Gu Qing Shan flew out of the Isle and headed downstream.
All of a sudden, he saw someone slowly flying in front of him.
— – Boss.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly followed and called out: "Why did you come out here?"
Boss stood on top of the Book of Prophesized Destinies, breathing heavily as he replied: "Reneedol left with a female elf, I was worried, so I came to take a look"
Gu Qing Shan looked at him, then at the Book of Prophesized Destinies under his feet and understood.
— — after writing the Fable of Destinies, Boss was completely exhausted.
He didn't even have the strength to fly right now, so he had to rely on the Book of Prophesized Destinies to carry him.
Gu Qing Shan paused, then slowly realized.
Boss had transmigrated back to this era and lost his immortal body.
I used my full strength just now, even though Scarlet provided me with a bit of vitality, I was still wounded all over, my strength was completely drained, and I only had 10% to 20% of my peak strength.
— — if we were at our peak, we could still try again.
But in our current state, what else can we do besides die?
Gu Qing Shan followed the river and looked afar, only to see that the murky water was shrouded in an indescribable layer of fog or something else.
It was moving.
— — -it seems to be sentient and sentient, currently carefully observing me and Boss.
Gu Qing Shan tried to send her inner sight over, but it was immediately cut off.
Unexpectedly, the layer of fog gradually dispersed, revealing the river and rock wall in front of them.
Wisps of mist circled around the two of them and began to surround them from all directions.
Gu Qing Shan's heart turned cold as a chill crept up his spine.
— — it made way, then carefully surrounded me and Boss.
Why did it cut off my inner sight so cleanly, then immediately made way to surround me and Boss?
Cutting off my inner sight was its first reaction.
This proved that it was hostile to begin with.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at Boss.
Boss was so tired that he didn't notice what was happening in the dark.
The Boss couldn't even fly and she couldn't fight either. What would happen next?
Gu Qing Shan glanced back at him.
Some black mist slowly floated towards the Island of Protection.
"Gu Qing Shan, help me fly. I can't fly steadily while standing on this Book of Destiny." Boss said while panting.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at him.
For some reason, he suddenly thought of that fable.
Boss expended all his energy to create this fable.
Gu Qing Shan was alarmed.
Without batting an eyelid, he said to Boss, "I have something important to tell you."
"Hmm? What? "Boss asked.
Gu Qing Shan grabbed Boss's hand and leaned against him.
A white mist enveloped the two of them and quickly dissipated.
World Technique, Fog Realm Descent!
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had returned to the secret room of the Island of Protection.
Boss was a bit surprised and hurriedly asked: "Ah, why did you bring me back?"
Gu Qing Shan looked straight at Boss's eyes and resolutely answered: "Because you can't even fly, and I can't fight anymore, chasing after you would be suicide"
"I understand what you're saying, but history is no longer stable, even the future is rapidly changing, I'm afraid that something might happen to Reneedol" Boss sighed and said.
"In our current state, what can we do even if we go?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
He released his inner sight to scan the Island. Only to see that the black mist was sticking close to the ground, silently making its way onto the Island.
Boss shook his head: "I need to know if she's safe before I — — -"
Gu Qing Shan cut him off and seriously told him: "Boss, if we go and something happens, Reneedol will have to save us, do you think that's worth it?"
Boss was speechless, so he sighed and sat down on a chair.
Knowing that he had calmed down, Gu Qing Shan took out a cushion, sat on it, and began to meditate.
The two of them silently rested.
From start to finish, Gu Qing Shan didn't mention anything about what happened just now.
After sitting for a few moments, he suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Oh no"
"What's the matter?" Boss anxiously asked.
"I forgot about Scarlet, she's still waiting for me in the air — — and Little Dusk, she needs to come in as well, I have something to tell her" Gu Qing Shan said.
He stood up, quickly walked to the door of the secret room, opened it, and flew out.
A few moments later, both Little Dusk and Scarlet returned to the secret room.
"Shroud, why do you look so tired?" Scarlet asked in surprise.
"I used too much power to tell that story" Boss had no choice but to explain.
Gu Qing Shan closed the door of the secret room, took out a formation plate, arranged layers upon layers of formations, then returned and sat down.
"Rhode, what do you want to tell us?" Little Dusk asked.
Scarlet also looked at him.
Gu Qing Shan muses: "Little Dusk, why did you choose this place to shelter the living beings who escaped from the surface?"
Little Dusk replied: "I've investigated many places, this place seems to be the divine palace of the Protection Deity of the Age of Myriad Deities — — apparently, her defensive capabilities were the strongest among the Myriad Deities"
"Is it really the strongest?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
"Indeed, if even this place was damaged, the other places of the Pantheon would definitely not be able to withstand the calamity" Little Dusk replied.
Scarlet was surprised: "No wonder I couldn't break anything when I tried attacking it with various powers in the training field"
Little Dusk continued: "Not only that, this secret room is the masterpiece of the Protection Deity, almost nothing can destroy it"
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
That fable — — -
If it really was as Little Dusk said, our group would be in even more danger if we were to escape to another place.
Little Dusk added: "If there's anything stronger than this secret room's defenses, it would be the Myriad Deities' Sacred Gate. But that gate requires the power of various gems to fill it, and because of the Myriad Deities' Causality Law, it can only stay in a certain secret passage, so I chose this place"
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised and casually took out a heavy door.
Thud!
The door lightly hit the ground with a heavy sound.
"Is it this door?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Little Dusk opened her eyes wide and asked in surprise: "How did you take this door down?"
「 He said he wanted to take me to a faraway place 」 the door replied with a heavy voice.
Gu Qing Shan tapped the door: "Tell me, how exactly did you do it?"
「 If you see a place with a door, put me on it, I can directly replace it 」 the door replied.
"What's the effect?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 After the replacement, unless the corresponding Causality Law is fulfilled, no one will be able to peek into the door's seclusion, much less enter it 」 the door continued.
"What if someone doesn't enter through the door, but purposely destroys the walls or tunnels to enter?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
「 Don't worry, no matter where they want to break through, that place will be the same as where I am 」 the door proudly replied.
Gu Qing Shan picked up the door, walked to the door of the secret room, and pushed it open.
Boom!
With a resounding sound, the door embedded itself where the door of the secret room originally was.
The Sacred Gate spoke in satisfaction: 「 Ah — — this place is very sturdy, I like it here. By the way, do you have any gems? 」
"You ate them all last time" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 Without gems, how do I activate the Causality Law? 」 the door was troubled.
Gu Qing Shan looked around, then asked Little Dusk: "I remember Shroud giving you some gems, can I borrow them?"
Little Dusk was a bit surprised, then replied: "Of course"
She took out the entire chest of gems that Boss gave her.
Gu Qing Shan picked up the chest, walked to the door, and quickly asked: "How many gems do you need?"
「 The more gems there are, the stronger the Causality Law's defensive power 」 the door replied.
Gu Qing Shan poured the entire chest of gems into the door.
Boss looked at Gu Qing Shan and felt that he was acting a bit strange, but couldn't pinpoint exactly what was strange about him.
— — -he seemed very natural, very calm, but also a bit anxious.
It wasn't just Boss, Little Dusk and Scarlet also noticed it.
"What's the matter?" Boss directly asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Right now, both you and I don't have the strength to fight, so we need a safe environment"
The three of them couldn't refute this.
After all, Shroud and Rhode were indeed the strongest here, so it made perfect sense for them to pay attention to their own safety when they were powerless to fight.
However …
You're the Death God, how could you be so cautious …
At this point, the Sacred Gate scoffed in satisfaction and said: 「 Alright, set up the Causality Law, what kind of people do you want to let in? 」
"Without my permission, no one is allowed to enter or leave" Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 The Causality Law has been established! 」 the door loudly declared.
Countless voices of praise and prayers resounded from the void of space around the Sacred Gate.
These voices slowly faded away.
Gu Qing Shan seemed to sigh in relief and told Little Dusk: "Thank you, I'll return the gems to you later"
Little Dusk shook her head: "No need to return them to me — — I feel like this secret room is already very safe, why would you need to use the Sacred Gate as well?"
Boss and Scarlet both looked at her.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and explained: "After all, Shroud had told us the Fable of Destiny earlier, so I think we need a particularly sturdy place"
Everyone recalled the fable from before and understood.
Scarlet chuckled and patted Gu Qing Shan's shoulder: "Rhode, I never thought the Death God would be such a coward"
Boss also said: "The secret room of the Protection Deity, together with the most powerful Sacred Gate of the Myriad Deities, this is indeed safe enough"
"No" Gu Qing Shan replied, "This gate requires gems, the more gems there are, the stronger the Causality Law of the gate would be — — do any of you still have gems?"
The three of them exchanged glances.
Even sturdier?
Isn't he being a bit paranoid?
Little Dusk cleared her throat and said: "— — Rhode, this is actually already safe enough"
Gu Qing Shan shook her head: "No, I know very well how terrifying things like Destiny can be"
Before he could finish speaking, a strange sound suddenly rang out.
The four of them turned to the Sacred Gate at the same time.
A series of sharp noises resounded from outside, as if someone was scratching the door with their nails.
The noises were ear-piercing and concentrated, as if sharp weapons were rapidly slashing at the door.
Gradually, the noises became louder and more urgent, until it sounded like countless people were screaming at the same time.
After a few dozen breaths' worth of time, the door still didn't budge, and the noises outside slowly disappeared.
Everyone's expressions changed.
"Who's outside?" Little Dusk frowned and asked.
There was no movement outside.
Little Dusk walked outside and said: "Who exactly is pranking us, I'm going to take a look"
As soon as she took two steps, Gu Qing Shan pulled her back.
Little Dusk turned to Gu Qing Shan with a questioning expression.
Gu Qing Shan didn't say anything and simply shook her head.
Boss then loudly asked: "Who's outside? Is it an elf or a giant? Reneedol? "
Still no movement.
For some reason, everyone felt an indescribable sense of eeriness.
Gu Qing Shan still didn't say anything and simply stared at the door.
His mind wasn't calm.
After a while, a faint voice resounded from outside: "Open the door, quickly open the door"
