— — -the siege had begun!
The giant nine-clawed golden dragon was heading straight for Starry Sky City.
Behind the battering ram, the heavenly beings of the Heavenly Court followed closely behind it like a black cloud, waiting to break through the steel barrier of Starry Sky City and destroy everything!
But Gu Qing Shan had only just returned.
In that split second, he only had time to do one thing — — -
"Page, activate [Intermediate City Concealment]!"
Gu Qing Shan shouted.
— — -Intermediate City Concealment
[Note: By gathering everyone's Merit, the entire Starry Sky City will completely disappear from the void of space. No entity would be able to discover or attack Starry Sky City]
In the void of space above Starry Sky City, the page lightly trembled.
Instantly, the invisible power of the Samsara Origins flowed down from the page and landed on Starry Sky City.
Bam!
Starry Sky City completely disappeared.
At the very next moment, the nine-clawed golden dragon hammer passed through Starry Sky City in an unstoppable manner, stirring up intense gusts of wind.
It flew straight into the sky, heading straight for the end of the world.
That was close!
If he was a second later, Starry Sky City would have been hit!
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.
"We're safe for now" he turned to Li An.
Only to see that Li An was also in a state of shock.
Once Starry Sky City was destroyed, all the Chosen Saints of Starry Sky City would have no choice but to scatter around the great tomb without any shelter.
Gu Qing Shan looked towards the city.
There wasn't a single person in Starry Sky City, everyone had gone to explore the great tomb to accumulate Merit.
— — -so this was a deliberate ambush by the Heavenly Court.
"I tried many methods but couldn't contact you. It was a good thing that you returned in time, otherwise, Starry Sky City would have been destroyed by them" Li An told him.
"Hm, I also had a bad feeling, so I hurried back" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He stared closely at Li An, only to see a line of glowing text floating above her head:
"How lucky, otherwise, once the city was destroyed, everything would have been over"
This was Li An's thought.
Gu Qing Shan used his soul to observe her thoughts.
Outside the Starry Sky City, the immortals all retreated and returned to the Celestial Court.
— — Since Starry Sky City was already on guard, it would not be so easy to take it down.
The Emperor Of Heaven's vexed voice came from afar.
"Gu Qing Shan, you came back in time this time. But next time, you might not be so lucky."
Gu Qing Shan fell into silence and did not respond immediately.
The Real Emperor Of Heaven …
It was very tricky.
The real Emperor Of Heaven went to explore the tombs of the mortal world.
The fake Emperor Of Heaven stared at Starry Sky City.
Once he left the Starry Sky City, he would give the fake Emperor Of Heaven an opportunity.
He could attack the city at any moment.
However, if he continued to guard Starry Sky City, he would be able to keep Starry Sky City safe. However, the real Emperor Of Heaven would continue to explore the tombs of the mortal world. His progress would continue to deepen and he would leave him far behind.
He couldn't leave, but he couldn't stay either, he was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Gu Qing Shan paced back and forth on the deck of the ship. Various thoughts flashed through his mind as he tried to come up with a plan.
「 What are you thinking about? 」 Li An asked.
"We can't just passively take a beating, we need to retaliate" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 You're the City Lord, you can summon everyone back and attack the Celestial Court together, what do you think? 」 Li An suggested.
"I can't …" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The real Emperor Of Heaven might have disguised himself and joined Starry Sky City.
As soon as I summon him, he will immediately know.
The Emperor Of Heaven is an old monster who has lived for who knows how many years, he has countless tricks up his sleeve. If I want to attack the Celestial Court, it's best not to let him know.
Then — — -
I can only rely on myself to complete this siege.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan looked up at the page in the sky.
"I want to level up Starry Sky City."
He silently muttered in his mind.
The page instantly gave off a great consciousness that responded to Gu Qing Shan's request.
At the same time, lines of crimson text appeared in the void of space:
[Total Merit Points of all personnel in Starry Sky City:]
"Three hundred sixty-eight thousand."
[Available city abilities are as follows:]
[…]
Gu Qing Shan continued to choose from the various city abilities, but still couldn't come to a decision.
— — -there are a lot of Apocalypses roaming the wilderness right now.
That long-cheeked skull might return at any time.
So even though he had 368,000 Merit, it didn't mean that he could use all of it.
Gu Qing Shan was truly faced with a choice.
Either he could reserve some Merit for the page to help defend the city.
Or he could directly use up all of his Merit to choose a powerful ability to attack the Celestial Court.
— — -what should I choose?
Gu Qing Shan carefully studied the various city abilities, pondered for a long time, and finally chose two.
[Attack, target: Celestial Court!]
Gu Qing Shan ordered.
Above Starry Sky City, the page began to give off a blinding light, seemingly prepared.
[Choose a method of attack — —]
[Unique repelling weapon: Big Stinky Egg!]
Outside Void City, a sticky mass of dark green substance appeared.
「 What is that? 」 Li An asked.
"Big Stinky Egg, a relatively cheap repelling weapon" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Attack!"
He ordered.
The sticky mass instantly flew towards the Celestial Court — — -
Bam!
Like a lump of mud, the Big Stinky Egg stuck to the defensive barrier of the Celestial Court without flying into the Celestial Court.
「 It was blocked! 」 Li An couldn't help but exclaim.
"Don't worry, just wait a moment" Gu Qing Shan told her.
His gaze stopped in the void of space as he stared at the line of text:
[Unique repelling weapon: Big Stinky Egg]
[A unique weapon with an incomparably foul stench, the combination of every foul stench known to the Samsara, no method would be able to stop its smell. It is unbearable for all living beings, even the most ferocious apocalyptic monsters would not be able to stay close to it and immediately flee]
[Can be used once per day, lasts for half an hour each time]
At this point, there was already a commotion in the Celestial Court.
"It stinks!" a heavenly being exclaimed.
He rode on a cloud and quickly fled into the wilderness.
The other heavenly beings quickly followed him, not daring to stay for even a second longer as they all flew into the distance.
The Emperor Of Heaven angrily shouted: "Return — — -"
He couldn't finish his words.
— — -fuck!
That's truly an intolerable smell.
"Prepare the carriage! We're going to hide for now "the Emperor Of Heaven loudly shouted.
The remaining heavenly beings all covered their noses and hurriedly followed the Emperor Of Heaven out of the Celestial Court, quickly flying into the distance.
Li An observed the putrid mass of foul stench.
It stuck to the void of space outside the Celestial Court, then slowly spread out and rolled down.
It looked like a pile of shit, just looking at it made anyone feel uncomfortable, let alone the heavenly beings who smelled it.
「 What's the point of this? Without killing a single person, the Celestial Court would still be fine 」 Li An asked.
"Hm, this is the cheapest function, I think those heavenly beings are looking down on this ability" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 Then, you have other plans? 」 Li An asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I've also developed a city function, I'm waiting for them to run away — — -"
While they were talking, the Interstellar City began to move.
The metallic city walls quickly combined and transformed into a gigantic Mech over a few hundred meters tall.
「 This is — — 」 Li An was surprised.
"I've used up almost all of my Merit, whether or not I'll be able to succeed will depend on this" Gu Qing Shan replied.
— — – I can't let the fake Emperor Of Heaven continue to play tricks in the shadows.
I need to fully focus on exploring the tomb of the human realm, so I need to deal with the threat of the Interstellar City.
While I'm back, I need to settle this once and for all with the Celestial Court!
Gu Qing Shan stood still in the void of space, his attitude unprecedentedly serious.
The metallic ground opened up, letting out a faint layer of light that lightly enveloped his body.
A cold mechanical voice resounded:
[The Mech has been enveloped, please begin to take control of the Interstellar Mobile Mech]
"Roger that, beginning control"
Gu Qing Shan took a step forward in the air.
The Mech that was the Interstellar City also took a step forward.
"[Vanishing Axe]" Gu Qing Shan uttered in a low voice.
In the void of space, a blinding light gathered in the Mech's hand, turning into a flickering gigantic [Vanishing Axe].
"Go!"
Gu Qing Shan made a running motion with the axe in his hand.
The Interstellar Mech also followed his movements, gripping the axe tightly as it headed straight for the Celestial Court!
The Mech was moving faster and faster, each step it took caused the ground to tremble.
Seeing this, Li An felt like her heart was about to jump out of her throat.
At this point, the Mech was still in its [Mid-Level City Concealment] state.
In other words — —
From the Interstellar City turning into a Mech, to taking out the giant axe, and then sprinting forward, the Celestials of the Celestial Court had no idea what was going on.
Li An couldn't control her voice any longer and screamed: "You're — — -"
"That's right, I'm going to destroy this Celestial Court" Gu Qing Shan angrily shouted.
He abruptly stopped, raised both hands up, and made a throwing motion.
The Interstellar Mech stopped on the ground, just outside of the rotten egg's range of influence — — -
The Mech raised the [Vanishing Axe] and threw it towards the Celestial Court!
