"You called … me?"
"Yes"
The figure stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and spoke: "The Age of Chaos originated from the Age of Chaos, since we couldn't win against the evil demons, we naturally had to call upon the power of Chaos"
Gu Qing Shan recalled: "But when I descended into the Age of Chaos in the past life, the only ones left were the demonized Saints, none of you"
"There is a reason for that" the figure replied.
"What reason?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I don't know — — I'm not the protector of the secret, so I've already forgotten about that reason. Even if I'm completely destroyed, I wouldn't be able to find out that secret" the figure replied.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
The protector of the secret is Xie Gu Hong.
He has three secrets in his hands, so even if he told me one, there are still two more.
If he doesn't tell me, then it's not time yet.
The figure continued: "But I know something else"
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"We once had an expert diviner among us, he predicted that in the future, you would become fated with the Devil King Warden Rod — — -"
Saying so, the figure stared deeply at him.
Gu Qing Shan slowly understood.
If that's the case, the only thing I can do now is …
"I still don't know your name" Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist.
"I am Supreme Soul Hooking Saint, you can call me Hooking Soul" the figure replied.
"I'm going to steal the Devil King Warden Rod, can you stay and help me?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"In fact, I'm currently heading to the Apostle of the Saint Pillar of Fire, he's in a critical situation, he's using a Soul Inviting Talisman to stop the evil demons and stall for time" Soul Hooking Saint replied.
"Then go, I'll think of something else" Gu Qing Shan immediately said.
— — of course, the matter on Qin Xiaolou's side is more important.
Otherwise, once the evil demons enter the cultivation world, everything will be over.
Soul Hooking Saint smiled and said: "Before I leave, there's something I can do"
He casually waved his hand.
The Forgetting River Soul Stealing Hook went through the layers of fire and hovered in front of the two of them.
The figure stared at the hook and spoke:
"— — This hook has been sealed by me for a very long time, it shall awaken today"
He formed a seal with his fingers and lightly tapped on the Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook.
Countless runes appeared on the hook's body. After flashing for several breaths of time, it disappeared once again.
The long hook shone with a multicolored light, exuding an ancient aura.
"The dead from hell on this side aren't strong. With this hook, you'll be able to become the strongest," the figure said.
"Thank you sir" Gu Qing Shan said.
「 Then I'll be going to fight the evil demon first — — after you return to the cultivation world, we'll meet again 」 the figure said.
"Farewell" Gu Qing Shan clasped her fist.
The silhouette nodded at him and instantly retracted the surrounding flames. Then, it turned into a wisp of flaming light and disappeared in a flash. Soon, it disappeared without a trace.
All around.
Everything returned to normal.
Gu Qing Shan found himself still standing on top of the large rock outside the cavern of hell, surrounded by numerous Divine Armaments of Huang Quan.
He looked at the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook in his hand.
A voice resounded from the hook: 「 Now that I've remembered everything from the past, my power has also awakened. I'll listen to the Saint's orders and aid you in this battle 」
"Got it!" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The hook then sent its voice: 「 Listen well, the current power of my Thaumaturgy is like this — — 」
Following its explanation, lines of glowing text appeared from the void of space:
[The Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook has awakened]
[You've obtained the Chaos treasure tool: Soul Bringer]
[This hook has the Thaumaturgy: Soul Stealing]
[Description: While holding this hook and chanting a mantra, the user will be able to absorb the source of the other party's three souls and seven spirits, using it to strengthen oneself and repair all injuries]
[— — This Thaumaturgy cannot be defended against]
After reading through it, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but stay silent for a few moments.
This ability combines the three aspects of killing the enemy, strengthening oneself, and healing injuries, it's already unimaginable.
Such a powerful Divine weapon is truly rare in this world.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, the hook asked: 「 Truthfully, ever since I met you, I've been wondering about something 」
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"You're clearly a dead person, why did you come from the Realm of Life?" the hook asked.
"Because I'm already dead in the future" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"So you've been preparing to steal the Devil King Warden Rod for a while now?"
"I'm guessing I'll need to steal it again — — we're going to participate in this Devil King's War for Supremacy right now — — we need to get the scepter as soon as possible" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Is it very urgent?" the hook asked.
"Yes, there are still people fighting outside" Gu Qing Shan replied.
His figure flashed and flew towards the Hell Cavern.
…
The Blood River Hell.
This was one of the most brutal hells, as well as the one Gu Qing Shan went to during the last War for Supremacy.
In the middle of the sea of blood stood a large square arena.
The arena was divided into four sides, and each side had one thousand eight hundred steps.
Standing in front of the first step, Gu Qing Shan sighed emotionally: "Just like last time …"
On the 1800 steps, screams of pain could be heard everywhere.
As the wounded dead people noticed Gu Qing Shan's appearance, they all shouted:
"Look, another newcomer!"
"He's overestimating himself. His strength is too low."
"Since we can't climb up, we might as well use him for some fun!"
"Ahahaha, go!"
They all crawled forward, wanting to grab Gu Qing Shan's feet.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and silently raised the Soul Bringer in front of herself.
[Soul Seeker], activate!
Bam bam bam bam bam — — -
A series of loud noises resounded from the top of the stairs all the way to the highest point of the arena.
The villains seemed to have been struck by something invisible, unable to move a single inch. But their bodies gave off blinking lights that went through the void of space and entered Gu Qing Shan's body.
Seeing this, Gu Qing Shan muttered to himself: "I miscalculated a bit"
"What is it?" Shannu asked.
"Anyone struck by this Thaumaturgy won't only have their power absorbed, but they'll also be unable to move" Gu Qing Shan replied.
A line of glowing text quickly appeared in the void of space:
[You've activated the Soul Bringer's power: Soul Seeker]
[You've obtained the Origin power of living beings' three souls and seven spirits, your strength has begun to increase]
Gu Qing Shan slowly walked onto the arena.
When he stood on the arena, all the dead people on the 1800 steps of the arena were lying dead on the ground, unable to even lift their arms, let alone fight.
At the very next moment.
The world was spinning.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly landed on an empty field.
All around him was a vast wilderness.
Night had fallen.
Gu Qing Shan used his memory to look afar.
At the edge of the wilderness was the coast, where a large ship was anchored.
Out of nowhere, a message appeared in Gu Qing Shan's mind.
It was a request from the Devil King Warden Rod from afar.
"You want me to board the ship … I don't have that much time to waste, I might as well get rid of them all at once"
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
He raised the Soul Bringer.
Countless sounds came from all over the wilderness, even from the huge ship.
Thousands of streaks of light flew across the sky and entered Gu Qing Shan's body.
Oom — — -
Spirit energy waves began to spread from his body.
Foundation Establishment late stage.
But Gu Qing Shan didn't care about this.
He raised the snow-white hook and ran towards the shore. Soon, he reached the shore.
He jumped onto the deck of the ship.
The villains who participated in the Samsara Clash for Supremacy were all lying powerlessly on the ground.
"What kind of evil technique is this!?" a female Asura gritted her teeth.
Gu Qing Shan looked at her.
— — -female Asura, Zhi Luo.
He smiled and said: "We'll catch up later, I need to hurry up"
Saying so, he stood still and silently waited.
A few moments later.
The void of space trembled. A heavy scepter descended from above.
The body of the scepter was black, the head of a horned skull, the entire scepter was shrouded in black fog.
The Devil King Warden Rod!
Gu Qing Shan walked forward and spoke: "Although you've lost your weapon spirit, I'm sure you've already noticed that there's no one left to compete with me for the Devil King position"
Countless sprites of light that looked like stars appeared on the Devil King Warden Rod.
These sprites of light surrounded the scepter's horned skull, silently hovering.
One, two, three, four … a total of 54 sprites of light.
The sprites of light circled around for a bit before going out.
Finally.
Only two sprites of light remained.
"Ah? There's someone else? "Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
Suddenly.
The sound of an insect could be heard from deep in the sky.
Gu Qing Shan looked up, only to see that the world barrier in the sky had already been broken. A black shadow silently appeared.
The Nine-faced Insect Demon!
— — it traveled through the endless Space-Time, but didn't try to fuse with the heretical echelon, instead it came to hell!
As it looked down at the ship below, it couldn't help but laugh out loud:
『「 Gu Qing Shan, Gu Qing Shan, are you going to die this time?』」
…
The future.
The ruins of Primal Chaos. The Dark Continent.
A gigantic sword phantom of several thousand meters long shot into the sky, shooting straight into the void of space.
After a few breaths' worth of time.
The sword phantom slowly faded away, revealing a figure.
Gu Qing Shan.
"Entropy Disintegration!" he shouted in a low voice.
Boom — — -
From the void of space, countless golden waterfalls appeared, plowing through the ground.
Numerous illusory figures entered the waterfall.
They had already been heretical, so after being disintegrated by Entropy Disintegration, they turned into the purest [Eternal Death Origin].
The darkness around Gu Qing Shan's body became a bit heavier.
Four dazzling banners appeared behind him, fluttering in the fierce astral winds.
Gu Qing Shan wielded the Delimitation sword and looked towards the depths of the Dark Continent.
"There are still quite a few powerful ones …"
He narrowed his eyes.
All of a sudden, a blood-red thread flew through the infinite Space-Time, quickly coiling around his left hand.
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared in the void of space:
[The Thread of Fate has manifested the Omen of Death]
[Attention, the other 'you' is currently facing the fate of complete destruction]
[You and him are created from the Boundary Stone, if he is destroyed, your strength will be halved]
After reading through it, Gu Qing Shan sensed a familiar presence from the Thread of Fate.
— — -it feels like Huang Quan.
Which means, I've already gone to Huang Quan to find Shannu?
Gu Qing Shan asked: "Is there any way to save his fate?"
A line of glowing text quickly appeared:
[Crush the Boundary Stone, you will immediately head towards his location. This might be able to save you from this crisis, but you will remain in the closed loop for a while, temporarily unable to return to the present]
"His fate is hanging by a thread."
[Please make a decision right now!]
Gu Qing Shan pondered for a few moments, then shook her head: "I can't, if I leave right now, the Dark Continent will be taken by the corrupted spirits of Chaos, they will take over all of Primal Chaos …"
— — -but not saving the other 'me' doesn't seem like a good idea either.
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts quickly turned as she wielded the Delimitation sword and flew towards the depths of the Dark Continent.
The Delimitation sword couldn't help but ask: 「 Are you really not going? The thread in your hand seems to carry an extremely ominous omen, as if it's certain death 」
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Certain death? I've often run into such a fate, but before I do anything, I would always prepare a few life-saving measures for myself "
"But that other 'you' don't have any strength, do you really think he would have a life-saving measure? You should know that the Nine-faced Insect Demon had already left "the Delimitation sword replied.
"Then, I'll definitely have a way to deal with that … fine, I'll help myself again"
Gu Qing Shan grabbed one of the banners on his back and raised it up high.
"If it's the Huang Quan counterpart of my homeworld … then the one closest to the other 'me' should be Xie Shuang Yan"
"She's been paying close attention to the entire situation — — - let us see just how strong she is"
As soon as she said so, the war flag abruptly gave off a blinding light.
