Within the darkness, there was a sense of terror.
— — -the King of the Wraith realm, Mara Heavenly King.
Standing in the void of space, its body was as large as Mount Sumeru, connecting heaven and earth.
Wraiths of all shapes and sizes surrounded it, densely packed and distributed within a radius of several thousand miles.
All wraiths were under the command of the Heavenly King.
At this point, several masked cultivators were led by four Black Flame Venerables to the Heavenly King.
The Black Flame Venerables were about the same height as the 100-meter-tall Starlight Mobile Mech.
— — -but Mara Heavenly King's eyes were closed, its eyelids alone were comparable to a Black Flame Venerable.
The cultivators who came from the Huang Quan fragment world were nothing more than specks of dust in front of the Wraith King.
The cultivators bowed towards the great wraith and spoke in unison:
"We greet the Wraith realm's Lord, Mara Heavenly King"
The great wraith called Mara Heavenly King still didn't open its eyes, its mouth was also tightly shut.
— — -but its voice resounded from the void of space:
「 Everyone has come from afar, forgive me for not being able to open my eyes and speak 」
The leading cultivator clasped his fist: "Where the Heavenly King's gaze reaches, all things perish; when you speak, the plague of death spreads everywhere; this humble one naturally understands this, thank you for your benevolence, Heavenly King"
Satisfied, Mara Heavenly King's voice resounded from the void of space again:
「 As expected of a true person from the Huang Quan realm, to be able to understand my difficulties, it was not a waste of my guidance 」
The cultivators once again bowed.
Mara Heavenly King continued: 「 I heard that you've already discussed with my subordinates 」
"Indeed" the leading cultivator replied.
「 Very well, it seems you've all fulfilled my conditions, but I still have one last condition 」
"Please speak, Heavenly King"
「 Every day, you must offer a world filled with living beings to me 」
The leading cultivator was a bit doubtful and clasped his fist: "What exactly does the Heavenly King need a world for? If you can inform us beforehand, we would be able to make preparations"
Mara Heavenly King's voice resounded throughout the void of space, full of solemnity:
「 The birth and destruction of the infinite worlds are all fabricated, only by me will there be bliss 」
With that, all the wraiths and monsters within several thousand miles prostrated themselves in the void of space, worshipping Mara Heavenly King.
The cultivators didn't say anything, but quite a few of them began to tremble.
The cultivator in the lead was silent. Suddenly, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from the back of his neck.
Just as he wiped off the sweat, it came back again not long after. In the end, he couldn't bear it any longer and could only use the technique to wipe off the cold sweat on his back and neck.
— — -this cultivator was the leader sent by the Huang Quan realm, a man who had gone through many storms in his life and had interacted with countless powerful entities. He also held great authority in his hands, able to decide many major events of the Huang Quan realm with a single word.
However, he still didn't dare to agree to Heavenly King Mara's request.
Every day, it would destroy a world full of living beings for its own amusement.
The Huang Quan path's fragment world was incredibly powerful, able to restrain millions of worlds as its own supply.
However …
Every day, billions of lives would be destroyed, and even entire worlds would be destroyed...
Such deep and pure malice completely surpassed the imagination of cultivators.
The leading cultivator forced himself to calm down and respectfully cupped his fists. "This is a serious matter, so I have to report it first. Please wait for a moment, Heavenly King."
Heavenly King Mara gently replied: 「 It is fine, I'm not a person who goes too far, report this to your superiors 」
The cultivator then took out a purple talisman, muttered a few words, and infused the talisman with spirit energy.
The talisman turned into a purple dragon that quickly disappeared into the void of space.
Heavenly King Mara continued: 「 It will probably take some time to wait for a reply, how about you take this chance to do what you promised me first? 」
The cultivator pondered a bit and asked: "The entities that Heavenly King mentioned, are they all souls?"
"That's right, their strongest point is hiding. Once they hide, my subordinates wouldn't be able to find them, it's a huge headache"
The cultivator clasped his fist: "Don't worry, Heavenly King, we will definitely resolve your worries"
Heavenly King Mara laughed: 「 Very well, kill them all — — - it would be even better if you can capture them and bring them back to worship me, I like to consume such souls 」
"As you wish, Heavenly King"
…
At another location.
The cave of corpses.
The long-bearded old man was talking to the Black Cat.
"Little cat, little cat, you've finally appeared, let me tell you about what happened in the past"
The Black Cat clasped her paws: "Meow"
The long-bearded old man continued: "In the past, when we first began to explore the Dusty World, the Deities felt deeply uneasy"
"Because if too much power were to be unleashed, it would alarm the Dusty World — — - in that world, there were things that caused even the Inner Plane, the void, and other mysterious places to feel fear"
"Because of that, the Deities swore a vow not to unleash any violent power within the passage leading to the Dusty World"
"Meow, meow meow"
"Were there any exceptions? Heh heh, originally I couldn't tell you, but since it's come to this, there's no harm in telling you "
"— — -when the Deities swore the binding vow, I was sitting on the shoulder of a certain lady, flattering her"
"When the vow of the four Pillar Gods was released, that lady happened to glance at me and suddenly shed tears"
"She took out an item and gave it to the guardian statues of the four Pillar Gods, then told me that if one day, someone brought that item to us, it would represent a certain hope for the pixies"
The Black Cat perked up her ears and called out in interest: "Meow meow meow?"
"You're asking about that lady's identity? She is the Queen of the Elemental Fairies, the Controller of Time, the Undying Sand, the legendary lady "the long-bearded old man replied.
"… Meow"
"After countless years of waiting, we finally discovered that someone had brought that item here"
The Black Cat pointed at herself with her paw: "Meow meow? Meow meow meow? "
"Yes, you and the Omni Stone"
"Meow meow meow meow" the Black Cat muttered to herself.
The long-bearded old man continued: "I've already begun to sense a fate even more terrifying than death. As soon as I saw you, I understood that you and the Omni Stone are our final hope"
The old man suddenly became anxious and continued: "Listen, I'm sure you've already sensed it — — both you and us will soon be captured and killed, our souls will also suffer eternal torment — — perhaps in 10 minutes, perhaps in an hour, that will happen"
"Kitty, if I tell you the incantation to activate the Omni Stone, would you accept us into your group? Would you be willing to fight alongside us? In truth, cooperation is the only way for both you and us to survive "
"Meow" the Black Cat solemnly nodded.
"Very well, then listen carefully. The incantation that the lady left behind is: The Sands of Time, no living being can't grasp it, scatter all oaths into nothingness"
Hearing that, the Black Cat slowly turned back into her human form and Gu Qing Shan's appearance.
He held the Omni Stone in hand and muttered: "The Sands of Time, no living being can't grasp it, scatter all oaths into nothingness"
Boom — — — —
Everything around them disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan found herself standing in the middle of a sea of quicksand.
Standing across from him was a mature woman with a graceful bearing.
The Undying Sand, the legendary lady, Fusi.
Compared to a hundred million years later, she appeared much younger.
Fusi looked at Gu Qing Shan, but her eyes seemed to be staring at nothing.
"Time is too long, fate is too chaotic, so I can't see your appearance clearly"
"The one who came later, listen carefully. Within an hour, both you and the pixie will die within the Samsara, never to be seen again"
"Before the oath of the four Pillar Gods, I can't do too much"
"But I've decided to fight for a chance of survival for you"
