At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

"Let me introduce you all. These three seniors are from a parallel world Japan," Inaba Chitose quickly stepped forward.

"This is the Holy Emperor, the Prime Minister of Japan in a parallel world."

"Hello." The Holy Emperor greeted them politely. The main world was similar to the parallel world she lived in. Fifth-tier extraordinary beings were the leaders of a country, while fourth-tier beings were the pillars of the country.

Before coming, she did her homework and knew about the fifth-order superhumans and some famous fourth-order superhumans in various countries of the main world.

To her shock, the main world not only has civilizations on Earth, but also on the Moon, Mars, Venus, and other planets, as well as some parallel worlds with civilizations that don't exist.

Such a vast solar system is a civilization sphere; the main world is so wonderful, it's dazzling.

"This is Shiba Miori, the Minister of Economy of Japan in a parallel world."

"Hello everyone, it's a pleasure to meet you all. I think we'll definitely become best friends," said Sima Weizhi with a smile. She is not only the Minister of Economy but also the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

"Ahem, my name is Tendou Kisara, and I am the Minister of War." Tendou Kisara nodded, his gaze sweeping over the group before him. Seven of them were fifth-tier transcendents...

Wow, they're all so strong! Except for that young man who looks to be about twenty, everyone else is at the late stage of the fifth rank.

The gap between fifth-tier superhumans is enormous; the difference between a newly arrived fifth-tier superhuman and a peak fifth-tier superhuman is almost tenfold.

She also learned that there are currently more than fifty known fifth-order superhumans in the entire solar system, and more than twenty known individuals above the fifth order. However, those above the fifth order are probably not human, and even if they are, they are not from this era, but legends from a more ancient civilization.

If there are so many recorded cases, then there must be even more unrecorded cases.

In her parallel world, there were only eight fifth-tier extraordinary beings and no more than fifty fourth-tier beings.

“Parallel worlds… Oh, I see. Welcome to the main world.” Gavin said enthusiastically, “Could you tell us about parallel worlds? I’m very curious.”

"I heard from my king that anyone who reaches the fifth rank is qualified to visit parallel worlds, but he didn't explain in detail how to do so."

Many people know about parallel worlds, but he only learned about it by pestering his senior, Bedivere.

This world has many parallel worlds, and most of them have different timelines. Some are still in ancient times, while others are already in the near future.

“Our meeting is destiny arranged for us by God, children. Let’s find a teahouse and have a good chat,” Zoe said with a kind smile.

“Yes, let’s find a teahouse. Xia Country has fifth-tier tea, and they’ve even started small-scale production. I wonder what it tastes like.” Valento said with a smile. After experiencing the Tokyo incident, he returned to South America to help his uncles establish the extraordinary order in various South American countries. Now he has advanced to the fifth tier and is the third hero in South America.

“Yes, Xia Kingdom is recognized as the number one culinary nation on Earth. My king even entrusted me to try to recruit a fourth-level chef back to China…” Bedivere looked troubled.

There are only four fourth-tier chefs in Xia Guo, two of whom are also brewers. In Britain, there is only one fourth-tier chef who is also a brewer. The Blood of the Red Dragon was brewed by that brewer.

"Um... this must be really difficult for you, Mr. Bedivere." Irene sighed in sympathy. There are only a handful of fourth-level chefs in the world, so this is basically an impossible task.

Every chef who reaches level four has their own ideals and cannot be easily poached.

"Even delicacies are divided into extraordinary levels... The main world is too amazing..." The three Holy Emperors looked at each other, the main world was so amazing that they didn't want to go back.

At this moment, a fourth-tier Xia Kingdom superhuman arrived with a smile: "I'm sorry, Ms. Eleanor, Captain Gavin, Sister Zoe, Captain Teandro, Mr. Moricio... I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"I rushed over as soon as I received the news of your arrival. It would be my dereliction of duty to leave you to find your own place to rest."

"Please follow me to the VIP reception area. Distinguished guests from various countries are arriving one after another."

"In particular, distinguished guests from the two major civilizations on Mars, Liyue and Sumeru, have also arrived."

Her voice trailed off at this point: "Especially among the VIPs of Liyue, there is a Tier 5 chef, it's unbelievable."

"Hiss—" Apart from the three Holy Emperors, everyone else took a deep breath, filled with disbelief.

"In addition to the fifth-level chef, the magic queen from ancient Egypt four thousand years ago has also arrived."

"That sixth-tier legend actually came too? I can't believe it," Teandro said.

Because Egypt was so backward, the world knew that two pharaohs who had reached the sixth rank or higher had descended thousands of years ago. However, so far, countries have been too busy to visit them. Instead, Egypt has submitted letters of credence to various countries for exchanges.

"Then let's hurry up and go. So many fifth and sixth-tier friends gathered together, I'm afraid there won't be such a grand scene for the next ten years." Gavin became excited and said excitedly.

"Please, this way." The fourth-tier Xia Kingdom transcendent said with a smile.

Soon, the group arrived at the teahouse that Xia Kingdom had specially prepared for distinguished guests from various countries.

The teahouse is very tall and has a completely classical style. It is not glittering or magnificent, but rather very simple and rustic.

As soon as everyone walked in, they saw groups of two or three sitting on rattan chairs, chatting casually like ordinary friends.

The hall was very large, with more than two hundred people, all representatives from various countries, the lowest level of whom were third-tier superhumans. They were all talking to each other with suitable strangers.

To put it simply, this is a social gathering place provided by the Xia Kingdom for high-level extraordinary individuals who come here.

In a corner of the hall, three ordinary-looking superhumans, along with a superhuman creature resembling a teddy bear, were drinking tea.

"I didn't expect Morax to actually use the identity of Zhongli to sneak into the delegation and stroll around," Luo Sheng said jokingly, holding a cup of fifth-grade fine tea.

"Sigh, I didn't expect it to turn out like this." Zhongli sighed helplessly: "Originally, it was that girl Hu Tao who wanted to come, but she insisted on bringing me along, saying that she wanted to promote the business of the Hall of Rebirth on Earth."

“Sigh… I’m about the same…” King Ruo Tuo, looking like a bespectacled scholar, said with a slightly embarrassed expression: “Liyue currently only has Xiang Ling at Tier 5. Tianquan Star somehow found out about me, this ‘immortal’ who stayed in Liyue Harbor, so he begged me to come along.”

I hope the Lord of Heaven won't think they've neglected their duties. That would be a huge problem.

“Xiangling is still too young. Ningguang gathered all the information about the immortals from Xiangling.” Maxius shrugged.

"Hehe, Hu Tao is indeed a very clever and quirky girl." Luo Sheng took a sip of tea and smiled at the three nervous-looking people.

"Don't be so nervous. Other gods couldn't resist coming here to join in the fun. It's good for everyone to have some fun together."

"Zhongli, you're here! I've been looking for you for ages!" A lively girl's voice came from that moment.

"Huh? Brother Luo? What are you doing here, Brother Luo? When did you arrive? I don't remember you."

Chapter 221: Candidate Underworld God, Establishment of the Pan-Civilization Alliance

A girl with reddish-brown twin ponytails walked over with her hands behind her back, skipping along with great energy.

The girl wore a reddish-brown Chinese-style dress with embroidered patterns of spider lilies and other flowers on the back, symbolizing farewell. She wore a Qiankun Taigua hat, symbolizing blessings, and her plum blossom eyes held a hint of mischievousness.

"Oh dear, Zhongli, I've been looking for you for quite a while. I didn't expect you to have taken Xiangling's rice crust and now you're here drinking tea with Brother Luo."

Hu Tao unceremoniously sat down in the empty seat next to Los Saint. Morax and the others dared not sit in the seats on either side of Los Saint. Sitting here would be a silent way of saying that I am no less important than Lord Tianli.

Only a girl like Hu Tao, who doesn't know any better, would dare to sit down so casually.

“Lord, it’s been a while since I’ve seen you. I looked for you for quite a while when Liyue moved to Mars. I thought you hadn’t made it down in Teyvat, which made me worry for a long time.” Hu Tao leaned close to Los Saint and examined him closely.

"I'm sorry to have worried Master Hu," Luo Sheng said with a gentle smile.

The 'Little Underworld' exclusively for Liyue has been created, and the five central Underworlds are temporarily taking over its management, just waiting for a unique Underworld governor to be appointed for Liyue.

Being the governor of the underworld is a lucrative job. As long as there is birth, aging, sickness, and death, the underworld will continuously generate merit. It is a bit tiring, but the promotion is fast. Currently, the governors of the central underworld are already at the seventh level, and the train conductors of the underworld are all at the sixth level.

However, once you become the ruler of the underworld, you are basically bound to the underworld. You are not as free as ordinary heroes. After all, there can be no mistakes in the affairs of the underworld, otherwise the impact will be too great. The influence of the underworld will also be reflected on the ruler. In serious cases, you will be demoted or even stripped of your qualifications.

With Hu Tao's dedication, she is well-suited to be a candidate for governor of the 'Liyue Underworld'. Once Hu Tao returns to Liyue, we'll arrange a 'Underworld Adventure' for her.

"Oh my, Immortal Dragon, Guest Elder Zhongli, Guoba, and Brother Luo." Hu Tao looked at the three people and a teddy bear, nodding her head from time to time, her twin ponytails swaying back and forth.

"Tsk tsk tsk~ Guest Elder, you've always been so old-fashioned. You're so young, yet you give off the vibe of an old man. I knew I was right."

“…” Zhong Li sighed inwardly. It seemed that Hu Tao had guessed some of his identity. Given Hu Tao’s clever and quick-witted personality, she just deliberately didn’t reveal it.

"The dumplings have been exposed, hahaha, Zhongli." King Ruotu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"If you can chat and laugh with Immortal Dragon, then my guest must also be an immortal, right? And Brother Luo must be an immortal too." Hu Tao clapped her hands together as she looked at the silent Zhong Li.

Luo Sheng smiled but didn't say anything, while Zhong Li remained silent, unsure of what to say.

"Oh, Guest Elder, don't be so silent. So what if your immortal identity has been discovered? Do you think I, Hu Tao, would change my attitude towards you because of your immortal identity?" Hu Tao put her hands on her hips.

"In my opinion, immortals are actually quite similar to humans, only more powerful. The Hall of Rebirth has held farewell ceremonies for many immortals throughout the ages. When you, my guest, depart in the future, the Hall of Rebirth will also see you off."

"However, given the lifespan of an immortal, I, Hu Tao, certainly won't live to see that moment. What a pity."

"Hahahahaha..." Luo Sheng couldn't help but laugh out loud, looking at Zhong Li who was speechless for a moment: "Zhong Li, do you think Hall Master Hu will have a chance to bid you farewell in the future? Why don't we give Hall Master Hu a chance?"

"Pfft... Hahahaha, yes, yes, heavens... Mr. Luo is right, Zhongli, I will definitely mourn for you then." Upon hearing this, the Dragon King Ruotu couldn't help but burst into laughter.

He couldn't have imagined that he would be sending off Morax, who was already the 'Great Power God-King', to his death. If it weren't for the suppression by a power of the level of Lord Tianli, the Great Power God-King could have lived until the seas dried up and the rocks crumbled.

"Hehehehe..." Guoba also covered his mouth with both hands and chuckled.

"Hey, hey, what are you laughing at? I didn't say anything wrong. Although immortals have long lifespans..." Hu Tao suddenly remembered something and slapped her forehead: "Oh dear, I forgot. This is a new world. Fifth-order extraordinary beings can live for five hundred years, and sixth-order beings for several thousand years. Immortals are at least sixth-order, so they might live for tens of thousands of years."

"So, the Hall of Rebirth can no longer do business with immortals."

"Haha, I quite like a clever and mischievous girl like you." Luo Sheng said with a smile, looking at Hu Tao's conflicted expression. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and a deep purple light flashed, revealing a token in his hand.

"Here you go, Little Walnut. It might be of great help to your career."

The three gods of Zhongli immediately straightened their eyes. Hu Tao might not understand what it was, but they could see it clearly.

That is the 'key' that leads directly to the 'Liyue Underworld'. It also contains a chaotic underworld rule. This rule will condense into a power fragment suitable for Hu Tao based on her growth. As long as her experience and growth meet the standards, she will directly ascend to the seventh-tier demigod.

Zhongli, the Dragon King Ruotu, and Maxius exchanged glances instantly.

"It seems Lord Tenri has personally chosen Hu Tao as the Underworld God of the Liyue Civilization."

'Yes, Hu Tao may not have much else to offer, but she's incredibly lucky.'

Zhongli also plans to train Hu Tao to become the God of the Underworld, since the Underworld of Liyue cannot be managed by the Central Underworld forever.

“Eh…” Hu Tao looked at the purplish-black token handed to her, with the character ‘冥’ on it: “A celestial talisman?” She quickly waved her hand to decline.

"No, no, I cannot accept a gift without merit. I have not done anything commendable for Liyue yet, how can I accept a celestial treasure? Immortal Luo, I cannot accept this."

During her time in the new world, she only helped Liyue cultivate some land and drive away the monsters, without making any significant contributions, even though she is now a late-stage fourth-tier transcendent.

But precisely because she was only at the late fourth rank, it proved that she didn't have any remarkable achievements. In her opinion, she needed to be at least at the fifth rank to make an outstanding contribution to Liyue, and only then could she accept the gifts from the immortals with a clear conscience.

“Cough cough cough…” Zhongli coughed lightly: “Hall Master Hu, just accept what Mr. Luo gave you. Accepting the gift first will allow you to contribute more to Liyue.”

“Yes, yes, little walnut, keep it,” Ruoduo chimed in.

Marcius nodded quickly.

This is the God of the Underworld personally appointed by the Lord of Heaven. If you miss this opportunity, it's hard to say whether you can become the God of the Underworld in the future. Even if you can become the God of the Underworld, it will take a long time. Even if Hu Tao has good luck, it will still take at least several hundred years. As for rules, even humans with extraordinary comprehension will not be able to grasp even a trace of them without several decades or hundreds of years.

Hu Tao looked at the smiling Luo Sheng and the others who were trying to persuade him, and said, "Since the immortals have all said so, if I, Hu Tao, don't accept it, I would be disrespecting the immortals." After saying that, she held the 'Immortal Talisman' in both hands.

"Thank you, Brother Luo. Please don't hesitate to ask if you ever need my help in the future."

She didn't call him "Immortal Luo." Immortals all use aliases to live as ordinary people in Liyue Harbor, which means they must enjoy the ups and downs of the human world. Therefore, they need to communicate with people in a way that is appropriate for them. Continuing to call him "Immortal" would only offend the immortals.

"Zhongli, Liyue should nurture more clever and bright children like Hu Tao." Luo Sheng conveyed his divine thoughts to Zhongli.

"Liyue is a land of outstanding people and abundant resources, and there are many children as gifted as Hu Tao," Zhongli said. It seems that Lord Tianli really likes such gifted children.
