After Li Qiu Yu left, Gu Qing Shan and Zhao Qiong stood still and waited.
Gu Qing Shan pondered and asked: "Senior Zhao, just now, she said that she was going to deal with a recorded Apocalypse, what does that mean?"
Zhao Qiong looked around, saw that they were all normal people, and whispered: "The so-called 'recorded Apocalypse' refers to the lowest-level Apocalypse that has been thoroughly investigated, we have a set procedure to eliminate them. There aren't many of these Apocalypses, and in truth, we can only fight against the majority of Apocalypses without being able to eliminate them"
"— — -also, make sure not to casually ask these questions after entering the School"
"Why not?" Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked.
"That's because in a truly great Sect, the 'Secrets' that have been discovered and the 'Mysteries' that have yet to be verified are both unique and valuable items that cannot be measured with money. You must have certain qualifications before you are allowed to trade and obtain the 'Secrets' or 'Mysteries' of the corresponding grade" Zhao Qiong explained.
Gu Qing Shan immediately said gratefully: "Thank you, senior Zhao, for telling me such a secret for no reason at all"
Zhao Qiong smiled and raised the ice cream in her hand: "It'll be offset by this ice cream"
Gu Qing Shan also smiled, but she knew that a single ice cream wasn't worth such a secret.
Zhao Qiong was actually quite a decent person, both in terms of personal research and the way she treated others.
Thinking about it from another perspective, it turns out that the most important things in this Tomb of Myriad Beasts are 'secrets' and 'mysteries'.
I wonder how far this world's understanding of the Apocalypses, the Samsara, and the infinite worlds has progressed.
In the previous battlefield, the wraiths all ignored the people of the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, which means that the wraiths don't dare to offend the Tomb of Myriad Beasts.
Although I came from the 900 million World Layers, traveled to the Age of Old, and even met with the Awaitings, there might still be some secrets that even I don't know about in this Tomb of Myriad Beasts.
Gu Qing Shan felt a sense of anticipation.
At this point, he was no longer in a hurry to enter the Wraith realm.
He and Zhao Qiong waited for about 15 minutes.
A tall and slender woman holding a fan descended from above.
— — -the Painted Bones Serenity, Li Qiu Yu.
The wind blowing from the canal caressed her hair and long skirt. Under the reflection of the water, she looked exceptionally beautiful and moving.
"Alright, we can go back now."
She touched Gu Qing Shan's head and said.
At this time, Gu Qing Shan was disguised as a fourteen or fifteen year old Li San Lang. His height only reached her chest. She could touch his head with one hand.
— — For some reason, this little guy's head was really comfortable to touch, even more so than those of his pets.
"Painted Bones Serenity, are we going to directly teleport back?" Zhao Qiong politely asked.
"No, I just received news that the School was conducting a research experiment this morning and accidentally released a troublesome Apocalypse. Teleporting directly might be a bit dangerous, so we're flying back" Li Qiu Yu said.
"— — Ah, right, Zhao Qiong, you can just call me by my name from now on" she added.
Zhao Qiong panicked and hurriedly said: "Your excellency — –"
Li Qiu Yu cut her off: "No need to call me 'your excellency'. You've done an excellent job over the past few years, your identification, collection, and research of spirit linked bones had already surpassed the other Schools, not to mention that piece of scale, as well as this child — — -"
She put her hand on Gu Qing Shan's head and stroked it again, then continued: "Because of that, the School has already decided to promote you to the same rank as me when we return"
Zhao Qiong froze, apparently still unable to digest this good news.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "Then, can we leave now?"
"Yes, we should go."
Saying so, Li Qiu Yu opened the fan in her other hand.
The surface of the fan was completely white with only a few floating flowers on it. The entire fan was giving off a drifting green light.
With a closer look, the green light was all coming from the 12 white bone fragments that formed the core of the fan.
A Bone Master?
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
Li Qiu Yu lightly waved the fan. Instantly, a snow-white leopard appeared on the surface of the fan.
The leopard's body trembled, then landed on the ground. Its body slowly grew until it was 7-8 meters long.
It crouched on the ground, looking at the three of them.
"Let's go, we're returning to the Sect" Li Qiu Yu said.
Under her guidance, Zhao Qiong and Gu Qing Shan sat on the snow-white leopard's back.
The snow-white leopard stood up, slowly ran a few steps, then abruptly leapt into the air. Its speed gradually increased until it reached the sky in the blink of an eye.
It was running through the clouds as if it was running on flat ground.
Sitting on the snow-white leopard's back, Gu Qing Shan silently marveled at its speed.
The wind in the sky as well as the low temperature were completely blocked out by the leopard's presence.
The leopard's speed was extremely fast, but it was also very stable, and it was actually very comfortable to sit on.
An hour later.
The snow-white leopard had already crossed the mountains, rivers, and oceans, landing on a barren desert.
— — -there was a fixed warp point from the Eastern Desolate Grotto to the Western Sea Grotto here.
Li Qiu Yu ordered: "We're going to wait here until nightfall, then leave the Eastern Desolate Grotto — — - hey, little brother Qiu Shan, us two women are very delicate, we've been exposed to the sun and wind every day, so our skin is already tanned. We need to rest and do some skin care. You used to be a follower of a young master in the clan, so you should know how to cook and brew tea, so I'll leave this to you"
Gu Qing Shan opened her mouth a few times, then finally spat out a single word: "Alright"
…
Nightfall.
The three of them arrived at the westernmost part of the barren desert, standing in front of a rock about half a meter tall.
"Let's go, I'll go up first" Li Qiu Yu said.
She leapt onto the rock and abruptly disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan copied her and also leapt onto the rock, then froze.
Standing on top of the rock, she could no longer see the barren desert, only an abandoned cave in front of her.
Gu Qing Shan looked down.
She was currently standing in a deep crater at the bottom of the cave.
The rock was being stepped on by him.
"Come up"
Li Qiu Yu was worried that he didn't know any martial arts, so she reached out to pull him up from the crater.
Following that, Zhao Qiong also appeared in the crater.
The three of them left the cave together and arrived at the edge of the cliff.
— — just like the last time they entered the Eastern Desolate Grotto, they would have to jump down again.
Li Qiu Yu glanced at the low-quality metal bracelet on Gu Qing Shan's hand and scoffed: "Don't ever use this again, you're a disgrace to our School of Shan Hai"
She took out a bracelet made of bone and tossed it to Gu Qing Shan.
"Put this on, then jump"
Gu Qing Shan received it and checked.
[White Bone Desolate Beast Bracelet, a symbol of identity in the School of Shan Hai, able to travel through the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, enter the Western Sea Grotto, and arrive at the vicinity of the School of Shan Hai's territory]
[This bracelet can summon two white bone beasts to fight for you]
[Owner: Li Qiu Yu]
Gu Qing Shan casually threw the metal bracelet away, then put on the bone bracelet.
He looked down at the bottom of the cliff, then leapt down.
The wind howled.
On the walls of the cliff, countless skeletons gave off a terrible and cruel presence.
The presence was rushing towards Gu Qing Shan.
At this point, the white bone bracelet glowed faintly.
Through this faint light, numerous powerful thoughts swept past Gu Qing Shan's body, then moved away, allowing him to continue falling.
All of a sudden, there was a flash of light.
Gu Qing Shan felt the world spinning around him. The scenery around him abruptly changed as his feet fell into the water.
A new world appeared.
Gu Qing Shan found himself standing in the middle of a boundless ocean.
Above the surging waves of the ocean was a tall mountain hanging upside down.
This mountain took up the entire sky, hidden within the misty clouds without any end in sight.
"Mountains and Seas … School of Shan Hai, so that's what it is" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
Splash!
He fell into the water.
