Zhong Shenxiu's mind moved.

The power from the black sky completely dispelled the strange force.

This made Deceit City instantly become illusory.

A huge Dharma Body stepped in front of the clock tower, in the darkness, it seemed as though countless mouths opened wide.

The essence of Deceit City was previously fixed by an ill-omened umbrella.

Even, it had already begun to destruct.

Now facing the might of the Dharma Body, it was even harder to resist.

On the clock face, the large hour and minute hands tried to move, but were tightly jammed by the black umbrella and eventually fell into the darkness.

Sharp fangs, bloodthirsty and marrow-sucking...

Creak, crack...

The sounds, far from pleasant, were even bone-chilling, nightmare-inducing chewing noises that echoed through every corner of Deceit City...

...

"Run!"

Han Bingjie, carrying Yue Qin, had only this thought.

Unsure of how long they had run, his expression changed.

Because the two had already run out of the city limits, arriving at a wilderness.

"It was that simple to escape from Deceit City?"

Han Bingjie was stunned, he turned back to look.

Only to see that the originally towering city had long since vanished without a trace, leaving only a deep and serene darkness.

The range tainted by darkness continued to shrink, as if constantly contracting inward.

Finally, it completely disappeared.

This bizarre scene left Han Bingjie's eyes wide open, utterly unable to comprehend what had happened.

Moments later, deep in the alternate space, a person slowly walked out.

Dressed in casual clothes, holding a large black umbrella.

It was Zhong Shenxiu!

"Brother Gui!"

Han Bingjie was overjoyed and immediately went up to him, "I just knew you would be fine. What about the corporate building?"

Zhong Shenxiu showed a smile. "From now on, there are neither companies nor Deceit City… you are also free now."

Han Bingjie listened, spellbound.

Although expected, when this moment truly arrived, his heart could not help but be filled with myriad emotions.

As for Yue Qin beside him, her tears splattered...

...

Moments later.

A Spirit Car drove through the alternate space, continuously moving towards the shallower layers and the real world.

The passengers in the car were only the two familiar faces, Han Bingjie and Yue Qin.

As for the other surviving employees and others? Zhong Shenxiu simply couldn't bother with them.

And although Deceit City had disappeared, this place was still an alternate space, a difficult place for ordinary people to survive.

Even without the repression of Deceit City, more strange entities might wander in, bringing terror and danger.

Deep in the alternate space was a place where even the strange could get lost.

Maybe none of this group could survive.

But what did any of this have to do with him?

Zhong Shenxiu, while controlling the direction, was sorting through the gains of this time.

[Name: Gui Yi (Zhong Shenxiu)]

[Ghost Immortal Reincarnation Skill: Level Six]

[Heavenly Show Points: 10789 (33%)]

[Ten Thousand Doors: Can Be Opened]

...

"Um, the Ghost Immortal Reincarnation Skill was only cultivated to the sixth level... The rationality values accumulated by the two big deceptions were indeed very substantial, and I even felt they could push me into the seventh level at once, but summoning the power of the Dharma Body without a fixed method, the contamination was also quite terrible... With such a confrontation, the remainder that could help me cultivate to such a realm was already not bad."

"Besides, the company's big deception was just so-so, but the main body of Deceit City, the bell tower, seemed to help me cultivate a long-coveted Divine Skill — Twelve Yuan Chen Universe Divine Light!"

This was one of the Supreme Dragon and Tiger Sect's highest Divine Skills.

Even Zhong Shenxiu had not reached the threshold of the Divine Power Realm.

However, after he seized the restarting capability of Deceit City, it felt greatly inspiring.

In fact, this wasn't exactly cultivating a Divine Skill, but rather seizing the restarting ability of Deceit City, which was combined with part of the essence of the Twelve Yuan Chen Universe Divine Light, forming his own mixed Divine Skill.

However, what could be called a Divine Skill in the Divine Power Realm, upon reaching the Primordial Spirit and Dharma Image, all kinds of Divine Skills could be completely refined into Divine Light and Demonic Light.

In comparison, the power increased significantly, definitely far surpassing Zhang Taiyi.

It was only slightly inferior to that Reincarnated Immortal.

As for the specific effects and limitations, they still needed to be slowly explored and tested.

...

D City.

Amidst blaring horns,

a taxi slowly pulled over to the edge of a suburban road.

Yue Qin and Han Bingjie got out of the car, looking at the real world with complex and unspeakable emotions in their hearts.

"Mr. Gui, my brother, and Chu He... Is there really no way to bring them back to life?"

Yue Qin looked at Zhong Shenxiu, her eyes filled with pleading.

"No way anymore..."

Zhong Shenxiu indicated helplessly.

The deaths of Yue Shan and Chu He this time, followed by the destruction of Deceit City, which could not be restarted, indeed meant they were truly dead.

In fact, to say there was no salvation was not necessarily true.

If he was to go to Deceit City and try restarting, perhaps they could be saved.

But there was a paradox in that, which was that his restarting ability's core was seized from Deceit City — if he were to rewind time to before Yue Shan's death, Deceit City would also be 'revived'. Would the restarting ability still exist?

Or would it directly fail to restart?

But Zhong Shenxiu didn't even want to try.

Simply put, Yue Qin did not carry that much sway!

Han Bingjie also sensed something was amiss and quickly tugged at Yue Qin's sleeve, then smiled at Zhong Shenxiu, "Thanks to Brother Gui, if you have any commands in the future, just say the word, and this life of mine, Xiao Han, is yours."

After all, Zhong Shenxiu had saved him too many times, when it came down to it, he was still at an advantage.

"Hm... you two live well, although... after encountering the supernatural, wanting to return to a peaceful life might be difficult, but it's nothing serious..."

Zhong Shenxiu waved his hand.

As people who had encountered the supernatural, they were much more likely to encounter similar events in the future.

If they were ordinary people, they might live in constant fear or seek protection from the foundation.

But they were not ordinary people.

Having survived numerous assignments, even now, Yue Qin was capable enough to handle herself, especially with the remaining supernatural items in her possession, making dealing with ordinary supernatural events not too troubling.

As for Han Bingjie, his strength was even more robust, after all, he had Deceit Skin.

This Deceit Skin could be used like a transplant item, providing great abilities to the host while having relatively minor side effects.

Crucially, it was a supernatural item, not a concomitant of a transplant, not needing to suffer from continuous supernatural erosion!

That way, as long as he limited its use in the future or even stopped using it, Han Bingjie's lifespan would be like that of an ordinary person.

But if Chu He and Yue Shan had survived, it might not have been long before they needed to seek methods to prolong their lives.

After all, the erosion of the supernatural was irreversible.

...

"Um, we will definitely live well."

Han Bingjie nodded and agreed, then with some reluctance said, "Brother Gui, what about you?"

"Me?"

Zhong Shenxiu pulled out a cigarette packet with a weathered face and lit a cigarette, "The company went bankrupt, and the security guard was laid off... Thinking about it now, I still feel some regrets, as a place where one could eat and drink for free is truly hard to find..."

"Me? Maybe I'll be a live streamer to make quick money, or perhaps change careers to be a taxi driver, who knows?"

"Maybe in the future, I might even start a school and become the principal of an exorcism school..."
