Eternal Night.

Chapter 915 Going Big

(PS: I managed to write a chapter when I had some free time, but I have to accompany and pick up the kids this afternoon, so I'm not sure if there will be a second chapter. Please stay tuned.)
Huang Rong's suggestion was absolutely groundbreaking; it wasn't just opening a window, it was blowing up the entire wall of the house.

Everyone, including Wu Pifu, the other friends, and even the three sublimated beings who wished they could become invisible, was completely stunned.

What do you mean, "walking right into a trap"?

Wu Pifu?
Heaven?

The Thirty-Three Heavens Beyond?

Are these words really okay when combined?
Upon first hearing this, one immediately wants to refute it, but once they open their mouths, everyone falls into deep thought.

Huang Rong's face showed a serious and resolute expression, which was extremely rare for this usually cheerful and smiling girl.

“Of course I don’t want Brother Ant to take risks, but Brother Ant is a man of great stature, and he is responsible for the life and death of all humankind in Gaia. Many times, he cannot retreat even one step. This kind of manly spirit cannot be erased. Although I am unwilling, I also long to follow Brother Ant and live and die together. That would be enough for me in this life.”

Wu Pifu remained silent. In the Condor Heroes novels he knew, Huang Rong had indeed done just that, and lived her life according to it. In the end, she remained devoted to Guo Jing and they both died in battle at the foot of Xiangyang.

I never expected her to treat him like this... She really is very devoted to me.

After Huang Rong finished speaking, she laughed again and said, "Back to this suggestion, there are several reasons why I suggested that Brother Ant go straight to the Thirty-Three Heavens. The first reason is that the Heavenly Court has only just awakened from its slumber and lacks authenticity. Although the intelligence we have gathered shows that the Heavenly Court has its own source of authenticity, perhaps it is a series of dream worlds under its control, or perhaps it is the humans it has raised, this takes time. So the Heavenly Court has not yet fully recovered. The Four Emperors, who are its representatives, and even the Primordial Immortals are still asleep, right?"

Indeed, this is something that not only Wu Pifu and his group can confirm, but also the three established ascendants, and even many civilizations throughout the Dream World can confirm. This is actually the process of the Heavenly Court's revival throughout history.

First, the Heavenly Court relied on the numerous dream worlds under its control to provide blood transfusions, and the numerous mortals in the "lower realms" provided reality. This was the initial reality needed for the revival. Then, the first Heavenly Emperor to be revived destroyed the real civilization of that era, obtaining a large amount of reality to revive the entire Heavenly Court.

Seeing everyone nod, Huang Rong continued, "Given this situation, the Heavenly Court is currently at its most vulnerable."

The Book Civilization Sublimation Body couldn't help but say from the side: "Madam, the Heavenly Court is not fragile at all. Putting aside its defense system, even its very existence is impeccable. It is located at the Zero-First Level, and the Thirty-Three Heavens Outer Heaven is said to have been created by a transcendent-level Great World captured by the First Immortal. How can this be considered fragile? It can even be described as a wall of despair."

Huang Rong replied earnestly, "That's right, that's what the Heavenly Court thinks too."

The three ascended beings immediately wanted to refute this, for example, by asking how to get to the Heavenly Court.

Then they looked thoughtfully at the disc in Wu Pifu's hand, an item that was clearly the key to getting to the Heavenly Court.

Huang Rong continued, "Secondly, there's strength. For others, going to the Heavenly Court means certain death, but it's different for Brother Ant. Brother Ant can be invincible below the Root and one-for-one above the Root. This means that Brother Ant won't be hindered by those small fry. Once he enters the Heavenly Court, unless the Heavenly Court's bigwigs awaken, he'll be able to enter as if there's no one there. Not to mention anything else, the damage he can cause in a short time is immeasurable. This is damage aimed at the Heavenly Court's headquarters. If we can destroy some of the cores of the Thirty-Three Heavens, then the crisis of the Gaia human civilization will be resolved immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Pifu's heart immediately fluttered, while Huang Rong continued, "Thirdly, the existence of this fish is insurmountable for us, but it might not be so for the Heavenly Court. A great reputation is never undeserved; it's impossible to overestimate the Heavenly Court's power. But what we need is precisely this dormant power of the Heavenly Court, isn't it? Think about it, that fish is insurmountable for us, and it's precisely because of Brother Pifu's power that he became bait. So what if we go to the Heavenly Court, where there are even more powerful beings and more dormant origins? Wouldn't that make the fish ecstatic? And then we could escape during the chaos?"

Finally, Huang Rong smiled and looked at Wu Pifu, saying, "Even if we are still helpless in the end, at least we won't lose out."

It's more than just not losing money.

If a few mortals could really exchange for the Heavenly Court's accumulated wealth of countless billions of years, wouldn't that be an incredible windfall?
For a moment, apart from the three ascended beings who were still trembling in fear, everyone else was tempted. Wu Pifu picked up the Dream Compass and said, "Since that's the case, then let's not delay, let's do it now..."

"Wait a moment!"

Xu Shilan and Beelzebub shouted at the same time. Xu Shilan grabbed Wu Pifu's arm, while Beelzebub flew to his face and bumped into him twice.

Wu Pifu looked at the two of them with suspicion, while Xu Shilan said with a hint of exasperation, "Seriously, is all you can think about is rushing in and killing people? Can't you listen to what others have to say for a second? This plan does have some feasibility, but the details haven't even been discussed thoroughly yet, and you already want to rush in and kill people?"

Wu Pifu scratched his head helplessly. He really wanted to say that he couldn't solve all the problems, but he was good at dealing with the people who created them. However, seeing Xu Shilan's exasperated look, he wisely refrained from saying it.

Seeing that Wu Pifu remained "obedient" and didn't continue speaking, Xu Shilan glared at him fiercely before saying to Huang Rong, "Sister Rong, your suggestion isn't impossible, but there are a few issues that need to be addressed. First, there are the Thunder Department beings that are pursuing us. According to the three of them, these Thunder Department beings will continue to track us. If they can't find the main body that killed the Celestial Master, then they will follow the law of cause and effect and directly attack the relatives and friends of the main body that killed the Celestial Master, or directly attack its civilization, right?" The three sublimated beings immediately nodded vigorously, while Huang Rong fell silent.

At this point in time, Huang Rong was still the little devil trained by the Eastern Heretic. It would be no problem for her to take care of Wu Pifu, but asking her to consider other people's lives... well, that would be a different story.

Beelzebub immediately added, "Furthermore, even if we reach the Thirty-Three Heavens, how can we ensure we can bring the fish there? We also have no idea when the fish will surface. And Wu Pifu, you only have one way to deal with the root cause, but that has a time limit, and also..."

Wu Pifu immediately said in a deep voice, "These are all minor details. The real issue is the tracking problem of the Thunder Department. Once that's resolved, we'll set off for the Heavenly Court immediately!"

Beelzebub was about to speak, but when she saw Wu Pifu's eyes, she fell silent.

That look in his eyes was undisguised, unwavering, fearless, and untroubled, just as it always had been...

Huang Rong's eyes darted around, and she suddenly smiled and said, "Actually, it's easy to solve, but in this way, Brother Ant's Dream Compass will probably be used up all its uses at this time."

Each use of the Dream Compass consumes Perfect Fate Points, and Wu Pifu doesn't even know where these points come from. He only has four points in total, and once they're used up, they can't be replenished, so the Dream Compass is essentially useless.

But these are just external possessions. No matter how precious they are, Wu Pifu wouldn't be so afraid to use them when he needed them. He simply said, "That's fine, just tell me what you want."

Huang Rong admired Wu Pifu's heroic demeanor. She happily said, "There's still a long way to go from here to Level 01. Since that's the case, I suggest that Brother Pifu appear here directly to attract the Thunder Department's attention. We should kill and clear them all out. After killing and clearing them out for a round or two, and attracting enough of their attention, we can go to the lower levels of the Dream World, but not directly to the Heavenly Court. We can attract the Thunder Department again in the lower levels of the Dream World, kill and clear them out a few more times, and then go to the Heavenly Court. This will be enough to focus the Thunder Department's attention on Brother Pifu."

Wu Pifu said thoughtfully, "So, as long as I attract all their attention, it won't affect my relatives and friends with whom I have a karmic connection, or my civilization, right?" After saying that, he looked at the three ascended beings.

The three ascended beings looked at each other and discussed in hushed tones. The Panshan Civilization ascended being immediately nodded and said, "Theoretically, that's how it is. The causal relationship must be based on you, my lord. If you are not destroyed, or if you can be tracked, the Heavenly Court's Thunder Department will not kill beings with a weaker causal relationship."

“Alright, that’s settled then, so we will…” Wu Pifu said decisively.

"Wait a moment!"

Xu Shilan and Beelzebub stopped Wu Pifu again. The two looked at each other, and Wu Pifu said with dissatisfaction, "My mind is made up. Don't stop me anymore. After I leave, you can return to Gaia."

Xu Shilan immediately retorted with displeasure, "Do you think I'm afraid of death? If you say that again, I'll get angry! Besides, we're probably being watched by the fish too. Once we leave your side, our existence will disappear!"

Beelzebub also said, "We're stopping you because we think this plan can be improved!"

Wu Pifu patiently asked, "How do we optimize it?"

Xu Shilan immediately asked the three sublimated beings, "Do you hate the Heavenly Court?"

The three ascended beings looked at each other and waved their hands repeatedly, saying, "No, no, we wouldn't dare."

“It’s not that we ‘don’t have it,’ but that we ‘dare not,’ right?” Xu Shilan immediately said, “Since we’re going to do something big, why not maximize the benefits and make it the biggest event? Wu Pifu, since I decided to team up with you, I never thought I’d survive to the end. You’re a hero, and we’re not cowards either! Let’s make it spectacular!”

Wu Pifu asked curiously, "How do we maximize profits? How do we maximize the impact of events?"

Xu Shilan looked at the three ascended beings and said, "I want you to spread this message, to as many ascended beings as possible, to as many dream world civilizations as possible, and to as many areas as possible!"

"The true civilization of Gaia in this era is coveted by the Heavenly Court. Wu Pifu, one of the three pillars of Gaia, was attacked by a Heavenly Master while traveling in the Dream World. Although he fought back and killed the attacker, Wu Pifu was also enraged. After killing the Heavenly Court's Thunder Department soldiers who came to pursue him, he resolutely went alone to the Heavenly Court..."

"We vow to fight back against the tyrannical and ruthless Heavenly Court, one man and one sword!"
