Barrier of Light

This fight is actually very important to Gu Shen.

After condensing his mental power, he was also curious about what level his strength was at.

Shen Li is really a good opponent.

The little iron man won't be tricked when he fights, just like his big sword, which goes straight forward and moves forward in an indomitable way.

To deal with such a fierce and powerful extraordinary person, Gu Shen has a hundred ways to win. After all... even without the "blazing fire", he still has many treasures on his body.

The nameless iron armor, the spiritual finger, the ruler of truth, including the ghost veil that I just took into my hand...

These objects are among the best battle treasures and can work wonders at critical moments.

Using Shen Li as a mirror, Gu Shen saw his current "insufficiencies".

In a real fight between fists and kicks, he would probably only be able to fight at a 50-50 draw with the power-attacking supernatural beings in the same realm.

As for Bai Xiu, who is in the same realm, he should be able to cause crushing without relying on [Thunder World Walker].

"Brother Gu..."

Shen Li rubbed his head and sat up with a grin on his face.

He smiled bitterly and said: "Why do I feel that you have become weaker? Is it my illusion?"

This guy's fighting instincts are still very strong.

Gu Shen smiled and shook his head, and said seriously: "No, actually you have become stronger."

These are not words of comfort.

[Iron Eater] is an ability with an extremely ferocious nature. This type of ability often causes the extraordinary person's mental power to lag behind his own quality level in the third stage.

In other words...the more physically powerful one is, the more likely it is to cause "mental loss of control".

And Shen Li's current spirit is extremely stable.

In this regard, it is already considered one of the "strongest" among its kind!

Any extraordinary practice must be based on "mental stability"... Otherwise, even if you practice to become the King of Hades, so what, it will still be in vain in the end.

The "Big Que" given by Mr. Shan is a sealed object that perfectly matches the "Iron Eater".

For top-level sealed objects, the more stable the "spirit" is, the stronger the power the sealed object can display!

This thing that fits perfectly... Shen Li still has a lot of room for development in his hands, but now that he has just obtained this thing, he hasn't had time to develop it yet.

"This sword...is not simple."

Gu Shen handed the big palace back again and said with a smile: "I think after you fully master the big palace, you don't need to challenge me..."

"Ah?" Shen Li took the sword and was slightly startled.

"Go challenge Gong Zi!"

Gu Shen said seriously: "Believe me, at that time, you will have a chance to knock this guy down... Isn't it nice to think about being able to beat Gong Zi in the name of sparring?"

"...Tsk, tsk."

Little Iron Man is already imagining the scene of stepping on Gong Zi.

"By the way, Brother Gu..."

Shen Li quickly shook his head.

He remembered something important and asked solemnly: "Do you know why Mr. Shan thinks so highly of me?"

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows.

Naturally, he pretended not to know, played with the keys to the mansion in his palm, and said lightly: "Huh?"

"It's because... Hades..."

When Shen Li said this, he lowered his voice.

He looked at Gu Shen, wondering if it was a psychological effect. Even though he was communicating mentally, he still felt that when he said the word Pluto, there was a faint chill in his back.

It is said that the throne of God is in the cemetery?

Could it be that you can even hear the voice of your heart?

No matter what... after careful consideration, Little Iron Man added the two-word suffix of "extreme respect".

"……grown ups."

A faint smile flashed across Gu Shen's eyes.

Cough slightly.

Gu Shen calmed his expression and asked with curiosity in his heart: "Pluto?"

"Don't call me by my first name! Something big will happen!"

Shen Li became a little anxious and quickly glared: "I need to add two suffixes... It is said that Pluto holds a grudge!"

"..."

Gu Shen's smile was a little stiff.

"My teacher told me..." Shen Li felt guilty and said, "A few days ago, at the funeral, it was Lord Pluto who left a trace of his spiritual thoughts... Mr. Shan favored me."

Gu Shen had already guessed it.

On that day, the other inquisitors did not notice the fluctuations of the fire spirit... but Shen Li's teacher, the fourth inquisitor, had a very keen mental power and should have caught the source of the strangeness.

Guessing it is nothing.

Gu Shen still hopes to be guessed... the more people can guess, the better.

"Isn't this a good thing?" he asked with a smile.

"Well... what a fart!"

Shen Li gritted his teeth, his face turned red, and said: "Teacher and Mr. Shan, now they both think that I am the 'Apostle of Pluto'. They are giving away the house and the sealed artifact, so I have to accept it, but in fact, I have never even seen the face of Pluto... How do I know what kind of fart he is holding in his crotch?"

Gu Shen's expression was subtle.

"I can't tell anyone else these words... If Mr. Shan finds out, I'll be doomed!"

Shen Li sighed happily, and then breathed a long sigh of relief.

no matter what--

This secret was finally told to the most trustworthy person.

Brother Gu has great supernatural powers, maybe he can help think of a solution.

He looked at Gu Shen nervously and apprehensively.

What he saw was a pair of smiling eyes reflecting the blazing fire.

This look... is a bit strange.

Every time he wanted to bet something with Brother Gu, Brother Gu would look at him like this.

"Do you still remember...you were unconscious for a while in the cemetery?"

Gu Shen spoke slowly.

Shen Li was startled, then nodded slowly: "Of course I remember... I met Miss Chu and blocked a blow..."

Then, he passed out.

When I woke up, the battle of Qing Tombs came to an end.

He may be the first transcendent person in history to fall asleep and watch the battle between gods.

"Is there a possibility that Pluto has already seen you..."

Gu Shen said softly: "Just when you were unconscious?"

"You mean..."

Shen Li took a breath, his eyes brightened, and he looked at Gu Shen in surprise. If I remember correctly, Brother Gu was also the lucky one to witness the entire battle between gods.

"I am indeed the 'Apostle of Hades'...but I passed out, so I don't know?"

The little iron man touched his body.

He muttered in a low voice: "That's not right, there are tokens, badges, nothing... Lord Pluto can't be so stingy, can he?"

"..."

Gu Shen was silent.

"Being an 'apostle' is not as simple as you think... Within the five continents, every apostle of the throne needs to go through many tests." Gu Shen sighed softly and asked, "What have you done? , what else did you do?”

"……Too."

Shen Li coughed shyly.

Immediately afterwards.

He realized something was wrong.

"Wait...Brother Gu, how do you know about Pluto?" Shen Li rarely became wise for a moment.

Pluto summoned him, whether it was a spiritual summons or a selection using other methods... Gu Shen shouldn't know about it.

Gu Shen had already prepared for this issue.

He smiled and pointed a finger at his head.

"Great cleverness, we are almost close to the truth, think again."

Shen Li gritted his teeth and racked his brains.

Someone who can know the news about the throne of God...and knows the inside story of the "apostle"...

An idea came to my mind.

The little iron man suddenly realized it and said with emotion: "Brother Gu...it turns out you..."

"Also an 'Apostle of Hades'?"

Gu Shen silently gave a thumbs up, and then signaled Shen Li to be silent.

"Although we don't have heraldry or tokens, we can't be considered true 'apostles.'" Gu Shen said with a solemn expression, "But the news about Pluto's selection of envoys must be kept secret."

Shen Li nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

No wonder... after that day, the more he looked at Gu Shen, the more friendly and pleasing he felt.

Is it because they are both “candidates for apostles”?

"As for the test...does Brother Gu know about it?"

Shen Li blinked and asked.

Gu Shen shook his head and said meaningfully: "It's not that simple... Do you know why Mr. Shan gave you the 'Big Que' and why he gave you that house?"

Shen Li held his breath and listened carefully.

"Twenty years ago, the news of Pluto's death spread back to the Five Continents. Mr. Shan led people to evacuate Pluto's mansion in the Snow Forbidden City..."

Gu Shen briefly recounted the disagreements between the two parties twenty years ago.

After listening, Shen Li truly understood.

No wonder……

No wonder!

Shen Li always felt that when Mr. Shan looked at him when he presented the palace to him, the look in his eyes was 50% sincere apology, 40% fear and horror, and only 10% appreciation for his talent.

"As far as I know, your first test is not difficult. In that mansion, there is the 'black silver' left by Mr. Shan, as well as some common objects. Just take out these things and bring them back to the cemetery. It’s complete.”

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Now that things have happened, do you still think this key is not important?"

Shen Li looked complicated.

He suddenly regretted that he had so carelessly handed the key to Gu Shen as before in his original bet.

"This thing... is returned to you."

There was a crisp sound.

The key to the mansion was thrown out, and Shen Li held it in both hands, looking a little at a loss.

Why... gave it back to me?

Gu Shen said sternly: "The 'bet' about the key is also a part of the test. You shouldn't have handed it over to me so easily... He who doesn't know is not guilty. In the future, you still need to be cautious about Pluto's objects. For safekeeping.”

Shen Li's expression was extremely complicated.

His brain was not bright to begin with.

After listening to such a long story about Pluto's secrets, now he just feels that he is a completely lucky person.

"Brother Gu..."

The little iron man said sincerely: "I can't say thank you enough! I thank you!"

…

…

"In the original plan... the step of going to the mansion to get the black silver can be omitted."

After Shen Li left.

Gu Shen stood alone on the top of the cemetery hill, blowing the cool mountain breeze.

He watched the little iron man running away from the cemetery, getting further and further away, until he disappeared... I have to say that he had a very strange feeling in his heart.

"Is Shen Li lucky or unlucky to know you?"

Chu Ling asked this question seriously within a few seconds.

Although it sounds very sarcastic.

But Gu Shen smiled.

"Actually, I didn't think that much at the beginning. I just wanted to use the name of 'Pluto' to beat the prison and make Mr. Shan treat Shen Li better." Gu Shen looked at Tianyun who was relaxing and said softly: "It's just that letting Shen Li become an 'apostle' doesn't seem to be a bad choice. For him, having a backer is better than nothing."

"It's just...it will take a long time for him to get the real 'Apostle's Crest'." Gu Shen asked: "It shouldn't be too much to let him run errands and fight for me for such an apostle status, right? ?”

"If there is such an opportunity, 99.999% of people will break their heads trying to get it."

Chu Ling said lightly: "But for some reason, I feel sorry for him."

Maybe it's because Shen Li's innocent look... is too innocent.

He was completely kept in the dark.

"Will you always live with Pluto as an apostle of Pluto from now on?" Chu Ling asked: "Let the world know that a person is connected to Pluto... is not a good thing."

This sentence sounds even more sarcastic.

Because Gu Shen himself is the King of Hades.

"Don't worry, I thought of an 'escape plan' before I opened my mouth."

Gu Shen said calmly: "Shen Li knows that I am a candidate for apostle like him, but... being a candidate does not mean that I will be able to become an apostle. When I no longer need this identity, I will be eliminated by Hades. I believe Shen Li, he will not take the initiative to tell the news about me, and even if the news about the Pluto candidate is exposed, it will not have an impact on me."

As long as you don't go to the City of Light and don't come into contact with the God of Light... then no one can expose your connection with Pluto's fire.

And what the rumored Pluto said, did, and planned.

But it’s all a matter of one sentence.

The good thing was done by Gu Shen.

All bad things should be blamed on Pluto.

Not long after.

Shen Li rushed back to the cemetery with the black silver in the mansion. Gu Shen returned to the inner mausoleum. With the weak guidance of Pluto's fire, he summoned black clouds and let Shen Li enter the mausoleum. Then Chu Ling opened up the fog and led the He placed the black silver on the top of a hill.

There is no need to wait for the "Dou Zhan Divine Realm" to cover the Snow Forbidden City.

Things are already in hand.

After completing the mission, Shen Li was still waiting stupidly for the meeting with Lord Pluto...

only.

Lord Hades didn't seem to want to meet, so the mist closed and sent him out again.

The little iron man wanted to know if his first test was over.

As for the second test...when will we have to wait?

it is more than words.

In the thick fog, he felt as if Master Pluto had said a word to him.

Enlightenment.

Or...get out.

So Shen Li entered the mausoleum with a blank look on his face and came out of the mausoleum with a confused face.

Gu Shen stood on the top of the mountain, carrying the sealed black silver box, and did not show up again, just watching Shen Li leave the cemetery in silence.

It can be seen with the naked eye that when walking, the little iron man's back straightened a little... This should be regarded as the confidence given by "Pluto", right?

Um……

Let alone let him know the truth.

Gu Shen opened the box and found jars of sealed black silver lying in the box. This is the highest quality "mithril" currently known and controllable in Wuzhou, and it is also the most powerful containment material.

He ran his fingers over the surface of the jar and smiled.

"Fooling."

Chu Ling, who had been silent for a long time, held back such a word.

It is very vivid to describe Gu Shen at this moment.

Gu Shen smiled and said: "Although it's shameful to cheat... but it's really useful."
