Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, three months had already passed since the establishment of the "Heaven and Earth Star Standing Committee."

Lan Si’s entire person seemed to have transformed after that vicious fight.

She quickly grew from an ignorant girl into an iron-fisted ruler, growing at a pace that rivaled her organization’s expansion speed.

In three short months, the Heaven and Earth Committee had already become the well-deserved overlord of Heaven and Earth Star. No individual or group dared to disobey its orders.

Of course, it was inevitable that some subordinates would agree on the surface but secretly oppose the Committee. It takes time and accumulation for an organization to gain complete control over all its members. This couldn't be done overnight.

Inside a lofty palace at the very center of Heaven and Earth Star’s continent, a man whose eyes were tightly shut was lying flat on an operating table inside a room that was painted white as new.

"Initializing reincarnation.”

"Infusing the power of shadows…"

"Beginning to infect the subject’s soul…"

"Drawing the third exchange array. Transferring the soul…"

"Failure."

The power of shadows, which had been maintaining a continuous output, seemed to pause slightly at this second and suddenly went berserk, pulverizing the man's body.

Gu Nan scratched his hair somewhat testily. "Another failure. I replicated the entire half-soul exchange process. Where exactly is the problem?"

"Fortunately, the fusion with the law nullification crystal is almost done, otherwise I would’ve accomplished nothing in these three months."

Gu Nan’s mood finally rose a little when he felt the beating of his heart.

He’d stayed on Heaven and Earth Star all three months. Most of his energy was only focused on two things—the fusion of the law nullification crystal and the half-soul exchange method.

The former progressed very smoothly. Gu Nan forcibly incorporated the law nullification crystal into his own body, and no accidents happened during that process.

The law nullification crystal that the Luo siblings couldn’t do anything about was nothing more than paper in front of Gu Nan, unable to resist at all.

But trying to replicate the half-soul exchange method from Immortal Demon World didn’t go as smoothly.

After three months of observation, Gu Nan knew exactly how the world’s origin performed an exchange with the reincarnator’s soul, but his own imitations failed, one after another.

"Either the raw material or location…" Gu Nan wrote down these two factors in his experiment notes.

His experiment only differed from the actual process in Immortal Demon World in two ways: the power of shadows replaced the world’s origin, and the experiment wasn’t conducted inside Immortal Demon World.

‘’I’ll visit Immortal Demon World and give it a try after I finish fusing with the law nullification crystal.’ Gu Nan gently closed his notes and silently decided.

At this time, the palace gates were slowly pushed open. Unsurprisingly, the one who entered was Red Tail.

Only two people knew Gu Nan’s location and might occasionally report to him—Red Tail and Lan Si.

"My Lord, Miss Lan Si started slaughtering people again," Red Tail poured out her grievances to Gu Nan as soon as she entered.

Ever since that day, Lan Si seemed to have become possessed by a demon. Her personality underwent a drastic change, and she often massacred people wantonly, truly befitting the description of "will kill even friendly forces when she goes berserk."

Many people, including Red Tail, were quite worried about this. If such a person was allowed to rule Heaven and Earth Star, they feared it wouldn’t be long before this planet fell into complete turmoil.

Gu Nan, however, wasn’t too concerned about Lan Si's new personality. After all, many players were like this.

Let alone killing NPCs—it wasn’t uncommon for players to run to the wild to kill other players if they were in a bad mood.

Moreover, Lan Si's drastic change in mentality seemed to be very beneficial to her absorption of the Godhead. Gu Nan's current Evil Value had already reached 884. Over half of the 300 or so increase in Evil Value was during the first month.

However, the growth in Evil Value also slowed down as Lan Si’s cultivation reached a bottleneck.

This Godhead’s potential was almost exhausted. After this, Gu Nan’s Evil Value will only have another chance to skyrocket if Lan Si makes a major breakthrough in the future.

But it was also true that Gu Nan couldn’t just sit idly by and watch the situation on Heaven and Earth Star worsen. He needed a stable Heaven and Earth Star to act as a target in White Mist’s stead, so he couldn’t possibly allow Lan Si to break it.

Now that the goal of "training" Lan Si had been achieved, it was time to transfer her to the next position.

"She can stop handling Heaven and Earth Star’s affairs. Didn't you mention last time that there was some trouble in Immortal Demon World? Send her there to help," Gu Nan casually said.

Red Tail was the one who brought up the trouble in Immortal Demon World not long ago.

To put it simply, the world's destiny was so active that the harvest of destiny was much more difficult.

A child of destiny who merely had a 3-star rating in White Mist’s internal rating system and who only had less than two years to grow often required White Mist to send out an Infinitesimal Stage cultivator to handle them, just to be on the safe side.

But the 3-star rating merely corresponded to someone who recently entered Prodigious Realm. White Mist had even fewer people who could deal with the higher 4-star and 5-star ratings.

Fortunately, a Dao Lord level child of destiny with a 6-star rating had yet to appear inside Immortal Demon World. Even those with 5-star ratings were wiped out by White Mist’s members before they could get the chance to grow.

At present, the situation was still under White Mist’s control, but their manpower was somewhat insufficient. They especially lacked top-level cultivators.

The closer someone was to Tier 4, the longer their "cooldown" period after each reincarnation. It would take more time for the reincarnator’s soul to heal. Not even Gu Nan could avoid this.

Red Tail finished reporting the recent matters and soon left, while Gu Nan calmed down.

Immortal Demon World’s peculiarity was once again displayed in front of his eyes. If he still couldn’t sense that something was fishy about this world, then Gu Nan would’ve completed all those missions in vain.

"Half-soul exchange, a particularly active force of destiny… Maybe another mission can be found there?" Gu Nan rubbed his chin. His instincts as a mission expert made him harbor some suspicions.

But there was no hurry. What he needed to do most right now was to accumulate more power.

After stepping into Tier 4, Gu Nan was practically invincible among those of the same level due to his Evil God physique and the buffs from his various skills. When he completely masters the law nullification crystal, nobody in Tier 4 will be a threat to him anymore.

But Tier 4 wasn’t Gu Nan's end goal at all. The imaginary enemies in his heart had always been at Tier 5 or even higher.

Different from the qualitative leap in one’s essence as a lifeform when advancing from Tier 3 to Tier 4, there actually wasn’t that big of a difference between Tier 4 and Tier 5.

Tier 4 required players to build their exclusive laws, while Tier 5 required players to use their laws to build their own worlds.

However, before the player’s own world is truly established and the player successfully completes the First Round by stepping into Tier 6, Tier 5 was merely a quantitative accumulation, so it wasn’t impossible to defeat Tier 5 enemies while only at Tier 4.

At least in his previous life’s game, it wasn’t uncommon for Tier 4 players to trounce Tier 5 NPCs by virtue of some extremely powerful laws.

Speaking of which, Gu Nan really had seen an extremely powerful law in this world before.

It wasn’t bad, even compared to his law of shadows. This law was currently held by a woman, and she also happened to be inside Immortal Demon World right now.
