"Withdraw!"
Gu Qing Shan lightly shouted.
Within the boundless sea of clouds, the millions of flying swords vanished, leaving only a single sword hovering next to him.
"[Delimitation], I want to know exactly what happened back then" Gu Qing Shan said.
The sword circled around him once and spoke: 「 You need to activate your mind and cooperate with me to create a world, I will show you exactly what happened back then 」
Gu Qing Shan pondered: "Is this the Senluo Sword Realm, or [Reflection]?"
「 Because it was something that I personally experienced, it can be directly shown — — - it can be considered a combination of two abilities 」 the sword replied.
"Come, let me see the truth!" Gu Qing Shan said.
He wielded the sword with both hands and stabbed it into the ground — —
Senluo Sword Realm, [Reflection]!
A line of crimson text appeared in the void of space:
[You are about to leave the Origin World and enter the Phase Realm that you created]
Instantly, the sea of clouds, the palace, the Tianma, the fellow disciples, all disappeared from Gu Qing Shan's side.
A dim world slowly unfolded in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes.
The sword continued: 「 The Wraith Daolord and the Dragon race worked together to summon me into the Samsara. One day has passed — — 」
Boom!!!
A deafening explosion resounded.
In the sky, various Apocalyptic monsters of various shapes and sizes were flying back and forth, wielding various weapons in their hands as they invaded the Wraith realm.
These Apocalyptic monsters were too powerful, easily destroying a large number of wraiths with just a wave of their hands.
The Wraith realm world was in shambles.
「 The decisive battle has begun 」
The Delimitation sword continued: 「 The wraiths didn't expect the Apocalypse to directly invade their world, so the Wraith Daolord had no choice but to borrow my power and fight with everything he had 」
Gu Qing Shan looked around.
Only to see the wraiths all roaring in unison.
The Wraith Daolord had appeared.
He wore a suit of black armor, a mask of evil on his head, wielded the Delimitation sword, and exuded powerful Wraith Origin power fluctuations.
This level of power far surpassed that of Gu Qing Shan, not something he could compare to.
The Evil Ghost Daoist Lord shouted, formed a sword seal, and threw the sword in his hand into the sky.
The long sword instantly split into millions of swords, like a storm of sword shadows, whistling in the air.
Golden sword shadows swept across the sky, wiping out the apocalyptic monsters in the sky.
The Delimitation sword replied: 「 Although the Wraith Path's Lord isn't a swordsman, he's extremely powerful, not to mention the Wraith Path's inheritance of powerful Wraith Path Sword Scriptures, he managed to comprehend a few of them and borrowed my power to kill his enemies 」
Gu Qing Shan looked at the battlefield and saw tens of thousands of swords shooting endlessly. In just a few rounds, all the apocalyptic monsters were killed.
After a while.
Another batch of stronger Apocalyptic Monsters appeared in the sky.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord shouted: "Come, Shamans, transfer your power to me, I will use the ancient sword art to increase the power of my flying swords, making them even more lethal!"
"Yes, my lord!"
The Shamans surrounded the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord, chanting the incantation to transfer all of their power to him.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord raised his hands and formed a sword seal.
Tens of thousands of swords flew back and forth in the sky.
The apocalyptic monsters were all killed.
The sky suddenly turned dark, and a dense cluster of stars appeared in the sky.
These stars gave off a cold glow, illuminating the wraiths on the ground.
Dark blue lines appeared one after another, connecting the countless stars and forming a boundless net.
A resounding voice resounded across the entire world:
[To celebrate the advent of this Apocalypse, the first round of the game will now begin]
[Starting from a certain person, each of you must describe the connection between yourself and all things, or living beings, to be verified by this game]
[The first round is about to begin, you must prove that you have at least two connections to each other, no more than once]
[Those who can do it, congratulations on winning the right to live on]
[If someone can't even prove three connections …]
[They will be finished!]
This stance was — — -
Gu Qing Shan exclaimed in shock: "Oh no, this is [Siming]!"
There's no mistaking it, this supernatural phenomenon was the Apocalypse: [Siming]'s descent!
This was an Apocalypse that couldn't be defeated with brute force.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord hurriedly called out: "Divine sword! Activate the Limitless Sword Realm and take all wraiths away! "
A completely new world abruptly manifested from the void of space and enveloped all the wraiths.
All living beings on the ground had disappeared.
[Siming] had lost its target.
— — -it couldn't unleash its destructive power!
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord stood inside the sword realm with an excited expression and ordered:
"Go! We're leaving this world, we're heading to the Heaven realm to reinforce the Sovereign! "
Following his voice, the new world left the Wretched Ghost realm and began to travel through the void of space.
"Ahahaha, sir, with this sword in hand, we Samsara will be able to turn the tables!"
"It was thanks to the Dao Lord's wisdom that he managed to summon this sword"
"Our Wretched Ghost realm is going to be famous soon!"
"We're going to win this time!"
The wraiths all cheered.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord also smiled and told the Grand Shaman: "I've given up all the treasures I've accumulated for over ten million years in order to summon this sword — — I know you've all been feeling heartache, what else do you have to say?"
The Grand Shaman lowered his head: "Dao Lord, you were right, this sword's Thaumaturgy is unfathomable, once we meet up with the Emperor Of Heaven, we'll be able to reverse the entire situation"
"Ahahaha, that's what I was thinking as well!" the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord laughed.
Suddenly, the entire realm stopped.
It was no longer traveling forward, instead hovering in the void of space, completely motionless.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord asked in surprise: "Divine sword, why did you stop?"
The Delimitation sword replied: 「 Something is stopping me, be careful, it's coming — — 」
Boom!
The world shook without end.
A hole was torn open in the sky, and a series of black pipes filled the void, trying to reach into the world.
"What is this!?" the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord exclaimed in shock.
Before he could finish, the black pipes had already descended.
The wraiths all froze in place as if they were scared stiff, allowing the black pipes to pierce through their heads and suck the flesh and blood out of their bodies.
"Destroy these pipes!" the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord shouted.
He changed his hand seal, and the long sword flew out, slashing at the densely packed black pipes.
Large chunks of the pipes were broken, scattering flesh and blood all over the sky.
Hoh — — -
The shrill sound of an insect resounded from beyond the sky.
The hole in the sky was slowly becoming larger.
An incomparably ferocious presence exuded, as if something was faintly moving.
All the black pipes retracted.
A bright color covered the hole in the sky, then began to enter the world through the hole.
Although he didn't know what this body was, it was clearly a type of insect.
— — an insect that he had never seen before.
"Grand Shaman, is this the Apocalypse? Or some other entity? "the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord hurriedly asked.
The Grand Shaman was sweating profusely, panicking: "… I don't know, I've never heard of such a terrifying entity existing within the Samsara"
"Give me your full support!" the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord shouted.
"Yes!"
All the Shamans quickly formed hand seals, muttered an incantation, and transferred all of their power to the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord.
"Divine sword to kill the enemy!" the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord shouted.
The Delimitation sword flew out from his hand and slashed at the bright insect's body — — -
Kih!
A resounding sound that could split rocks resounded across heaven and earth.
The bright insect's body lightly trembled, then abruptly unleashed billions of needle-like spikes to knock the flying sword down.
The flying sword screeched as it returned to the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord's hand.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord was sweating profusely, muttering blankly: "Oh no, even the Divine sword can't deal with it — — it's too powerful, far more powerful than we could imagine"
Gu Qing Shan had been silently watching this, but couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
But this was only the past, a shadow of the past, so the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord naturally couldn't see him.
Hoh — —
The shrill sound of an insect resounded.
The wraiths all slowly knelt on the ground. Faint figures emerged from their bodies, flying towards the half insect body that reached into the world.
This was eating souls!
Among the millions of wraiths, the number of them that could stop this insect's cry could be counted on two hands.
For a moment, the sky was filled with souls, but they were quickly sucked into the bright insect's stomach and disappeared without a trace.
"What … what kind of monster … is this?"
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord muttered.
The three Shamans that were protecting him were already at their limits.
"Run, Daoist, quickly run!" the Grand Priest shouted.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord regained his senses.
That's right.
At this time — — -
As he was about to act, the void of space shifted as a glowing page manifested from thin air.
This page was similar to the one that hovered above the Heavenly Court and the starry sky city.
It carried the will of the Samsara.
"Sir, look, it's a page of the Samsara — — the will of the Samsara hasn't given up on us this time!" the Grand Priest excitedly shouted.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord reached his hand out, trembling as he received the page and looked at it.
"We … have a way to survive …"
He muttered as his gaze fell onto the Divine sword.
The Grand Priest hurriedly asked: "Daoist, what should we do?"
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord didn't say anything, only gritted his teeth and abruptly placed the page of the Samsara onto the Divine sword's hilt.
The sword let out a mournful cry as its glow dimmed.
"Daoist?" the Grand Priest was surprised.
"There's no other way, this sword is too powerful, the fluctuations it gives off have attracted that monster — — - the Samsara told me to use this method to split the Divine sword, that monster naturally wouldn't be able to find us again" the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord resolutely declared.
"But — — -"
"No buts, we need to survive first before we think about anything else!"
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord grabbed the hilt of the sword and pulled, separating it from the hilt.
In a split second, a crack appeared in the void of space.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord and the Delimitation sword both fell into it, escaping from that plane world.
They continued to fall into the endless darkness, flying and falling. After an unknown amount of time, they finally landed in a barren land covered in dust.
This was a graveyard.
A great graveyard.
The Wretched Ghost Dao Lord was unconscious.
The page of the book flew up and gave off a 5-colored light that enveloped him.
A few moments later, the Wretched Ghost Dao Lord turned into a ghostly figure and slowly entered the sword hilt.
The page circled around the sword hilt and hilt a few times, then once again gave off light and manifested a line of text in the air:
[The great graveyard is about to be completed, from now on, you will be responsible for guarding the great graveyard]
The scene stopped at this point.
Everything slowly faded away.
Gu Qing Shan looked around and found herself once again above the sea of clouds. Outside the palace.
A voice resounded in her ears:
"Did you see everything?"
— – the Delimitation sword.
"Hm, the person you ran into wasn't a swordsman, and you fell into a trap that forced you to guard the great graveyard. After so many years, you must have suffered a lot" Gu Qing Shan consoled him.
The sword circled around him once, then replied: [We aren't completely safe, I've always believed in this, so I can't tell you anything. You'll need to think about what you saw yourself]
Gu Qing Shan nodded, then turned around to look at everyone.
His presence abruptly rose and asked: "What do you think we should do now?"
The Progenitor Fiendess replied: [The Emperor Heaven has told us that from now on, you are Bai Hua Sect's Sect Master. From now on, we will follow your every order]
She knelt down first, followed by Li Yang and the other Tianma, bowing to Gu Qing Shan.
Qing Rou and Wan Er exchanged glances and also bowed: "Sect Master, we will follow your every order"
Gu Qing Shan turned to Qin Xiaolou.
Qin Xiaolou jumped forward and grabbed his sleeve, speaking with a sobbing tone: "Qing Shan, Shifu told us to explore the void of space, but what exactly should we do?"
Gu Qing Shan put her hand on his shoulder and softly asked: "Xiao Lou, will you listen to my orders?"
Qin Xiaolou gritted his teeth and replied: "Of course I will!"
Gu Qing Shan casually said: "Very well, now tell me everything that happened when the two Shifu met from start to finish. Every expression, every movement, even every word they said, not a single word can be omitted. If you omit anything, that would be a great disrespect to the sect, deceiving their Shifu and destroying their ancestors, I will hold you accountable!"
"Yes!" Qin Xiaolou answered.
He told them everything that happened at that time in detail.
After he finished, Gu Qing Shan had everyone fill in the details.
Everyone gathered together, put together everything they could think of and reported it to Gu Qing Shan.
After hearing everything, Gu Qing Shan turned around and walked into the great hall without turning back: "Before I come out, no one is to disturb me"
The door closed with a bang.
Everyone stood at the door, exchanging glances.
"What is Sect Master trying to do?" the Progenitor Fiendess couldn't help but whisper.
She looked at the people of Bai Hua Sect.
Qin Xiaolou's expression was bitter, his eyes were bloodshot, but he didn't say a word.
Wan Er and Qing Rou exchanged glances.
Qing Rou muttered: "He's not willing"
…
Gu Qing Shan walked to the end of the great hall and sat facing the wall.
He fell into deep thought.
Time slowly passed.
A few hours had already passed without a sound.
"Their words and actions … there aren't too many problems …"
"It was only after the Progenitor Fiendess appeared that Shifu's attitude changed substantially …"
Gu Qing Shan reached his hand out and slowly wrote on the wall:
"My deer cry, eating the wild apple"
"I have guests, playing the lute and blowing the flute"
"Bright as the moon, when will it be gone"
"Sorrow comes from within, never to be cut off"
He looked at the poem silently.
After a while, he muttered to himself: "The Progenitor Fiendess said that this is only a poem from a certain mortal world, that world has no background or secrets"
— — -then what did Shifu tell the Progenitor Fiendess to remember this verse to remind herself?
Why didn't she remember it herself?
Could it be that there's some sort of secret that could affect her safety?
This is only a poem from a mortal world, and Shifu cut off a part of it.
Combined with Shifu's own situation, how should I interpret it?
Gu Qing Shan looked at the first line of the poem — — -
"My deer cry, eating the wild apple"
Deer …
After a bit of hesitation, he wrote a few words next to this verse:
"Heroes compete for supremacy"
What counts as heroes compete for supremacy?
What counts as heroes compete for supremacy?
He raised his hand and wrote four words in a flamboyant style.
"Samsara Clash for Supremacy"
After writing it, he looked at it again, then looked at the remaining half of the verse.
"— — eating the wild apple"
Eat.
Eat means eat.
Eat what?
Eat the wild apple.
— — who eats?
As Gu Qing Shan stared at these words, he felt a chill in his heart.
