Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Regarding Gu Nan, many people now knew that he’d already advanced to Star Ruler Realm.

After all, he displayed that power once in Tiluo World, and although the recent events in White Bones Realm hadn’t really spread yet, lots of people still knew about it.

But not many people truly understood Wu Gui’s actual strength and inside information.

Many believed her strength to be between that of Star Rulers with and without astral worlds. Furthermore, some actually believed she hadn’t even ascended to Star Ruler Realm yet.

If she hadn't captured a portion of Nirvana Heaven’s origin, her reputation would likely be even less well-known.

But even so, the person who dared to challenge Wu Gui to her face clearly wouldn’t be ordinary either.

Yan Weng’s face was full of anxiety, but he also didn’t dare run over and ask Gu Nan for help, so he could only keep trying to earnestly persuade the others.

In fact, Yan Weng didn’t have many available spots for each human smuggling flight. The maximum number of passengers per trip wouldn’t exceed ten, and he only had eight spots this time.

Besides Gu Nan and his group, the people over there were divided into two groups with three people on each side, which just happened to correspond to the remaining six spots.

After Lu Xinhuan and Zhong Die joined, the two sides each gave up one spot with great reluctance after Yan Weng finally managed to persuade them. But when they heard Yan Weng still wanted more, they immediately couldn’t endure it anymore.

Lu Xinhuan first greeted Wu Gui and also showed due respect. Of course, it wasn’t as exaggerated as when facing Gu Nan.

Then she pointed to Yan Weng's side and explained, "Of those two groups of people, one side is from Major Martial Realm, and the other side should be locals from Heavenly Province World."

In a sense, Gu Nan and Wu Gui’s network of contacts were too high level and directly involved Star Ruler Realm, so Lu Xinhuan was actually more familiar with small fries like these.

Gu Nan also had a run-in with people from Major Martial Realm before. People from that realm once reincarnated into Crescent Moon World to carry out a mission.

"Let's go," Gu Nan immediately said. Since everyone had arrived, he had no intention of waiting any longer.

Lu Xinhuan glanced at him and knew that this one probably didn’t care about her explanation at all.

Wu Gui naturally had no objections. The group quickly reached the ship. Gu Nan patted Yan Weng's shoulder. "Who has a problem?"

The beautiful and youthful young girl dressed in modern clothes raised her head and spoke up, "Even if you guys are strong, don’t you also have to listen to reason? Don’t you understand the principle of ‘first come, first served’?!"

Her two companions also stood behind her supportively, staring at this side warily. Of course, they were mostly watching Wu Gui.

All three of them were Void Cutters. After all, those willing to head to the World of Gods were all people who had confidence in their own strength.

Even if the three of them couldn’t defeat the reincarnation of the Buddha of Ten Thousand Samsara, it was always possible to stall her for a while. And under these special circumstances, even if the other party might be a Star Ruler, they should still compromise, right?

After all, once things spiralled out of control, nobody would be able to board the ship.

The young girl acted this way precisely because she was certain of this. After being firm and unyielding for a while, she then said with a smile, "But it’s not necessarily impossible for us to give up another spot—"

Her voice came to an abrupt end here. Because under the faint lighting, her shadow on the ground suddenly rose up and turned into several shadow tendrils that dragged her entire body into her own shadow.

The young girl's life force, soul, and laws all disappeared at the same time. It was as if someone completely erased all traces of her existence in the human world.

The two behind her paled, but then they felt a chill under their feet. The same shadow tendrils were already behind their backs…

"There are enough spots now. Let's go," Gu Nan said to the few people around him.

After the three were swallowed by their shadows, three spots suddenly became available, and people from the other group were even spared the awkward situation of being forced to give up a spot.

The scene fell dead silent. Wu Gui, Lu Xinhuan, and the others naturally weren’t surprised. The remaining group of three all had tense, vigilant expressions, while Yan Weng had a bitter smile.

He was already considering how to emphasize his lack of involvement in the deaths of the three just now.

Only two people's gazes remained on Gu Nan. One was the little girl Zhong Die. She had yet to experience much of the world, so she didn’t think killing three people like this was anything shocking. Rather, she felt that this person was indeed powerful.

The other was Zi Dian. His thoughts were much more complicated. When he first met Gu Nan, the other party was just a normal Void Cutter, but now he was already a famous Star Ruler powerhouse whose name shook the Myriad Heavens Universe.

He knew that Gu Nan’s realm advanced rapidly in his early years, almost as if cultivation realms were nonexistent and breakthroughs were as simple as eating a meal, but he didn’t expect that not even Star Ruler Realm’s harsh requirements could stop Gu Nan’s rapid growth.

Regardless of what Zi Dian was thinking, the group finally set foot on the starship.

……

The process of the starship breaking through the dimensional wall and entering the World of Gods was uneventful.

In fact, what was needed to temporarily break through the dimensional wall wasn’t some unique secret technique; it was merely a special material.

People in the Myriad Heavens Universe called it a space-time crystal. With this special crystal, breaking the dimensional wall wouldn’t be a difficult task.

But this resource was quite rare and was generally controlled by the Thirteen Heavens. Yan Weng also happened across a piece by chance, which was why he entered this business.

"The World of Gods!" Gu Nan stood upon the land full of dried-up bones in the Undead Kingdom. Staring at this familiar scene, his gaze suddenly drifted a little.

"So you’re from the World of Gods." Wu Gui stood beside him and revealed a look of realization.

She personally witnessed Gu Nan advance to Void Cutter Realm, so of course she didn't believe he was the reincarnation of some Heavenly Demon. She was also quite curious about Gu Nan's origins.

Only now, when she saw Gu Nan's "I'm back” expression, did she finally determine his origin.

‘So he’s a visitor from another world!’

Gu Nan didn’t refute this. He just smiled and said, "You can think of it that way."

He sighed with emotion. If he had just transmigrated here initially, his development probably would’ve been much smoother.

Not long after, a young man dressed in a gray robe trotted over. He was probably here to welcome Lu Xinhuan and Zhong Die.

"My Lords, why don't you come with us to the lodgings first." Lu Xinhuan asked with a smile, "May I inquire about your destination…?"

"Sandro’s tomb. Oh, the people here probably call it the Sacred Catacombs of the Undead," Gu Nan said casually.

"The Sacred Catacombs of the Undead?" The young man next to him revealed an odd look. "As far as I know, the locations of the Three Holy Lands are continuously changing. Among them, the Sacred Catacombs even has nine entrances, some of which are fake, but even that isn’t fixed, so we don’t know which entrances are real at any given moment."

This wasn’t Lu Xinhuan’s first time visiting the Undead Kingdom, so she also heard the legend of the Three Holy Lands before. "It’s indeed hard to determine which entrances to the Sacred Catacombs are real at this particular moment. My Lord might as well—"

"All nine are real. You guys can just find one at random and take me there," Gu Nan cut her off expressionlessly.

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" The gray-robed youth's voice suddenly rose, and the expression on his face turned a little mocking. "We’ve researched the entrances to the Sacred Catacombs for hundreds of years, and even the natives here think so… For what reason do you dare assert this?"

Gu Nan glanced at him and said blandly, "I cleared this dungeon before."
