"Great, wonderful! I've finally found Mother's whereabouts!" Charon exclaimed excitedly.
"Ah, that's wonderful. Whether you're a mortal or a god, a child with a mother is a treasure," Gu Tianchen remarked.
Gu Tianchen's words silenced everyone present.
Besides Baili Pangpang's parents who are still alive, and Li Deyang having an old man, everyone else...
Gu Tianchen and Lin Qiye's parents are missing, but Qiye at least has an aunt;
An Qingyu, a fellow villager from Cangnan, also lost her parents.
Cao Yuan lost control of his forbidden energy and slaughtered the entire village;
Shen Qingzhu is an orphan...
As for Jialan, she also received some maternal love from the Queen Mother of the West.
Gu Tianchen's lips twitched slightly. This lineup... no wonder they're the main characters. Six of them can't even field two complete sets of parents...
“Um… if you really lack maternal love, I can be your mother for three months.”
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Best took the initiative to act as Gu Tianchen's mother.
"No, no, no, I appreciate your kindness, but if people knew I had a blonde, blue-eyed, hot stepmother like you, my dad would be beaten to a pulp by my mom down there," Gu Tianchen politely declined.
"Ahem, this is the bottom," Shen Qingzhu reminded him.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's smoking! It's smoking! Tianchen, is your dad in there?"
Baili Pangpang pointed to the imperial palace floating on the opposite bank of the river, from which wisps of white smoke rose, making it exceptionally conspicuous in the darkness.
"Your father is inside, Brother Charon, hurry up and lead us across the river!" Gu Tianchen urged.
Charon pointed at Lin Qiye and said, "Apart from him, everyone else will receive one gold coin to cross the river."
"Seriously? These are real relatives, how can you ask them for money? Don't you understand social etiquette?" Gu Tianchen asked.
Charon stood with his arms crossed, looking utterly impartial.
“Your little boat can’t hold all of us,” Gu Tianchen said, trying to negotiate the price.
"You don't need to worry about that. I'm not called the Ferryman of the Styx for nothing."
hum!
A divine force swept out, and the small wooden boat transformed into a giant sailboat.
"Alright, alright, here's the money. Hurry up and lead us across the river." Gu Tianchen took out a handful of gold coins and handed them to Charon.
Charon accepted the money, sailed his wooden sailboat across the River Styx, and reached the other side.
The group rushed towards the imperial palace along the suspended black stone steps.
"Huh? Where's Uncle Li?"
Upon arriving at the main gate, Baili Pangpang noticed that one person was missing from the line and turned to look behind him.
Gu Tianchen turned his head away and said, "Old Li is trying to recover his main account password. Let's deal with the immediate problem first."
In the vast imperial palace courtyard, complex blood-red patterns appeared under the feet of the white ant queen, who was rapidly recovering from her injuries, with wisps of white smoke rising from her body.
"Is it... taking a sauna?" Baili Pangpang asked curiously.
An Qingyu adjusted her glasses and said seriously, "Forbidden Ruins Sequence 347, [Bloodline Sacrifice]."
"A forbidden area where one can replenish their physical deficiencies and enhance their strength by sacrificing lives with close blood relatives."
"However, this forbidden area is of little use to ordinary people, because they only have a few close relatives, and even if they were all sacrificed, it would not increase their strength much, so it is ranked very low in the sequence."
An Qingyu's eyes turned cold as she added, "But for a mysterious creature like the queen ant, whose reproductive ability is extremely strong, if she were to sacrifice those hundreds of soldier ants and worker ants buried underground, she could very well break through to the Boundless Realm directly."
Cao Yuan frowned and said, "Therefore, there are no weak forbidden realms, only unsuitable forbidden realms. This forbidden realm paired with the ant queen is too abnormal!"
Gu Tianchen's lips curled up, and he said with a cold laugh, "Heh, this is nothing. I have even more powerful combination techniques to share!"
"What is it?" Cao Yuan asked.
Of course, it's Lin Qiye combining the extraordinary fertility ability he drew with this bloodline sacrifice ability!
While giving birth, he sacrifices his bloodline to continuously improve his own strength. When the time comes, not only the Black Goat, but even Azathoth will have to obediently kneel down!
He had even thought of a name for Lin Qiye: "I rely on the combination of extraordinary reproduction and bloodline sacrifice to break through to the next dimension and crush Azathoth!"
So, whether or not they can win the final battle depends on whether Gu Tianchen can help Lin Qiye draw the extraordinary fertility skill!
This time, with him around, even if Uncle Merlin loses all his hair, it won't change Lin Qiye's fate of drawing the extraordinary birth!
Lin Qiye put Jialan down and placed his hand on the ground, and a magnificent magic circle slowly opened.
"I hope this time I can summon a reliable helper like Mumu," Lin Qiye thought to himself.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Within the dazzling magic circle, a charming woman in a cheongsam swayed her hips and slowly walked out.
Everyone: ? ? ?
what's the situation? !
Chapter 157 Are you really human?
"Hehehe, here we go again..."
Liu Ruyan swayed gracefully as she slowly walked towards the crowd, her black cheongsam outlining her curvaceous figure.
When she saw Gu Tianchen and Shen Qingzhu, two familiar faces in the crowd, she smiled charmingly and let out a silvery laugh.
But before she could even finish greeting everyone, she instantly sensed something was wrong, her expression changed drastically, becoming completely different from the poised and elegant woman in the cheongsam she had been moments before.
"Holy crap, where did my Klein-level strength go?!"
Liu Ruyan sensed the level of her spiritual power within her body; it was only... the peak of the Chuan Realm?!
What the hell is going on?!
Gu Tianchen quickly pointed at Lin Qiye and said, "He did it!"
"You brat, what did you do to me?!" Liu Ruyan asked angrily.
Lin Qiye scratched his head awkwardly, "I don't know what's going on either. I remember that the beings summoned by this dimensional summoning array can't exceed my cultivation level limit..."
"This might be the reason why your cultivation level has become what it is now..."
After hearing this, Liu Ruyan was furious. She was sleeping peacefully on Baodu Mountain when she was inexplicably teleported here.
He had finally cultivated to the Klein Realm, just one step away from becoming a god, but this kid ruined it all!
"I'll fight you to the death!!!"
Enraged, Liu Ruyan abandoned her carefully constructed ladylike image and charged at Lin Qiye with bared teeth and claws, only to be stopped by Gu Tianchen and Tao Yao.
"Sister Liu, Sister Liu, please calm down. He didn't expect this dimensional summoning array to bring you here..."
"Um?!"
Liu Ruyan glared at Gu Tianchen with murderous intent, issuing a warning.
"It will summon you, this classical beauty, which is completely unintentional," Gu Tianchen advised.
"Of all the willow demons in the world, why did he have to come here?! I think this kid did it on purpose. Don't stop me, I'm going to kill him!" Liu Ruyan was still relentless.
"Sister Liu, with your talent, you'll surely return to the Klein realm soon. Why get angry with a child? Besides, he really didn't mean it. You're a magnanimous person, so please forgive him," Tao Yao advised.
“If you really have nowhere to vent your anger, I’ll find you a punching bag,” Gu Tianchen said seriously, pointing to the white queen ant not far away. “Take it down!”
Queen Ant: ? ? ?
Why are all of us attacking me the moment I say the wrong thing?! What the hell did I do to deserve this?!
Liu Ruyan unleashed a black, malevolent aura, her arms transforming into thick black willow branches that lashed out at the ant queen.
Lin Qiye finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked cautiously, "Who... is this?"
Gu Tianchen said, "I saw her once in the dream that Lao Bai described. Her name is Liu Ruyan. She is a willow tree spirit who is about to become a god. You can ask Taozi for details."
The peach demon said, "This is no ordinary tree demon, but a ghost general under the Central Ghost Emperor Ji Kang, who was ordered to guard the Tongtian Jianmu. Among all the ghost generals in the entire underworld, this one is a top-tier existence, just one step away from becoming a god."
"If I remember correctly, Baodu Mountain in the central region was taken away by the Demon King Lucifer back then. How did you summon it?"
"This thing is just random probability, it's not something I can control," Lin Qiye said awkwardly.
Gu Tianchen remembered that in the original novel, Lin Qiye used this move to summon an ancient tree spirit, but who would have thought that his influence would summon Liu Ruyan, and even cause her to fall from the Klein Realm to the peak of the Chuan Realm...
My apologies, my apologies...
Fortunately, Lin Qiye took the blame, and Gu Tianchen's repentance lasted less than three seconds before vanishing.
"Sister Liu, let me help you!"
Gu Tianchen, wielding the Fierce Dragon Halberd and engulfed in flames, charged toward the Queen Ant.
The queen ant's bloodline sacrifice was forcibly interrupted by everyone, only raising her to the peak of the Sea Realm. However, she now possesses the agility of a red worker ant and the defense of a black soldier ant, making her combat power on a completely different level than before.
This thing is something that none of you here could defeat in a one-on-one fight.
A group fight is necessary!
"Go together!"
Dark red armor covered the queen ant's entire body. The group surrounded her, and all sorts of attacks rained down on her.
Flames, night, frost, lightning, vines, air cannons...
Although the queen ant has thick flesh and is very resilient, even a tiger can't withstand a pack of wolves and is soon beaten and covered in wounds.
Gu Tianchen's Fiery Dragon Halberd, wreathed in divine fire, slashed down fiercely, shattering the dark red armor of the Red-Armored Ant Queen into pieces.
The burning flames not only melted its armor, but seemed to be melting its very soul.
An Qingyu raised her hand and unleashed several strange threads, aiming them at the gaps in Gu Tianchen's shattered armor. The biting cold spread along the threads, freezing a large area.
The queen ant, tormented by the extremes of ice and fire, let out a series of roars.
Baili Pangpang wielded the Thunder Tornado, and the surging lightning struck the Queen Ant's hind leg hard, instantly paralyzing her.
The queen ant lost her balance and fell to the ground. Liu Ruyan quickly made her move, and black vines burst out of the soil, tightly binding it.
