Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God Chapter 195

Gu Nan was actually very familiar with personal dungeons.

The Evil God game was a single-player game where certain content could also be played with other players, and personal dungeons were the basis for players to form parties.

From Tier 5 onwards, players would start to possess personal dungeons. Players could use their own laws to modify the dungeon, then put the modified product on a public platform for other players to challenge.

But before this kind of personal dungeon could be released to the public, the creator had to clear the dungeon once first. Moreover, after the dungeon was released, the creator would no longer be able to earn any rewards from participating in that dungeon.

The other was a random dungeon—that is, after the player makes the dungeon public, the system will randomly modify it so that not even the player will know what it'll be changed into.

What Gu Nan was facing now seemed to correspond to one of the game's random dungeons.

Gu Nan and his three companions stood on the roof of the building. There was a blood-red countdown timer in midair, which was counting down the last 30 seconds.

"You mean, the Myriad Heavens Starry Road will generate missions for this dun— for this small world based on my knowledge and experience?" Gu Nan asked with a strange expression.

"Exactly." Qiu Wenran nodded.

Gu Nan turned his head and focused on the timer, but his gaze became more and more odd.

After a cursory exchange with Qiu Wenran and the other two, Gu Nan received so much information at once that he still didn't process it fully yet.

These three were indeed all Star Rulers at Tier 5 or perhaps even higher—they were genuine Star Rulers!

According to Qiu Wenran, he himself had been a Star Ruler for “only” 4,000 years, and he hadn't had time to choose which world to take charge of yet.

As for Zi Yi and Zuo Zuo, both of them were veteran experts on the Myriad Heavens Starry Road. They were genuine big shots.

'The Star Ruler Realm corresponds to Tier 5, and starting from Tier 5, the player will begin to look for a dungeon to modify into their own Divine Kingdom… Sure enough, this process is exactly the same as the one in the game!' Gu Nan secretly rubbed his chin and thought to himself.

'Normally, I should only be able to enter this world after reaching Tier 5 and owning a personal dungeon, but since the Evil God Temple devoured this world's origin, this step arrived ahead of schedule.'

'This ahead of schedule caused me to meet fellows at Tier 5 or higher when I'm only Tier 3…'

Fortunately, according to Qiu Wenran, only a wisp of their consciousness entered the Myriad Heavens Starry Road; it couldn't even be considered a portion of their soul, so Star Rulers couldn't really hurt each other in this world.

Even if they were killed, their bodies would be recreated by laws in the blink of an eye, and they would be completely unharmed.

'Even the mechanism where dungeons can be attempted infinitely has been retained. This really is similar…' Gu Nan sighed lightly, and the countdown in mid-air was almost over.

The Myriad Heavens Starry Road replaced the game system, and Star Rulers replaced other players—only Gu Nan was still himself.

"If the missions really are created from my knowledge,” Gu Nan spoke up at the very last second, "then everyone, please be mentally prepared. This map might be a bit rough."

The next second, the countdown reached zero, and the curtain of blood suddenly descended.

The entire sky turned blood red, and the originally noisy city seemed to suddenly fall silent for a moment. A line of words was written in the sky with blood.

｢First Phase: Arrive at the destination

Victory Conditions: All four players must survive

Finish before the timer reaches zero

Power Restriction: Tier 2 ｣

Before Gu Nan could sigh with emotion at these familiar words, an inexplicable force descended upon them, and everyone's strength instantly dropped all the way down to Tier 2.

Qiu Wenran and the two others were dumbfounded. It wasn't the first time they entered a mission world through the Myriad Heavens Starry Road, but how could there be a mission that would restrict their power to this extent?

They may not know what Tier 2 meant, but it was clear that their powers had just been suppressed to the Innate Realm.

They couldn't even fly at Innate Realm!

Just as the three of them were still in a daze, Gu Nan shouted loudly, "Run!"

His three party members subconsciously looked up and saw Gu Nan running rapidly towards the edge of the roof, then jumping off directly. This made them frown at the same time.

This was the roof of a building nearly 100 meters high. Of course they wouldn't normally care about the height, but their powers were currently only at Innate Realm…

In the instant it took them to hesitate, the crimson curtain in the sky suddenly thickened.

The next second, a meteorite fell from the sky and smashed into the roof of the building.

Gu Nan looked at the three people who'd been annihilated simultaneously and shook his head helplessly.

"What in the world is going on?!”

"Meteorites? Who would ever expect such a situation?!”

"Is something wrong with the Myriad Heavens Starry Road? It's clearly screwing us over!"

Everyone had reappeared on the roof of the building, and the blood-red timer was counting down as usual. Qiu Wenran was angrily growling, while Gu Nan stood by and yawned.

"It's just a starting point kill. What's so strange about that? You'll learn after being screwed over once." Gu Nan waved his hand and said, "I'm afraid you'll go crazy when you encounter a destination kill later on."

In the end, Qiu Wenran was still an old monster who had lived for thousands of years. After he vented his anger, he also calmed down and apologized to the three people in embarrassment.

Zuo Zuo and Zi Yi exchanged glances and looked at Gu Nan simultaneously.

"We aren't the owners of this world. Although we don't fear physical death, the time that our consciousness can stay in the Myriad Heavens Starry Road is limited," Zi Yi spoke with a smile, wearing all purple clothes.

“So if you have any suggestions for this mission, you might as well say them, and we can discuss them together."

Zuo Zuo had spoken up this time. His left and right sides were independent of each other, and even the left and right sides of his mouth opened and closed at different times when he was speaking. But his voice just had to sound perfectly normal, like that of an ordinary child, so he looked very strange.

Gu Nan frowned slightly but didn't refuse. Since the four of them were now teammates, they had a common interest, so there was really no need to hide anything.

"Right now, I also don't know any other information besides the starting point kill, so I can only test this map slowly… However, from the goal of the First Phase, this phase should be a parkour map."

"Parkour map?" Qiu Wenran obviously didn't understand the meaning of those two words.

"It requires us to reach a specific destination, and there will be a series of obstacles and even enemies on the way there."

After Gu Nan finished this sentence, he added, "As for the meaning of parkour, you'll understand it after playing a couple of times. Let's talk about this starting point kill first."

Starting point kill was also a new term, but this one was much easier to understand.

"The meteorite is too fast. There's no other solution besides directly jumping off the roof… In the end, we are too weak," Zi Yi said with a frown.

Everyone understood her unspoken words: they'd either be heavily injured or die after jumping directly from the building and landing from a height of a hundred meters. How would they be able to carry out the subsequent phases of the mission?

At the end of the day, these Star Rulers weren't used to thinking about things from the perspective of an Innate Realm cultivator.

All their usual methods were suddenly ineffective. It was like a super hacker traveling through time to a primitive society—no matter how skilled the hacker, all their skills would be useless.

"If you want to land from a height of 100 meters at Innate Realm without dying, you'll have to be a cultivator who specializes in cultivating the physical body," Qiu Wenran said seriously.

"I am," Gu Nan responded.
