Check: skip.

Thus: "His body still unable to move freely, Wu Tie clutched a turtle shell with both hands, jangling the few coins inside with a Ding‑ling‑dang‑lang sound."

Splish-splash, money scattered beside the Immortal-Ascending Pool, Wu Tie carefully examined for a moment, murmuring: "There's a change…… did the fog cause them a loss? Hmm, seems, also somewhat related to me? Goddess Island? How come the goddess island and those so-called deities are also involved?"

In the nebula vortex in his mind, a few tiny specks of starlight flickered.

This is a Dao seal condensed from heretical arts related to divination and prediction.

Wu Tie calculated with his fingers, and as he calculated, the consumption speed of the spiritual liquid in the Immortal Ascension Pool rose rapidly.

At the bow of the giant ship, Old Tie squatted on the railing, looking wistfully toward the northeast: 'I always feel a bit uneasy, strange—I'm not that brat Wu Tie, I haven't cultivated all that weird nonsense, so why do I have this feeling?'

"Hmm, I just feel..."

Amidst a 'chi-chi' sound, in the northeast three thousand li away, a patch of floating cloud in the high sky suddenly shattered, a point of lightning exploded, directly blasting a hundred-zhang-wide gap in the void.

A thin, elongated stream of cloud jetted from that void rift, carrying a sharp tearing-through-air sound as it flew toward Old Tie.

This stream of cloud flew forward a dozen li, then was entirely shrouded in azure lightning; with a crisp 'crack', the whole stream, several li long, suddenly leapt into the air and arrived directly before the Myriad Spirits Void-Crushing God-Slaying Vessel.

Upon the stream of cloud, a Thunder God Ship shimmered with faint electric light; dozens of warriors in heavy armor from the Heavenly Court Thunder Division stood on the prow, gazing dully at Old Tie.

Old Tie rose to his feet, drew his Water Fire Divine Spear with a ringing 'clang', and lightly pointed it at those Heavenly Court Thunder Division warriors.

"Just these few people? I heard you guys caused a big stir last time for the boss—why did you bring only this handful to pick a fight this time?"

Behind Old Tie, dozens of towering Giant God Soldiers approached silently, their eyes flashing with faint crimson gloomy light as they fixed their gaze on those dazed Heavenly Court warriors.

A Heavenly Court warrior stepped forward a few paces and muttered in a low voice: "Nu Xiu Luo?"

Old Tie's body stiffened.

He, aside from having once reported his name to Wu Tie long ago, had not heard or spoken the three words 'Nu Xiu Luo' in many years.

Even Old Tie himself was about to forget that name.

He narrowed his eyes, looked at that Heavenly Court warrior, and said coldly: 'Grandfather is here—who are you looking for, your grandfather?'

The Heavenly Court warrior's eyes flashed with lightning as he said: 'Chaos Change? Have you completed it?'

Old Tie raised his eyebrows: 'Looks like an old acquaintance—may I ask who you are? Is this Heavenly Court your creation, Mysterious Void?'

The Heavenly Court warrior silently smirked, flipped his palm, and a square jade tablet, wholly transparent and radiant with flowing colors, appeared in his hand: 'I am… my serial number… Study Nine.'

The Heavenly Court warrior threw the jade tablet toward Old Tie.

Old Tie stepped back a pace, and a Giant God Soldier caught the jade tablet; two thick armor plates on its abdomen slid open to reveal a deep recess, into which the soldier slotted the tablet with perfect precision, leaving no gap.

The Giant God Soldier's eyes flashed with crimson gloomy light, then began to pulse rapidly.

"The Heavenly Court's main force is just behind; they'll enter the battlefield in an hour."

The speaking Heavenly Court warrior said in a deep voice: 'All the antecedents and consequences are in the information I gave you. This time, the Heavenly Court's great army will collapse without battle; you just need to cooperate with them to kill a batch of unlucky dupes they've schemed against.'

"From this moment on, I am entered into your battle sequence and will obey your commands." The Heavenly Court warrior bowed to Old Tie, then the Thunder God Ship swiftly turned and fled backward, dragging the stream of cloud with it.

Old Tie suddenly shouted: 'Serial Number Study Nine? Are you… that shameless fellow who gave himself the name Zhuge Liang?'

With a sharp 'crack', the Thunder God Ship lunged toward the northeast, fleeing in a rather embarrassed manner, disappearing without a trace.
