The human realm.
Luo Shui city had been completely razed to the ground.
The ground was completely empty.
But there was a square square table with a pot on top of it.
The pot was filled with boiling red oil.
Qin Xiaolou was sitting on a chair with a bowl and chopsticks in his hand, dipping some meat into the pot.
He was sweating profusely, occasionally taking a sip from his wine glass, feeling extremely satisfied.
"Third Senior Brother has been saved."
"Big sis Li Yang said that the matter in the human realm is over, all Saint's Chosens have gone to participate in the next round of competition — —"
"In other words, there's nothing for me to do anymore!"
He picked up another piece of shredded meat with his chopsticks and ate happily.
Whether it was spirit stones, silver, or even various other resources, I've stored quite a bit of them.
Now that the human realm is finally safe, my junior brothers and sisters are all gone.
Shifu — — -
She's also not here.
I can finally go to a real brothel, read poems, listen to music, and see girls — — -all kinds of girls!
This is what true enjoyment is!
With that in mind, Qin Xiaolou couldn't help but shake his head and recite: "My own new poem is the most charming — — -"
Suddenly, a female voice came from behind him, cutting him off:
"What's going on here?"
"Whoa, Shifu! Why did you suddenly appear without a sound, you scared me! "
A green gate of light opened up, as Xie Dao Ling walked out with a key in her hand.
"The city was destroyed … what happened before?"
Xie Dao Ling frowned and asked.
Qin Xiaolou quickly gave Shifu another set of chopsticks and led her to a seat of honor before explaining: "It's like this …"
He told her what had happened.
Xie Dao Ling asked: "Do you have any bases in other cities?"
"I do, I have bases in the most prosperous cities, what do you need, Shifu?" Qin Xiaolou quickly asked.
Xie Dao Ling sighed and began to eat the pot.
Qin Xiaolou waited for a while, but seeing her seriously using her chopsticks to pick up some meatballs and tossed them into the pot to cook, he didn't ask anything else.
He quickly helped her add charcoal, add vegetables, cook meat, pour wine, and carefully served her.
He had thought that his master would be the same as usual and only wanted to eat, but this time, it seemed a little different.
Xie Dao Ling simply sat there blankly, not picking up any food or eating anything.
She seemed to have lost her soul.
This was a very rare situation for Xie Dao Ling.
Qin Xiaolou asked cautiously, "Master … is it not to your taste?"
Xie Dao Ling regained her senses and replied: "No, it's just that your third junior brother's side is probably in big trouble … our situation is also very dangerous, I'm currently thinking of a solution"
"What's going on?" Qin Xiaolou asked worriedly.
Xie Dao Ling replied: "I've always thought that was only a legend … who would've thought the legend was actually true …"
"Legend? What legend is it? "Qin Xiaolou asked.
Xie Dao Ling replied in a low voice: "In the eras of the past, there was a legend that said that there were three extremely secret techniques, if someone could cultivate them to their peak, they would undergo an unimaginable change and become a Supreme Void Technique that surpasses the imagination of normal people"
"Of the three Supreme Void Techniques … one of them is called the Parallel World Technique, capable of creating countless parallel worlds within the River of Time. The fate and living beings within each world would be different, and the worlds would also exist in reality. It is an extremely mystical technique, the number one defensive technique of the void"
Hearing that, Qin Xiaolou couldn't help but become a bit dazed.
Creating countless parallel worlds, using billions of worlds and living beings to defend, what an unimaginable technique this is!
After thinking for a bit, he couldn't help but ask: "I think I heard third junior brother mention this before"
Xie Dao Ling replied: "That's right, in the Reality Gate that we were in before, someone had performed this technique …"
"Master, are you worried because you've seen the secret of this technique?" Qin Xiaolou asked.
"No — — I've actually seen another Supreme Void Technique" Xie Dao Ling replied.
"Another technique?" Qin Xiaolou was surprised.
Xie Dao Ling sighed and replied: "Yes, our enemy has a Supreme Void Technique that's comparable to the Parallel World Technique"
"In the legends, it is called the One Person Ten Thousand Lives Technique, the second of the three Supreme Void Techniques"
Qin Xiaolou pondered: "One Person Ten Thousand Lives Technique? Why does that sound a bit like Shifu's Incarnation Technique? "
"No, it's completely different, it's an offensive technique …"
While saying that, Xie Dao Ling suddenly slammed the table and solemnly declared: "The situation right now is extremely urgent, we need to think of a way to make the other 'me' come find me right away"
"… Ah … hah?" Qin Xiaolou couldn't react to that right away and looked at Xie Dao Ling in shock.
— — -urgent?
Why did it suddenly jump to the point of extreme urgency?
Xie Dao Ling stood up and hurriedly said: "Disciple, let's go to another city and immediately open our restaurant as the number one spirit cuisine restaurant in the world, only then will the other 'me' come"
"Why aren't we going to find her directly?" Qin Xiaolou asked.
"There's a miraculous power that separates us, we can't find her, we can only lure her to us" Xie Dao Ling replied.
The worry in her eyes became a bit heavier.
The other party has the Flame Spirit Pendant, is a spy, and has the legendary [Supreme Void Technique].
— — how are we going to fight this?
"Don't worry, Shifu, this disciple will immediately go to the next city and reopen the number one brothel in the world!"
Qin Xiaolou patted his chest and declared.
…
At the other side of the world.
The earth was filled with countless tombs and burial mounds. A dark and cold river flowed through the wilderness.
A huge city stood on the banks of the river.
The Heavenly Court!
The long-cheeked skull was charging towards this city — — -
From afar, the blank Apocalyptic power it unleashed had already struck the Heavenly Court.
Oong!
A deep rumbling sound resounded from the Heavenly Court.
The book hovering above the Heavenly Court gave off layers of light to stop the long-cheeked skull's Apocalyptic power.
「 Heh, let's see how much Merit they have to spend 」 Li Yang chuckled.
Every Saint's Chosen in the city appeared to be waiting for a good show.
— — didn't the Heavenly Court attack us?
Great, the Lord of the Starry Sky City has drawn that terrifying Apocalypse just now, let's see how you can still be so arrogant!
The light around the Heavenly Court's outer layer was becoming brighter and brighter, firmly stopping the long-cheeked skull's attack and standing still by the river without moving.
"They sure have a lot of Merit" an evil creature exclaimed.
But even more people laughed.
Continuing to use it like this won't solve the problem.
After all, no matter how much Merit they have — — -
There will always be a time when it runs out.
"They're done for, aren't they?" Shan Hai Qi Xia asked Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan had a strange expression on his face.
As the City Lord, he fully understood the power of the twin cities.
These were the twin cities created by the Samsara, their power unimaginable. However, the twin cities needed to slowly unlock various functions, continuously evolve, and finally become a shelter and weapon of war for all living beings of the Samsara.
At this initial stage, the twin cities were still very fragile, requiring the Saint's Chosen to protect and help them grow.
But the Emperor Of Heaven still didn't make a move.
Why?
Gu Qing Shan's gaze turned grim.
At this point, there was finally some movement.
Layers of colorful clouds manifested from the Heavenly Court, as four Divine Beasts rode on the clouds and quickly flew towards the sky.
They were the Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, Azure Dragon, and White Tiger.
They pulled away from each other, then released a talisman at the same time.
"Suppress!"
The Vermillion Bird shouted.
The four talismans instantly manifested an obscure world that temporarily appeared in the void of space.
"Ah, so it's a Phase Realm, what do they plan to do?"
Gu Qing Shan muttered in a low voice.
A streak of light suddenly shot out from that world, passed through the void of space, and directly struck the long-cheeked skull.
In the blink of an eye, the skull was sucked into that world.
"Withdraw!"
The Azure Dragon shouted.
The four talismans were instantly retracted, caught in the jaws of the four Divine Beasts.
But chaotic streaks of light began to appear on the talismans, as if something was struggling inside.
The four Divine Beasts didn't linger any longer and ran as fast as they could.
They slowly went further and further away, out of everyone's sight.
— — -the Heavenly Court was safe.
The Saint's Chosen still hadn't had enough, so they turned to look at Gu Qing Shan, wanting to see what he was planning to do.
Gu Qing Shan smirked as he walked to the end of the deck and shouted towards the Heavenly Court:
"Oi! You've passed this time "
"But if you dare attack our starry sky city again, I'll summon the Apocalypse again!"
His voice resounded far away, echoing throughout the night sky.
The only response from the Heavenly Court was a cold scoff from the Emperor Of Heaven, but nothing else.
Gu Qing Shan turned around and loudly declared to the Saint's Chosen:
"Alright, you've all watched the show, now go and explore the great tomb"
The Saint's Chosen all moved.
— — -this was the Samsara Clash for Supremacy, and now that the Samsara had created a great tomb, it was a good chance for everyone to earn Merit and unseal their strength.
Who didn't want to regain their strength as soon as possible!
Streaks of light streaked across the sky, landed on the ground, and scattered in every direction.
The same thing happened in the Heavenly Court.
No one cared about the others anymore. Everyone found a direction and flew away quickly.
— — -the exploration of the great tomb had officially begun!
Gu Qing Shan waved his hand at the people around him and said: "I'm going to rest for a bit, you guys go and explore as well"
"Got it" Shan Hai Qi Xia and the others behind her replied.
Gu Qing Shan turned around, found a resting cabin, went in, and closed the door.
He sat down on the cold metal floor.
The smile on his face from before slowly disappeared.
He appeared extremely solemn.
Li Yang directly went through the cabin door and silently landed next to him.
"What's the matter?" she asked caringly.
Gu Qing Shan looked at her.
She's a descendant of a Heaven Immortal, had signed a blood oath with me, and even fought against two Apocalypses together — — -
"… Haven't you noticed that something isn't quite right today?" Gu Qing Shan hesitantly asked.
"What do you mean?" Li Yang asked.
"Emperor Of Heaven didn't use any miraculous powers — — - he's used to using miraculous powers to solve his problems, but in such a crucial moment like today, the moment to shock and awe everyone, he didn't use any miraculous powers" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Perhaps he had some other considerations" Li Yang commented.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I'm very disappointed …"
"Disappointed?" Li Yang was surprised.
"Indeed" Gu Qing Shan continued: "I remember that during the Elemental War, he was able to prepare several methods in advance to take my life — — - and he almost succeeded"
"In the past, he even managed to calculate my Shifu's weakness and stole the position of Emperor Of Heaven, but today, he acted so easily, why is that?"
"I've always treated him as a worthy opponent, so I've always given it my all, wanting to have a good fight with him. But today, his actions were too reckless, he wasn't worthy of fighting me at all, why is that?"
"Such a profound and calculative person, why did he have such a terrible performance today?"
Hearing that, Li Yang couldn't say anything.
She couldn't answer a single one of Gu Qing Shan's questions.
Gu Qing Shan silently sat there, thinking for a long while before his expression changed.
"What … did you think of?" Li Yang asked.
Gu Qing Shan slowly stood up and spoke in a low voice: "This person likes to use multiple strategies at the same time, betting on both sides, no matter which side the enemy chooses, the end result will always be his"
He continued: "Twin cities … to achieve this, there's probably only a single reasonable strategy"
"What strategy?" Li Yang asked.
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
The hesitation and confusion on his body disappeared and was replaced by a murderous intent and determination. "The true Emperor Of Heaven is hiding in our Star River City"
He finally said.
