Gu Qing Shan walked out from the crowd.
"What do you think?" he asked with his inner sight.
The Earth sword replied: 「 That curse is a sort of living power, when it approaches you, it will manifest into an almost invisible entity 」
Gu Qing Shan said: "In other words, you can destroy it"
The Earth sword replied: 「 Indeed, I can probably prevent it from approaching you, but this requires both Soul Points and your swordsmanship — — you must use your sword to perform sword techniques that are flawless 」
Gu Qing Shan walked towards the metal gate in front of the bridge and pondered: "What if I combine [Earth's Choice] and [Parting Flame] together? Would I be able to do better? "
The Earth sword replied: 「 I won't know until I try — — hah, I'm more proficient in killing than defense, if only the Six Paths Great Mountain sword was here, she specializes in breaking all Laws, perhaps she would be able to deal with the curse 」
— — Shannu was currently disguised as Gu Qing Shan to travel with Boss's group to the Bramble Bird Kingdom.
Gu Qing Shan shook his head.
He was quickly going through all of his options in his mind.
He didn't know much about this curse that originated from the Dusty World, so he could only take it one step at a time.
Gu Qing Shan reached his hand out to push the metal gate open.
"Let's go" he muttered.
「 Got it 」 the Earth sword replied.
Gu Qing Shan took a step forward and walked onto the floating bridge.
A light breeze blew past.
Some sort of malevolent power manifested from nowhere, riding the wind towards them from every direction.
Gu Qing Shan's gaze became sharp as she wielded her sword forward.
In an instant, countless sword phantoms as thin as a cow's hair appeared on her sword, clashing countless times in the void of space.
[Sword of Extinguishing Flames], [Slash], [Parting Flame]!
The Earth sword's Thaumaturgy, [Earth's Choice]!
The power of the sword and the Asura Divine Skill fused and manifested into a sword technique.
Gu Qing Shan pointed her sword forward.
Intense flames manifested and slashed at the void of space.
Over a dozen desperate screams resounded.
The Heavenly Father cast his concerned gaze down from above the clouds.
The expressions of the onlookers changed simultaneously.
This attack seemed to have struck something!
Before, the most they could do was ensure that they weren't corroded by the curse, but now, someone had taken a step further and resisted the curse!
"This is a good chance —"
Gu Qing Shan chanted, her entire body surged with endless blue lightning.
"What kind of evil is this? Show yourself!" Gu Qing Shan roared.
Billions of lightning bolts appeared in the void, condensing into clusters of flowing light that circled around the longsword in his hand.
In the next instant —
The lightning snake condensed into a ball of light and shadow, materializing into a blooming blue lotus!
This was the combination skill of the Lightning Thaumaturgy [Dreamjolt] and the Secret Art [Drawn Shadow]. After Gu Qing Shan grasped the Asura Deific King's swordsmanship, she gradually created this combination skill.
Secret Art, Thunder Shadow
Light and shadows appeared and disappeared, stirring up the void.
One by one, the formless beings were swept by the lightning sword projections and froze in place, unable to move.
"Hiss —"
"… Ah … Damn it …"
"Life …"
"Perish!"
Countless malicious voices were muttering in the void of space.
Obviously, Gu Qing Shan's sword strike didn't harm them at all, but the power of [Dreamjolt] temporarily immobilized them.
The Earth sword's mountainous heavy voice suddenly resounded: 「 As long as the curse is not dispelled, there is no way to kill them all, attacking is meaningless 」
Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded.
He also understood that these things originated from the curse, so killing one or two of them is useless.
— — -fortunately, the twin snakes of black and white helped me recover the power I expended before they left.
Killing my way through isn't a big deal.
But as long as the curse isn't dispelled, I won't be able to hold on for too long, let alone save the Sacred Chant Angel.
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts quickly turned.
If I can make the Sacred Chant Angel laugh, the curse will be dispelled.
…
… that's not right.
Gu Qing Shan changed his perspective and continued thinking.
Before me, countless people must have come to this Temporal Oasis in order to save the Sacred Chant Angel.
None of them could make the Sacred Chant Angel laugh.
Even the Sacred Chant Angel herself couldn't laugh even after trying everything she could.
What can I do to make her laugh?
I'm not Ye Fei Li, I don't have any experience in making a girl laugh.
If that's the case, then let's think about it from another perspective.
The reason why the Sacred Chant Angel can't laugh is because she's been afflicted by a certain curse of the Dusty World.
— — if I don't care if she laughs or not and focus all of my attention on dispelling the curse, she'll naturally recover.
I don't need to care if she laughs or not, I'll be able to resolve this!
But dispelling the curse is easier said than done, not even the Heavenly Father can do anything about it.
An entity of the Giant of Beginning's caliber must have already been invited to take a look at the Sacred Chant Angel, but there's nothing he can do.
Even so many great beings couldn't dispel this curse.
The Earth sword also said that it can't be dispelled.
Time quickly passed.
Five seconds passed.
The invisible entities in the void of space regained their freedom and went into hiding again.
Gu Qing Shan continued forward.
He swung his sword to kill the invisible monsters in the wind.
The Asura was only avoiding these monsters, while he was killing them.
This stimulated the curse, causing it to grow stronger and stronger.
The invisible monsters came closer and closer, slowly filling the entire void of space and completely surrounding Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan wielded the Chao Yin sword in a reverse grip and attacked with both swords!
The endless stream of sword gleams was watertight, and with each swing, a few formless monsters were killed.
But the monsters were endless, and the ones that appeared later on were gradually becoming more and more powerful.
By the time he reached the middle of the bridge, the number of invisible entities in the void of space was already innumerable.
The monsters let out earth-shattering roars, but they couldn't be seen at all, causing fear to rise in his heart.
While swinging his sword, Gu Qing Shan was quickly thinking of a countermeasure.
Damn it, how exactly am I supposed to dispel the curse?
At some point, he couldn't help but mutter: "Dispel …"
Out of nowhere, a voice suddenly resounded in his ears.
It was a dry, hoarse female voice, carrying a bit of dissatisfaction as she muttered: "Too weak … very well … just unleash your power"
Gu Qing Shan was startled.
It took him a full breath's worth of time to react to what just happened.
A second later, he flew backwards, fending off the invisible monsters in the void of space while retreating from the floating bridge, standing still in front of the iron gate.
Since he retreated from the floating bridge, the power of the curse naturally couldn't chase after him.
They couldn't affect him from such a long distance.
The Heavenly Father's voice resounded from above: "Do you want to give up?"
Gu Qing Shan waved his hand and loudly said: "Wait a moment, I've thought of a new method, I want to try again, is that possible?"
The Heavenly Father paused briefly, then happily replied: "Of course, as long as you're confident in your method"
"Thank you"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan stood still outside the bridge and silently meditated.
— — he had understood what just happened.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI:
[After several rounds of intense practice, your Sacrificial Dance has gained a tiny bit of power]
[This was a curse from the Dusty World. Its intense attack on you, as well as your desire to dispel the curse, had successfully attracted the attention of a certain entity related to the Living Being Sacrificial Dance. This entity had come from a distant world to pay attention to you]
[This entity ignited the power of the Sacrificial Dance that you had accumulated before leaving]
[As you are the Devil King of the Samsara Huang Quan, you have gained the Earth element]
[As you are the Earth Pillar of the void, you have gained the Earth element]
[Now, you may complete the first official Dance of the Earth God]
[Attention, this is not a practice!]
[Attention, this is not a practice!]
[Attention, this is not a practice!]
[This is the first official Living Being Sacrificial Dance]
[Dance of the Earth God]
[Begin]
Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through it.
Somehow, he seemed to have understood something.
At the same time, the sun and moon became dim.
A sandstorm came from the void of space.
The entire world seemed to have fallen into a state of darkness.
A gentle glow appeared around Gu Qing Shan's body, giving him the appearance of an Apocalyptic Deity.
He took a deep breath, sensed the power of the Dance, and lightly took a step forward.
Dong!
The drum beat.
Unlike the cheerful Dance from before, this was a heavy and resounding drum beat.
Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong! Dong!
The drum beat was slow and full of urgency.
— — – other than the sound of the drum, there was no other music, only the sound of the sandstorm, sometimes high and sometimes low, resounding by his ears.
Solemn. Solemn.
Gu Qing Shan took another step forward.
Zhang Xuan pointed his sword forward.
"Awaken" he whispered.
Dong dong dong dong dong!
The drum beat was rapid, as if urging something.
On the other side of the Holy Heaven, the graveyard of the fallen angels that had been buried for billions of years suddenly erupted with a sky-high yellow light.
A fully armored skeleton of an angel climbed out from the graveyard.
After a brief moment of silence, it abruptly reached its hand out from the ground to grab the Ancient Boss sword that had been buried for countless years, flapped its skeletal wings, and flew into the air.
The skeleton of the angel looked towards Gu Qing Shan's direction.
Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!
The drum beat became more rapid!
The second skeleton of an angel jumped out from the graveyard, wielding a pair of crescent blades and flew into the air.
The third skeleton pushed the graveyard away, propped a heavy war hammer on its shoulder, and flew into the air.
The fourth …
The fifth …
A total of 12 angel skeletons.
These were the 12 bravest and most battle-hardened angels in the history of the Holy Heaven.
Gu Qing Shan took another step forward, arriving at the edge of the floating bridge.
In front of him, the invisible monsters that filled the entire bridge had gathered to form a faintly discernible giant face.
It looked down at Gu Qing Shan and spoke in a low voice: 「 I want that body. Power of the Earth, you cannot ruin my plan 」
As it spoke, the entire world began to tremble.
All living beings prostrated themselves on the ground, losing all of their power.
The Heavenly Father also fell from the sky, using all of his holy power to barely stand.
Gu Qing Shan didn't say anything.
He put the Chao Yin sword away, wielded the Earth sword in his hand, and lightly swung it.
Sword dance!
His voice resounded from the sound of the drums: 「 This is the war of the Dusty World of the past, you and I will each lead a side 」
12 faint yellow streaks of light flew through the sky, descending from above and landing behind Gu Qing Shan.
The Battle Angels appeared.
