The Immortal Pagoda turned into dust and was blown away by the wind.
Gu Qing Shan stood still, staring at the Samsara Wicked Mask in his hand, a bit lost in thought.
— — this was the final mask of the Wraith realm, the Wicked Mask that manifested during the final moments of its life in the Wraith realm's abyss.
This Wicked Mask had never appeared in the history of the Wraith realm before.
In the void of space, lines of glowing text were still floating in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes:
[You've activated the Samsara Wicked Mask to absorb the Immortal Pagoda's Thaumaturgy: Immortal Sight Summon]
[With the power of the Samsara Wicked Mask, 'Immortal Sight Summon' will be upgraded to the next level]
[As this Wicked Mask originated from the Wraith realm, the upgraded ability will automatically transform into the Wraith realm's Thaumaturgy, Guise Hex]
['Guise Hex: Ghostly Body of the Past' is about to be born]
Below these lines of glowing text, a line of bright red text appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes:
[This Guise Hex was manifested from the countless wraiths of the past, its power is unknown, do not use it carelessly]
It was because of this line of text that Gu Qing Shan took off the Samsara Wicked Mask.
There were too many things he needed to do right now, so he decided to explore this Wicked Mask's ability later.
Gu Qing Shan put the mask away.
He looked at the cultivators who were still kneeling on the ground and calmly said: "Whatever Bai Hua sect can offer, we can also take back. From now on, Shen Wu world will no longer have a Heavenly Craft inheritance"
"As for your lives — — -"
The cultivators' hearts were in their throats. But Gu Qing Shan's voice stopped.
He thought for a bit.
Now that there's a {Yama King} realm Tribulation, Bai Hua sect's crisis has passed, so there's no meaning in killing more people.
— — – Gu Qing Shan has never done anything that has no meaning.
"Live on, if you truly have the heart to repent and want to take another step forward in your cultivation, I'm willing to give you another chance"
Gu Qing Shan continued: "From where you are now, kowtow with every step you take, repent with every step, until you reach the blue rock at the foot of my Bai Hua sect's mountain, I will let bygones be bygones and allow you to face the {Yama King} realm Tribulation"
The cultivators all lowered their heads without saying a word.
Tens of thousands of miles away, do I have to keep kowtowing?
Which one of the people present wasn't a grand cultivator with status? Who would be able to endure this?
An elder asked, "Fellow Daoist Gu, may I ask, what are the rules of the Yama Heavenly Tribulation? How? "
This was a question that the entire cultivation world was concerned about.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "It's simple, come to my Bai Hua sect as a sect servant for 10 days. When you leave, make a vow to heaven and earth that if Bai Hua sect is in trouble, you must come to help"
Everyone was rendered speechless, and even those Heaven Immortals were shocked speechless.
— – Gu Qing Shan had made the Heaven's Tribulation a vow to heaven and earth, every cultivator facing their Tribulation must stand on Bai Hua sect's side.
From now on, every cultivator who managed to pass the {Yama King} realm in the countless worlds of cultivation would unknowingly become Bai Hua sect's helpers.
Who would dare to covet such a sect?
"Disperse."
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan no longer looked at the group of cultivators.
He told the Heaven Immortals:
"Alright, I'll be fine here for now, all of you can return to the Divine Mountain — — before you leave, help me ask the Divine Mountain if they can give me a way to contact it"
A Great Emperor took out a grey stone from his chest pocket and tossed it to her: "This is what the Divine Mountain left for you, you can use this stone to contact the Divine Mountain of Sumeru at any time"
Gu Qing Shan received the stone and clasped his fist: "Everyone, I won't be sending you off, I'll find you at the Divine Mountain for a drink next time"
All the Heaven Immortals bid farewell to him with a smile before flying up into the sky and vanishing into the hazy clouds.
Seeing that everything was settled, Gu Qing Shan leapt up and headed towards Bai Hua sect.
The only people left here were the Great Elders and sect masters of the big sects.
These cultivators slowly stood up from the ground, exchanged glances, sighed, then took to the sky and headed back to their sects.
Only the two old men remained there.
They appeared conflicted, then knelt down again after a while.
The two of them headed towards Bai Hua sect, kowtowing with each step as they slowly made their way forward.
This was naturally noticed by the flying Gu Qing Shan.
He nodded, sped up, and headed towards Bai Hua sect.
— — Shifu's matter is really making me anxious.
What exactly happened to her?
Xiao Lou and Xiu Xiu were the last people to see Shifu, so they must know something.
Gu Qing Shan went into a cloud of white mist and disappeared.
A second later.
He appeared in Bai Hua sect.
"Third brother, you're amazing!"
Xiu Xiu jumped up and cheered.
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit relieved.
He was about to ask, but he swallowed it back down.
He picked up Xiu Xiu and spoke with a prideful tone: "It's fine, they're just a bunch of rabble"
Qin Xiaolou excitedly asked on the side: "Junior brother, does that mean those who face their Tribulation from now on have to stay at our sect for a while?"
"That's right, you'll be in charge of assessing them from now on, don't forget to make them swear to heaven and earth that they'll protect Bai Hua sect no matter what" Gu Qing Shan told him.
"Ahahaha, let's see who else dares to mess with our Bai Hua sect now" Qin Xiaolou happily laughed.
Qing Rou and Wan Er also calmed down.
"How impressive, I didn't think you'd be the one to decide the Tribulation now" Wan Er praised.
Qing Rou smiled and nodded.
Gu Qing Shan looked at her fellow brothers and sisters and suddenly had a thought.
— — -I have to ask about Shifu, but I can't let them worry as well.
Even if they're worried, they won't be able to help and will only be more troublesome, which isn't good for cultivation. Especially since Xiu Xiu is still young, she's the most easily influenced by the outside world.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit before answering: "Truthfully, you don't need to worry about Shifu, I just went through the Tribulation with her not too long ago. She's the strongest cultivator of the current cultivation world, no one dares to mess with her — — I'm guessing that she found some kind of treasure from the Heaven realm and left in a hurry"
Xiu Xiu asked: "Senior brother, compared to Shifu right now, who's stronger?"
Gu Qing Shan giggled: "Shifu is a hundred times stronger than me, she can knock me down with a single hand, you can just imagine how strong she is right now"
"Really?" Xiu Xiu asked.
"Really, I ran into a problem during my Tribulation, it was thanks to Shifu's help that I was able to pass" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Gu Qing Shan was already unbelievably strong, even the legendary immortals of Mount Sumeru had to listen to his orders.
And Shifu was a hundred times stronger than he was.
Who could possibly go against Shifu?
Hearing him say that, everyone silently thought about it and sighed in relief.
Gu Qing Shan then put down Xiu Xiu and rolled up her sleeves: "Alright, it's been a long time since we've gathered together, today Xiao Lou and I will make dinner for everyone, alright?"
Xiu Xiu, Wan Er and Qing Rou all cheered.
Qin Xiaolou also smiled: "Sure, I've recently learned a few new dishes, I'll let junior sisters have a taste"
Gu Qing Shan patted his shoulder: "I don't have any ingredients with me, you can go to the back of the mountain to prepare them first, I'll come find you later — — Wan Er and Qing Rou, you two go clean up the main hall, then go to the spirit spring to get some water for tea. Also, set up the table and utensils, Xiu Xiu, stay here and chat with me"
"Got it!" Qin Xiaolou flew towards the back of the mountain.
Wan Er and Qing Rou also didn't object and left.
Xiu Xiu nervously looked at Gu Qing Shan and asked: "Third brother, do you have something you want to tell me?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the sky, smiled mysteriously and said: "Xiu Xiu, do you know why that macaque called me the Orange Sovereign?"
Xiu Xiu shook her head, still a bit nervous, but also a bit curious.
Gu Qing Shan turned into a big orange cat.
Xiu Xiu froze.
A few moments later, she picked up the orange cat.
"Wah! Third brother, how can you be so cute! "
She stroked the orange cat's fur.
"Be gentle! Be gentle! This is only my transformation, not a real cat "Gu Qing Shan hurriedly sent her voice.
Xiu Xiu pinched the orange cat's tail, scaring him.
"And you say it's not a real cat!?"
All of the worries in Soo Soo's heart disappeared and she smiled cheerfully.
"Right, Xiu Xiu, senior brother has been to many worlds and brought back a few gifts for you"
While sending her voice, Gu Qing Shan took out a few flowers and plants.
— — -normally, Bai Hua sect's flowers and plants were taken care of by Xiu Xiu.
"Thank you, third brother, I really like these flowers" Xiu Xiu happily said.
She carefully received the flowers and plants and put them into a spirit plant bag.
"I'll leave these flowers to you, make sure you do your best" Gu Qing Shan told her.
"Don't worry, senior brother, I'll plant them tomorrow" Xiu Xiu declared.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, did Shifu bring you any gifts when she returned?"
Since Xiu Xiu was still very happy, she didn't think too much about it and replied: "Shifu didn't bring any gifts when she returned, but she gave me two gifts when she left"
Gu Qing Shan's heart jumped, but her tone carried a bit of curiosity as she asked: "What did Shifu give you before she left?"
Xiu Xiu carried the orange cat with one hand while touching her Inventory Bag with the other to take out two gems.
One of them gave off a bright red glow.
The other was giving off a faint blue glow.
"This is the Stone of Origin Birth, it can strengthen all Fire-type spells by 30%, a very rare item in this world"
"And this is the Jade of Extreme Ice of the Nether Sea. Whenever you wear it, it will constantly nourish your soul vessel!"
Xiu Xiu explained as if she was showing off a treasure.
Gu Qing Shan carefully checked with her inner sight and found that these were indeed two extremely precious gems.
But that was it.
There were no clues at all.
Gu Qing Shan was a bit disappointed and sighed: "Shifu really does love you a lot"
Xiu Xiu's eyes crinkled as she smiled: "That's right, when Shifu left, she left each of us a gift, except for me. At the time, I asked Shifu why she gave me two gifts, but not one for you"
"What did Shifu say?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Shifu said that you're now very powerful, sometimes even able to help her. You don't need any small gifts, as long as you remember to work together with your fellow brothers and sisters, you'll be able to know everything and overcome everything" Xiu Xiu told her.
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan's heart trembled, the blood in his body felt like it was about to freeze.
Shifu is a meticulous and fair person, she wouldn't neglect any of her disciples.
But she didn't leave anything for me, only two things for Xiu Xiu.
What difficulties does she have that she can't tell me?
Was she trying to tell him something?
Xiu Xiu seemed to have thought of something. She smiled and said, "Senior Martial Brother, I'll give you a gem. Pick and choose, which one do you want?"
Gu Qing Shan jumped out of her arms and turned back into her human form.
"Are you really willing to give me a piece?" he asked with a smile.
"Yes! Take your pick! "Xiu Xiu raised the two gemstones in front of him.
"Let me take a closer look."
He took the two gems from Xiu Xiu and opened them in his hand.
— — Shifu said that I'm very powerful now, and can even help her sometimes.
It was very likely that she needed help.
After all, he was the only Star River Saint in the entire Bai Hua Sect.
Even if Shifu didn't know his current cultivation, he had only just passed the {Mahesvara King} realm, and his strength far surpassed the entire Shen Wu world.
Following this train of thought —
She said … she knew everything.
Omniscient …
What will I know?
Gu Qing Shan carefully recalled Xiu Xiu's words just now.
Right, Shifu said that I don't need any gifts, and that I need to work together with my fellow brothers and sisters.
… Which word is that?
It should be 'work together' …
Gu Qing Shan reached out two fingers, picked up the red and blue gems, and put them together.
The light of the two gems clashed together.
The red and blue light intertwined and fused into a dark purple light.
"Purple … when red and blue fuse, it becomes purple"
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
For some reason, a memory suddenly surfaced in his mind.
At the time — –
I was talking to Shroud.
"I've found her, she's currently massacring the city"
"Can you recognize what kind of Apocalypse it is?"
"A dark purple light … capable of absorbing the most outstanding traits of all living beings, causing itself to undergo a destructive evolution, completely reducing all living beings to dust — –"
"This is the power of the Spirit-stealing Apocalypse"
