The Immortal Ship was more like a giant commercial trading cargo ship that could travel between different maps to exchange resources.
In addition, the Immortal Ship also had its own professional production facilities like the Workshop of Heavenly Crafts and the Alchemy Division.
Specifically, the Workshop of Heavenly Crafts had so many skilled craftsmen.
Just looking at the mass-produced Truth Cannons showed that its production capacity was practically maxed out.
“It could even be used as a second Chinese Creation factory besides Kunlun.”
And if they lacked resources during the production process, they could directly fly to other maps to “get stock” without even spending money.
Ahem, they’d just be “gifts from nature.”
Furthermore, from a safety perspective, if the Immortal Ship encountered danger, it could dive and flee at any time without worrying about losses.
The Immortal Ship also served as a transportation hub for many S-rank maps.
Hadn’t even the Cloudsea Chamber of Commerce opened a branch on it?
There were many foreign merchants from various maps on the ship.
Among these people, there might be important figures from other S-rank maps hidden away.
Her identity as the “Xianzhou General” was practically a universal pass!
No matter what maps she visited in the future, she would be able to get around.
She was now a person with status.
On the communication channel, George and the others had gone silent, clearly starting to devote themselves fully to the work of collecting resources.
Su Fu looked at the crowd in the Underworld.
Most Test Takers were still bitterly struggling through the stages, but those old schemers like Huangfu Yun were nowhere to be seen.
“Did they jump ship and run? Or are they hiding somewhere?”
As she was thinking, many Test Takers had already fought their way to the third level of hell.
“Whoa!” Su Fu couldn’t help but be surprised, “Are they that capable?”
One had to admit that the quality of the Test Takers in this Joint Exam was a level higher than before.
Plus, although she had taken out two maps, she hadn’t actually done much to the candidates themselves.
So, these candidates were not only full of Divine Power but also numerous.
Now that they were coordinating well, they were clearly getting the hang of it.
“Not bad, not bad,” Su Fu was even more satisfied.
‘Please maintain this speed!’
At the same time, Shen Yan had been broadcasting to the StarNet since the Howling Celestial Dog swallowed the Solar Barque.
Once the highly impactful footage was released, the popularity exploded immediately.
[Jump quickly, Achilles! If you don’t jump, you’ll end up in the dog’s stomach!]
[They jumped! They jumped! sigh-of-relief.jpg]
[Wait… where did they jump to??]
[Holy crap, they landed straight in the Eighteen Levels of Hell?]
[My god! This wave was jumping straight from the dog’s mouth into hell? So no matter what they choose, it’s wrong?]
[Wait… Su Fu is making them go to… Clear the map?]
[The Alliance is ganging up on Su Fu, but she’s using them as free labor and sending them straight to break through the Eighteen Levels of Hell?]
[I’m stunned. Who exactly is the hunter and who is the prey?]
[Unbelievable! Simply unbelievable!]
[Not only free labor, they also have to clear stages in a 007 grind. They can’t stop at all!]
[My Holy Knight is currently reciting the Bible while hacking at Yin Chai. Su Fu, are you even human?]
[Olaf is as tired as a dead dog. My god, it’s too miserable!]
[The Divine Summoners of the Indian Shiva are probably regretting this to death now. They could have been meditating on yoga mats, but now they have to fight monsters in hell.]
[The descendants of Ra from the Egyptian Pantheon are crying. The Solar Barque is
[LMAO, look at what the test takers on the Immortal Ship’s side are doing—they’re just stripping everything bare!]
[Now look at the Underworld side—it’s 24/7 labor! This just shows how important it is to choose the right team!]
[Seriously, the other maps have practically been looted clean, while those people are still working like dogs in the Underworld. It’s heartbreaking.]
[This is too cruel! Directly raiding their home base, how shameless!!!]
[The Divine Pantheon test takers are tired as dogs in the Underworld, and Su Fu’s teammates are tired as dogs from hauling resources…]
However, amid these discussions, a few different bullet comments quietly popped up:
[Does no one else think that Chinese Immortal Ship… is beautiful?]
As soon as this message was sent, many people immediately replied: [Beauty is an understatement! It’s drifting through a sea of clouds, radiating Heavenly Immortal Energy. It’s absolutely stunning.]
[It’s not rugged and mighty like the Greek Pantheon, nor is it wild and fierce like the Norse Pantheon. Instead, it’s filled with an ethereal, agile, and immortal aura.]
[When it descends, it’s like a curtain of heavenly silk amidst swirling mist. When it harvests a map, it’s like a giant whale swallowing waves, swift and decisive. I really want one! It perfectly hits my aesthetic! Who can make a custom one? Please contact me!]
In the footage, the Immortal Ship was traveling through a sea of clouds.
Mist swirled around its hull, and its sails stretched with the wind.
The entire ship looked as if it had sailed out from a land of immortals, not a thing of the mortal realm.
[This ship truly represents the pinnacle of China’s aesthetic. It has an indescribable immortal feeling that is completely different from all the other Divine Systems.]
[And its abilities are just ridiculous! It can refine elixirs, forge equipment, engage in cross-map trade, and even dive underwater to escape.]
[I really want to ride that Immortal Ship! Can we go on a tour?]
[…Don’t let its beauty make you forget that it’s an S-rank map!]
As the hype for the Immortal Ship escalated, the netizens’ discussion began to shift:
[Wait… haven’t you noticed that the Chinese Pantheon is a bit too strong?]
[From the Nine Heavens of the Heavenly Court down to the Eighteen Levels of Hell, the map is vast and all-encompassing?]
[Yes, yes! The entire map is terrifyingly large!]
[And it seems like the system is very complete?]
[I think the key is the internal logic. Look at the punishment mechanism of the Underworld; it’s so detailed.]
[Exactly! The Paradise Pantheon test takers weren’t punished because they hadn’t committed crimes.]
[Right! I wanted to say that earlier. This Underworld reincarnation cycle actually rewards good and punishes evil!]
[And as long as you make a mistake, there are detailed records and corresponding punishments. It’s so satisfying!]
[Compared to the vague sentencing standards of the Greek Underworld, the Chinese Underworld has very clear rules and regulations.]
[I remember the Greek Underworld. Aside from Tartarus punishing major criminals, ordinary souls just wander the Asphodel Meadows pointlessly.]
[The Norse dead either go to Valhalla or the land of ice and mist, depending entirely on how they died rather than their behavior.]
[Egyptian afterlife judgment looks at behavior too, but it doesn’t have such fine layers as the Chinese one…]
[The other Divine Systems’ underworlds are like simplified versions, or even rough drafts!]
[The Indian underworld only has seven layers. In comparison, China’s Eighteen Levels of Hell is like a fully furnished, deluxe package version!]
At that moment, a bolded bullet comment scrolled past: [By the way… did you guys notice that Su Fu actually has an official position in the Underworld?]
[I looked through all the previous records about her and realized this position was actually obtained in the earlier Chang’an Exam Paper!]
[What the hell?! Chang’an is a mortal map, right? Can an official position be used across maps?!]
Someone immediately posted a screenshot of the part of the Chang’an Map related to the Underworld.
[Look, there’s an Underworld in the Chang’an Map too! Some test takers even saw the gates of the Eighteen Levels of Hell back then! Good heavens!]
[In other words, the Chinese Pantheon is so massive that these maps are all connected? Even the institutions are universal?]
[The Heavenly Court recognizes the Underworld, the mortal world connects to the Youming, and even the exam maps follow the same system!]
[Oh my god, this is too shocking! My scalp is tingling! Doesn’t that mean the Chinese Pantheon might be an incredibly vast and perfected Mythos civilization?]
[It’s no wonder they said that map was only part of the world Su Fu was building.]
[Even if different maps recognize each other? It’s a complete worldview?]
[Doesn’t that mean it’s even more complete than the Greek Pantheon, which has the most gods?]
[The Greek Pantheon has many gods, but the system isn’t complete. There are many loopholes, contradictions, and messy timelines.]
[For example, both Apollo and Helios are called sun gods, with overlapping authorities.]
[The rules of the Underworld are also very vague. Sometimes the dead can return to the mortal world through pleading or bribery…]
[To be honest, seeing just this little bit of the Chinese Pantheon makes me feel like there must be a massive worldview supporting it for it to be so self-consistent and interconnected. It’s like a vast epic!]
[It’s like the iceberg theory—only a small part is visible above the sea, but the volume underneath is actually much larger!]
[The Immortal Ship and the Underworld we see now are probably just a tiny fraction of this system.]
There were also skeptical netizens: [Is it really that exaggerated? If you want to talk about the strength of a Divine System, you have to look at the creation myths, right? Can Nuwa compare to the Norse Ymir whose corpse became all things?]
[We can only say that we don’t know Nuwa’s story yet.]
[Wait, even if we don’t know Nuwa, look at Su Fu right now.]
[She’s crushing the entire field, one against seven! Chinese Mythos is thrashing the other seven, and she’s doing it as easily as playing a game!]
[Isn’t that more direct than creation legends?]
[Honestly, I put myself in the shoes of the Test Takers in the Exam Hall, and it’s been nothing but despair from the start!]
[She started by taking out the strongest, Olympus, immediately intimidating the entire Exam Hall. Since then, every Divine Pantheon map has lived in her shadow!]
[Then she went and took out the Norse map, a total sweep!]
[All the test takers are discussing Su Fu, feeling dread, shock, and fear because of her, even being forced to unite to deal with her!]
[But the result of the Alliance? The entire multi-pantheon army is working for her… I don’t even want to say it.]
[This is too ridiculous! Once the Chinese Pantheon steps onto the field, the game is just over?]
[By the gods, but putting myself in Su Fu’s shoes feels so good!]
[One person from China overturning the entire Alliance—I wouldn’t even dare to dream that big…]
[I finally understand now why China wasn’t well-known but was always called one of the Eight Divine Systems.]
[I even suspect the Chinese Pantheon was so low-key precisely because once it enters the fray, no one else can play anymore!]
[Look at Su Fu; she’s not even on the same level as the others. Her style is completely different!]
[The Immortal Ship loots wherever it goes, she hits whoever she wants, and she’s playing everyone like dogs…]
[Goddess, please play with me!]
[…? Where did this one come from? Kick them out!]
Just then, a long post analyzing the Chinese map surged to the top of the trending topics:
[I just saw someone say the Chinese Mythos map is vast, and I didn’t quite believe it, so I went to look for information. Look at what I found! It’s too shocking!]
[The information is all hidden in the details of the previous maps!]
[The Chinese Pantheon doesn’t just have the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, and the mortal world—these three realms are all fitted perfectly into the same system!]
[After humans die, they enter the Underworld. The virtuous might be transcended and go to the Heavenly Court to become an Immortal, while the Heavenly Court Immortals perform duties for mortals…]
[Being able to achieve this level of detail is simply incredible!]
[Such a massive and self-consistent system is no accident. it requires a very long period of cultural accumulation and fusion.]
[One can imagine how dazzlingly bright it must have been in its most glorious era!]
[I’ll make a bold statement: if the Chinese Pantheon truly rises, the other Divine Systems can just end the game. They’re all little brothers.]
Once these comments came out, many people immediately asked: [Wow! So strong! How can one believe in the Chinese Pantheon?]
[Can someone show me the way? I really want to learn about it!]
[I love every god Su Fu has summoned so far. They’re powerful, cool, and seem to have great stories!]
[There is! Didn’t Su Fu go viral once before because of the Chang’an map?]
[So if you want to experience China, start with the Order maps, like Chang’an, Luoyang, Kaifeng, Jinling, and so on.]
[The anomalies inside are at a human level, so it’s quite safe, but the food, entertainment, and cultural experiences are incredibly rich and interesting!]
[I’ve been there! I really want to go to those places to play again!]
[The lantern festival in Chang’an is a must-see! All kinds of colorful lanterns compete for beauty, the night market snacks are endless, and there are various folk artists performing!]
[I recommend Luoyang’s Peony Festival! It’s stunningly beautiful!]
[The night view of the Qinhuai River in the Jinling map is amazing! Ride a painted boat, see the flickering lights, scholars and beauties reciting poetry, the sound of flutes and pipes drifting on the wind…]
[Why are you all just enjoying yourselves? Hehe, I’ll offer a different perspective: you can take the Imperial Examination. There’s a chance to get the ‘Xiucai’ title, which is very useful across various maps~]
[…Is the person above serious? The exam difficulty is explosive! Seeking a guide!]
