"I started from the ground up with the help of Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion, and everything I have today was given by Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. If push comes to shove, I can give it all back to Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion. I'm not like some people who turn the bowl upside down after eating and forget the favors they've received, betraying those who helped them cross the river."
"Don't talk about three thousand years, I'm willing to wait even ten thousand years!"
"If I can't wait, then my son will, and if my son can't, then my grandson will, and if my grandson can't, then my great-grandson will. Generation after generation, endless and unceasing, I refuse to believe that there won't be a day when we'll turn the tables!"
"Younger brother, heed your elder brother's advice; being frustrated and acting rashly is useless. Take advantage of the fact that the price isn't too high right now, come quick and line up. Let's all buy in at the bottom together; there's still hope to recoup our previous losses."
"Exactly, if you don't make a move now, you'll regret it in the future!"
"You all made a good profit following Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion in the past, right? Now take out a bit of it as a way to give back for the past. If there's a turnaround in the future..."
"You really think Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion will collapse, huh? If it were so easy to take down Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion and that big shot, some people wouldn't be resorting to these disgraceful tactics!"
"A true gentleman is open and forthright, while a petty person is always anxious and distressed!"
A group of gamblers, while queuing up, mocked those around them with reddened eyes in retort.
It has to be said, this kind of mockery indeed had some effect.
Some left in a huff, flinging their sleeves in anger, and others, clenching their teeth yet resolute, joined the end of the queue, causing it to grow ever longer. The numbers on the price board continually ticked upward.
"Bang!!!"
Within a nearby shop, watching the queue grow steadily longer, Zhou Shuwen's fingers clenched, and he crushed the teacup in his hand to dust. Scalding tea spilled over, only to be instantly evaporated by the sword qi he released.
"Cowards, unworthy of grand exploits!"
"..."
Seeing Zhou Shuwen so beside himself, Zhou Tianqi by his side shook his head and chose not to say more.
On the other hand, Tantai Qin remained calm: "Hopeful hearts are common to all, but those who dare to see things through to the end are indeed a minority and will not become a major force. We have caused them significant losses; what follows, whether success or failure, will depend on how much the Demon Abyss is willing to part with."
Having said that, Tantai Qin didn't wait to see Zhou Shuwen's reaction and stood up to leave the room.
At this point in the affair, they had done all they could. Success or failure now rested on that person's power and the Demon Abyss's determination. They could no longer interfere, nor would they.
If successful, then Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion would cease to exist henceforth!
If not, then the Sky-reaching Tower would gain another powerful dragon!
But no matter the outcome, they wouldn't delve deeper, leaving some leeway for the future, so there'd still be room to maneuver.
This was the wisdom of living in the world!
...
At the same time, in the Territory World.
In Yellow Sky City, within the Taiping Palace, atop the Heavenly Court.
"Combine!!!"
A maiden channeled her mana, summoning billions of Spirit Light, gathering them in the void, slowly creating a structure.
One talisman after another, one array pattern after another, she issued continuously—some merging into the void, some branded upon the Magic Artifact, some connecting points of juncture, gradually forming a formation, a wondrous creation of nature.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
As the talismans were embedded, and the array patterns integrated, layers of prohibitions formed, uniting the billions of Spirit Light into one.
From outside, Xu Yang watched with folded arms, Ksitigarbha stood by, with Hua Mulan, Lv Qiling, Li Cunxiao, and other pillars of his realm lining up behind them, all watching intently.
Seeing the billions of Spirit Light gradually unite, even Ksitigarbha couldn't help but exclaim, "Venerable Lord's method is truly awe-inspiring, creating marvels with divine skill!"
"The Bodhisattva flatters me!"
Xu Yang smiled lightly, "Though this method draws from the Ten Thousand Techniques and the Hundred Schools' advantage, blending them into the mysterious creation, humans do have limits, and cannot match the Heaven's will."
"Divine Power can't match the Heaven's will, but human heart can define the Heaven's Heart!"
Ksitigarbha understood his words and replied with a light laugh, "With Qi Fortune on the Venerable Lord, facing these difficult times, this method will certainly shine brilliantly, saving the distressed masses and stabilizing the Demon Catastrophe!"
Hearing this, Xu Yang smiled again, "Then I'll accept the Bodhisattva's auspicious words!"
"Bang!!!"
As they spoke, billions of Spirit Light fused into one, forming a young girl—the Gongshu Ling, who stood atop the Heavenly Altar. With a flick of a hand seal and the utterance of a Curse Spell, her entire being turned into golden light and plunged into the Mech made of billions of coalesced Spirit Light.
The golden light entered, dispersing the Spirit Light, revealing the Mech's True Body—a colossal black stone suspended in mid-air, giving off an immense sense of pressure.
Soon after, golden light burst forth, infused throughout the Mech, taking control of the central matrix, connecting with ten thousand Artifacts.
Heavenly Mechanics Methods—Activate!
"Click! Click! Click!"
In an instant, the ten thousand Artifacts transformed, the black stone reassembled, and within the radiant golden light, a Mecha unfolded.
This was not just any Mecha, nor was it a simple mecha Battle Armor, but a humanoid figure, akin to a colossal black stone deity, towering into the sky.
