A golden radiance was still flying forward over the planetary ring. Lin Tian and his harem would soon arrive at the headquarters of White Mist.
At this time, however, one of the girls suddenly frowned and hurriedly asked Lin Tian to stop.
"Bingyu, what's wrong?" Lin Tian looked back strangely at the woman who opened her mouth.
He Bingyu was one of Lin Tian's confidantes. At the same time, she was also a disciple of Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall and could be considered one of the Heavenly Mystery Dao Lord’s disciples, so she originally held a high position in Heavenly Mystery Dao Hall.
"My Dao Hall just received new information. Gu Nan fought White Mist’s Sand King. Both sides suffered heavy injuries, and Gu Nan has already left White Mist."
He Bingyu's face was frosty, as if there would never be any expression on her face. Only when she looked at Lin Tianshi would her expression contain a little tenderness.
"It’s a good thing that Sister Yu is here, or else we would’ve made another trip in vain!" Ling’er patted her little chest and laughed again. "It probably never occurred to them that we’d have an insider like Sister Yu inside their Dao Hall."
Because of He Bingyu's existence, they could receive immediate updates on Gu Nan’s whereabouts and all kinds of latest information on the continent.
And He Bingyu sincerely loved Lin Tian, so she’d never deceive them.
But it never occurred to them that although He Bingyu might be trustworthy, the information she obtained might not be.
……
"The process of reading the wills of various worlds and clearly writing out the goals they want us to accomplish is called translation."
"By carrying out a world’s will, that world’s origin will repay us—in many cases, that will be a direct demonstration of certain laws, which is of great benefit to us."
Red Tail’s sweet voice continuously echoed, while Gu Nan read the files in his hands and listened to her explanation.
"Who do you mean by 'us’?" Gu Nan suddenly interrupted her.
"Of course it's people like us, who are only a step away from Void Cutter Realm." Red Tail gave Gu Nan an odd look, not understanding why he’d ask this question.
In her eyes, Gu Nan was merely half a step away from that realm. ‘How can he not understand how beneficial a direct demonstration of laws is?’
Gu Nan sensed her surprise but could only secretly roll his eyes—he relied on Evil Value to level up. Since when did he have to comprehend the laws by himself?
After combining Red Tail’s words, as well as the documents in his hands, Gu Nan also gained a general understanding of a world’s will.
It wasn’t strange to receive a present after carrying out the world’s will. In fact, the expression "carrying out justice on heaven’s behalf" appeared a long time ago.
Some cultivators in ancient times actually received gifts from the Dao of Heaven because their actions just happened to agree with heaven’s will. As a result, their cultivation levels soared, and they were considered people who had contributed great merits to heaven and earth.
In the eyes of modern cultivators, the theory of merit was of course nonexistent, but the existence of the world’s will wasn’t a lie.
To put it bluntly, “translating” the world’s will meant being the first to seize the opportunity—as the translator of the world’s will, no matter who completes the mission after that, the world’s will would always reward the translator.
In game terms, Gu Nan understood this as the world missions existing in a mission hall, while translators seek and accept missions here.
There might be a large number of missions inside the mission hall, so translators usually tell others about missions and hire people to help them with it.
"People who translate the will of the world are called prophets and heavenly masters in some planes, but in most places, they have a unified name…" Red Tail looked up and said, "Heavenly Emissaries."
Those who fulfill the will of heaven were Heavenly Emissaries.
Gu Nan nodded, "What’s your translation method? Take it out."
Gu Nan was purely treating the earlier explanation as part of the story plot, but what he really cared about was the translation method.
Without further delay, Red Tail handed another document to Gu Nan while saying, "As for how to become a Heavenly Emissary, the information itself isn’t valuable, but the hard part is experience and… power."
Gu Nan looked up at her, then continued reading the file, because the first page of this document already pointed that out clearly.
If someone wanted to become a Heavenly Emissary, they must at least be an experienced Dao Lord and have a preliminary understanding of their own exclusive law. It would be even better if they were actually a Void Cutter Realm cultivator.
Because no matter the translation method, cultivators essentially had to use their understanding of laws to interact with and comprehend the world’s will, so as to translate world missions.
The translation method owned by White Mist was called "Mirror of White Mist." By creating a mirror covered with white mist, the world’s will be projected onto it, and cultivators can then explore and search through the missions list bit by bit.
"Mirror of White Mist" was a high-grade translation method, and even the organization’s name—White Mist—was derived from it.
"Interesting… Do you have a finished mirror?" After reading through the entire document, Gu smiled with great interest and asked Red Tail.
"Yes." Red Tail was already prepared and immediately nodded. Originally, White Mist only had two Heavenly Emissaries—the Sand King and her, so naturally they had extra mirrors lying around.
Red Tail took out a palm-sized mirror and handed it to Gu Nan. The mirror was obscured by a thick white mist, which made it impossible for people to see its true appearance.
At the same time, Red Tail also took out another mirror, where only a small portion was obscured by white mist. This was the mirror Red Tail used.
In the areas where the mist had been dispersed, a resplendent starry sky appeared on the mirror, so deep that people could lose themselves in it.
Red Tail brushed the mirror with one hand and explained, "By gradually eroding the mist with the power of your own laws, you can… eh?"
Halfway through her explanation, she saw Gu Nan raise the mirror expressionlessly, the power of shadows pouring out crazily from his hand and messily sweeping away the mist surrounding the mirror.
Although some "die-hard" areas were still covered with white mist, all of a sudden, more than 80% of the mist was washed away by Gu Nan.
"This…" Red Tail’s eyes almost popped out. It's not that she hadn’t seen other Heavenly Emissaries, and she had even seen people translate at a faster speed than Gu Nan, but those were all Void Cutter powerhouses!
She couldn't help glancing up at Gu Nan.
‘This young man, who was seriously injured by the King of the Deep Sea not long ago, is now merely an inch away from Void Cutter Realm?’
Gu Nan didn't care about her thoughts. He was busy scanning the surface of the mist mirror quickly, and sure enough, world missions were displayed one after another.
Some were tedious, some were simple; some came from famous large planes, while some planes were names he’d never heard of… But in sum, hundreds of missions were displayed in front of Gu Nan.
Gu Nan heaved out a mouthful of turbid air. He had been looking for ways to translate the world missions ever since meeting Lu Zhanyu on Ruby Fish Star.
Finally achieving his goal after scheming for a long time…
Even with Gu Nan's composure, at this time, he couldn’t help revealing a joyous expression.
He was a player. He could ignore the joy, anger, and sorrows of NPCs and the life and death of monsters, but he couldn’t ignore leveling up and clearing missions.
In a sense, this was the purpose of Gu Nan's existence as a player.
