Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely Chapter 2038 - 1083: The Golden Emperor’s Flaw (Part 2)

Does Lu Ya intend to aid the Green Emperor?

An idea suddenly sparked in Tao Yu’s mind.

Could this be a fresh Other Shore manifestation stepping in to restore balance?

Yet it makes no difference. The Green Emperor hasn’t attained the Other Shore yet, and even if he had, snatching the Investiture of the Gods from Lu Ya’s grasp remains pure ’destiny’!

"Have you finished your tasks here? Heading back to the past early is an exceptional chance, rare even for Creation Power."

Having pierced the reality of Medicine King Buddha’s Nirvana and rebirth into the Green Emperor’s authentic body, Tao Yu shifted his gaze toward the Dharma Bodies that had arrived from the shore.

"Right now, we only wish for a secure return."

Meng Qi gazed at Tao Yu, sensing he possessed a solution, considering the waves from Tao Yu’s deeds had swept them to this place.

"You will indeed make it back without harm, yet this presents an opportunity as well..."

Tao Yu cast a meaningful look at Meng Qi as he spoke.

"Race against the clock."

Tao Yu’s statement caused Meng Qi to hesitate—what did racing against time mean?

"Do you mean I should cultivate further here to gain more time ahead? Ordinary progress would merely reach Heavenly Immortal level at best..."

As Demon Buddha’s piece, Meng Qi lacks his own projection, rendering All Selves Unite nearly impossible.

"Relax, I know the path well, and you hold an edge—you can seize the Demon Buddha’s imprint."

Tao Yu built everything from nothing, but Meng Qi gets to pull off a clever trick.

"The Demon Saint and Demon Buddha clash without end, with the Demon Clan perpetually hunting the Demon Buddha, holding vast intelligence on him. I’ve forged a pact with the future Demon Saint Spear that works even now—grab my sealed decree and proceed..."

Tao Yu inscribed a sealed decree before flinging it toward Meng Qi.

The Three Pure Ones pursue simplicity and void, crafting the Dao Fruit, aligning perfectly with Tao Yu’s aims.

Previously, though, the Three Pure Ones granted me cultivation methods, piling on kindnesses that demand return.

Aiding Meng Qi to swiftly escape Demon Buddha’s grasp and boost his power serves my own intent while settling karma—ideal in every way...

...

Rumble~

Brilliant lights burst across the heavens, countless visions unfold, as the once-still historical river casts illusory projections once more, shocking the entire realm.

Within the Divine Capital, Tao Yu’s primary body savored exquisite wine while admiring Daji’s alluring dance draped in sheer silk, his eyebrow arching faintly.

"You’re working hard indeed—are you guarding the Dao too? Such deep distrust in me?"

Tao Yu shot a glance at the Golden Emperor nearby.

"Bound by the Three Pure Ones’ karma as their vassal, I dare not risk any mistakes."

"You’ve reached the Other Shore; even karma deficits can be mended. So you’re truly fixated on the Dao Fruit as well."

Tao Yu curved his lips into a faint smile.

Through prolonged intimate exchanges with the Golden Emperor, he grasped her nature far better now.

I might simply refuse to aid Meng Qi or settle karma—in modern slang, ’try suing me then.’

Tao Yu, however, always heeds his inner voice, handling matters effortlessly without obstruction.

The Golden Emperor stands apart!

As the lofty Other Shore Tianyi, pride and elegance etch deep into her very essence.

Still, to secure alliance with me, she humbles herself to this degree!

Even after I’ve helped Meng Qi, she watches silently—a step beyond her usual demeanor!

Greater ambitions surely lurk beneath.

She seeks to fully sever the Three Pure Ones’ karma!

Such urgency in repayment hints at grander schemes ahead, likely—or definitely—pitting her against the Three Pure Ones!

"As master observes, I merely wish to avoid endless debts of karma. With my pawn now protected by your close ally, clearing it first smooths the path for later confrontations..."

The Golden Emperor’s response rang true and steadfast.

Tao Yu nodded in agreement.

"Your reasoning holds, but as an Ancient already, it fits too—is Gu Xiaosang truly your Dao Mark..."

Tao Yu eyed the Golden Emperor’s lovely face, then hooked her chin with a finger.

"Your devoted service merits reward: I’ll slay her to free you, then revive her via outer paths, perfecting everything."

Hailing from outside the True Realm, Tao Yu commands myriad Abyss arts to wipe Gu Xiaosang from existence across the True Realm, only to rebirth her from the Abyss—resolving every concern!

Upon hearing Tao Yu, the Golden Emperor’s seductive poise faltered briefly, her radiant gaze holding his steadily before easing back to serenity.

"You’ve got me—unleashing Abyss might directly is just too much."

The Golden Emperor’s extreme submission and pliancy stemmed not only from ruthless goal-chasing but also growing insight into Tao Yu’s temperament.

Despite her supreme rank, she harbors the rare emotions most Tianyi forgo!

Self-interest plays a role too: delight him successfully, and he offers real partnership and aid.

In this scenario, the ’cost’ proves remarkably low.

Just surface pretense—the Golden Emperor believes many others would opt similarly if granted the chance!

Even if the Other Shore figure were male, it’d hold true.

The plan’s chief weakness lay in Tao Yu’s surprising eagerness to aid a friend’s Dao Mark pawn.

Yet Gu Xiaosang’s bond with Meng Qi counters that flaw perfectly in temperament, leaving the Golden Emperor utterly confident.
