Liao Xiao Pao's punch was very heavy.
A gigantic war hammer made of pure steel appeared behind him, on which was the carving of an armored knight.
"Die!"
Liao Xiao Pao shouted.
Since the bulky man was restrained by Gu Qing Shan, he couldn't use his realm power and was struck in the head by Liao Xiao Pao.
Murky red and white brain matter exploded and instantly splattered everywhere, disappearing without a trace.
Only a headless split corpse was left there.
— — the corpse trembled a few times, then stopped moving.
After unleashing that punch, Liao Xiao Pao collapsed next to the corpse, breathing heavily:
"Hoh — – hoh — – thank you for your help, otherwise I would've been dead already"
"It's fine, you also helped me a lot" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He held his legs and pulled them back, then slowly got up from the ground.
— — -although he was a powerful sword cultivator, he's never practiced a split before.
Combined with how nervous he was just now and how he was constantly using his realm power, his legs were a bit numb.
Gu Qing Shan silently commented.
Lola walked up, trying not to laugh as she asked.
Gu Qing Shan silently sent her voice: "This Skill doesn't suit me"
"I think it's quite good" Lola smirked and showed her a picture.
In the picture, Gu Qing Shan and the bulky man were facing each other, doing a split.
— — -how embarrassing.
Gu Qing Shan's face went red.
[Song and Dance Manipulator] Spirit Skill, it's best not to use it if possible.
— — I'm a Hardcore sword cultivator, if I have to fight someone, I'll just have to do a split — — -
What's going on?
While they were talking, a streak of light flew up from the glowing city in the sky, slowly descended, and stopped in front of Liao Xiao Pao.
As the light faded, a black piece of paper was revealed.
The three of them looked at it, only to see a few lines of text written on the paper:
[Only one person left to fulfill the qualification requirement: 1]
[Number of participants remaining in the qualifying round: 1]
[The condition has been fulfilled]
"— — Although you've fulfilled my request, your compatibility contradicts mine, so you still cannot receive the protection of my power"
"The qualification battle has officially ended."
[Number of people who obtained souls: Zero]
Liao Xiao Pao looked at the paper and knelt on the ground.
"Dead … All … dead …" Liao Xiao Pao muttered.
The city in the sky emitted a misty light, coldly shining on the earth.
The ground was littered with corpses. It was silent.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
So many experts who had grasped the power of the world had died just like that.
Even at the last moment, Liao Xiao Pao fulfilled the evil spirit's request, but his nature was incompatible with the evil spirit.
When he first met Gu Qing Shan, he activated the Judgement of the Holy Sanctum and pointed out the evil. Just now, he used a heavy punch with the Holy Attribute.
His nature was definitely not compatible with evil spirits.
Therefore, the evil spirit was still unwilling to give its world energy to Liao Xiao Pao.
Or …
He had been toying with the participants from the very beginning.
It was an evil spirit after all.
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts wandered back and forth in her mind, then suddenly asked:
"Tie Nan, I can see that your attacks all carried the power of the world, which means you actually have a spirit in your body — — why did you have to find a new spirit in the Dusty World?"
Liao Xiao Pao shook his head: "That spirit of mine is incomplete, I've already developed its power to the limit, there's no way for me to take another step forward"
"Then the Dusty World — —"
"With the Apocalypse looming, there aren't many complete worlds that belong to the Dusty World anymore, but the Dusty World has a true world that belongs to the Dusty World! Only such a world could give birth to a powerful spirit! "
Lola pulled on Gu Qing Shan's sleeve and gave him a thumbs up.
— — -before, Gu Qing Shan had already guessed that the Dusty World had the strongest spirit.
Looking at the corpses around him, Liao Xiao Pao rubbed his eyes.
"All the worlds that could escape have fled to the Dusty World, this is the natural habitat for spirits, the place where the strongest spirits reside"
"That's why we came here in search of hope … but now …"
He sighed and stood up.
"This is for you" Liao Xiao Pao tossed something to her.
As Gu Qing Shan received it, she saw that it was a small alarm clock.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[Time-type item: Silver Tower Clock]
[With this clock, the amount of time you can stay in the current world system will be shortened]
[In just half a day, you will be able to leave this world system and arrive at the next world system that it is connected to]
While Gu Qing Shan was reading through these notifications, Liao Xiao Pao had already explained how to use the alarm clock in detail.
After explaining everything, it was time for them to part.
Liao Xiao Pao waved at Gu Qing Shan and Lola, then forced a smile:
"Alright, I'll have to say goodbye to you two, I hope that when you're strong enough, you'll be able to help me out"
Gu Qing Shan scowled, thinking about something else.
"Brother Tie Nan, wait a moment"
"Hm? What is it? "Liao Xiao Pao asked.
Gu Qing Shan observed him.
— — -this person is quite strong, and his understanding of the power of worlds is much deeper than mine.
If he comes with me, I'll be able to ask him a lot of knowledge regarding spirits.
His nature leans towards' holy 'and' kind ', at least he isn't too bad, otherwise he wouldn't be able to exert the power of a' Holy Spirit '.
"Gu Qing Shan, what are you thinking?" Lola came closer and asked.
"What do you think will happen if Li becomes his spirit?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Lola was a bit surprised, then also observed Liao Xiao Pao and said: "How about I call Li over to ask?"
"Sure, how do you call her?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Just call her by her name, after all, I have a Bramble Thorn covenant with her" Lola replied.
She closed her eyes and whispered: "Holy Spirits of the Old Grey City, with the help of the Contract of Thorns, obey my call"
A layer of pure white holy light enveloped Lola's body.
A few moments later.
The young girl appeared in front of the two of them.
Compared to the first time they met, the presence she exuded was a bit stronger.
She wore a pure-white ceremonial dress with a thin set of armor, wielding a scepter in her hand, the young girl smiled at the two of them.
"Gu Qing Shan, Lola, I'm here" the young girl said.
Liao Xiao Pao was stunned.
This beautiful young girl — — -
Could she be a spirit?
That's right, since she answered Lola's call, she must be a spirit of the Dusty World!
"Li, how is your world right now?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Thanks to the things that Lola gave me, the entire world has returned to the right track, more and more trees are surviving, insects and small animals will soon be born" the young girl Li replied.
She looked around and asked: "Should we prepare for battle?"
"No, I came to you for something else" Lola replied.
She explained the situation to him.
Li's gaze fell onto Liao Xiao Pao.
"For your sake, it's not that I can't, but I need to take a look at his personality first" Li very seriously said.
Gu Qing Shan and Lola both nodded.
Li walked in front of Liao Xiao Pao and softly said: "Please give me your hand"
Being able to reach this point, Liao Xiao Pao naturally wasn't an idiot, he had already understood the current situation.
He obediently raised his hand.
Li held his hand up and muttered: "The difference between good and evil!"
Layers of white and bloody light erupted from Liao Xiao Pao's body, illuminating their surroundings.
Li scowled and said: "His personality is quite similar to mine, but he's a bit heavy on killing"
Liao Xiao Pao stuttered: "If you don't like it, I can stop killing from now on"
Gu Qing Shan and Lola looked at him in surprise.
Stop killing?
That's a very difficult thing to do.
"Are you serious? You really won't kill anymore? "Li looked at him.
Liao Xiao Pao firmly nodded.
Li looked at him for a while, then said: "Very well, I'll be your spirit, but there are a few things I need to tell you first"
"Please tell me"
"Firstly, when Lola summons me, you cannot summon me"
"Understood"
"Secondly, as I said just now, don't kill anymore"
"Very well"
"Thirdly — — you need to help me collect some resources and help me repair the gloomy Old City world"
"No problem"
Li looked at him and said: "You are a brave knight, you must do what you promised, can you?"
Liao Xiao Pao knelt down on one knee and swore: "Of course I can"
Li finally smiled, reached her finger out, and placed a sprite of light on Liao Xiao Pao's forehead.
"Very well, from now on, whenever you call my name, I will come and fight by your side"
Saying so, she nodded to Gu Qing Shan and Lola before disappearing into the void of space.
— — -she had returned.
Liao Xiao Pao was still kneeling on one knee with a sprite of light on his forehead, his body trembling nonstop.
Gu Qing Shan and Lola exchanged glances, then smiled and waited.
A few moments later, the sprite of light disappeared.
Liao Xiao Pao was still kneeling on the ground, his body trembling nonstop.
Gu Qing Shan and Lola continued to wait.
One minute.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
"Hey, what kind of ritual did you undergo? Why are you still trembling?" Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask.
"Let me sense it, I'm also bound to Li" Lola replied.
She closed her eyes, sensed for a bit, then muttered in confusion: "But the ritual has already been completed, it shouldn't have caused any damage to his body, I wonder why he's still trembling"
Gu Qing Shan sensed something amiss.
Li would be fine.
Neither would Liao Xiao Pao.
Which means there's another spirit trying to harm him?
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan quickly stepped forward, pressed down on Liao Xiao Pao's shoulders, and asked in a solemn voice: "Brother Tienan, what's wrong? Tell me quickly! "
Hearing Gu Qing Shan's question, Liao Xiao Pao seemed to have awoken from his stupor.
He breathed heavily, holding Gu Qing Shan's hand tightly, unable to say a word.
Gu Qing Shan's expression turned grim.
The situation doesn't look good.
Four swords manifested behind his back.
His killing intent had risen!
"Tell me, what's the situation?"
Gu Qing Shan quickly asked, then scanned the surrounding wilderness with her inner sight.
Liao Xiao Pao mumbled something, but she couldn't hear what he said.
He seemed to be in pain, his face was flushed red.
"Speak up!" Gu Qing Shan grabbed Liao Xiao Pao's shoulder and shouted.
Liao Xiao Pao froze, then loudly said:
"I … I love her!"
