Chapter 151 Initial Number, Bronze Great Hall

The statue of the Lord of Love was returned to its original position.

Beside this statue now stood a tall nutrient tank. Inside the tank, a slender figure was immersed in a hazy holy light.

Gu Shen held a stack of neatly folded red and white robes, standing quietly in front of this life tank, looking up at the hazy, beautiful glow.

This was Chu Ling's "physical body".

In fact, the source of the Gene Law back then was "Chu Ling".

Mr. Turing extracted a segment of the gene sequence and created the 【Source Code】 with his own personality. If it hadn't been for the data war, Gu Wen would have been liquidated and exterminated. Turing's next plan was to use gene technology to create a body of her own for the 【Source Code】.

"'Rebirth' countdown, fifteen minutes remaining."

Alfred floated over Gu Shen's shoulder, his tone very solemn, even more nervous than Gu Shen.

"Relax."

Gu Shen smiled and said, "Gene technology is already very mature. Now we just need to wait."

"That's the theory... but it's hard for me to relax."

Alfred said earnestly, "The existence of Chu Ling is also a legacy of the Lord of Love."

It was already very content to be able to see the "ashes" left over from the Starship Era, to be able to see the "traces" left by its master in this world.

Alfred was very grateful to Gu Shen.

The starship that Gu Shen brought back from the 【Old World】, although only half of it remained, was still a precious gift of extraordinary significance to it.

That was the starship that the master once rode, containing the legendary "Time Dojo"!

Gu Shen saw Alfred's nervousness.

He smiled and changed the subject: "How are the preparations for the North Continent's defenses recently?"

"Everything is going smoothly."

This method worked. After changing the subject, Alfred's mood relaxed a lot: "The 'Iron Melting Heir' you chose has arrived at the edge of the North Continent. That young man's strength is good. Although he can't compare with the master... the wear and tear on a few starships should be repaired and improved soon."

Xie Zheng left Changye after receiving the Iron Melting Fire.

Melting the fire took time.

The human world only had seven years.

Every minute and second of the chosen "God Seat" was extremely important.

Senior Sister Luo Er escorted Xie Zheng all the way to the Time Dojo. In the Time Dojo, Xie Zheng could wholeheartedly ponder the inheritance of forging, mind-flow practice, and fire melting.

"What about those two? How are they doing?"

The two people Gu Shen was referring to were "Mr. Bai Shu" and "Empress Lin Lei".

Bai Shu and Lin Lei made great contributions in the battle of the Source Tower.

Without their "selfless dedication", the Deep Sea would have been able to sweep the inland with the power of Qinglong five years ago. Gu Shen would not have had the chance to melt the fire, and Meng Xizhou would not have been able to become the heir of Guang Ming Bi Lei.

After the end of the God war, the Great Cold Source was still very "solid".

Lin Lei and Bai Shu didn't know what their future held. They could only bet everything on the young man...

So the Great Cold Source could not be broken by external forces.

"According to my calculations, it will take about ten years for the ice to completely melt."

Alfred said, "They are placed in the deepest part of the Time Dojo. Ten years isn't that long."

With the existence of the "Time Dojo".

Every God Seat could adjust to their "best state".

"But there's some bad news..."

Alfred paused for a moment and said, "Xiao Man is cultivating in the dojo. Not long ago, she discovered that this dojo has a 'compatibility limit'."

"Compatibility limit?"

"Perhaps it's because there were only four fire leaders in the Starship Era."

Alfred sighed helplessly and said, "When four fire leaders squeeze into the Time Dojo, the efficiency of the 'space-time laws' in the dojo reaches its limit. If another God Seat steps into it, the time flow in the dojo will become unbalanced... In other words, according to the original dojo design, the twelve God Seats cannot enter this dojo together."

"In the past few days, the God Seats and fire heirs have been arriving in the North Continent one after another."

Alfred looked at Gu Shen and said, "This problem is not small, but not big either. If the seven years are used reasonably, then everyone can have their own 'melting limit'."

"The dojo's carrying capacity has reached its limit because Gu Zhi's goddess's understanding of the 'time source' is incomplete."

Gu Shen lowered his eyebrows and said, "Perhaps... I can help."

"This dojo is based on the time source as its pillar..."

Alfred was stunned for a second and said, "How can you help?"

"Mr. Gu Changzhi comprehended the 【Wu Liang】 related to time. In fact, 【Wu Liang】 isn't that difficult to comprehend."

Gu Shen said gently, "Time is like a long river. Being in the river is like being trapped in mud, and you can never see the whole picture of the river. Only by standing on the shore can you hold time in your palm."

This sentence was obviously a bit obscure to Alfred.

Gu Shen waved his sleeve.

He showed Alfred two screen projections in his spiritual sea.

The first one was the scene of the Sky Sheath Sword being drawn.

The second one was the scene of Shenci Mountain.

After leaving the Tundra, Gu Shen went to Shenci Mountain. This was the reason why he was holding this stack of goddess clothes.

Several years ago, Gu Changzhi had been to both of these places.

Gu Changzhi had the opportunity to draw the sword, but he didn't.

Gu Changzhi could have cleared the black flowers all over Shenci Mountain, but he didn't.

At this moment, the "past" and "present" of these two pictures almost overlapped... Mr. Gu Changzhi chose to leave the hope of mankind to that right era, and so there was Gu Shen.

Gu Shen completed the things he had not finished.

Gu Shen pulled out the "Sword in the Stone" and also cleared the black flowers all over the mountains and fields.

After fulfilling his promise to the Li family.

Gu Shen vaguely felt the meaning of 【Wu Liang】.

Perhaps Mr. Gu Changzhi had already broken free from the river of time. He had always been standing on the shore, so he did those things that people couldn't understand at the time.

Cause, effect. Samsara.

The black flowers all over Shenci Mountain were removed, and endless light fell.

At that moment, Gu Shen also felt what it was like to stand on the shore.

The moment Gu Shen flicked his sleeve, a wisp of mind-flow power swept out with it.

In the void of the Time Dojo, golden light and fire suddenly ignited!

Gu Xiaoman, who was in seclusion in the dojo, opened her eyes. She looked at the ball of light in front of her, feeling the familiar aura.

"Brother..."

Xiao Man murmured.

Seeing the blazing fire now was like seeing Gu Shen.

The ball of light gently separated a wisp of flame and swept into the center of Gu Xiaoman's eyebrows, as if to give a response.

At the same time, this blazing fire swept toward every "fire owner" who had arrived in the North Continent and had already entered the dojo, or had not yet entered the dojo.

"Everyone, if you step into the dojo, then bring this wisp of fire with you..."

Gu Shen said softly, "This wisp of blazing fire should be able to help you cross the carrying rules of the 'Time Dojo'."

He stood on the shore.

Time and light could not bind him.

And the transcendents who held this wisp of blazing fire... theoretically, they were equivalent to Gu Shen's "mind-flow incarnation". Even if a thousand of him entered the dojo, it was still "one" of him.

"???"

Alfred stared blankly at Gu Shen.

He said with a complicated voice, "Are you... cheating?"

"How can this be considered cheating?"

Gu Shen smiled, "I have already given away the 'Nether Fire'. I don't even have a fire seed, so I naturally don't count as a God Seat... Since I'm not a God Seat, then my existence won't cause a 'burden' on the Time Dojo, will it?"

Alfred was speechless for a moment.

Gu Shen blinked and threw a meaningful question to Alfred.

"Have you ever thought about what the existence of 'Blazing Fire' is?"

Alfred fell into deep thought.

The existence of Blazing Fire...

What exactly was it?

In the Starship Era, the birth of every fire leader was a miracle that went through countless hardships. Transcendents needed to communicate with the "Gospel Box". The transcendents of that era knew very little about fire.

Later, in the process of escape, the Gospel Box separated and disintegrated, and then there was a clear "fire".

Gu Shen quietly looked at Alfred.

He had actually been thinking about this question for a long time, probably when he was in Yuandan Street and absorbed the first black dot of disordered source quality.

Why could only transcendents who had reached the 【Apostle】 level eliminate the black dots?

Blazing Fire could easily eliminate them?

Logically speaking, that should be the ability that only fire possessed!

Regarding this question, Gu Shen didn't find the answer until after the end of the "Restarted Dream".

He wanted to pull out the "Sword of Extinguishing Fire" from the statue of the Lord of Love.

But repeated attempts in the real world ended in failure. Even if he melted the Nether Fire, he still didn't see any hope.

But in the dream, he successfully drew the sword...

Nether Fire couldn't draw the sword, only Blazing Fire could.

Blazing Fire was a power of a higher level than "fire".

If the origin of "fire" meant the complete crushing of the rules of the material world, meaning the highest level of "disorder".

Then the power of "Blazing Fire" was the highest level of "order" that stood on the opposite side of fire.

This was the reason why Blazing Fire could draw the sword.

The Sword of Extinguishing Fire that Starship Civilization wanted to forge was actually "Blazing Fire", the ultimate "order"!

"Many years ago, the fire leaders of the Starship Era took their own fire from the 'Gospel Box'."

Gu Shen reminded softly, "Then what is the 'Gospel Box'?"

"Gospel Box... Gospel Box?"

Alfred's pupils contracted, his eyes widened.

He suddenly understood Gu Shen's meaning.

Fire was a fragment of the Gospel Box, but piecing them together didn't count as a complete "Gospel Box".

Disorder pieced together was still disorder.

They needed a layer of "order" on the outside.

Alfred murmured, "So your 'Blazing Fire' is the box that carries twelve fires..."

"This is just a guess."

Gu Shen smiled and said, "But I'm sure that I'm not the only one who has this guess. At least Mr. Turing thinks so too."

Because in the highest seat conference room in the Dead Sea District, there were thirteen seats!

Twelve fires.

And... the "Blazing Fire" that symbolized order and induction!

……

……

Alfred was still in shock.

The huge life tank suddenly began to tremble.

This meant that Chu Ling's rebirth had begun the final countdown.

A few seconds later, holy light overflowed from the mithril, and the Bronze Great Hall was filled with wind out of thin air, and countless warm winds echoed everywhere.

Golden fantasy spread slowly at this moment.

The woman in the tank slowly opened her eyes.

After her resurrection, Chu Ling's body was like those transcendents who had been completely "elementalized". Due to the 【Unfading】 characteristic of the Love Fire's touch-stone-into-gold power, she leaned forward slightly, and her soft body broke through the shell of the life tank, like a drop of water, and gently landed on the ground.

Wind lingered, and countless holy lights shattered with the wind.

She fell into Gu Shen's arms.

"How do you feel?"

"I feel... not bad. This time I didn't crawl out of a well. It's very fresh."

Perhaps because they hadn't "met" for too long.

Their conversation at this moment sounded very polite, even a bit estranged.

But the next moment.

Chu Ling put most of her weight on Gu Shen and said softly, "Sorry... my legs are a little weak. Help me up."

"???"

Alfred was stunned. What vulgar words.

"I'm holding you."

Gu Shen said gently, "It's not embarrassing to have weak legs and not be able to stand when you're truly alive for the first time."

Thinking back to that year.

When he was just reincarnated into the Divine Infant body... he couldn't stand either, and could only crawl.

Gu Shen gave Alfred a look that said, "You better be sensible."

But the latter didn't react at all, but instead tsked and leaned closer.

"Um... cough cough!"

Gu Shen coughed heavily with his fist clenched.

Alfred was still unmoved, and even said blankly, "What's wrong? Is your throat uncomfortable?"

"..."

Gu Shen sighed softly, without saying anything more, but lit the Blazing Fire and pulled the surrounding area into the 【Creator】 domain.

The space around the two quickly changed, and the next moment, they arrived under the Susu Sacred Tree of the Pure Land.

The posture of embracing each other didn't change at all.

But now, the two had come from the real world to the spiritual world.

It was just that... compared to the Bronze Great Hall of the Initial Number, the Pure Land was not necessarily a better place for a private meeting.

The Susu Sacred Tree of the Pure Land was very lively now.

The legion of undead, a sea of people, were all watching the show.

Gu Shen was the master of the world, and the phenomena when he descended alarmed everyone.

Although there was a restriction around the Susu Sacred Tree, shielding the specific images, the blurred posture of the two embracing each other at this moment could be seen very clearly.

"Tsk tsk... truly envious."

Tie Wu grinned to the root of his teeth and put his arm around the dazed Hong Zhong.

"Miss Chu... we've finally met again."

Li Qingci sat outside the house, silently sipping tea alone, with a gratified smile on her face.

Under the Susu Sacred Tree.

"...Sorry to keep you waiting."

Chu Ling's cheeks were slightly flushed, and her voice was very small, so small that only the two of them could hear it.

Gu Shen shook his head.

Chu Ling had waited for him in the Ice Sea for seven full years.

Compared to that.

Gu Shen was not the one who had "waited long".

Looking back, Gu Shen always felt that he was a lucky person.

Because he was lucky, he couldn't let down those who had silently given for him.

Gu Shen said seriously, word by word, "I'm the one who should say I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
