The heavy sound of thunder faded away from the clouds.
In the rain, a figure sat up from the pit of corpses.
He looked down at the sword in his hand.
This was a sword that belonged to those who died in battle, the hilt of the sword was engraved with two small words: [Wind Seeker]
Wind Seeker was a common name for the Scout Sword.
This sword was short and sharp, mostly used for sudden attacks, quite decent compared to standard weapons.
Gu Qing Shan put the sword away, stood up from the pile of corpses, and allowed the rain to wash away the filth on his body.
— — -at this point, even if I awaken with the help of the sword, my true strength wouldn't appear on my body again.
Once that strength is revealed, it would most likely draw the attention of evil spirits.
That's why I only have my understanding, skills, and Path, but no actual strength.
The same goes for my other self on the other side of time.
While thinking that, he walked towards the military camp.
— — then abruptly stopped.
Boom!!!
The lightning in the sky abruptly illuminated the ground, as well as the other figure in the rain.
The Squad Leader.
He was standing not too far away from Gu Qing Shan, silently staring at Gu Qing Shan.
"Who exactly are you?" the Squad Leader's hoarse voice resounded.
"— — -not a living person anyway" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He stepped forward again, walking towards the other party.
"I can smell the scent of death on your body … but it's obvious that you're not one of us" the Squad Leader said.
"I'm a dead person" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Why would a dead person appear in the world of the living, what do you want?" the Squad Leader doubtfully asked.
"I came from the Frozen Hell, I want to take over this world and plunge it into eternal Apocalypse — — -"
Gu Qing Shan held the Scout Sword horizontally, her footsteps becoming hurried.
"Wait!" the Squad Leader raised his Blade and shouted.
"Everything will be destroyed!" Gu Qing Shan laughed.
"Wait a minute — —"
A cold gleam abruptly erupted in the night sky. Another cold gleam couldn't help but hurriedly receive it.
The Blade and the Blade clashed.
Everything returned to silence.
The Squad Leader's Blade was knocked away, a short sword stabbed through his chest.
— — -the sword was in Gu Qing Shan's hand.
"All living people have to die." Gu Qing Shan smiled evilly.
The Squad Leader's expression wasn't exactly cold, there was even a hint of confusion as he spoke in a low voice: "You're mistaken, I'm not — —"
Gu Qing Shan turned a deaf ear to him. She gripped her sword with both hands and slashed the Squad Leader's stomach open.
The squad leader's voice was cut off.
He fell backwards into the muddy rain, black blood gradually flowing out of his body.
The battle was over.
Gu Qing Shan looked down at the corpse and said calmly,
"I know you're not a living person."
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared in the air.
"You have completed an entropy solution."
"You've killed a demon: Skin-flaying Blood Demon."
"The power obtained from this entropy solution will transcend the limits of space-time and return to you in the Chaos."
Gu Qing Shan said helplessly, "Why can't I use it?"
[This is the best choice] the UI replied.
"What's the best choice?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[All apocalyptic monsters that you've erased will return to the Chaos, giving the true power of the Apocalypse that they originally relied on to the other you — — after all, the other you represents the will of Chaos]
"The true power of the Apocalypse … in other words, it's very powerful?"
"Correct"
"Alright, then give it to the other me" Gu Qing Shan agreed.
The War God UI emphasized again: [Attention, we must strictly follow the Law of Causality to avoid being discovered by the evil fiends]
"Got it"
Gu Qing Shan casually swung her sword, letting the rain wash away the blood on it before heading back to the camp.
After taking two steps, she turned back and looked at the Squad Leader's corpse.
"The location of his death isn't right …"
Gu Qing Shan pondered for a few moments, then dragged the corpse towards the direction she remembered.
In the other side of time, this guy should've died in front of the pit of corpses.
Since the rain would cover everything up, as long as she died there, there shouldn't be any issues.
He dragged the Squad Leader's corpse to the location she remembered, thought for a bit, then cut open his stomach, took out the monster, and tossed it to one side.
"Did you see it? It's a monster "Gu Qing Shan said without turning around.
From the darkness, another trembling voice resounded:
"I saw it, sir, I saw it! It really is a monster! "
Gu Qing Shan searched her body — — -
Sure enough, she found a badge.
This was most likely the identity that the War God UI prepared for her.
No one knew where it got this thing from.
Gu Qing Shan tossed the badge over and spoke: "I am Gu Qing Shan, vanguard, soldier of the Vanguard Cavalry"
A few moments later.
A flash of light appeared in the darkness.
— — -the badge was naturally real.
The soldier sighed in relief, tiredly said: "Brother, thank you for killing this monster, I owe you my life"
"Don't talk about my life for now, I'm wounded all over, I need to return to the camp to rest" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Very well, come with me" the soldier said.
The two of them entered the camp one after the other.
…
A fire was lit.
The cold, damp barracks slowly warmed up.
A light green pill gave off a faint fragrance, being carefully observed by Gu Qing Shan.
The soldier called Zhao Lu covered his face, sitting on one side and crying.
— — -he just took out his secret stash of spirit stones to activate the camp's concealment formation.
Gu Qing Shan asked without looking up: "Why are you crying?"
Zhao Lu answered: "We've really used up all our spirit stones this time, when the next time the formation fails, we'll both be killed by the demon"
"That won't happen, I'll take you away" Gu Qing Shan said.
Zhao Lu's eyes suddenly lit up, whispering: "Sir, your wounds — –"
"It's fine, just come with me, I'll guarantee your survival" Gu Qing Shan said.
Zhao Lu was overjoyed, about to say something, but was stopped by Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the void of space.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared:
[Warning!]
[An evil demon is currently passing through this exact moment]
[For the next 10 seconds, you must maintain both sides of time at the same time]
Gu Qing Shan's heart sank.
The evil demon has already begun to search for me — — -
What was I doing at this exact moment in time?
Ah right …
Gu Qing Shan's mind quickly moved, then suddenly said:
"Zhao Lu, go rest first, I need to quickly heal myself — — – there's still a small wound that hasn't healed yet"
"Alright! I won't bother you anymore "Zhao Lu hurriedly said.
He poured a bowl of hot soup for Gu Qing Shan, then left the room, carefully closing the door behind him.
Gu Qing Shan walked to the weapon rack in the corner, looking at the weapons on it.
A rusty spear, a broken scimitar, and a dusty military bow.
That's right, during normal times, I'm trying to use [War God Skills].
He pretended to pick up the scimitar, carefully examining it.
Suddenly, two lines of red text appeared:
[The evil demon has arrived]
[The UI will reveal its hiding location, so that you can deal with it]
Without a sound, a 2-meter-tall black shadow manifested behind Gu Qing Shan.
The black shadow silently looked down at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan didn't seem to notice and continued looking at the scimitar in his hand.
He put down the scimitar, looked at the spear, then picked up the short bow.
This bow seems to have caught his interest — — -
Lines of glowing text also appeared on the War God UI:
[Attention]
[All of your skills have been awakened]
[All of your archery skills have been returned, ready to be used at any time]
Gu Qing Shan stood still for a bit, then suddenly raised the military bow, nocked an arrow, and shot.
Thud!
The arrow pierced deeply into the wooden beam of the room.
Gu Qing Shan's hand didn't stop, the arrow flew out like a shower of sparks.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
After shooting all 12 arrows at once, Gu Qing Shan's hand that held the bow was still as steady as a rock, not moving at all.
— — -the same scene appeared on both sides of the coin of time.
The black shadow finally stopped hesitating and lightly leapt up from behind Gu Qing Shan, disappearing into the void of space.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared:
[The evil demon has left]
Gu Qing Shan continued looking at the short bow and silently asked: "Left so quickly?"
[Its destination is the Age of Old, to see if there were any abnormalities during that period of time, hoping to find your hiding place] the War God UI replied.
"Then it's going to be disappointed" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He put both the short bow and the scout sword away, sat down cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
— — -yes, cultivate again.
This is the only way to explain how I became stronger.
An uneventful night passed.
Dawn.
Gu Qing Shan had reached qi training stage 2.
After eating some porridge and killing a low-ranked demon beast, it was time for her first return.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[The user Gu Qing Shan has stayed in the other world for 24 hours, about to return to Reality]
[All equipment have been stored in an Inventory Bag, can be taken out again when needed]
[Begin return]
"A player?" Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "Do you really have to use such an ancient method to remind me?"
[Please use your heart to experience this atmosphere, I will do my best to make it exactly the same as before] the War God UI replied.
"Tch, wouldn't that be too professional?" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
[We cannot fail] the War God UI replied.
"That's true"
As soon as it said so, Gu Qing Shan disappeared.
A bit of dizziness.
Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes, only to find that he was standing on a soft and luxurious carpet. He was kneeling on one knee, facing the beautiful girl in front of him.
Amidst the soothing music, there was also the sound of cheering and cheering.
"Be together, be together"
"Promise him"
"Brat, hurry up and say it!"
Gu Qing Shan looked around and slowly stood up.
Seemingly knowing what he was thinking, lines of glowing text quickly appeared:
[The demons are not spying on us here, and there are no signs of them appearing for the time being]
Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded and looked at the girl in front of him.
"Su Cher, I hope you can promise me something"
"What is it?" Su Cher asked.
"Come for barbecue tomorrow, 6 PM, I won't be waiting" Gu Qing Shan smiled and turned to leave.
At this point, a male student jumped out from the crowd and hurriedly said: "Qing Shan, didn't you tell me — — -"
His mouth was covered, his entire body was lifted up by Gu Qing Shan and dragged away.
A secluded area under the shade of a tree.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at him and casually said: "I remember your parents waking up from dawn to dusk every day just to support your studies — — they're probably preparing for your university fees right now, aren't they?"
Zhang Ye was surprised.
His hand that was holding the black needle was being held tightly by the other party, unable to move at all — — -
"You — — what exactly are you talking about?" Zhang Ye was shocked.
Gu Qing Shan said: "From now on, think about your parents before you do anything — — - you're on your own"
Saying so, she turned around and left without paying any more attention to him.
He walked through the empty campus, slowly walking along the familiar streets, carefully recalling the days of the past.
20 minutes later.
Suddenly, the sound of police sirens resounded in the sky.
Gu Qing Shan looked up to see two flying shuttles hovering above him.
A loud voice of warning resounded:
[Federation citizen Gu Qing Shan, you are currently suspected to be involved in a murder, please remain where you are and prepare to be investigated]
Gu Qing Shan stood still.
He thought for a bit, then loudly asked: "Who's dead?"
[Your classmate, Zhang Ye] the voice of warning replied.
Gu Qing Shan scowled.
— — I didn't tell Zhang Ye anything, didn't make things difficult for him, and definitely didn't expose any of his secrets.
But Zhang Ye is still dead.
It seems those people have developed a new idea this time.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized something.
Everything has changed.
How difficult is it to keep history the way it was?
In the sky, one of the shuttles suddenly opened its firing ports.
Two ice-cold firearms specifically made for suppressing riots appeared and pointed at Gu Qing Shan.
A cold electronic voice resounded:
[The suspect has been discovered to be running away, initiating immediate kill!]
Gu Qing Shan silently listened to it and couldn't help but sigh.
He looked at the two shuttles and muttered: "I finally understand why father liked to play shit back then"
…
At another location.
Within the endless fog.
A conversation was taking place on a floating island.
"Didn't the Six Saints only just appear? Why are you here? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I'm here to help you" the woman replied.
"But you can't act within Chaos, because you are a living being" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He suddenly looked at the void of space.
Lines of glowing text were hovering there:
[Attention]
[The other you has killed the Skin-flaying Demon and completed the first Entropy Solution]
[With the power of the Apocalypse sword, you will obtain the true power of the Apocalypse that the demon belonged to]
That's possible?
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
"Wait a minute — –" Crimson Shadow suddenly cut in: "In truth, I can send her back, but I don't have enough power. My clansmen must come with me in order for us to accomplish this"
"The Flowing Time clan, huh … are they willing to help?" Gu Qing Shan regained her senses and asked.
"As long as you agree to awaken the Space-Time Era first, they will definitely be willing to help you" Crimson Shadow replied.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I don't mind which Era to awaken first, but it would be best if I can help the other one"
Crimson Shadow appeared joyful and said: "I'll call them now"
She began to chant the summoning incantation.
"Wait a minute, why do you want to send me back to the past?" the woman asked.
"My other half is stalling for time in the past. He has most likely lost all of his powers and is currently walking back to the past" Gu Qing Shan explained.
"If I go back, will it affect anything?" the woman asked.
"There are indeed too many rules and restrictions within the past" Crimson Shadow cut in: "But with our Flowing Time clan's full support, you won't need to worry about such things, you only need to act as yourself again"
The woman thought for a bit, then muttered in a low voice: "— — -become Impartial Goddess again?"
"Indeed" Crimson Shadow replied.
