"Alive? Are there many dangers in the secret passage? "
Gu Qing Shan asked.
The giant spoke with a resounding voice: 「 100 million years ago, the secret passage had already been swept clean by numerous Combatants, leaving only a few scattered areas of danger 」
The snow-white eagle continued: 「 But too much time has passed, the curse has only just been slowly undone, we don't know what exactly is inside either, we will have to explore everything again 」
100 million years is more than enough time to turn an ocean into a mulberry field.
In other words — — -
Who knows what's inside the secret passage.
Without enough power, how could we explore it?
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan tried asking: "Everyone, since we're all on the same side, can you please be a bit more lenient and return my power to me?"
The four statues shook their heads in unison.
The giant replied: 「 A vow is a vow, it cannot be shaken, even we can't do anything about it, after all, this is a technique that was set up to prevent any accidents from happening 」
Gu Qing Shan sincerely replied:
"Without hiding anything, the Fire Deity is dead, the Earth Deity is also dead, as for the Wind Deity and Water Deity — — - I've never even heard of your whereabouts"
"And now, I am the only new Earth Deity left in this space vortex"
"As one of us, you should at least loosen your grip a bit, in case we run into a situation that we can't defend against, you can't just send me to my death like this"
The four statues silently listened to her.
The snow-white eagle continued: 「 A vow cannot be broken, but we've already anticipated such a situation, so we've made a few preparations 」
Gu Qing Shan smiled and said nothing, only appeared to be listening attentively.
But the four statues didn't say anything else and instead began to chant an obscure incantation at the same time.
Their voices became louder and louder, as if they were calling something.
The stone floor in the middle of the four Deities began to move.
Crack!
With a resounding sound, the center of the stone floor caved in as a stone orb rose up.
The stone orb hovered in the air, allowing everyone to clearly see the thousands of facets on its surface.
— — it looked like a diamond, but not as eye-catching.
"What is this?" Gu Qing Shan curiously asked.
The giant replied: 「 The Omni Stone, a natural treasure born from the void of space, it has no sentience or soul, nor does it have any power of its own, the only treasure that can avoid the vow of the four Deities 」
"Now it's yours."
Gu Qing Shan reached out and caught the stone orb.
Seeing him take the stone orb, the Snowy Eagle said, "At the entrance of the secret passage, many people of unknown origin have gathered, waiting for the time to come."
The Giant said: 「 Go quickly. In two hours, Reneedol's Primal Chaos Curse will be completely lifted. Everything depends on you now. 」
After that, the four statues gradually returned to silence, no longer moving.
Gu Qing Shan was startled. She looked at the four statues and then at the stone ball in her hand.
Lines of glowing text slowly appeared on the War God UI:
"Myriad Stone, a treasure of the void."
"This is a treasure naturally formed in the space vortex, it can bestow power upon the wielder."
[Description: The Omni Stone will continuously bestow you with various abilities. The specific method is to bestow one ability per hour.
"Every hour that passes, your old ability will disappear, and a new ability will appear."
"You've obtained the Omni Stone."
"An hour from now, you will gain a new ability."
"Power of the void: Shadow Strike"
"You've grasped Shadow Strike, able to split into three images at any time to confuse others"
[Description: The abilities bestowed upon you by the Omni Stone are completely random and random, there is no way to determine their strength or characteristics]
— — -what a rare item.
Gu Qing Shan began to check her other circumstances.
The War God UI requires Soul Points.
Without Soul Points, [War God Skills] and [War God Intelligence] can't be used.
Title Skills … can be used.
Gu Qing Shan changed his title to [Shen Wei General] to increase the speed of his attacks.
"Earth sword, what's your situation?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The Earth sword replied: 「 You don't have Soul Points, so I gave up on [Earth Choice] and kept [Sanctuary] 」
[Sanctuary] could be used at will, it didn't require Soul Points.
"Even you have to abide by the vow of the four Pillar Gods?" Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.
The Earth sword replied: 「 Of course, all sentient and soulful entities must abide by the vow — — - by the way, it's not just the vow of the four Pillar Gods, there are also many powerful entities who have added their power to the vow 」
The Chao Yin sword let out a dejected 'wu wu'.
It naturally kept the [Sea Manipulation] ability, but since Gu Qing Shan didn't have Soul Points, this ability couldn't be used.
As for the gourd Adorable — — -
Xiu xiu xiu ~
Its triumphant voice resounded from the void of space.
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.
Just like that, it snuck over from the Four God Statues, unfettered and undiscovered.
The [Spotless Jade] ability was truly impressive, even the Earth Creator didn't notice it before.
"Alright, I'm starting to feel a bit more confident" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
He took a step forward and walked into the depths of the secret passage.
…
Gu Qing Shan was quickly moving through the dark passage.
Since there was no light around, he had to be careful.
Because he had lost both spirit energy and inner sight, he was nothing but a normal person right now.
Fortunately, there weren't any forks here.
Gu Qing Shan was very careful, afraid that he would run into another disguised passage.
But on the way, he didn't notice anything suspicious at all.
— — -that's right, any entity that reached this place had all of their abilities stripped away by the four Pillar Gods' statues, leaving only a single skill.
Those people probably didn't have the mood to do pointless things like misdirecting others.
Even if they wanted to, after losing all of their powers, digging up a passage and rearranging it was a physically taxing job.
A thankless job.
Time slowly passed.
The darkness was finally dispelled by the faint light.
The path ahead became clear.
At the end of the passage was a small stone plaza.
Numerous naturally glowing gems were embedded on the walls and floor of the passage, illuminating the surroundings.
Quite a few people were already waiting here.
They were divided into several groups and gathered together. It was obvious that they were from different forces.
At the end of the plaza was a cluster of black light.
This cluster of light was blocking the passage, not allowing anyone to pass through.
Noticing that someone else had arrived, everyone turned to Gu Qing Shan.
All of a sudden, a cheerful voice resounded:
"What a sly one, I didn't think you'd be able to see through my trick and find your way here"
Gu Qing Shan followed the voice.
Only to see 7-8 cultivators standing together, and the voice came from one of them.
They were all wearing masks.
— — from their attire, it's obvious that they're from the parallel world.
Which means, the ones who disguised themselves on the passage and led me to my death in the deep ocean were them?
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, but didn't show it on his face.
Obviously, everyone was waiting for the cluster of black light to scatter so that they could enter the secret passage.
In this situation, I'm alone, and I've lost a lot of my powers, so it's best to endure it for now.
Everything else can wait until I get inside.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan remained silent and found a random spot to silently wait.
But the situation didn't develop as he had expected.
The voice from before resounded again:
"This guy is alone, I don't believe that he'll be like that little girl and win the right to survive with his own strength"
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
His gaze scanned through the square, finally noticing the little girl that the other party spoke of in an inconspicuous corner.
Su Cher.
Su Cher was here.
One of her arms was dyed red with blood as she leaned against the wall, cautiously observing her surroundings.
Gu Qing Shan's eyes met with hers.
Su Cher quickly looked away.
— — -now that Gu Qing Shan had changed his appearance and was standing in a shadowy area, Su Cher couldn't recognize him.
Not too far in front of her, several masked corpses silently laid on the ground.
Obviously, a battle had taken place here.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze moved again.
Only to see numerous corpses scattered all over the square.
— — -these were most likely the people who came to explore the secret passage alone.
Other than Su Cher, the other lone travelers had already been eliminated.
That's right, everyone was now a normal person with only a single skill to protect themselves.
The secret passage was about to open, and the sealed treasure would be in the other world at the end of the passage.
At this point, using the advantage of numbers to reduce the number of competitors was naturally a very good thing.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze wandered back and forth over Su Cher's body.
She was still in good spirits and looked full of fighting spirit. However, her body was already injured and blood was still dripping down from her arm.
Everyone only had a single skill.
Most likely, what Su Cher left behind was a powerful combat card.
So she didn't have any means to heal herself.
Looking around, everyone's gazes were faintly discernible as they glanced at her with ill intent.
— — -her wounds were getting worse and worse.
Gu Qing Shan lightly scowled.
His gaze turned back to the group of masked cultivators.
They were the ones who injured Su Cher.
Gu Qing Shan wielded both swords in his hands and silently adjusted his breathing.
Now that he had the body of a normal person, it wasn't that easy to kill someone.
At this point, a voice came from another group of people.
Their leader said: "You've already killed enough, we'll kill this one, everything on his body belongs to us"
The leader made a gesture.
His subordinates spread out and surrounded Gu Qing Shan.
