Collapse Iron Live Broadcast Connects All Worlds, Scares Away Wuzhan at the Beginning

Lu Mingfei turned his head to the other side of the sofa.

On another bed not far away, Eri was sleeping soundly. The curtains were not drawn, and the moonlight shone on her soft forehead. Her sleeping posture was quite standard, with the quilt covering her chest, revealing only a delicate little face. Her long eyelashes cast two shadows on her face.

"You are a wanted criminal skilled in using the art of words to confuse people. I have no interest in what you have to say," Fu Xuan said calmly. "You may say whatever you wish, but I will only trust the predictions of the Qiongguan Formation."

"The Taibushi has his own way of digging out the truth from you, far more than words can express."

Kafka simply smiled softly and said, "Then I'll ask the fortune teller to witness my fate."

Fu Xuan nodded to Xing and the others, then began to observe the operation of the formation. She formed seals with her hands in front of her chest, and suddenly a purple light burst out from her chest: "Rise!"

"Three array bases glowed, and Kafka slowly floated into the air."

"Under the operation of the Qiongguan Formation, surging information began to converge and deduce... Kafka's eyes also showed two blue lights. As the deduction and divination deepened, the corners of her mouth gradually began to rise."

"And on the other side, Fu Xuan's ritual disappeared with a ding, and the light of the eye on her forehead was completely extinguished."

"After the deduction of the Qiongguan Formation was completed, the girl, upon learning the truth, was horrified: "You... just did this?! For something like this?"

Kafka kept smiling: "How is it? Do you like this truth?"

"It's unbelievable... But the Qiongguan Formation can't be wrong." Fu Xuan looked at her as if she were a madman.

"So, what did you see? Are you going to trick us again?" Xing asked.

"Kafka has nothing to do with the star core, but you guys..." Fu Xuan looked at the three members of the train crew one by one, his eyes extremely complicated. "It turned out to be you guys... Ha, ridiculous! How could such a thing happen..."

The world of Akame ga Kill.

"This fortune teller is trying to play tricks on the train crew. Why doesn't he make himself clear?" Marin asked curiously.

"I'm afraid it's quite difficult to explain... but based on Fu Xuan's few words, it's clear that the so-called 'stellar core crisis' is just a foil to the heroic train crew."

Nadezhda shook her head. Compared to Fu Xuan's riddle-man behavior, what interested her most was the Qiongguan formation under Taibu's feet.

"Using vast amounts of intelligence data to deduce an absolutely accurate future..."

"It's a bit similar to 'Five Visions All-Powerful'." Akame said on the side. She once killed an imperial tool user in the imperial capital, known as "Decapitation Zanke". The imperial tool he used had the ability to see the future.

"Comparatively, the Five Visions Omnipotence can only see a very short period of the future, and at best, it can only be used on the spot in battle."

"The Qiongguan Formation can observe a future far beyond the Five Visions. If Zanke possessed the same foresight as the Qiongguan Formation, he would know the outcome of a battle with you in advance and then go into hiding. This is called 'seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster'—and this is the effect the Revolutionary Army values."

Nadezhda lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. "I'm also curious about their technique called 'divination'—it seems to be a skill that ordinary people can master. Once they learn it, anyone can predict future trends and situations."

"Although we don't have the opportunity to receive personal guidance from Master Boshi, if we can learn even a little bit of technology from the people of Xianzhou, it will be of great help to our future revolution."

"You're not a riddle man, are you?" Xing was also confused. You've been talking for a long time, but it's like saying nothing."

"You can ask her yourselves, taking as long as you like. I must report to the general immediately, so I'm sorry I won't stay with you!" Fu Xuan said this before turning and leaving in a hurry. It was obvious that the information she had just obtained was quite important."

"..." Walter turned to look at Xing: "Xing, go ahead and ask. I know you still have a lot of questions that you'd like to ask Kafka."

"But you have to be careful!" Sanyueqi beside him quickly interrupted and warned, "Don't be fooled by the mature big sister again~"

Chapter 114: Predicting the future? Doctor Strange says I know it all too well

“Hi, Xing.” Kafka’s smile softened as she saw her approach. “…You haven’t changed much. I’m so sorry to have you see me in such a state.”

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Xing looked at her worriedly.

“Are you concerned about me?”

Kafka was slightly startled, a warm feeling rising in her heart. "I'm fine. Xianzhou is always polite to prisoners. I didn't speak to you on the train because I knew you would talk to me alone here. So I thought, why not save everything for now? You seem to have a lot of things you want to ask me."

"What did Fu Xuan see?"

"The Celestial Ship's Star Core Chaos wasn't directly linked to us. But if you look at it from Elio's perspective, the Star Core Hunters aren't innocent. We foresaw this, but remained indifferent until the right moment to intervene."

Kafka calmly continued to explain, "The reason Fu Taibu was so surprised was because she discovered three facts."

"First, the Star Core Hunters are not the Immortal Boat's enemies. You already know this, even though you still don't believe it."

"Secondly, someone else brought the star core aboard the Immortal Boat and activated it. This is due to both internal and external threats. Traitors within Luofu and enemies outside are trying to overthrow the Immortal Boat. The Grand Astrologer must have rushed to the General to inform him of this."

"But that's all the information the Grand Astrologer knows, because Elio hasn't shared any crucial information with me. He foresaw that the Grand Astrologer would use the Qiongguan Formation against me. To prevent any unforeseen consequences, I only know what the Xianzhou Alliance should know at this moment."

"The third fact is, if the Star Core Hunter isn't the instigator of all this, then why are Ren and I here?"

A smile finally appeared on Kafka's lips: "—It's for you."

"Looking at Xing's shocked expression, Kafka said calmly, "The answer is quite interesting. The Star Core Hunter appeared here, A Ren was captured, and I was led into the Qiongguan Formation. All of this was to bring you—the Starry Sky Train—to the Immortal Ship."

Marvel Universe.

Peter Parker stood in front of the Sanctuary in New York. Half an hour ago, he received a text message from Stephen Strange, inviting him to a gathering. He didn't need to think too much to guess what they were going to talk about - most likely something to do with the magical light curtain in the sky.

Taking a deep breath, he raised his hand and knocked on the heavy wooden door. The knocker's sound was particularly clear in the evening street, but no one answered the door. Just as he was about to knock again, the door opened silently.

"Come in." A deep voice came from inside.

This was not his first time to come to the sanctuary, but every time he came here he couldn't help but exclaim "Wow, wow". The air was filled with the scent of ancient books and sandalwood, and the walls around were hung with all kinds of strange magical instruments.

"Parker, come and find a seat."

The voice came from the spiral staircase above, and Strange's well-proportioned mustache came into view. He was holding a coffee cup and looking down at him condescendingly. "Don't be late next time."

Parker walked up the stairs and saw more than one person sitting in front of the fireplace, Steve Rogers, Dr. Banner and... Mr. Tony Stark!

"You called Parker?" Tony raised his hands, a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, "Magician, you should have informed me in advance."

"Don't worry, it won't take up much of your time." Strange took a deep breath and said, "You all know that the people in the light curtain can observe our world. They have ways to interfere with and influence us... Apart from this fact, there is someone who has caught my attention."

"Who?" Parker asked curiously.

"Elio - although he has never appeared in the light curtain, we know from Kafka's words that this person can predict the future." As he spoke, everyone noticed that the Eye of Agamotto on Strange's chest flashed with a strange light.

They all knew that this was the most magical and important treasure of the Supreme Master, which contained a gem that could reverse time. With it, Strange could observe the past and even the future at will.

"Oh, I think I understand what you mean." Tony raised his eyebrows. "Are you trying to say that Elio is also a Supreme Sorcerer and possesses the same gem as you?"

"I can't be sure—that's why I invited you all." Strange sighed. "To be honest, we know very little about their world. Whether it's the Star Gods or the Heralds, we lack research on them. Continuous observation of them is necessary..."

"You can observe, but we need to change places." Tony looked around the sanctuary and smiled slightly: "How about going to my Stark Tower?"

-

"The Star Train is coming to Luofu, yes, and it's going to make a big move on the Immortal Boat. In the future that Elio has chosen, the power of [Hunting] is indispensable. To do this, you must establish contact with the Alliance..."

"That's why I had to trick you here. I need you to contact General Luofu and help them resolve the chaos in the Star Core, so that the Alliance will owe you a favor. That way, in the future, at the most critical moment, the Immortal Boat will lend you a helping hand."

Kafka smiled gently. "Well? Are you surprised? The infamous Star Core Hunter did so much just to make you a hero of the Immortal Ship—no one could have imagined such a plot, right?"

"The strategist puts himself in the game just to win half a step over fate... It seems that Elio's real purpose is to build a bridge between the alliance and the train." Zhongli laughed.

"However, Keqing, there is one thing I find very strange."

Walnut frowned in confusion. "The key to Elio's plan is to make the Alliance owe him a favor, but according to General Jing Yuan, the Immortal Boat has its own means and capabilities to deal with the star cores. Now that the Star Core Hunter incident is over, there's no need for the train set, right?"

"Master, it's not that simple. Since Elio predicted that Fu Xuan would use the Qiongguan Formation on Kafka, he must have also predicted that this planetary core crisis would be different from previous ones."

Zhongli lowered his head in thought, "Furthermore, Xianzhou is currently facing internal and external troubles. The 'traitor' Kafka mentioned is probably the Medicine King Secret who is colluding with Fengzao. It might not be difficult for Xianzhou to resolve one crisis alone, but if 'Destruction' and 'Fengzao' attack at the same time, causing chaos throughout Luofu..."

"I'm afraid Jing Yuan...his position as general will be in jeopardy."

Chapter 115 What? Yuji Itadori, do you want to elbow Nanook?

"What is this future you're talking about?" Xing was very curious.

"She finds it hard to understand what kind of future would require the power of the entire Immortal Boat Alliance, and even the Patrolling Star Gods?"

"I told you, Elio didn't tell me the key information. The possibilities of the future are endless. Knowing the right thing at the wrong time will make all our efforts go to waste."

"I can only tell you one thing about the future: in both the best and worst futures, you will face Nanook the Destroyer. You will need all the help you can get, for it will be a brutal battle on the level of a Star God."

"That's a level beyond the reach of you, me, and the Star Train. In most futures, fate ends at that moment. But if we follow Elio's script, there will eventually be a glimmer of hope."

"You know what? Stars, even Star Gods, can be killed."

"Kafka's tone was calm, but her words sent shockwaves through my body."

Tokyo Jujutsu High School, Japan.

"Killing gods? What a wild idea! But I like it so much!" Ieiri Shoko slapped her thigh.

Before Kafka mentioned the Star God War, he had always thought that the Star Gods were high and mighty beings, supreme beings who transcended and mastered certain laws. Now that "Star God" and "death" were linked together, these Star Gods felt a rare sense of reality.

"Then according to Kafka, can we conclude that the 'Star Gods' are also just living creatures? ...It's just that their power is even greater." Kusakabe Atsuya speculated, "If they are classified as living creatures, then they are indeed possible to kill..."

"Can Black Flash work on them?" Yuji Itadori blurted out.

"Uh...this...shouldn't work, right?" Angehime held the teacup and imagined the scene of Yuji Itadori using the Black Flash elbow to hit Nanook...hiss, it felt a bit scary.

"If what Elio said is true, and the battle with Nanook is a C'tan-level battle, then even calling in the train crew wouldn't help, right?"

Yuji Itadori shook his head and said, "Although Xing is very strong, do we expect her to hit Nanook on the head with a baseball bat?"

"Uh..." Kusakabe Atsuya also tried to imagine it, but it seemed that there was no clear picture.

"The battles of the Star Gods are at a level unattainable by humans. It seems the only Star God who has passed away is Akivilli of [Pioneering]? Could he have been killed by another Star God?"

“…………”

"At the same time, on the other side of the immortal boat."

"Hey, Rakshasa, you've only just finished talking about [Reproduction]. Go on, it's quite interesting. It's really strange, can Star Gods die? Aren't they invincible?"

Luosha smiled faintly and said, "There is no such thing as absolute invincibility, nor eternal immortality. This is merely an exaggeration from a mortal's perspective. However, Fanyu's fall is indeed beyond the reach of mortals. He fell at the hands of another Star God."

Su Shang tilted her head: "...I don't understand. We are all Star Gods, why do we have to fight and kill each other?"

"Are you...really from the Immortal Boat?" Su Chang's bewildered expression frustrates Luosha. "Leaving aside the other Star Gods, you should know the stories of the patrolling [Lan] and the bountiful [Pharmacist], right? Isn't the long-cherished wish of the Alliance to destroy the Star God Pharmacist?"

“Of course I know!” Su Shang’s voice quickly faded, along with her confidence, when she mentioned the history of the Immortal Boat that her teacher had taught her in class. “Well, I know a little bit… I was supervised by my mother practicing swordsmanship all day, so I didn’t go to school much…”

In the One Punch Man world, the Hero Association headquarters.

"Breeding... is a Star God I've never heard of." Child Emperor muttered to himself, "But it reminds me of those science fiction movies I've seen, those bugs and alien monsters that can be hatched under various conditions."

"The name of each star god more or less represents their responsibilities. This reproduction must be the same as abundance. It is a star god who spreads power to different worlds at will, right?" Bang said.

"Fortunately, he died at the hands of another Star God. Otherwise, I'd be really worried that his power would one day reach our world."

"Tsk, what's there to worry about?" Atomic Samurai said disdainfully. "To deal with an enemy that can reproduce and is numerous, all you need to do is kill them with enough slashes. Unless it's a Star God himself... there's nothing to be afraid of."

After saying that, Atomic Samurai glanced at the green-haired girl in front of him.

The implication was clear: with a superpower like Tornado around, even the largest number of enemies would be a piece of cake for Little Tornado. The only ones they truly needed to be wary of were those above the level of a envoy.

"Then... let's change the subject?" Luosha was helpless.

"Okay, let me change the subject: What's in that big box?" Su Chang curiously poked her head out to examine the coffin behind Luosha.

"Is this the white box? It's a coffin, commonly known as a coffin, used to hold the remains of the deceased," Luosha explained.

"The deceased?" Su Shang opened her eyes wide, "Aren't you a traveling merchant?"

"This is part of the business trip," Luosha explained slowly, "I've been commissioned to deliver this coffin back to the Immortal Boat. Oh, for the immortals, who often live for thousands of years, death is probably a distant concept, right?"

"Not really. Death is commonplace for Cloud Riders on the battlefield. But we don't have the custom of using a box...er, a coffin to hold the body. The Xianzhou people's custom of bidding farewell to their comrades is to enshrine their names and jade omens in the Karma Hall of the Ten Kings' Division."

"Hmm...that's it? Isn't that too simple?" Kurumi frowned slightly. You know, in Teyvat, life is nothing more than death, so the standard of funerals is extremely important.

"Aren't there any necessary supplies for the Shoushan Tower, carriages, sedan chairs, spirit clothes, and spirit boxes? It seems like the Immortal Boat is quite particular about these things."

"Master, although Xianzhou and Liyue have some cultural similarities, their overall customs and habits are very different. The rules and etiquette of funerals need to be adapted to local conditions." Zhongli laughed.

"Oh, what a pity! If we could move the Rebirth Hall to the Immortal Boat, maybe we could..."

Zhongli's eyes gently swept across the girl's cheek, and then he calmly drank a sip of tea: "Master, are you talking about making a fortune?"

"Eh? Keqing, it's really vulgar for you to say that."

Hu Tao smiled slyly, her twin ponytails swaying behind her head. "This is called cultural dissemination. By the way... 'exchanging' our Liyue culture of mourning. If we can build on this to expand the business of the Hall of Rebirth, then that would be great."

Chapter 116 Ao Guang: Every clan has its own problems!

"The fox people and the Vajra Masters each have their own farewell rituals. I've seen fox warriors place their deceased comrades on a star raft and let it drift to the distant stars—they call this 'Rectifying the Green Hills.'"

"As for the Vidyadharas... they're quite mysterious. It's said that when a Vidyadhara lives a long time, or is injured and near death, they transform into a pearl-like egg, then hatch and be reborn as a young child..."
