Since the beginning of time, for a single living being, or rather, for a self-aware individual, 'knowing what they are' had always been an eternal question.
And every time he used [See you once again], he would only receive a single answer.
There were only 3 minutes left.
So Gu Qing Shan decided to ask that question:
「 What exactly are you? 」
The vertical pupil on the shield fell into confusion, not knowing where to start.
「 I am … 」
It paused briefly, then slowly continued.
「 I was born in the Occultism Land, a place extremely far away from this place, ever since I was born several hundred million years ago … 」
Gu Qing Shan scowled.
There's so much that could be said around the question of 'what am I', how could 3 minutes be enough?
If I want to obtain more information, I have to …
Gu Qing Shan's eyes met the vertical pupil.
Inside the parallel world [Illusory Dream], he attempted to use his Iris Technique again!
This was a technique within a technique!
Lines of bright red text appeared on the War God UI:
[Warning!]
[Your World Technique has yet to be fully constructed, unable to endure both [Illusory Dream] and [Temporal Recollection] at the same time!]
[If you forcefully perform a technique within a technique, your eyes will receive a certain amount of damage, temporarily unable to perform any other Iris Technique until your injuries have fully recovered!]
Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through everything.
— — – the [Illusory Dream] technique was basically a technique that allowed him to enter a parallel world, where everything and everyone in this world perfectly aligned with reality, making it impossible to tell that this was a dream.
He created an illusory parallel world and dragged the monster into this parallel world.
— — -there was only a single ring of the God of Life, and only Gu Qing Shan herself could survive.
That was why the monster still managed to kill Jang Young-ho and the Boss's group.
However, all of this happened in the dream of a parallel world, while in the real world, his companions survived.
Gu Qing Shan's plan was to first use [Illusory Dream], then think of a way to use [See you once again].
And then use [Memory Recollection] to thoroughly understand everything about the monster.
— — The Time Reversal technique was an eye technique that he had already mastered.
He had once used this technique on Lin, allowing him to see Lin's past and see what happened when Lin first entered the Abyss.
Not long ago, when he was in the Forest of Corpse Pillars, he had also used Time Reversal to see the past of the Void Gods devouring mythical creatures.
Three techniques, one after the other.
The battle was finally over.
But at the very last step, the War God UI had reminded me that using [Time Recollection] would cause me harm.
Gu Qing Shan sighed unwillingly and made up her mind.
This was their only chance to gather information about the monster. If they gave it up, they wouldn't be able to find a way to defeat the monster.
Gu Qing Shan's eyes met the vertical pupils.
Time Reversal, activate!
In an instant —
The fountain, the trees, the corpses on the ground, and even the entire garden disappeared from Gu Qing Shan's sight.
The whole world faded away from him.
As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but emptiness.
The next moment.
All the blankness disappeared.
Darkness filled Gu Qing Shan's vision.
A certain voice resounded:
「 Everything is about to be destroyed, weaklings, run away, you will not be able to participate in the final battle 」
Following that, Gu Qing Shan saw a black glow.
This black glow gave him a familiar feeling.
Right, this was the same spirit.
— — the Occultism spirit that ate the mermaid in the garden!
The black glow went through everything, entered the space vortex, and began its endless escape.
At this point, it had only just gained sentience, so it didn't understand anything.
But the feeling of death and destruction behind it urged it to use all of its strength to escape from that place.
From then on, this black glowing Occultism spirit wandered through the space vortex.
Whenever it felt tired, it would look for some floating corpses and hide in the shadows of those corpses to rest.
When it was hungry, it would eat the monsters that wandered the space vortex.
Most of the time, the Occultism spirit would be able to devour their flesh and soul before they even noticed anything.
A long period of time passed.
During this period of time, the Occultism spirit had subconsciously, tirelessly, and continuously escaped without stopping.
— — -escaping from the place where it was born.
Many battles occurred along the way.
Most of the time, it would be able to easily defeat its opponents.
But occasionally, it would also lose.
And whenever that happened, the Occultism spirit would use its speed to escape with everything it had!
Each and every one of these shocking battles was an eye-opener for Gu Qing Shan.
This was a method of fighting that belonged to void monsters that he had never seen before, as well as the ones that left the deepest impression in the Occultism spirit's memory, so Gu Qing Shan naturally learned a lot from watching them.
This was a battle between Deities, how could a mortal ever have the chance to witness such a thing?
Gu Qing Shan continued watching.
He quickly noticed a few battles.
In each of these battles, the Occultism spirit was forced to flee.
Gu Qing Shan silently memorized the details of those battles.
Time quickly passed.
When the technique was about to end.
Lines of glowing text appeared in the void of space:
[Using two World Techniques at the same time has exceeded the limit of your endurance]
[The world that you created has been damaged to a certain degree]
[For the next period of time, you cannot use your World Technique again, otherwise, the world that you created will collapse]
[Attention, there are 30 seconds left until the World Technique ends]
After reading through all that, Gu Qing Shan's body moved and slowly disappeared into the void of space.
There wasn't much time left, so he needed to return to Reality to make some preparations.
Only the Occultism spirit remained.
「 … Hm? Where's that person?
」 The Occultism spirit only felt that after it finished eating, the person in front of it suddenly disappeared without a trace.
The vertical pupil on the shield quickly scanned through the entire garden.
Seemingly thinking of something, the vertical pupil controlled the headless corpse to fly into the sky, broke through the world barrier, and quickly left the garden.
It stood in the void of space, looking around.
Within the chaotic and endless void of space, other than darkness, there was only a bit of light and wind.
This place was the space vortex.
That's right.
The Occultism spirit could even see the faint figures of a few worlds.
Indeed, it remembered that these figures were all near the garden ruins.
Everything was fine.
— — -but where exactly did that brat run off to?
…
At another location.
Reality.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly regained his senses.
He found himself being supported by Jang Young-ho and Ye Fei Li, hovering in the middle of the dark void.
"What happened?" Gu Qing Shan immediately asked.
Boss briefly explained: "I've already returned the garden to the Abyss, so there's only nothingness left here — — where's that monster?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "It'll appear in about 20 seconds"
Boss held the Star Firefly in his hand and said: "Leave it to me, all you need to do is watch over my corpse"
"Take it down with you? No need "Gu Qing Shan replied.
He turned to Ye Fei Li: "There's still about a dozen seconds left, you and I will be able to deal with it"
"How is that possible!?" everyone exclaimed in shock.
Ye Fei Li regained her composure and asked: "What do we need to do now?"
Gu Qing Shan quickly explained: "Listen, that monster has attached itself to the body of the dead and the soul of the dead, using a spell to protect itself so that it can't be killed"
"When it appears, you and I will lock it down, you take the soul, I'll kill the dead and the soul, then I'll kill it!"
Ye Fei Li seriously listened and asked: "Can you confirm where it will appear?"
"In front of me"
"Alright"
The plan was set.
Ye Fei Li drew the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook.
Gu Qing Shan held the Six Paths Great Mountain sword in one hand and the Devil King Warden Rod in the other.
"5 seconds left, get ready"
Gu Qing Shan said.
Ye Fei Li held his breath and entered combat mode.
Gu Qing Shan also became serious.
For some reason, at this crucial moment, an irrelevant thought suddenly popped up in his mind.
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword, the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook, the Devil King Warden Rod …
These are the three Divine Armaments of Huang Quan.
Using the power of these three Divine Armaments, they were able to surpass the level of mortals and Deities to ambush and kill a terrifying entity like the Occultism spirit.
Then …
Just how strong is the real Six Paths Reincarnation?
