Boom — — -
Intense power fluctuations abruptly manifested and began to destroy everything.
The collapsed tunnels, doors, stairs, and even stairs were all reduced to dust by this power.
Everything was destroyed.
Gu Qing Shan's group of four was running for their lives.
Behind them, the entire road had already turned into an endless series of collapses.
The billowing dust was like a giant snake that was chasing after them with increasing speed, wanting to devour them in one fell swoop.
Fortunately, the spatial lock had already disappeared, allowing Gu Qing Shan's group to run even faster.
"Don't worry, the collapse won't catch up to us" Gu Qing Shan loudly said.
He lightly patted Scarlet's shoulder.
Scarlet's expression was pale, but she gritted her teeth and nodded, finally calming down a bit.
Shroud was at the very front of the group and suddenly shouted: "There's no path ahead, it's a vertical cliff!"
"Then let's just fly down!" Reneedol said.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Gu Qing Shan urged them.
An extremely bad feeling was manifesting in his chest, causing him to feel suffocated and nauseous.
Even my spirit sense is reacting so strongly, no wonder Scarlet also sensed it and was afraid.
The situation is very bad.
However.
How did things develop to this point?
Gu Qing Shan silently asked in his mind.
At the very next moment, the four of them leapt up, flew off the cliff, and started falling down.
Gu Qing Shan looked down.
Only to see that this was a vertical cliff, dark, deep, and bottomless.
The four of them quickly fell.
All of a sudden, a deafening noise resounded from the cliff.
This was an indescribable noise.
As if everything in this world that could make sound was roaring at the same time.
"This power … oh no …"
Gu Qing Shan felt his consciousness becoming blurry.
He barely managed to open his eyes to look at the other three, only to see that Scarlet was still falling, but her eyes were closed and she had fainted.
Reneedol grabbed Shroud's hand and also fainted.
Shroud was still trying his best to hold on.
Gu Qing Shan tried his best to maintain his consciousness and called out: "Shannu, catch us"
After saying so, he fainted.
Almost at the same time, Shroud also fell unconscious.
An autumn water-like long sword flew out from Gu Qing Shan's back, circled around them, and flew down together with them.
"Don't come out, the aftermath of that power is still spreading, it's very strong!" Shannu sent her voice to the other three swords in Gu Qing Shan's Thought Sea.
「 So powerful, what exactly is it? 」 the Earth sword asked.
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword circled around the four of them and replied: 「 It should be a shockwave caused by the simultaneous eruption of various powers 」
"All kinds? How many? "Luo Bingli asked.
"Countless, countless" Shannu replied.
「 Alright, we don't have [Invincible] and [Law Breaker], it wouldn't be fun if we got knocked away, so let's not go 」 the Earth sword replied with a resounding voice.
Luo Bingli also said, "When they're about to land, you have to catch them. By the way, should we take the chance to kill Reneedol?"
"We won't" Shannu answered right away.
"Why not?" Luo Bingli asked.
"Because gongzi told me to 'catch us', not 'kill Reneedol'"
"… You're so inflexible"
"I'm not inflexible, I'm supposed to listen to gongzi" Shannu replied.
…
It was hazy and blurry.
A hoarse voice resounded in their ears:
"Heh, I've been wondering, you hitmen only kill a few people, why do you get so much money!?"
Gu Qing Shan turned around to see that the one who spoke was Liao Xing.
Ye Fei Li and Jang Young-ho were also sitting together.
There was a sumptuous meal on the table, as well as 7-8 bottles of liquor.
— — this was a certain night when the Frozen Hell first descended on Gu Qing Shan's homeworld.
Everyone was having dinner, chatting and chatting.
Jang Young-ho was eating a piece of steak and casually said: "We kill people to fulfill their wishes, it's considered a high-class custom-made service"
Liao Xing was unconvinced: "I can just make a warp bomb and kill a bunch of people in one go"
"That's terrorism, it's affecting public order" Jang Young-ho scoffed.
"Alright, enough talk, let's drink" Gu Qing Shan persuaded him.
Everyone clinked their glasses and gulped it all down.
Liao Xing didn't dwell on this and went back to eating his cream cake.
Ye Fei Li suddenly spoke up: "Hey, Ying Hao, isn't killing people killing people? How can you make it sound so elegant? "
Jang Young-ho's attitude towards Ye Fei Li was naturally different.
He put down his knife and fork, looked at Ye Fei Li and asked: "I'm asking you, how do you kill people?"
Ye Fei Li very naturally replied: "I fly over, kill them, then leave"
Jang Young-ho shook his head: "What if you fly over and can't kill them?"
Ye Fei Li was stunned.
Jang Young-ho continued: "There was such a target, he was several times stronger than you, but you still managed to kill him in the end, can you guess why?"
Ye Fei Li thought for a bit and said: "I ambushed him?"
"That's not exactly the correct answer — –"
Jang Young-ho pointed at him, then pointed at Gu Qing Shan and said: "I had someone send you to learn how to survive in the wild, how to hunt, how to learn various skills, what do you think that was for?"
Ye Fei Li didn't say anything.
Jang Young-ho continued: "Gu Qing Shan said that he wanted to act as someone else, so I had Tong Tong take him to the Capital Film Academy to learn how to act, why do you think that was?"
Ye Fei Li put down the ice cream in his hand and looked at Gu Qing Shan for help.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and said: "Killing people is easy to say, but when facing an enemy stronger than you, you have to use your brain"
"Oh? Tell me about it "Jang Young-ho was interested.
Gu Qing Shan said: "To put it simply, you have to collect information, judge the situation of the scene, probe your enemy, understand his strengths and weaknesses, avoid his advantages, provoke his emotions, repeatedly confuse him, scare him, disturb him, until he reveals his intentions, find his weaknesses from his actions, then choose the right time, use the most appropriate strategy, and use the strongest force to crush him"
Jang Young-ho shrugged: "What you're doing is fighting, very much like a lion hunting, but my art of killing is more like a different kind of hunting"
"Like what?" Gu Qing Shan was also interested.
"Have you ever seen a spider hunting?"
"Yeah"
"We hide in the dark, carefully observe the target, using his weaknesses to weave a net, but the target doesn't know anything — — in fact, it's not that we want to kill him, but because of his personality, habits, and hobbies, in that specific environment, he will definitely die"
"What do you mean?" Ye Fei Li cut in.
Jang Young-ho shrugged, then continued: "A good swimmer will drown, a racer will die from running into a car, a lecherous man will die from a terminal illness, a hot-tempered man will die in a brawl, a greedy man who only cares about money can be killed at any time — — - they will all die from their own desires, and won't draw too much attention from anyone"
"So this is the net you weave?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Yes, killing is only the end result — — - but weaving the net in the shadows is the true difficulty of the art, it requires a lot of resources and effort" Jang Young-ho replied.
"Why do you say that?" Ye Fei Li asked.
Jang Young-ho explained: "Because your net must guarantee one thing: As soon as it is cast, the target will not be able to escape, only able to walk step by step towards death"
Imagining that scenario, Ye Fei Li couldn't help but shiver, then said: "If a person isn't greedy, not lecherous, not a bad person, and only likes to stay at home and play games like me, how would you kill them?"
Jang Young-ho glanced at him and replied: "I only kill scum, what are you worried about"
…
"He's about to wake up" Scarlet's voice came.
"Very well, I'll give him a bit of healing power" Shroud's voice also came.
A warm power enveloped his body, giving him a comfortable feeling.
Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.
Shroud, Reneedol, and Scarlet were all looking at him.
"What happened?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"It's nothing, everyone fainted, but you woke up the last" Reneedol replied.
Gu Qing Shan rubbed his forehead and said: "Ah, I just had a dream and recalled a few things from the past"
"What was it?" Shroud asked.
"It's nothing, just some small talk — — right, why didn't we fall to our deaths?" Gu Qing Shan asked while looking around.
"I looked around, there was a large slope up ahead. We probably slid all the way down, so we weren't hurt at all" Scarlet replied.
Gu Qing Shan followed the direction she was pointing. Sure enough, there was a slope that extended all the way into the darkness, its length unknown.
Ahead of them was a dusty tunnel.
Everything was silent.
For some reason, Gu Qing Shan suddenly recalled Jang Young-ho's words.
A web in the shadows.
A web …
Gu Qing Shan stood still and carefully recalled everything that happened.
— — -originally, they were heading to the Scavenger Station, but everyone there died, so they had no choice but to jump into the tunnel.
Following that, the spatial sealing technique created by the Law Behemoths disappeared.
Everything on the ground had died.
Our group had been running for their lives all the way here.
Although this all seemed natural, Gu Qing Shan now had a strange feeling.
This was her intuition.
It was as if there was an invisible hand pushing the development of the matter.
Gu Qing Shan didn't change her expression and told everyone: "Seems like we're safe for now"
Reneedol asked: "When we were running just now, you grabbed something from outside the door, what exactly was it?"
"I didn't have time to look" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He took out a rectangular stone box, placed it on the ground, and opened it.
"Wow" Scarlet exclaimed in surprise.
Inside the stone box lay a beautifully shaped metal spear, which emitted a sharp aura out of nowhere.
"What a great item!" Shroud exclaimed.
Gu Qing Shan held the spear in her hand and weighed it a bit.
A line of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI:
"The Asura General Spear."
[Characteristics: Multi-attack, powerful thrust, advanced sharpness]
— — -an item from the Asura realm.
Gu Qing Shan shook her head, then gave the spear to Shroud and said:
"You like to use long-handled weapons, take it"
"I can use it to research and improve Abaddon's power — — you gave me the spear, what about yourself?" Shroud asked as he held the spear.
"You gave me a candle — — whenever I run into an enemy I can't win against, I'll make a wish that I can't kill them, that way they'll die" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shroud chuckled: "How could the Causality Law be that simple? The candle can only work on minor matters, otherwise, wouldn't it be able to decide the fate of an entire world?"
Gu Qing Shan suddenly thought of something.
He yawned, then sat down in a corner and said:
"I'm too tired, let's rest up a bit and observe if there are any more cave-ins above before we act, what do you think?"
"Alright, I'll give everyone something to eat" Shroud said.
Everyone began to rest up.
While eating, Gu Qing Shan silently asked in his mind: "What is it? Adorable? "
Xiu, xiu xiu xiu, xiu xiu!
The jade pendant Adorable was urgently calling out in his Thought Sea.
Its voice carried a deep sense of fear.
