I scolded him — — - with his status, it would be detrimental to his reputation if he were to lie in such a public place … "Gu Qing Shan pondered.
Xie Dao Ling asked: "You first have to go through the Five Elements Purgatory, only then can you establish a city that can fight against the Apocalypse. Building a city to the level of a Heavenly City isn't something that can be achieved in a short period of time — — - just one step behind means you'll always be behind, this is an almost insurmountable gap, have you thought about what to do?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "There's only one thing I haven't made clear"
"What is it?" Xie Dao Ling asked.
"If a city … has more than one owner, how would the Samsara judge it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Xie Dao Ling immediately understood.
She smiled: "How many owners there are, it would be divided equally among them, the Samsara would also calculate it based on the Merit gained from fighting against the Apocalypse, the more Merit, the stronger the Samsara Divine Skill would become"
Gu Qing Shan nodded, then asked Li Yang: "This is an urgent matter, I remember that the Tianma have connections with all kinds of demons and devils, can you invite their leaders to the brothel?"
"With my status and your name, I can naturally invite them" Li Yang replied.
"Invite them to come immediately!" Gu Qing Shan said.
…
Not too long later.
The entire brothel was filled with guests.
Demons and devils of the evil path were gathered here, all of them were Demon Saints, Fiend Lords, Devil Kings, etc.
Seeing so many monsters, Qin Xiaolou was a bit surprised, so he silently grabbed Gu Qing Shan and asked: "These guys are strong, but they're so much weaker compared to the Emperor Of Heaven, what do you plan to do?"
"Use the masses" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"What?" Qin Xiaolou didn't hear that clearly.
"Mobilize the power of the people" Gu Qing Shan explained.
At this point, Li Yang came over and invited him to speak.
Gu Qing Shan walked to the center of the room and cleared his throat: "Everyone"
"I have a huge deal to discuss with you."
"It's like this, I have a Heavenly City that only needs a few Merit Stones to …"
"… That's right, my city will help you evolve the Samsara Divine Skill …"
He stood on the stage and spoke, occasionally answering some questions.
"Yes, this Demon King is right … it's a profitable deal …"
"Of course I won't lie to you, I can swear a Samsara Vow … or even a written contract, everyone will have a share in it anyways …"
A fluctuation appeared in the world.
The Samsara Vow was sworn.
The atmosphere in the brothel slowly became lively.
Gu Qing Shan continued to answer some questions, then concluded:
"Yes, of course it won't be under the Heaven realm's control, and it has nothing to do with the other realms of Samsara"
"… That will be each and every one of our cities"
"It will be our evil path's own city!"
"Very well, everything has been made clear — — which one of you wants to participate?"
He finally finished.
All was quiet.
A second later.
The entire brothel was filled with roars of agreement that soared to the heavens.
A few moments later.
Gu Qing Shan took out a white handkerchief, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and walked down the stage.
He pulled Li Yang to one side and asked in a low voice: "Can you find the humans from the Tomb of Myriad Beasts?"
Li Yang was surprised, then replied: "As long as there are living beings with emotions and desires, we Tianma can find them, but why do you want to find them?"
"I'll bring them here for the next round — — they're familiar with me, so contact them immediately"
"So soon?"
"Ye Ru Xi is holding up Emperor Heaven's Heavenly City, we need to hurry"
…
A few hours later.
Gu Qing Shan stood on the stage, then told Shan Hai Qi Xia, Li Chun Dao, and the others: "Everyone, with our relationship, I won't waste any more time"
"It's like this, I have a Heavenly City that only needs a few Merit Stones, I can …"
He spoke with fervor and assurance from above.
Li Yang stood below the stage and took out a piece of paper.
A single sentence was written on it:
[When my round is about to end, contact the Daoists of Huang Quan and tell them that the Huang Quan Devil King has a huge deal he wants to discuss with them, mainly to find the ferryman of the Forgetting River. She's a bigshot, a good friend of mine, as well as a close acquaintance of my Shifu, so she can speak to me]
Li Yang looked at the paper, then at Gu Qing Shan, then sighed: "This person … is he even human"
