Chapter 95: Da Luo Shan Forcefully Ends, Are the Players Unable to Return?

As time passed.

The collision of those two energies on the mountainside ended.

The scene as described by the Mountain God began to unfold, and Su Qiu, led by the golden-uniformed Mountain Ghost, ascended to the summit to become a god.

"Go to the deepest part of the Shenmiao."

"Sit on that lotus platform."

"You will receive the mountain's recognition and, thereby, become the new deity of this mountain."

Su Qiu nodded.

Afterward, he followed the Mountain Ghost's instructions and went to the deepest part of the Shan Shenmiao.

Just as the Mountain Ghost had said, there was a sacred lotus platform here; Su Qiu sat cross-legged on the lotus platform, accepting the inheritance of the mountain's power.

【Ding!】

At this very moment, the system's long-absent notification sound slowly rang out.

【Congratulations to the host for completing all the Shenlu missions; you will receive the following rewards: Immortal's Blood, Myriad Thousand Realm, and Spiritual Qi Infusion.】

【Does the host wish to accept the Spiritual Qi Infusion and the Immortal's Blood immediately?】

"Yes!"

Su Qiu agreed without a second thought.

【Rewards are being distributed.】

The mountain's power arrived alongside the system notification, continuously amplifying the Spiritual Qi within Su Qiu's body, making him stronger! 【Immortal's Blood has been integrated!】

Rolling hot blood surged into Su Qiu's body, turning him bright red all over.

The terrifying blood-energy continuously impacted his flesh, organs, and viscera! His tissues were constantly collapsing, then reforming! — The old realm was about to break! The Immortal's Blood alone pushed Su Qiu's physical body level to the Golden Core realm; as long as enough Spiritual Qi was transmitted, he could leap directly to the Golden Core realm!

And as it happened, he had exactly that amount of Spiritual Qi right now!

The mountain's inheritance!

The power of ascending to godhood began to surge continuously into Su Qiu's body, causing a thick, terrifying Golden Core to condense within him.

The Golden Core was formed, and a new realm was reached!

At this moment.

Su Qiu was a true powerhouse of the Golden Core realm.

And not just an ordinary Golden Core realm, but the terrifying Golden Core Fifth Realm!

"The Immortal's Blood transformed my physical body and blood-energy, and the mountain's inheritance gave me the Spiritual Qi of the Golden Core realm, allowing me to successfully break through to this realm!"

Su Qiu opened his eyes, his expression excited.

This was only the beginning; he had to remember, he hadn't even accepted the system's Spiritual Qi Infusion yet!

With the transformation from the Immortal's Blood, Su Qiu didn't have to worry at all about his realm rising too fast and collapsing; he could continue to improve as he pleased! Thinking of this.

Su Qiu closed his eyes again.

He began to accept the Spiritual Qi Infusion from the system! 【Spiritual Qi Infusion is about to commence, please prepare yourself, host!】

After the prompt faded.

A terrifying, indescribable surge of Spiritual Qi poured entirely into the youth's body.

This Spiritual Qi, dense as water, soaked him, causing the Spiritual Qi within him to surge once more, and his realm pushed directly toward the Nascent Soul realm!

The Nascent Soul was formed! Nascent Soul First Grade, Nascent Soul Fifth Grade, Nascent Soul Seventh Grade! It wasn't until he reached the Nascent Soul Seventh Grade that the Spiritual Qi Infusion Su Qiu received finally ended! "Nascent Soul Seventh Grade realm!"

"Combined with the divine artifact Myriad Thousand Realm, I should be enough to rival a powerhouse of the Spirit Transformation realm, right?"

Su Qiu could not help but feel joy in his heart.

He knew that only by reaching the Nascent Soul realm would he be qualified to touch the deeper truths of the Xiuxianjie, such as... the game card he had just obtained from the hands of that mysterious darkness.

【Dong Wu Yuan】

He also had the confidence to deal with the next stop.

Thinking of this,

Su Qiu slowly stood up, preparing to leave.

Now that he had become the new Mountain God, there was no need to continue staying in this place.

It was also when Su Qiu reappeared before the Mountain Ghosts that the notification barrage belonging exclusively to the Dier Shijie appeared once again.

【Respected Destiny-Bearer.】 【Congratulations, you have completed the clearance conditions for 【Da Luo Shan】!】

【You have cleared the Gui Tan.】

【The nation bound to you, 【Great Yan Empire】, will receive corresponding rewards; the rewards will be released in 10 minutes!】

【Next, the Blood Curtain will provide you with two different options; please make your choice.】

【Option 1: Leave.】

【With your departure, 【Da Luo Shan】 will be removed from the Great Yan Empire's list of clearance dungeons, and the Great Yan Empire will no longer need to worry about the influence of this Gui Tan.】

【Option 2: Continue.】

【You may continue to explore in the Dier Shijie; if you choose this option, the Blood Curtain will no longer select a new Destiny-Bearer for the Great Yan Empire.】

【Please make your choice within ten minutes.】

【09:59:59】

It was also the moment this prompt appeared before Su Qiu's eyes.

Golden light radiated completely from the Shan Shenmiao, slowly expanding until it shrouded the entire Da Luo Shan.

The golden light dissipated the Guiyi behind countless players.

Allowing them to see with their naked eyes that Zhongdian Shanshenmiao standing at the summit of Da Luo Shan!

"What is going on?"

Some Chosen Ones were confused.

According to the situation with the 【Mother's Note】, even if a player successfully survived, this kind of situation shouldn't have occurred.

Why,

had the eerie feeling behind them disappeared?

And why could they even see the most important End Point Mountain God Temple clearly?

【What is going on?】

【Why did all the Chosen Ones have their crises resolved just because Su Qiu completed the clearance?】

【I don't know!】

【Aren't the Chosen Ones still struggling to survive over at the Mother's Note?】

【I really don't understand.】

【But this is a good thing, isn't it? Our Chosen Ones don't have to rack their brains seeking the correct rules anymore; isn't it great to just survive slowly?】

【Yeah! Our Xianshishijie doesn't have to worry about the potential arrival of Guiyi anymore either.】

【That's not right, if the Gui Tan had ended, the Blood Curtain should have sent an end notification to the Chosen Ones; why is there nothing now!】

【That's right, this point seems very strange!】

【.】

Not only the Chosen Ones themselves, but even the countless viewers in the Xianshishijie felt puzzled, and they kept sending barrage comments to ask.

And just as the barrage comments surged like a flood.

The Blood Curtain notification that everyone had been longing for appeared.

【Respected Chosen One!】

【Due to the special rule of Da Luo Shan, "A new deity has now appeared, and countless mountain ghosts have been suppressed once again," this Gui Tan instance has been forcibly closed!】

【Da Luo Shan has returned to its former tranquility; thank you for your participation.】

This was a notification different from all previous content; the Chosen Ones who saw these prompts were simply dumbfounded.

"No, what does this mean?"

The Gui Tan instance was forcibly closed, which was a good thing, but why hadn't the Blood Curtain teleported them back to the Xianshishijie! The Gui Tan was gone! What were they supposed to do staying in this bizarre world!

"Blood Curtain, Blood Curtain!"

One by one, the Chosen Ones began to call out to the Blood Curtain, attempting to get a new answer, but unfortunately, none of their cries received a response.

The Blood Curtain had disappeared.

It was as if it had never appeared before these people at all.

This meant that all of them would be trapped in the Dier Shijie, forever, and it would be impossible to ever go back. (End of this chapter)
