Chapter 183: 194

Blood stained the planetary ring, and corpses were strewn everywhere.

Gu Nan was all alone, holding a single sword—actually, that wasn’t quite right, because in fact, dozens of shadow clones were marching forth synchronously, wantonly killing any living person in sight.

Be it the disciples of Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall or cultivators who came to seek information from the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord, none of them could escape death.

Although the latter group were actually innocent, what did that matter?

Gu Nan didn’t have time to make the effort to distinguish between who deserved to die and who was innocent. He would only take the most efficient route to settle things. As for things like morality and ethics, those didn’t apply to players.

"Who the hell are you? What grudge do you have against my Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall?!” A steward-like person, who seemed to be still alive after being struck by a sword, struggled to get up.

"Where's Heavenly Mystery?" Gu Nan asked emotionlessly.

The steward sneered, "The Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord can divine everything under Heaven. How can he possibly be found by you?"

Gu Nan nodded in agreement, then cut off his head with a sword.

Gu Nan wasn’t an Eighth Grade Syndrome patient who believed that "the whole world should listen to me." Of course other people had the right to disobey him. Similarly, he also had the right to kill all disobedient people.

The fact that the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord could run away meant he had some ability, but that didn’t prevent Gu Nan from slaughtering his Dao Hall—although a monk can run away, the monk’s temple cannot.

The shadow clones’ massacre continued. Occasionally, someone managed to escape, but Gu Nan was unconcerned.

He slowly made his way into the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord’s study. Most of the books here had already been emptied. It seemed that the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord had indeed expected this.

This was normal. Almost anyone who knew Gu Nan wouldn’t be stupid enough to wait for death at home after injuring Lan Si.

"He ran away on his own and abandoned the Dao Hall’s disciples and grand-disciples in order to pull the wool over everyone’s eyes. He’s truly heartless!"

Gu Nan commented on the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord’s ruthlessness, but it never occurred to him that he was the one acting as the executioner.

……

The process of slaughtering everyone in Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall was lackluster; there wasn't any decent resistance at all. Furthermore, the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord had retreated early on.

"He went to all this trouble—does he want to use this to break through to Tier 4?" In his spare time, Gu Nan considered the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord’s possible motives. This was probably the reason.

‘He could even abandon his own Dao Hall. Why else would he do that?’

But this was none of Gu Nan's business.

After locking Lan Si in a little black room to cultivate in earnest, Gu Nan left White Mist and hid in a small town on the mainland, disguising himself as an ordinary scholar.

The King of the Deep Sea had returned to Star Realm and might look for him at any time. At the very least, this was still a Tier 4 existence, so he should be given some respect.

Gu Nan's relationship with White Mist couldn’t be hidden from those who knew where to look. Staying in White Mist was tantamount to courting death.

"Personal dungeon…" After handling the other matters, Gu Nan could finally settle down and study his personal dungeon.

Earlier, he’d developed over a dozen personal dungeons at once, but only one of those progress bars had reached 100% and was shown as "complete.”

The small plane corresponding to this dungeon was called "Splendid World."

Splendid World wasn’t too small. There was only one planet in the plane, and the local civilization had developed into something half reliant on technology and half on supernatural powers.

Even in a modern city that resembled a forest of steel, there were still people with all kinds of powers. Moreover, everyone in this world knew about supernatural powers.

｢Name it “Splendid World” and start the personal dungeon｣

Gu Nan ordered the interface. Then he discovered that his consciousness had returned to his true body, and his soul began to pull out independently.

This process very much resembled reincarnation, but this time his soul didn’t travel to the void outside the plane. Instead, it came to a strange space.

A small ball of light broke away from his soul, and he could tell that it was the ball of light representing Splendid World.

And after releasing that ball of light, his soul became a very tiny dot of light and slowly moved towards the ball of light.

What surprised Gu Nan even more was that there were countless light balls and dots in this strange space.

As soon as Splendid World’s ball of light appeared, it immediately attracted many bright dots.

Around the ball of light, there were clearly four gaps for four bright dots to enter. Besides Gu Nan himself, who firmly held one of those spots, the other three spots caused fierce competition.

Gu Nan watched this scene in astonishment. He had never seen this in the game before.

No, it should be said that he had seen a similar picture before—it was a scene where a rich player built a map and other players rushed to enter the dungeon!

‘Could it be…’

The next moment, Gu Nan’s consciousness appeared in the office of a skyscraper, and three people were sitting in front of him with smiles on their faces.

A woman, an old man, and a little boy.

The woman was dressed fashionably in modern clothing and had thick eye shadow, but it didn’t give people a tacky feeling. Instead, it seemed extremely charming.

The old man, on the other hand, was dressed in clothes that were a little more dated. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a black suit with two rows of buttons. He looked like a scientist from the old portraits.

The little boy was just a little boy, but his clothes were the weirdest—he wore half of a lady's sun hat on his head.

The reason why it was half was because the hat had been cut in half right down the middle, leaving only the left part, and the little boy actually wore it like this.

Gu Nan looked at the three strange people and coughed slightly. "How should I address you three?"

The woman smiled. "You may call me Zi Yi, Lord."

The little boy also smiled. His smile was very bizarre. The smiles on his left face and his right face were incongruous. It looked like two different people were smiling. "Zuo Zuo[1], everyone calls me that."

It seemed that the old man was the most friendly, and his attitude was also the most humble. He repeatedly said, "This humble one is Qiu Wenran, who became a Star Ruler only 4,000 years ago. I don’t dare to address myself as an equal to my two seniors."

Hearing this, Gu Nan couldn't help raising an eyebrow, but he didn't reveal other expressions. He said flatly, "My name is Gu Nan."

Zi Yi and Zuo Zuo seemed to be quite famous. Since the old man Qiu Wenran thought of himself as a junior, the task of communicating with Gu Nan naturally fell to him.

"Lord Gu Nan, are you the master of this small world? May I inquire about this world’s original name…" In the middle of Qiu Wenran's speech, he waved his hand again and again. “Please don’t be offended, I'm just asking a random question."

Gu Nan waved his hand, then answered, "This is Splendid World."

Qiu Wenran and Zuo Zuo had no reaction, but Zi Yi said, "So it’s Splendid World… I came here over 600 years ago. I already liked it at that time, but I didn't expect for someone to take control of it in the blink of an eye."

"Splendid World is indeed good," Zuo Zuo also said. When he spoke, the expressions on the left and right sides of his face were completely mismatched. "Besides cultivation level restrictions being a little too low and restricting everyone to a maximum level of Prodigious Realm, the rest of this world is quite good."

Gu Nan looked at the three people talking, and after thinking about it, he asked, "So everyone… What’s the current situation?"

Hearing this, the three of them couldn't help but stare blankly. Finally, Qiu Wenran said with a chuckle, "Lord, you must be a person who is immersed in cultivation and doesn’t touch worldly matters. You already have the strength to take control of a world. Is this the first time you entered the Myriad Heavens Starry Road?"

Gu Nan nodded without saying anything.

He didn’t really understand the current situation, but one thing was certain: his three companions inside this personal dungeon… were three impressive Star Rulers!
