The Blade in Gu Qing Shan's hand turned to ash and dissipated into the wind.
The Sacred Wish Tree had given up on summoning.
It had disappeared.
"Divine Wizard, what's going on?" the Bai Shan king was a bit surprised.
Gu Qing Shan smiled bitterly and replied: "What appeared just now was a Huang Quan wraith. Your clan's history had been tampered with by someone. Once someone draws this sword, they would immediately summon those monsters and become their allies"
"What!?" The king was shocked, then thought for a bit and asked: "Which means, there are a lot of such relics in this world, and they're all part of the wraith's schemes?"
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
If it's only relics, even if I take my time to clean them up, I can still clean them up.
But I'm afraid …
While he was thinking, lines of crimson text quickly appeared in front of his eyes:
[You've seen through the truth of this world]
[The Samsara might want to tell you something, prepare yourself, its will is about to descend — —]
Everything around him faded away.
The world turned blank.
Standing in the endless void, Gu Qing Shan suddenly sensed a grand will.
This was the same feeling he had when he was dealing with the various world spirits.
The only difference was that compared to the world spirits of the past, the Samsara's will was even more vast, almost immeasurable and unimaginable.
If he had to compare, the incomplete world spirits of the past were nothing more than insects and ants, while the will of the Samsara was like the endless starry sky.
Slowly, a thought appeared in Gu Qing Shan's mind.
He understood what the Samsara meant.
Lines of crimson text also quickly appeared:
[The Samsara has sent you a request:]
[The corrupted sequence has corrupted two layers of the human tomb, the first is the low-level magic world you see, the second is a middle-level magic world]
[Please banish the corrupted sequence from these two human tombs]
[— — -You've temporarily obtained the ability to travel between two worlds]
[Attention: Very few Holy Chosens receive the Samsara's direct attention, please make good use of this opportunity]
[If you succeed, you will surely gain something]
The lines of crimson text flashed by.
The emptiness around Gu Qing Shan gradually disappeared, and many different sceneries appeared.
He found himself standing in the street of a city.
People came and went in an endless stream.
This was a bustling city.
Two lines of words floated in the air:
"You have arrived at a middle-tier magic world."
"You can return to another elementary magic world at any time."
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
To solve the problem of the corruption of two magical worlds at once was really tricky.
He walked along the street and soon stopped in front of a restaurant.
It was mealtime, and the restaurant was bustling with business. There were almost no empty seats left.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but walk in and sit at the last table.
The waitress hurried over and placed a menu in front of him, asking, "Hello, what would you like to eat?"
Gu Qing Shan looked down at the menu.
There was a dazzling array of dishes on the menu, all of which he had never eaten before.
He casually ordered a few dishes and handed the menu back to the waitress.
As if by magic, the waitress took out a few Cards and placed them on the table.
"Corruption is the foundation of civilization"
She muttered.
Poof poof poof poof!
The Cards disappeared, replaced by the dishes that Gu Qing Shan ordered.
"Please enjoy your meal"
The waitress bowed and retreated.
Gu Qing Shan stared at the steaming hot dishes in front of him, unable to regain his senses.
After a while, he picked up the utensils on the table and lightly flipped through the dishes.
"Hm, no problem … the Cards are only used to temporarily store food …"
He muttered in a low voice and began to eat.
The dishes were quite good, but Gu Qing Shan's attention wasn't on the art of cooking.
He was paying attention to the waitresses.
Every time they took a customer's order, they would chant a prayer, sometimes "Corruption is with you", sometimes "Thank the True God for giving us food".
Most of the time, the customers would also respond with one or two sentences.
As Gu Qing Shan watched, he slowly lost his appetite.
He casually used magic to manifest a few coins, put them on the table, and quickly left the restaurant.
"Sir, do you need a ride?" someone asked at the door.
Gu Qing Shan paused briefly and replied: "Sure"
"Where are you going?"
"This is my first time here, show me around"
"You're clearly not a local, so you're here for a holiday — — I can explain this beautiful city to you for free"
"Thank you"
"You're welcome, praise the fallen decree"
The man smiled as he took out a Card and tossed it next to them.
Poof!
A floating carriage appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan.
The man sat on the driver's seat and waved to Gu Qing Shan: "Please get in and take a seat"
Gu Qing Shan sat on the carriage.
The carriage began to move.
He leaned against the window and silently looked at the scenery outside.
— — -in this city, people were used to using Cards to accomplish many things in their daily lives.
Gu Qing Shan saw that almost every shop along the way had Cards neatly displayed on display.
When people greeted each other, they would always say something to praise the fallen Ones first.
In fact, when the carriage passed by a school, Gu Qing Shan listened attentively and heard a teacher talking about the history of the world, exaggerating the role of the Fallen to the point of no return.
At the center of the city, several merchants were walking out of the City Lord's manor.
They praised: "The City Lord's Fallen Law is becoming more and more profound, he's managed to make a name for himself in the business world"
"That's right, his understanding of the Fallen Law is much deeper than ours"
"Worthy of respect"
The carriage passed by the merchants and continued forward.
Not too far away was the Holy Church.
— — -just like the primary magic world from before, this was also a Fallen Church.
On the square in front of the church, quite a few people were loudly singing praises of the beautiful life that the Fallen True God had granted them.
In the graveyard behind the church, a funeral was being held.
The priest said loudly, "His body will decay, and his soul will fall."
Everyone praised in unison.
The relatives of the deceased all appeared glad.
The carriage continued forward.
Gu Qing Shan felt more and more anxious and couldn't help but call out: "Stop"
The carriage slowly stopped.
"Sir, what is it?" the driver asked.
"Is that a bookstore over there?"
"Yes"
"Help me buy a few books, history and military books, the ones that sell well" Gu Qing Shan casually manifested a few magic coins.
"Very well, please wait a moment"
The driver quickly bought the books and brought them to Gu Qing Shan.
The carriage continued to move.
Gu Qing Shan sat inside the carriage, several books were floating in front of him, quickly flipping through them.
About 5 minutes later, he had finished reading everything.
The books fell down and neatly lined up on a small table on the side.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and muttered: "This level is even more terrifying than the previous world …"
He couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
— — no matter how desperate the battle was, Gu Qing Shan wouldn't even blink.
But the situation in front of him caused him to shiver.
This feeling of terror was even greater than the two Apocalypses of the past.
— — -the Fallen had been deeply ingrained into everyone's heart, becoming a value that everyone recognized.
Generation after generation, the people of this world had followed the will of the Fallen to live, grow, and build their civilization.
From birth to death, everyone had voluntarily respected it, protected it, and obeyed it.
— — because the Fallen was the civilization of living beings, guiding them on how to exist.
Living beings were willing to sacrifice everything for the Fallen without any resistance against the will of the Fallen.
"Cultural invasion? No … the invasion was already a success … "
"This is a complete change in civilization"
Gu Qing Shan sighed and sighed emotionally.
This world was even more prosperous than the previous world of basic magic.
Their belief and understanding of civilization was even more deeply rooted in the hearts of living beings.
What should I do?
Persuasion won't work.
Slaughter …
Slaughter can only kill living beings, but it can't erase their belief — — all living beings were already part of the Fallen faction.
This was even scarier than the Apocalypse.
The Apocalypse only killed a single person, or many people.
In the process of destroying everything, living beings would struggle, desperately resist, and think of a way to win against the Apocalypse.
But the Fallen doesn't kill.
It transforms everything, turning all living beings into its servants.
— — worshiping it as a God.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then called the carriage to a halt.
"Hello, are you not going to sit down?" the carriage driver asked.
"I'm fine, thank you" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He got off the carriage, walked into a secluded street, then took advantage of the fact that there was no one around to fly into the sky.
In the following period of time, he traveled to various countries in the world in accordance with the books he read before, conducting field research.
Everything was exactly the same as what was described in the history books.
If I had to put it bluntly, I could come up with this conclusion:
The sky, earth, and all resources of this world belonged to the Samsara, but living beings were already part of the Fallen faction.
— — -this was the world of the Fallen faction!
