Gu Qing Shan's heart tightened.
Because he remembered something.
The Living Being Sacrificial Dance seemed to be related to the Dusty World.
If this Sacrificial Dance ultimately came from the Dusty World, then wouldn't he become a member of the Pantheon?
This matter must be clarified!
After thinking for a second, he asked decisively: "Did the Pantheon's Pantheon create the Dusty World?"
"No, don't ask too much about the matters of the Dusty World. That will create a connection between you and the Dusty World. It's hard to say whether it will be a blessing or a curse. Even I won't be able to save you," the giant corpse advised.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
After the Seven Swords Offering to the Infinite Worlds, he had asked the hoarse female voice about the Rope of Cloud Atlas and the Dusty World.
What did she say at that time?
"This String of Luck is the key to passing through the clouds and reaching the Dusty World. Remember, you can only bring one person with you, the original owner of this string."
— — Since they had been in contact for a long time, how could he not inquire about it?
Now that I think about it, after completing the World Offering Ceremony and defeating the Soul Shrieker, the hoarse female voice told me to practice the Dance as much as possible in order to rank up the Sacrificial Dance as soon as possible, but I've been too busy to practice the Dance.
Time was of the essence right now. It would be too troublesome to say it out loud, so —
"Can you help me see what's going on with this dance?"
After saying that, Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath.
He puffed out his chest, raised his head, raised his buttocks, closed his legs, and gently twisted his waist.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI:
"Let's start with the fourth set of dance practice."
"Three."
"Two."
"One …"
"Let's go —"
Time was silent for a second.
Dang dang dang dang dang —
A series of ringing sounds erupted.
Then the drums came in!
Dong dong clang — Dong dong clang —
Toot ~ Toot ~
Toot ~ Toot ~
Extremely awkward — Extremely awkward —
All kinds of voices began to boil, and it was very lively!
A notification appeared on the War God UI:
"Watch out! Watch out! "
"Because you haven't practiced dancing for a long time, the rhythm has been messed up."
"You have to practice hard for a period of time to regain your original dancing foundation."
Foundation of Dance …
If I wasn't forced by circumstances, I wouldn't need this dance!
Gu Qing Shan could not help but sigh in her heart.
But now, even the background music was very messy. It was really a little problematic.
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to stop dancing.
In an instant, all sound disappeared.
Two new lines of description appeared on the War God UI:
"You have stopped this training session."
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief and looked at the giant corpse.
The giant corpse: "…"
Gu Qing Shan was rendered speechless.
The giant corpse was speechless.
Gu Qing Shan coughed and said, "Not only that, I also have this."
He raised his hand.
A thin purple rope was tied to his wrist.
The giant corpse sighed and spoke in a low voice: "Mystical artifact, Rope of Cloud Atlas, which means, you are already the one who awakened the Dusty World"
"This rope seems to be used to guide the way" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Indeed, since you've obtained it, you should follow it. Because you can no longer turn back, and I can't tell you too much either, that would only cause unnecessary trouble" the giant corpse said.
His voice carried an unprecedented level of caution.
Gu Qing Shan said: "Then the Pantheon — –"
"Don't worry, the item in your hand has nothing to do with the Pantheon" the giant corpse resolutely told her.
"But what exactly is going on with my Dance?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The giant corpse went silent for a few moments, then said: "There's no need to ask about that, I can only hurry up and tell you about another urgent matter"
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"The Age of Apocalypse is coming, the dead Gods of the Pantheon wouldn't dare to appear in the world of the living at this time" the giant corpse said.
"But they did" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Because of that, there must be something within this Apocalypse that attracted them, forcing them to take the risk to descend into this world" the giant corpse said.
At this point, the light of the entire world gradually dimmed.
Strands of deep blue light appeared at the top of the bronze pillar and slowly converged.
The destructive lightning illuminated the world.
"Don't ask about the Occult"
"Go, Gu Qing Shan, the most important thing for you right now is to find out the true reason behind the Myriad Gods' descent"
"Once you do that, you might be able to get closer to the truth, allowing this blurred piece of history to become clear and stable"
As soon as he said that.
All of a sudden, a powerful pulling force came from Gu Qing Shan's body, pulling him away from this obscure world.
Boom!
The lightning descended.
The giant corpse was completely submerged within the intense lightning, unable to utter a single word.
…
Among the trees.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly fell from the void of space, landing in front of everyone.
Atley said in admiration: "How impressive, when will I be able to do that?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at everyone, only to see that everyone was looking at her, even Shroud was paying attention to her.
"We finally have someone who can enter the World of Laws again" Scarlet looked at Gu Qing Shan with glowing eyes.
"Did you see the Law Behemoths?" Shroud asked.
"I didn't, I only went for a bit, but I'll probably have to go again" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Then let's try again" Reneedol urged her.
Gu Qing Shan was surprised: "Why are you in even more of a hurry than I am?"
Reneedol chuckled.
This Rhode seems to be quite perceptive …
She then said: "I've been running around quite a bit and heard some unfavorable news regarding our World Valley"
"What news?" Atley asked.
"They want to surround and kill anyone who manages to escape from the World Valley" Reneedol replied.
"Why!?" Epta couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, but we need to become stronger" Reneedol replied.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at her.
Indeed, in just half a day, the Overlord of Radiance would be surrounded and killed by the Law Behemoths, Shroud would also lose all of his abilities.
Only the Overlord of Death wouldn't participate in this matter.
Which means, the only person I can rely on right now is Rhode!
I really need to quickly form a covenant with the Overlord of Death, otherwise, if I run into people from other organizations, I won't be able to use Red Wraith's swordsmanship to kill them.
That would directly expose me.
Gu Qing Shan moved her body a bit, then tried to connect to the World of Laws again.
No one dared to disturb her, so they cautiously stood around her.
A few moments later, Gu Qing Shan seemed to have sensed a familiar presence and abruptly looked up.
A cluster of black flames descended from above, enveloping his body.
Shroud muttered: "The phenomenon is black flames? It seems the one who noticed Rhode was most likely one of the three Overlords of Darkness, Destruction, or Death "
Atley's gaze was fixated on the black flames on Gu Qing Shan's body, unwilling to look away.
Reneedol replied: "I'm guessing it's the Overlord of Death, a very unique Overlord"
"Indeed, mortals who bring death to this world are favored by this Overlord the most" Shroud added.
"That can't be, why would Rhode normally form a connection with the Overlord of Death?" Scarlet worriedly asked.
Reneedol glanced at her.
— — just a bit longer, you're going to form a covenant with the Overlord of Death yourself, and you're still worried about him?
But I can't say that out loud.
The black flames enveloped Rhode and vanished from everyone's sight.
The World of Laws.
Not too long after Gu Qing Shan stood in the void of space, a humanoid figure wearing a black cloak silently appeared in front of her.
— — again.
Gu Qing Shan silently sighed in her mind, then bowed: "Venerable Overlord of Death, I have come here to request to form a covenant with you"
The humanoid figure stood there without saying a word, then raised his hand and lightly pointed at the void of space.
The burning flames manifested into a line of text:
[Death cannot speak, otherwise all things will wither]
Gu Qing Shan nodded in understanding.
The text then turned back into flames and manifested into lines of text:
[Rhode, countless living beings have died at your hands, you are the one with the highest affinity with Death in this world]
[Now, are you willing to form a covenant with me?]
Gu Qing Shan answered right away: "I am"
The text paused for a bit, then turned into a new line of text:
"Aren't you going to ask what kind of covenant it is?"
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and agreed. I can't act like I know everything, that wouldn't be good.
He explained: "I feel like I'm quite compatible with you, so why don't we save some time and form a covenant right away?"
The burning text manifested into a covenant that flew in front of Gu Qing Shan.
The flames manifested into an unfurled covenant with two simple lines of text written on it:
[You provide for me, and I grant you power]
[— — Overlord of Death]
Gu Qing Shan sincerely replied in the same manner as she did before: "Venerable Overlord, I don't know how to provide for you"
The burning black flames manifested into a line of text:
"The deaths that you bring are my sustenance."
Gu Qing Shan hesitantly replied: "Normally, I don't kill — — –"
At this point, he instinctively stopped.
Recalling everything that had happened, Gu Qing Shan sighed and said: "I don't kill normal people"
"That's fine, as long as you kill your enemies"
Gu Qing Shan nodded and placed her hand on the black flame covenant.
Hoh — —
The covenant turned into a cluster of flames that entered Gu Qing Shan's body.
The covenant with the Overlord had been formed!
The line of black text appeared again:
[You did well, Rhode, you may return now]
"Wait a minute!"
Gu Qing Shan called out.
He took out something from his chest and respectfully said:
"To celebrate our agreement, I present this bottle of precious treasure to you."
