Immediately rushing up upon sighting a boss or treasure in the wild was something beginner players did.

Players like Gu Nan always had to first measure the risks and benefits, as well as… whether the final harvest would be useful.

Gu Nan lost all interest in the time treasure after Lou Wanying explained its effects, and Valen’s unexpected appearance made him extremely vigilant.

Major god level existences already had the possibility of seeing through his identity as an Evil God, as long as he revealed enough information about himself.

Gu Nan, who was still on the frontlines just now, decisively hid back inside Zi Luo Heaven after abandoning the newly-accepted apostle, Qian Han. He was currently in his residence, waiting for news from other people.

Sure enough, the front pages of all of today’s newspapers were about the event that occurred at the frontlines.

Of course Valen didn’t attack because he was bored. Rather, it was a reason not even Gu Nan expected. He was fighting someone, and his opponent was one of the Thirteen Heavens—Clockwork Heaven’s Lu Wen.

"Clockwork Heaven’s Lu Wen… No wonder that umbrella contained the aura of another law of time."

Gu Nan continued to flip through the newspaper, and at the same time, he expressed sympathy for his bad luck.

Even in the frontline planes, this level of fighting between one of the Thirteen Heavens and a major god was also basically a once-in-a-century encounter, but he just happened to run into it.

Tiluo World was just one of many frontline planes. It was probably only affected by the aftershocks of the two’s battle.

As for the conclusion of this matter, no newspaper could give a clear answer. They didn’t even know who won or lost. After all, the people involved in this matter were too high of a level.

On the contrary, there was a follow-up article on the war between two astral worlds that once attracted the attention of everyone in the Myriad Heavens Universe, but it was immediately squeezed into an obscure corner of the newspaper when the powerhouse from Clockwork Heaven made a move.

Star Realm had been tentatively stabilized, while four Star Rulers had already appeared inside Nirvana Heaven, all of whom were bigshots with astral worlds at or above the Realm Level.

Who would ultimately win Nirvana Heaven, or whether they’d end up dividing it up among themselves, depended on their subsequent "discussion."

As for the current situation of the two Star Rulers personally involved, there was no need to say much on Red’s side, but the question of Zuo Zuo’s whereabouts had attracted many people's guesses. However, they didn’t have a definite answer yet.

In theory, if Zuo Zuo had completely fallen, then Nirvana Heaven should’ve collapsed directly, and its origin should’ve scattered in all directions, attracting many Star Rulers to try and snatch a piece for themselves.

On the other hand, if he was still alive, then Nirvana Heaven should be perfectly intact, and no one would be able to seize it.

But the current Nirvana Heaven was neither. The origin had begun to emerge naturally, but it didn’t scatter… Many weaker Star Rulers and even Void Cutters who were waiting for an opportunity to make a move were all extremely disappointed.

The Star Ruler was one with their own astral world. Nirvana Heaven’s strange current state made everyone confused about Zuo Zuo’s current situation.

It wasn't until someone dug up some ancient records that a fairly reasonable conclusion was drawn—Zuo Zuo was probably sealed inside a black hole plane!

Black hole plane—this was a special existence only mentioned in ancient records.

These planes had very special laws. Once any power reaching Void Cutter Realm appeared, it would be sealed by the plane inside itself, and the power would be completely isolated from the outside world.

This feature, which absorbed everything regardless of the source, was very similar to a black hole, so it was named after it.

"He was sealed?" After seeing this conclusion, Gu Nan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

However, there were also people who refuted this view. For example, some people argued that the characteristics of black hole planes were very distinctive, and a grand Star Ruler Realm figure would find clues soon after entering. How could Zuo Zuo fall victim to the plane by displaying enough power to trigger the sealing?

The arguments on all sides didn't attract much attention. After all, the key point was who would ultimately obtain Nirvana Heaven. Zuo Zuo, the down-and-out Star Ruler, was no longer within the scope of people's concerns.

Gu Nan placed the newspaper down and quickly threw all these things to the back of his mind.

He didn't have much interest in the feud between Zuo Zuo and Red in the first place. After advancing to Tier 5, not even a powerful Star Ruler like Red would be able to kill him when he was in the Heavenly Demon state, which meant that he truly had the power to protect himself now.

At present, the most important matter was to complete the construction of six basic structures and upgrade the Evil God Temple to Level 1, thus completing the First Round.

After completing the First Round and stepping into Tier 6, Gu Nan’s physical body would no longer be limited by the maximum physical strength allowed for beings before the First Round, and not only would his Evil God physique welcome another improvement, he would also be able to bring out more power from his Heavenly Demon state.

……

Time quickly flew by; two months passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past two months, Gu Nan spent most of his time in Zi Luo Heaven, collecting first-hand information from the frontlines—after all, a powerful major god had made a move. To say that Gu Nan wasn't curious at all was impossible.

But perhaps because newspapers wouldn’t contain too many insider secrets, the public news still contained no information on those two bigshots’ specific situations.

However, another wave of Rain of Time appeared a few days ago. There weren’t many casualties this time, but the implications behind this were thought-provoking.

In just two months, a bigshot on the level of the Thirteen Heavens actually attacked twice!

On the other hand, nearly two years had passed inside the Divine Kingdom, and the fourth and fifth structures "Populace Management Platform" and "Divine Servants Institute" had also been completed, and he’d almost saved up enough points for the sixth structure as well.

Populace Management Platform, as its name implied, was a structure used to manage the Divine Kingdom’s populace, while the Divine Servants Institute was the place where basic soldiers were produced. Divine servants were the most primitive troops of the Divine Kingdom.

Gu Nan didn't encounter any lucky random events while constructing them, but overall, the speed still satisfied him.

‘I should have enough points saved up by today.’ Gu Nan estimated in his heart.

At that moment, a maid hurriedly ran to him. "My Lord, Lord Roman came over personally. He said he has an important matter to discuss with you…"

Roman? Important matter?

Gu Nan rubbed his chin and expressed doubt at this neighbor's so-called important matter.

……

"In short, it's like this!"

Inside Gu Nan's house, Roman slapped a paper notice on the table. "Didn't you ask me about the frontlines before? As soon as I received the information, I immediately sent it to you… How about it? Aren’t I a good brother?"

"This really is an important matter…" Gu Nan agreed with some surprise.

Roman nodded with satisfaction at his attitude.

In fact, the message on the notice he brought was very simple. The Star Ruler of Clockwork Heaven, Lu Wen, issued a summons to the entire Myriad Heavens Universe.

He called on all experts who were at least Void Cutter Realm to head to the frontlines. Of course the reason wasn’t some nonsense like justice for their home country, but rather… to seize a treasure!

The secret treasure people talked about for two months finally appeared, and it was a blessed land named "Time Arena"!

"Time Arena…" Gu Nan repeated this familiar name and suddenly felt like he’d returned to his previous life.

Seeing him like this, Roman thought he was tempted and continued with a smile, "If you’re interested, then try it! I really envy you youngsters—"

Bang!

At that moment, the door to Gu Nan's house was suddenly pushed open, startling the maid outside. Four serious-looking cultivators quickly walked in, wearing the uniform of Astral Gate’s core members.

Their eyes swept over Gu Nan and Roman and quickly locked onto Gu Nan. "He is the target. Take him away."
