Shroud held the sword talisman in his hand and doubtfully asked: "The secret you spoke of, is it related to this sword talisman?"
Xie Gu Hong replied: "That secret can only be revealed when it is needed the most"
"Then what about this sword talisman?"
"As the strongest fighting force of humanity, we've learned a lot of things to strengthen our fighting techniques … you are an entity born from the Apocalypse and the seal, while Gu Qing Shan used to be a Chaotic Connate Saint, so this sword talisman will borrow your power to do something"
Shroud looked down at the sword talisman. Not only was it buzzing, it had even begun to draw power from the void of space, about to fly away.
Could it be — —
Shroud understood quite a bit and looked up again to see Xie Gu Hong pouring himself a cup of Forgetting River water and about to drink it.
"Wait a minute!" Shroud hurriedly shouted.
The cup in Xie Gu Hong's hand stopped and asked: "What else do you want?"
"Your excellency, please tell me what I should do next" Shroud asked.
Xie Gu Hong replied: "Go find Gu Qing Shan — — he has lost his power, but his identity as a Samsara remains, and he was a Great Saint in his past life, you'll understand this secret as soon as you meet"
"What exactly is the secret?" Shroud asked.
"You'll know when you get there"
Xie Gu Hong formed a sword seal with one hand and pointed at the talisman.
The talisman glowed brightly and turned into layers upon layers of light that enveloped Shroud.
"Your excellency, what exactly do I — — -"
Before Shroud could finish his words, he had already taken to the sky, pierced through the sea of clouds, and left this broken Huang Quan world.
Xie Gu Hong slowly pulled his gaze back.
"Now, it's up to you …"
He raised the cup of Forgetting River water and drank it all at once.
…
The sword talisman gave off an unparalleled sharp presence that carried Shroud through the River of Time.
At a certain point, the sword talisman seemed to have sensed something and abruptly descended towards a certain moment.
The world manifested.
A streak of light descended from above, crashing into the mountain behind Bai Hua sect.
Boom — — — —
With a resounding sound of impact, Shroud climbed out from the crater with a dirty expression.
Two people stood in front of him.
Qin Xiaolou.
Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan's eyelids twitched.
"Why are you here?" He transmitted his voice.
"It's a long story, I went to see your master" Shroud replied.
"You saw her?" Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
"Xie Gu Hong"
"What?!"
While they were communicating secretly, Qin Xiaolou took out a formation plate and shouted,
"Who are you?"
Layers upon layers of offensive spells appeared on the formation plate.
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly said: "Second brother, allow me to introduce you, he is — —"
Qin Xiaolou cut him off and spoke first: "You don't need to tell me, I can see it — — he's holding a Blue Cloud sect talisman, so he's definitely after our Bai Hua sect's ruins, that's why he snuck in here"
Gu Qing Shan and Shroud exchanged glances, then looked at the talisman.
At some point in time, the talisman had already lost all of its sword intent. Instead, it was emanating spell technique fluctuations that were constantly dissipating.
Gu Qing Shan said: "Senior brother, he's a good friend of mine, he's really fine"
Shroud also followed up: "That's right, Gu Qing Shan and I are good friends, I heard that he joined Bai Hua sect, so I came to congratulate him"
Qin Xiaolou was still holding the formation plate in his hand and cautiously asked: "Congratulate? Then where's your congratulatory gift? "
Congratulatory gift?
Shroud froze.
— — I fell here from another Space-Time, I don't even know what's going on, and you're telling me to give you a congratulatory gift as soon as we meet?
Gu Qing Shan sighed and said: "Second brother, it's like this, he's — — -"
The sound of paper tearing drowned out his voice.
The three of them turned to look.
The talisman in Shroud's hand abruptly scattered, turned into fragments, and reformed into a folded ball of paper.
Qin Xiaolou's eyes flashed with worry, then turned into surprise and asked: "Ah? Why do you have a Great Desolate Era God Inviting Talisman? "
God Inviting Talisman?
Shroud turned to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan shook her head and sent her voice: "History has changed, there are Age treasures and Phase Worlds in this era, but this is the first time I've heard of a God Inviting Talisman"
He asked: "Second brother, what is a God Inviting Talisman?"
"The so-called God Inviting Talisman requires a designated junior to combine them into a complete talisman in order to obtain a certain sealed item …"
"How do I use this talisman?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
Qin Xiaolou replied: "By using a Thaumaturgy — — ah right, your new Thaumaturgy can be used, it shouldn't be an issue to activate it"
"But that Thaumaturgy of mine seems to be used to find someone" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
"That's a peerless Thaumaturgy of yours, how is it supposed to be used to find someone?" Qin Xiaolou appeared disappointed.
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
— — -that's right, I've memorized over 5 million words of that mnemonic chant, but the Thaumaturgy I used was only to find someone, how laughable.
He received the round ball of paper from Shroud, pondered briefly, then unleashed the Thaumaturgy he had just obtained.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI:
[You've performed the Darkness Thaumaturgy: Universe Spirit Summoning]
[By relying on a certain item, find its connection to all living beings and summon the spirits that had come into contact with it, immediately summoning them in front of you]
[— — Let everything continue their previous fate]
[Attention!]
[You've unleashed this Thaumaturgy on the God Inviting Talisman]
[A certain spirit connected to this talisman is about to descend — —]
The talisman began to give off a full circle of moonlight that illuminated its surroundings.
The moonlight slowly manifested into a piece of white paper that manifested as a humanoid figure.
Gu Qing Shan was surprised and couldn't help but exclaim: "Senior, so it was you!"
That figure was the one who personally fought against Gu Qing Shan in the Asura world, the one who gave him the dark green ring.
However, during the battle that followed, Gu Qing Shan had never seen this senior again.
The paper man descended, then swiftly tapped Shroud's body with his hand.
In an instant, boundless power of ice and destruction radiated from Shroud's body, then gathered in the paper man's hand in the blink of an eye.
Shroud scowled: "You're looking for — —"
"Shroud, he's one of us!" Gu Qing Shan immediately replied.
Shroud had no choice but to temporarily suppress his anger and turned to the paper man.
The paper man said: "I'll explain later, I'm borrowing his power to stop this current calamity — —"
As soon as it said so, it clenched the power of ice and destruction in its hand, then swam through the void of space like a dragon and a snake to draw a talisman.
The paper man then clapped the talisman with its other hand and shouted:
「 Wind Lightning Water Dark, Metal Earth Grand Elder 」
「 — — Grand Gate of Ten Thousand Dragons, open! 」
At the very next moment.
The entire world began to tremble.
The paper man turned around and told Gu Qing Shan's group: "The evil fiends have arrived, I have awakened the souls of the ten thousand dragons, they will return to this world and do their best to construct a barrier to prevent the evil fiends from entering for now"
"Evil fiends? Can the dragons stop the evil fiends? "Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask.
"They have already prepared a completely new barrier of power that the evil fiends have never seen before, they will immediately be transported out and buy us some time" the paper man replied.
Shroud wanted to ask something else, but the paper man sternly said: "Shh, they're about to begin!"
All was quiet.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Within the silence, countless dragon roars suddenly resounded from deep within the sky.
The desolate sound of a flute resounded.
Followed by the sound of a dragon cursing:
「 Yo ~ Dragons that have slumbered for countless years, as soon as I open my eyes, the world has changed 」
Another dragon voice resounded: 「 Live well, cultivate well, we've always been fine, but you evil fiends want to invade us again, making us issue a declaration of war, hmph! 」
A third dragon voice resounded: 「 Our presence is now unstoppable, even if we come from the poor dragon cavern, you can only admit defeat in front of us, yo ~ 」
The entire world silently listened to it.
The paper man happily replied: 「 They're doing their best, they should be able to hold us off for a while 」
Shroud: "…"
Gu Qing Shan: "…"
Qin Xiaolou: "…"
「 Very well, let me help them 」 the paper man casually drew another talisman and placed his other hand on Gu Qing Shan's shoulder.
Gu Qing Shan was surprised: "Senior?"
「 There's no helping it, this technique requires borrowing the identity of your past life — — - 」
The paper man then scattered the talisman that manifested in the void of space and shouted:
「 Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth — — 」
「 Hibernation of Ten Thousand Mysteries, release!
「 — — Divine Beasts of Chaos, it is time for you to awaken!
