forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng didn’t forget to leave a spiritual imprint at this place—he didn’t have the time to handle this matter now,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but after February 9, when he sat at the Tathagata Celestial Position and successfully built High Heaven City,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he would naturally have enough time and energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time loops...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such a fleeting moment, Zhang Fusheng had already thought of the greatest use for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For instance, I could pull that dual-pupiled one called Xiang Yu into High Heaven, make a deal with him, and buy his dual pupils and his astounding strength.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I would let him and Liu Bang go back, let the white snake devour them, reset everything—and thus, I could buy it again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cycle after cycle, endlessly....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng thought endlessly, murmuring to himself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s a pity, it seems to be of no use—wholesale dual pupils?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dual pupils, a special constitution renowned even in the ancient times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He licked his lips, suppressing the urge to interfere and trade immediately; one wrong move, and he might also be trapped in the loop,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and that would truly be troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, this place involves the mysterious concept of time, knocking on the Gate of the Past may not necessarily work, it’s better to be cautious, better to be cautious...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Fusheng cautioned himself thusly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.........\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where is this place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yingtian City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black coughed, looking around in confusion, as he and another Divine Spirit took to the sky, their Divine Thought scanning the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An infinitely vast land, in the distance there’s a Profound Yellow Waterfall flowing upwards, immeasurably broad... no, it’s not a waterfall, it seems like a mountain range?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black murmured, exchanging a glance with the elderly Divine Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this very moment, the entire Yingtian City was engulfed in panic, in chaos, in riots,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even the stationed troops were showing signs of mutiny, yet the two Deities did not concern themselves with these matters, instead exploring this unknown realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There are living beings, it is not the Divine Realm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly Divine Spirit pointed into the distance, his eyes radiating divine light:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There seem to be several ancient empires, I see some Divine Statues—perhaps there are Divine Spirits in this world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black nodded, and with a thought, gathered hundreds of mortals from a distant ancient city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is this place?\" He solemnly asked, his celestial presence overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hundreds of mortals, after a brief panic, quickly adapted, looking at the two Deities with curiosity, without any trace of fear on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What is this place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black frowned, displeased, guarding against the massive Buddha who had vanished without a trace, while intending to directly kill half the people to quickly instill fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celestial might descended, pressing upon half of the mortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is this possible?\" The young man in black was astonished, incredulous, a Divine Spear manifesting in his hand, which he raised and hurled!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Spear struck firmly between the forehead of a mortal, but did not even graze the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Deities were alarmed, trying many lethal methods, but could not harm these mortals no matter what!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look at that.\" The elderly Divine Spirit suddenly pointed towards a mighty mountain peak in the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black gazed over, clearly seeing at the summit of the mountain, a colossal Celestial Stele with inscriptions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He softly read:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For mortal beings... this realm forbids mutual harm??\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Divine Spirits exchanged frightened glances, the elderly Venerate swallowing hard:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the legendary Rule Celestial Stele?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems so.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black nodded solemnly, knowing there was also such a Celestial Stele on the home planet, the text upon which transformed the planet into a deformed world composed of innumerable Bubble Heaven and Earth stacked together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Related to that massive Buddha.\" The elderly Divine Spirit asserted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He amiably inquired of the mortals, eventually arriving at the desired answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is the Human Realm.\" A mortal spoke matter-of-factly: \"To be precise, it’s the Human Realm of the Three Realms, within the World Honored Country!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"World Honored Country?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black raised an eyebrow:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What other nations are there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The honest man counted on his fingers:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"World Honored Country, Central Extreme Country, Human Ancestor Country, Wa Country, and Daoist Country!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoever you believe in is the great Divine Spirit, that’s the country you’re in!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly Divine Spirit squinted:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Three Realms... doesn’t that mean there are two more realms?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The honest man nodded, pointing one hand to the sky and the other to the ground, earnestly speaking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Celestial Realm is above, the Netherworld is below!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two Deities furrowed their brows, looking up, vaguely seeing clouds roiling, and gazing upwards beyond the clouds, seemed to glimpse an ancient palace and a majestic Celestial Gate!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They exchanged glances and then soared into the sky,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>yet they could not cross the thick layer of cloud no matter what.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Undeterred, they attempted to go underground, descending countless miles until reaching the deepest part of the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can’t go further down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The young man in black stepped upon the faint chaotic fog at the deepest place, eyes glowing with divine light, attempting to see through the scene beneath the fog.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faintly, he saw an enormous river that stretched infinitely, saw innumerable wandering Soul Spirits and skeletons,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>vaguely glimpsing a towering Divine Mountain, upon which seemed to be a palace...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me try!\" The elderly Divine Spirit spoke, attempting to deduce and divine the hazy Divine Mountain,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>visions reflected in his eyes, showing an Imperial Palace, and an Emperor’s Shadow...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Emperor’s Shadow opened its eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Poof!!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elderly Divine Spirit spat out a mouthful of blood, crying out in pain, divine blood flowing from his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Chen!\" The young man in black exclaimed, while the staggering elderly Divine Spirit responded: \"I’m alright...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took deep breaths:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I divined and deduced an utterly terrifying existence, and suffered backlash...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1023,"2026-06-08T09:33:25.352Z",1,"novelbin.me","bbc9ef6c08929dd89c1927393adfc20cb6c6a9091e554204a44b245c9e57fbe4","secret-buyer-chapter-197","secret-buyer-chapter-196",547,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsecret-buyer-cover.jpg"]
