"He should already know — — - the table has already been flipped, it's time for him to make his move" Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
「 What does he want to do? 」 the Delimitation sword asked.
"Ah? You're the strongest summoning sword in the void, I thought you knew "Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
「 What the hell do I know, I'm just a sword that kills 」 the Delimitation sword replied.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and didn't say anything else.
At this point.
He was currently deep within the Ruins of Eternal Destruction, waiting for Fusi to return so he had time to chat with Delimitation.
"Gu Qing Shan"
"Hm?"
「 You who belong to living beings are stalling for time, while you who belong to the Apocalypse are trying to help him, isn't that a bit of a waste of time? 」 the Delimitation sword pondered and asked.
"You're saying — — I should hurry up and awaken the Eras of the past?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 That's right, instead of waiting here, it's better to think of a way to awaken the Eras of the past and start the Era War, that way, you who belong to living beings wouldn't have to waste so much time 」 the Delimitation sword replied.
Gu Qing Shan praised: "Not bad, among the swords I have, you're the best at thinking"
「 So you've decided to listen to my suggestion? 」 the Delimitation sword asked.
"That's not the case, there are actually other reasons for this — —"
Gu Qing Shan paused a bit, then explained: "I don't know if you've noticed or not, but the evil creatures should have already arrived at this place in search of the Mother of Time, but when I arrived, I didn't see any large groups of evil creatures"
The Delimitation sword asked: 「 Do you think they've returned to the past? 」
"Of course, they want to return to the past to kill me, then take down the Samsara in one fell swoop and become the main Era — — - after all, that's much simpler"
"And right now, thanks to my other 'me' working together, not only did he manage to stall for time, he even attracted a large amount of firepower, perhaps even eliminating quite a few evil creatures. This is a small investment that's worth a lot" Gu Qing Shan commented.
「 Then what do you want to do next? Should we put the Era War aside for now? "the Delimitation sword asked.
Gu Qing Shan showed a rare look of anxiety on her face and said softly, "I don't know … I probably need more power and information."
His gaze focused on the void of space and spoke: "Have Grandpa Chicken deliver a message for me — — kill as many demons as possible, I need the power of the True Apocalypse"
Two lines of glowing text appeared on the Chaos God of War interface:
"The Spirit of Eternal Destruction has been informed: Wodetian Wiesemo Lamo."
"It will relay your message."
Gu Qing Shan retracted her gaze, and her expression suddenly changed.
He looked around.
The wind.
It was getting colder.
The floating mist began to surge and boil.
A black shadow emerged from the fog not far away and floated in the air.
It had nine insect-like faces, its head was as big as a millstone, but its body was as slender as a mortal's. Its hands and feet were insect limbs that were as sharp as knives.
"Gu Qing Shan … I am one of the evil demons, you can call me Nine-Faced" the monster said.
"You were the one who turned the previous Emperor Of Heaven into a spell, then killed him?" Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice.
Nine-Faced Insect replied: "The grudge between us and you can't be resolved even after several hundred years"
"That's why you didn't come here to talk about grudges" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"I personally came to meet you in Primal Chaos to discuss a condition with you" Nine-Faced Insect replied.
"Speak" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"We've decided to preserve the lives of the living beings of the Samsara for you. You can take them with you, as long as you leave the Samsara to us" Nine-Faced Insect replied.
"Why are you suddenly so willing to negotiate? Seems like you've suffered heavy losses in the past era? "Gu Qing Shan smirked.
Nine-Faced Insect coldly replied: "I've come to meet you here because you've proven yourself worthy of such treatment, but also because — — I'm guessing that you're hesitating"
"Ah?" Gu Qing Shan's expression didn't change at all.
Nine-Faced Insect's nine insect faces all turned around to stare at him: "Indeed, the Mother of Time's slumber is right behind me, but even I don't dare to recklessly enter Primal Chaos — — - because I don't know what the Mother of Time is"
"You're also afraid of it?" Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
"We spent over a billion years to understand the Age of Chaos, slowly infiltrating it bit by bit until we had the confidence to replace it in one fell swoop. But in the end, we still ended up like this, unable to completely succeed" Nine-Faced Insect replied.
"You're very cautious" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"You're also very cautious. You know that the most terrifying thing in the infinite worlds is the unknown — — - when you're facing something completely unknown, it's the same as putting everything you have in front of it, no one knows what will happen next" Nine-Faced Insect replied.
"But the Mother of Time will cooperate with me — — - as long as it wants to awaken from its slumber, it will have to cooperate with me" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Nine-Faced Insect silently looked at him and spoke: "The Merfolk of the Time Clan were nothing more than a backup left behind by the Space-Time Era. They had a good image, maintained neutrality, abided by their promises, and protected the iron law of Time — — that was why they were pushed to power and won the trust of their descendants — — I'm guessing that even they themselves don't know what kind of truly terrifying existences were in those Space-Time Eras countless years ago"
Gu Qing Shan didn't say anything.
Nine-Faced Insect continued: "Aside from the Space-Time Era, there were many other Eras that slumbered within Primal Chaos. I'm guessing that you've seen some strange existences and know what kind of unimaginable power they had"
"What do you mean?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Don't pretend, the one who allied with you, he was tied to that bronze pillar and had two of his seals undone — — - even I don't dare to fight him right now"
Nine-Faced Insect spoke with a heavy tone: "You want to awaken all of these terrifying existences from the depths of Primal Chaos?"
"It's still better than everyone turning into evil creatures" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Nine-Faced Insect shook his head: "Evil … is our instinct, there's nothing to say about that. But we can guarantee that as soon as you're willing to give up resistance, you will be allowed to take away all living beings of the Samsara"
He retreated into the fog and said: "The conditions have always been right in front of you, accept them at any time, and the war will end at any time"
The fog became thicker.
A few moments later.
Nothing else happened.
"He left" the Delimitation sword said.
"Hm" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Will you accept the evil creature's conditions and end the war?" End the war? "the Delimitation Sword asked.
"I won't" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"I'll say this first, I definitely won't stand on the side of the evil creatures, but in truth, its understanding of the past Eras — — - is actually quite reasonable" the Delimitation sword said.
"But I won't accept their conditions" Gu Qing Shan casually said.
"Why not?" the Delimitation sword asked.
"Once the evil creatures destroy the Samsara and return to the new Era, they will definitely come to kill us all. At that time, they would have already become the lords of the Era, the final victors, no one would be able to stop them from doing anything they want. I'm guessing that they want to turn all living beings into evil creatures, the lowest kind of slaves among the evil creatures to display their victory — — - perhaps they'll use us as food? Pets? Ornamental species? "Gu Qing Shan slowly asked.
The Delimitation sword replied: "You're thinking a lot"
"This is a fact of history that many civilizations ended up with the same result after war — — - history never lies, so we will never surrender or admit defeat" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"So that's how it is" the Delimitation sword replied.
At this point, streams of flowing sand appeared from the void of space.
Lady Fusi had returned.
"The situation is quite good" she said with a hint of a smile.
…
After a brief explanation, Lady Fusi explained everything that happened in the River of Time.
"Which means, they've been killed to the point of fear?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I think so" Lady Fusi replied.
Gu Qing Shan smiled.
No wonder they came to negotiate for peace, they really did suffer a lot in order to do so.
He said: "Lady, you've already arranged quite a few minor events in each period of time, leave the rest to the other me"
"Don't you want to tell him?" Lady Fusi asked.
"No need, Lady Fusi, I've truly troubled you this time, please go and rest" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Very well, call me if you need anything. Our Awaitings are currently training their skills and increasing their strength in preparation for the final battle against the evil creatures" Lady Fusi smiled.
"Hm" Gu Qing Shan also smiled.
Lady Fusi nodded to him, then slowly disappeared into the void of space.
After she left, Gu Qing Shan once again looked at the fog in front of her.
— — the gigantic shadow was still behind the fog, completely motionless.
The Mother of Time was sleeping there!
But what exactly was it?
What kind of power did it wield? What were its thoughts? What would it do after waking up?
There was no answer.
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath, drew the Delimitation sword, and flew towards the shadow.
