Hoh … hoh … hoh …
Gu Qing Shan sat up from the collapsed metal slab and breathed heavily.
The long-cheeked skull formed by the mist gave him an unprecedented pressure.
If he was glanced at by that skull, death would be his only fate.
No living being could resist such an Apocalypse.
I don't know …
How many more of such Apocalypses are there?
Is there an Apocalypse more terrifying than this one in the great tomb?
Even the Lord of the Space-Time Mystery Nest only had a strand of hair left before he managed to escape.
The Dark Void Matriarch only had a single finger left, still floating in the river without a chance to come out.
But after the Dark Void Matriarch met Gu Qing Shan, she was able to curse Gu Qing Shan to death with a single finger.
Even the existence that had passed the inheritance to him had become so powerful that it was almost unimaginable.
Even it was trapped in the tomb.
Gu Qing Shan sighed, feeling that despite how vast the infinite worlds were, there wasn't a single ray of light that could pierce through the Apocalypse.
In the darkness, he sat there, recalling everything that he had seen so far.
He slowly fell into thought.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared in front of him:
[Through constant practice, you've adeptly grasped the cloning technique: 'Night Cruiser']
[You may now begin to practice the new cloning technique: 'Day Cruiser']
[Day Cruiser: Using the Night Cruiser cloning technique as the foundation, you will be able to perform this cloning technique even during the day]
Reading these lines of glowing text, Gu Qing Shan fell into thought for a long while.
"War God UI, I have a question" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[The current situation is not within the system's control, so the system will always be in a state of high vigilance. If you take the time to answer a question, 1000 Soul Points will be deducted, please ask your question seriously] the War God UI replied.
Gu Qing Shan didn't care about the Soul Points and simply asked: "Listen, when I manifested Night Cruiser, all of my belongings followed me to the location of my clone. I want to know, did you also follow my clone to another location?"
[Correct] the War God UI replied.
1000 Soul Points were deducted.
"In other words, you don't know what state my main body is in?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
[Yes] the War God UI replied.
"Are you sure? Please ensure the accuracy of your answers. I don't want a wrong judgment to affect my final judgment. "Gu Qing Shan asked without any regard for her Soul Power.
The War God UI replied: [I can confirm it with absolute certainty. When your soul vessel left your main body and had yet to manifest your true body, your main body was still in a state of deep slumber at the very last moment of my observation]
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
This doppelganger technique was too amazing.
Just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
A door opened in the void, and the combat class teacher stood at the door, sizing him up.
"Li San Lang, class is over."
"Oh, alright. Thank you, teacher."
Gu Qing Shan got up, put the bedding into the bone bracelet, and walked out of the door.
"How was your practice today?" the combat teacher asked as he walked.
"Not bad, it's progressing very quickly. But when I sleep, I feel like I'm entering the dreamland too slowly" Gu Qing Shan complained.
The combat class teacher thought for a bit, then said: "I don't know what kind of inheritance you're trying to form spirit linking with, but I have my own thoughts on dreaming"
Gu Qing Shan's eyes lit up, then hurriedly asked: "Ah? Teacher, please tell me "
The combat class teacher replied: "People often say, what you think in the day, you dream at night. I think you should give yourself a hint before you go to sleep, telling yourself what kind of state you want to dream about"
"Hm, that makes sense, I'll have to think about it a bit more" Gu Qing Shan praised, then looked at the combat class teacher with a bit of respect.
The combat class teacher patted his shoulder and smiled: "Hm, do your best, you're the younger brother of those two, you'll definitely become this year's strongest disciple"
"Thank you for your encouragement, teacher" Gu Qing Shan thanked him.
"Alright, I'll talk to you later, you should go back and cook"
At the fork in the road, the combat class teacher nodded to Gu Qing Shan and walked down the other path.
Looking at his back, Gu Qing Shan's lips twitched, then suddenly called out: "Goodbye, teacher"
The combat class teacher waved his hand without turning around.
Gu Qing Shan stood at the fork in the road for two breaths' worth of time, then suddenly started to hum a happy tune.
Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Hsu-Còme
This was a song from the Study Lodge, every young man here knew how to sing it.
With a relaxed expression on his face, Gu Qing Shan slowly walked home while humming a tune.
With a relaxed expression on his face, Gu Qing Shan followed the road home, humming a tune as he slowly walked.
"Shannu, Earth sword, Chao Yin sword, don't show yourselves, listen to me"
"Shannu, Earth sword, Chao Yin sword, don't show yourselves and listen to me"
"Shannu, Earth sword, Chao Yin sword, don't show yourselves, listen to me"
"What is it?" the Earth sword asked.
Oong? The Chao Yin sword replied.
At this point, Gu Qing Shan ran into a fellow student and waved his hand to greet him.
While talking to that young man, he continued to send his voice in his mind:
"Heaven sword, Luo Bingli is currently sleeping, so I only have the three of you left. From now on, all of you need to be as focused as possible without losing focus for even a second"
"Why? Does gongzi feel like you're in danger?" Shannu hurriedly asked.
The Earth sword also replied: 「 But we've always been by your side, even when you turned into the 'Night Cruiser', we've still been by your side to protect you, as long as you don't go to that great tomb for now, there shouldn't be any major danger 」
The Chao Yin sword doubtfully replied.
Gu Qing Shan ran into another fellow student and smiled as he greeted him.
— — -school had just ended, so everyone had just left the Study Lodge and was about to return home, so it was natural that they ran into each other.
As Gu Qing Shan walked with the other students, he sent his voice in his mind:
"A lot of things haven't been confirmed yet, so I can only tell you one thing"
"Please go ahead, gongzi" Shannu replied.
"What kind of person do you think the Soul Shrieker is?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Shannu hesitated a bit, then answered: "Insane, unscrupulous, disregarding the lives of others, cold and merciless"
The Earth sword replied: 「 Sly, cruel, vengeful, never giving up until it achieves its goal 」
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Indeed, in order to forge the twin swords Heaven and Earth, it used all sorts of schemes to set up a trap in the Age of Old Heaven. After that, in the Fallen Zones, in order to cause [Chaos] to descend, it fought against the corpses summoned by the [Demon King Order] for a long period of time, finally causing the Era of [Chaos] to descend"
"It isn't an enemy that gives up easily"
"Gongzi, but it has already fused with Primal Chaos and completely disappeared — — - we've all seen this with our own eyes, why are you still doubting it?" Shannu asked.
The Earth sword also replied: 「 Gu Qing Shan, relax a bit, I think you're just being too cautious. You should know that a dead person wouldn't lie to you, not to mention a monster like the Soul Shrieker has already gone from being dead to completely disappearing 」
"That's right, a dead person wouldn't lie, that's why I can see the problem" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 What problem? 」 the Earth sword asked.
"An entity of its level, if it could once again attack me after death, it would definitely be extremely excited and do everything it could to make things difficult for me" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shannu couldn't help but say: "Gongzi, you have the Devil King Warden Rod, so it knows that messing with you will only result in its complete disappearance"
「 That's why it didn't dare to fight against you again 」 the Earth sword added.
"You're wrong"
Gu Qing Shan casually replied: "In the end, it fused into Primal Chaos and completely disappeared. This was the final destination it chose for itself"
"If it had already resolved itself to be fused into Primal Chaos, with its insane personality, why didn't it come and fight me to the death? After all, it's not afraid of anything anymore "
The three swords stopped, unable to say anything.
That's right, if it wasn't afraid of death, why would it say something like "you have the Devil King Warden Rod of Huang Quan" and give up on fighting against its enemy?
That doesn't make sense.
「 Perhaps it doesn't want to make things difficult for you anymore 」 the Earth sword said.
Gu Qing Shan resolutely answered: "No, when I asked it what kind of world the Dusty World was, it told me full of hatred that it would never tell me the truth"
Recalling that scene, Shannu muttered: "That's right … that means it still cares a lot about gongzi"
The Earth sword was a bit confused and asked: 「 If it still hates you and isn't afraid of its soul disappearing, why didn't it try to fight against you? 」
"That's right, it's already dead. I left the soul-absorbing shield to Jang Young-ho, so it had a chance to fight against me and see if it could kill me" Gu Qing Shan replied.
While talking to the three swords, he was also discussing what he learned from the practical combat class with the other students.
At this point, the three swords couldn't say anything anymore.
Who would've thought that a dead enemy would bring up such a complicated and confusing problem.
The more Shannu thought about it, the more scared she was, so she couldn't help but ask: "Gongzi, it really had a chance to kill you at the time, but why did it give up?"
Gu Qing Shan sent her voice: "I don't know if you noticed, but after it appeared, it first looked at me carefully, then slowly backed away"
The three swords recalled the scene at the time.
Oong! The Chao Yin sword was the first to respond.
「 Yes, that's right 」 the Earth sword confirmed.
"I also remember" Shannu said.
Gu Qing Shan continued: "At the time, I could sense its fear and despair. At first, I thought it was afraid of the Devil King Warden Rod, but after it fused with Primal Chaos, I felt like it wasn't afraid of the scepter"
Gu Qing Shan slowly sent her voice: "Under what circumstances would anyone give up on taking revenge on their enemy?"
「 He forgave his enemy? 」 the Earth sword asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "There are only two possibilities. The first is that he forgave his enemy — — this situation shouldn't have happened to the Soul Shrieker, I could clearly sense its hatred towards me"
"Then, there's only the second possibility"
"— — its enemy would face a fate even more terrible than if it had personally taken revenge"
"That fate made it feel like it didn't need to do anything else"
"In other words — –"
"And the thing that it feared and despaired about had already happened to me. Because of its deep hatred towards me as its enemy, it gave up on trying to kill me and allowed me to face that even worse fate"
Shannu's voice became tense: "Gongzi, what exactly is it? Why can't I sense anything at all?"
The Earth sword suddenly said: 「 Tell me quickly, Gu Qing Shan, I need to do everything I can to prepare for [Earth's Choice], no matter what kind of danger it might be — – 」
"There's no need to be too anxious, I'm simply planning ahead and telling you to be on guard"
Gu Qing Shan cut the Earth sword off and calmly said: "The dead truly don't lie. I'm very grateful for the Soul Shrieker's reappearance, it allowed us to notice the clues of Fate ahead of time"
"We still have a bit of time to save ourselves, so next — –"
He smiled, bid farewell to his classmates, and headed towards Li Qiu Yu's residence.
"Let us see the truth of this world"
