Within the darkness of the space vortex.
A warped space of several dozen meters in diameter abruptly appeared.
Crack — —
The shattered space split apart to reveal a person.
Gu Qing Shan.
"Safe" he whispered.
A cluster of black flames emerged from his body and manifested as Black Dog.
"We're in the space vortex? What time is it right now? "Shroud asked.
"I'm not sure, but it should be at a certain point in the future" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The two of them both looked towards the darkness of the void.
Everything within the void was hazy, the only thing that could be seen was the constant blowing of the wind. Occasionally, the remains of certain things would drift away with the wind.
Wait a minute — —
"Look" Gu Qing Shan whispered.
"Hm, I can see it" Shroud replied.
Far away, countless corpses were drifting about in the darkness.
Other than the two of them, the other directions were filled with the corpses of various living beings.
A series of black flames abruptly erupted from Gu Qing Shan's body, completely uncontrollable.
Shroud glanced at him and said:
"Too many living beings have died, your Law of Death has grown unprecedentedly strong, having surpassed your Cultivation-type powers"
Gu Qing Shan's expression turned serious and spoke: "The Law of Death is telling me that there are very few living beings within the space vortex — — we need to quickly find someone to ask about the situation"
Shroud took out the Book of Prophesized Destiny and flipped through it, finally stopping at a certain page.
On that page was a drawing of an island.
There was a faint layer of light around the island, seemingly some sort of barrier that prevented the floating corpses from approaching the island.
"It's around 100 miles East of us — — how strange, this place seems to be very close to the Doomsday Cemetery" Shroud pondered.
"Come, let's go take a look" Gu Qing Shan said.
The two of them quickly flew forward and quickly reached the outskirts of the island.
Gu Qing Shan placed her hand on the layer of light and triggered a ripple.
The ripple of light spread in all directions.
Something seemed to have been startled on the island.
A line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[Barrier: Concealment]
"This barrier was formed by gathering nearly a hundred kinds of concealment powers."
No wonder this island is still safe and sound!
Gu Qing Shan thought to herself.
"They're coming," Boss said.
Gu Qing Shan looked over, only to see a few dozen Professionists flying out from the island, approaching her with killing intent.
"Who are you?" A burly man shouted.
Gu Qing Shan spread her hands, indicating that she had no intention to attack, and said loudly: "I accidentally wandered into this place, please do me a favor and let me in to rest."
Everyone looked at him carefully.
Well …
A young man of the Human Race.
"Old Five, check it," the big man shouted.
A short, wretched-looking man came out from behind him and examined Gu Qing Shan from head to toe.
"Third Brother, he's a cultivator, so he shouldn't be a spy from the Apocalypse."
The burly man's expression relaxed slightly as he muttered, "Then …"
"Wait!"
A female voice called out.
A mercenary-looking woman walked out from behind the group and scolded: "What kind of situation is this? You dare to let someone in so casually?"
The burly man forced himself to answer: "Old Five has already checked, he shouldn't be an Apocalypse"
The female mercenary coldly laughed: "Besides us, all the other worlds in this area have already been destroyed by the Apocalypse, and you still dare to hope for a fluke?"
"Then, what exactly is suspicious about this person?" the burly man asked with a serious expression.
The female mercenary walked in front of the group, pointed at Gu Qing Shan, and said: "Envoy of the Apocalypse, you might be able to fool others, but you can't fool my technique!"
Gu Qing Shan smiled: "You can use whatever method you want to use, I'm truly a human cultivator, I guarantee it"
The woman mocked: "Don't try to lie"
"I'm not lying" Gu Qing Shan sincerely replied.
The female mercenary coldly asked: "Then, at the moment of the destruction of countless worlds, why are you still a virgin?"
Gu Qing Shan froze.
"That's right, everything in this world is on the verge of destruction, how could there still be a virgin in such an era!" the burly man slapped his forehead.
"That's right, I didn't think I would've overlooked such a detail" the perverted shorty sighed.
Everyone else suddenly realized.
Gu Qing Shan's voice became cold: "You're being unreasonable, what does that have to do with whether or not I'm an Apocalypse spy!"
Shroud stood next to him and spoke with the same hatred: "These people don't understand love at all — — Gu Qing Shan, let's go!"
"Let's go!"
The two of them turned around.
The void of space suddenly moved.
A young girl appeared in front of the two of them.
She wore a black silk miniskirt, her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she had a pair of cat ears on her head.
Meow.
Meow actually appeared here!
"Gu Qing Shan, Boss, Lola sensed your presence just now, so I came to welcome you" she smiled and said.
Gu Qing Shan and Boss were first surprised, then overjoyed.
"Meow! It's great to see you again! "Shroud said.
"What time is it right now? Hurry and tell me, I have something I need to confirm "Gu Qing Shan said.
Meow shook her head: "I don't know either"
"You don't know?" Gu Qing Shan and Boss spoke at the same time.
"That's right" Meow replied as a matter of fact, "We had only just left the Temporal Oasis state and returned to the River of Time, so Lola immediately noticed that the two of you had returned"
Gu Qing Shan trembled.
That's right.
I used the three coins to activate the power of [Distortion] to return to the past.
At the time when I was about to enter the Eternal Abyss to fight against the Wraith realm, the War God UI had given me quite a few notifications, one of which was this:
[Because you came from the Temporal Oasis: The world of the Spire, the future you need to arrive at is the future that the isolated world of the Spire will arrive at]
— — which means, I arrived at a certain point in the future with the world of the Spire at the same time!
Gu Qing Shan was completely stunned as thoughts flashed through her mind.
At this point, the void of space itself started to flicker.
Anna appeared from the void of space and tossed the warp scroll in her hand to one side.
She rushed forward and hugged Gu Qing Shan tightly.
"Waah, Qing Shan, I've been waiting for you on the Temporal Oasis for so long" she buried herself in his embrace and told him everything.
Gu Qing Shan closed her eyes and hugged her tightly.
There was silence all around.
Inside the screen of light, someone whispered to the female mercenary: "Look, she's very pure"
The female mercenary looked at Gu Qing Shan with a bit of disbelief.
The screen of light continued to flicker.
Familiar people appeared all around her.
Bali also came.
Then, Ye Ru Xi, Jang Young-ho, and Ye Fei Li all appeared.
Ye Ru Xi crossed her arms: "Hey, it's not too late to make out later, we're currently in a very bad situation"
Gu Qing Shan didn't seem to notice at all.
Anna didn't look up.
Shroud knew what was going on, so he cleared his throat and tried to resolve the situation: "What exactly is the situation?"
Ye Ru Xi scowled: "When Meow came to find you, all of us had spread out to investigate our surroundings. It seems that the entire space vortex is on the verge of destruction"
"It's the Apocalypse?" Shroud asked.
The void of space shifted as Little Xi appeared.
She glanced at Gu Qing Shan and said: "Yes, it's the Apocalypse, an endless Apocalypse. The Reality Gate has been completely opened, the Apocalypse is still wreaking havoc, there aren't many worlds left in the space vortex"
"The situation is that bad?" Boss doubtfully asked.
Bali replied with a heavy tone: "That is indeed the case. I've made some calculations just now, even if we have a lot of time to improve our strength through the [Order], there are simply too many Apocalypses, we'll soon be outnumbered"
Gu Qing Shan suddenly asked: "What about the Samsara? Is there any news from the Samsara worlds? "
Little Xi replied: "I've discovered many destroyed Samsara worlds — — - just like the other worlds, they've all fallen into a state of complete destruction, not a single living being survived"
Gu Qing Shan's expression changed.
Strange.
Could it be that the Samsara Clash for Supremacy still hasn't begun at this point in time?
That can't be right.
Everything is about to be destroyed, if it doesn't begin now, it'll be too late.
What exactly is going on …
Boss also appeared confused and said: "Strange … why did they send us to this point in time? This is a very bad time, it's clearly very difficult to salvage the situation "
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a while, then sighed deeply.
He patted Anna's shoulder and said: "It's nice to see everyone again, but Boss and I have to leave"
Everyone turned to him.
"Leave? Where are you going? "Anna grabbed his hand and asked.
Gu Qing Shan then told them everything that they had gone through.
Everyone was stunned.
Anna, on the other hand, was very happy and leaned into Gu Qing Shan's chest: "So we really were fated to meet in the past, Qing Shan"
"Then, Su Cher sending you to this point in time was actually a hint?" Little Xi asked.
"Yes" Gu Qing Shan nodded.
"What is it?" Little Xi asked.
"First of all, this era no longer has a way to fight against the Apocalypse; secondly, at a certain point in the past, there was still a girl called Xiao Wei who was waiting for Shroud and I to save; thirdly, only I can do this right now"
Gu Qing Shan grabbed the void of space, then opened his palm in front of everyone.
Three coins.
One was engraved with the Angel of Condemnation, one was engraved with the Demon King of [Order], and the last one was engraved with the Great Bramble Tree.
The void of space warped as Lola also teleported over.
She looked at the three coins and muttered: "These are the Explorer of Infinite Secrets, the Distorter of History, the Key of the Past, the Traveler's Fragment, the Space-Time Coin"
Shroud's expression changed several times, then said: "I understand!"
His gaze met with Gu Qing Shan's.
Both of their gazes contained a bit of indescribable meaning.
"If …" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
Shroud didn't say anything and simply nodded.
Gu Qing Shan chuckled: "Xue Er … I finally understand what you're trying to do …"
Everyone else looked at them in confusion.
"What … are you talking about?" Bali asked.
Gu Qing Shan explained: "It's like this — — - the three coins can activate the power of [Distorter], allowing me to become the only person allowed to distort history"
Shroud continued: "As the 'Distorter', he can influence the course of history, but the things he does cannot be related to his past in any way, nor can he touch anyone or anything related to him in the past, otherwise, he will be erased by the Laws of Time and Fate"
Everyone nodded and waited for the rest of her explanation.
Gu Qing Shan continued: "When I activate [Distorter], the Space-Time Coin will lose its ability to travel back in time, only regaining its ability after I've lived from that era all the way to the moment of departure from the River of Time — — - this moment is considered to be the moment when the world of the Spire returns to the future"
Anna asked: "Which means, the moment when we leave the 'Temporal Oasis' state would be the moment when the power of [Distorter] ends?"
Gu Qing Shan nodded and took a deep breath.
He looked down at the three coins in his hand.
Strange fluctuations of power could be felt from the coins.
[Distorter] had ended.
Gu Qing Shan muttered: "— — in other words, when I return to this moment in the future, the power of the three coins will be restored"
Lola suddenly realized something, then stuttered as she looked at Boss, then at Gu Qing Shan and muttered: "Then you, you two — — -"
Boss clenched his fist and spoke in a deep voice: "Gu Qing Shan has retrieved the six Sealing Tokens, as long as there's enough time, I can use them to awaken my own power — — I need to save Xiao Wei"
Gu Qing Shan nodded: "Boss is currently a soul vessel, he's the only one who can travel with me"
"We need to return to the past again, investigate the problem with the Samsara, find a way to fight against the Unknown Apocalypse, and save someone!"
