The two girls left.
Shannu stayed behind, standing next to Gu Qing Shan.
The white fox looked at Shannu.
Gu Qing Shan explained: "She's my sword"
The white fox nodded to express his understanding.
"I've made my choice" Gu Qing Shan continued.
"Indeed, this is the wisest choice"
The white fox slowly spoke: "In the lives of all living beings, there are very few chances for them to change their own fate. A few try their best to seize this chance, while others are muddle-headed and spend their lives in vain"
"I thought such a thing wouldn't happen in a higher-level world like yours" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Although the world is different, the nature of living beings is the same — — - that's why I despise those trash and respect every being that tries their best, no matter how small or great they are, no matter if they succeed in changing their fate or not"
"Thank you for your kind words"
"No need to thank me, because I've been through the same thing"
The white fox smiled and continued, "Since you've made your choice, then I can begin to confirm this matter."
All the tails on the back of the white fox spread out, forming a shining circle.
This circle formed a gate of light.
A few moments later, a dignified voice came from inside the gate of light.
"What is it?"
"I've applied to add one more person to the observation team, granting them the qualification to become a Rakshasa candidate"
The dignified voice calmed down a bit and spoke: "It seems the newcomer you mentioned before has received your approval"
"Yes, his performance exceeded expectations."
"There's such a newcomer? But I've just checked, there's only one vacancy for Rakshasa "
Both of them went silent.
"That's why, we'll need to choose one of the two" the dignified voice continued.
"I have no objections"
"Let's start the trial again"
"Very well, then what are the conditions for a Rakshasa to be chosen this time?" the white fox asked.
"Is the world on your side about to be destroyed?"
"Indeed, the Old God's body was stolen by the demons, the sun, moon and stars were eaten, even the earth itself is about to be emptied"
"This level is enough … Then let the two Rakshasa candidates try to survive when the world is destroyed. The one who survives to the end will be promoted to an official Rakshasa."
"Is that okay?" the white fox asked.
The dignified voice said: "After becoming a Rakshasa, you will more or less face this kind of situation"
"That's true. It's decided then."
The White Fox then asked, "What's the situation now?"
The dignified voice said, "The situation is somewhat unfavorable for us."
"Do you want me to come back?" the white fox asked worriedly.
"There's no need for now. We can handle it. Hurry up and choose someone to join our team," said the dignified voice.
"Alright, that's settled then."
"Take care."
"Take care."
The sound faded away.
The door of light dissipated.
"You heard everything?" White Fox asked.
"Yes, I want to live longer than anyone else when this world collapses" Gu Qing Shan said.
"This is the most basic requirement to become a Rakshasa. I hope you understand."
White Fox added: "Rakshasa, to a certain degree, can know the secrets of the Outer Plane and obtain unique powers"
Gu Qing Shan seriously listened, didn't say anything and only nodded.
The white fox mused: "From strength, influence, knowledge, skills, and other aspects, the other Rakshasa candidate has a great advantage, while you have none of them, so I'll explain a few things to you"
"Go ahead, I'm listening" Gu Qing Shan said.
The white fox cleared his throat and said: "I need to explain a certain concept to you. Our organization is located in the Middle Layer of the billions of worlds"
"Middle Layer?"
"Our world is the Middle Layer of the Outer Plane. Compared to this world and the worlds you've been to, our strength and knowledge is something you can't even imagine"
"If that's the case, then the world I'm currently in is the Inner Plane?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"No, no, no, that's not it"
The white fox said.
Gu Qing Shan didn't understand.
The white fox thought about how to phrase it and slowly explained.
"The worlds that we've been to can be divided into three layers, the Outer Plane, the Middle Layer, and the Inner Plane"
"The worlds in the Outer Plane are the weakest, they're often directly destroyed by the demons"
"The worlds in the Middle Layer are a bit stronger. For example, our world is in this layer, so we can fight against the demons to a certain degree"
"Our world is no longer afraid of normal demons and Demon Lords"
"As for the worlds in the Inner Plane, the weaker Demon Lords don't even dare to disturb them, only the strongest Demon Lords dare to descend there and fight against the worlds of that layer"
"Just like how you can't even imagine my power, the power of the living beings in the Inner Plane is also something I can't imagine"
"These three layers are collectively referred to as the Outer Plane"
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan felt that this was starting to match up with the Shen Wu world's coordinates that she saw.
From the spatial coordinates, Shen Wu world and the Suspended world aren't on the same level.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "The worlds that I've been to, are they the weakest of the three, the Outer Plane?"
"That's not right"
The white fox looked at him meaningfully and spoke: "They don't belong to any of the three Outer Planes"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused: "Which Plane do they belong to?"
"They're outside of the Outer Plane, they're the weakest worlds"
"As long as the demons are willing to put in the effort, those worlds are like scattered sparks that can be easily extinguished at any moment"
"Because of that, the worlds that you've come into contact with are also known as scattered worlds — — they can return to zero at any moment"
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
He never thought that the truth would be like this.
"According to what you said, the Outer Plane is divided into three layers?" he asked further.
"That's not true" the white fox sighed, "the worlds are so vast that even the ruler of the Inner Plane wouldn't dare to say how many layers there are"
The white fox had a look of reminiscence on its face as it said: "Legend has it that in the Inner Surface World, there was once a World Lord who used 36 worlds as a price to invite an unspeakable powerhouse to speak"
"That Combatant took 36 worlds, but didn't answer the previous question"
"What question?"
"How did the term 'Outer Plane' come to be?"
"That Combatant took the reward, but couldn't answer the question. Feeling embarrassed, he told me a secret"
"What secret?"
"How many World Layers are there in the entire Outer Plane?"
The white fox smiled: "Take a guess, how many Layers are there in the Outer Plane?"
Gu Qing Shan tried asking: "10?"
"Wrong"
The white fox cleared his throat and began to explain.
"The entire Outer Plane is divided into 900 million Layers"
"The Outer Plane, Middle Plane, and Inner Plane are only the three outermost Layers"
"There are 900 million World Layers — — - each of those World Layers contains billions of independent worlds"
"That Combatant said that this is common knowledge of the Outer Plane, and that's all he knew"
"As for the origin of the term 'Outer Plane', that Combatant also didn't know"
"Do you understand? This time, to test the newcomer, we purposely chose a world that was about to be destroyed among the scattered worlds "
"That's why you had the chance to meet me"
"If you missed this chance, it would be impossible for you to go through the trillions of worlds in the Outer Plane and come into contact with us in the Middle Plane"
