The Fire Mountain world.
Solidified greyish black rocks covered the ground.
Lava flowed everywhere.
Occasionally, smoke would rise to the sky following the eruption of volcanoes, shrouding the land.
— — this was a world full of volcanoes, all of which were in a state of eruption at any moment, which was how this world got its name.
Normally, no one would be willing to come to a world with such a harsh environment.
But now, every few breaths' worth of time, the sky of this world would split open, followed by powerful presences descending from above.
— — -more and more people were coming to this world, all of them powerful Professionists.
The seven Holy Churches once issued a Divine Oracle, declaring that whoever catches the Blasphemer Gu Qing Shan will be granted the right to ascend to Godhood.
Other than that, there was another — — -
The Blasphemer's friend, a hitman called Jang Young-ho, was also on the wanted list of the seven Holy Churches.
Anyone who killed him would be rewarded by the seven Holy Churches, granting them power and wealth that transcended the mortal realm.
Everyone in the 900 million World Layers was madly searching for Gu Qing Shan, but Gu Qing Shan still hadn't shown up.
— — -since this person managed to escape the judgment of the Gods, he must have his own unique abilities, making it impossible to find him so easily, otherwise, the Divine Oracle wouldn't have mentioned ascension to Godhood.
After a while, everyone still couldn't find anything.
So everyone turned their attention to Jang Young-ho.
Compared to Gu Qing Shan, this person's whereabouts weren't completely impossible to find.
More and more people were chasing after Jang Young-ho.
And now, Jang Young-ho's whereabouts have finally been exposed.
He's in the Fire Mountain world!
Everyone went crazy.
As long as they can kill him, they'll receive unprecedented rewards from the seven Holy Churches!
Combatants from all walks of life rushed to this world and began a thorough search.
At this moment, in a certain shadow canyon in this world.
A Holy Church had just been constructed.
Clergymen from the seven Holy Churches knelt at the foot of the statue and began to report to their God.
"By the Gods above, we report to you"
"After the news was released, more and more people came to this world, reaching its peak about 9 hours ago"
"More and more Combatants are coming"
"As time passed, the number of Professionists that came to the Fire Mountain world had decreased in the last half an hour"
"I'm afraid most of the people who can come are already here."
After they finished reporting, they quietly waited for further instructions from the gods.
Several breaths later.
Suddenly, a gray light appeared on the statue.
This was a miracle, which meant that the gods had responded to the report.
The clergy crouched even lower.
They didn't even dare to raise their heads.
According to the teachings of the Seven Demon Gods, looking directly at the gods was a serious blasphemy.
Suddenly, a rumbling voice resounded in the temple.
"In other words, those who are closer have already arrived?"
One of the clergymen replied: "Yes, Supreme God, just as you said, there are only a few who are still descending upon this world"
The voice did not ring out for a long time.
But the gray light was still there, which meant that the god had not left.
The clergymen remained motionless, kneeling on the ground until the voice rang out again:
"This time, I spent a lot of effort to seal off the entire world. I don't think that guy will be able to escape."
It muttered to itself.
The God Race?
What did God mean by the Divine Race?
The clergymen of the various Holy Churches doubtfully thought.
A few moments later, the rumbling voice resounded again:
「 You have done well, I am very pleased 」
The clergymen quickly let go of their thoughts and loudly declared in unison: "For the sake of God, we are willing to offer our lives and everything else"
These were words used to express their loyalty.
However, the god then said something else that stunned everyone:
「 Those who should have come have already arrived in this world, the time is almost up, so you are no longer useful. Now, offer your lives 」
The voice sighed and continued: 「 You have indeed done a good job, but that guy always likes to take on other people's appearances and is full of cunning, I can't trust anyone in this world 」
Before the clergymen could think too much, they felt a sharp pain as the entire world was plunged into eternal darkness.
The Holy Church was deathly silent.
Everyone died at the same time.
Only the howling wind from the canyon could be heard passing through the Holy Church.
A while later.
Three figures appeared in the Holy Church.
The Abyssal Magic Dragon.
Standing next to him were two people with a burning flame between their eyebrows.
— — the Divine race.
After the Earth Creator died, the Abyssal Magic Dragon found the Divine race Soul Artifacts that Gu Qing Shan created and subdued them after they awakened their self-awareness.
Gu Qing Shan definitely didn't realize that the weapons she used to fight against the Magic Dragon and the Soul Shrieker had already become the Abyssal Magic Dragon's subordinates.
The Abyssal Magic Dragon silently sensed the various fluctuations of battle in this world and took a deep breath:
"I can smell the scent of death. Today, right here, death shall bloom according to my will"
The two Divinities knelt on one knee and respectfully said: "God Lord, please give your orders"
The Magic Dragon said: "Go, take your subordinates and seal this entire world, only allow entry, not exit"
One of the Divinities said: "If we run into that person — — -"
The Magic Dragon said: "Kill him, he isn't a match for you right now"
"Yes!"
The two Divinities accepted their orders and left.
The Abyssal Magic Dragon stood alone in the divine temple.
He waited for a while longer.
It wasn't until there weren't any more descenders or airships in the sky that he began to act.
— — his entire body began to expand, turning into a sturdy grey dragon hide.
In just one breath's worth of time, his body had expanded to the size of the divine temple.
In two breaths' worth of time, the Magic Dragon's body had grown to the size of a volcano.
In three breaths' worth of time, the Magic Dragon's body gave off a greyish white flame, his gigantic body had already surpassed the entire river.
He appeared on the surface of this world, taking up an area of several hundred kilometers.
The Abyssal Magic Dragon stretched his body a bit, then abruptly flew up into the sky.
He stared at the vast land below, as well as the fearful Combatants.
Combatants?
Hah!
The Abyssal Magic Dragon smirked ferociously.
「 Gu Qing Shan, no matter who you turn into, no matter where you hide, as long as you receive the news and come to save that person, you will not escape 」
「 I will kill every living being in this world, and you will definitely be one of them 」
「 I'd like to see just how you're going to hide! 」
The Magic Dragon roared and breathed out a cluster of grey flames from his mouth.
Boom!!!!
The grey flames pierced through the ground, causing lava to erupt from deep underground.
The world began to tremble and collapse.
…
Let's rewind time a bit.
Two hours ago.
The Seaside World's Nightshade bar.
In the secret room of the bar. Gu Qing Shan put the colorful rooster statue away.
This thing had been granted information by the War God UI, so it would give her a piece of information every day.
But Gu Qing Shan didn't check the information right away.
— — -since I've already obtained this thing, there's no need to be in a hurry.
He began to read Jang Young-ho's dossier.
After all, I'm about to save Jang Young-ho, so I have to plan it out in detail.
The dossier recorded Jang Young-ho's combat characteristics, his previous pursuits and counter-pursuits, his route of action, the Divinities' bounty, the situation of the Fire Mountain world, everything was written in great detail.
Gu Qing Shan seriously read through it for a while before closing the dossier.
"Are we leaving?" Lin asked.
"Yes" Gu Qing Shan nodded.
The two of them left the secret room, the bar, and returned to the main street.
After following Gu Qing Shan for a while, Lin noticed that something wasn't right.
"Gu Qing Shan, why are you heading towards the hotel again?" she asked.
"To book a room" Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
"I said I wanted to come with you to save him" Lin calmly replied.
"We're not going, we're returning to the hotel"
"Hm? Did you give up on him because the rescue mission was too difficult? "
"That's not it"
Gu Qing Shan sent her voice: "I've checked the map of the infinite worlds, that place isn't too far away from the Gemini star, and it's also very close to where we are, so we're not going"
Lin was surprised and couldn't help but ask: "You suspect it's a trap? Just because of that? "
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Of course there are other reasons as well — — for example, not long after we separated from Magic Dragon, this shocking incident happened here"
He showed a contemplative smile: "Don't you think it's a coincidence?"
"There are a lot of coincidences in this world" Lin replied.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "When it comes to murder, any coincidences are nothing more than clumsy arrangements that would only make a veteran laugh"
Lin was confused: "So you're not going because it's too close and too coincidental?"
"There are a lot of reasons, for example … the bar owner just said that the other world can only be entered, not exited"
"That's only natural, otherwise, who would be able to catch him?" Lin continued.
"But there aren't a lot of organizations that have the ability to seal off that world and forbid everyone from leaving" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Lin was a bit surprised.
That's right, only a gigantic organization like the Holy Church has the ability to seal off space and force everyone to stay.
The other organizations with authority … basically wouldn't do such a thing, because they don't have the support of a terrifying entity like the Abyssal Magic Dragon.
The 7 Holy Churches currently belong to the Magic Dragon.
After a moment of silence, Lin couldn't help but ask: "Then, you're not going to save Jang Young-ho?"
Gu Qing Shan slowly replied: "Other than walking into a trap, I have many other ways to find him"
He strode in the direction of the hotel.
Lin watched his back with a complicated expression.
"… How sly …"
She muttered and chased after him.
