"The Eternal Abyss … is going to be destroyed today?" Gu Qing Shan repeated.
"Indeed" Magic Dragon replied.
Gu Qing Shan looked at him without saying a word.
Magic Dragon's gaze appeared nostalgic as he continued: "In the past, when I was born in the Wraith realm, I was hailed as a peerless genius when I was young, struggled for several hundred years, then became the center of attention due to my astonishing compatibility with the Guise Hex, some even declared that I would become the fourth Wraith Lord in another thousand years"
"And that was my path to disaster"
"At the time, the Wraith Lord found me and told me that as long as I completed a certain mission, he would reward me with countless resources and help me break through my cultivation, making my dream come true"
"And then?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Magic Dragon lowered his head and smirked mockingly: "And then … I followed the mission's instructions and stayed inside Magic Dragon's body, destroyed the Bygone Era humanity's path of survival, forced them away, then competed against you for the twin swords Heaven and Earth, all the way until today"
"I endured such a long and lonely period of time, finally waiting for the Wraith realm to enter the space vortex, but I was immediately infected by a parasite and died in your hands"
"I finally understand"
"— — -as the greatest genius of the Wraith realm, my final value was to use my own body and soul to eliminate the enemies of the Wraith Lord's son"
Magic Dragon's tone was cold and emotionless, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and couldn't help but shake her head.
In terms of talent and ability, Magic Dragon wasn't bad at all, but his life was so tragic.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't find the words to comfort him.
Magic Dragon looked at Gu Qing Shan and muttered: "Everything that Cang Wu Zhang had was the best, including the Azure Dragon and his Guise Hex. Originally, with his strength, he wouldn't have been qualified to even touch it, nor would he have been worthy of the title of 'Wraith Might'"
"Gu Qing Shan, it's incredible that you can beat him once, but you better pray that you don't run into him again."
"Could it be that his old man is going to fight in person?" Gu Qing Shan narrowed her eyes and asked.
"Not necessarily in person, but he will definitely use a power that you will absolutely not be able to resist to kill you in one fell swoop," Magic Dragon said.
Magic Dragon stared at Gu Qing Shan for a while, then said: "After you finish absorbing my power, you'll have roughly the power of three dragons, about the same as a true Wraith Might"
"However, you must keep in mind, in the Wraith realm, there are at least a few dozen Wraith Might commanders. If any one of them were to lead their army here, the only thing you could do would be to die in battle"
As he spoke, Magic Dragon's body gradually became thinner.
Magic Dragon and Gu Qing Shan looked at each other.
"I don't have much time left, I need to find a body immediately —"
Saying so, Magic Dragon clasped his hands together and formed a strange hand seal.
"Lend me a bit of Soul Points, I need to perform a technique"
Gu Qing Shan wasn't afraid of him playing any tricks, so she used her consciousness to transfer a bit of Soul Points to him.
As soon as Magic Dragon received this Soul Points, the hand seal in his hands was immediately completed.
An invisible fluctuation began to spread from his hands.
At first, Gu Qing Shan didn't feel anything, but after a while, her expression changed.
He took out three coins from his pocket.
The three coins quickly disintegrated, turning into tiny grains of sand that scattered from his hand.
"You destroyed three of my coins?" Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice.
Magic Dragon waved his hand.
The other three coins suddenly flew out from his soul and hovered in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan received the coins.
These three coins were different from the ones he obtained before.
While they were in Gu Qing Shan's hand, they were lightly vibrating towards Magic Dragon, as if saying goodbye to him.
The coins are sentient!
A line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[Space-Time Coin]
[Description: You've learned of its power, but no one knows where it came from]
[Description: These are the true Space-Time Coins, the only real ones within the space vortex!]
Gu Qing Shan looked at the coins, then at Magic Dragon, slowly understanding something.
Magic Dragon looked at the three coins and spoke tiredly: "There are 5 unimaginable treasures within the void"
"The Book of Prophesized Destinies from the Inner Plane, the twin swords Heaven and Earth from the Eternal Abyss, and the Space-Time Coin of unknown origin, they are all one of them"
[The Space-Time Coins were obtained by the Bygone Era humans after they came to the space vortex]
「 In the Age of Old, the Bygone Era humans had used the power of these coins without restraint, but they didn't know that the real thing was already in my hands, and that the replicas were all created through my research and secretly revealed to them 」
[Fake coins will completely crumble after a few uses]
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Those who use those coins will be forever trapped in a certain era?"
[No, they will attract the attention of monsters when they pass through the River of Time and be devoured]
[Just now, I used a Secret Art to destroy all of those coins]
[Among all the worlds, the only ones left are the three real ones in your hands — — I'm already dead, so I can't take them with me, so I might as well give them to you]
Magic Dragon's figure slowly disappeared as he flew towards the void of space.
[Remember]
He finally said.
[I don't want to help you with anything, Gu Qing Shan, I only hope that you will carry my hatred and kill those lofty Wraith Lords]
[Although this is almost impossible, this is my rejection of my own fate]
[Consider it the price for obtaining the three Space-Time Coins from me — — -]
[I'll leave this matter to you]
As soon as he said that.
Magic Dragon's figure was about to leave.
"Wait a minute!" Gu Qing Shan hurriedly called out.
"I've already given you the Space-Time Coins, what else do you want?" Magic Dragon turned around and asked.
"How about you stay in my Thought Sea, once I return to my original world, I'll help you reincarnate and let you start over again"
Gu Qing Shan added: "I'll take care of all of your cultivation resources, don't worry, I'm not the same as the Wraith Lords, I always do what I say"
Magic Dragon chuckled, then replied: "Reincarnation will forget the past, but I will never forget the past, and I will never be a fool who only has talent but is always deceived and used by others"
His figure flickered and left Gu Qing Shan's Thought Sea.
The orange cat abruptly opened his eyes to see a transparent soul flying through the sky towards a faraway place.
The orange cat released his inner sight to follow the soul's movements while scanning through several tens of thousands of miles to observe the current situation of this world.
Very quickly, the orange cat gained a basic understanding of this world.
— — -this was a backward technological world.
The so-called Mechs were still only in the preliminary stages of research.
People loved to use cell phones.
Due to the existence of nuclear weapons, wars were mostly localized, surrogate methods.
The air was heavily polluted.
There had yet to be any breakthroughs in clean energy.
Overall, the world was still in its most prosperous stage of development.
Magic Dragon … was going to reincarnate in such a world.
While the orange cat was thinking, Magic Dragon's soul had arrived at a certain street and was pacing back and forth.
On one side of the street was a large hospital.
A woman was currently giving birth in the hospital.
Her family members were gathered in a large group, anxiously waiting outside the surgery room.
The Mystic Dragon stood silently in the void outside the window for a while.
The orange cat had also arrived, crouching on top of a tall building to silently observe this.
After a bit of hesitation, Magic Dragon abruptly turned around and left.
He went past the hospital and arrived on the other side of the street.
The slums.
He flew into a filthy, secluded alleyway and stood at the very end of it.
Next to a pile of garbage, a 5-6 years old child was lying on the ground, his body already cold.
Even in death, he was still in the same position of searching through the garbage.
Seems like this child most likely starved to death, or perhaps he ate something unhealthy and died of an illness.
Magic Dragon carefully observed the child.
Several pairs of feet hurriedly walked past the child.
A long while later.
No one came to take care of this corpse.
After all, this was the slums, so this wasn't a rare occurrence.
Perhaps someone would have to wait until the night passed and the sky brightened before someone would come here to take care of the corpse.
A few moments later, Magic Dragon no longer hesitated and his soul flew down.
The child slowly opened his eyes.
He laid on the ground, coughing non-stop.
After a while, the child finally stopped coughing and managed to stand up.
"Hah, what a weak body …"
The child uttered a mocking laugh that didn't match his age, then staggered as he stood up.
Snowflakes drifted down from the sky.
The cold wind continued to blow.
More and more people were gathering in the alleyway. Because it was getting dark, even the poor had a place to return to.
"Pah, no one wants a little bastard, I thought you were dead just now"
A spit fell on him.
A random passerby casually cursed and left without a care in the world.
The child stopped.
He didn't show any emotions, only indifference in his eyes.
He had already endured things a hundred times more difficult than this, so this small matter couldn't affect him at all.
Soon enough, he couldn't move anymore.
After a bit of thought, he leaned his body against the wall and slowly moved forward.
Before the sky completely darkened, he had to find a place to stay warm, otherwise, today would be a very difficult day.
Survive.
This was the first lesson of his brand new life.
At the top of the skyscraper.
The orange cat silently watched this.
"Gongzi, look, he could've — –"
"He probably isn't used to familial love, after all, he's been alone for so many years"
"That's why he found a corpse?"
"… Hm … after being a spy for so long, I'm guessing it would be very hard for him to trust anyone …"
…
The child sat down in a corner of the alleyway.
He found a few large plastic items that would be able to withstand today's cold weather.
He could only hope that the snow tonight wouldn't be too heavy, that would be troublesome.
The child leaned against the wall and silently sat down, preparing to endure this cold night.
Countless scriptures that he had practiced in the past appeared in his mind.
Unfortunately, this body is too weak, and it's still sick, so I can't do anything.
If only I had something to eat …
A gust of cold wind blew past.
The child lowered his head and curled up his body.
All of a sudden.
He saw a small figure.
It was an orange cat.
The orange cat held a basket in his mouth and silently walked in front of him.
Inside the basket was a bottle of warm milk, as well as a few pieces of bread.
The orange cat put the basket down, 'meow', then crouched down without moving.
The child looked at the orange cat with a cold and emotionless gaze.
The orange cat stared at the child and pushed the basket with his paw.
A few moments later.
The child finally reached his hand out and took the milk.
"Hmph, mind your own business"
He said in dissatisfaction, then turned his head away.
