All the light above the Devil King Warden Rod disappeared.
A deck of cards appeared in front of everyone.
Cards?
Everyone had the same question in their minds.
What's coming next should be the strongest battle of the 18 layers of hell, why did a deck of cards appear?
They couldn't believe what they were seeing.
It really was a deck of cards.
The deck of cards was stacked on top of each other, the surface of each card was a deathly grey.
The very top card had already been flipped over.
It was a scenery.
The wilderness.
The ocean.
The moonlight illuminated the night sky.
A large ship was docked on the shore.
18 Combatants stood on the ship, surrounding a scepter.
"What's going on?" someone asked, confused.
The card hovered in the air, then stopped.
"It seems to be a Law related to God's Chosen" one of the Combatants muttered.
"A single card pulled all of us into this, that's impossible" another Combatant spoke without hesitation.
"Hmph, what do you know …"
The first Combatant didn't say anything else after saying that.
But his expression was a lot more serious.
Gu Qing Shan was also a lot more serious.
To be able to use a single card to create a small world, as well as hold a lot of dead people fighting inside, this God's Chosen Law's ability to create things is unimaginably powerful.
The first card was still hovering in the air, not moving at all.
18 cards flew out from the pile, hovering in front of each Combatant.
They looked at their own cards, then at the others.
Very quickly, they noticed that the cards in front of them depicted themselves in a deep sleep.
While the others' cards naturally depicted other people in a deep sleep.
At this point, the Devil King Warden Rod still remained silent.
It didn't give any more hints.
Everything that happened was too strange.
The 18 Combatants carefully looked at the cards in front of them, not knowing what to do.
"So it's a dreamscape card" Gu Qing Shan silently thought.
At the same time, a few Combatants also had their own thoughts.
The Devil King Warden Rod was related to God's Chosen, this was something that no one could've thought of.
Gu Qing Shan recalled her past life — — at the time, there were indeed a few excellent God's Chosen who were able to turn their God's Chosen Skills into cards.
But no one has ever been able to do what they're seeing.
People fought in a card, and then a new card appeared in the card, and the new card could bring people into a dream.
There are cards in cards.
What would happen next?
Gu Qing Shan pondered.
He suddenly burst into laughter.
Possessing such inconceivable power to construct a world and a dream, it would be a walk in the park for the other party to kill them.
Under such circumstances, there was really nothing to think about.
There was no turning back.
He reached out and touched the card in front of him.
"This card is a dream. You need to enter it to find out what's inside," Gu Qing Shan reminded the Seventh Commander.
While the commanders were still hesitating, Gu Qing Shan had already disappeared.
Suddenly, he was sucked into the card.
The seventeen experts were startled.
"Interesting, I'll also go take a look" the female Asura said.
She touched her card and disappeared in an instant.
Then, the other powerhouses followed suit and touched their cards one after another.
Of the 18 powerhouses, only two remained.
"Why didn't you go in?" one of them asked.
"This must be a trap, if we go in, wouldn't we just be waiting to be slaughtered?" the other replied.
"That makes sense … but the first card was already shown to us, the other party's strength is enough to create a world, if that's the case …" the first person pondered.
He suddenly reached his hand out and touched the card.
And now, there was only one person left.
He stood alone on the deck of the ship.
Those people were too careless and got sucked into the card just like that.
— — -should I go in and take a look as well?
Just as he was hesitating, his figure disappeared from the first card floating in the air.
He also disappeared from the ship.
The first person to be eliminated was born.
On the other side.
Gu Qing Shan's feet landed on the ground.
Dim light.
Soothing, soothing music.
Whispers, laughter, and the sound of toasting.
"Sir, what would you like to drink?" the bartender politely asked.
Gu Qing Shan didn't answer and quickly looked around.
This was a bar.
It's familiar. I remember it.
I'm standing in front of the bar.
He suddenly saw Ye Fei Li and Liao Xing.
The two of them were sitting at a booth, talking and drinking.
"Sir?" the bartender hesitantly asked.
Gu Qing Shan pointed at a bottle.
"Very well, please wait a moment"
The bartender skillfully opened the bottle, took out a glass, and poured it for him.
Gu Qing Shan sat down on a chair in front of the bar.
All of a sudden, a lazy, hoarse voice resounded in his ears.
"Someone's been eliminated"
Gu Qing Shan turned around.
At some unknown point, a black-robed man was sitting next to him.
Gu Qing Shan recalled what happened just now.
This person had appeared out of thin air, without any sound or movement.
Gu Qing Shan pondered: "Did you create this place?"
"No, this place was created by both you and me" the black-robed man replied.
He received two glasses of liquor from the bartender and put one in front of Gu Qing Shan.
"What do you mean?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"My rule is to create an environment that will make you feel the most comfortable"
The black-robed man seemed a bit helpless: "You seem to have a lot of pressure in your life, I've spent a lot of time picking out the rules of the Cards, only to find this place to relax"
He raised his glass.
Gu Qing Shan raised her glass and clinked it with the black-robed man.
The two of them drank the wine.
"This liquor is still as spicy as ever, if I didn't know beforehand, I would've thought this was reality" Gu Qing Shan commented.
The black-robed man smiled: "As long as you're happy, this environment is the reward for becoming the strongest person in a layer of hell"
"That's not all, I feel like you're guarding against something" Gu Qing Shan looked straight into his eyes and said.
In a corner of the bar, Liao Xing and Ye Fei Li's gaze passed by him, but didn't react.
It was like they were looking at a stranger.
"You can tell? Only you and I can enter this place, it's a secret room, no one can spy on us "
The black-robed man said.
He appeared tired and old, the wrinkles on his face were clearly visible under the light.
Gu Qing Shan put her glass down: "Then, what should we do now?"
"A few small questions, something like truth or dare"
Saying so, the black-robed man picked up a thick book.
He then took out a card from the book.
This card was casually placed on the table.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the card.
The card depicted a man in formal attire, kneeling on one knee with a bouquet of flowers in his hand, talking to a beautiful woman about something.
The beautiful woman's expression was full of joy as she listened, seemingly intoxicated by his sweet words. But the hand behind her back was holding a skull.
"Relax, as long as you're telling the truth, this card of mine won't do anything" the black-robed man said.
"What if I'm lying?"
"You can take a look at that skull"
"Understood"
The black-robed man cleared his throat: "Then, let us begin"
"Are you single?" he asked.
"Ah … sort of"
"Sort of?"
"We haven't officially established our relationship yet" Gu Qing Shan said uncomfortably.
The black-robed man looked at the card on the table.
It didn't do anything.
"Then, do you have any friends?"
"I do"
"Can they be trusted?"
"They can be trusted"
"What kind of sports do you like?"
"Ball sports"
"Do you have any special hobbies?"
"I'm a decent cook, my beef ribs have been featured in a national food competition"
"Talented, are your parents still alive?"
"They're not"
"I'm sorry"
The black-robed man also felt that his question was a bit trivial, so he explained: "I need to understand how deeply you're tied to the world"
He took a card from the book and looked at it.
It was a blank card with a row of constantly changing numbers on it.
"Your profession" the black-robed man continued to ask.
"Scientist"
The black-robed man was a bit confused: "Back on the ship, you mentioned that killing is your profession, so you're different from those killer wraiths …"
"My apologies, in real life, my profession is a scientist, but in combat, my profession is a sword cultivator"
"Sword cultivator, tch, it's been a long time since I've heard of that title, how nostalgic"
Saying so, the black-robed man looked down at the card in his hand that only had a number on it.
A single number on the card remained still.
97。
"97 — — a very good result, you're closely connected to your world, and neither of you are willing to lose the other"
The black-robed man smiled.
"And you're a sword cultivator, hm, a sword cultivator that could become a Lord of a Hell, I'm sure your fighting strength is quite decent as well"
"Very well, congratulations, you've passed the first round"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused.
I passed the first round just like that?
I'm fighting in a card, and there's also a dreamscape card in this card.
After entering the dreamscape card, there's another person holding a card book, using cards to test me.
While he was thinking, the black-robed man had already drawn six cards from the book.
The black-robed man quickly put the six cards together to form a large card.
On this card, there was a scene of a great war.
Wraiths, Divinities, Beast Kings, Asuras, forming an unprecedented army.
They were discussing on the cards, holding a vow ceremony.
A Divinity stood on top of a podium, loudly declaring something.
The warriors of the four worlds were fully armored and raised their weapons high up in the air.
The next scene was them rushing into the world of Huang Quan.
The Grand Tie Wei Mountain that hasn't moved for over ten thousand years cracked open.
The dead from the 18 layers of hell charged out.
The vanguard of both sides clashed.
The war had begun.
Gu Qing Shan only looked at it from afar, but he could already feel a sense of grandeur.
Countless tragic songs and heroic deeds were being sung at every moment.
The black-robed man raised this card with an apologetic expression.
"I don't know if you can endure this level of war, but to become the Devil King, you must enter the next dreamscape and witness that era"
"This is the second round?"
"That's right"
"Then let's go."
