Chapter 662: Chapter 10: Watching and Waiting (Part 2)

Putting aside the acquisition of Game Coins and the loot obtained from fighting monsters, these are gains that will feedback to the main body. These are what he values the most.

Currently in the skill list, many abilities once thought to never be mastered are now slowly but steadily progressing. Progress bars appear vertically, filling the sub-list below completely. Every day brings new insights.

Countless clones are striving simultaneously, surpassing world lines through the ability of single appearance...

Integrating the absolutely unique mental extension, this multi-threaded feeling is extremely profound.

"Life is short, why rush? Not getting drunk, not stopping..."

Experiencing this constant sensation, perceiving countless versions of himself striving in different time and space, accumulating bit by bit and gradually improving, Gu Mo felt immensely fulfilled, humming a strange little tune as he returned to his abode.

The residence was built on a mountain, with a somewhat primitive and rugged style, its exterior still visibly constructed with massive logs.

However, inside it was different, mainly practical. Gu Mo opened the door and entered the house, greeted by a spacious and suddenly clear space.

It was like a modern laboratory, clean and tidy, with transparent glass, shadowless lamps, and floors so smooth they could be used as mirrors, etc.

During this period, Gu Mo had successively constructed places like an Alchemy Laboratory, Enchantment Room, Library, etc., and there was also a large basement, filled with piles of dolls or golems, made of wood, stone, or steel, some even being fully realistic bionic models.

In the dim basement, they stood quietly on standby like dense heaps of corpses piled mountainously.

Under the mysterious light, they appeared particularly eerie, almost resembling a morgue at first glance.

The house was somewhat cold and deserted, as the silver-haired maiden was not present, making it less lively.

Miss Shenqi also seemed to have finally come up with ideas and has started work on her Demon Realm creation plan during this period. Now, she probably had Inspiration again, directly returning to that space to begin construction according to the blueprint, possibly disappearing for a few days or suddenly popping back up quickly.

Speaking of which, progress has been quite fast.

During this period, he also took the time to glance over occasionally.

The land covered by lava and gas had already begun to cool down, stabilizing quickly under the power of the future Demon Realm God. The primitive atmosphere and the overly concentrated electron flow were also sorted out well, and the weak spots of space were efficiently mended, high-energy particle winds no longer rushing in from outer space.

The environmental transformation project is progressing favorably—

The central area, stretching thousands of miles around, already shows vast expanses of green and vitality.

Gu Mo was also very attentive to this world-creation project, seriously raising various ideas and suggestions. One being a beginner and the other a latecomer, the two were evenly matched, with their levels just right for mutual complement and interaction.

Both felt that the other’s perspectives and viewpoints had been a great help, an incredibly rare and valuable experience.

All in all, both parties were quickly advancing by absorbing each other’s experiences.

"Hmm?"

Gu Mo had just entered his Alchemy Room, skillfully placing materials on the Alchemy Platform, preparing to study their properties and test a formula he had pondered yesterday. At this moment, however, he suddenly raised an eyebrow, seeming to sense something. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

He looked around, slightly furrowing his brows.

A strange...

feeling of being watched.

The barrier in the laboratory showed no sign of being triggered, but it was not impossible for a being skilled in this to have bypassed it. Even though the Barrier Technique had improved significantly and grown stronger by the day, he still preferred to trust the inspiration brought by his heart’s intuition.

Even though this body’s Spiritual Power was far inferior to the main body’s, the essence of heart transformation was fundamentally different.

Even if he was left with only ordinary Spiritual Power, his psyche would still be extraordinary.

"Strange..."

Pondering slightly and continuing to glance around, the young man in a moon-white Daoist Robe showed confusion on his face, eventually discovering nothing. He mumbled in confusion and lowered his head to continue his work, occasionally glancing around again.

Yet indeed, nothing happened, and he soon put this matter behind him.

As time went by, not distracted anymore, he immersed himself deeply into his work, his focused spirit and energy level evident.

The hidden observer also breathed a sigh of relief; despite this person’s peculiarity, he was relatively weak from soul to body. His sensitivity was a bit unexpected, but ultimately, he had failed to notice the observation.

But just as the observer relaxed slightly, in that very instant—

A strange power erupted, disrupting rules in an instant, manipulating probability, and reinterpreting space, alarming her profoundly.

Moreover, almost simultaneously, a slender and forceful hand precisely found where the space weakened, shooting into the gap like lightning and grabbing forward!

"Ha! Caught you!"

The youth in the laboratory, unknowingly, had long since abandoned his intense focus and precise concentration. Instead, he smiled mischievously like a fox spirit who had successfully pulled off a prank, his arm shooting out like lightning, partly vanishing into thin air.

From hand to elbow, it appeared alarmingly severed, or plunged into a void!

The Ability Badge equipped on the skill bar was shared by the clone! Though the output of Power of Lies was somewhat decreased compared to the main body, its nature remained the core power of the God of Mischief, deceiving hearts, and manipulating the world at his fingertips!

"Huh!"

Despite his swift and precise calculation, he grabbed at empty air, causing him to exclaim in surprise.

The concept of relative distance and direction seemed to warp and distort in that instant.

The power held by the other seemed to be more than just the Power of Space?

Gu Mo did not give up; the Power of Lies freely invaded the opponent’s domain, forcibly altering reality and manipulating probability, seeking to keep control firmly on his side. In just a moment, both sides intensely faced off on the rules level multiple times.

The next moment, he felt a fluffy sensation, seemingly familiar but not giving it much thought.

And a cry of surprise came from the space opposite...

Caught it!

He laughed mischievously and gave a sudden yank, pulling a figure out of the air as if performing a magic trick...

A fox demon?!

"Lord Zi, what are you doing... eh?!"

The fox demon maiden with fox ears and nine tails appeared stunned, seemingly unable to react completely. After being pulled out, she staggered, knocking over the Alchemy Platform and a pile of surrounding items, creating a series of crashing sounds.
