Then let them offer their loyalty!

She said, "If I'm not mistaken, the 'Isolation Mountain Range' will completely collapse within a week at most."

The collapse of the "Isolation Mountain Range" is a major event, and could even be considered the biggest turning point in the "Trial of the Gods".

After all, once the "isolation mountain range" collapses, the "edge area" will become the "core area," the two areas will be connected, and reinforcements from all sides will arrive directly.

This is not a good thing for either the human camp or for the weak and isolated Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji.

Because the advantages they have painstakingly accumulated could be diluted in a very short time by the accumulation of other forces over hundreds of years.

This will also cause their win rate to plummet.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ask, "Why is it collapsing so quickly? Did something happen?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qing Lan nodded slightly.

She said, "It's a Kabane."

"Kabane?" Qiu Tu repeated the name. Then he remembered that this was a quasi-god-level expert ranked second in the "Trial of the Gods".

He is also one of the people with the highest probability of winning this "Trial of the Gods".

Qiu Tu remembered this quasi-god as being greedy for money and lustful, and especially fond of abusing women in certain situations.

Every year, at least eighty to one hundred women die at his hands. And the ways they die are all bizarre.

It is said that since arriving at the "Trial of the Gods," he has been indulging in pleasure wherever he goes. He can be described as a lecherous fiend.

After reviewing the Kabane's information, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ask, "What happened to him? What does he have to do with the collapse of the 'Isolation Mountains'?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qing Lan explained, "The Kabane have been researching and trying to conquer the 'Puppet Insects' all this time, but with little success."

"Not long ago, you subdued tens of thousands of 'Puppet Insects' in the name of 'True God'."

"After he found out, he followed suit and came to the 'Puppet Insect' tribe, then shouted, 'Since you have seen the true god, why don't you worship him?'"

"As a result... he was insulted by the 'Puppet Worm,' who called him an 'idiot.' The scene was extremely awkward, making him a laughingstock in the 'Southeast Region.'"

At this point, Qinglan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Enraged, he single-handedly crushed three 'Puppet Insect Tribes.' However, this also consumed a significant amount of Cataclysmic Power."

"He's a rough and unrefined person, not good at careful planning. Now that he's realized the power of the cataclysm is insufficient, he's too lazy to continue observing and waiting according to the original plan."

"So he directly contacted some forces with whom he had good relations, preparing to open the 'Isolated Mountains' ahead of schedule and advance the 'Trial of the Gods' to the next stage."

"In this way, these major powers will have absolute initiative, and their chances of winning will be almost 100%."

Chapter 662 Madam, You Have No Choice (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Upon hearing Qinglan's words, Qiu Tu frowned slightly.

He didn't care that the Kabane were copying him. Because... it was a trap he had set in the first place.

He stepped forward himself to confuse the other "Trialists of the Gods" and make them wonder how he subdued the "Puppet Insect".

Therefore, it was entirely within his expectations that some people would follow suit.

However, he did not expect the other party to react so strongly, actually intending to demolish the "isolation mountain range".

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but ask, "Has the 'Isolation Mountain Range' become this fragile?"

Qiu Tu thought for a moment, then added, "I remember a little over a month ago, when the 'Trial of the Gods' first started, the 'Isolated Mountains' were still very sturdy, right?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qing Lan nodded solemnly, "Yes."

"At the very beginning of the 'Trial of the Gods,' the 'Isolated Mountains' were extremely sturdy."

"At the time, three forces joined together to try and push down the 'Isolation Mountains' from the inside out, but they found it effective, though it required an enormous amount of power."

"To avoid letting other forces reap the benefits, they eventually abandoned the plan."

"However, the situation at the 'Isolated Mountains' has deteriorated rapidly over the past month."

"There may be far too many eighth-tier deities arriving in the 'Frontier Region.' Even though these deities are trying their best to avoid using abilities exceeding the 'Region's Capacity Limit,' the accumulated amount over the past month is still enormous."

At this point, Qinglan paused, then added, "Actually, we noticed a change when you advanced to the eighth rank half a month ago."

She said, "At that time, the Heavenly King of Weaving Flame also said that 'world perception' had already been established. This in itself represents the merging of the two major regions." (Chapter 643)

Qiu Tu nodded slightly upon hearing this.

The "World Sensing" event itself was a landmark event. It now appears that since then, the entire "periphery" has begun to rapidly merge with the "core area."

Now, it is very likely that a critical point has been reached again, which is why the Kabane want to demolish the "Isolation Mountains" once again.

Thinking this way, Qiu Tu felt more at ease. It seemed that regardless of whether the Kabane pushed down the "Isolation Mountain Range," the fusion of the two domains would come soon.

Although this happened much faster than he had anticipated, he could only respond to the situation as it came.

Fortunately... he still had the "Siyuan Society" as a trump card. Perhaps... the collapse of the "Isolation Mountain Range" wasn't such a bad thing for him after all.

With that thought in mind, Qiu Tu stopped hesitating, and a smile bloomed on his handsome face once again.

He put his arm around Qinglan's shoulder and said, "It's okay. It's nothing. Let them push it away if they want. We just need to do our job."

Perhaps because she had never been so close to Qiu Tu before, Qinglan struggled to break free a couple of times, feeling a little uncomfortable.

But Qiu Tu is now on the same level as her, and is no longer the little shrimp she used to be able to manipulate at will.

So, after struggling a couple of times, she realized it was useless. So she couldn't help but glare at Qiu Tu.

Qiu Tu seemed not to understand Qing Lan's meaning, so he looked down at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qinglan was put on the shoulder by Qiu Tu, who then warned, "I'm not one of your women. Don't even think about it."

I'm not interested in you.

Upon hearing Qinglan's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but smile.

He said, "Qinglan, you've misunderstood. I'm not interested in you either. We're just like-minded comrades-in-arms."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qing Lan looked at him suspiciously, "You'd better do that."

After saying that, Qinglan muttered and complained to herself in her heart.

'That bastard... when he was trying to fool me, he said he'd give me the 'divine status'.'

'As it turns out, he's already reached level eight in such a short time. He'll most likely have to break his promise.'

'I've already lost a lot; if I get hurt again, I'll be completely ruined.'

"Just keep running the company; don't become a shareholder!"

This evil god who hates his job is clearly a person with a clear head.

After discussing the intelligence, the two went about their own business.

The division of labor among the group was clear.

Qiu Tu oversees the overall situation and strives to improve their group's chances of winning; Zhao Ji works hard to improve her strength and quickly raise her actual combat power to the top 5 of the "Trial of the Gods" list.

Qinglan is in charge of intelligence and uses the "Mist Hidden Society's" intelligence system to obtain information on all aspects of the "Trial of the Gods".

As for... Candle Dance, she just ate and drank and was happy.

At most, he would occasionally "transfer" some of his strength to Shen Lingshuang.

During this time, with the help of her "twin" Zhu Wu, Shen Ling Shuang's "spiritual cluster" grew larger and larger, and her strength increased rapidly.

In just two months, his strength has advanced to the fourth rank, and it is still improving rapidly.

Based on the experiment conducted in "Azure Divine Realm - Three Capitals City", this improvement may continue until the two are close in strength.

Therefore, to some extent, Shen Lingshuang's potential has already been fully realized.

Thinking this, Qiu Tu returned to his residence.

At this moment, in the dwelling, the phantom of Shuxia was looking down at a human's book.

In the past two days, besides protecting Tang Feifei's advancement, Qiu Tu's most important task has been to brainwash Shu Xia.

Having lived two lives, Qiu Tu is quite adept at brainwashing. Moreover, he is no longer alone, but the supreme leader of the "Three Great Sanctuaries of the Northwest," commanding countless elite troops.

So, under the intense brainwashing of these experts, Shu Xia is now 100% certain that Qiu Tu is his savior.

The original incident was rewritten as follows: "The members of Siyuan Pavilion clashed with the Wuyin Society. Tianqi, the leader of the Wuyin Society, attacked Siyuan Pavilion, which resulted in the deaths of Shuxia's father and brother, and the disappearance of his sister-in-law."

Although Shuxia had some doubts about Qiu Tu's explanation, she accepted it because it was the truth told by her "lifesaver".

So, in the past few days, Qiu Tu has also started showing him some short videos and materials about the heinous crimes of the "Mist Shadow Society," and then showing him some human books.

Now, Shu Natsumi is clearly increasingly identifying with human values ​​and is becoming more and more resistant to the "Hidden Mist Society".

This is evident from his ever-increasing level of loyalty.

"Katsuna's loyalty: 65"

A significant number. Especially considering that this was achieved in just a few days, the sheer power of this brainwashing is even more evident.

However, Qiu Tu was not there to see Shu Xia.

After greeting Shuxia downstairs, Qiu Tong went straight up to the second floor.

Arriving at a corner on the second floor, Qiu Tu knocked on the wall a few times.

The next second, the wall slowly opened, and Qiu Tu walked in.

Inside the wall was a secret room.

Despite being called a secret room, it's actually quite spacious, over 100 square meters. It includes a bedroom, bathroom, living room, and dining room.

The furnishings were exquisite and elegant. Marble floors, pure white cashmere carpets, luxurious chandeliers, and... a large bed that was wide enough for four people.

More importantly... the east side of that secret room was a huge floor-to-ceiling window.

However, the view outside that floor-to-ceiling window wasn't a scenic view, but rather the villa's living room.

Even more astonishingly, when looking up from the living room, the mirror is not visible; only a wall is seen. Clearly, this is a giant one-way mirror specially treated with a Cataclysmic Artifact.

At this moment, Manhuang, the deputy head of Siyuan Pavilion, was standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at Shuxia with a complicated expression in his eyes.

"How did you rest last night, Master?"

Upon entering the secret chamber, Qiu Tu stopped and, looking at Manhuang's back, politely greeted her.

But Manhuang clearly didn't want to pay attention to Qiu Tu, so she stood there without saying a word, not even turning her body.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu smiled, not caring much. He had many ways to get the Emperor to pay attention to him.

Thinking this, he raised his hand, and instantly, a semi-transparent "small seal" appeared in his palm. This was clearly the "Imprisoning Heaven Seal" of the Man Emperor that he had obtained from Zhao Ji.

Holding the "small seal" in his hand, Qiu Tu looked at Manhuang and a thought crossed his mind.

The next second, the previously calm and composed Empress Man's expression suddenly changed, and her body trembled violently. Then, her long legs clamped tightly together, and she almost lost her balance.

She seemed to have suffered a major blow, clutching her chest, biting her lip, and remained in shock for a long time.

Two seconds passed before she calmed down slightly, then suddenly turned her head and glared at Qiu Tu, "You pervert!"

What did you do to me?!

Hearing Manhuang's words, Qiu Tu's smile widened. The Imprisoning Heaven Seal was indeed quite fun.

Thinking this, he toyed with the small seal in his hand and casually explained, "The 'Imprisoning Heaven Seal' is a very special 'quasi-divine skill.' It's something that restricts your strength and controls your lifeline."

At this point, Qiu Tu paused for a moment, then said, "Of course... it also has some strange additional effects."

"For example, it can directly control your body, punish you directly, and make you unable to control yourself, etc."

"It seems... to be working well?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Manhuang's beautiful face was filled with shame and anger. She gritted her teeth and glared at Qiu Tu, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her long, dark green curly hair swayed gently like the dark green tide before a storm.

"Shameless scoundrel! Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu smiled and said, "Madam, could you please use a different word? I'm tired of hearing this one."

At this point, Qiu Tu paused for a moment, then asked in return, "And... why am I a villain? Why should I suffer retribution?"

"The reason you fell into our hands is because your 'Siyuan Pavilion' plotted against us first, launching a sneak attack during our crucial period of promotion, isn't it?"

"You were the ones who started this whole thing. So why are you acting like victims now that you're in our hands?"

"Don't you think what you're doing is like wanting to work in both the service and construction industries?"

Manhuang clearly didn't understand some human slang, so when she heard Qiu Tu's roundabout words, she was a little confused for a moment.
