Barrier of Light

"I'm glad you remembered my contact information."

Above the night of Lingtie Mountain, helicopters circled around, their blades stirred up showers of rain, and their blazing lights tore through the darkness.

Cui Zhongcheng stood at the foot of the mountain holding an umbrella.

"Long time no see, Mr. Cui."

Gu Shen smiled and spoke.

He didn't hold an umbrella, and there was a blazing lantern hanging above his shoulders, so that the rain would naturally recede.

The same goes for Mu Wanqiu on the side.

She carefully looked at the man in the suit in front of her with curiosity. She could only remember Dongzhou's name.

Cui Zhongcheng's name happens to be one of them.

The well-deserved second-in-command of Fuzhi Group was born from the grassroots and has a legendary story. Twenty years ago, no one would have thought that Cui Zhongcheng, who came out of Qinghe, could be such an "unknown" person. Continuously rising and climbing, he eventually became the leader of the group that has endured the turbulence of two generations and remained unwavering.

"This must be the famous [Judge] in Beizhou?"

Cui Zhongcheng pushed up his glasses and spoke with a smile.

"yes."

Gu Shen said calmly: "I need Huazhi's help to deal with the news blocking issue in Lintieshan."

"no problem."

Cui Zhongcheng stretched out his finger, pointed at the towering dark mountain, and said: "I want to see what the situation inside is like, is that okay?"

…

…

When Gu Shen sent an email to Cui Zhongcheng, it happened that Mr. Cui happened to be working near Qinghe.

So in less than an hour, Cui Zhongcheng arrived at Lintieshan.

And then there's the previous scene.

The steps of Lintie Mountain are very long. Cui Zhongcheng put away his umbrella. Due to the blazing fire, the rainwater in a radius of about ten meters was evaporated, and a layer of mist enveloped the heads of the three people.

"Congratulations, you successfully got your own title."

Cui Zhongcheng said with a hint of ridicule: "In the middle of the night, I thought you came to Qinghe because of the matter of Wulao Mountain."

"I know they're doing fine."

Gu Shen said: "I still have to thank you for taking care of me."

Although he had left Qinghe for many years, Gu Shen had always cared about the small courtyard at the foot of Wulao Mountain.

Cui Zhongcheng has always fulfilled his promise back then.

Huazhi will give the small courtyard a sum of money every year. In addition, there is also just the right amount of humanistic sympathy.

The little courtyard is well taken care of.

The boys and girls who came out of the small courtyard also grew up under the care of the Huazhi Group. Following Gu Shen's instructions, these people were not involved in the extraordinary world. They lived in an ordinary, stable and orderly world. In this world, if there are no accidents, life will be spent peacefully.

"These are nothing."

Cui Zhongcheng smiled slightly and said: "I knew you would become a great person a long time ago... Any businessman who considers the 'cost-effectiveness of investment' will not miss investing in you."

Gu Shen also joked: "Isn't it inappropriate for Mr. Xiao Cui to compare himself to a businessman?"

"Businessman is not a shameful position."

Cui Zhongcheng said calmly: "I am originally the steward of Huazhi. I need to show performance every year, and investing in you is the most successful 'business' I have done in these years."

Gu Shen smiled knowingly when he heard this.

Cui Zhongcheng seems reluctant to admit his love.

However, Cui Zhongcheng is indeed such a person.

From the day they first met, Gu Shen felt that this Mr. Cui was different. The Zhao family was still in power back then. When Zhao Xilai died, there were a lot of struggles within the group.

Zhao Qi once tried to control the "Huazhi inheritance rights" as an only son.

However, Zhao Qi's plan ended in failure because of Cui Zhongcheng's strict defense.

After so many years, Cui Zhongcheng seems to have changed little, and the impact of time on him is almost zero. He is a perfect human being with no "flaws" in terms of emotions.

Cui Zhongcheng will laugh and maybe cry.

But in Gu Shen's perception, these seemed to be just superficial emotions.

Mr. Choi never really seems to show his joy, sadness, or anger.

People who are not emotionally drained will certainly not change.

The three of them walked into the disaster situation of Lintie Mountain.

"I will write [Lintieshan Disaster] into the Grand Adjudicator's case file manual."

Gu Shen said calmly: "There are traces of taboo beings in this disaster place... I can't tell who it is specifically."

"Taboos exist?"

Cui Zhongcheng's tone did not change. He said calmly: "Don't worry, I don't have any interest in things I shouldn't know."

The case file about Lin Tieshan is actually very easy to write.

Gu Shen is now the Grand Adjudicator of Dongzhou!

With his status, it is not an exaggeration to discover any major disasters or dangerous events. He does not need to explain to outsiders how "Lintie Mountain" was discovered.

Calling Cui Zhongcheng over now is just a routine matter.

"There are a lot of life pods here."

Gu Shen brought Cui Zhongcheng to the Bronze Hall. He said slowly: "What I need Huazhi to do now is... move these cabins back to the underground of the group."

Rumble.

The dull giant palace opened.

Cui Zhongcheng silently looked at the extremely shocking and spectacular sight in front of him.

At this moment, the underworld fire inside Lintie Mountain has been dealt with by Gu Shen.

Gu Shen gave up this wisp of hell fire to Mu Wanqiu, who was not polite and directly took action to swallow up this tiny wisp of hell fire.

The underworld fire dissipates.

The disaster lingering in Lintie Mountain also dissipated.

There is no need to worry anymore that extraordinary events like the previous [Black Jackknife] will occur.

"These life capsules are twice as many as those under Huazhi..."

After looking at it for a moment, Cui Zhongcheng looked at Gu Shen and said seriously: "Bring them back, the noise is too great, even if it is divided into batches, it will disturb many people. I need to explain to Mrs. Nan Zhi, and I also need to explain to the Dongzhou Council .”

Obviously, he could turn a blind eye to this disaster and ignore it.

But this explanation needs to be given by Gu Shen.

Chu Ling's voice sounded in Gu Shen's mind: "The [Neutral Person] who was transferred from Sang Island to Dadu has been raised by Hua Zhi and is currently undergoing [Research on Divine Infants]."

At this point, Gu Shen understood.

"I will tell Mrs. Nan Zhi personally."

Gu Shen said: "As for the Dongzhou Council... just move out the research team that moved from Sangzhou Cave. These are the remaining cabins of the northward relocation plan of Sangzhou Cave. They were all made by the church. Dongzhou only Responsible for humane treatment, and now with upgraded ice technology, these innocent victims can have peace for a longer period of time.”

"...You are really a genius."

Cui Zhongcheng was silent for a few seconds and gave such an evaluation.

Of course Gu Shen wouldn't think it was a compliment.

He said helplessly: "When it comes to the 'taboo existence', too much explanation is not a good thing."

"clear."

Cui Zhongcheng said: "Don't worry, I will send people to take away these cabins, but something unexpected happened, so we can only use the key members of the Dadu Chengxin Association. When they get here, it will take four hours at the fastest. At least until daybreak."

"As long as it can be done."

Gu Shen nodded slightly. He didn't care about the speed of the relocation of these life capsules.

After the task assignment is completed, he does not have to stay in Lintieshan.

"By the way, regarding this half-completed and abandoned divine realm, you'd better destroy it."

Cui Zhongcheng said calmly: "There are too many cabins here. Even the key members need to use several... Do you understand what I mean?"

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows.

Too.

After all, this is the divine domain left by the former Pluto.

Cui Zhongcheng wants to perfunctory and fool the parliament. If word of the scene here spreads... it will always attract the attention of interested people.

He put two fingers together and chopped the disaster.

Those pillars, those half-finished carvings, and the sinister and dark style of the previous Hades were all drastically modified by Blazing Fire.

It has been changed beyond recognition.

From semi-deserted to completely desolate.

"Okay, now this is a pure 'natural disaster'."

Gu Shen said: "I will solve the subsequent file and permission issues, and the rest will be yours."

…

…

The two got on the miniature energy boat and the hatch was closed.

The mountain rain was hazy, hitting the cabin of the source energy boat, making a crisp sound.

Mu Wanqiu did not rush to start the mini-boat, but pointed out: "A certain unknown Lord, have you forgotten something?"

"Fight, remember to be there. How could I forget such a big thing?"

Gu Shen smiled and said: "But do you want to fight in a place like this? There are many small rules in Qinghe District. The Lintieshan disaster area has just notified manpower to deal with it, and extraordinary people may rush over at any time."

Mu Wanqiu said calmly: "I think this place is very good."

"It's pretty good."

Chu Ling's voice sounded in Gu Shenxin Lake, and she sent several mental projections and corresponding coordinates very "unconsciously".

"There are several hills in the uninhabited land of Qinghe District, which are very suitable for you to fight. No one will step into it on weekdays... As for the extraordinary person who can deal with the disaster, it will take four hours at the fastest to arrive. I can provide it for free. Monitoring Services.”

She had been looking forward to it since Mu Wanqiu announced her trip south.

Talk about it.

Chu Ling was also curious about how far the S-class [Judge] had grown now.

There is such a super AI who never forgets things and is always thinking about taking advantage of others.

Gu Shen knew that this matter could never be ignored.

"Thank you."

Gu Shen replied helplessly in his heart.

Then return to the real world and sigh lightly.

"...I think this place is pretty good. Let's start the energy boat and let's pick a good place."

The mountains opposite the Qinghe River are very majestic. Due to the rapid pace of development in Dongzhou, the parliament has enclosed this entire huge mountainous area in recent years and designated it as a "resource area".

In the extraordinary world, [Deep Sea] directly defines this place as no man's land.

No entry is allowed without permission.

Looking at it now, it is obvious that this decision was made by Mr. Gu Changzhi back then, and he protected the disaster temple of the former Pluto with the highest authority.

The mini-boat sailed away from the boundary of Lintie Mountain and finally arrived at a barren mountain a hundred miles away.

"Arrived at the target location: Zhaiyun Mountain."

The automatic navigation system that Chu Ling took over announced in a soft voice, and the mini-boat slowly moored.

"You chose this place well. It has mountains and water."

Mu Wanqiu praised.

Chu Ling replied in his heart: "Of course, this is the best place for a duel in no man's land."

"You seem to want to see me fight with her?"

Gu Shen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He hadn't seen Chu Ling so active in a long time.

"That's right. I want to see your level under 'Fight to the Death'."

Chu Ling said seriously: "I have been using the database to calculate your strength. From the day you awakened to the extraordinary, the calculation of the database has not stopped..."

Gu Shen still remembers everything he had to do and every enemy he had to fight when his cultivation was still shallow.

Chu Ling was able to give clear probabilities.

"But you disappeared in the ice sea for six years and reappeared. Your strength has exceeded the estimation of the 'database'."

Chu Ling's voice was full of regret: "I have no way to accurately calculate your strength... In the Battle of Red Lake, you successfully killed Jia Wei. After this battle, I knew that it would be difficult for me to give you any more Computing power support is provided.”

There is a lot of data that cannot actually be calculated.

For example, in a deadly battle, potential explodes.

"It's just that calculating your various 'probabilities' has become my... habit." After thinking for a few seconds, Chu Ling came up with this relatively appropriate word.

AI has no habits.

It is her mission to provide [Key] with maximum help.

But now that it has developed to this point, Chu Ling has broken away from the limitations of the program. She is a living person of flesh and blood.

Providing computing power support has become a common thing.

She wanted to do something for Gu Shen within her ability.

Even these assistances now seem meager and no longer important.

"……I see."

After Gu Shen listened, he took a breath and said, "I will fight this fight well. Remember to collect all the data."

…

…

The mountain was swaying with rain and was torn apart by the blazing fire. Chu Ling drove the mini-boat away from the empty top of Zhaiyun Mountain and anchored in the distance.

Gu Shenxin waved a ray of fire.

It is not unusual for a duel between extraordinary beings who have reached this realm to destroy mountains and rivers.

If he really wants to go to war with Mu Wanqiu, this Zhaiyun Mountain will be leveled in a short time.

So Gu Shen set up a barrier.

He arranged this barrier to be very large, covering almost the entire Zhaiyun Mountain, in order to ensure that the extraordinary aura of this aircraft would not leak out and avoid being sensed by the extraordinary beings stationed in Qinghe District, thus causing unnecessary Trouble.

"I really want to know what happened in that fight between you and Xiaoxiu?"

After doing this, Gu Shen put one hand behind his back.

"I lost, and I lost badly."

Mu Wanqiu stood at another place on the top of the mountain. She did not shy away from the outcome of the battle and spoke word by word.

"Whether it's mental, domain, or physical skills, I lost."

"An all-round victory?"

Gu Shen looked solemn and asked confirmingly: "The Little Sleeves Sijutsu suppressed you?"

Mu Wanqiu was born in Beizhou and joined the army early.

First, he followed Lu Zhe, and after being promoted to the captain of the first team, he must have also undergone special training with the commander of the Purple Rain Corps.

There are only three generals in Beizhou.

But Ziyu, who controls [Dragon Annihilation], is actually the fourth general in the future!

Ziyu's strength is very strong, and her physical skills are the best among the best... Growing up in such an environment, Mu Wanqiu's physical skills should be the strongest part.

"good."

Mu Wanqiu said: "It's just... that was before I followed the commander of the Purple Rain Army for special training. At that time, Baixiu had just arrived in Beizhou and had not yet become a disciple of Silver Fox."

"I see."

Gu Shen smiled: "Since you lost once, you are embarrassed to fight with Bai Xiu again."

"...You can understand it this way."

Mu Wanqiu looked very serious and said: "Victory and defeat are common things in military affairs. If I lose to Baixiu once, I may not have a chance to win back."

She is indeed an S-class genius born for fighting.

Be indifferent between winning and losing.

It doesn't matter if you lose one game, there are many more games to come in life.

Even though he was crushed by Baixiu in all directions, Mu Wanqiu was not discouraged.

"I'm very happy to be able to say this..."

Gu Shen stretched out a hand and waved.

"As expected of the [winner] I fancy, I will do my best."

"Ah."

Mu Wanqiu's eyebrows were raised, she stretched her waist and swayed her curves. This scene seemed beautiful, but it did not make people have alluring thoughts.

Because when she stretched out her waist, countless red scales flew over and enveloped the already tight-fitting combat uniform, and within a few seconds, it was pieced together into a complete source armor.

"The technology of the Underground Research Institute has improved again."

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

He already felt the cold killing intent and danger.

Buzz——

A sonic boom sounded from behind.

A feeling of oppression like a huge mountain appeared out of thin air behind Gu Shen. He didn't need to look back to know that it was the [Judge] teleporting. Because the speed was too fast, the space was torn apart.

"Eula!"

The judge in white punched out.

Behind Gu Shen, a hanging tree descended, and countless long leaves flew together, condensing into a solid ice shield.

With a "boom", ice fragments exploded all over the sky!

This punch was so heavy that it directly shattered the ice shield of the Pure Land. This showed that Mu Wanqiu had indeed been looking forward to this battle for a long time, and she had no intention of showing any mercy.

If Gu Shen's defense is not enough, this punch will be enough to seriously injure him!

"very good……"

Gu Shen abandoned distracting thoughts and entered a state of flow.

The judge's punch shattered the elemental ice shield condensed in the Pure Land, but that was all. The chill of [Nirvana] began to corrode, and the white-clothed ghost's arms and sleeves were entangled in the pale wind and snow. The latter's pupils shrank, and he wanted to convulse. But it was too late, and the entire arm was quickly frozen by frost and snow!

Gu Shen turned around and grabbed this huge arm.

He was equally merciless.

Cross your hands.

Click!

The big ghost in white who was blocked by the ice element had one of his arms cut off——

[Judge]’s pupils were full of fear and pain!

It roared angrily and punched again.

Gu Shen punched his fist with no expression on his face. This punch was still wrapped in the [Nirvana] frost of Dacheng Pure Land. He didn't care at all about this level of field confrontation.

Mu Wanqiu's S-level ability is the ultimate suppressor for other extraordinary beings.

But here, I am at the downstream of being suppressed!

"Judge, leave!"

The red-armored woman at the far end of the mountain raised her hands and clasped her hands together. Just when her fist was about to collide with Gu Shen, the big ghost in white suddenly disappeared and was led back to her master. At the break of her arm, there was a black hole spinning and gathering. The fracture is frantically absorbing the surrounding free essence, and after a few seconds, it grows again!

Domain deities in spirit form have unlimited self-healing capabilities, and injuries like a broken arm are nothing.

It's just that the pain they suffered will be passed on to the original deity.

However, Mu Wanqiu's expression was calm, and there was no sign of any pain. He didn't even sweat a drop.

"Is it a characteristic of the second realm? You seem to be able to ignore the pain of the spiritual body."

Gu Shen said calmly: "If you really have to rely on willpower to endure, even I can't do it like you..."

"It is what it is and I am who I am."

Mu Wanqiu still kept her palms clasped together and said softly: "If we are together, if we are apart, it seems that one is not one."

The words fell.

Gu Shen frowned.

The frost and snow in the Pure Land suddenly began to tremble!

That broken arm, frozen by the wind and snow, actually began to absorb the source of the pure land at this moment... Using this arm as a dot, the blurred outline of the big ghost in white condensed, struggled, and then recovered bit by bit!

The second judge resurrected in Gu Shen's pure land!

"The so-called judge is the one who controls life and death, and determines life and death... He must first decide his own life and death before he can judge other living beings."

Mu Wanqiu slowly removed a palm.

She spoke calmly.

"This is the first realm of [Judge]... I named it 'Jia'."

In the spirit state, [Judge]'s self-healing ability is close to unlimited. As long as Mu Wanqiu's mental strength is sufficient, [Judge] can expand endlessly.

The most terrifying thing is.

[Judge] can be revived with the help of external sources...

This is the sudden change in the field that occurred after becoming Gu Shen's champion. Mu Wanqiu has special authority to deal with the source of disorder, so she can use the source of outsiders to revive her own field!

"...?"

When Gu Shen realized something was wrong, it was already too late.

The frozen arm suddenly stretched out its five fingers and grabbed Gu Shen's wrist. The big ghost in white who grew up from the pure land, with a ferocious face, used this power to tie Gu Shen tightly. Hug it in your chest!

Mu Wanqiu's fighting spirit reached an extremely high point in these few seconds of brewing!

She and the first judge disappeared at the same time.

The next moment he appeared, he would arrive directly behind Gu Shen!

One man and one spirit body punched out at the same time. They punched Gu Shen directly on the shoulder with great force. The second [Judge] that emerged from the attack tightly held the man in his arms, preventing him from getting away!

boom!

Mu Wanqiu punched directly through the second judge's chest and abdomen——

But there is no blood splattering scene!

The second spirit body bent over in pain, its body was penetrated by the owner himself, and the second differentiation began...

As for the real target of this punch, Gu Shen completed the incredible dodge while being "tightly bound".

"Have you also understood the [Complete Flash] after the Dacheng realm?"

Mu Wanqiu moved her head to look at where she was standing. In just a moment, the two of them exchanged positions.

"Not bad. Some insights after breaking through the ice sea."

Gu Shen dusted off the dust on his shoulders and said with a smile: "This is also the word used... This must be very difficult, right? Did Xiao Xiu realize it before paying homage to the general?"

Gu Shen did not expect that Mu Wanqiu's first field would be so amazing.

Especially after obtaining the status of [Champion Holder], this first field has undergone a sudden change.

Apparently, he was not the first "victim".

After the duel between the initial number and Hong Ying, Gu Shen's understanding of physical skills improved again.

Today, he is no longer a "spiritual extraordinary person" in the secular sense.

The division into three series is just to differentiate between novices.

A truly top-notch player will have no shortcomings and will be perfect in every aspect.

"..."

Mu Wanqiu took a deep breath and felt deep pressure.

She struck again.

Only this time, she wasn't alone.

There are three huge ghosts flying in the field, and the third judge's ghost is drawn from her essence and grows out. Even if the physical skills in this world are practiced to the extreme, there will always be flaws.

The next moment, she ran into Gu Shen's melee range.

Also crashing into it at the same time were three spiritual bodies——

This time Gu Shen did not hide. He hit Mu Wanqiu's forward body with a knee. The red-armored woman raised her hands and folded them in front of her lower abdomen in time to withstand the blow, but the force was too heavy. Because of this, she was still beaten off the ground and flew upside down. Gu Shen did not take the opportunity to pursue her, not because he didn't want to.

But because you can't.

The attacks from three huge spiritual bodies have come like a tide.

[Judge] The siege after increasing the number is not a group attack of minions——

Even Gu Shen needs to deal with them one by one.

Gu Shen's method of handling it was very simple.

"Hiss!"

The pure land rappel only covers a ten-meter radius. The smaller the domain, the more powerful the domain owner can exert.

To shrink the Pure Land into such a narrow place is to wait for the approach of these judges!

Sounds of tearing through the wind and snow were heard, and Gu Shen directly chopped into pieces the bodies of the three spiritual bodies——

He does not care about the increase of these judges.

As Mu Wanqiu launched the field again.

The source of essence in his pure land was absorbed, and the number of spiritual bodies increased again, but the ending of these judges was still the same, being crushed amidst the sound of frost and snow cutting silence.

When the strength reaches a sufficient height.

In numbers, you cannot win.

This is a battle of attrition between the two realms [Pure Land] and [Judge]. [Pure Land] infinitely provides [Judge] with the source of parasitic growth, but as the master of the [Judge] domain, Mu Wanqiu must Bear the mental burden brought about by constant proliferation and differentiation.

Gu Shen stood quietly in the center of the frost and snow.

He did not take the initiative to attack Mu Wanqiu, but just watched him silently...

After being knocked to the ground by a knee strike, Mu Wanqiu held onto a boulder, her expression becoming very pale.

One is divided into two, two is divided into four, and four is divided into eight.

Under the wanton feeding of the [Pure Land], the judge's spirit body continued to multiply and then was torn apart again and again. Gu Shen even deliberately accelerated this progress.

But...she couldn't hold it anymore.

As powerful as the "god of molten iron and craftsmen", he is just in a flow state, splitting his mind into dozens of uses!

In just a few seconds, dozens of spiritual bodies have multiplied in the Judge's Domain, and the speed is still accelerating.

"Well……"

Mu Wanqiu's lips were withered and white. Her spiritual sea was instantly drained of a large part of her mental power due to the terrifying reproduction speed, and she quickly stopped in the first field.

So on the top of the mountain, there was the crisp sound of wind and snow tearing.

These [Judges] who kept falling down and standing up were all torn into pieces.

Only a spirit body was left, which was the initial realm of the First Judge. It floated back to its master very weakly and regrouped.

Mu Wanqiu felt a sting in her heart.

For a moment, she recalled the psychological shadow left by the Dolu River disaster.

It was a nightmare she didn't want to recall... The boundless River Styx, which she had to cross in a small boat, was like a withered leaf.

At the end of the upper reaches of the River Styx, the former King of Hades sat on it, like a mountain reaching the sky.

Now looking directly at Gu Shen, she felt this way in her heart.

She is a dead leaf, and he is a mountain.
