On top of the mountain.
Gu Qing Shan crossed her arms and pondered for a bit: "You're right, I've also found out that I'm that sequence, the true body of Primal Chaos, the ultimate technique of all living beings"
"But you've gained sentience and become a living being" Dugu Feng said.
"That's right" Gu Qing Shan admitted.
"Gu Qing Shan, I don't know what you think about this decisive battle, but I still believe that no one should sacrifice the lives of others for the sake of so-called salvation" Dugu Feng said.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then sighed: "I agree with you on this matter"
"Very well, regardless of the situation, you've always maintained the necessary calmness" Dugu Feng took a step back, turned back into a faint image, and returned to the giant corpse's body.
The giant corpse let out a 'wu wu wu' voice:
"Then … Gu Qing Shan, do you want to kill me?"
Gu Qing Shan shook her head: "If I kill you, I'll also die, that's too stupid, but the reason why I exist is because this is the wish of all living beings …"
He showed a hesitant expression.
The giant corpse continued: "Why can't we end things like this? You're still alive, I'm also free, isn't that better? "
Gu Qing Shan looked around.
The Apostles, the 6 Saints of Samsara, as well as all living beings on earth — — -
Even if they were illusions, they were created illusions. Perhaps one day, they would become living beings just like me.
Who knows?
After all, with a role model like me, there's still hope.
"Of course I'm willing to live — — - if you don't act against living beings, I'm even willing to become your true friend" Gu Qing Shan said.
The giant corpse laughed heartily and spoke:
"No problem, Gu Qing Shan, we've fought side by side for so long, of course I'm willing to remain your friend, not die together with you"
Gu Qing Shan shrugged, "Alright, you can do whatever you want, whether it's resurrecting your subordinates, or something else. As long as you don't destroy the world, I promise to live in peace with your Nefarious Devil Tribe."
The giant corpse stared at her for a long time, then spoke in a low voice: "Gu Qing Shan, you are my only friend. For your sake, I swore to restrain all evil creatures, to stop them from destroying living beings and the world — — - if living beings and the world were to be destroyed, it would only be because of them"
Gu Qing Shan sheathed her sword and cupped her fists with a smile. "Thank you."
The giant corpse looked around and let out a long sigh. "The battle in the void is finally over … I'm no longer attacked by Chaos, which means I've regained my true freedom."
"What do you plan to do next?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I don't know yet, what about you?" the giant corpse asked.
"I'll go find my parents — — - they turned a technique into their own child, I want to know what they were thinking" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Speaking of this, the giant corpse's expression became cautious, thought for a while before speaking: "As far as I know, they've already left this part of the void, no one knows where they went"
"Then it'll be troublesome, I'll have to track them down after this" Gu Qing Shan said.
He paused briefly, then continued: "Of course, I'll have to deal with everything here first"
The giant corpse nodded: "You're right, there are countless living beings here, you'll have to explain everything to them, as well as those who are fated to be with you"
Saying so, the giant corpse slowly retreated and turned back into Dugu Feng, hovering outside the mountain.
"You're leaving?" Gu Qing Shan sharply asked.
"Evil creatures … it's best to be separated from living beings, I'll have to find another place to resurrect them" Dugu Feng replied.
"That's fine, you can go" Gu Qing Shan agreed.
Dugu Feng nodded to him, silently flew up to the sky, passed through the world barrier, and left through the endless void.
Gu Qing Shan stood at the top of the mountain, silently watching this.
At the very next moment.
As if something had completely disappeared from this world.
Everyone regained their freedom of movement.
"Ah? Where's Dugu Feng? "
Qin Xiaolou asked in surprise.
"He suddenly disappeared — — not good, look, the tomb behind him also disappeared!" the Asura King anxiously said.
Gu Qing Shan went silent, then turned around and told everyone: "No need to worry"
"Qing Shan, what exactly happened?" Anna asked.
"You're all under its control, so I discussed with it a bit about both sides' gains and losses, then came to an agreement" Gu Qing Shan smiled and told them.
"WHAT!!!" everyone exclaimed in shock.
A while later.
Gu Qing Shan told them everything that he could, as well as the gist of the situation.
Everyone digested it for a while.
A few moments later.
"I originally wanted to seek revenge on the evil fiends" Luo Bingli complained.
"Forget it, the terror of that tomb is beyond our understanding, it's not something we can fight against" Xie Shuang Yan said.
The Asura King sighed dejectedly and said, "It can easily freeze all Laws. We don't even know what's going on and we're already under its control. You still want to seek revenge from such a monster?"
Everyone nodded.
— — -even after experiencing destruction several times in the past, they had never seen such a terrifying evil fiend.
This battle was simply unwinnable.
"Qing Shan, will there really be no more conflict between the evil fiends and living beings?" Su Cher was a bit doubtful.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I've already made such an agreement with it, I hope … that will be the case"
She suddenly turned to Qin Xiaolou and asked: "You understand the Law of Causality, can you sense our future?"
Qin Xiaolou turned his hand to take out a tortoise shell, casually took it and smiled.
"Shifu, all of us will be able to live and cultivate within this void of space for a long time without being disturbed by any evil fiends"
"Really?"
"Really"
"… That's great"
Even the Saints and Apostles couldn't help but feel excited when they heard this.
Turtle Saint even leapt into the air and did a somersault.
"The war is finally over." Anna sighed in relief.
She turned to Gu Qing Shan.
What comes next will be a peaceful life. I'll be with him …
Only to see the smile on Gu Qing Shan's face slowly freeze.
"What is it, Qing Shan?" Anna grabbed his hand and asked.
Gu Qing Shan grabbed her hand, then slowly let go.
"There's a bit of work that needs to be done" he said.
Immediately, another pair of hands grabbed his hand.
Su Cher.
"What is it? We can face it together with you! "she looked straight into Gu Qing Shan's eyes.
Seeing everyone looking at him, he chuckled: "It's fine, but the matter with the River of Life and Death isn't over yet. There's a small problem with its fusion with the Samsara, so I have to take a look"
He let go of Su Cher's hand, took to the sky, and disappeared.
…
The Blood Sea.
Within the boundless Blood Sea, Dugu Feng stood on top of the water, holding another person in his hand.
The Blood Sea Martyr's Palace Lord.
She was being held by the neck, her body covered in countless eerie runes.
"Your end is also the beginning of the end for all living beings"
Dugu Feng coldly said.
His hand turned into a sharp black blade — — -
Boom!
In a split second, the Martyr's Palace Lord turned into a flash of blood, flew out from his hand, and was caught by another hand.
The hand lightly shook the flash of blood.
The flash of blood turned back into a Card.
The Card depicted the Martyr's Palace Lord. Her eyes were still closed, there wasn't a single trace of joy from being saved on her face, only a sense of hesitation and anxiety.
The hand put the Card away.
It was now that the owner of the hand spoke:
"Didn't we say that we wouldn't attack each other anymore?"
Gu Qing Shan.
He flew down and stood in front of Dugu Feng.
Dugu Feng's expression wasn't good, only coldly staring at him.
For a while, neither of them said anything.
Gu Qing Shan seemed to have recalled something and lightly twitched in the void of space.
Instantly, a blood-colored Card appeared in his hand.
He flipped through it a few times, muttering to himself: "Tch, so Shroud also has a true body, and it's not a pure sealing technique. Seems like I'm really lonely …"
A Card suddenly appeared in his hand and was displayed in front of Dugu Feng.
On the Card, Shroud wielded a 7-colored spear, hovering in the air while holding a sealing technique in his other hand, seemingly ready to fight at any moment.
"Did you … already know?"
Dugu Feng asked.
Gu Qing Shan lightly waved his hand to put all the Cards away, then replied:
"Earlier, you said that I've always been saving those illusory living beings … that's actually incorrect"
"How so?" Dugu Feng asked.
"— — they are real"
Gu Qing Shan displayed a tired smile and spoke with a hoarse voice: "Can you just let them go?"
Dugu Feng paused briefly, then replied: "That's not like you, Gu Qing Shan. Although you were born from living beings, you already have a life and a soul. You are yourself and have never interacted with the real them"
The real … them …
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts turned, but she was talking about something else: "Back then, after falling into the void of space, all the evil demons were enduring the torment of life and death within Primal Chaos, but you managed to escape from the attacks of Primal Chaos, created your own world, then retaliated. You turned the infinite worlds into countless parallel worlds, withstanding the attacks of the Apocalypse in place of the evil demons, slowly whittling away the power of Primal Chaos"
"But that was useless, Primal Chaos is still Primal Chaos" Dugu Feng replied.
"That was very useful" Gu Qing Shan continued: "Through these means, you managed to understand the power of the Apocalypse, even creating your own Apocalypse — — - the very first Apocalypse. You wanted to use the Apocalypse to fight against Primal Chaos"
"It was still useless, if my subordinates had succeeded, they wouldn't still be trapped within Primal Chaos" Dugu Feng coldly replied.
"How is it useless? You won against the Four Saints Era of living beings, otherwise, you would have already been completely defeated by the time the Four Saints Era was born "Gu Qing Shan replied.
"That's only your own imagination" Dugu Feng replied.
"I've seen the very first Apocalypse, as well as been to Primal Chaos and the Ruined Tomb. I saw how you were living a life worse than death, and I even found another clue"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan took out five Cards from the void of space and held them in her hand.
A few people appeared on the five cards.
Luo Bingli, Dugu Feng, Dugu Qiong, Qin Xiaolou, and Xie Shuang Yan.
"The Apostles …"
Dugu Feng muttered in a low voice with an annoyed expression.
Gu Qing Shan put the Cards away and replied: "That's right, they borrowed the Sea of Blood to turn into heroic spirits and personally descend upon the void, wanting to defeat the evil demons in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, they didn't expect the evil demons to have already taken control of the infinite parallel worlds and created their own parallel shadows, grasping their weaknesses and using the tamed power of the Apocalypse to attack them — — - say, can you give Dugu Feng back to me?"
He put the other Cards away, leaving only Dugu Feng's Card behind.
There was a line of text on the Card:
[Demonized, still alive]
Dugu Feng went silent for a while before replying: "It's too late"
Gu Qing Shan appeared regretful and said: "Very well, now that you don't have to die, and you don't have to fight against Primal Chaos, why don't you just leave?"
Dugu Feng replied: "We've endured the attacks of Primal Chaos, gone through countless years of suffering within the void, finally reaching the point where we can win against them, how could we not take revenge?"
His tone softened as he spoke with a gentle voice: "Gu Qing Shan, there is no need for you to worry. When the Six Saints gather, all living beings who participated in the creation of the ultimate echelon have manifested within the Samsara, becoming your comrades"
"And then?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Dugu Feng reached his hand out and said: "Give me the living beings' heroic spirit Cards, I'll destroy them"
"You think I'll agree?" Gu Qing Shan scowled.
Dugu Feng solemnly replied: "Gu Qing Shan, once I destroy their heroic spirit bodies, they will forget their true past and forever remain by your side, unable to return to their original worlds"
He stared at Gu Qing Shan and quickly continued: "This way, I'll have my revenge, and you'll be able to keep your comrades, wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?"
Gu Qing Shan lowered her gaze, seemingly thinking about something.
Dugu Feng sighed and replied: "You are only an ultimate technique, when you kill me, you will also turn into nothingness …"
"If those living beings are allowed to win, their heroic spirits will all return to the void, to where they truly belong — — - no one will remember you, is that the pitiful fate you wish for?"
"Gu Qing Shan, why are you fighting for their sake?"
On the sea of blood.
A moment of silence.
Neither of them said anything else.
Dugu Feng didn't rush her either, only looking at Gu Qing Shan with a calm expression.
Gu Qing Shan lightly reached her hand out, drawing a Card from the void of space.
One.
Two.
Four.
He looked at the Card in his hand.
Anna, Su Cher, Jang Young-ho, Ye Fei Li, Lola, Xiu Xiu.
And Bali, Meow, Crow, Buttercup, Li Yang, Zhi Luo …
Too many people, countless living beings, they created the final sequence, then personally turned into heroic spirit Cards to enter the Blood Sea, manifesting in the void of space, all for the sake of defeating the evil demons.
Victory …
Evil demons.
Gu Qing Shan clenched the Card in her hand and slowly looked up: "Life and death is a small matter … even if I'm forgotten by everyone …"
"I will also fight for the wishes of the living beings"
