Time passed by bit by bit.
Gu Qing Shan had been sitting on top of the cliff for a total of 8 days.
During these 8 days, he didn't do anything other than accumulate the spirit energy in his body.
The 9th day.
He finally opened his eyes.
A deep blue glow circled around his body, quickly enveloping the entire mountain peak, giving off flashes of lightning.
The lightning illuminated the entire world of darkness.
Gu Qing Shan slowly stood up and carefully sensed the spirit energy in his body.
It took him one day less than expected. His spirit energy had reached the required level, enough to support this breakthrough.
Between heaven and earth, an extremely faint sensation fell on his body.
This sensation was indescribable, as if the world itself was observing Gu Qing Shan.
For a brief moment, the world became silent. Gu Qing Shan stood alone on top of the mountain, surrounded by countless flashes of lightning, silently waiting for the situation to develop.
"Why do I feel like it's an identity test … War God UI, do you have any suggestions?"
Gu Qing Shan silently asked in his mind.
The War God UI lit up and replied: [Attempting to decipher it, please wait]
A few moments later.
A line of glowing text appeared:
[Your inheritance is a fist technique formed from the fusion of [Ethereal] and the Six Paths Great Mountain sword, but your most proficient combat style is swordsmanship. The Laws of Heaven and Earth are confused about this, so your advancement process has become stagnant]
Gu Qing Shan was a bit speechless.
"The Laws of Heaven and Earth can't even differentiate this?" he couldn't help but ask.
[This world is only a normal Cultivation-type world, its Origin is extremely weak, so it will affect your advancement to a certain extent] the War God UI replied.
"Is there a way to solve this?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
[You should go to a stronger world — — - any type of world is fine, the Samsara will borrow the world's powerful Origin power to manifest itself, only then will you be able to smoothly break through] the War God UI replied.
[Keep in mind, the stronger the Origin power of a world, the more powerful you will become after becoming a Star River Saint]
"Got it"
Gu Qing Shan stood on top of the mountain and silently thought for a while.
Should I go to the Tomb of Myriad Beasts?
It was too late. That world was too far away, and he had teleported directly from the Great Necropolis to Void City.
After grasping [Fog Realm Descent], I haven't returned to the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, which means I can't use Fog Realm Descent to return to that world.
What kind of world could be called powerful?
Gu Qing Shan raised her hand and looked at the chaotic proof of the World Will on her wrist.
The Saint Spirit World was the strongest world among the parallel worlds.
Now that it had fused with the other two worlds, it was likely that the entire world's Law Origin Energy would rise to a whole new level.
It was currently merging with the current flow of time and was about to become the most powerful world within the space vortex.
If he could break through in the Saint Spirit World, he would probably surpass the cultivators who became Galaxy Sages in the past.
In addition, he had chosen Yellow Springs. Based on his understanding of Yellow Springs, he would be stronger than those people after the Saint Selection!
Although the Saint Spirit World was evolving, he could still try to communicate with it. Maybe he could go there?
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and spoke to the World Proof on her wrist: "Will of the Saint Spirit world, I know that your world is currently evolving, but I'm currently in a bit of trouble, can you allow me to face my Tribulation in your world?"
No answer.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "It will be done very quickly, I won't disturb any of your matters"
No answer.
Gu Qing Shan sincerely persuaded them: "Me becoming stronger is actually a good thing, if you have any problems in the future, you can always come find me, we'll help each other out"
The World Proof didn't react at all.
Gu Qing Shan sighed: "Can't you at least tell me if you can or not?"
The World Proof abruptly gave off a cluster of light that manifested as an open gate in the air.
With a 'hoh' sound, Gu Qing Shan was sucked into the gate.
A split second later.
Gu Qing Shan found herself standing on top of a boundless blue ocean.
Below her feet was a large piece of ice floating on the surface of the ocean.
Thousands of voices resounded in her ears:
「 The ocean … is yours … the land is evolving, don't go 」
This was the voice of the world spirit.
Gu Qing Shan immediately replied: "Thank you, I'm more familiar with this environment, it's fine if I don't go to the land"
No answer.
The world spirit had left.
Gu Qing Shan closed her eyes and resumed her preparations.
A few moments later.
Deep blue lightning began to radiate from his body, spreading in every direction.
Between heaven and earth, an extremely faint sensation fell upon his body.
This sensation appeared again.
Both the sky and the sea were silent.
Gu Qing Shan stood on top of the boundless ocean, silently waiting.
All of a sudden, he sensed a certain thought.
Rather than a thought, it was actually some sort of understanding that appeared in his mind.
"How fast, as expected of the strongest world"
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
— — in this world, as soon as he triggered the Laws of heaven and earth, he was recognized by the Samsara.
And now, the Saint Selection had begun.
A second later — —
Gu Qing Shan abruptly looked up.
The entire world before his eyes faded away, and a giant tree that connected the heavens and the earth appeared in front of him.
「 My god, what is this? 」 the Earth sword's vibrating voice resounded.
"Not sure"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the giant tree.
Only to see that the top of the tree couldn't be seen, but the bottom of the tree had pierced deep into a vast expanse of murky river water.
Countless dead people were drifting along the river water towards a faraway place.
The giant tree stood still in the middle of the river.
"Forgetting River … why is there a tree on top of the Forgetting River?"
Gu Qing Shan muttered with a serious expression.
…
At another location.
After Gu Qing Shan was taken away by the Saint Spirit world's spirit.
The dark Cultivation-type world returned to silence, returning to silence.
A few dozen minutes later, two figures appeared in this world.
"There's no one" one of the figures muttered.
"That's right, I also noticed that Dragon King of Atrocity Jail doesn't seem to be here" the other figure said.
The two of them went silent for a few moments.
"How strange, Buttercup seems to have quite a close relationship with that evil creature, I thought she had borrowed a world for that evil creature"
"But that doesn't seem to be the case, we need to investigate the whereabouts of that Dragon King of Atrocity Jail again"
While they were talking, a female voice resounded from behind:
"You don't need to investigate"
Buttercup walked out from the darkness.
She appeared pure and beautiful, almost like a cute girl walking on a campus, completely different from this world of darkness.
No one could tell that she already had a child, and she herself was an extremely rare existence among ominous demons.
"Aha, Buttercup, we heard that you borrowed a world from the Tower Master, so we came to take a look out of curiosity"
"That's right, we wanted to see if there was anything we could help you with"
The two figures spoke flatteringly and showed themselves.
They were members of the Ominous Demon Tower.
Two muscular adult men hurriedly walked towards Buttercup with smiles on their faces.
Buttercup looked at them without changing her expression, then casually drew a Card.
"No wonder he gave me this Card, saying that it might be useful at some point" Buttercup muttered.
As soon as the two men saw the Card, their expressions changed.
One of them shouted: "It's the Card used for the examination!"
The other shouted: "Oh no, run!"
Their figures flashed and disappeared without a trace.
But Buttercup still held the Card in her hand, not in a hurry to throw it out.
She looked at the Card from side to side for a while, then asked with interest: "So this is an Inner Plane Card? I wonder if there are any Scroll Users in the Inner Plane, and what kind of scrolls they use "
After a while, she put the card away and carefully put it away.
At this point, specks of blood began to sprinkle down from the sky.
"You're looking down on me too much" Buttercup sighed and shook her head: "Do I really need to use this Card to kill you?"
In the sky, the two muscular men were pierced through by countless sharp bone spikes and froze in place, unable to move.
These countless bone spikes covered the entire sky, with only a single thin bone spike hanging down from above, connected to Buttercup's left pinky finger.
— — -so all the bone spikes in the sky originated from her pinky finger.
Buttercup slightly opened her mouth and lightly inhaled.
In the sky, two figures flew out from the muscular men's bodies and quickly entered her mouth.
"No — — -"
"I beg you!"
Before the two figures could say anything else, Buttercup had already closed her mouth.
She lightly chewed a few times and scowled.
"This taste …"
She licked the corner of her mouth with her pink tongue.
"How is it? What taste is this? Does it taste good? "
Another voice asked from the darkness.
"It's the souls of wraiths, their souls always give off the smell of expired food, it's not good at all" Buttercup commented.
The man said: "How about you give me that Card, I want to cleanse the Tower once more"
"No problem, sir Tower Master" Buttercup threw the Card to him.
The man caught the Card and was about to retreat into the darkness.
Then he remembered something and stopped, saying: "Buttercup, I've found the 5th way to turn you back into a human"
Buttercup didn't respond and asked: "Or do I have to lose all of my demon powers?"
"Yes" the Tower Master replied.
"Then forget it, in this Apocalyptic Era, as long as I can obtain the power to protect myself, I don't mind becoming a demon" Buttercup replied.
"I remember that you used to be a Scroll User, after losing your demon powers, you can turn back into a pure human Scroll User and retain the power you once had" the Tower Master said.
Buttercup shook her head and sincerely replied: "Thank you for taking me in and taking care of me, but my heart can no longer return, I don't want to be a weak human girl anymore"
The Tower Master sighed and slowly disappeared.
His voice echoed throughout the silent world:
"If the man you met when you first left home to study was Dragon King of Atrocity Jail … I'm guessing a lot of things would have been different"
Buttercup stood in the darkness and fell into a long period of silence.
