When Mrs. Qu and the high-ranking being in her arms were completely evaporated by the light beam falling from the sky, the entire Tongtian City gradually recovered from the chaos.

The barking dogs regained their composure, the rats scurrying around once again hid in their burrows, and the crows in the sky also dispersed.

The originally agitated, panicked and even somewhat frantic people were freed from their nightmare state and were surprised as to why they had lost control so much just now.

And in the Qu family's manor, all the twisted and mutated monsters collapsed in bursts of howls, were freed, and turned into scattered flesh and blood that exuded a thick stench.

When the Holy See's rescue team arrived at the scene, all they saw were broken limbs and remains on the ground.

Whether they are the investigators, hunters, or the monsters summoned from another world by the Qu family, they have all been completely put to rest under the power of the Emperor's Sky Star.

The only person who survived this disaster was investigator Zhan Tian.

He was carried out of the Qu family manor with everyone watching. He was treated like a hero afterwards and became the biggest contributor to this incident.

According to the Holy See's public statement, Zhan Tian, ​​with the bravery and never-give-up spirit bestowed by the emperor, discovered the dirty deeds of the Qu family beneath the surface of being a good person.

He led other investigators to destroy the rituals of the cult, and under the inspiration of the power of Emperor Tian, ​​killed the evil god who descended from the outer world...

While people were cheering and celebrating, Zhan Tian had been sent to the mental sanatorium in Cam City and underwent a comprehensive inspection by the Holy See.

He was stripped of all his clothes and inspected from head to toe by groups of people... without sparing a single hair.

Then he was surrounded by a group of priests and performed the whipping ceremony of the emperor. He was soaked in the Holy See's talisman water many times, and was taken to various mental tests by those crazy psychiatrists...

All this process was to prevent him, the only survivor present, from being influenced by the evil god and having his mind contaminated by the abnormal power outside that day.

In this mental sanatorium, what Zhan Tian heard most was the screams of other patients and the priests' constant prayers day and night.

At this moment, Zhan Tian, ​​who had finished being tortured, was lying on the bed.

The electric lamp next to the hospital bed was lit day and night, just because Zhan Tian couldn't bear the darkness for a minute now.

In his mind, there were still nightmare-like scenes in the basement of the Qu family manor.

Since leaving that basement, he hasn't had a complete sleep for a long, long time.

He felt that the deep terror from outside the sky, the thick malice originating from the depths of the universe had not left, but were hiding in the darkness, ready to come back at any time.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"Your feeling is correct."

"Who?" Zhan Tian was shocked and immediately jumped up from the hospital bed.

But no matter how he responded, the voice never sounded.

Zhan Tian banged the door of the hospital bed in fear, calling the names of the priest and doctor...

…

Sara Palace.

Chu Qi Guangpan was sitting in mid-air. The blood pools around him and the living corpses in the blood pools were continuously performing rituals to communicate with the void, increasing his efficiency in receiving void information.

But Chu Qiguang felt the intermittent messages coming from the void, and still frowned slightly: "It seems that the signal of this miniaturized ritual track is still too poor, and there is no way to connect to it all the time."

During this period, in the process of using the void to collect knowledge and intelligence, Chu Qiguang also exchanged and learned with friends in the Book of Void, and completed some explorations of miniaturization of rituals.

The result is a small ball of flesh and blood parasitic on the body of 'Investigator Zhan Tian'.

However, this kind of miniaturized ritual obviously has problems in many aspects, such as the signal being very unstable.

Chu Qiguang had just exchanged a word with Zhan Tian, ​​but he had already received no response from the other party.

"Take your time. Although the Qu family's operation failed, Zhan Tian has gained a firm foothold in the Holy See after destroying the Qu family's lair. Anyway, I won't lose."

Unable to receive a signal for the time being, Chu Qiguang started doing other things at hand.

Along with the sacrifice of a large amount of qi and blood, Chu Qiguang's eyes appeared one after another in the transformation of saints. This was exactly the effect of the 'Hetero Sacrifice', which allowed him to refresh the transformation of saints by sacrificing qi and blood.

However, multiple refreshes in a short period of time will cause a significant increase in energy and blood consumption, so he chose the most cost-effective option of three times a month.

The four divine transformations obtained this time are the 'Void Rite' that speeds up the speed of traveling in the void, the 'Vajra Reversal' that transforms offensive and defensive power, the 'Variety of Divine Powers' that are related to deducing magical powers, and the 'Variety of Divine Powers' that is related to the Ring of Foolishness.

A fool becomes enlightened'.

The four transformations all encountered similar situations in his future deduction. With a flash of his eyes, he chose Fool Qianwu.

"Fool Qianwu."

"The Mark of the Fool similar to the Ring of Fool."

"Comes from the power of counterfeit foolishness."

"It enables stupid people to apply profound knowledge without knowing anything about it."

"It is said that ignorance was once the best way to counteract knowledge."

"But driven by greed, this method has long been used by no one."

"The first foolish people have given up, and the subsequent followers are just pretending to be so."

This transformation related to the Ring of Foolishness was also the transformation into a saint that Chu Qiguang could only achieve after he created the "Great Joyful Magical Power Book".

After all, the "Book of Great Joyful Magical Powers" condenses all he has learned, including the secrets of the Ring of Foolishness, so it is not surprising that he can achieve a similar transformation.

After absorbing this transformation into his body, Chu Qiguang felt as if his consciousness was covered with a layer of cotton yarn. He no longer understood the connotation of many transformations, but he could understand their applications.

"This power of transformation is equivalent to turning many mysterious powers into complete black boxes."

"The user can know the results of using it, but they have no knowledge of the details and various taboos."

"This thing is useless to me, but it is a great thing for the general public..."

The next moment, Chu Qiguang stored the four transformations of the sage into his body: everyone is like me, heretics offer enlightenment, fools realize thousands of times, and the magical book is stored in his body.

Then he began to unify these four powers of transformation with a self-created Taoist technique.

"The common people will be free and happy, and there will be eternal calamity in the future, and they will have supernatural powers!"

I saw Chu Qiguang forming seals with his hands, and a huge door exploded from between his hands, containing infinite mystery and power.

This Taoist technique is called 'The Gate of Wonders'. It is a profound Taoist technique that Chu Qiguang deduced after hundreds of deductions and a lot of energy and wisdom to integrate the core transformation he selected.

At this moment, as the Gate of Wonders emerged, the powers of the four major transformations were sucked into it one after another, turning into a mysterious and mysterious aura.

"It's done for now."

Feeling the power running in the gate, Chu Qiguang thought to himself: 'Now as long as you contact the people at the Gate of Wonders, you can use the power of this platform to spend your energy and blood to draw out new transformations.'

'The transformations chosen by them will be temporarily stored in the Gate of Wonders and will be loaned out when they need them.'

'However, it can currently only afford 50 users. Each user can only borrow the power of one transformation at a time and can store two transformations.'

‘This is considered to be the Gate of Wonders 0.1 beta version for the time being.’

'If you want to set the price... then the first draw will cost 10 gas, the second draw will cost 100 gas, and the third draw will cost 1,000 gas. The price will be reset at the beginning of each month.'

'After all, I also want to protect my capital, so the charge is a little more expensive than if I smoked it myself, which is very reasonable.'

With the existence of the Gate of Wonders, fifty more people were suddenly added to help Chu Qiguang extract transformations, and the number of transformations that could be accessed suddenly reached 100. The efficiency brought about was a qualitative improvement.

But Chu Qiguang knew in his heart that in order to develop this magical power to the height he desired, he had to continue to collect more knowledge and integrate the power of "Vajra Phases" to continuously optimize the magical power itself.

'Anyway, let's test it first.'

So in the following days, Chu Qiguang selected some people in Night City to become the first users of the Gate of Wonders, and asked them to test the entire process to see if there were any problems.

At the same time, the situation on investigator Zhan Tian's side gradually developed new developments due to Chu Qiguang's intervention.

…

"Mr. Zhan Tian, ​​we checked your physical and mental condition."

In the office of Kam Nursing Home, Zhan Tian's attending physician smiled kindly: "You are very normal. There is no sign of being contaminated by the evil god from the inside to the outside of your body."

But Zhan Tian didn't think so. He slapped the table and shouted loudly: "I can dream about everything in the Qu family manor every day this year."

"And that evil god...he's been talking to me! He's in my head!"

The attending physician pushed up his glasses and said patiently: "Mr. Zhan Tian, ​​what happened in Qujia Manor was an unforgettable nightmare for everyone. It is possible that you have some memories left in your heart because of that experience.

Trauma."

"The evil voice you heard is just an hallucination caused by some trauma."

"You should relax and stop being so nervous all day long."

Zhan Tian looked at the doctor in front of him angrily. He had reported his situation to his superiors time and time again in the past year.

At first, the Holy See attached great importance to his report, detained him with the highest standards, and continued to search for traces of the evil god's power in him day and night.

But as time passed, more and more priests and doctors said that his physical and mental condition was normal.

Some senior investigators also said that without rituals and sacrifices by cultists, it is unlikely that an evil god could transcend the limitations of time and space and communicate directly with Zhan Tian.

Gradually... people began to think that Zhan Tian was simply mentally stimulated.

Some professors believed that he could not accept the deaths of his teammates and subconsciously punished himself out of guilt, insisting that he had been contaminated by the evil god.

Zhan Tian dismissed the words of those bullshit professors, but it turned out that the experts at Kam Sanatorium were indeed helpless about his situation.

"Hahahaha, do you believe it now?"
