In the eyes of the Drunken Sword Immortal, the human race in the fox demon world had embarked on an absolutely wrong path. However, in the end, the Drunken Sword Immortal shook his head.
Tu Shan Honghong joined the council, so he had no intention of making corrections. If problems arise in the Fox Spirit World in the future, and he happens to be involved... perhaps he will choose to stay in that world after completing his mission and thus solve these problems.
“Speaking of powerful magical artifacts, I suddenly thought of Dongfang Yuechu! This guy doesn’t seem to have any magical artifacts, but he can still fight Wang Quan Fugui to a standstill?” Sakata Gintoki rubbed his chin.
"You've forgotten about the Eastern Divine Fire, a unique flame specifically designed to subdue demons! Perhaps it's another kind of magical artifact? Wait a minute." Kaguya Houraisan paused, as if she had thought of something, and looked at Kou Xun'er with a strange expression.
"The Demon-Slaying Divine Fire is quite a good flame! If it were in my world, it might even be ranked among the top strange flames." Gu Xun'er's voice was as calm as ever.
Of course, it's only ranked on the leaderboard; it probably won't even crack the top twenty. After all, the levels of both worlds are ranked here... According to Gu Xun'er's judgment, even the third leader of Aolai Kingdom at his peak wouldn't be comparable to a Dou Sheng realm being in her world.
"So, did Miss Gu get what she wanted?" Number Ten suddenly spoke up, and under Su Han's control, he made a gesture as if looking at Gu Xun'er.
Gu Xun'er exchanged a glance with Number Ten, feeling the mist beside her tremble violently, and a faint throbbing pain in her head. She immediately turned her head away. She hadn't forgotten that Number Ten in the mist space was suspected to be the true form of an evil god.
If it weren't for the fog, she probably would have gone mad and died after seeing it, right?
Despite her inner turmoil, Gu Xun'er maintained her haughty demeanor, speaking in a calm and gentle voice, "Yes. I have reached an agreement with Xiao Yan, and he has given me that ring! In return, I have provided his family with protection and enough resources to cultivate five Dou Zong."
“Yes, I have already met with Elder Yao!” Gu Xun’er stretched out her palm, freeing it from the veil of mist. On her finger was an ancient-looking ring. “Of course, Elder Yao cannot appear in the misty space.”
"However, I entered the Moon of Cultivation before, and there... he could appear."
"By the way, I've already become his apprentice! And with the council's help, I've successfully become an alchemist... I'm currently at around rank seven. If anyone needs to refine any pills in the future, feel free to come and trade with me."
"...Rank 7? A medicine that works even for Dou Zong?" Xiaoyu gasped, her expression suddenly becoming excited. "Me! Me! Me! I'm at the peak of Dou Huang now, and I feel like I can try to break through to Dou Zong. Can you get me a Breakthrough Pill?"
"As for what you want..." Xiaoyu gently scratched her cheek with her fingers, somewhat embarrassed, "Just tell me directly. Anyway, you've seen the stars of my world, so you know what my world is really like?"
“…Alright.” Gu Xun’er glanced at Xiao Yu with a hint of helplessness, but knew that Xiao Yu couldn’t offer her any useful help. So she didn’t intend to ask for any valuable items.
"Your strength is improving so fast... it's really amazing." Asuna Yuuki looked at Kotama Kaoru and exclaimed, "You're still so young."
"If this pace continues... by the time the Dou Qi Stars begin to emerge, Gu Xun'er's strength will probably have already broken through to the Dou Sheng realm, right?"
“She’ll probably be at the peak of the Dou Sheng realm! She might even break through to Dou Di with the help of the Evil God.” Houraisan Kaguya rolled her eyes, then suddenly remembered something and her eyes lit up. “However, Gu Xun’er’s experience… she’s clearly a carbon copy of the Flame Emperor.”
"I've always been curious, Miss Gu, you probably don't have a reason to become Yao Lao's disciple, right?" Conan suddenly spoke up, looking at Gu Xun'er thoughtfully. "After all, your situation is quite different from Xiao Yan's."
As the young master of an ancient clan, and with the enhancement of the evil god's power, she possesses bloodline power surpassing even the divine level. It would be most appropriate for her to directly become the disciple of her father, Gu Yuan, a peak Dou Sheng.
Even a peak Dou Zun like Yao Lao wouldn't rank in the top 100 among the ancient clans.
"I did have the idea of experimenting with taking the protagonist's path to see if it would be beneficial. However, since I've become his apprentice, I'm doing so sincerely, after all, he has indeed taught me a lot."
Gu Xun'er's voice was sincere, "Moreover, I have already killed Yao Lao's traitorous disciple and even promised to help him reshape his body. However, due to various reasons, Yao Lao is currently declining and is considering it."
"Amazing!" Tony Stark clapped. He was also considering whether he should talk to Gu Xun'er later. Perhaps he could find out the true essence of alchemy and, back in his world, see if he could create an industrialized assembly line for producing pills?

"If we could pull this off, that would be truly amazing," Tony Stark clicked his tongue. At that point, if he wanted, he could quickly cultivate a group of powerful individuals who had risen through the ranks using drugs.
After a brief silence, Bruce Wayne looked at Rick and asked in a low, husky voice, "After you've seen the stars of your own world, what are your thoughts?"
“What I’m thinking is that a life of emptiness and blankness is truly something to look forward to,” Rick said softly.
“Blank has never lost, and Rikushige has never won!” Saeko Busujima murmured. “The strong hone their claws, and the weak hone their wisdom.”
Taking a deep breath, Saeko Busujima calmed herself down, but she gripped the katana at her waist even tighter.
"Speaking of which, I suddenly thought of Mr. Conan." Sawada Tsunayoshi looked in Conan's direction, his voice carrying a strange emotion.
"Huh?" Conan was stunned for a moment, then his lips twitched after he realized what he meant. "You mean, my strength isn't enough! That's why I'm honing my intelligence?"
"That was true before I joined the council, but it's not appropriate to compare that to who I am now. And according to that logic, wouldn't Aizen be crying?"
Feng Yuan thought about it and agreed. He then turned his gaze to Aizen. Aizen was undoubtedly a unique being who possessed both power and wisdom.
Aizen simply smiled and did not respond.
"Ha, I thought! The future that Riku sacrificed countless times for would be so glorious for humanity. In the end, we're still at a complete disadvantage." Accelerator suddenly spoke. His eyes flashed with a cold light as he sneered.
"That so-called God of Games, Tet, clearly ascended to that position because of Rick... but towards humans, he still maintained that impartial and unbiased attitude."
"It's ridiculous... This kind of fairness is actually the greatest injustice."
Rick didn't speak; he lowered his head. In truth, he had similar thoughts to some extent.
After thinking for a moment, Accelerator turned to Rick and said, "Rick, why don't you just give the Star Grail to the Council Chairman when you finally obtain it? I think that would be much more worthwhile than giving it to that so-called Tet."
Webber stood there stunned, but after careful consideration, he looked at Rick with a strange expression. He felt that Accelerator's words made sense, and immediately became curious about Rick's final choice.
“Perhaps the future will be like that.” Rick didn’t give a direct answer. His gaze was somewhat deep, clearly still pondering the events of his previous life of games, his heart unable to find peace. He sighed softly, “Ultimately, the Star Cup still holds too many mysteries!”
"For example, I was unable to lift the Star Cup in the end... I read it several times and still couldn't figure it out. Was it because I wasn't a god, or because I couldn't control the spirits... or for some other reason?"
“I am not qualified to give away that cup until I have truly figured these things out and am sure that I can hold that cup.”
At this point, Rick gave Su Han a deep look. He knew the Speaker should know this information, but the Speaker hadn't manifested in the stars before... Rick opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, then sighed and didn't ask.
Since the Speaker of the Council hadn't mentioned it before, he must have had his own reasons... It was with this in mind that Rick forcibly suppressed his doubts.
"Rick is truly cautious to the extreme," Su Han glanced at Rick and silently remarked. This was actually quite normal; Rick had developed a habit in his world of not allowing himself to make any mistakes…
After all, for him, any mistake could lead to utter destruction.
