Then let them offer their loyalty!

"Leave only one mirror image in place and continue moving forward."

"After all, their mirror images are exactly the same as their original bodies in terms of aura, presence, appearance, and strength. It's impossible to tell them apart."

At this point, Qiu Tu paused for a moment, then added, "According to Zhao Ji."

"This is a 'divine skill' that combines support and combat."

"In the 'Battlefield of the Gods' hundreds of years ago, Tang Lang could not only help quickly transfer gods and god-kings, but also amplify the strength of his own side."

"If his own strength were weaker, using the 'Mirage Prism' to magnify his body several times over might not be as effective."

"But if he directly helps the God-King amplify..."

At this point, Qiu Tu paused again before saying, "The effect could be world-destroying."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua finally understood how terrifying this "divine skill" was.

It can be said that there is no simple effect among the "divine skills". Even the weakest "divine skill" is far superior to the ability of cataclysm.

Moreover, it often involves powerful amplification, law effects, and so on.

Thinking this, Shaohua couldn't help but glance again at the Invitation and Tang Lang couple who were still on their way, and then asked, "So... they may have already moved by now?"

Qiu Tu nodded slightly, "Most likely."

He explained his reasoning, "After all... with their capabilities, it's impossible that they haven't noticed you following them for so long."

"And... even if they hadn't discovered it, they should be heading towards the 'World Passage' as quickly as possible, not moving so leisurely."

Shao Hua was persuaded by Qiu Tu.

But because of this, she couldn't help but ask, "But... why did you just say that this might not necessarily be a bad thing?"

Qiu Tu's gaze fell on the god-king couple, his face full of confident strategistness.

He said, "The reason is very simple."

"Surveillance is a mutual thing."

"You thought you were the one spying on them. They were in the open, and you were in the shadows."

"But after they used the 'Mirage Prism,' you were actually in the open while they were in the shadows. They might be secretly observing us all along."

"Now that I've told you the truth, we can go with the flow, pretend to be monitoring them, and then turn around and monitor them again."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua hesitated for half a second before offering her assessment, "An endless nesting of dolls, huh?"

Hearing Shao Hua's rough but reasonable words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but smile. He didn't deny it, but nodded and said, "More or less."

However, Shao Hua is clearly quite capable to have helped Bai Yi maintain the "Southern Kingdom" for so long.

She looked at Qiu Tu suspiciously and said, "It can't be just this, can it?"

Qiu Tu's gaze lingered on Shao Hua for a moment. This female knight-errant was different from other women in this world. Like a drawn sword, her sharpness was fully revealed, possessing a classical Chinese beauty.

Although she possesses a classical air, her mind is remarkably modern; she is organized, thorough, and adept at identifying clues.

Aside from being a bit aloof, he can be described as a polymath.

So it's reasonable that I didn't hide it from her.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu gave her a deep look and then said, "Of course, it's not just that."

Qiu Tu said, "As I just said, after they went from the open to the covert, they actually started to monitor you instead."

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's reminder, Shao Hua frowned slightly, as if she had thought of something.

Qiu Tu's subsequent words confirmed her suspicions.

Qiu Tu said, "But don't forget that they have their own mission in coming here this time."

"So... they have to carry out their own missions while also drawing our attention and monitoring us in return. They're bound to have to split up."

Shao Hua's eyes lit up slightly. She quickly glanced at the God King and his wife in the distance, then said, "So... you mean they might give us the chance to defeat them one by one?"

Qiu Tu smiled and nodded in agreement, "Yes."

That's why I said 'this isn't necessarily a bad thing'.

At this point, Qiu Tu looked deeply at the God King and his wife, and then said, "According to your information, and Zhao Ji's speculation."

"Yaoqin is most likely a first-level god-king, while Tang Lang should be a peak celestial god."

"With the two of them joining forces, and with Tang Lang's amplification, Yao Qin's strength could reach a terrifying level. We have almost no chance of winning."

"But if we can take them down one by one, everything will become incredibly simple."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Shao Hua couldn't help but reply, "But if we can think of it, they probably can too, right?"

Qiu Tu nodded and admitted, "So... they definitely won't give us much time."

"This opportunity could be fleeting."

"We must seize this opportunity and achieve victory in one fell swoop."

After saying that, Qiu Tu didn't stand on ceremony and directly ordered, "Shaohua, I'll have to trouble you with the rest."

"I need you to maintain the status quo, keep their attention, and stall them."

"Then I will gather manpower and search for Tang Lang's whereabouts. I will try to capture him directly."

Although Shao Hua didn't particularly like Qiu Tu's commanding tone—after all, the two weren't in a subordinate relationship.

However, it must be said that now that the God King has descended, the entire world is facing the same great crisis, and it is necessary to unite all forces.

More importantly... the God-King descended upon the "Southern Kingdom," her uncle's territory.

If the God-King goes mad, she will be the first to suffer.

So, Qiu Tu may seem to be saving the world now, but actually... he saved her first.

If someone were cold-hearted, they probably wouldn't have acknowledged it. But although Shaohua is sexually frigid, she still has a sense of justice in her dealings with others.

Therefore, she knew that no matter what Qiu Tu's purpose was, he was helping her and the "Southern Kingdom".

And Qiu Tu was indeed one of the most resourceful people in recent years. Therefore, she nodded slightly and agreed to Qiu Tu's arrangement.

After making arrangements for Shaohua, Qiu Tu opened the "Order Space," concealed his figure and aura, and began to carefully and quickly search for Tang Lang and Yaoqin's whereabouts.

The invading god-king couple had clearly just discovered Shaohua's surveillance, so they didn't escape too far.

And as Qiu Tu had expected, Yao Qin wasn't nearby when he found Tang Lang.

It's even possible that Yaoqin wasn't around, which changed Tang Lang's entire demeanor.

It was a strange feeling. The person was still the same person, and the appearance was still the same.

However, Tang Lang in front of Yaoqin is a completely different person from Tang Lang when he is alone.

Qiu Tu thought about it carefully. In front of Yaoqin, Tang Lang was trembling with fear and had shifty eyes; but when Qiu Tu was alone, Tang Lang exuded a powerful aura and had the air of a master. He was not to be underestimated.

Qiu Tu didn't alert the enemy. Even if Tang Lang was just a peak Celestial God, he was still someone Qiu Tu couldn't handle.

So after confirming Tang Lang's location, he quietly retreated and then took out his communication-type Cataclysmic Noble Phantasms one by one to call for reinforcements...

......

at the same time.

The sea of ​​mandala sands, before the world's gateway.

Zehime stared at Lariro expressionlessly. But if you looked closely, you could see a hint of hesitation and complexity in her eyes.

Clearly, the problems Qiu Tu pointed out to her before leaving had indeed affected her.

'Reproduction method...cannot reproduce...can only be achieved through forced cultivation....'

Thinking this, Zhao Ji looked at La Ri Luo, who was being forced by her to sit cross-legged and cultivate, and pondered Qiu Tu's words.

As the person in this world who understands the essence of the "catastrophic pathway" best, Zhao Ji had to admit that Qiu Tu's guess was probably correct.

The "Cataclysmic Path" can be said to be the most important thing for a cataclysmic being. Cultivating along the "Cataclysmic Path" will make the process twice as effective, just like Qiu Tu, who quickly became a mid-level celestial god in just a few years.

Cultivating against the "catastrophic path" often yields less result with more effort. For example, Lariro.

Therefore, if I truly want to increase Lariel's strength before the great battle, the most important thing I should do is release her "Cataclysmic Path" and let her cultivate according to her own will.

This means that Larilu is likely to experience a surge in power, rapidly advancing to the peak of the eighth rank.

Then, as long as we find a way to get her the "divine status" and make her a "divine being," Zhao Ji can test her recent important conjecture.

However... thinking about the shared feelings between herself and Lariel, Zeki felt a little reluctant to let go of her ties with Lariel.

'Or... should we just block out our senses?'

'But...even if you block out your senses, you'll still feel like you're being...'

The more Zhao Ji thought about it, the more agitated she became.

Thinking this, she glanced at La Riluo, whose breathing was becoming increasingly unstable, and took the initiative to interrupt La Riluo's cultivation.

"If I remove the restrictions on you, with whom would you choose to follow your 'path'?"

Zhao Ji's words came without any context or explanation, which startled La Ri Luo.

She slowly stopped cultivating, opened her eyes, and looked at her sister with scarlet eyes.

Zeji looked at her calmly, offering no explanation, but waiting for an answer.

It took Larilu a good two or three seconds to realize what Zhao Ji was saying.

So she tentatively asked, "Qiu Tu?"

Upon hearing Larilu's words, Zehime let out a soft "heh," and then said, "It really was him."

Lari Luo instinctively felt that Zhao Ji's tone and words were a bit off.

Although she felt that Zhao Ji's words seemed to have guessed her choice, for some reason, she also felt that there was a trace of dissatisfaction or sourness in them.

'Is my older sister a little jealous?'

Lariel herself was a little surprised when the idea came to her.

A cunning glint flashed in her scarlet eyes, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, as if carrying a hint of mockery.

She tentatively asked, "Sister doesn't seem surprised by my choice?"

Zhao Ji was clearly distracted, so she didn't notice La Ri Luo's odd behavior. Instead, she casually hummed in agreement and then said...

"It's not surprising at all. After all... given your condition, I'm afraid if he slaps you, you'll still lick his hand."

Larilu's blood-red lips curved into an upward smile. She felt she was getting closer and closer to the truth.

She said, "But apart from Qiu Tu, there really aren't any other suitable candidates."

"Sister, you don't know, I did a lot of preparation to choose him."

“I even possessed him and followed him to the toilet. Only after I found that it was indeed very big, not like a silver spear or candle, and that I could flush it did I start to seduce him.”

Zehime: ? ?

Perhaps not expecting Larilu's conversation to suddenly become so explicit, Zhao Ji frowned slightly, narrowed her eyes, and looked at Larilu.

Larilu quickly flashed a sweet smile, just like a cute little puppy.

Zhao Ji felt that she might be overthinking things.

Then, Larilu suddenly added, "And, sis, don't worry, I know we can understand each other. I also know your personality."

"You want to do everything perfectly."

"I've verified it before, Qiu Tu can definitely do his best. He'll satisfy you, Gongtong."

Zehime: ? ?

Lariro's advances were rather subtle; it took Zhao Ji two seconds to even realize what was happening.

In that instant, her face turned ashen, and she flicked her finger.

The next second, Larilu was sent flying backward as if she had been hit by a bomb!

A loud "BOOM!" was heard.

Larilu screamed and crashed directly into that towering tree!

The towering tree swayed twice, casting dappled sunlight.

At the same time, Zhao Jiqi's chest heaved a few times, her expression as cold as ice.
