In the sky, the faint yellow river was getting closer and closer.

Occasionally, the corpses of dead people could be seen floating up and down in the river, being carried away by the current.

All of a sudden, a black shadow appeared from the river.

It quickly descended, penetrating through the river water, falling towards the ground like a meteor.

The shadow was moving faster and faster until it reached the plains in almost the blink of an eye.

"What's that?"

Aldrich's triumphant expression had already disappeared, replaced by a cautious look.

The card users also stopped acting rashly.

Facing an unknown situation, anyone's first reaction would be to wait and see.

What landed on the desert was a square-shaped machine.

It had a transparent, glass-like screen that had already lit up to display a chaotic snowflake.

A gentle and graceful female voice sounded from the machine:

[Greetings everyone, I am the main processor of Huang Quan's affairs, serial number 00000]

[From now on, I will call out the numbers according to the Law of Causality]

[Please do not crowd, follow the order of Huang Quan's civilization, under the premise of mutual respect, do your best to maintain a warm and friendly atmosphere to conclude this event]

[Begin with the first call out]

[In consideration of the Causality of the human realm's fragment being bound to this place, the Deity with serial number 000001, the venerable Deity of Huang Quan, please act and sever the power that binds this world]

A line of black numbers appeared on the screen:

[000001]

A hoarse and sharp laughter resounded in the sky.

A small boat appeared on the faint yellow river.

The mist obscured everyone's vision, making it impossible to see what was on the boat, only the faint figure of a woman could be seen.

She then spoke: "I have too many situations to deal with, I can't waste too much power here, the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, lend me your aid!"

In the distant horizon, a gigantic black mountain that connected heaven and earth silently appeared.

A cold gleam flew from the peak of the mountain, lightly landing on the boat and being caught by the woman.

"All Laws, all powers, before this sword, all will be destroyed, it cannot be disobeyed."

(TN: Shannu!)

The woman uttered a shout, then lightly swung the cold gleam towards the void of space.

Both heaven and earth began to tremble.

At the very next moment.

Lines of burning text appeared in the void of space:

[Special reminder:]

[All restraints of the human realm have been released!]

[The human world is about to return to the Six Paths of Reincarnation!]

Everyone stood on the plains, speechless.

Breaking the world with a single sword.

What kind of power was this?!

In the face of such power, who would dare to act rashly?

After the sword strike, the fog on the river continued to rise, gradually covering the small boat completely. It could no longer be seen clearly.

The square machine that landed on the plain shone again.

A gentle female voice sounded from the machine:

[The second call will begin.]

[The dead have been discovered to be under the control of their souls. Please request the number 000005 Gou Hun and the number 000009 Duo Huo to come and collect the souls.]

A faintly discernible wooden bridge quietly appeared above the Forgetting River. Two blurry figures stood on the bridge and said in unison, "In front of life and death, take away the soul!"

Rumble —

Following their voices, two huge bronze doors appeared at the end of the wooden bridge.

The door opened, revealing the endless darkness within.

Light.

The light pierced through the darkness and gushed out from the giant door, sprinkling onto the ground.

All living beings that were illuminated by this light immediately regained their consciousness.

As if remembering everything that had happened before, they cheered loudly.

"We're saved!"

"We're finally saved!"

"It's Huang Quan, We're returning to Huang Quan, leaving this land of eternal darkness!"

Cultivators, demons, and wraiths all flew into the sky, turning into streaks of light that shot toward the giant door.

The square machine spoke again:

[The third call will begin]

[According to the cause and effect of this world being stolen, please dispatch numerous ghosts and gods to guard the two worlds to prevent anyone from interfering with this large-scale reincarnation]

[The range of this call is: All Deities numbered 00015 – 000273]

In the sky, dignified entities clad in armor and glowing from head to toe appeared one after another.

They were either skeletons, men and women, wraiths, or even beast kings, all of them hovered above the river, staring coldly at the void of space and the ground.

Under the intimidation of these Deities, no one dared to act recklessly.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of the Clown.

Li Zhangxue!

She looked at the Clown and muttered "So I'm already dead, which means we only met after death?"

"No, I'm still alive. I'm the only living person here." the Clown replied

"Now that I remember everything, you're Gua Saint's disciple?" Li Zhangxue asked.

"That's me." the Clown admitted.

One figure after another stopped in midair and looked at him in unison.

"So you were the one who saved us all." a female cultivator from the Profundity sect spoke.

"I could already tell that he wasn't ordinary at the time, but you insisted on testing him again before accepting him into our Profundity Palace" Profundity sect's Xie Dong Liu laughed.

"So you still haven't died ... as expected of the Demon Lord!" the Tiger Demon loudly exclaimed.

"So it's you, Gua Saint truly has a worthy successor!" A sect master praised.

The dead all hovered in the air, looked at the Clown and cheered.

Li Zhangxue suddenly thought of something and gripped Liu Ping's hand tightly:

"Now that we've all entered Huang Quan, what about you?"

It was quiet all around.

The square-shaped machine lit up again.

A gentle voice came from the machine:

[The fourth call will begin]

[Requesting the Samsara Hall Master with the number 000006 to handle this special matter]

[Please release this cultivator with nine billion merit points to another world.]

In the sky, an old lady in royal attire arrived with two groups of male and female Divinities in official attire.

"Greetings, Divinity." Liu Ping clasped his fist.

"The younger generation will surpass us in time, but your colorful outfit is a bit too fashionable, it's a bit blinding." the old lady evaluated him and smiled.

She casually waved her hand.

Behind her, a man with a long beard stepped forward with a book in hand: "Then we'll bring him along and place him in the Sumeru Mountain realm, allowing him to enter any realm he wants. What do you think?"

"I think it's a good idea, young man. What do you think?" the old lady asked.

"Thank you, Great Divinity, I only have one question." the Clown replied.

"Go ahead."

"Can I take everything I have with me?"

"You can take the cat demon, but the dragon that you turned into a card, as well as the Divinity from Purgatory, you can't take them with you."

"Why not?"

The old lady sighed and casually pointed at the void of space.

The Purgatory Divine Pillar and Eternal Night Divine Pillar appeared in front of everyone.

"Young man, this is the Purgatory world system, it has its own Karma, while we belong to the Samsara world system, we also have our own Karma."

"According to our laws and rules, we will not accept anyone or anything that doesn't belong to the Samsara system, to prevent the Samsara from being tainted by these Karma and affecting the entire Samsara plan."

The old lady patiently explained.

The Clown froze.

Aldrich was standing afar, then suddenly laughed out loud:

"Let go, Clown!"

"You're quite the character to be able to cause such a ruckus, but — — all I need to do now is wait for you to leave, and I can guarantee that I won't trouble you again — — -"

"After all, you can't stop me from doing anything."

The Clown coldly glanced at him.

Yana suddenly appeared from the void of space and muttered: "Forget it, just run away, Andrea and I belong here — —"

Before she could finish, the Clown had already put his hand over her mouth.

"Samsara HallMaster, there's something I don't understand." he said.

"What is it?" the old lady squinted her eyes and asked.

"The entire human realm has been taken away by someone else, are we not going to do anything about it?" the Clown asked.

The old lady chuckled and said nothing.

The Clown continued: "Karma comes from our actions, and now that I'm leaving with the people around me, are you not going to help me at all?"

The old lady shook her head again and again: "According to the rules, the Samsara has an incomparably divine mission, and now is not the time to provoke the Purgatory world system — — - we really can't do anything about it."

Before the Clown could say anything, Aldrich had already sighed in relief and said:

"So that's what it was!"

Aldrich drew a Card, tossed it out, and shouted:

"Divine Seat Supremacy!"

The card depicted two people with weapons in their hands. They were fighting each other around a crown that was floating in the air.

Bam — —

The Card turned into a mass of fog and manifested as a high platform.

As the Clown looked at the platform, lines of burning text appeared in front of his eyes:

[The other side has initiated a Divine Seat Supremacy]

[This is a battle to the death for the sake of the Divine Seat]

[The two sides of this battle are: Aldrich and Yana]

Aldrich loudly declared: "To avoid any unexpected complications, right now, right here and now, I swear to take the Divine Seat from the Goddess of Torment!"

He looked at Yana from afar with a ferocious expression on his handsome face.

"Matriarch, the Karma curse can be broken now, I want to ascend to the Divine Seat right away!"

From the void of space, a cold female voice resounded: "Are you confident?"

"Her entire Card Deck is in my hands, the only Divine Garment card she had was given to someone else, and she's currently in a weakened state. If I still can't kill her, I'd rather die." Aldrich replied.

A beautiful string suddenly appeared in the void. One end was connected to Yana's hand, and the other end was connected to Aldrich's hand.

"Break!" The cold female voice said.

The thread broke with a sound.

Aldrich laughed heartily.

"Yana, since I can't get your heart, your only fate is to become a stepping stone for me to ascend to Godhood!"

Step by step, he walked towards the high platform.

The Clown asked in a low voice: "Yana, are you sure you can win against him?"

Yana blankly shook her head: "The curse on my body has indeed disappeared, but now — — I don't have a single combat card that I can use."

The clown was silent for a few breaths. Suddenly, he saw the old lady standing beside him and looking at him with a smile.

"You really can't help?" Clown asked.

"Of course not, none of the Divinities of Huang Quan can do it." The old lady quickly shook her head.

The Clown sighed and grabbed Yana's hand: "There a way — —"

"What method?" Yana didn't understand.

"Let me be your card," the clown said.

"You?" Yana asked in surprise.

"That's right, since you don't have any cards to use, let me be your card" the clown replied.

Yana said: "You can't win against him, that's the [Torment] Deck, a Deity's — —"

The clown cut her off: "No, as long as there's a way for me to be your card, I'll be the one to fight."

Yana wiped the corner of her eyes and muttered: "Liu Ping ... there's no other way, we — —"

Cough!

A dry cough cut Yana off.

The clown turned to the old lady again. Only to see that she was using her sleeve to cover her mouth while coughing nonstop.

The old lady met the clown's doubtful gaze and smiled apologetically: "Don't misunderstand, us Divinities of Huang Quan really can't help you."

She then muttered in a low voice: "I seem to have forgotten something just now ... other than the world spirit, what else is there ... what exactly drew us here, I really can't remember ... do any of you remember?"

The old lady looked behind her.

None of the Divinities said anything and shook their heads.

The clown turned to the Divinities.

The Divinities behind the old lady stood in a neat row, originally expressionless and filled with killing intent.

But as soon as the clown's gaze turned towards them, their expressions changed.

All of them winked at the clown, trying to signal him with their eyes, as if there was something that they couldn't remind him of as bystanders, but also couldn't help but want to.

On the other side, the platform lit up with layers of light, exuding an overwhelming presence.

"Come up! This is an unavoidable battle of Divinities! Yana! "

Aldrich called out loudly.

Yana's body suddenly shook. She was dragged by an invisible force and flew toward the high platform.

Countless thoughts flashed through the clown's mind.

At the very next moment.

He quickly formed a hand seal with both hands.

His left hand used [Sealing Corpse Yin Shift], his right hand used [Soul Comes Soul Goes], then clasped his hands together.

Instantly, both hand seals were formed!

The clown combined the two hand seals together to form a strange hand seal.

Huang Quan Divine Skill, [Forgotten River]!

In the sky, the image of the large river suddenly became clearer.

A huge rock appeared on the bank of the river.

A pleasant female voice resounded from the boulder:

"Alright, I'll accept it."

"After all, I can't stand to watch such a thing."

"Not to mention — — -"

"I'm not a Divinity of Huang Quan, I don't need to follow your rules."

A figure appeared on the boulder.

It was a woman with crimson hair. She looked down at the ground below and reached her hand into the void of space to grab a long scythe that was burning with boundless flames.

The clown looked at this woman.

Lines of glowing text suddenly appeared above her head:

[Daughter of the fallen stars, Eternal Servant of the Death God, Guide of Endless Death]

(TN: Scarlet!!! Ohh Yeahhh!!)
