Tao Wu opened its giant eyes wide and stared straight at Gu Qing Shan.
「 You want to try? 」 it asked.
「 Indeed, this humble one knows too little, there are many times when I can't make a decision, and there's nothing I can do in battle, so please teach me that secret 」 Gu Qing Shan said.
Tao Wu sighed: 「 This secret can only be taught to the Beast King clan, you're clearly a person of Huang Quan, and you carry the presence of the Wraith realm, you don't seem to fit the criteria 」
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a moment.
— — -this Tao Wu first said it was dangerous, then said that it can only be taught to the Beast King clan.
If it wanted to reject me, why didn't it just say that it can only be taught to the Beast King clan?
Or maybe it's only acting on the surface, but actually has other plans?
Gu Qing Shan silently thought about it, then slowly smiled and said: "Then forget it, I won't consider any secrets anymore, senior, please chat with me for a bit longer"
「 Chat about what? 」 Tao Wu asked.
「 About your past Merits — — I'm very curious about your great achievements 」 Gu Qing Shan said.
Tao Wu was overjoyed and said: 「 Very well, I'll tell you how many juniors of the Beast King clan I've saved over the years 」
「 This humble one is all ears 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 If we're talking about Merits, then I'm the Divine Beast with the most Merits in the world, back then — — - 」 Tao Wu began to ramble on.
After listening for a bit, Gu Qing Shan noticed that it was talking about the same situation as today, except the target was the Beast Kings.
There's really nothing to listen to here.
With a single thought, Gu Qing Shan changed his Title to [Void War God].
Title Skill — — - Lord of Mystery, activate!
In an instant, everything around him changed.
Chi! Chi! It was no longer Chi! Instead, it was countless mysterious runes that surrounded a wisp of spiritual aura.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and muttered in his mind: "Come!"
The dense mysterious runes broke away from the spiritual aura and swarmed towards him.
They surrounded him, telling him about this Tao Wu's composition in a silent, secretive way.
A few moments later.
Gu Qing Shan gradually understood.
That aura was indeed a wisp of the divine beast Suanni's thought … But this wasn't enough.
What is the secret that Zhuge Li is hiding?
He looked at the natural runes that had manifested mysteriously in the void and conveyed his doubts to them.
The mysterious runes paused for a moment, then as if they had come to life, they stacked up and formed a new shape in the air.
Countless pieces of information floated in the void of space before being transmitted to Gu Qing Shan by the mystical runes.
"So … that's how it is …"
Gu Qing Shan said softly.
The Mysteries told him that only the dragons among the ten thousand beasts were qualified to make Bi 'an reveal that secret.
However, even if a member of the Dragon Tribe managed to meet Tao Wu, he would have to strictly follow the requirements and complete a series of difficult missions in order to prove his outstanding talent, innocence, and determination.
After completing a series of quests, the dragon would finally learn the truth of the secret.
But it didn't matter now.
Due to the Void War God, the Mysteries were directly telling that secret to Gu Qing Shan.
Lines of crimson text quickly appeared in the void of space:
[You've heard of the Great Desolate's secret]
[This secret must not be told to anyone else, otherwise, it would immediately invite disaster, the best outcome would be to reincarnate]
The two lines of text flickered nonstop, then quickly grew larger until they were completely black in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Seeing these two lines of text, Gu Qing Shan felt a sense of nervousness — — -
I'm not the one who's nervous, but the highest-ranking Beyonder.
"A reminder of this level … what are you afraid of?"
Gu Qing Shan asked softly.
The highest-ranking Beyonder didn't answer.
Gu Qing Shan didn't wait any longer and looked up at Bi 'an.
Bi 'an was still speaking: 「 The Beast King that I saved at the time was so grateful to me that it wanted to repay me, so I — — 」
Gu Qing Shan stopped infusing power.
Bi 'an's voice instantly disappeared, the light around its body dimmed, then shrank into a streak of light that flew back into the pile of rubble.
All supernatural phenomena disappeared.
The scenery around them returned to normal.
Shan Hai Qi Xia and the rest of the human cultivators stood behind Gu Qing Shan.
The Beast Kings faced him.
He lowered his head, pondered for a bit, then suddenly smiled: "I just recalled something"
"What is it?" Shan Hai Qi Xia asked.
Gu Qing Shan turned to look at her and said: "In the past, not long after I entered the cultivation world, I ran into a large-scale spirit beast rebellion. Who would've thought that after such a long time, I would run into the beast race's surrender today"
"How about this, from now on, for half a day, all of you will stay out of each other's way until I return" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Sir, what is it?" the Beast King leader hurriedly asked.
"There are still some secrets in your world that I need to investigate" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Saying so, his body turned into a cold flash of light that shot into the sky, disappearing into the clouds.
Both humans and beasts stared at him as he left.
— — the sky. That was where the great tomb used to be.
Everyone silently thought that.
…
The Tomb River had disappeared.
The place where the countless Apocalypses and Samsara tombs were once sealed was now nothing but a wasteland, filled with holes.
— — the many tombs and islands were no longer here, they had all disappeared together with the Tomb River.
They had all gone to the other side of the human realm.
Gu Qing Shan landed in the middle of these ruins and quickly looked around.
Following the hints of the Mysteries, he quickly found that place — — -
Within a certain hole, a certain vertical patch of dirt.
Gu Qing Shan's figure flew forward, lightly landed, and hovered in front of the dirt.
"This is the place, the secret left only for the True Dragon …"
He reached his hand out and pressed it against the dirt.
The dirt sank inward, then was stopped by something solid.
Gu Qing Shan pushed the dirt aside, only to see a wall inside.
A ray of sword light emerged from his hand and directly blasted the wall apart.
Red, yellow, indigo, blue, green, and violet runes of six different colors emerged from the hole behind the wall, completely surrounding Gu Qing Shan.
They were silently telling something to Gu Qing Shan.
A line of crimson text quickly appeared:
[Attention, these unique Mystery runes will only let you in, once you've seen the secret inside, everything here will be destroyed by them]
Surrounded by the Mystery runes, Gu Qing Shan quickly flew into the hole.
Only to find an empty palace inside, as if there was nothing inside the darkness.
— — -the black fog had obscured everything, making it impossible for anyone to sense anything inside the palace.
Gu Qing Shan landed inside the black fog.
A few moments later, the Mystery runes all flew out to guard the hole, completely sealing it off.
And then — —
The palace lit up.
Almost as soon as the light appeared, Gu Qing Shan noticed the lone pedestal.
There was nothing on the pedestal.
It stood at the very end of the palace, behind it was a large mural with colorful patterns that seemed to be depicting a certain scene from the Age of Legends.
Gu Qing Shan turned to look at the mural.
Only to see that it was a wheel divided into six parts, each representing a Heaven Immortal, an Asura, a human, a Wraith, a Dead, and a Beast.
The various living beings all resided in their own realms, all worshipping the center of the wheel with sincerity.
At the very center of the wheel, there were only a few strokes on the mural.
— — as if someone was about to draw something, but didn't know where to start, or as if the painter suddenly changed his mind and didn't want to draw it.
As Gu Qing Shan looked at those colorful strokes, she felt a sense of familiarity.
After staring for a bit, she suddenly spoke in Dracotongue:
"Six Saints return to one, [Reincarnation] complete — — -"
As soon as she said that, the entire palace began to tremble.
The lone pedestal was originally empty, but as soon as Gu Qing Shan spoke in Dracotongue, it exploded.
A blurred figure flew out from the pedestal and was caught by Gu Qing Shan.
When she opened her hand, it was a small piece of cold metal.
A line of crimson text appeared:
[You've obtained humanity's memory storage device]
Gu Qing Shan silently felt surprised.
This secret was hidden so deeply, what exactly could it be?
A few moments later, a voice resounded from the void of space:
[This matter that we've discovered must be dismantled and concealed with endless mysteries in order to allow a single person to safely read it]
[The dragons have the strongest resistance against hex, as well as the most cautious, so this important task will be given to the dragons]
[Take this storage device]
[If you can awaken the Saint of humanity, give this to it]
[If you can do that, the Saint of humanity will recall something that happened countless years ago, it will tell you the second half of this secret]
[If you can't do it, then run — — - run as far as you can!]
Boom!
Countless runes came from all directions, directly pushing Gu Qing Shan out of the palace.
A few moments later.
The runes of all six colors fused into the palace.
They turned into a raging inferno and were completely annihilated along with the entire hall.
Gu Qing Shan held the metal cube in her hand and fell into thought.
"Six Saints return to one? Return to one … "
He murmured softly.
