Gu Qing Shan stood in front of the altar and took a deep breath.
These statues … carry the power of the Death God.
Although it's very weak, it's still the unique aura of the River of Life and Death.
If I can awaken this power — —
Then, what's there to worry about in this situation where I'm being chased around?
Even if I return to the cultivation world and face Guang Yang sect and Shen Wu world, what's there to be afraid of?
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
The engineering hat on his head lightly flew up, turned back into a Card, and was caught by a single hand.
The fog slowly formed.
Xie Shuang Yan stood inside the fog, silently looking at Gu Qing Shan.
"Why are you here?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I'm here to retrieve my Card and see what you'll choose" Xie Shuang Yan replied.
"There's nothing to choose here" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Didn't you intend to awaken the power of the Death God just now?" Xie Shuang Yan asked.
Gu Qing Shan looked up at the three statues with a smile on his face.
He was the Death God.
Right now, as long as he reached his hand out and triggered the power of faith from the statues, he would immediately regain his identity as the Death God and be sensed by billions of worlds.
But he kept his hands behind his back.
"The Pope is outside, there are still heretics rampaging in the world, if you become the Death God again, you'll win everything" Xie Shuang Yan said.
"That's very tempting, unfortunately, I can't do it" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Why not?" Xie Shuang Yan asked.
"Once the power of the River of Death is triggered, Shroud would most likely notice it. Once he notices, Reneedol would also notice … Reneedol wields the Divine Armament of Fate, has two Deities of Fate by her side, not to mention that she's the ruler of the entire Wraith realm. With the current situation, she's an existence that can't be stopped by any schemes, I can't let her get involved" Gu Qing Shan casually said.
Xie Shuang Yan seriously listened and smirked: "I thought you'd be blinded by power"
"Power is only power" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"You … have grown up again, I finally have a bit more confidence — — - but I must tell you, the demons have already fully assimilated into the Demon King Sequence. Not too long from now, the demonized will be able to summon them into the world. If you can't think of a solution, I can only continue to pretend to be a side character" Xie Shuang Yan said.
"You've never stood out in any of the timelines. Why is that?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Xie Shuang Yan said, "We, the apostles of the past era, have already lost our power and have no chance to start over. Only you, the apostle of Primal Chaos, have the power to change everything at the end of this era."
"Why is that?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Xie Shuangyan said, "All the laws and mysteries are waiting for you to decide the victor between you and the evil demons. This is the battle of the next era. No one can ruin this."
"But they've taken over the [Demon King] sequence, so living beings won't be able to obtain it during this period of time — — - how are we supposed to fight them?" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
"That's for you to worry about."
"Then what about you?"
"I can't afford to die. Once I die, the era behind me will once again fall into eternal destruction, beyond redemption — — so I can only stand out and fight by your side after regaining my power"
"That Card just now — — -"
"I only have that Card left, do you understand?"
"Alright, I shouldn't be so harsh with you. If I were you, I would also want to ensure that the last hope of the era isn't extinguished first"
"It's good that you understand"
Xie Shuang Yan smiled at him and slowly retreated into the fog.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly called out: "Hey, if you want to leave, take me with you, what's with you leaving me here?"
Xie Shuang Yan's voice came from the fog: "Staying with me will attract too much attention, so I can't take you with me — — there's a warp formation on the altar, you can teleport yourself to the Holy Empire's border"
The fog scattered.
Xie Shuang Yan disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and muttered in a low voice: "What celebrity …"
He walked up the altar step by step. Sure enough, there was a warp formation here.
This warp formation was made in the style of the River of Life and Death, the most basic type of warp formation, it didn't even have any advanced functions.
Of course, I can't reveal my identity to the Holy Church of Death, that would bring unimaginable danger to myself.
However — —
Anna can.
As the heir of the Medici clan, being accepted by the Holy Church of Death of the Strife Zones is a small matter that wouldn't attract too much attention.
And that's how she entered the Strife Zones on the other side of the closed loop of time.
Then, letting her revive the power of Death will greatly benefit the battles of this world.
I'll let her come after I return.
Gu Qing Shan made up his mind and stood on the warp formation, muttering: "With my power of Death — — -"
He suddenly remembered that he still doesn't have the power of Death.
— — -then I can only use the power that the formation originally stored.
Gu Qing Shan crouched down, stroked the warp formation a bit, then suddenly said: "It's here"
He lightly tapped the warp formation.
A second later, spatial fluctuations appeared.
Runes began to circle around him, instantly opening space and teleporting him out.
…
The Holy Empire's border.
Gu Qing Shan quickly crossed the border, followed the mountain path down to a small town at the border of the Fuxi Empire.
After sitting in the town's bar for a while, Jang Young-ho arrived.
"Did everything go smoothly?" Jang Young-ho asked.
"It went smoothly, what about you? Did anything happen during the cleanup?"
"What problems could there be? We're all veterans here, but …"
"What?"
"This is the first time we've ever seen something so unknown" Jang Young-ho took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Seeing his uneasy expression, Gu Qing Shan called the bartender over and ordered two of the best liquor they had.
Jang Young-ho took a sip, scowled, put it back on the table, and stared at Gu Qing Shan.
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan didn't understand.
"I didn't think you'd even bring the Holy Empire's Emperor here — — Anna is currently explaining everything to him — — my god, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to start a world war? "Jang Young-ho shrugged.
"It's the opposite" Gu Qing Shan smiled and said: "Su An, broadcast the situation of the Holy Empire's palace to the Emperor, then explain the situation to him"
"Yes, Your Excellency."
Gu Qing Shan raised her glass to Jang Young-ho: "There was a premeditated assassination attempt in the Holy Empire's palace, the Holy Church's Pope personally brought people to assassinate the Emperor. Thinking that the Emperor is Anna's father, I saved him ahead of time"
Jang Young-ho muttered in a low voice: "So that's what happened …"
"That's nothing, we still have a lot of things to do from now on" Gu Qing Shan said.
"— — -you're not going to kidnap the Fuxi Empire's Emperor again, are you?" Jang Young-ho shrugged.
Gu Qing Shan went silent, then slowly replied: "Not for now"
Jang Young-ho glared at her.
"Gu Qing Shan, what exactly are you doing?"
Gu Qing Shan pointed at the sky above and said: "For example, that sea in the sky, no one is being swept away anymore — — - we've already won against it"
"Then Su An and I stopped an assassination attempt"
"With your professional experience, what exactly do you think I'm doing?"
Jang Young-ho thought for a few moments, then said: "If it's all about that kind of thing, as long as it can prevent the world from falling into chaos and save countless lives … then I'm more than willing to work with you"
"It's a pleasure working with you" Gu Qing Shan raised her glass.
Jang Young-ho sighed and raised his glass: "I hope you'll tell me before you do anything next time, I'll be prepared"
"Alright, no problem" Gu Qing Shan drank her glass first.
"What are we going to do next?" Jang Young-ho asked.
"Deal with the mutated Man Killer Fiends and Man Eater Fiends, as well as other mutated humans" Gu Qing Shan answered.
Jang Young-ho sighed in relief and finished his glass.
"This wine is quite a good brand, but the taste isn't great, there's a problem with how it was stored, so the quality is dropping — — next time I'll take you to my wine cellar, there's quite a bit of my collection there" he muttered.
Looking at him, Gu Qing Shan had a thought.
— — Anna will receive Hound Deity's help to train in [Flames of Death].
Ye Fei Li has already maxed out with a single strike.
Su Cher will awaken a card-type ability, so I'll help her go to Fog Isle ahead of time.
What about Jang Young-ho?
His God's Chosen Skill is very useful, but in terms of personal strength, is there any way I can help him grow a bit faster?
Liao Xing will also return soon.
Not just them, but the living beings of this world — — -
After losing the chance to carry the [Demon King] sequence, is there any way to help them grow a bit faster?
Furthermore …
As the situation becomes more and more serious, every time I go to the cultivation world, I'll have to disappear from my homeworld for an hour.
During this hour, if something happens that I can't undo, I won't be able to do anything.
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a few moments, then suddenly stood up.
"Let's go"
"Where to?" Jang Young-ho asked.
"I'll take you to find this world's treasures" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Treasures?" Jang Young-ho asked with interest, "What kind of treasures?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the void of space and asked: "Su An, do you still remember where the 5 Elemental Origins of my homeworld are located?"
"I do, sir" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Very well … let us see, after we meet again, whether or not we'll become even more powerful" Gu Qing Shan cheerfully said.
He and Jang Young-ho left the bar.
A small shuttle was parked here, waiting for the two of them.
As Gu Qing Shan was about to board the shuttle, she sensed something and stood still.
"What's the matter?" Jang Young-ho asked.
Gu Qing Shan didn't say anything and simply tilted her head slightly.
A dim flag silently manifested from the void of space behind her, abruptly giving off a crimson flame.
— — the power of the Saint Pillar of Fire had been awakened!
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared from the void of space:
[Attention]
[You who belongs to the Apocalypse has obtained the powerful power of Eternal Destruction, unsealing the power of the past Era]
[The Apostle of a certain Era is regaining his power]
[The Apostle is preparing to officially enter the timeline and fight alongside you]
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
"Is it Xie Shuang Yan?" he asked.
[It is not Xie Shuang Yan, her identity is currently unknown] the War God UI replied.
Gu Qing Shan appeared confused.
If it's not Xie Shuang Yan … then who?
A new line of notification quickly appeared in front of his eyes:
[Attention! The entire timeline has begun to change, you must immediately return to the cultivation world!]
