Above all spirits

Chapter 219 Senior, please stay

Bing Buyu did not refute this; reality is indeed cruel, and strength reigns supreme.

All compromises stem from an imbalance of power.

If Gu Yun hadn't displayed the strength of a pseudo-innate being, and if he hadn't possessed that terrifying power, things would already be a life-or-death situation.

"Hallmaster."

Ling stepped forward, clasped her hands in a fist salute, and glanced at Gu Yun out of the corner of her eye. Her emotions were complicated, with doubt and a hint of repression.

Gu Yun, who was able to manipulate him as the Envoy of Original Sin, is now on a completely different level from him, having achieved the body of a Heavenly Demon.

Bing Buyu said with some relief.

"It's not far away. You should have heard what I just said. I won't make any decisions; I'll just follow my heart."

Gu Yun echoed.

"Zero, I am very satisfied with your strength and ability. I can satisfy your selfish desires without any hesitation. As long as there are any evil demons, you don't need to report to me. Just kill them without batting an eye."

"I believe that the people of the Temple of War have a reasonable boundary between good and evil. I just ask that you don't view the demons through a biased lens."

"How about it?"

Ling remained silent for a moment, then looked directly into Gu Yun's eyes without the slightest fear, and spoke.

"I come."

"My sword was born to slay these demons."

"If you break your promise, I will not hesitate to kill you."

Gu Yun felt no dissatisfaction with Zero's frankness; on the contrary, he was even more pleased.

Such a person will not be swayed by any self-interest.

He laughed heartily and extended a hand to Zero in a gesture of goodwill.

"of course."

Ling paused for a moment, seemingly unaccustomed to a demon like Gu Yun, or even the bloodthirsty demon passed down through generations, and could only awkwardly extend her hand to shake hands with Gu Yun.

Seeing this, Ming Tianshen waved his hand and resumed his casual demeanor. Throughout the entire process, Gu Yun's words and actions were not too offensive, although the most important reason was that the objective situation did not allow him to take any risks.

However, he is a magnanimous person, and since he can solve the problem, he doesn't care about the process or the outcome.

Too lazy to deal with this matter, he simply informed the soldiers without saying a word.

"In that case, I'll take the rest of you back to the Temple of War. You two can do as you please."

The implication is clearly that zero and soldiers remain silent.

Gu Yun blurted out immediately.

"Senior, stay!"

"Lord Bing, you and Ling go to Wentian Academy first. I will follow shortly. I have some questions for Mingtian God."

Bing Buyu looked at Gu Yun with a puzzled expression, but in the end, he entered Canglan Star with Ling.

From the very beginning, Gu Yun had a sense of unease with him, as if Gu Yun was not from the same world as them, but rather a being from the same world as the God of the Underworld. This sense of unease began when Gu Yun addressed the God of the Underworld as "senior" instead of "divine messenger" or "God of the Underworld".

But... beings from the upper realms capable of condensing imperial will...?

That's probably unlikely... If it were true... he should be thankful that the fighting ended there.

The God of the Underworld didn't notice these small details. There were countless people in the upper realm who called him "senior," and in the lower realm, there were all sorts of titles like "Divine Envoy" and "God of the Underworld." There were too many titles, so he stopped being overly restrained.

"What? Is there something you want? Let me make this clear, I have no obligation to answer you."

Gu Yun clasped his hands in a slight bow, indicating that he didn't have a particularly negative impression of Ming Tian Shen.

"It's alright. However, since you have come to the lower realm, you must have something to ask for. I have also heard of the many gods and demons who have incarnated, all for the sake of the legendary imperial will."

The God of the Underworld was immediately dissatisfied.

Are you showing off to me?

Gu Yun quickly waved his hand.

"No, no, I was just lucky. In the mortal realm, pursuing the Emperor's will is almost always inseparable from luck. I suppose you already have a goal and are in the process of exploring it."

"I'll keep you here for a moment today just to ask you a few questions that are very important to me. If you ever need anything from me in the lower realm, I will do my best to help. A pseudo-innate being with imperial will will always be useful in the lower realm."

Mingtian God narrowed his eyes, did not deny it, and said.

“Interesting. You are indeed quite different from the legendary Heavenly Demon. You are extraordinary. Tell me, it must be related to the Upper Realm. If it is something I know, I don’t mind telling you.”

Gu Yun was overjoyed and bowed to express his gratitude without any pretense.

"I can't hide it from you, senior. It's about some things between the upper realm of nature gods and the lower realm of fairies. I want to know if the most powerful gods in the upper realm have the ability to break the rules and forcibly come to the lower realm."

Ming Tianshen was taken aback and couldn't help but look at Gu Yun, wondering why Gu Yun asked this. The conclusion he came to surprised even himself.

"Kid, you know quite a lot, huh?"

"What? You're going to slaughter your way through the entire fairy realm?"

Gu Yun chuckled.

"How could that be? The accumulated history of the fairy realm over tens of thousands of years is not something I can shake alone. Senior is joking."

"I just have a fairy friend in the fairy realm who wants to bring her out. As for the fairy realm and even the entire natural god realm, I know that they are all old fogies. I'm afraid that if they get angry, they might bring in the gods of the upper realm to suppress me."

"So let's give a heads-up first."

Mingtian looked at Gu Yun with some suspicion, his face showing complete disbelief in Gu Yun's words, and finally sighed.

"Well, it's not a secret. Even the most powerful gods in the upper realm who possess the power of rules cannot break through the dimensional rules and forcibly descend to the lower realm. They can only descend through avatars or clones."

"His rank will naturally be suppressed, remaining at the peak of the Holy Body."

"but..."

"It's hard to say. You're right about one thing: the people in the God Realm are good to their own people, but they're extremely xenophobic. If your friend's identity isn't ordinary, it'll be really difficult to deal with."

"As you probably know, gods connect with their followers through faith. Although I strongly dislike this, there is indeed an alternative way of descending to the divine, called 'sacrifice to descend.'"

"By continuously sacrificing the lives of believers, the connection of faith is broadened, and a portion of the power of a certain deity is transmitted to form a phantom. This phantom can temporarily break through the limitations and remain in the lower realm for a period of time in a truly innate state, but it will not break through the innate level. The power of the rules of dimensions is terrifying."

"Moreover, such an operation could easily result in losing more than you gain, so most churches generally don't do it, but it's hard to say about the people in the fairy world."

Gu Yun pondered for a moment, then pressed for an answer.

"Senior, if we use the World Tree as a medium, is it possible to descend in this form without the need for sacrifice?"

Upon hearing the words "World Tree," Mingtian's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

"?!!"

"What exactly are you up to, kid? And how did you get involved with that person?"
