Within the flowing water of the lotus.
On top of the pavilion.
Gu Qing Shan took a sip of tea and asked: "Why are there so many Avatar Worlds on this path?"
The talisman replied: "Look at me carefully"
Gu Qing Shan focused her gaze on it, only to see the light around the talisman scatter to reveal its body.
A deep cut ran through the talisman, almost cutting it in half.
"Were you heavily injured?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Let's not talk about what happened in the past — — in truth, our job is to guard this path and not allow any outsiders to enter" the talisman replied.
Gu Qing Shan recalled the Dragon God and asked:
"I still have someone with me, how is he now?"
"He's also very powerful, perhaps even more powerful than that demonic blade in your hand. If I use my full strength, I can only keep him trapped for a while longer" the talisman replied.
"If that's the case, let him go first, I'll chase after him" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Let him go now? Have you thought about it? "the talisman asked.
"I have" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Very well — — -"
Before the talisman finished its words, countless rays of light appeared in the sky, quickly descending towards a certain part of the city.
The Dragon God was guided by the rays of light and slowly flew towards the sky.
As it flew, it suddenly stopped in mid-air and looked around the city.
"Can it see me?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"It can't, I'm being obscured by countless Laws here, so it can only see blurry" the talisman replied.
"But when it's in the city, it can see the rays of light — — - there wasn't any rays of light just now, so it must know that I haven't ascended yet" Gu Qing Shan pondered.
"That's true" the talisman agreed.
The Dragon God was circling around the rays of light, but didn't follow the rays of light to leave this world.
"Strange, I already let him go, why isn't he leaving yet?" Fu Ming said curiously.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a moment and laughed. "It knows that I haven't left, so it doesn't want to catch up with the former Emperor Of Heaven alone. It is afraid that it will be at a disadvantage if it fights alone."
"So that's how it is. Then all the more reason to drive him away." The talisman came to a sudden realization.
"Can you do it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I can't do anything else, but driving it away shouldn't be a problem," said the Talisman Puppet.
Rays of light descended from the sky and enveloped the Dragon God, opening the void and throwing him out.
Gu Qing Shan stood up and cupped her fists towards the talisman: "Thank you for the tea, I have to go now."
"It was waiting for you, but you wanted to chase after it?" the Talisman Puppet asked.
"With its personality, even if it went out, it wouldn't immediately chase after me — — - it would most likely wait for me to appear before acting together" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Then what I did just now was unnecessary?"
"That's not it, if I ascended at the same time as him, he might try to pull some tricks and accidentally fall behind me so that I can go out first — — - now that you've thrown him out, he won't have the chance to do so"
"… You really think too much" the talisman Puppet sighed.
Gu Qing Shan smiled.
The former Emperor Of Heaven and I know each other, while the Dragon God and the Demon Emperor don't.
If I can find a chance to work together with the Emperor Of Heaven to kill either the Dragon God or the Demon Emperor, that would be a turning point in the war.
At that time, the former Emperor Of Heaven and the Four Saints of Samsara would have no issues dealing with a single Technique.
The Samsara Calamity would be resolved.
The only thing I need to pay attention to is that demon body …
Very well, I'll just take it one step at a time.
After making up her mind, Gu Qing Shan said: "Please summon that Blade back, I'll face a test together with it so that it won't overthink things, then we'll leave"
"Very well"
The talisman gave off a surge of power, bringing Gu Qing Shan away from the pavilion and back to the street.
Gu Qing Shan looked down, only to see that the entire street was still being filled with runes, turning into various weapons and flying towards the horizon.
— — – the Demon Emperor was still being beaten.
The talisman gave off a glow and lightly touched the ground.
The densely packed runes instantly disappeared.
The weapons that filled the sky also disappeared.
A few moments later.
The Demon Emperor's Blade descended from the sky and returned to Gu Qing Shan's hand.
Gu Qing Shan held the Blade and whispered: "Are you alright?"
The Demon Emperor's will gritted his teeth: "If not for the sake of following the rules and allowing us to continue forward, I would have already dismantled these trash weapons!"
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
According to his current state, he had only just reached the level of being able to devour stars, so he was still too young.
However, a single attack at his peak was enough to render one of the Frost Giant's arms useless, as well as destroy an Apocalypse.
— — -if he was allowed to grow, the consequences would be terrifying.
"Just now, the Dragon God ascended and left" Gu Qing Shan said.
"I think I also sensed it, seems like we need to hurry up" the Demon Emperor's will was indeed distracted and replied.
One person and one Blade looked at the talisman in front of them.
"Can we go now?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The talisman cleared his throat and spoke: "Congratulations on passing this test, after passing the next one, you can ascend and leave!"
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Fight!"
The talisman replied.
The ground began to tremble.
Runes flew from all over the city, manifesting into human figures and cultivators.
Gu Qing Shan wielded the Blade and assumed a defensive stance.
"How are you? Can you still fight? "he whispered to the Blade.
"I can't … you go, I'm going to rest for a bit" the Demon Emperor's will was breathing heavily.
— — as if knowing what they were discussing, the talisman abruptly spoke: "You must use that tested Blade of yours to defeat all your enemies before you can ascend and leave"
Gu Qing Shan and the Blade both stopped.
"Did you hear that? You will face the test together with me "Gu Qing Shan whispered.
"…" the Demon Emperor's will didn't say anything.
The talisman's voice resounded from afar: "If you cannot pass the test, you will be transported away from this path and returned to the Samsara — — -"
Gu Qing Shan held the Blade tightly and encouraged it: "You've already been beaten up by the entire street, this will definitely be no problem, do your best"
The cultivators raised their weapons and charged towards Gu Qing Shan.
— — there was no turning back!
The Demon Blade couldn't do anything and gritted his teeth: "Let's go"
"That's right!" Gu Qing Shan cheerfully replied.
He raised the Blade and slashed forward — — -
The Demon Blade erupted with thousands of blade images, slicing everything around it into black cracks in the void of space.
In the blink of an eye, all the enemies in front of Gu Qing Shan were annihilated.
"That's impressive!" Gu Qing Shan exclaimed in shock.
He raised his long blade and charged towards the remaining cultivators.
Layers upon layers of Blade images, the power of which was almost unstoppable, the cultivators couldn't even stop it and were quickly killed.
The talisman's voice finally resounded:
[Completed]
[Ascend — — -]
Thousands of rays of light descended from above, gathered around Gu Qing Shan's body, and carried him upwards.
"We did it!" Gu Qing Shan patted the Demon Blade.
"At least we didn't fall too far behind Dragon God — — I'm going to rest for a bit, call me when I catch up to Dragon God" Demon Emperor's tired voice resounded.
"Go rest, I'll call you when I meet Dragon God" Gu Qing Shan agreed.
The rays of light appeared from behind him and lightly tapped the void of space.
The void of space was broken.
In just a few moments, the scenery around them faded away.
Gu Qing Shan found herself standing on the stone path, the fog around her had just faded away.
Dragon God was standing not too far away, happily turning around:
"Demon Emperor, you're finally here"
Gu Qing Shan appeared surprised and hurriedly asked: "Didn't we agree that whoever came out first would go after the previous Emperor Of Heaven? Why are you still here? "
Embarrassment flashed across the Dragon God's face as he said, "I just came out too."
"Then let's hurry" Gu Qing Shan nonchalantly said.
"Alright"
The two of them flew forward together.
While flying, Gu Qing Shan sent her voice: "Did you see that? He came out first, but didn't go after Emperor Of Heaven "
Demon Emperor's Blade scoffed, then angrily said: "And I was still thinking of coming out as soon as possible, but he was still scheming, do you think I don't know why he did that?"
"That's right, Dragon God is a sly bastard" Gu Qing Shan followed up.
While they were talking, a figure appeared not too far away from them.
The previous Emperor Of Heaven!
The Dragon God's spirit shook and he shouted, "Stop right there!"
— — Perhaps because of what happened just now, its figure flashed and flashed, rushing forward to block the former Celestial Emperor's path.
Gu Qing Shan followed closely behind, quickly blocking the previous Emperor Of Heaven's path of retreat.
"Ah, it's you"
The previous Emperor Of Heaven clasped his hands behind his back and casually said.
"Of course it's us — — I never knew that the Emperor Of Heaven of the Samsara would voluntarily become an insect" Dragon God mocked.
The previous Emperor Of Heaven replied: "If you were like me, drifting in the void for countless years without even knowing who you are or what you should do, one day, you would also be willing to become an insect — — - even if it's only for revenge"
His body spread out and turned into a dense swarm of insects.
The battle began!
