Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

The special nature of the Time Arena made fighting over this dungeon’s final reward a very dangerous thing.

Not only did one have to deal with competitors inside the dungeon, but afterwards, the winner also had to face the people outside who never even entered the dungeon…

Fortunately, not many people knew that this dungeon’s winner was decided instantaneously, and not everyone was keeping a close eye on the bead. Most people left with a sigh after learning they arrived one step too late.

So when the bead lit up for the second time and everyone inside was thrown back out onto the plane they entered from, only then did people realize.

"The blessed land is open again! Seize the treasure!"

"Are you stupid? This is clearly a sign of the blessed land closing completely. Someone already took the treasure!"

"Who ultimately took the treasure?"

Several major frontline planes instantly exploded with chatter. These planes weren’t large to begin with, so it was clear from a glance who had gone to which planes. Sure enough, someone immediately shouted.

"It's Lou Wanying! The disciple of Zi Luo Heaven’s Daoist Xuanqing. Lou Wanying, he's in Tiluo World!"

Lou Wanying was naturally no fool. He’d been preparing to flee the instant he left the Time Arena.

However, his movements were slower than usual because two heavily injured people who needed to be taken care of were also with him, and he had to bring both of them along as well.

One of the two was his senior martial sister Fang Yanqing, and the other was a senior he ran into inside the Time Arena and quickly became acquainted with.

If these two didn’t risk their lives to fight for him, he probably wouldn’t have been able to snatch the treasure…

Thinking of this, Lou Wanying’s eyes reddened slightly as he said loudly, "Martial Sister, Senior Hong, you guys must hold on! I'll take you back to Zi Luo Heaven. Master will definitely be able to save you guys!"

"That's him! He’s Lou Wanying!" Just then, someone beside him shouted loudly upon recognizing Lou Wanying.

The Time Arena didn’t limit the number of people who could enter. It would simply disqualify most people in the first round, but they still knew who ultimately held the treasure.

Inside White Bones Realm, Bai Qiaozhen was likewise watching the frontline situation, and when she received news that the treasure had fallen into Lou Wanying's hands, a look of realization dawned on her face.

"Eldest Miss, should we order our people to make their move?" A middle-aged man appeared behind Bai Qiaozhen and asked in a low voice.

"What's the hurry?" Bai Qiaozhen replied indifferently, "None of the people from Sumeru Heaven, Thunder Realm, and White Origin Heaven have made a move yet, plus there’s also that Gu Nan…"

There weren’t many large planes interested in the blessed land, but that number also wasn’t small.

Bai Qiaozhen could tell at a glance which major astral worlds sent people to watch the situation in Tiluo World, but she wasn’t too concerned about these people. The only person she was truly concerned about was Gu Nan.

Although White Bones Realm was a newly-promoted astral world, its strength and foundation far surpassed that of ordinary Realm Level planes. Thus, it was considered among the top ranks of all Realm Level planes.

So Bai Qiaozhen wasn’t afraid of clashing with other astral worlds. On the contrary, she was most worried about Gu Nan—this guy even dared to beat up that one’s dragon…

At the same time, similar conversations were taking place inside several other astral worlds.

"Let's wait and see."

"There’s no rush to make a move. We’ll make our move after those people are weakened from fighting each other."

"How can we, people from a main plane, mix among those commoners to seize the treasure?"

……

In Tiluo World, a few people immediately surrounded Lou Wanying, sizing him up maliciously.

"Daoist Friend Lou, so many people already know that you took the treasure. You won’t be able to protect it anyways, so why not hand it over peacefully?"

Lou Wanying looked around coldly, and without wasting time, he unsheathed his golden sword and stabbed directly at several people.

"Daoist Friend Lou…"

Lou Wanying’s strike was too sudden. The person who spoke up just now couldn’t even react in time and was almost stabbed through the heart, only managing to dodge with great difficulty.

But Lou Wanying didn’t back down after gaining momentum. A searing golden radiance shone from his sword as the power to cut apart all laws exploded at full strength, seemingly containing an indescribable and unknown power.

The power brought by this outburst was far beyond what the previous Lou Wanying could do, almost reaching the peak of Void Cutter Realm. His sword mercilessly pierced the opponent's throat.

The others couldn’t help being slightly taken aback. Be it strength or style, this strike was entirely different from the Lou Wanying they’d seen before.

Lou Wanying stared at them with cold indifference. How would they know what price he had to pay to bring out the treasure after acquiring it?

‘Even Martial Sister and Senior Hong…’

Thinking of this, Lou Wanying's gaze became determined, and he said to the people before him, "This treasure is something my senior martial sister and Senior Hong desperately obtained using their lives. It doesn’t only belong to me, so I will never let anyone else snatch it away!"

His powerful and resonating words rang out. The Void Cutters surrounding him didn’t dare come forward to fight him. Instead, they actually retreated a few steps and started observing the situation.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly slashed across the sky, flying directly at Lou Wanying.

Lou Wanying’s nerves were extremely tense right now and his vigilance was stronger than ever, so he turned his sword around and stabbed behind him without even needing to think.

However, he didn’t expect for the other party to casually catch the golden sword with their hand.

The terrifying power of laws raged wildly on the sword while supreme sword Qi shot out in all directions, but it didn’t even leave a mark on the opponent’s hand. Just like that, the enemy firmly caught the golden sword.

Lou Wanying looked up in shock and saw Gu Nan's face.

He was utterly furious when he recalled how he once even invited the other party to go to that blessed land to win the treasure together. ‘If you wanted the treasure, then you could’ve just gone together with me back then. Why are you trying to snatch it away right now?’

"Mr. Gu Nan! Even you want to seize it—"

Boom!

Gu Nan smashed his fist into Lou Wanying’s face, causing blood to blossom and splash from his nose, instantly knocking him out.

"Not dead yet?" Gu Nan looked at him strangely. To not have his head blown off directly by Gu Nan’s punch, this Lou Wanying's head might really be a bit strange.

But he also wasn’t inclined to ponder it further, so his right hand stabbed into Lou Wanying's chest and pulled out a golden ball of light.

No one knew better than Gu Nan where the sand of time was hidden.

At the same time, the crowd watching this from the sidelines also shifted their gaze to Gu Nan.

"Gu Nan? Why would he run out first? Isn’t he afraid of everyone focusing their attacks on him?" Bai Qiaozhen frowned at this scene, extremely puzzled.

In her view, the stronger the person, the later they would choose to show themselves.

Because they were the strongest, their appearance would most likely cause the rest of the competitors to unite against them. On the contrary, if they showed up later, the rest of the people would’ve almost finished fighting, making it convenient for them to make their move.

Anyways, it wasn’t like the treasure could grow legs and run away.

In Thunder Realm, a golden-haired youth standing inside the void couldn’t help but snicker, "So this is the reincarnation of that Nine Abyss Heavenly Demon? He doesn't even understand the principle of ‘the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.’ He truly is a Heavenly Demon whose mind is chaotic and muddled!"

In White Origin Heaven, a woman in palace clothes said flatly, "That Gu Nan won’t be able to get away. Prepare to seize the treasure. That one still has a trump card."

……

Order after order was issued inside the major planes. They were either to continue waiting on standby or to prepare to launch a surprise attack. Everyone’s target was naturally Tiluo World.

And inside Tiluo World, the sand of time had already fallen into Gu Nan's hands. Just as he casually opened a spatial rift and was about to leave, another aura suddenly burst forth.

The old man Lou Wanying referred to as “Senior Hong,” who’d been lying on the ground all this time, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment.

His body exploded, and a half-real, half-illusory shadow stood in front of Gu Nan.

"My Lord predicted long ago that you’d show up." Elder Hong's illusion laughed lightly. "The Nine Abyss Heavenly Demon possesses monstrous demonic Qi and an invincible physique, but it never occurred to you that your bane would exist in this world."

"Illusory Spirit Physique, this really can be considered the bane of body refining experts." Bai Qiaozhen couldn’t help sighing slightly when she saw this from White Bones Realm.

The Illusory Spirit Physique wasn’t any sort of remarkable constitution. People with this physique simply lacked a physical body, so physical damage would be significantly reduced.

But most of the powerful figures in this world used the power of laws to fight enemies, so what use did the Illusory Spirit Physique have?

But it just so happened that Gu Nan, the reincarnation of a Nine Abyss Heavenly Demon, walked the body refining path, which was why the Illusory Spirit Physique perfectly countered him.

"Get ready to strike." Bai Qiaozhen shook her head. "In the end, Gu Nan… was still too impatient. He only needed to wait a little while longer, and that Illusory Spirit Physique would’ve been forced to deal with someone else first."

However, just then, Gu Nan stared at Elder Hong expressionlessly and raised his right hand.

Far away beyond the endless void, Gu Nan's true body inside his Divine Kingdom suddenly opened his eyes, and a wave of power descended directly upon Tiluo World in an inexplicable manner.

Since apostles could borrow some of their god’s power, a god’s incarnation in the mortal world could naturally also borrow the main body’s power, just with some limitations.

Just because Gu Nan usually only used the alt account’s power to fight didn’t mean that his true body was asleep!

Faced with this Illusory Spirit Physique that suddenly appeared, the power of shadows from his true body instantly fell upon Tiluo World through his clone, landing right on that Senior Hong.

Unimaginably majestic shadows erupted forth. Senior Hong couldn’t even say anything before his soul was directly obliterated.

After all, this power came from a Tier 6 law!

Everyone who was about to enter Tiluo World simultaneously froze in shock, then watched as down below, Gu Nan stepped into a spatial rift with the treasure.

Bai Qiaozhen, the youth from Thunder Realm, the woman in palace clothes from White Origin Heaven—one after another, these orioles stared at each other blankly.
