While walking towards the grand hall, Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to carefully observe his surroundings.
Only to see that everyone was acting as if they were used to this and didn't pay too much attention to him.
Everyone was looking at the entrance of the grand hall.
Several dozen wraiths with powerful presences were carrying various boxes, trunks, and spatial storage tools into the grand hall.
Gu Qing Shan squinted his eyes.
He could sense powerful energy fluctuations coming from some of the boxes.
Seems like they're some particularly powerful treasures.
What are they preparing?
Reneedol seems to be preparing something, most likely not for me to tell a story.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan became cautious.
Following his change in attitude, the faint music in his ears grew louder.
Hm?
What's going on now? Did I accidentally trigger the [Dance of Death Duel]?
A line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[You've made preparations to gather intelligence]
[You're fully focused on your current mission, ready to engage at any moment]
[The Dance of Death Duel has been inspired and is currently forming]
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
"War God UI, what exactly is going on with this Dance, do you know?" he silently asked.
[I don't] the War God UI replied.
His Soul Points were silently deducted.
Seeing the change in his Soul Points, Gu Qing Shan complained: "You're dismissing me with just three words? You should at least be able to sense this music, right? "
This time, the War God UI's voice sounded a bit more serious: [It is not a perfunctory answer. In truth, this stage of the Sacrificial Dance is the beginning of the power of Occultism. It is currently observing your personal style, using it to manifest an irreplaceable 'Dance of Death' that belongs solely to you. Before this Dance has fully manifested, the UI cannot predict its direction]
His Soul Points were deducted twice in a row.
Gu Qing Shan's eyebrows twitched a bit and asked: "Why was it deducted twice?"
[You asked two questions] the War God UI replied.
His Soul Points were deducted again.
Seeing how little Soul Points he had left, Gu Qing Shan calmed down.
He didn't ask any more questions and continued forward.
Just as he was thinking, he heard a woman's disdainful snort.
Lin brushed past him and hurried toward the palace.
That's right, she was a twelve-winged angel, the strongest person in the Angel Nation. Naturally, she was qualified to enter the hall.
The three Wraith Lords also stood by Reneedol's side.
Gu Qing Shan retracted her gaze and looked at the wraiths holding the treasures in their hands again.
… Perhaps they had something important to discuss.
He quickened his pace and walked towards the main hall.
…
In the main hall.
Lin arrived first.
The three Wraith Lords were all present, as were the Angels of power.
Reneedol sat on the throne with a solemn expression.
Wraith Lord Karmic Fire ordered: "Open all the treasures, we need to see what can be of use at this critical moment"
Lin shook her head: "Hundred Grudges, I know that you've painstakingly collected a lot of treasures over the years, but how could these treasures possibly deal with that eyeball?"
Hundred Grudges was Wraith Lord Karmic Fire's real name. After a bit of thought, he replied: "In truth, within the Samsara, each reincarnation world has its own Delimitation Artifact with immense power. No matter how much I think about it, it should be able to deal with that eyeball"
Lin scoffed and asked: "Have you ever found a Delimitation Artifact?"
Hundred Grudges sighed and replied: "We have, unfortunately …"
"Unfortunately, it's only a pile of fragments" Wraith Lord Giant Frame followed up.
Everyone went silent.
Reneedol sighed and said: "Everyone, life and death is only a matter of moments, who can think of a way to deal with that eyeball?"
No one answered.
The main hall was silent, the atmosphere slowly fell into a heavy despair.
Suddenly, someone reported: "Wraith Lord Cang has arrived"
A second later, Cang Wu Zhang's figure flashed and appeared in the main hall.
Everyone looked at him.
He smiled and bowed to everyone:
"Greetings, Empress, greetings, Wraith Lords, Angels"
As soon as he said so, the sound of music resounded from behind him.
Chacha!
Chacha!
Chacha!
The rhythmic music faded away after a single performance.
The main hall fell into silence again.
Reneedol: "…"
The three Wraith Lords: "…"
Lin: "…"
Gu Qing Shan froze in place, her mind in chaos.
I only came in to greet them, prepared to obediently stand on one side without saying a single word.
Why did a piece of background music suddenly pop up?
It's fine if you just gave me a Dance, but since they're all here, I can just kill them.
Why did you give me a piece of background music?
He turned to everyone, only to see everyone staring at him with indescribable expressions on their faces.
Wraith Lord Giant Frame shouted: "Vile spawn, what did you just do?"
He was Cang Wu Zhang's father.
In the past, when Cang Wu Zhang was killed by Gu Qing Shan, he was the one who begged Bai Grudge to use a Heavenly Craft to revive Cang Wu Zhang.
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan understood that he was giving him a chance to explain himself, so he clasped his fist and apologized: "My apologies, my apologies, I've recently been studying the music of the Mystical realm, after this war is over, I will dedicate it to everyone"
He sneaked a glance at the War God UI.
Lines of glowing text had already appeared on the UI:
[The Dance of Death based on your personal style is being activated]
[First step: Background music]
[Personal style is being determined]
[You've obtained the music for the Dance of Death, specific content is being arranged]
[Attention, you cannot control this music]
[It will sense your personal charisma and gradually form a music that suits you]
Gu Qing Shan remained expressionless and silently asked: "My personal style is going to be 'chacha chacha'?"
[Still in the process of arranging, this ball has undergone many tests to determine your personal music]
[Furthermore, according to the UI's full investigation, the relevant direction has been discovered. In order to obtain information on that direction, you will need to pay 10,000 Soul Points]
"Pay" Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth.
10,000 Soul Points were deducted.
The War God UI solemnly replied: [In truth, from a personal perspective, with your extraordinary culinary skills, the venerable Devil King of Huang Quan, the new inheritor of Eerie Dance Steps, a virtuous performing artist, the founder of the Era of [Order], the inheritor of the Thousand Dragons Ancestor, a pure and untainted person among the flowers, as well as your experience in battle, your achievements in turning the tides of war, your Karma of saving countless worlds, your personal music definitely wouldn't be this laughable 'chacha chacha']
"And so?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The War God UI replied: [Other than 'chacha chacha', there might also be 'extreme awkwardness']
Gu Qing Shan lowered his head in disappointment.
What can I say now?
Under everyone's watchful eyes, he could only force himself to remain calm, looked up again, and apologetically clasped his fist towards everyone.
Reneedol was feeling troubled, but she didn't bother to ask and only said: "It's still too early to think about the celebratory music after our victory, we need to quickly think of a way to deal with that eyeball"
"Yes" Gu Qing Shan nodded.
Lin stood on one side, sneaking a glance at him, but her mind was in turmoil.
Reneedol and the wraiths had never seen this style before, so it was normal that they couldn't understand it.
However, when Lin returned from the Age of Old, she had already been cut to pieces by this type of music.
She had also seen Gu Qing Shan's Dance during the Bramble Bird's Count conferment ceremony.
This style of music had left a deep impression on her.
Tracing back to its origin, this Sacrificial Dance was actually a treasure that the strongest Bygone Era combatant obtained by chance.
As a member of the Bygone Era human race, Lin naturally understood this very well!
She recalled the music just now and finally found that familiar feeling.
There's no mistake.
There's no mistake.
This dance was definitely of the same lineage as the one passed down by the old man!
But Cang Wu Zhang …
That can't be right, the old man only had a single inheritor in Gu Qing Shan, how could a pretty boy like Cang Wu Zhang have obtained this Dance?
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Lin's mind.
Recalling just now outside the grand hall, Cang Wu Zhang dared to tease me in front of everyone.
Could it be …
Lin clenched her fist, wanting nothing more than to ask him right now.
But now isn't the time!
She looked left and right.
Only to see that everyone was either looking at the treasures or shaking their heads at Cang Wu Zhang with looks of disdain.
Lin clenched her teeth, but couldn't help but silently send her voice to Cang Wu Zhang:
"Hm?"
This' hm 'contained a lot of meaning, so those who understood would naturally understand. If the real Cang Wu Zhang was Cang Wu Zhang, he would only be confused by this' hm '.
As soon as this' hm 'was transmitted, Gu Qing Shan couldn't do anything about it.
If Lin didn't know, it wouldn't be a big deal to deceive her a bit. After all, the situation was dire and a powerful foe was right in front of us, so there was nothing we could do.
But if I still dare to lie to Lin after she asked.
Then …
The outcome …
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to bite the bullet and replied without changing her expression:
"Hm"
Lin silently listened to this reply, then slowly narrowed her eyes.
