The orange cat laid on the ground with his round belly.
— — -he really ate too much.
He reached his paw out to touch his belly, then couldn't help but sigh.
As a culinary expert, I've always been very particular when it comes to eating, and I've always been careful about how much I eat.
But this time, it wasn't because I was overeating, but because I couldn't help but eat.
With that in mind, the orange cat turned to the War God UI.
[Remaining Soul Points: 20,000]
This line of glowing text was displayed at a corner of the UI, calming him down.
— — -finally, I have enough Soul Points.
The orange cat struggled to stand up from the ground, then used his paw to pull out a statue from his chest.
A colorful rooster.
And now, I can finally awaken it.
The orange cat pulled at the rooster's comb with his paw.
The rooster trembled, then slowly came back to life.
"Ah, youngster, have you ever thought of the reason why your Soul Points replenishment is so slow as a cat?" the rooster asked.
"Meow!" the orange cat hurriedly swung his paw.
The rooster begrudgingly replied: "What? You didn't want to know this information? How sly … "
The orange cat turned back into Gu Qing Shan and said: "The reason why I replenish my Soul Points slowly is because I haven't devoured anything particularly powerful — — so please tell me other information, preferably information related to my current situation"
Saying so, he stroked the rooster's feathers.
20,000 Soul Points were transferred.
The rooster instantly raised its head and let out a long cry.
It happily made a heart shape with its wings, clearly in an extremely good mood, then couldn't help but mutter: "Ohohoho — — - nice! I finally have Soul Points again! I was just worried about my shopping cart — — - "
Its voice abruptly stopped as it cautiously glanced at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan didn't care about what it was blabbering about and clasped her fist with a serious expression: "Brother rooster, I'm currently searching for the remains of the frozen corpses, please tell me something useful"
The rooster's expression changed, its attitude suddenly became formal and serious as it spoke:
"Gu Qing Shan, to activate my power, you must provide me with the corresponding amount of Soul Points, and you can only use it once per day"
"Let me explain — –"
"I've faintly sensed two important pieces of information, one of them is related to the movement of the Apocalypse, while the other is related to a certain person's life — — - a person that only you can save"
"Choose now. Which intelligence do you want to know? I'll start sensing the relevant situation right away."
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask, "Only one of them?"
"Yes" the rooster said.
"Please help me find out about that person's safety" Gu Qing Shan said.
The rooster was a bit surprised: "Brat, you didn't even blink when you were killing people, why are you saving them now?"
"It's a matter of life and death. If you don't do anything to save him, you will regret it." Gu Qing Shan said.
"But when you kill, you don't hold back at all. You could even say that you're numb to killing. How does this count?" The rooster asked.
"There are some people that you will regret if you don't kill." Gu Qing Shan shrugged helplessly.
「 If you want to save them, what about the Apocalypse? 」 the rooster asked again.
"I'll have to face the Apocalypse sooner or later, so I can wait for now" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Rooster gave him a long look.
He took out a piece of paper from his chest pocket and placed it on the ground, then gave a ballpoint pen to Gu Qing Shan and said:
「 Brat, you really are to my liking. Come, sign this IOU, I'll come up with a compromise and see if I can find out anything for you 」
Gu Qing Shan took a closer look, only to see what was written on the IOU:
[20,000 Soul Points is owed to the colorful rooster today, payment in installments as follows:]
[A total of 6 installments, one month each]
[10,000 Soul Points is required for each installment]
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say you owed 20,000 Soul Points? Why does it have to be 60,000 in total? "
The colorful rooster shouted: "Old Gu, this rooster is going to risk his life to help you this time, wouldn't it kill you to ask for a bit more?"
60,000 Soul Points to be paid in 6 months — — - this wasn't much at all.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly asked: "Is the situation that bad?"
The colorful rooster was surprised and met his gaze.
"Hmph, isn't this all because of what you did in Space-Time? One of you is the Lord of Radiance who rules over the River of Life, the other is the God of Death who rules over the River of Death, but the Lord of Radiance turned into a dog's head, while the God of Death hung a dog's head all over the void of space, looking for corpses — — do you really not know what kind of existence the River of Life and Death is?" the colorful rooster complained.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I know that it's a world belonging similar to the Samsara"
"Look!" The rooster suddenly shouted: "You clearly know that it's such an important world belonging, yet you still haven't gone to the River of Death to take control of all the undead, it's already too late — — -"
It abruptly stopped.
Gu Qing Shan silently listened and didn't say anything.
— — the colorful rooster had never mentioned the IOU method, nor did it actively go against the rules to provide me with multiple pieces of information in a single day.
But now, it appeared to be in a hurry, wanting to try and do just that.
It was the War God UI's information system, as long as it was activated, it would be able to sense something from the void of space.
— — in other words, it must have sensed something and was worried about something.
Just like …
The lady in charge of the Sacrificial Dance was urging me to quickly complete the Dance.
It was as if something urgent was approaching.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized something.
Up until now, I've neglected the importance of the River of Life and Death.
This was the origin of the world that was comparable to the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
— — and it isn't broken!
How powerful is it exactly?
Gu Qing Shan's heart sank, thinking back and forth about why I forgot such an important matter.
After carefully thinking about it, I found that I wasn't affected by any sort of technique. It wasn't that I truly forgot about this.
It was that I didn't have the time.
Returning from the Age of Immemorial, saving Fei Yue, entering the Wraith realm, meeting the Magic Dragon, slaying the Wraith Lord, fighting against Reneedol to the death, did I ever stop for a single second?
I didn't have the time to investigate the River of Life and Death!
Fortunately, Su Cher used an extremely ingenious method to help me recover the power of the three coins.
Gu Qing Shan sighed, then asked: "Rooster, what exactly did you notice?"
The rooster scoffed: "I haven't started investigating yet, but I feel — — no, I can't tell you what I feel, otherwise, it would also be classified as a piece of information and I'll fall into slumber right away"
Gu Qing Shan didn't ask any further.
He crouched down and signed his name on the IOU.
"Here" he gave the rooster the IOU.
"Hm, then I'll begin!"
The rooster squawked, stood up on one leg, stretched his neck up high, and nervously observed the void of space around him.
Gu Qing Shan didn't want to disturb him and could only silently wait.
The rooster observed his surroundings for a while before dispelling this state.
"Old Gu, I'll only say it once before I fall into slumber, listen carefully" the rooster spoke with a solemn tone.
"Alright, I'm listening" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The rooster took a deep breath, then spoke with an unprecedentedly solemn tone:
"The omens within the River of Death are becoming more and more obvious, the Apocalypse has noticed something and is silently activating its plan from countless years ago"
"The destruction that engulfs the entire space vortex is coming …"
"The beginning of everything is within the Doomsday Cemetery, head towards the North. The girl who sent you here is sincerely hoping that you can save that person — — - if that person survives, you will understand the origin of the secret"
The rooster tiredly nodded to Gu Qing Shan.
"I've finished explaining the information. In summary, it's very dangerous. Not only must you be careful, you must also speed up, otherwise that person will die"
Saying so, it quickly turned back into a statue and stopped moving.
Gu Qing Shan silently put the colorful rooster statue away.
He stood where he was, lost in thought for a long time.
— — North?
Who would be in the North?
The girl who sent me here is Su Cher.
There's no doubt about that.
Who does she want me to save?
Gu Qing Shan waved his hand in the void of space.
The isolation barrier instantly disappeared.
He quickly walked out and welcomed the mercenary leaders.
"Boss, do we move now?" Aquarius Heisou asked.
"Time waits for no man, we need to move now" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The mercenary leaders exchanged glances.
"Which direction?" Moon Song asked.
Gu Qing Shan paused for a few moments.
The remains of the Frozen Corpses should be in the Northwest direction.
And the person I need to save should be in the North.
The direction isn't too far off.
Since this is what Su Cher hopes for, then — — -
Save the person first.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan spoke: "We'll head North"
"Yes"
Everyone answered in unison.
