With a resounding boom, the Mobile Mech leapt high into the air and crashed heavily into the ground.
Dozens of flashes of light flashed across the cold steel surface.
The roar of the God of War.
The aura of the Goddess of Magic.
The secret spell of the Goddess of Metal.
The blessing of the God of Massacre.
…
And most importantly — — -
The blessing of the Earth God!
Boom — —
The black swarm of insects was instantly blasted apart. The insects were turned into broken shells by the intense shockwave and scattered far away.
Countless Mobile Mechs swarmed towards the swarm.
Behind the Mobile Mechs, the long line of human allied troops was filled with countless Holy Apostles.
The dead had also awakened and fearlessly charged towards the swarm of insects under the leadership of the Underworld King.
The Gods could not personally act, but they secretly unleashed their full divine power to help every living being resist the swarm of insects.
The battle had become a one-sided slaughter from the very beginning.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher turned into human form and stood at the very back of the swarm of insects with a grim expression.
According to the rules of the world, he could not personally participate in the battle.
Gu Qing Shan descended from the sky and stood next to him, looking down at the battlefield.
— — he and the Eternal Thought Snatcher were both unable to attack each other, so they could only wait for a victor to be decided among the believers.
This meant that the victor had already been decided.
"You're going to lose" Gu Qing Shan said.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher was unusually calm and muttered to himself: 「 I've only just realized that I never had the chance to use my full strength 」
"Oh?" Gu Qing Shan was intrigued.
"Yes … in truth, competing for faith was a piece of cake for me. After all, I could use my psychic limbs to seize any living being that chanted my name, as well as have the swarm of insects take over the bodies of living beings, emptying the faith of the entire world"
The Eternal Thought Snatcher recalled: 「 In the beginning, my strength was suppressed by the Sacrificial Dance, so I couldn't unleash the True Name Skill to sweep through this world 」
"And then — —" Gu Qing Shan said.
"And then when I fought against you, I managed to escape from the Sacrificial Dance — — but I still needed some time to recover my full strength" the Eternal Thought Snatcher said.
"That's right, I didn't expect you to also know the Sacrificial Dance, this is beyond my expectations" Gu Qing Shan said.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher continued, "By the time I had regained my strength and was searching for the secret, you had snatched it away from me and even used the rules of the world, forcing us to compete for followers."
"I can only do this, otherwise I will lose" Gu Qing Shan said.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher appeared thoughtful and continued, "— — While I was developing the Insectoid Swarm, my true name began to spread in the mortal realm. Just as I was about to achieve victory, you triggered a parallel world erosion and directly destroyed everything."
The Eternal Thought Snatcher shook his head. "I've lost this time."
"You don't seem to be worried about your life" Gu Qing Shan commented.
The two of them looked at the battlefield together.
The swarm of insects was constantly being annihilated by the allied army of Gods and living beings, and it seemed that they were about to be defeated.
"So you're here to watch me die?" the Eternal Thought Snatcher asked.
"No, I don't believe that someone like you would actually die here" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"For me, death is the same as shedding a layer of skin, my strength will greatly decrease and I will need time to recover — — but time is the ruler of mortals, it cannot measure the length of my life, as my true name indicates" the Eternal Thought Snatcher replied.
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
At this point, the swarm of insects on the battlefield had almost been completely wiped out, and the allied army of Gods and humans had begun their final sweep.
Quite a few people were already cheering in victory.
Seeing this, the Eternal Thought Snatcher calmly said: "I never thought that I would lose here"
He closed his eyes and silently waited for death to come.
A few moments later.
A faint insect cry resounded in his ears.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher was surprised and opened his eyes to look.
Only to see that the humans on the battlefield had already dispersed.
The Gods had all disappeared.
Then he looked at Gu Qing Shan — — -
He had just put away a Card in one hand while his other hand held the final beetle.
As long as this beetle did not die, the battle between the Gods would not be over.
"Do you want to savor the taste of defeating me a little longer?" the Eternal Thought Snatcher scoffed.
"No, I don't think there's anything to be happy about in defeating you, because — —"
As Gu Qing Shan spoke, she lightly flicked her finger.
The final beetle flew towards the Eternal Thought Snatcher.
"I'm not as strong as you, and I didn't even use my full strength to defeat you" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher caught the beetle and could not understand what she meant after a long while, so he asked in surprise: "What are you trying to say?"
"The competition for the Samsara is becoming more and more intense, and you not only want to fight for the Samsara, but you also want to pursue the secrets of the Void. I'm guessing that you don't want to die once" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Dying once would cause me to lose some of my strength, so I can only retreat for now" the Eternal Thought Snatcher replied.
"That's why I have a deal to discuss with you" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What kind of deal?"
"I can make the entire war end in a draw, and you only need to give me some information in exchange for this outcome"
The Eternal Thought Snatcher was a little surprised and asked: "What do you want to know? You should know that there are many secrets that a Living Beings Sequence like you cannot handle "
"The Flame Spirit Pendant. It's always moving around, so I'm not sure where it is" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher understood and shook his head: "I can't tell you that secret because it's not something you can handle — — you can ask me about something else"
"The origin of the Bronze Master?"
"You can't handle it"
"The secret that you're pursuing?"
"You can't handle it"
"Fine, what happens when the Samsara evolves to the end?"
"You can't handle it"
"…"
Gu Qing Shan took a few moments to calm down.
"Fine, I might as well ask about my own secrets instead of asking about your secrets" he muttered.
"Hm? What do you mean? "the Eternal Thought Snatcher asked.
Gu Qing Shan looked at him and said: "I won't ask about your secrets now, but I want you to do something for me"
"What is it?" the Eternal Thought Snatcher asked.
"Let me confirm something first. Have you fully recovered your powers?"
"Yes, but I'm restricted by the Laws of this world and can't fight against you"
"Very well …"
— — the Eternal Thought Snatcher's full power could be considered quite powerful.
Gu Qing Shan showed a determined expression and said: "I want you to follow me for a while and protect me. You can't let me die"
The Eternal Thought Snatcher looked at him and said: "If you want to fight the Bronze Master to the death, I won't go"
"Of course not, I just want to guess a few secrets — — if I'm right, something might happen, and you'll have to protect me" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher was stunned.
"… Is that even possible?" he muttered.
"You can tell me now whether you agree or not" Gu Qing Shan said.
"As long as you don't guess any of my questions, I can agree, but I need the strictest of contracts to ensure that we're even after this and that we'll never mention the outcome of the World of Gods again" the Eternal Thought Snatcher said.
"No problem" Gu Qing Shan replied.
A line of crimson text quickly appeared:
[Attention, your actions have reached a critical point. The highest echelon will personally compile a contract to ensure that neither you nor it will be able to break away from this agreement]
[By the way, the Eternal Thought Snatcher is definitely the most powerful bodyguard, it will be of great help when you guess the secrets]
The void of space shifted.
A piece of white paper appeared in front of the two of them.
The contents of the contract quickly appeared.
The Eternal Thought Snatcher stared deeply at Gu Qing Shan and said: 「 This is a Chaos contract that no one can break — — so you're the Chaos Envoy 」
"Come, sign it" Gu Qing Shan said.
The two of them signed their names.
The contract instantly disappeared in a golden waterfall.
Gu Qing Shan spoke: "I believe that this Divine War will be concluded as a draw, I wonder if my opponent agrees"
"Agreed, a draw"
The Eternal Thought Snatcher appeared relaxed as it said so.
An invisible ripple spread from the two of them before slowly disappearing into nothingness.
— — this Divine War ended in a draw. The Eternal Thought Snatcher did not need to die, nor did he need to lose his strength.
Next, he only needed to listen to his opponent guess the secrets.
Gu Qing Shan rubbed her palms together: "Alright, I'm going to begin"
"What are you going to guess?" The Eternal Thought Snatcher seemed to be enjoying a good show.
"I'm going to guess the situation I'm in" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"What's there to guess? How boring" the Eternal Thought Snatcher was disappointed.
Gu Qing Shan ignored it and silently recalled her conversation with the Underwater Book — — -
"How could there be such a swordsmanship?"
"Existence is reasonable"
"What if it's not reasonable?"
"…"
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and said softly: "Something that is completely unreasonable must have its own reasons for being unreasonable"
"For example — —"
"Miracles"
"Miracles are the most unreasonable and unbelievable things"
"I'm guessing that I have the power to create miracles!"
Gu Qing Shan closed her eyes as her mind raced.
At this point, she had already decided to take a gamble. She had to figure out some things no matter what.
These things were much more important than defeating the Eternal Thought Snatcher!
The Eternal Thought Snatcher's expression changed when he heard the word 'miracles'.
Gu Qing Shan continued: "Since I've been tainted with the power of miracles … it means that the Flame Spirit Pendant has changed its method after failing to kill me several times."
"It's using me to do certain things."
"For example, to kill an unknown insect from beyond the Void that poses a threat. After all, this insect is a variable, and even the World Ruler knows how terrifying the insect's potential is."
"Yes, it wants to use me to kill the Eternal Thought Snatcher."
"But why would I, Gu Qing Shan, be willing to be controlled by the Flame Spirit Pendant — — or its master?"
"My strength is completely inferior to the Eternal Thought Snatcher's, and I didn't give it my all, but the result is that I've defeated the Eternal Thought Snatcher — —"
"This doesn't make sense unless there's a miracle."
"What's helping me? Is it a forbidden swordsmanship?"
"The Bronze Master was the one who searched for this swordsmanship, so … this miracle was originally prepared for the Bronze Master, but it somehow fell into my hands."
"Then my situation — —"
"Just like the Water God's Deck of Gods, I — — have obtained some sort of destiny or mission."
"If that's the case …"
"Have I become a card in the hands of some entity?"
The entire world fell silent as soon as she finished speaking.
A line of crimson text quickly appeared:
[Warning!]
[You've seen through the hidden dangers of your body]
[You've discovered this secret]
[The restrictions of the highest Sequence have been lifted, an extended explanation can be made:]
[You've become a Miracle Card]
[You're the holder of the Miracle Card: Sacred Pillar of Earth and Water!]
[Serious warning!]
[The secret you've discovered is bringing you unprecedented danger]
[The critical point has passed, prepare to survive!]
