Gu Qing Shan didn't turn around.
He simply held the twin swords Heaven and Earth and asked: "Who are you?"
The sword-bearing man replied: "I should be the one asking you that. After all, this is the sealed grounds of our School of Shan Hai, I really don't understand how you managed to pass through the layers of seals and arrive here"
His sword qi was as vast as the ocean, tightly locked onto Gu Qing Shan's body, seemingly ready to unleash a fatal strike at any moment.
Gu Qing Shan smiled.
Through inner sight, he could see the other party.
— — -when he tested his fist technique at Shan Hai Qi Xia, he saw this sword-bearing man.
The other party was the bigshot of the School known as Banishing Sword Saint.
"So you are Banishing Sword Saint?" he asked in return.
A faint sword qi exuded from his body.
He put the Heaven sword away, wielded the Earth sword with one hand, and casually swung it.
His attitude angered the other party.
"I'm the one asking you!" Banishing Sword Saint abruptly shouted.
The sword on his back flashed and manifested into millions of flying swords that flowed like a great river across the sky, attacking Gu Qing Shan with unstoppable momentum.
Gu Qing Shan raised her sword.
Secret Art, [River Traversing Iron Sword]!
Countless sword images manifested on the Earth sword, manifesting into a gigantic sword phantom that blotted out the sun, blocking the hundreds of thousands of flying swords in the sky.
Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!
A thunderous storm of strikes resounded, enough to make one's scalp go numb.
However, no matter how the flying swords attacked with all their might, the gigantic sword phantom didn't budge at all.
"Very good" Gu Qing Shan loudly praised, "Sure enough, you are at the pinnacle of Sword Saint realm, if we were to truly fight, victory and defeat would be hard to say"
Above the pinnacle of Sword Saint realm was the Solitary Sword realm.
Their swordsmanship was about the same, not to mention that both of them had their own trump cards and trump cards, so if they were to fight, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Banishing Sword Saint raised his hand.
The millions of flying swords turned back into the same sword and returned to his hand.
"To be able to block a thousand of my attacks with a single sword, you do have some skill in sword techniques. However, a battle isn't just about sword techniques. If you still don't behave, I can guarantee that you won't be able to leave the School of Mountains and Seas alive," Banishing Sword Immortal said.
"I want to have a try." Gu Qing Shan still didn't turn her head and just said lightly.
— — it was rare for him to meet a sword cultivator who used a sword, and one whose level of swordsmanship was about the same as his own. At this moment, his fighting spirit boiled in his chest.
Banishing Sword Immortal's killing intent surged as he shouted, "You're courting death!"
He moved his sword and split it into millions of swords again.
Suddenly, a female voice sounded.
"Stop!"
Tens of thousands of rays of light descended from the sky, blocking the two of them.
It was a red-robed, long-haired woman with starlight shining between her brows.
— — the master of the School of Shan Hai, Shan Hai Qi Xia.
Then, a man with ten long sabers on his back, a bearded middle-aged man dressed in white, and a smiling old man appeared behind her.
Thousand Saints Blade Venerate Li Chun Dao, Extinguishing Saintly Hands Zhang Jiu Bai, Embracing Bones Old Man Xu You Hai, as well as Banishing Sword Immortal Wang Shun, the VIPs of the entire School of Mountains and Seas had all arrived.
Wang Shun sheathed his sword and respectfully said: "Dean, you've arrived"
"Hm"
Shan Hai Qi Xia replied, then turned her gaze to Gu Qing Shan.
She calmly said: "In the words of your cultivation world, Gu Qing Shan, fellow Dao seeker Gu, for what reason have you come to my School of Mountains and Seas?"
Gu Qing Shan sheathed her sword, feeling a bit regretful.
Thousand Saints Blade Venerate already knew of her existence, so Gu Qing Shan wasn't surprised at all that Shan Hai Qi Xia could recognize her.
— — unfortunately, with so many people on the other side, it seems this sparring session between sword cultivators couldn't continue.
Gu Qing Shan clasped her fist and said: "I was passing by your School today and sensed someone calling out to me, asking for help. I thought it might be someone I knew, so I came to take a look"
Everyone exchanged glances.
— — You've come to the deepest sealed area of our School?
Shan Hai Qi Xia's gaze flickered, then said: "Earlier in the Eastern Desolate Grotto, fellow Dao seeker Gu acted to eliminate an unknown apocalyptic monster and saved countless people. This was related to my School of Mountains and Seas, so I should be thanking fellow Dao seeker Gu, but — —"
"But how did I sneak into your School all of a sudden?" Gu Qing Shan smiled and asked.
"Indeed, please explain to me your excellency" Shan Hai Qi Xia replied.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then said: "How about this, what exactly does this place of yours do? Tell me about it, perhaps we might be able to work together to accomplish something"
Shan Hai Qi Xia fell silent.
The other party didn't answer my question, but instead asked me another.
This guy who single-handedly fought against three Deities in the Age of Old, has he always been this strong?
Thousand Saints Blade Venerate Li Chun Dao suddenly said: "Sword Saint Gu, you're alone, do you really think you can escape from under our noses?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Escape — — I won't escape, but if I want to leave, you won't be able to stop me"
He suddenly sighed, and with a sincere expression, he said, "There's no need to point your sword at me. I really want to figure out what's going on here. After all, the one who called for help could see through my identity."
"In truth, your excellency's background can be easily known by any world that collects information from the infinite worlds, why would your excellency care about an unknown entity?" Old Man Embracing Bones Xu You Hai asked.
Indeed.
This was the most suspicious part.
— — Gu Qing Shan wasn't a nameless individual, so it was normal for others to know his background. Yet he used this as an excuse to say that an acquaintance called for him.
Just because someone recognized him as Gu Qing Shan, he snuck into the deepest sealed area of the School of Mountains and Seas. How could anyone believe such nonsense?
Seeing their expressions, Gu Qing Shan also understood.
This School had always been fighting against the Apocalypse.
These people.
Worthy of admiration.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan said: "Very well, I'll tell you the truth. In the current era, no one knows who I am, nor where I came from. I can guarantee that none of you know this"
Everyone exchanged glances.
What exactly is he trying to say?
Shan Hai Qi Xia's expression changed: "You're telling the truth — — are you not Gu Qing Shan?"
"I am" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"But you're saying that we don't know where you came from, when we clearly know that you came from the Age of Old — —"
Shan Hai Qi Xia's voice abruptly stopped.
She fell into thought, then turned to Gu Qing Shan after a long while.
Gu Qing Shan pointed at the withered tree not too far behind him and said: "I'm only passing by, yet it already knows where I came from, so please tell me its secrets"
"I know that secrets are very valuable in your world, so I can use a few secrets to trade with you"
Shan Hai Qi Xia thought for a bit, then said: "If you can show some sincerity, this isn't impossible"
"Dean!" Banishing Sword Saint Wang Shun worriedly called out.
Shan Hai Qi Xia shook her head and said: "Sword Saint Gu is indeed not afraid of the current situation, so it's best that we be a bit more pragmatic"
"Furthermore, Sword Saint Gu had helped us before, so he shouldn't be an evil person. Our School of Shan Hai would naturally be more than happy to have another friend"
Hearing that, everyone thought about it and agreed.
This person came without a sound or a trace.
None of the defensive measures could trap or trigger him.
In any world, any organization, if they offended such a person, they would most likely have a headache.
The Dean is trying to turn this from a bad situation to a good one.
— — -it all depends on whether or not Gu Qing Shan is truly sincere in making a trade.
"To show sincerity …"
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then asked: "What secret do you want to know?"
"We need to discuss this" Shan Hai Qi Xia replied.
"Go ahead" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shan Hai Qi Xia casually created a soundproof barrier and discussed with the others.
After a while, they finally came to a decision.
Shan Hai Qi Xia dispelled the soundproof barrier, then smiled at Gu Qing Shan and said: "If your excellency is willing to trade secrets with our School, please first reveal your excellency's true identity"
"Ah, I can't tell you that" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Then, please tell us, which world did your excellency come from?"
"I can't tell you that either"
"Who is your master?"
"My apologies, I still can't tell you"
Everyone: "…"
— — brat, you're playing with us, aren't you?
Gu Qing Shan smiled and replied: "Ask again, I'll definitely tell you what I can"
Shan Hai Qi Xia calmed herself down a bit, then asked: "Is your excellency related to the Samsara?"
Gu Qing Shan pondered: "About that — — -"
Everyone's hearts jumped.
Gu Qing Shan waved her hand and took out a single-horned skeletal staff from the void of space.
"This humble one is the Huang Quan Devil King, a Deity of the Huang Quan realm, this much I can reveal"
Huang Quan realm!
The King of the Dead!
Everyone was shaken, their gazes moved back and forth on the bewitching and wicked scepter, unable to move away.
Shan Hai Qi Xia quickly said: "So your excellency is also a member of our Samsara. Did your excellency appear this time to reform Huang Quan?"
"No, my appearance this time is actually a secret, other than you, no one else in the infinite worlds knows about it"
Gu Qing Shan continued: "If I tell you, I hope that you can exchange the secret of that great tree with me"
Shan Hai Qi Xia nodded: "Very well"
Gu Qing Shan then said: "I came out this time to destroy the Wraith realm"
