The Tomb River.
Gu Qing Shan crouched by the riverbank with an expression of contemplation.
Lines of crimson text hovered in the void of space, flashing nonstop:
[Status: Restricted]
[The Heaven Court and the twin cities of space have been established, the human realm's Saint Selection competition has ended]
[As the God of Death, you cannot participate in the human realm's struggle for supremacy]
Gu Qing Shan released her inner sight and carefully scanned her surroundings.
A tomb several thousand miles away had been opened, three Saint Chosens were lying inside.
They had no signs of life, obviously already dead.
A mass of flowing black liquid circled around them a few times before manifesting into a black lizard.
The lizard spoke in human language: 「 As payment for letting me out, I'll leave your corpses intact 」
Saying so, it climbed up the stairs without looking back, left the tomb, dove into the Tomb River, and quickly disappeared without a trace.
Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan pondered briefly before disappearing.
He reappeared inside the tomb, crouched down, and patted the three Saint Chosens' bodies.
The three dead Saint Chosens immediately jumped up.
They stared at the middle-aged man in front of them.
— — -a power as deep as the ocean surrounded the middle-aged man, manifesting as an obscure and mysterious invisible presence behind him, causing anyone who sensed it to feel suffocated.
How powerful!
"Sir, was it you who saved me?" one of them asked gratefully.
"Thank you very much, sir — — when you released that monster, I thought I was already dead for sure" another person said in relief.
The third person bowed: "Thank you for saving our lives, may I ask for your name?"
Gu Qing Shan shrugged and replied: "I'm Rhode"
"Rhode?" the three of them spoke at once.
"Yes, you might not know this name — — - very well, I'm the God of Death" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The God of Death.
The expressions of relief on their faces froze.
They slowly looked down.
Only to see three people lying on the ground.
They were their corpses.
— — -they really were dead.
The Grim Reaper had come to receive their souls.
Gu Qing Shan coughed lightly: "To be honest, you're already dead, if your souls were to stay here and encounter a soul-eating monster, they would completely dissipate, so I'm sending you to Hell to temporarily take refuge."
"The reward is--"
He bent down and took a few strands of hair from each of them.
The next moment.
The scenery around them changed.
Gu Qing Shan and the three Holy Chosen Ones appeared in Hell.
Leng Qianchen looked at him in surprise and asked, "Who are these people?"
"A dead Saint's Chosen" Gu Qing Shan answered.
He patted the three men, who looked as if they had seen a ghost, and did not know what to say.
The person in front of them was too powerful. Whether or not he was the legendary Grim Reaper, they couldn't beat him.
Seeing their nervous faces, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but smile and said, "It's okay. Since he's dead, he's one of us. Please feel free to stay here. I still have something to do, so I'll return to the human world first."
With that, he disappeared from hell.
The three of them were completely confused.
Was this the legendary Death's Guide?
The Grim Reaper left just like that?
They couldn't help but look at Leng Qianchen.
Leng Qianchen didn't want to say anything else, but when he thought about how these three were Saint's Chosen Ones, he silently sighed and said: "Welcome to Hell"
…
Gu Qing Shan once again returned to the tomb.
He randomly picked one of the three and held that person's hair in his hand.
— — Ultimate Mystery of All Beings Equal!
His body slowly turned into that person's appearance.
A line of crimson text quickly appeared in the void of space:
[You've become a Saint's Chosen: Zhang Jiujiu]
[You've obtained all of his memories]
[As a Saint's Chosen of the human world, you've officially participated in the exploration of the human tomb]
[Attention: You're currently in the Samsara Clash for Supremacy]
[If you're willing to pay a certain amount of Merit, you can also learn some of Zhang Jiujiu's skills]
[Do you want to pay Merit?]
Gu Qing Shan shook his head.
There's no need for skills, I only need this identity.
He walked out of the tomb step by step.
The black lizard still hadn't gone far when it abruptly turned around and looked at him in surprise.
「 How is that possible, you're clearly dead 」 the black lizard spoke in a low voice.
Gu Qing Shan ignored it and silently looked for the right direction.
— — I once entered the human realm's Genesis tomb.
At the time, I and the old pixie found a map in the Precambrian civilization's tomb.
How should I get there …
Seeing how defenseless he was, the black lizard's eyes flashed with an ominous glint.
It leapt forward and turned into a wall of black ink in the air, trying to envelop Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan still didn't move.
While the black ink was still in the air, it suddenly trembled and fell to the ground, turning back into the black lizard.
「 You … 」
The black lizard spat out a single word in fear before its body exploded.
It was dead.
A sword exuding a faint yellow aura appeared from the void of space and let out a disdainful screech.
The Chao Yin sword.
Because the enemy had turned into liquid, the Chao Yin sword directly activated [Suppression of the Myriad Seas] and made the enemy's body explode.
This was the simplest way to kill an enemy.
Gu Qing Shan didn't care about this at all. He had already found the right direction, but he was still thinking of a countermeasure.
The previous Emperor Of Heaven almost never failed, and his calculations were flawless.
If he could even predict the revival of humanity's war Soul Artifact, why wouldn't he be able to predict what would happen next?
Basically, my people's movements are still within his grasp.
— — -but there's good news.
The previous Emperor Of Heaven is being held back by the giant corpse.
The Book of Reincarnation has been taken away by Shannu, so it can't return for now.
Then.
With God Lord Huang Quan's help, Xie Dao Ling should be able to hold on for now.
What I need to do now is to break through the previous Emperor Of Heaven's calculations.
Only by taking them by surprise can I catch them off guard.
… Among the infinite worlds, only the pixies can't understand the thoughts of others.
Then I'll just have to find a pixie!
But as soon as he thought of the pixie, Gu Qing Shan felt a bit of a headache.
After grasping [Divine Guidance], the first one he summoned was Shroud.
Originally, he wanted to summon someone from the Awaitings.
But now, he can only summon the pixie first.
After all, he had to rely on the old pixie's shameless Quipcraft to force his way into the human realm's Genesis tomb.
This was probably something that the Emperor Of Heaven didn't expect.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan silently activated [Divine Guidance].
The void of space shifted.
A familiar figure appeared again — — -
The old pixie.
It was wearing a dark blue nightgown full of stars, yawning: 「 Did you find another money-making project? 」
Gu Qing Shan replied: "That's right. This time, we'll probably need to rely on your strength in order to overcome this difficulty"
The old pixie took out a jar, took out a toothbrush to brush his teeth, shaved his beard, changed into a gaudy robe, and swung his short staff in high spirits: "Can I use my full strength this time?"
"Indeed, you don't need to be limited to a single ability. My summoning techniques are now even stronger than before, so you can go all out" Gu Qing Shan told him.
While they were talking, a commotion could be heard from afar.
A giant monster wearing leather armor was slowly approaching them from afar along the Tomb River.
「 The scent … of a living person … 」
The giant monster muttered, then looked towards Gu Qing Shan and the old pixie.
The old pixie shrugged and put the short staff in his hand away: 「 I'll leave the fighting to you, I'm afraid of dirtying my nightgown 」
"That won't do, from now on, you'll be responsible for fighting" Gu Qing Shan said.
「 Ah? But I'm not an expert at fighting 」 the old pixie said in surprise.
"It's fine, I've already made up my mind. From now on, I won't be fighting by myself to prevent anything from sensing my presence" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The old pixie was surprised: 「 Aren't you being a bit too cautious? But us pixies aren't very good at fighting to the death against humans 」
It looked at the giant monster that was over 10 meters tall and spoke with a troubled expression: 「 I'm only the size of a thumb, I really can't fight against it — — -
Without waiting for it to finish, Gu Qing Shan reached out a finger and lightly touched it.
Void Sect. Lines of crimson text were rapidly scrolling:
[You've activated War Assistance Mode]
[You're currently activating War Blessing]
[You've activated the following Human War Blessing:]
[Strength, Stone Skin, Intelligence Amplification, Precision, Armor Penetration, Force Reduction, Repel, Toughness, Spirit Focus, Elementary Luck, Life Reinforcement, Iron Body, Void Protection, Positive Elemental Defense, Mutated Elemental Absorption, Intuition, Secret Whisper, Curse Dispel, Mark Dispel, Magic Breaker, Giant Slayer, Beast Bane, Spirit World Sense, Trap Detection, Summon Interrupt, Invulnerable Body, Demon Devouring Body, Soul Sight … 」
Numerous lines of text appeared, then quickly disappeared into the void of space.
The old fairy froze in place for a moment.
Its pink robe with various cartoon patterns inlaid on it was fluttering without any wind.
An immeasurably powerful presence emanated from its body.
Sensing it, the old pixie slowly turned to look at Gu Qing Shan:
"I … have nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine types of blessings …"
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Are you confident now?"
The old pixie turned to look at the monster in front of him.
「 I can tear it apart 」
