Since no one asked him anything, Gu Qing Shan took advantage of the darkness to fly away.
He quickly returned to the patch of grass.
This was a secluded area at the foot of the mountain, at the back of the mountain range. If the two of them didn't have a mission, no one would have noticed this place.
Releasing his inner sight to check, it was still the same as when he left, there was no one around.
Stabbing the Earth Sword into the ground, Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag, took out a Spirit Replenishing Pill and swallowed two.
Then he sat down, crossed his legs, silently used the hand seal and began his breakthrough.
A mystical spirit energy wave came from his body, forming a special connection with heaven and earth.
This was the sign of breaking through a realm.
「 What are you doing? 」 the Earth Sword couldn't help but ask.
"I'm facing a Tribulation" Gu Qing Shan answered.
「 Ascension realm Tribulation? Here?! 」 no matter how calm the Earth Sword was, it couldn't believe it.
"Ah, yes"
「 Did you go mad during your cultivation? 」
"I didn't"
The Earth Sword circled around Gu Qing Shan, but didn't notice anything wrong.
It then spoke with an echoing voice: 「 The Ascension realm Tribulation lasts for one day and one night, the longest Tribulation among all realms, and this place is very close to the enemy's camp — — are you sure you want to breakthrough here? 」
"I'm not really facing a Tribulation, I just have something to discuss with a few special friends" Gu Qing Shan explained.
The Earth Sword still couldn't understand, but it didn't ask and only silently watched.
Gu Qing Shan once again entered his Tribulation state.
Very quickly, his spirit energy wave became filled with a mystical rhythm again.
Shen Wu world's heaven and earth had formed a special connection with him.
Not too long later.
In the dark void of space, a monster suddenly appeared.
This monster's head was filled with eyes, but other than the eyes, there was only a large, ferocious mouth.
Sensing a cultivator's Tribulation, the Hundred-Eyed Monster came to see if it could take advantage of him.
「 Smells so good, smells so good 」
It stared at Gu Qing Shan, drooling.
The Earth Sword automatically flew up and swung.
The Hundred-Eyed Monster screamed in pain, then disappeared.
Right after, another monster with a beast's body and a human face appeared.
The Earth sword flew up and slashed again.
For a time, no more monsters appeared from the void.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly said: "Don't kill them too quickly, it won't be good if you scare them"
「 What exactly are you trying to do? 」 the Earth sword asked in a resounding voice.
"To make friends" Gu Qing Shan said.
The Earth sword couldn't help but circle around him again: 「 Strange, you haven't become demonized, so why are you acting so strangely today? 」
The Earth sword continued to sense and asked: 「 You're only in a state of breaking through, you haven't actually used your spirit energy to break through? 」
"Exactly."
"Why?"
"Lure them out."
"Lure them out?"
"Yes, it's hard to explain right now, you'll understand in a bit" Gu Qing Shan said.
The next moment, his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands. "They're finally here."
From the void of space, a beautiful Heavenly Enchantress flew down.
Her clothes were half unbuttoned, her willowy waist swayed slightly as she gently flew to Gu Qing Shan's side.
"Ahaha, a handsome young man about to break through to Ascended realm, what a surprise" the Tianma giggled.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Gu Qing Shan, may I know your name?" Gu Qing Shan politely asked.
"Facing a Tribulation is so boring, come play with big sis, big sis has a lot of things to teach you" the Tianma smiled and casually swung her sleeves.
A faintly discernible pink mist spread in all directions.
The mist slowly enveloped Gu Qing Shan.
The Tianma smiled satisfyingly and slowly walked towards Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan didn't do anything.
Seeing that, the Tianma whispered: "Don't worry, it won't hurt too much, it'll be over in a bit"
A second before she acted, the Earth sword flashed.
The Tianma's hands fell to the ground.
She screamed in pain, hurriedly trying to escape into the void of space.
The Earth sword appeared again.
"Leave her alive!" Gu Qing Shan shouted in a low voice.
The Earth sword stopped and silently rested on the Tianma's neck.
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief and told the Tianma: "Don't worry, just become friends with me and have a chat, then you can leave"
The Tianma opened her eyes wide, doubting her ears.
"Just now, you said you wanted to become friends with me?" she even forgot about the pain and asked.
"That's right"
"You know who I am?"
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
The Tianma rolled her eyes, ignored the sword on her neck and sat down next to Gu Qing Shan.
She leaned into Gu Qing Shan's chest and asked: "Young man, do you like me?"
Gu Qing Shan smiled, but his voice was low: "If you try anything funny again, I'll take your life just the same"
As soon as he released his killing intent, the Tianma didn't dare to stick to him anymore.
The Tianma retracted her alluring look and looked down at her own arms.
She had grown out two more arms.
But the arms on the ground were gone.
"What exactly do you want?" the Tianma looked at the strange person in front of her and asked.
"I know you have a leader, most likely a Saint Lord of the Visible Tianma level, can you help me call her here?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The Tianma looked at him, thinking that she heard wrong.
In her not-so-long life, she had traveled through many worlds and seen many strange things, but what happened today had already surpassed her understanding.
"You want to meet the Demon King yourself?" the Tianma asked.
"That's right, I'll have to trouble you to pull some strings" Gu Qing Shan said.
"There's nothing wrong here, right?" the Tianma pointed at her head and asked.
"I'm fine, I sincerely want to meet your master" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Among Tianma, low-ranked Tianma were considered the personal belongings of high-ranked Tianma, without any autonomy.
Low-ranked Tianma had to call high-ranked Tianma 'master'.
"Why do you want to meet her?" The Tianma glanced at the sword on her neck and added: "You know, if I tell her something like that, she'll think that I'm making fun of her"
She couldn't help but shiver and said: "She'll definitely torture me for a few hundred years, then kill me both in body and soul"
Gu Qing Shan tapped her Inventory Bag, took out the Tianma vase, and held it in her hand.
From inside the vase, a faint female singing could be heard.
The singing was faint, distant, yet close, if one listened carefully, they would fall into a trance of oblivion.
"This thing can probably make her not kill you" Gu Qing Shan said.
Looking at the vase, the Tianma couldn't move her eyes away.
"This is the Tianma's Pond of Vitality, there's no mistaking this" she muttered.
The Tianma abruptly stood up and said: "I'll go meet master right now and tell her your request"
"But master's power is too great, it'll be very difficult for her to descend into this world, she might not be able to come herself"
"Then what do we do?"
"Perhaps she'll send one of her trusted subordinates"
"That's fine as well, please" Gu Qing Shan gestured for the Earth sword to move away.
The Tianma flew up and suddenly disappeared.
After she left, the Earth sword asked: 「 You want to ally with the Tianma to deal with a Virtualized realm cultivator? 」
"Not exactly, I'm just asking a tiger for its skin" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The Earth sword asked: 「 Don't you think that the Tianma are different species, while cultivators are the same species?
"Different species or not, it doesn't matter" Gu Qing Shan muttered, "no matter who wants to swallow these two worlds, even if they're the Emperor himself, I'll break their teeth"
Not too long after, the night sky started to tremble.
The Tianma was the first to land and spoke with a nervous expression: "They're here"
"Thank you" Gu Qing Shan stood up.
A gentle glow flashed for a split second.
A female singing voice came from the void of space.
This time, it was no longer a faintly discernible voice. Instead, it was a song that could be heard clearly.
However, the words weren't human, but the Tianma's language.
After singing for a bit, 12 translucent pink flowers appeared from the void of space.
The flowers bloomed.
12 alluring Tianma stood in the middle of the flowers.
They were softly singing, gracefully descending from the sky.
The 11 Tianma came in front of Gu Qing Shan, bowed in unison, then retreated to stand on both sides.
The Tianma from before was bowing, respectfully leading a black-clothed girl forward.
Shadows were being emitted from the back of this black-clothed girl.
These shadows were screaming and howling in pain, as if they were being tortured.
The shadows danced in the air, trying their best to escape from her back.
