The ocean.
The wind and rain were howling.
Within the darkness, countless runes appeared in the void of space like a waterfall.
After a while, the chaotic and disordered data finally stopped its frenzied refresh.
All the data became slow, orderly, and neat.
A line of text appeared in the void of space:
[Destination arrived]
[Location: The ocean]
[World Latitude/Longitude: 121.43333, 34.50000]
[Northeast wind, wind force: 5-6]
[Wave height: 2.5 meters]
"Visibility: 3 km."
[Torrential rain]
[Beginning to descend]
[Attention, as your evolution has only just been completed, we do not have enough time to replenish your energy] [This Super Space-Time Warp borrowed the power of the Apocalypse, danger level red]
[You can only stay here for 20 seconds]
[Ready — — -]
The air was filled with densely packed light patterns that were as fine as ants.
All the runes gathered together to form a human figure — — -
It was a human woman wearing a skin-tight combat outfit.
She stood in the void of space with her eyes closed, silently listening to the sound of rain falling from the ocean.
All of a sudden, a melodious female voice resounded in her ears:
[The time has come]
[In 15 seconds, the Apocalypse Assassin will appear]
[You can begin your preparations now]
The woman opened her eyes and drew a Card from her snow-white hair.
[Unleash]
The woman muttered.
Bam!
The Card turned into a black handgun.
Holding the handgun, the woman's eyes appeared nostalgic.
[It's been a long time since I fought by your side … I really miss you]
She muttered and looked at the void of space.
Corresponding lines of notification appeared there:
"Specific coordinates matched."
[Attack countdown:]
[Five]
[Four]
[Three]
[Two]
[One]
[The Apocalypse Assassin has appeared!]
Bang — — -
The woman pulled the trigger. The bullet she fired disappeared in an instant.
A line of glowing text appeared in front of her eyes:
[The enemy's assassination has been interrupted!]
[Mission complete!]
[The Apocalypse has noticed that we are borrowing its power to travel through space — — -]
[If you stay here for more than 10 seconds, it will definitely observe you]
"Return immediately!"
The woman glanced through it and took out a card. She placed it in the void and let it float there.
"Qingshan … you must live …"
As soon as she finished speaking, countless fine light patterns enveloped her body, emitting a dazzling radiance.
The radiance disappeared in a flash.
The woman disappeared from the sea.
It was as if she had never existed.
On the ocean, the light and shadow were obscure.
The wind howled, the rain poured down, and the waves roared.
However, the card remained floating in the air, motionless.
It was waiting for something.
…
Across mountains and oceans, to the other side of the world.
The orange cat dispelled the [Ghostly Shadow of Night] Thaumaturgy and discussed something with Black Dog.
"Right now, it shouldn't have been too long since the giant eyeball woke up" the orange cat replied.
"What were we doing then?" Black Dog asked.
"In the distant past, at the point of the Spire's destruction, we will fight against the Soul Shrieker in an Apotheotic Combat. Once we win, the world of the Spire will become a Temporal Oasis, drifting along the River of Time towards the future" the orange cat explained.
"That's a bit far away" Black Dog sighed emotionally.
"That's right" the orange cat replied.
They both stared at the single-horned python below.
"What now? Do we still save it? "Black Dog asked.
"If the entire world is destroyed and it's the only one left here, it would be quite lonely, how about we take it with us?" the orange cat suggested.
"Alright, I'll take it as a pet" Black Dog decided.
He waved his paw, flipped through the Book of Prophesized Destiny, and quickly found a covenant.
"Go, you should consider yourself lucky to be able to sign a covenant with me" Black Dog said.
The covenant flew down and landed on the single-horned python's head.
Bam!
The entire Horned Python was gone.
Black Dog waved his paw. The covenant flew back and returned to the Book of Prophesized Destiny.
All of a sudden — —
The orange cat's fur stood on end.
Black Dog also barked and used the Book of Prophesized Destiny to block in front of himself.
But there was no time.
A humanoid monster with eyes all over its body appeared in front of them, giving off cold rays of light that restrained both the orange cat and Black Dog.
Both of them couldn't move anymore.
An autumn-water clear blue sword manifested, hurriedly trying to cut off the rays of light — — -
But there was no time!
The humanoid monster smirked and quickly chanted: 「 Burning Apocalypse — — - 」
Bam!
Something flew in from afar and opened a hole in between its eyebrows.
Blood sprayed in the wind.
The humanoid monster's assassination technique disappeared.
The orange cat abruptly disappeared.
A gigantic sword phantom several dozen meters wide gave off an explosive sound, pierced through the humanoid monster, and carried it away.
Clang clang clang clang clang!
The sound of countless swords clashing resounded from within the gigantic sword phantom.
The humanoid monster didn't get very far before it was decapitated by the sword phantoms.
Clang!
The head fell from the sky, hitting the ground with a resounding sound.
In the blink of an eye, everything had happened and ended.
Gu Qing Shan stood in the air with the Earth sword in hand, breathing heavily.
"It's not particularly powerful, but it's very unique" he commented.
"That's right" Black Hound's eyes showed a deep look and said: "Its greatest strength lies in its ability to hide and appear, even now, I still don't know how it managed to hide from both our senses at the same time"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the void of space.
Lines of glowing text had already appeared:
[Apocalypse Assassin: Myriad Eyes has arrived from Space-Time]
[It had gathered 7,681 concealment techniques specifically used to travel through Space-Time]
[Myriad Eyes is currently unleashing a unique Apocalypse: Burning Poison]
[All of Myriad Eyes' actions have been interrupted]
[You've killed it]
[You've obtained Soul Points: 10,000]
[Attention: This is an assassination attempt that traveled through Space-Time, you must be on high alert]
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
In a normal battle, he had never been afraid of anyone.
But who could've known that an Apocalypse monster would travel through Space-Time and specifically make preparations to assassinate him?
And it just had to happen at the exact moment they returned.
Both he and Boss had checked this entire world, there were no living beings.
Combined with the fact that the giant eyeball drew their attention, neither of them expected this to happen.
Black Dog flew down, stood in front of the head, and carefully observed it.
"You purposely left a head for it" Black Dog commented.
"That's right, because it was struck first, its attack was interrupted. I want to know what happened"
Gu Qing Shan crouched down and carefully observed the head full of eyes.
Hm?
He suddenly showed an attentive expression.
"This is … a bullet hole?"
With a single thought from Gu Qing Shan, sword phantoms manifested from the void of space, condensed into a thread, and directly cut the monster's head open.
Countless metal fragments were left in between the monster's skull, a shocking sight to behold.
— — -but even that wasn't enough to kill the monster.
"A technological attack … could there be someone else besides us in this world?" Boss asked.
He opened the Book of Prophesized Destinies. Gu Qing Shan also released her inner sight.
The two of them scanned through the entire world once again.
"The ocean"
"Yes, the ocean"
The two of them exchanged glances, then disappeared from the desert.
At the very next moment.
They reappeared above the ocean.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the hovering Card in front of her, feeling a sense of familiarity.
"What is it, do you know it?" Boss asked.
"Yes, this is the Blood Sea deck, from …"
Gu Qing Shan reached her hand out and lightly took the Card in her hand.
As soon as the Card touched his hand, it was activated and a female voice resounded:
"Qing Shan, Impartial Goddess and I had to secretly borrow the power of the Apocalypse to temporarily return to this era"
"I can't say anything else, because the Apocalypse might notice"
"But you must remember, the Apocalypse monsters are currently thinking of a way to return to your current era"
"They want to assassinate you and steal the six Sealing Tokens from you"
As soon as she finished, the Card shattered into pieces with a 'pop', scattering all over the place.
Gu Qing Shan stood still without moving.
"Who is that?" Boss asked with interest.
"Su Cher. She should be staying together with Impartial Goddess right now, undergoing a unique evolution"
While explaining, Gu Qing Shan silently pondered.
Impartial Goddess …
From the information obtained from the Age of Immemorial, she was an entity from the Samsara Human Realm.
With her protecting Su Cher, there shouldn't be any issues — — - they could even secretly borrow the power of the Apocalypse.
Then …
Gu Qing Shan flipped her hand, revealing the six Sealing Tokens in her hand.
