Let's rewind time a bit.
The Saint Spirit world.
The Frost empire.
Red Wraith descended from above, landing in the Empire's royal palace.
Including the king and Empress, everyone bowed to greet him.
"I've already killed that young man called Rhode" Red Wraith said.
Everyone looked up in confusion.
The king doubtfully asked: "Sir, didn't you go to assassinate the Roland emperor?"
Red Wraith shook his head: "The Roland emperor is an opponent that we completely understand, that Rhode is the true variable, I have to kill him before he can do anything"
"Sir, the Roland empire is currently in a stalemate with us, more and more Combatants are joining the war, we don't have much time left" the king said.
The Prime Minister added: "Furthermore, other than the world where the monsters are extinct, sir, we've discovered a new world"
"Ah? What kind of world is it? "Red Wraith asked with interest.
"A world destroyed by the Plague Apocalypse, it's currently fusing with the Saint Spirit world" the Prime Minister replied.
"What do you think?" Red Wraith asked.
The king replied: "There are too few compatriots left in the Saint Spirit world, and we can't contact them on the outside, with just the few of us, it will be a bit difficult to defeat the Combatants of the Roland empire"
The Prime Minister added: "If we can guide that Plague Apocalypse to descend upon the Roland empire on a large scale, our chances of victory will increase quite a bit"
"But this is very risky, because of this level"
Red Wraith didn't say anything and simply paced around.
The entire palace was silent. The wraiths who had taken over bodies silently waited for Red Wraith's decision.
After a while, Red Wraith asked:
"Plague Apocalypse … do we have any records of it?"
A wraiths who looked like a historian replied: "Sir, we do. The Plague Apocalypse is Unsolvable, the most dangerous"
Unsolvable was the lowest of the four Apocalypses.
The reason why the army of Void City upgraded the Plague Apocalypse to Unlivable and didn't dare to send anyone else to fight was because they didn't know that this place was actually the fusion of three worlds.
Hearing that, Red Wraith appeared relaxed and replied: "Even if it's' most dangerous', an Unsolvable Apocalypse shouldn't have those truly terrifying things"
"At most, there would only be a few tools responsible for spreading the plague, but now that the worlds are separated, those tools wouldn't be able to summon messengers"
"As long as we don't disturb that artifact …"
"I can try to guide the plague in the dark."
Having made up his mind, Red Wraith abruptly looked up to observe everyone around him.
Everyone immediately knelt on one knee and bowed their heads.
"Sir, please instruct me."
Red Wraith said: "Unseal the strongest body, I want to use it"
"Yes."
Everyone remained kneeling on the ground. Only the King, Empress, the Prime Minister, the Minister of Military Affairs, the Marshal, and the Church's Consulate General stood up.
Each of them held a talisman in their hands and shouted,
"Seal — Open!"
There was a flash.
The talismans in their hands quickly burned away, but a series of iron chains appeared in the void.
All the iron chains collapsed.
Then, a coffin gently landed on the ground.
It was a greyish white stone coffin with a huge talisman pasted on it.
The talisman suddenly turned into ashes.
Bang!
The coffin opened.
A corpse covered in crimson talismans appeared in front of everyone.
Red Wraith turned into a cloud of mist and flew into the corpse.
A few moments later.
The corpse slightly moved and stood up from the coffin.
The crimson talisman began to burn.
A set of crimson full-body armor manifested out of thin air, scattered into various constructs, and covered the corpse's body.
Following that, a yaksha mask descended from above and attached itself to the corpse's face.
The corpse raised his hand, opened his palm, and lightly closed — —
Hoh!
An intense gust of wind abruptly manifested, blowing across the entire conference hall.
An invisible pressure that caused everyone to feel suffocated abruptly manifested.
Everyone was firmly pressed to the ground, unable to even budge an inch.
"Hm, with the power of this heavenly being's corpse and all of my strength, there shouldn't be any issues" Red Wraith's voice resounded from behind the yaksha mask.
He casually drew a mystical trajectory in the void of space.
The crimson talisman manifested out of thin air and quickly burned.
A large hole was burnt in the void of space, from which one could faintly see the scene on the other side. It was a world shrouded in faint yellow mist.
The Heavenly Being's corpse wearing the yaksha mask stood there without moving.
It observed the world on the other side and focused its gaze.
Red Wraith's voice resounded again:
"It truly is an Unsolvable Apocalypse"
"Very well, I'll go take a look at that plague world and see if I can guide the plague to descend upon the Saint Spirit world"
"After I leave, you will carefully deal with the matters at the frontlines"
Everyone replied in unison: "Yes, sir!"
Only the king had a hesitant expression on his face.
Red Wraith no longer looked at his subordinates and quickly walked into the hole in space.
The hole slowly closed up.
The king suddenly stood up and asked everyone: "Sir, did you bring your weapon?"
The military minister was surprised and replied: "Originally, it was inside the heavenly being's Inventory Bag, but sir asked me to carve a few runes on it, so I took it out"
Everyone felt tense.
"Are you done yet?" the king shouted.
"I'm done" the military minister hurriedly took out two blades and replied.
The king took the blades and took a deep breath: "I'll give them to sir, I hope he won't be angered by your careless mistake"
…
Red Wraith appeared in the sky.
A thin layer of mist drifted into the distance along with the intense wind in the sky.
Red Wraith observed for a few moments, then muttered:
"The direction this mist is drifting towards should be that monster's extinct world"
He casually drew a line with his finger.
A talisman manifested.
[The three worlds are currently fusing, their borders are intersecting]
[If that's the case, I only need to change the direction of the wind …]
The talisman began to burn.
In the sky, the wind stopped for a brief moment.
Suddenly, the wind appeared again, but this time, it had changed direction.
Red Wraith observed for a while, then shook his head.
To change the direction of the wind towards the Saint Spirit world and the Roland empire, he needed to adjust it a bit more.
Right now, the wind was simply creating more upward force to prevent the mist from easily falling down.
In truth, it wasn't too hard for Red Wraith to adjust the direction of the wind.
The key was that the change in the wind had to be natural and couldn't be noticed by a certain artifact within this Apocalypse.
This was the difficult part.
Just as Red Wraith was about to draw another talisman, he suddenly stopped and muttered:
"What an ominous feeling … will I be discovered?"
He drew a line of blood on his neck, dipped his finger in the blood, and lightly drew a line in the void of space.
"Complete concealment, I need a — —"
— — as we've said, the weapons of the Wraith realm contain Causality Law, Guise Hex techniques are guaranteed to hit, Life Talismans are unpredictable, activated at the cost of one's life, extremely difficult to deal with.
Before Red Wraith finished his words, that event had already occurred.
That event was within [True Luck], something that should have been impossible to happen.
The sky, the wind, the layer of clouds, and the fog below.
From the depths of that completely undetectable world, a crimson streak of light shot out like a bolt of lightning.
In the blink of an eye, this crimson Life Talisman struck Red Wraith.
"Wu wu wu wu wu wu! This is [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit]! "
"What exactly is — —"
For the first time, Red Wraith's voice contained a bit of panic.
Life Talismans were his foundation, so he naturally knew how to undo the [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit] talisman. However — —
The price was the majority of this heavenly being's power!
But I can't hesitate any longer.
Red Wraith clenched his teeth, endured the pain, and immediately made his decision.
He stopped drawing the original talisman and turned his finger to draw another talisman that could undo [Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit].
The talisman was completed!
A dark green glow began to radiate from the talisman.
The talisman disappeared.
All the dark green light converged into a cluster and was about to enter Red Wraith's body when a hole appeared in the void of space.
A pair of hands reached out.
— — both hands were wielding two blades.
At the same time, the respectful voice of the Frost Empire's king also appeared:
"Sir, you forgot to bring your weapons"
The dark green light directly crashed into the void of space, bringing the two blades and the king's fearful 'forgive me, sir' before completely disappearing without a trace.
Everything in the sky returned to normal.
Red Wraith was stunned.
He was temporarily speechless, then quickly blacked out and fainted.
In the sky, the wind continued to howl.
The changed direction of the wind allowed Red Wraith to hover, fly, and move in a disorderly manner.
Not too long later.
Flashes of white light abruptly appeared from deep underground.
Light and darkness intertwined.
Air currents surged.
A storm of blood.
Red Wraith abruptly stood up and muttered: "So noisy …"
"Damn it!"
His body shook and flew towards the direction of the commotion.
…
Deep within the desert.
「 State your choice … 」 the humanoid statue said.
Gu Qing Shan was quickly thinking of a solution.
All of a sudden — — -
In the sky, a figure was quickly descending.
So fast!
Who is it?
Gu Qing Shan and the humanoid statue both turned to look.
Boom!
The figure landed not too far away from the humanoid statue and Gu Qing Shan.
A man wearing a yaksha mask jumped out from the faint yellow fog, looking at Gu Qing Shan and the humanoid statue.
「 You're so noisy, just die! 」
The wraith roared in irritation.
