A group of Hellspawn stopped in front of Gu Qing Shan.
"You're awake?"
The leader of the Hellspawn crouched down and asked.
"Ah … where is this place?" Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.
He saw the occasional dead being washed ashore by the river. Squads of Hellspawn were standing guard on top of the river, as soon as they noticed someone being washed ashore, they would immediately come forward to ask about the situation.
Not too far away, another dead person had just woken up.
The Hellspawn took a look and loudly declared: "It's a normal person"
They dragged the dead person and threw him to the other side of the river.
Splash!
The dead person didn't even have time to say anything before he sank into the water and quickly disappeared.
— — -the Forgetting River.
On the other side of the river was the Forgetting River.
As soon as they entered the Forgetting River, they forgot everything and went to reincarnate.
Gu Qing Shan pondered this.
It seems that as long as they reincarnate, they would completely belong to the Samsara.
If they haven't reincarnated, they wouldn't be under the control of the Samsara. It was this loophole that the Eternal Thought Stealer took advantage of.
While he was thinking, the Hellspawn's polite voice resounded in his ears:
"This place is Huang Quan, for you, it's another world of death, you don't need to know anything else. Now tell me, what Professionist were you when you were alive?" the Hellspawn asked.
Gu Qing Shan regained his senses and looked at the Hellspawn in front of him.
A normal person would be thrown into the Forgetting River to reincarnate.
Do Professionists have other uses?
He answered without hesitation: "I'm a Necromancer"
"You're a Necromancer?" the Hellspawn asked again.
"Yes" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"What can you summon?" the Hellspawn asked.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and looked at the void of space.
Lines of crimson text appeared there:
[You are the Death God of the River of Life and Death]
[The True Old Demon – Infinite Worlds Overseer had concealed your identity and used the power of the Saint Realm to once again grant you the authority of the Death God]
[— — You can summon the living beings of the River of Death at any time and have them fight for you]
[Attention:]
[Only you know about this, no one else would be able to see through you]
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: "Sir, I can summon the dead to fight"
He casually stretched out his hand and shook it.
Death God Summoning!
A few cracks appeared on the rocky beach, and one by one, the dead crawled out of the ground.
These dead people wore broken armors and held various weapons, silently standing behind Gu Qing Shan.
"They're all normal soldiers, if there's a need to fight, I'll summon stronger ones" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The Ghost Soldiers stared blankly at the Undead Knights.
How could he be an ordinary warrior?
These knights were surging with a murderous aura, as well as a dense corrosive power of death.
— — They were all experts in close combat.
The ghost soldier took a deep look at Gu Qing Shan, took out a red token, and handed it to another ghost soldier behind him.
"Go, bring this … Sir to report."
"Yes."
The ghost soldier took the red token and came in front of Gu Qing Shan.
"Your Excellency, the others still have to wait here to receive the dead from the River of Death. Please report to me first," the Spectral Soldier said.
"Report?"
Gu Qing Shan asked. He stood up from the rocky beach, circulating his undead energy to dry his wet robe.
"Indeed, with your strength, it would be a waste for you to reincarnate directly. You will need to be registered, then directly converted through the Beast Transformation Pond to become a part of Huang Quan's ghosts" the Spectral Soldier respectfully replied.
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a bit, then smiled: "Very well, please lead the way"
— — -that Beast Transformation Pond or whatever it is, it must be a new method that the Samsara came up with, directly using the high-level dead of the River of Death to increase Huang Quan's strength, while also checking if there are any suspicious people among the dead of the River of Death.
The Spectral Soldier brought Gu Qing Shan away from the intersection of the Forgetting River and the River of Death, heading towards a palace not too far away.
Gu Qing Shan quickly recognized the palace with a single glance.
— — the Samsara Temple.
The center of power that controls all of Huang Quan's affairs.
He and the Spectral Soldier quickly approached the Samsara Temple.
There were already several long lines of people waiting here, the dead that had just woken up were being led by the Spectral Soldier, waiting to enter the Samsara Temple.
As Gu Qing Shan was about to join the line, the Spectral Soldier said: "Your Excellency, we will go in directly"
"Ah? Why is that? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Your strength isn't something these people could compare to, and your abilities are especially suitable for our Huang Quan" the Spectral Soldier respectfully replied.
It raised the red badge and shouted: "Use this badge to report!"
The red badge flew up and quickly flew towards the Samsara Temple, quickly disappearing inside.
"Let's go, the higher-ups already know about the situation"
The Spectral Soldier told Gu Qing Shan.
"Very well"
Gu Qing Shan followed the Spectral Soldier forward, looking at the lines of people.
Some of the dead were filled with life force, while others were filled with the presence of Light.
— — -although they were also Metahumans, they definitely wouldn't be able to do that in a place like Huang Quan.
Wood-type healing techniques wouldn't work here, since everyone was already dead, there's no way to heal them.
As for the power of Light …
You're a dead person that exudes the presence of Light, you'll be able to reincarnate in the next moment, basically dying again on the spot.
— — -that's not a good feeling.
From the looks of it, the identity of a Necromancer is a good cover — — to hide the fact that I'm the God of Death.
Gu Qing Shan silently thought.
The True Ancient Demon – Infinity Worlds Overseer had spent quite a bit of effort in preparing this identity.
Gu Qing Shan was a bit grateful, silently making a mental note to find whatever it wants to eat next time.
They didn't talk on the way.
The Spectral Soldier led him past the long line of people and entered the Samsara Temple.
Two official-looking people immediately came over and clasped their hands to greet Gu Qing Shan: "Thank you for your hard work, please enter the Beast Transformation Pond first"
Gu Qing Shan also mimicked them and clasped his hands a bit awkwardly: "May I ask, what exactly is the Beast Transformation Pond used for?"
One of the officials smiled and said, "When two worlds of death fuse into one, the dead inside will naturally feel out of place. The Beast Transformation Pond is a fusion of the two worlds, allowing the awakened dead to directly receive the recognition of the new fused world, allowing them to do whatever they want from then on."
"A form of recognition based on status" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Indeed, your excellency's understanding of the Laws of the world truly is profound, please enter the pond now" the official politely smiled.
Gu Qing Shan looked towards where he was pointing.
At a corner of the Samsara Temple, there was a spring that had formed into a pond, giving off a faint mist.
At the same time, several fully-armored Wraith Generals were staring at him.
"Very well, I'll give it a try"
Gu Qing Shan quickly walked towards the Beast Transformation Pond and jumped in.
As he submerged himself in the pond, lines of red text appeared in front of his eyes:
[You are indeed a powerful entity within the Dead River]
[The state of the Samsara has been confirmed]
[Your everything has been recognized by the Samsara, from now on you can freely merge into the Samsara world]
[Your strength has been preserved, your identity has also been changed]
[From now on, you are a Wraith Horde of Huang Quan]
[Also: Within the Samsara, only fate cannot be erased]
[Although you have lost all your past identities, you are still the former Devil King of Huang Quan, and the current God of the Dead River]
[If you can find the Scythe of the Death God, or the Devil King Warden Rod, your power will be boosted by both worlds of death]
All the text disappeared.
The heavy power of Huang Quan exuded from his Thought Sea.
This power was so thick that it was almost golden in color, illuminating Gu Qing Shan's entire body, almost as if it was about to burst out of his body and form a shocking phenomenon.
This was the true power of the Death God!
Gu Qing Shan's mind moved.
Instantly, all the golden light disappeared.
The phenomenon disappeared as quickly as it appeared, so no one in the hall was alerted.
Whoosh — —
Gu Qing Shan leapt out from the Beast Transformation Pond.
At this point, the two officials' gazes had become a lot friendlier.
"Congratulations on joining Huang Quan, may I ask for your name?" one of the officials asked.
"Rhode" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Very well, Rhode — — take this and pick out something useful" the official said.
He gave Gu Qing Shan a badge with the word [Reincarnation] engraved on it.
"What is this?" Gu Qing Shan curiously asked.
The official smiled and answered with a serious expression: "You will find out sooner or later. Right now, the Samsara world is undergoing a great war for supremacy, and the Divine Armaments of the Samsara are under our care"
"So I can pick out a Divine Armament right away?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The official was shocked and hurriedly denied: "How is that possible!"
The other official explained: "In truth, there are a lot of treasures that aren't part of the Samsara, all of them were taken into Huang Quan during the war for supremacy, you can choose one of those treasures"
"Pick as I please?" Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
The official cleared his throat and answered: "Of the four grades of treasures, you can only choose a grade D treasure, after all, it's free"
"What about better treasures?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"You will have one day of complete freedom to wander around Huang Quan and learn more about this world, then you will understand" the official answered.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
The twin swords Heaven and Earth, Chao Yin, and Adorable are all treasures that aren't part of the Samsara, so I thought I could just take them back.
Turns out I was excited for nothing.
"Very well, then please take me to pick something" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Please"
Gu Qing Shan was quickly led to a tightly shut door at the back of the hall.
"Please use your badge" the official said.
Gu Qing Shan waved the badge at the door.
The door opened with a loud rumble.
Behind the door was a long tunnel that led to an unknown place.
"Let me remind you, don't waste too much time here, as long as the items are decent enough — — there's nothing particularly good here" the official told her.
"A grade D treasure is the lowest grade, isn't it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"That's right, pick a usable weapon or armor, that's actually the most practical" the official admitted.
Gu Qing Shan nodded and walked into the tunnel.
The door closed behind him.
