The four of them didn't stay put, instead choosing a direction and began their long journey.
The sky remained dark.
Occasionally, starlight would appear, but it would quickly fade back into the darkness.
As time passed, the sun never appeared again.
The wilderness was filled with darkness, coldness, and loneliness.
There were no signs of life.
All the insects and animals in the wilderness had died in the Apocalypse.
— — from the Deities of the Pantheon, the Law Behemoths, down to a fish and an ant; [Siming] didn't spare a single creature.
A strange feeling enveloped everyone.
Everyone slowly realized just how terrifying this Apocalypse was.
At this rate, the entire natural world would quickly collapse without any means of resistance.
Species would go extinct.
Everything would be irreparable.
Six hours later.
Gu Qing Shan, Shroud, Reneedol, and Scarlet found a place with no wind and started a campfire.
— — -the continuous journey had made them a bit tired.
According to the normal time, it should be nighttime now, so they decided to rest for the night.
"How far are we from the nearest human settlement?" Shroud asked.
"Around 3730 miles, the Law Behemoth's spatial sealing barrier is still functioning normally, so you won't be able to fly" Reneedol replied.
"I wonder what the situation is like there, if anyone is still working for the Law Behemoths" Shroud worriedly said.
"Indeed, anything can happen in the Apocalypse, we need to ensure that we have enough stamina to deal with any situation" Scarlet replied.
"Rhode, do we still have anything to eat tonight?" Shroud asked.
"There are no fish in the river, no beasts on the shore, and no wild fruits nearby — — - I'm guessing that we won't be able to find anything edible before we reach the human settlement" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He took out the rest of the liquor, took a look, and gave each of them a bottle.
"This liquor isn't particularly strong, it should be able to replenish our energy and water, let's rest after we're done"
The four of them opened the bottles at the same time.
Scarlet held the bottle and muttered blankly: "This is the liquor that Epta left behind"
The campfire illuminated the group.
No one said anything.
Epta was dead, Atley was dead, the Grand Elder was dead.
"There's no need to feel sad, we don't know how much longer we'll be able to live anyway" Shroud said.
"Are you discouraged?" Reneedol looked at him.
"No" Shroud smirked, then casually replied: "Perhaps our destination is the same as Epta's, so there's no need to be sad. Right now, we should take Epta's portion with us, continue to live on, and see what fate has in store"
Gu Qing Shan raised the bottle and said: "If we can survive until the very end — — -"
Shroud also raised his bottle and said: "We're going to get rid of this Apocalypse"
Clang!
The two bottles clinked together.
They craned their necks and gulped it down.
Reneedol narrowed her eyes and looked at the two of them.
Scarlet couldn't keep calm and hurriedly asked: "From the looks of it, you've already thought of a way to fight against the Apocalypse?"
"No."
Gu Qing Shan and Shroud spoke at the same time.
Scarlet was speechless.
"It's not good to be too tense. It's good to let your body and mind relax." Reneedol nodded slightly.
Scarlet also raised the bottle and took a sip.
This liquor was brewed from fruits, so it was very light to begin with, almost the same as fruit juice, which could be considered as replenishing some energy for the body.
10 minutes later, everyone finished their bottles.
"Let's rest" Gu Qing Shan said.
"You guys rest, I'll keep watch" Reneedol said.
"I'll do it, you rest" Shroud said.
"No need, I'm using a spatial technique that can ensure that I can sense any commotion within a radius of several dozen miles, while also allowing me to rest" Reneedol replied.
She casually waved her hand.
Invisible waves spread out and dispersed into the wilderness.
"That's not bad at all" Gu Qing Shan praised.
Everyone began to rest.
The continuous journey was truly exhausting, so Scarlet fell asleep in just a few moments.
Then Shroud.
Then Gu Qing Shan.
A few moments later, Reneedol stood up and looked at the three young people.
"They're all asleep …"
She said in a low voice and walked out of the camp, quickly disappearing.
A few moments later.
An ancient sword appeared from behind Gu Qing Shan.
The Earth sword asked: 「 He actually fell asleep? 」
Another elegant sword appeared from the void of space and spoke: 「 That can't be right, he's always been a cautious person, hit him 」
This was Luo Bingli's voice.
「 Me? Hit him? No, no, no, that's not appropriate 」 the Earth sword replied.
Another sword that gave off a cold gleam appeared and happily circled around Gu Qing Shan.
The Earth sword said: 「 Chao Yin, get some water and pour it on his head 」
The sword stopped and lightly waved in front of Gu Qing Shan's face.
A large cluster of sparkling water abruptly appeared and poured onto Gu Qing Shan's head.
Gu Qing Shan didn't react at all and was still asleep.
Shroud and Scarlet were also sleeping soundly.
"Seems like he's not asleep"
Luo Bingli pondered.
The Earth sword called out: 「 Shannu, stab him 」
An autumn-water clear blue sword appeared from thin air and lightly stopped on Gu Qing Shan's shoulder.
"Don't keep stabbing him, gongzi will get injured every time, I've already learned how to control my strength" Shannu said.
While she said that, the sword lightly cut a small wound on Gu Qing Shan's shoulder.
[Divine Mountain Law Breaker]!
Gu Qing Shan abruptly jumped up.
He wiped the water off his face, glanced at the four swords in front of him, then at Shroud and Scarlet who were still asleep and understood.
"Thank you, Shannu"
"It's fine, gongzi, how do you feel?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the void of space.
A line of glowing text was hovering there:
[You've been struck by a Soul Soothing technique. This technique doesn't contain any damage, it will only cause the user to fall asleep and recover their stamina]
Gu Qing Shan shook his head.
Reneedol has countless tricks up her sleeves, so why did she secretly use a Soul Soothing technique?
"Did you see where Reneedol went?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 No, she directly disappeared 」 the Earth sword replied.
"This Reneedol seems to have both spatial and mental techniques, so if she wanted to leave you, you wouldn't be able to find her" Luo Bingli analyzed.
"Hm, you're right — — but the situation has changed" Gu Qing Shan said.
"The situation has changed?" Luo Bingli doubtfully asked.
Gu Qing Shan didn't answer and simply raised his left hand.
"Where's my sister?"
He asked.
In a split second, a black thread emerged from his wrist and shot into the wilderness, disappearing into the distance.
"Let's go, let's see what she's up to" Gu Qing Shan said.
He used both [Orange Sovereign Transformation] and [Ghostly Shadow of Night] Thaumaturgies at once to turn into an orange cat.
"Meow — —"
The orange cat lightly called out, then quickly followed the direction of the black thread into the wilderness.
Behind the orange cat, the four swords disappeared at the same time.
Under the shroud of night, nothing could be seen.
The orange cat cautiously maintained [Ghostly Shadow of Night], making sure that nothing could detect his existence.
After a few minutes, Reneedol was still nowhere to be seen at the end of the wilderness.
The orange cat was a bit hesitant.
I can't waste any more time!
With a single thought, it disappeared from where it was.
[Shadow Shift]!
[Shadow Shift]!
[Shadow Shift]!
— — -this was a Divine Skill that couldn't be affected by any technique!
The orange cat flashed again and again, finally arriving at the edge of the wilderness.
He saw Reneedol.
In front of Reneedol, among the 7-8 corpses, three of them were slowly standing up.
The orange cat slowly walked up to Reneedol and silently crouched down.
"Where are the Wind Deity and Water Deity?" one of the corpses asked.
"They died during the Apocalypse, so the Laws I granted them returned to me, so I immediately called for you to reincarnate" Reneedol replied.
"So that's why, has that event begun?" another corpse asked.
— — -he couldn't be called a corpse anymore, because the ashen color of defeat on his face was slowly disappearing.
This person had come back to life.
"There's still no movement, but I'm guessing that it will happen tonight, so I immediately called for you" Reneedol said.
"You did the right thing — — - we risked the risk of being ended by the Apocalypse to return to the Realm of Life for this event. If the Wind Deity and the others died, then they died, this event cannot be allowed to go wrong" the third person solemnly said.
Everyone nodded.
"How many minutes left? The Foresight Deity? "Reneedol asked.
Another person replied: "In three minutes, something will break through the crack of the Reality Gate — — - soon"
For a while, including Reneedol, no one said anything else.
The orange cat narrowed his eyes, sharply noticing the same emotion on everyone's faces.
— — fear.
These guys from the Pantheon are afraid.
What are they afraid of?
If they're afraid, why did they brave the Apocalypse and return to the Realm of Life?
The orange cat noticed something strange.
He no longer crouched down and silently retreated, putting a lot of distance between himself and these people.
