[The sleeping Chao Yin sword has awoken]
As soon as Gu Qing Shan read this, he couldn't help but feel happy.
He forcefully stopped in mid-air, drew the Chao Yin sword, and released his inner sight: "You're awake?"
The Chao Yin sword let out a clear chime.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and was about to say something else, but the sword fell silent again.
Another line of scarlet words appeared:
[Attention, the awakened Chao Yin sword has fallen asleep again]
Gu Qing Shan froze.
— — -why did it fall asleep again right after waking up?
Could it be that something went wrong during the advancement process?
A layer of faint black light suddenly appeared on the longsword, enveloping the entire longsword.
The notification appeared again:
[Someone has performed a Causality Law spell on this sword]
[When it recognizes its master again, it will activate a certain scene from the past]
[Only after you've seen this scene will the Chao Yin sword awaken again]
Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized.
Right, the giant corpse mentioned this before — — -
"… I've hidden a few secrets with your sword … go find the sword in the Forgetting River …"
I need to see the secrets left behind by the giant corpse before the Chao Yin sword can fully awaken!
A deafening roar suddenly resounded in the sky.
Gu Qing Shan's expression changed and immediately disappeared.
While it sounds slow, it only took him a single breath's worth of time. But it was in that single breath's worth of time that the giant stardust face in the sky dispelled his Secret Art and counterattacked.
A blinding flash of light shot towards where Gu Qing Shan originally stood and struck the ground.
Boom — — -
The entire planet completely collapsed, giving off a huge amount of residual energy that slowly dissipated into the cold darkness of space like a remnant flame in the wind.
Seeing this from afar, Gu Qing Shan put the Chao Yin sword away.
— — -now isn't the time to look at the secrets, I need to fight first.
He took out a set of armor and lightly tapped it.
The armor instantly turned into a dozen components that quickly attached themselves to his body.
— — – [Battlemage's special anti-demon armor]
[Characteristics: Medium sturdiness, elementary magic resistance, agility]
Gu Qing Shan moved around and was satisfied with the armor.
If his armor was sturdy enough, he wouldn't have had to dodge so quickly just now. He could even face the monster head-on and find an opportunity to attack from its gaps.
"Alright, let's fight."
He gripped the Delimitation sword and shouted at the Stardust Giant Face.
The huge stardust face slowly revealed a hint of mockery as it softly said, "Fight?"
"What, are you going to surrender?" Gu Qing Shan said.
"No … Foolish creature, do you think that you can deal with my attack just by relying on the shell on your body?"
The giant stardust face muttered in a low voice, "Spiritless Armor. You can't even face me, because I fight under the will of the Lord of All Things."
Following its declaration, Gu Qing Shan's armor began to let out a series of cracking noises.
Hualalala —
The entire armor turned into smoke and dust, peeling off from Gu Qing Shan's body and drifting in the universe, gradually dispersing and disappearing.
Gu Qing Shan was furious.
It took so much effort to get a full set of armor, only to be destroyed just like that.
"You're courting death!"
He wielded the Delimitation sword, once again splitting into hundreds of thousands of flying swords burning with black flames.
— — Parting Flame Sword Style!
With a single thought from Gu Qing Shan, all the flying swords disappeared without a trace.
The stardust face uttered a pained roar.
Gu Qing Shan swung his sword again.
Then hundreds of thousands of flying swords that exuded a faint mist of frost disappeared into the darkness.
— — Extinguishing Frost Sword Style!
The stardust face's voice stopped.
It was completely frozen.
Gu Qing Shan's thought moved — — -
An invisible and huge sword intent burst out of his body, passing through the endless darkness and exploding loudly on the giant face of stardust.
Crack! Crack!
The entire stardust face was smashed to pieces.
The small monsters around the giant face were immediately frightened, and they fled in all directions in a panic.
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised and asked: "Why can't you take a hit?"
He had originally prepared another sword move, but who knew that his opponent would be directly reduced to ashes.
The Delimitation sword suddenly spoke: 「 It isn't a living being, but an artifact, so it couldn't withstand my blade 」
Gu Qing Shan realized.
The Delimitation sword has the ability to destroy all things, capable of subduing all things, so no artifact could withstand its sharpness.
So the other party was struck by countless flying swords for a while, then struck by a wave of frost, and then finally struck by the Mind Sword to cut it to pieces.
"An artifact … and it just said that it was a subordinate of the Lord of All Things … the monsters in this void of space sure are strange"
While Gu Qing Shan was silently thinking, an entity made entirely out of a nebula appeared in the farthest reaches of space.
It's that guy!
That's right, I once ran into it when I participated in a suicide mission.
— — -there's no way I can win against it, so it's best to leave first.
A white mist surged around his body, and he disappeared from where he stood.
…
Inside the temple.
The Lord God and the 5 Pillar Gods were all here, Magic Dragon was standing in the middle, telling them about his discovery.
"Everyone, I have a Thaumaturgy called Affinity with Artifacts"
Magic Dragon — — - Leng Qianchen continued:
"While I was fighting against those monsters, I slowly noticed that something wasn't right"
"What's wrong?"
Gu Qing Shan descended from above, landed outside the temple, and quickly walked in.
"Thank you for saving my life, this is what I wanted to tell the Lord God and the Pillar Gods. I discovered that those monsters aren't actually living beings, but rather purely made of artifacts" Leng Qianchen said.
Everyone went silent.
Fei Yue asked: "Artifacts … which means, it's artifact spirits that are controlling the artifacts to fight against us?"
Leng Qianchen replied: "That's not the case, this is also strange, I discovered that those monsters don't have artifact spirits, in other words — — -"
"They don't have souls, they are only war machines"
Gu Qing Shan continued: "Which means, someone is controlling these monsters from behind the scenes"
"Indeed, that should be the case" Leng Qianchen agreed.
Everyone exchanged glances.
What kind of entity would be able to single-handedly control countless monsters to fight against the entire world of Huang Quan?
The skeleton girl's eyes flickered a bit, then said: "Leng Qianchen, you've done a great service in gathering intelligence, you may leave now"
"Understood"
Leng Qianchen bowed and left the temple.
Only the Lord God and the Pillar Gods remained.
It was now that the skeleton girl spoke up: "Something isn't right, I once personally went to the frontlines to fight against two nebula monsters, they weren't much weaker than I am — — - if they were also being controlled, then what kind of strength does the one behind them have?"
The Samsara Temple Master continued: "If they were truly that powerful, why didn't they just attack us all at once and destroy our Huang Quan?"
This was a question.
Everyone couldn't understand it, so they didn't say anything.
Fei Yue looked at Gu Qing Shan and asked: "Did you save all the dead people on the battlefield?"
"I was just about to report — — I ran into a nebula monster, knowing that I couldn't win against it, I ran back here" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Which camp was it?" the skeleton girl asked.
"Normal camp 371" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The skeleton girl stood up and spoke solemnly: "Very well, now that we know that those monsters are soulless artifacts, I'll go meet them again"
"The Samsara Temple Master will be in charge of the battlefield for now, the rest of you will follow her orders"
"Understood" the Pillar Gods received their orders.
The skeleton girl nodded and disappeared from the platform.
Seeing that everything was settled, Gu Qing Shan also stood up and prepared to leave.
"Where are you going?" Fei Yue asked.
"There's something urgent that I need to take care of, I'll come find you later" Gu Qing Shan replied.
— — regardless of what the giant corpse said, regardless of what I'm going to do next, I'll need the help of Fei Yue's Threads of Fate.
Her ability will allow her to see through all the fog and find the truth of fate.
Seeing how troubled he was, Fei Yue paused and said: "Very well, I'll wait for you"
Gu Qing Shan nodded and disappeared without a trace.
A few minutes later.
Deep within hell.
Gu Qing Shan activated the Senluo Sword Realm to isolate himself from everything else.
He took out the sleeping Chao Yin sword and held it tightly.
"Come … let me see, what do you want to tell me …"
Gu Qing Shan muttered in a low voice.
The black glow on the sword seemed to understand his words and quickly expanded, turning into a screen of light that slowly formed the scene of a world.
— — -the ignorant world.
The giant corpse was still pinned to the bronze pillar.
"Gu Qing Shan, after such a long time, you've finally reached that condition"
Come, return to the moment before the infinite worlds were destroyed, return to the Reality Gate — — - "
"You can release me from the bronze pillar!"
