The bolt of lightning was too fast.
It was like a blurred line, drawing a blue arc of lightning on the ground.
All of a sudden.
A hysterical voice resounded:
「 I surrender! I surrender! 」
After this voice, the bolt of lightning finally disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan followed the inertia and ran forward a few steps, slowly stopping in the middle of the snowy ground.
He was wearing that mask — — -
On the mask was a lifeless face.
"You really surrender?"
His voice came from behind the mask.
「 Hoh … hoh … yes, I surrender 」 the snake monster breathed heavily.
Its body was covered in thin wounds that were constantly bleeding, making it look extremely pitiful.
Gu Qing Shan turned into a Thunder Demon and continued to kill.
But the snake monster was tied down by 7-8 chains, unable to evade or resist at all.
"Very well, tell me, what exactly are those palaces up ahead?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The snake monster stared at him, breathing heavily as it tried asking: 「 Aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you? 」
Gu Qing Shan swung the Blade in her hand and casually replied: "It's best if you use information in exchange for your life — — - your strength seems to have been completely sealed, and you can't stop my Blade, I advise you to make a wise choice"
In the snowstorm, the snake monster fell silent.
— — this brat's greatest ability is to run away.
If he didn't die and came back to take revenge, that would be terrible.
「 I don't remember anything else, but I do remember that those palaces not too far away are called the Palaces of Fear 」 the snake monster said.
"Palaces of Fear … why does it sound like an Apocalypse?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 Indeed, every person who enters this world will face a type of Apocalypse — — - this is a test of the Samsara 」 the snake monster replied.
"A test of the Samsara? Why would there be a test? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 I don't know either, when I woke up, I already forgot everything, was heavily wounded, and was trapped in this snowstorm — — - almost everyone who's still alive here is the same as me 」 the snake monster replied.
Gu Qing Shan hesitated a bit.
— — -why did this snake monster also lose its memories from being heavily wounded like me?
Fortunately, he had recovered his memories.
"You've forgotten everything else, but you still remember the Fear Palace," Gu Qing Shan confirmed.
「 Yes, I only remember it 」 the snake monster replied.
"Tell me about it" Gu Qing Shan said.
The snake monster spoke in a low voice: 「 It is a unique type of Apocalypse, those who enter it will face millions upon millions of terrifying things. As soon as they feel fear and dread in their hearts, their various abilities would be drained away, until even the ability to speak, walk, and even resist would be stripped away. At this point, the truly terrifying things would begin — — 」
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 The entire palace will devour your soul and body at an extremely slow speed. The entire process will take a very long time. You won't be able to do anything other than feel yourself being devoured, 」 the snake monster said.
Gu Qing Shan was wearing a mask, so it was impossible to see her expression.
He stood motionless as if in deep thought.
After a while.
Gu Qing Shan finally asked: "You're saying that every person who enters this place will face a type of Apocalypse?"
「 Indeed, the fact that you chose this direction is your greatest fortune 」 the snake monster coldly smirked.
"Why do you say that?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 — — You haven't run into the type of Apocalypse where you die as soon as you meet 」 the snake monster replied.
Gu Qing Shan nodded: "If that's the case, then my luck is indeed quite good"
He put his Blade away and continued to walk past the snake monster.
Going further and further.
The snake monster's voice came from afar: 「 You really won't kill me? 」
Gu Qing Shan didn't turn around and replied: "I said I'll use information in exchange for your life — — - if you're lying, it won't be too late for me to come back and kill you"
His figure disappeared into the snowstorm.
…
A minute later.
Gu Qing Shan stood in front of a large palace.
This is the Fear Palace?
I've never seen such a strange Apocalypse before.
While she was thinking, a small door suddenly appeared on the red wall of the palace.
The door was tightly shut.
Within the snowstorm, countless cries of pain and begging for mercy could be faintly heard.
Gu Qing Shan didn't walk forward right away.
He stood outside the door and loudly asked: "Excuse me, what is this place?"
Instantly, all the cries of pain and begging disappeared.
"Ahahahaha!"
Innumerable laughter resounded.
These laughter were filled with indescribable malice.
Any normal person would feel panicked just by listening to these laughter.
Suddenly, a line of blood-red text appeared in the void of space:
[Attention, you have entered the range of the Apocalypse – Fear Palace]
[This is the beginning of the Elemental War]
[From now on, you cannot feel any emotions of fear, otherwise you will be doomed eternally]
[Attention:]
"Nothing can hurt the brave."
Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through and couldn't help but feel a bit surprised.
— — I haven't even entered the palace yet, and it's already started?
He suddenly looked up at the palace gate.
A skeleton leapt over the palace wall and landed at the palace gate.
There was a layer of dry skin on the surface of the skeleton, and the skin was full of cracks, giving off a sense of decay.
Numerous human heads emerged from the ground, all of which were stepped on by the skeleton's feet.
Standing on top of the heads, the skeleton hooked its hand at Gu Qing Shan.
[You want to enter? You'll have to get through me first!] it spoke in a low voice.
Gu Qing Shan stood still.
The skeleton chuckled: [You're scared already? Mortal?]
Gu Qing Shan very seriously replied: "No — — you still haven't told me where exactly this place is"
The skeleton picked up a head from the ground, ignored the head's screams and begging, and began to chomp on it.
When it was halfway through eating, the head was still begging for mercy.
The snowstorm stopped.
The world was silent.
Only the sound of the skeleton chewing on the head could be heard, making one's hair stand on end.
After the skeleton finished eating the entire head, it slowly spoke: [This place is the paradise of the Demon Kings of the infinite worlds, the great palace that all living beings fear. Evil will become infinitely more powerful here, do you want to come in and give it a try?]
"Sure" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The skeleton suddenly picked up a head from the ground and threw it.
The head rolled a few times in the air before falling towards Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan was wearing a mask so her expression couldn't be seen, so she asked: "What are you doing?"
[These skulls are quite tasty, I'll give you one for free] the skeleton laughed.
Gu Qing Shan took a few steps back to make way, then drew her bow as the head fell to the ground.
Sha — — -
An arrow flew out, pierced through the head, and nailed it to the palace wall.
The head continued to let out miserable screams before finally disappearing into the palace walls.
Clang!
The arrow was knocked out by the wall and fell to the ground, giving off a clear sound.
[What, you don't even dare to eat a head? Are you afraid?] the skeleton chuckled in a low voice.
Gu Qing Shan casually replied: "You piece of trash, you gave me something you stepped on to eat, your feet are so sticky, I don't know how long you haven't washed them — — - is that how you treat your guest? You think I don't dare to kill you? "
The skeleton was surprised.
Gu Qing Shan drew an arrow, nocked it on the bowstring and fired.
Boom!
The palace gate was shot open by his arrow, revealing the deep darkness inside.
But the skeleton was nowhere to be seen.
As soon as Gu Qing Shan entered the palace gate, he was swallowed by the darkness and couldn't be seen anymore.
Looking at the palace gate again — — -
The palace gate was also gone. The palace wall was completely empty, without a single thing on it.
Gu Qing Shan continued to move forward in the darkness.
His surroundings were narrow and dark, giving off an inexplicable sense of coldness, as if he was in a tunnel instead of a palace.
As he walked, he suddenly heard the sound of sobbing.
The sobbing came from the front, then from the back, it was so faint that he couldn't tell where it came from.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and shouted: "Who is it? What's the matter? "
The sobbing became even more sorrowful.
Gu Qing Shan put his bow away, wielded his Blade, and carefully walked into the darkness.
Not too long after, the sobbing became louder and louder, more and more hysterical.
Not too far away, the silhouette of a woman appeared.
Her back was facing Gu Qing Shan, crouching on the ground, sobbing.
Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan hurriedly walked towards the woman and asked: "What happened?"
The woman turned around, only to see that her eyes and nose had been gouged out, bleeding profusely.
Her chest was covered in blood, all of her organs were gone, not even a single bone could be seen.
Her flesh was still twitching, exuding a sense of wickedness.
"I died so tragically — — -"
Before the woman could finish, she noticed that there was a piece of clothing on her body.
Gu Qing Shan had already taken off his jacket and wrapped it around the woman.
"Tell me, you're a woman. Why are you crying in public without any clothes on?"
He scolded her.
The woman's eyes and nose were bleeding, but she continued: "I died so tragically — — -"
Before she could finish, Gu Qing Shan had already pulled her to a corner of the tunnel.
"Listen" Gu Qing Shan spoke with a serious expression: "Running around on the street without any clothes on, that's called indecency. You look like you just got into a car accident, so I won't call the police to deal with you, but — — -"
His voice suddenly became stern: "If you do this again, I won't have any more clothes for you. Be careful of those people with bad intentions, they like to take pictures of you"
"Be careful!"
Gu Qing Shan patted the woman's shoulder, turned around to leave.
The woman was stunned, then realized.
She grabbed Gu Qing Shan's hand and screamed: "I'm a ghost! The most vicious of ghosts! "
Sure enough, Gu Qing Shan stopped.
He crouched down again and seriously asked: "Which realm of ghosts are you from? Huang Quan realm? Or the Wraith realm? "
The woman's entire body was covered in blood, her expression twisted as she screamed: "I'm from the Unending Hell, the most vicious of the 18 layers of hell — — -"
"Listen to me" Gu Qing Shan cut her off and casually said: "Regardless of which layer of hell you're from, as soon as you come out, you represent the image of hell, I won't allow you to do something indecent — — -"
"I won't forgive you next time, you better keep that in mind"
After saying that, he seemed to have lost interest in asking, let go of the woman's hand, and quickly walked into the darkness.
