As soon as Gu Qing Shan found out about the truth of the matter.
At the end of the Tomb River.
There was a large tomb here.
In front of the tomb, three old men were hovering in the air.
They were the three Wraith Lords of the Wraith realm!
Surrounding them, the people of the Wraith realm were all kneeling on the ground, at a glance, there were over a thousand of them.
Among them, there were even some who weren't wearing yaksha masks.
They were the guards of this tomb, the three Wraith Lords had used some unknown method to subdue them and turn them into their subordinates.
Everyone was completely silent, even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard.
They seemed to be waiting for something.
A few moments later.
A man wearing a yaksha mask descended from above, knelt on one knee in front of the three Wraith Lords, and spoke:
"Wraith Lords, the main fragments have been collected, we can depart at any time"
One of the Wraith Lords replied:
"Hm, in truth, it doesn't matter if we have the fragments or not. With so many worlds under our control, we naturally have a way to reforge this sword"
Another Wraith Lord casually said: "Then let's go, take this Samsara Delimitation Sword with us and return"
The third Wraith Lord said: "What's the hurry, let me take a look at this tomb — — this is the True Samsara Tomb manifested from the fusion of 99% of the Beast King realm's fragments"
His gaze was full of admiration as he looked straight ahead.
The other two Wraith Lords followed his gaze, only to see that this True Samsara Tomb was completely made from a giant sword carved from rock.
The giant sword was stabbed deep into the ground.
At the point where the sword and the ground connected, countless strange creatures were carved, all of them displaying expressions of pain.
"61 types of creatures" one of the old men said.
"In other words, among the 61 inheritances hidden here, the only one of them, [Ethereal], had already disappeared, and it was our true target" another old man regretfully said.
The third old man said: "We'll talk about the inheritances later, right now, we have to leave"
The other two Wraith Lords both nodded.
"The Delimitation Sword has been taken away by us, all the Apocalypses are about to erupt, it seems the Tomb of Myriad Beasts will once again turn into countless fragmented worlds"
"There's not much time left, about half a minute later, everything here will be destroyed, followed by the Tomb of Myriad Beasts …"
The three Wraith Lords stopped talking.
They brought a large number of Wraith realm humans with them and left this place.
…
"So that's how it is, once the Wraith realm cultivators take that sword away, the great tomb would no longer have any treasures to suppress the Apocalypses, all of the Apocalypses would come out in full force, pouring into the Tomb of Myriad Beasts …"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan glanced at Shan Hai Qi Xia.
Her face turned pale.
— — all Apocalypses would descend upon the Tomb of Myriad Beasts.
This wasn't an illusion, but countless real apocalypses.
Under the torrent of the Endless Doomsday, everything would be completely destroyed.
Gu Qing Shan grabbed her hand and pressed it hard, signaling her not to give herself away.
As the wife of the War Shaman, she would never reveal any emotions for the sake of the Tomb of Myriad Beasts and humanity's destruction.
Shan Hai Qi Xia understood and forced herself to appear calm.
Gu Qing Shan held the Nine Serenity Yin Incantation Jade Plate in her hand and passed this message to NEET Gu Qing Shan. At the same time, she looked at the monsters and asked, "Did you guys have any good targets before?"
One of the monsters replied: "We found a certain graveyard that contained a very powerful Apocalypse, and there were a lot of sword fragments guarding that graveyard"
"If that's the case, after we enter, we'll go and collect those fragments" Gu Qing Shan said.
The monsters replied in unison: "Yes, your grace"
The Wraith's corpse continued to float forward.
Shan Hai Qi Xia felt extremely guilty, but there was nothing she could do other than hold Gu Qing Shan's hand tightly, unable to say anything for now.
All of a sudden.
Gu Qing Shan noticed something and reached his hand into the void of space.
The Nine Serenity Yin Incantation Jade Plate returned to his hand.
NEET Gu Qing Shan's voice resounded from his Thought Sea:
"All the Apocalypses will erupt? It's over, I can't do anything about it, what about you? "
Gu Qing Shan silently chuckled bitterly, then silently sent her voice:
"It was already so hard to deal with a single illusion, if a real Apocalypse appears, just the two of us wouldn't be able to deal with it"
— — not to mention, it wasn't just a single real Apocalypse, but all of them.
As soon as he put the Nine Serenity Yin Incantation Jade Plate into the void of space, it returned.
NEET Gu Qing Shan's voice resounded: "Oi, be careful, an Apocalypse illusion that I've never seen before is heading towards you, it's very fast — — oh no, you won't be able to dodge it"
Gu Qing Shan's heart sank.
"Watch out!"
He let out a roar.
Everyone was confused.
Suddenly, a mass of light flew towards them from the front of the Tomb River.
This mass of light was so fast that it was almost as fast as a thought, as soon as they saw it, they were already enveloped by it.
Sha — —
Everyone was sucked into the mass of light and disappeared.
A few moments later.
The Wraith's corpse that had been floating above the Tomb River also disappeared.
…
The world was spinning.
Gu Qing Shan landed on the ground.
Following that, Shan Hai Qi Xia also landed.
Around them was a city ruin that stretched as far as the eye could see.
The monsters were clearly not here, so they were transported somewhere else.
"Another Apocalypse illusion" Gu Qing Shan felt a headache coming on.
All the sealed Apocalypses were about to erupt, but I was transported into another Apocalypse illusion at this crucial moment.
— — wait a minute.
If I stay within a certain Apocalypse illusion, would I be able to avoid the other Apocalypses?
For example, would I be able to avoid the long-cheeked skull while I'm in this illusion?
That Apocalypse was too terrifying, a single glance from it was enough to separate them from time and space, forever falling into a state of emptiness.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, Shan Hai Qi Xia was covering her face with her hand, silently crying.
"I have no way to save anyone" she said while crying.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
Not too long after I entered this world, the Wraith realm had already taken away the Delimitation Sword.
It's too late.
I don't know, I can't predict, I can't do anything.
There's nothing I can do.
Right now, the Wraith realm is about to release all of the Apocalypses.
— — or have they already left and released all of them?
This is a state of despair that doesn't give me any chances.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, four swords suddenly manifested behind him.
Shan Hai Qi Xia also sensed it, so she took out the small bell and looked forward with him.
A wraith was standing on top of a broken wall.
Its entire body was composed of drifting black fog, the thick fog outlined its vicious facial features.
"It's you!"
Gu Qing Shan and Shan Hai Qi Xia both called out.
— — this wraith's appearance and form were the same as the wraith's corpse that carried them into the Tomb River earlier.
It spoke: "Time is of the essence, let's keep this short"
"After the guards betrayed us, the illusions of the Apocalypses began to seep out from the great tomb. I had no choice but to split myself into many fragments and use them to suppress various parts of the great tomb, but I've been unable to hold on for much longer"
"According to my original plan, I was going to choose a master from among those who entered the great tomb to help me stabilize the Apocalypses."
"Unfortunately, it was too late, just now, the Wraith realm had already taken my main body away"
"Without my main body, all of the Apocalypses would immediately erupt"
At this point, it paused and looked at the two of them.
Gu Qing Shan continued: "So, you're that sword's sword spirit? No wonder you weren't caught up in every Apocalypse, instead continuously sending people into the Tomb River — — I assume that the illusions of the Apocalypses that appeared earlier were drawn by you as well, to test and choose a master? "
"That's correct, the Wraith realm's people are too powerful, causing the situation to go beyond my expectations, I don't have the time to choose"
The wraith made of black fog looked at Gu Qing Shan and raised its hand.
In its hand was a section of pure black wood carved into two wraith heads, intertwining to form a handle.
The sword handle.
It continued: "This is the sword handle that I've hidden away, as long as the Wraith realm's people don't obtain this sword handle, they won't be able to fully control me"
"The situation is urgent, so I hope that you can take this sword handle and quickly escape from this great tomb"
"If you can take me with you and immediately escape, I shall bestow upon you a few inheritances from the great tomb. These inheritances are not like the [Ethereal] that you possess, they can be studied by multiple people, capable of helping the people around you to quickly grow stronger"
"After that, I will follow you to the Wraith realm and think of a way to reclaim the sword body"
"If you perform exceptionally well during this process, I will also consider accepting you as my master — — but not now"
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan fell silent.
This time, the Wraith artifact spirit felt strange.
I'm the artifact spirit of a World Deity artifact of the sixth realm, how many people would go insane hearing me say such a thing?
But he remained silent.
— — what is he thinking?
The Wraith artifact spirit continued: "All of the Apocalypses are about to erupt, do you intend to stay here? You're alone, you won't be able to change this, and you won't be able to destroy all of the Apocalypses. This is a complete collapse, no one can do anything about it "
"— — that's why, take me with you and leave right now!"
Gu Qing Shan still said nothing.
He turned to Shan Hai Qi Xia.
Shan Hai Qi Xia was on the verge of collapsing.
"The Tomb of Myriad Beasts … is about to be destroyed" she silently shed tears and muttered.
Gu Qing Shan sighed: "That's right, it's already too late to evacuate those people"
Li Qiu Yu and her sister, Zhao Qiong, Wang Shun, and the rest will all die within the Apocalypse.
Those people, the people of the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, will all die within the endless Apocalypse.
At this point, the Wraith artifact spirit turned into black fog, completely entered the sword hilt, and flew in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Its voice resounded again:
"Gu Qing Shan! There's not much time left, I've trapped those traitorous guards, we need to take this chance to escape! "
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a brief moment, then spoke up: "I … still want to try …"
Shan Hai Qi Xia abruptly looked up, wiped her tears, and looked at him.
She opened her mouth slightly, but didn't dare to ask anything.
She was afraid that he would say something that would make her feel even more despair.
The Wraith artifact spirit scoffed: "You? You're indeed powerful, but before the endless Apocalypse, everyone is nothing but an ant "
"That's right" Gu Qing Shan admitted, "all of us are nothing but ants in front of the Apocalypse"
His gaze turned to Shan Hai Qi Xia.
"I've agreed to help you" he said.
Shan Hai Qi Xia looked back at him.
"I'll say this first, I can only try, if there's really no other way, we'll have to retreat — — after all, we can't just stay here and die" he said.
Shan Hai Qi Xia grabbed his hand and spoke with a trembling voice: "I, Shan Hai Qi Xia, hereby swear! I am the only person in the entire Tomb of Myriad Beasts who has obtained the inheritance and whose soul still remains. I represent all Combatants of the Tomb of Myriad Beasts who know everything in secret to form an alliance of life and death with you! "
Gu Qing Shan nodded, then turned to the sword hilt shrouded in black fog and said: "Wait a moment"
The Wraith artifact spirit's voice resounded: "What else do you want?"
Gu Qing Shan wielded the twin swords Heaven and Earth.
"Luo Bingli" he silently called out.
"Hm? I'm here "Luo Bingli's voice resounded.
"I remember back in the Age of Old, you were the one who put away all the components of the Eternal Abyss aside from the twin swords Heaven and Earth" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Your eyes are truly sharp, that is indeed the case" Luo Bingli replied.
Gu Qing Shan continued: "I remember … when Lin was hiding in the shadows, you asked me to guess your identity — — in truth, you were the artifact spirit of that Eternal Abyssal weapon. You were already born when the weapon was created, and the twin swords Heaven and Earth should be called: Abyssal Soul Artifact, the main body of the Eternal Abyssal weapon, the evil suppressor of the bottomless Abyss, the protector of extinction, the sword that betrays fate, the key to infinite worlds"
Luo Bingli slowly understood, then displayed an expression of disbelief.
Gu Qing Shan's eyes flickered with a faint glow as she muttered: "This matter is very troublesome, very troublesome, I could die if I'm not careful. Furthermore, even if I die, I wouldn't be able to save those people, the Tomb of Myriad Beasts. As the saying goes, it's hard to clap with only one hand — —"
Luo Bingli stayed silent for a bit, then said in a convinced tone: "Which means, what you want to do is — — -"
"Since I can't deal with the current situation by myself, I want to quickly make a trip to a parallel world" Gu Qing Shan paused, then continued: "The only problem is, even if I go to a parallel world, no one would easily believe me in such a short amount of time"
"That's why I'm going to gather some of my subordinates as reinforcements for this battle"
