Chapter 1038: Chapter 2985: Survival Rules of the Upper Realm
"No! No... don’t do this! Stop! Stop right now!" The Queen Ant’s expression changed immediately upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, and she shouted...
Gu Changsheng was right: as the Queen Ant of the Ant Clan, she naturally wasn’t afraid of water, but what about her people?
Without the Ant Soldiers, does she, the Queen Ant, have to become a loner to transport food herself?
Wouldn’t that be a joke?
So, Gu Changsheng’s threat was extremely lethal to the Queen Ant!
"What did you say? The aroma of the wine is too fragrant, I can’t hear you!" Gu Changsheng responded, cupping his ear, and deliberately said.
The aroma of the wine and whether he could hear were clearly unrelated issues, but Gu Changsheng simply didn’t want to allow the Queen Ant to stop him so easily...
Just a moment ago, she was all aggressive, shouting and wanting to kill him, and the next moment, she says stop as if she calls the shots! Did the Queen Ant really think she was that important?
Is anything ever this easy?
"What do you want? What exactly do you want? What will it take for you to stop!!" Seeing this, the Queen Ant became even more anxious. Regardless of her status, she practically lunged towards Gu Changsheng, raised her hand to grab Gu Changsheng’s arm, and pleaded, "Stop..."
There’s no complete egg under an overturned nest!
If this ant nest gets flooded, everything will be too late!
"Hehe!" Seeing this, Gu Changsheng let out a cold laugh, stopped pouring the wine gourd according to the Queen Ant’s movements, looked at her, and slowly said, "I thought the Queen Ant would truly go all out for some baseless hatred, but didn’t expect..."
It’s nothing more than that!
She just used an ordinary wine gourd for a little fright, and the Queen Ant couldn’t handle it!
That’s right!
The wine gourd in Gu Changsheng’s hand was just an ordinary one!
It wasn’t any sort of magic artifact...
Before coming to Heaven’s Gate Temple, Gu Changsheng didn’t know about the feud between the Ant Clan and her Venerable Mother, nor did she expect the earlier confrontation. How could she have thought to prepare wine in advance?
So, it was merely to scare the Queen Ant!
Flooding Heaven’s Gate Temple wasn’t difficult for her, but at that moment, Gu Changsheng really just had that one gourd of wine, nothing else...
So...
"You! You demon!" The Queen Ant was infuriated seeing Gu Changsheng’s smug demeanor, but what could she do?
The wine gourd was still in Gu Changsheng’s hand...
The Queen Ant could only choose to compromise!
"Wouldn’t it have been better to do this from the start? Why fight the battles?" Gu Changsheng looked at the Queen Ant with a teasing smile, "My request is simple, help me open the Realm Gate, I want to take my family to the Upper Realm!"
Gu Changsheng hadn’t forgotten her purpose for coming!
She wanted to go to the Upper Realm!
Her ultimate goal for coming to this World of Beyond the Heaven was merely to find the location of the Mirror Lake Holy Land and bring back her Venerable Mother’s shadow...
"..." The Queen Ant, upon hearing this, took a deep breath and said, "Fine!"
The Holy War Ant Clan indeed held the power to open and close the Realm Gate. Over the years, there were few who sought to open the gate, and the gate wasn’t impossible to open...
However...
The Queen Ant looked at Gu Changsheng with a sneer and said coldly, "This is what you yourself want, it has nothing to do with me! There is a road to Heaven you do not take, no door to Hell yet you enter willingly. Do you think the Upper Realm is a good place? That is truly the deadly place, is staying in the Middle Realm not good? Must you go to the Upper Realm to die? Do you think just because you are the daughter of the Ancient Wilderness, you can do anything? You must understand this is the World of Beyond the Heaven, and the survival rules of that time and space are not the same!"
"Oh?" Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng was taken aback, "You know about the Upper Realm?"
The Queen Ant’s knowledge about the upper realm of the World of Beyond the Heaven didn’t surprise Gu Changsheng.
"Of course!" The Queen Ant snorted coldly, looking at Gu Changsheng, "The upper realm of the World of Beyond the Heaven has survival rules completely different from anywhere else. There, what humans take for granted becomes the most precious existence, to obtain anything, you must pay a heavy price..."
"What price?" Gu Changsheng narrowed her Phoenix Eyes upon hearing.
"Time!" The Queen Ant’s voice carried a tone of schadenfreude.
She would not go to that deadly place called the Upper Realm!
Time!
Something easily overlooked, but in the Upper Realm, it was the most fundamental thing for survival!
"Time? What do you mean?" Gu Changsheng became instantly grave and asked in a deep voice.
"In the Upper Realm, everything is measured by time; to obtain any resources or go anywhere, you must pay the price in time. To put it simply, it’s lifespan currency! When your lifespan currency is exhausted, all you can do is wait for death! Do you understand what I mean?" The Queen Ant sneered at Gu Changsheng, "Since you wish to rush to the Upper Realm to die, I certainly won’t stop you. I’ll open the Realm Gate for you now!"
Time...
Because of the Queen Ant’s words, Gu Changsheng pondered briefly but did not stop the Queen Ant’s actions...
She didn’t want to engage in a life-or-death struggle with the Holy War Ant Clan—it wouldn’t benefit anyone...
Just that according to the Queen Ant’s description, the Upper Realm seemed genuinely mysterious...
A place where everything is measured by time truly piqued Gu Changsheng’s curiosity about the survival rules of the Upper Realm!
No matter how Gu Changsheng felt, without actually going to the Upper Realm and understanding everything there, her current worries were unnecessary, and so, Gu Changsheng followed the Queen Ant’s group to the location of the Realm Gate...
To protect her clan, the Queen Ant reluctantly opened the Realm Gate under Gu Changsheng’s gaze.
Upon the opening of the Realm Gate, Gu Changsheng immediately stepped inside with Xuanyuan Mu, Baobao and Beibei, and Little Monk Bu Jie...
"Ah! Right, Queen Ant, there’s something I forgot to tell you; that wine gourd is just an ordinary wine gourd, and the wine in it can barely dampen your ant nest!"
The second before the teleportation array within the Realm Gate activated, Gu Changsheng said with a mischievous smile as she looked at the Queen Ant.
"What?!" The Queen Ant’s eyes widened in anger upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words.
Tricked!
She had been tricked!
"Gu Changsheng, you scoundrel!" the Queen Ant shouted in fury, the last words she could muster at the disappearing figures of Gu Changsheng and the others...
When had the Queen Ant ever suffered such a loss?
When had she ever been deceived like this?
She was truly enraged now!
However, Gu Changsheng and the others had already been teleported away, leaving her with no means to deal with them!
"Seeking death! Since you insist on going to the Upper Realm to find death, then let you die! Humph!" In the end, the Queen Ant could only snort coldly, turning back, while Gu Changsheng and the others...
