18th Floor.
Yue Guanshan poked out a head and looked up. There were five people up there.
One of them was wearing a long gown; it was precisely the Alliance Vice Leader. The other four people...
When the four people saw Yue Guanshan sneakily revealing half a head.
Their hearts were startled.
In Hell, a sentence had once circulated: Superego Yue Guanshan.
The [Yue Guanshan] in this, not only referred to the Superego being as difficult to cross as a mountain pass, but also referred to...
This person, Yue Guanshan.
Just like Failing the Imperial Examination (falling behind Sun Shan), Sun Shan was the last place, so falling behind Sun Shan ant not making the list.
This person Yue Guanshan was relatively strange. Logically speaking, he had the Superego ntal State.
But, Seven-Star Superego ntal State, this could already no longer be described with 'genius'.
It would definitely not be tolerated by Hell. After all, geniuses are not long-lived.
According to rumors, Yue Guanshan was the person with the most talent of his era. At Seven-Star he could already feel the existence of Loss of Self. Thus he killed the Superego trigger without hesitation. But it was still that saying: geniuses are not tolerated by Hell.
When he killed the trigger and was being swallowed by emotions, about to lose his self, soone popped out from who knows where, and took his trigger...
And resurrected it!
Seeing this scene, Yue Guanshan's ntality completely exploded. He could only forcibly lose his self, still relying on his natural talent to prove his Dao to the Superego. But the problem was that his Loss of Self was incomplete. This resulted in his Superego also being incomplete, belonging to a half-baked level.
Of course, he was stronger than a Half-Step Superego, but weaker than a true Superego.
Just like in fantasy novels, if proving the Dao to Superego is an Immortal, then Yue Guanshan's situation belonged to a Rogue Immortal who failed ascension.
In Hell, this was called: Ghost Immortal.
Under normal circumstances, players could only touch the threshold of Superego when they were Nine-Star.
Therefore, Nine-Star Ghost Immortals were many.
Eight-Star Ghost Immortals were very few. Simply because at Eight-Star, the vast majority of players were unable to touch the Superego threshold, let alone an incomplete Loss of Self to forcibly prove the Dao to Superego?
But what could be certain was that Eight-Star Ghost Immortals were geniuses among geniuses.
And as for Seven-Star Ghost Immortals, on the surface, there was only this one player, Yue Guanshan.
Hell had a Downward Compatibility chanism; Seven-Star could match with Five-Star players.
One could imagine the gold content of Yue Guanshan, this Seven-Star Ghost Immortal. Let's put it this way, no matter how much of a genius you were, it was impossible to complete the Superego Heart Cultivation at Five-Star.
Then, a Seven-Star Ghost Immortal hunting a Five-Star player was simply a certain kill, without any room for resistance. Even a single glance could insta-kill an entire Five-Star party. Just the aura alone could scare Five-Star players into having weak legs and numb muscles.
It wasn't over yet.
A Seven-Star Ghost Immortal was often a genius where only one would appear in an era. He definitely also had a second or third kind of Heart Cultivation. It was even possible that the ntal State of the other Heart Cultivations was even higher than the Supre Perfect Enlightennt Heart Cultivation.
Of course, the above excluded the existence of super perverts like Floor Masters.
After all, Floor Masters were at a minimum Five-Star, all of them being of the Superego ntal State. They were super geniuses who had experienced the baptism of war. Naturally, they were sowhat more perverted than the geniuses of the [Peaceful] period.
The four people couldn't figure out exactly what kind of Five-Star player would make the Vice Leader utilize this Nuclear Bomb, Yue Guanshan.
The four secretly said to themselves: This is simply not leaving that Five-Star player even a little bit of a way to survive ah.
These four people were all Seven-Star, and were all of the Half-Step Superego ntal State. They seemingly had about the sa talent as Yue Guanshan back in the day, but...
In reality, they were far off.
Yue Guanshan advanced triumphantly along the way, and not long after ranking up to Seven-Star, he began to slay the Superego.
And as for these four people, they had been stuck at Seven-Star for many years. Relying on accumulation, they finally sensed the existence of Loss of Self.
But in Hell, wanting to achieve Transcendence-Loss of Self wasn't as simple as imagined.
First of all, if your Loss of Self trigger was a person, you had best pray that this person was in Hell, and not in the Living World.
Just this one rule alone could completely block ninety-nine percent of Half-Step Superego players.
After all, if the trigger was a good person, it would be impossible for them to co to Hell. You would be unable to lose your self, forever unable to cultivate the Superego Heart.
If your trigger was living perfectly well in the Living World, this situation was slightly better. At least there was sothing to hope for, hoping for him/her to die, hoping for him/her to co to Hell earlier.
Without a doubt, these four people belonged to the players with no hope of cultivating the Superego Heart. They would be stalled at the Half-Step Superego ntal State for their entire lives, therefore choosing to remain stuck at Seven-Star, not daring to rank up.
"Co up." The long-gowned Youth glanced at Yue Guanshan who popped out half a head and said.
When Yue Guanshan sat down, three pieces of paper appeared out of thin air in the hands of the five people.
"On the docunts is the information of your hunting targets this ti."
Hearing this, the five people picked up the docunts, read through them carefully, and couldn't help but frown.
[Na]: Chen Ran.
[Star Rating]: Three-Star.
[ntal State]: Half-Step Superego.
[Skill]: Eternal Kingdom.
[Effect]: Forbids players from using Skills for one hour.
[Na]: Qiu Yinong.
[Star Rating]: Three-Star.
[ntal State]: Half-Step Ego.
[Skill]: Wheel of Ti.
[Effect]: Can reset ti by five minutes. Can choose to discard the lie to use the Skill, or can choose to speak the command: "I lied" to use the Skill. Note: mories will also be temporarily reset.
[Na]: Lin Xuan.
[ntal State]: Id.
[Star Rating]: Three-Star.
[Skill]: Has six Skills, seven different effects.
[Effect]: Can transport people from six spaces...
"Yoho, this one called Lin Xuan, his Skill effects are truly nurous, written densely on a piece of paper. Worthy of being acclaid as the most perfect Spatial Skill in Hell." Yue Guanshan stroked his chin: "No, he wouldn't be able to manufacture five of , right? Then wouldn't his Skill be useless in front of ?"
Yes, the Superego ntal State could immunize against Superego Skills. Simply put, in front of Yue Guanshan, aside from True Self Skills, certain effects of other Skills were useless against him.
For example, Qiu Yinong's Wheel of Ti.
It could reset ti, but it couldn't make Yue Guanshan temporarily lose his mory.
A Skill like Lin Xuan's, to Yue Guanshan, was simply delivering warmth.
Originally, one Yue Guanshan was already a dinsional strike for Chen Ran and the others. Six Yue Guanshans, Chen Ran and the others fundantally wouldn't even be able to play.
"These three people will rank up to Five-Star before the next Instance matchmaking. When the ti cos, soone will help directionally match you to them."
"Among the three, the one you need to pay attention to the most is that one called Chen Ran. It's best to insta-kill him with one strike; don't give him any opportunity to break through his ntal State." The long-gowned Youth exhorted.
Actually, there was no need for him to say it, the five people all knew this point. A person who was already of the Half-Step Superego ntal State at Three-Star—for this kind of person, any single setback could be the turning point to break through their ntal State. An insta-kill with one strike was the best choice.
Although on the docunts, the hunting targets were all Three-Star, which were Newbies to them.
But from beginning to end, the five people had never underestimated any of the three.
The reason was very simple. Being able to dispatch a Hunter Team with a luxurious lineup like their five-man group had already explained the problem.
A lion uses its full strength even when wrestling a rabbit, and arrogance is the source of destruction. They were exceptionally clear about this principle.
"Oh right, there's also one called Jiang Zhe in their party. This person has nine lives and you can't kill him. He was also sent over by the Leader, so you can just ignore him. Lin Xuan is just an accessory; he can be killed or not, but you must kill the other two."
"Besides you, the Deceiver Alliance will also dispatch a party. However, they might be subjected to interference. It's unknown whether they can be matched to Chen Ran's party." The long-gowned Youth said with a frown.
The five people were startled.
Great, so apparently feeling that a dinsional strike wasn't enough, they also had to dispatch a second luxurious lineup party to execute the hunting quest together.
This was just like an ordinary person in the mortal realm violating the Heavenly Laws; the ones hunting him weren't Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, but Prehistoric Sages. Furthermore, to be on the safe side, it was two Prehistoric Sages together hunting this ordinary person.
"The Leader isn't going to resolve the interference?" Yue Guanshan asked with a frown.
"So balances cannot be broken, otherwise it will cause struggles between higher levels."
Simply put, The All-Knowing and Almighty could have players who were two Star Ratings higher than Chen Ran, and who were not Floor Masters, go hunt Chen Ran and the others. But on certain events, they couldn't intervene in this kind of chanism of Hell. Once they intervened, The Trio would also intervene.
You make your party be able to directionally match with Chen Ran, then I can make your party never be able to match with Chen Ran.
So, regarding the so-called interference, The All-Knowing and Almighty wouldn't make a move to resolve it.
Just at this mont, the long-gowned Youth frowned slightly and slowly closed his eyes.
Not long after.
The long-gowned Youth opened his eyes. With a shift of his will, a fourth docunt appeared in the hands of the five people.
"This is an analysis regarding Chen Ran's ntal State passed to by the Deceiver Alliance. The Deceiver Alliance synthesized Chen Ran's experiences while alive and reached a conclusion: He has already long since completed the Heart Cultivation of The Highest Goodness is Like Water [Happiness]; it's just that he doesn't know or doesn't want to admit it."
It had to be said, The All-Knowing had already exposed all of Chen Ran's secrets.
The five people including Yue Guanshan read the docunt and nodded.
"While alive, he was swallowed by emotions. Before losing his self, he chose to deny that troll-like and lazy self, thereby transforming into a man of action possessing the School of Military Montum, completely opposite to his previous personality. Tsk tsk tsk, this kind of operation, this kind of transformation, this buddy is truly outrageously perverted ah." Yue Guanshan clicked his tongue in wonder, but this kind of trump card, to him, was also just a slightly larger ant.
As everyone knows, anyone who has been swallowed by emotions only has two outcos: one is completing the Superego Heart Cultivation, and two is having their heart ridian damaged.
But, in the world while alive, there was no concept of Heart Cultivation. Logically speaking, Chen Ran only had one outco: his heart ridian being damaged.
But, this guy actually chose to evade heart ridian damage by denying himself and transforming into a completely opposite personality.
This kind of operation is truly slick!
Figuring this point out, Yue Guanshan put away the docunts, crossed his legs, and asked:
"Remuneration?"
Although he was one of The Almighty's Reserve Teammates, his value was placed right there. Therefore, when receiving this kind of certain-kill situation, he had the qualifications to demand a higher price.
The reason was very simple. If you killed , who would help you certainly kill Chen Ran?
A Seven-Star Half-Step Superego party might be able to do it; it could even be said that there was a ninety-nine percent probability they could do it, but that was still only ninety-nine percent and not one hundred percent.
But if there was the existence of Yue Guanshan, this Seven-Star Ghost Immortal, it would beco one hundred percent.
Therefore he could ask for a higher price.
"If successful, for the other four people, the Leader will bestow Reincarnation upon you."
As the words fell, the other four Half-Step Superego players instantly stood up from their chairs, staring fixedly at the long-gowned Youth. Their breathing was rapid, and in their eyes was an indescribable look of wild joy.
It was said before that although these four people had the Half-Step Superego ntal State, they didn't have a trigger in Hell. Therefore, they would forever be unable to cultivate to the true Superego ntal State.
If the Leader bestowed reincarnation upon them, that would an starting from zero. That is, erasing their ntal State and Star Rating, starting from One-Star.
Then, they would be able to cultivate their own triggers themselves.
Simply put, starting from One-Star, forming a party with other players, selecting a teammate, pouring all one's emotions into them, sharing life and death, showing utter devotion to each other, never abandoning each other—then it was very possible to cultivate them into one's own Loss of Self trigger. When needing to cultivate the Superego Heart, killing this teammate who you poured all your emotions into would very likely cause you to be swallowed by emotions, thereby losing your self.
For example, i Zhixu; she cultivated Li Chengying, this Superego Loss of Self trigger, through this kind of thod.
How could this kind of remuneration not make the four people's hearts race? After all, the Superego ntal State was the endpoint for them; it was Transcendence.
Let's put it this way, not to ntion definitely bestowing reincarnation, even if there was just a chance for the Leader to bestow reincarnation, it could make countless players of the Half-Step Superego ntal State go crazy for it. Even if it was letting them slaughter each other to only leave one, they would also unhesitatingly slaughter to snatch the quota.
Crossing that step was Transcendence.
If they couldn't cross over, they could only struggle bitterly under this malicious chanism of Hell.
Therefore, the vast majority of players with the Half-Step Superego ntal State were very crazy, and it was that kind of extre yet rational craziness.
The long-gowned Youth looked at Yue Guanshan: "If Chen Ran is killed, the Leader will personally make a move to help you complete the true Superego Heart Cultivation. At the sa ti, you can choose to detach from the Liar-Slayer Alliance, and you will not suffer the pursuit of the two alliances. If you want to be a Floor Master, naturally that is also possible."
Yue Guanshan raised his eyebrows. Very obviously, such a generous remuneration moved his heart.
Soone like Si Jincheng, a so-called alternate Floor Master, actually didn't have much of a chance to beco a Floor Master. After all, players at the level of a Floor Master had a very hard ti dying even if they wanted to. Since they couldn't die, alternate players naturally wouldn't have the chance to beco a Floor Master.
But, among the remuneration for killing Chen Ran, he could actually directly beco a Floor Master, becoming one of the Chess Players of the entire Hell. It had to be said that this remuneration was already at the maximum limit. Not to ntion it would also help him perfect his Superego ntal State.
"Sure." Yue Guanshan put away his previous cynical expression and nodded heavily.
From beginning to end, he never asked who among Chen Ran's trio was the True Self Player. This kind of matter he couldn't know, nor should he know. The only thing he knew was that in the next Instance, he had to treat the opponents as Ten-Star players. Even if the other party was only Five-Star, he also had to go all out.
