Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God Chapter 197

Deep in the endless starry sky, an enormous luxury starship was slowly leaving the void.

The starship's arrival didn't make any noise—there wouldn't be any noise in the void anyways, but this starship was too large, making people unused to how silent it was.

There was also a golden symbol on the starship, which looked like some sort of strange hook.

A cultivator from the Central Region would recognize the meaning of this symbol at a glance—this was the mark of the Deep Sea Temple in the Central Region.

"To think that so much has happened on Heaven and Earth Star within a short 70 years."

Inside the ship, an old man in a golden robe was sighing with emotion as he gazed at the approaching Heaven and Earth Star.

At the old man's side was a man in a black windbreaker, giving a helpless and wry smile. "We are unable to make any sense of the strange existence of children of destiny, so we could only avoid them for the time being."

The man in the black windbreaker was called Ping Jiushan. He was also a well-known Dao Lord on Heaven and Earth Star. It's just that he gradually hid his whereabouts in recent decades due to the rise of the children of destiny.

However, what no one knew was that Ping Jiushan was a bloodline user who used to be an attendant in the Deep Sea Temple.

"Elder Feng, are you perhaps here for those children of destiny?" Ping Jiushan asked carefully.

In his impression, Feng Xu was one of the most senior elders of the Deep Sea Temple. The reason he came all the way to the Sixth Region could only be due to the bizarre phenomenon of the children of destiny; there was no other possibility.

However, Feng Xu chuckled while shaking his head. "Destiny is uncertain and unreliable. Although it can be useful for a while, it will not succeed in the long run… You can simply observe it failing on its own."

"Then Elder, you're here this time for…" Ping Jiushan scratched his head, at a loss.

"His Majesty has already returned to Star Realm.” Feng Xu's expression gradually grew serious. "We have to find a person named Gu Nan."

Ping Jiushan froze in shock when he heard Feng Xu's words.

Powerful Tier 4 figures rarely stayed in one place for long. Instead, they spent most of their time traveling back and forth between different worlds, looking for worlds' origins to build their own laws.

The fact that His Majesty the King of the Deep Sea came back in person meant there was something in Star Realm he needed even more.

"Then… what happens after we find this person?" Ping Jiushan's voice trembled.

Feng Xu glanced at him, then answered in a low voice, "His Majesty will personally descend.”

Gu Nan didn't yet know that the King of the Deep Sea had chosen the smartest way to catch his trail.

He didn't hastily rush into the Sixth Region, nor did he mobilize all his forces to conduct an all-out search for Gu Nan with great fanfare. Instead, he chose to send an emissary to secretly track down Gu Nan.

But this was none of Gu Nan's business. He was currently approaching his destination—the tower in the center of the city—from mid-air.

The roar of the helicopter resounded through the sky. Although Gu Nan was rather good at driving cars, his helicopter piloting skills left much to be desired.

The helicopter kept swaying from side to side in mid-air. Qiu Wenran and his two seniors could only cling to the handrail to ensure that they wouldn't be flung off.

"Your Excellency! Shouldn't we capture someone who can fly a helicopter…" Qiu Wenran shouted at Gu Nan through the strong wind, which deflected his voice.

Gu Nan still had time to free up a hand to wave at the three in the back of the helicopter. "Although I can't fly a helicopter well, I can shoot well!"

As Gu Nan's voice fell, he launched a miniature missile, taking out the helicopter blocking their way in an explosion.

As a top player, mastering all kinds of mini games was also a necessary skill, because you never know when the developers will spring a puzzle game on players out of the blue.

Therefore, Gu Nan had mastered a simple skill like aiming to the point of perfection.

After another exciting battle, Gu Nan's helicopter of four finally arrived at the tip of the tower in the city center, and Gu Nan jumped down without hesitation.

The instant his hand touched the tip of the tower, the world seemed to freeze again, and the countdown in mid-air slowly disappeared. New words began to appear.

The timer was down to the last ten or so seconds—Gu Nan's determination to improve efficiency proved to be the correct choice.

｢Victory conditions for the First Phase have been met.

Second Phase: Kill the crimson guards

Victory Condition: All four players must survive

Power Restriction: Tier 3 ｣

With the words' appearance, Gu Nan and the others all felt the suppression loosen, as if some inexplicable restriction had been lifted, and a portion of their sealed power also returned to their bodies.

However, the tip of the tower gradually cracked open at this time. Gu Nan let go without hesitation, standing directly in the air—after regaining his Prodigious Realm strength, he was able to fly.

Gu Nan's three teammates were also standing in the air beside him.

"Looks like Tier 3 refers to the Prodigious Realm," Zuo Zuo spoke up. When his strength returned to Tier 3, the disharmony between his two sides seemed to be even more pronounced. When he spoke, the lady's sun hat on the left side of his head was gradually distorted, while the right face was normal.

Qiu Wenran also nodded. "It should be… I wonder what power system this term came from. Does it perhaps not originate from our world?"

When saying that, he couldn't help glancing at Gu Nan in astonishment.

All world missions in the Myriad Heavens Starry Road originate from the owner of that small world, so the term “Tier 3” might have come from Gu Nan.

But he wasn't stupid enough to ask directly. This concerned one's origins. If Gu Nan didn't intend to answer, then rashly asking would only make an enemy of Gu Nan.

There wasn't much time left for the four. Just a moment later, the tip of the tower had cracked open completely, and a crimson figure walked out from the inside.

"Hahahaha! This Lord has hidden here for 20 years, but to think that you guys discovered me! In that case, give me your lives!" The figure laughed as soon as he appeared, then shouted loudly.

"Who are you?" Qiu Wenran asked with a heavy voice.

However, the blood-red figure flew to Qiu Wenran and slashed down with his blade. Instead of answering, he said, "Damned fleas, always jumping around. I'll kill you all!"

His blade was very strange. It looked more like a sickle, but it didn't have such a large curve and also had a long handle.

"Good!" Qiu Wenran chuckled. "I'll have to trouble everyone to provide support for this humble one. Let me fight this… Huh?"

Before he could finish his words, he saw the crimson sickle suddenly accelerate, while Qiu Wenran seemed to freeze and was directly beheaded in one strike.

Since a player died, they immediately failed the mission, and the blood-red curtain reappeared—fortunately, the First Phase had already been completed, so they just restarted from the tower tip cracking.

Otherwise, everyone would go insane if they had to redo the First Phase again.

Qiu Wenran's body was reconstructed, and he stood there somewhat awkwardly, looking at Gu Nan and the rest with his face a little red.

Finally, Gu Nan asked with a small cough, "What skill was that?"

Qiu Wenran seemed to be frozen just now, standing there motionlessly as the blade arrived. This was obviously not normal.

But he scratched his head helplessly. "I only felt that my whole mind and body were sealed, and I couldn't move at all… I couldn't recognize this skill."

"Let me try," Zi Yi suddenly offered.

Qiu Wenran suddenly sighed in relief. "We can rest assured with Senior Zi Yi taking the lead."

On the other side, the tower tip had cracked completely, and the four of them were once again greeted with familiar laughter.

"Hahahaha…."
