Gu Qing Shan flew faster and faster, quickly disappearing into the horizon with a sonic boom.
Zhang Zong Yang stood in the sky, not giving chase.
His emotions were complicated.
At this point, the Holo-Brain in his chest pocket lit up as Impartial Goddess' voice came.
[General, all weapons have been disabled]
[The Clown's speed is too fast, there is a 91% chance that we won't be able to catch up to it]
[Preparing a fleet of combat shuttles to give chase]
"Fine" Zhang Zong Yuan sighed, saying: "This is an unprecedented existence, even if we catch up to it, we won't be able to gain anything"
Impartial Goddess was waiting for him to say that.
The entire capital's garrison, even the warships in the sky, were all preparing to give chase.
But as soon as the Martial Saint said that, all the machines shut down — — as if they were already prepared.
But Martial Saint Zhang Zong Yuan didn't know that much.
He looked down at the book in his hand.
Is this really a martial arts scripture from another world?
He flipped the cover of the book and looked inside.
As soon as he did, he couldn't pay attention to anything else.
After reading through the first page, he couldn't help but mutter: "So there's such a thing …"
Zhang Zong Yang stood in the sky, letting the Holo-Brain send countless messages, ring, and then disappear.
All the way until nightfall, the Martial Saint's eyes never left the martial arts scripture.
On the other side.
Gu Qing Shan found a secluded area and took off the Murder Clown armor.
"Hoh, finally filled up this hole" Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.
[Sir, Ye Fei Li has returned to the graveyard] Impartial Goddess reported.
"Got it"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
There are some things that I need to figure out myself.
This was the first time in his two lives that he's seen the undead in Reality.
If the undead exist …
Then, does reincarnation exist in this world?
Or does people also go to Huang Quan after they die?
He checked the direction and flew towards the graveyard.
A few moments later.
The graveyard.
Ye Fei Li was sitting on the stairs in front of the graveyard, not going in.
"Why aren't you going in?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"It's not time yet, I can't hear her voice," Ye Fei Li said.
"How much longer?"
"Ten hours."
"Since it's still so early," Gu Qing Shan looked him up and down and suggested, "It's not good for you to look so disheveled. Go back, take a shower, and dress properly before coming back."
Ye Fei Li looked down at herself.
His shirt was nowhere to be found.
His body was splattered with bright red blood.
His hands were also covered in congealed black blood.
It was like coming out of a murder scene — in fact, it was.
"You're right. This will scare her." Ye Fei Li agreed.
"Let's go back first," he said.
"You go back first, I still have something to do" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Alright, I'll come alone from now on."
Ye Fei Li stood up to leave.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to ask you a question, you have to answer it seriously" Gu Qing Shan said very seriously.
"Go ahead" seeing his serious expression, Ye Fei Li also became serious.
"When you could hear her crying, did you hear anything else?"
"Anything else? Nothing at all "
"Nothing at all?" Gu Qing Shan asked further.
Looking at Gu Qing Shan's serious expression, Ye Fei Li suddenly realized something.
This was a very important question, perhaps even more important than this matter itself.
He tried his best to recall and finally said: "That's right, other than her voice, there seemed to be … occasional noises, but I didn't pay attention to them, so they slowly disappeared"
The two of them went silent.
If Ye Fei Li didn't hear anything else because of his conscious rejection, then there might be other ghosts in this world.
But if Ye Fei Li really only heard his girlfriend's crying, then there was only a single ghost in this world.
No matter which one it is, it'll reveal another side of this world.
In both the past and present life, no human has ever come into contact with this side.
Because no human has ever awakened such a God's Chosen Skill.
In this world, there were a few spirit linked animals that did a lot of strange and inexplicable things.
Some even guessed that they were able to communicate with other worlds.
Perhaps it was because Ye Fei Li wasn't a human, but a Man Killer Fiend that the spirit linked God's Chosen Skill awakened on him.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then said: "Next time you can hear her voice, try and see if you can hear other voices"
"Alright, I'll try" Ye Fei Li said.
"There's one more important thing"
"What is it?"
"Help me ask your girlfriend a question"
"What question?"
"Why did she stay here after she died and not go anywhere else?"
"… Alright"
"When I'm done, I'll come find you and we'll ask her more"
"What do you want to do?" Ye Fei Li worriedly asked.
"Don't worry, I'm just trying to understand the situation" Gu Qing Shan patted his shoulder.
He continued: "If we don't know what happened, then we won't be able to help her"
"That's true …" Ye Fei Li nodded.
Ye Fei Li then asked: "When will you come back?"
"If everything goes smoothly, I'll probably need a day and a night to finish what I'm doing" Gu Qing Shan answered.
"Understood, I'll wait for you to come back" Ye Fei Li said.
"Alright"
Two streaks of light flew to the sky, heading in two different directions.
…
In the night sky, Gu Qing Shan was flying.
While flying, he asked: "How long has this rain been going on for?"
[17 hours, the area of the rain has spread to the ocean] Impartial Goddess answered.
"In other words, the entire planet is raining?"
"Yes sir"
Gu Qing Shan sighed, feeling a bit of a headache.
Before the Game of Eternal's descent, the rain only covered the human settlements.
But this time, even the ocean is raining.
The cold rain, sometimes heavy, sometimes light, has never stopped.
"Fine, while it's still raining, I'll have to deal with my own matters first"
"Please help me find a secluded place within the Federation's borders" he said.
[Sir, the destination has been set as the Great Masala Desert]
"Let's go"
An hour later.
Gu Qing Shan stood in the middle of the desolate desert.
He looked up at the sky.
Lightning illuminated the dark clouds, as the rain of ice covered the sky.
A few lines of glowing text appeared in his vision.
[The Ascended realm Tribulation is about to begin]
[Detected that the user has learned archery, swordsmanship, and unique Elemental Lightning, please choose your Dao carefully]
"I choose the sword" Gu Qing Shan answered right away.
[The Dao of the Sword is the most exclusive Dao, once the user chooses the Dao of the Sword, they must discard all other Daos]
[Are you sure you want to choose the sword?]
"Yes"
[The user has chosen the Dao of the Sword]
Throughout the entire Ascended realm, a cultivator doesn't awaken a new Thaumaturgy, only their own Dao.
Once a cultivator chooses their Dao, the power of the Laws of Heaven and Earth will prove it, helping the cultivator form their own Dao.
For example, a sword cultivator who reaches Ascended realm late stage is qualified to break through to Sainted realm.
But Sword Saint is a sword cultivator's Dao, it doesn't have much to do with cultivation.
If a sword cultivator's swordsmanship isn't good enough, even if they reach Sainted realm, they might not be able to become a Sword Saint.
In the past life, Gu Qing Shan's Dao of the Sword had already reached Sword Saint level.
Unfortunately, he was only Ascended realm middle stage, so he didn't have enough EXP to break through.
That's why he didn't even qualify to break through to Sainted realm.
All players don't qualify to break through to Sainted realm.
Because in the end, the EXP would reach an astronomical number that no human could ever reach.
But in this life, Gu Qing Shan can use Soul Points to level up.
Very soon, he will awaken the Dao of the Sword Saint.
One day in the future, he will also become the first human to reach Sainted realm in Reality.
But that's all in the future.
Right now, following Gu Qing Shan's choice, lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI.
[The Ascended realm Tribulation has arrived, you must win against it to receive the Heaven's reward and search for your own Dao]
Rumble rumble!
Thunder boomed in the clouds.
This is the might of the Heavens, able to intimidate all living beings.
The Ascended realm Tribulation is at least twice as powerful as the Rejuvenation realm Tribulation.
Gu Qing Shan didn't feel anything at all.
Ever since he saw the Hundred Flowers Fairy go through both the Wind and Lightning Tribulations, he felt that the other Tribulations were too easy.
He also went through the Ascended realm Tribulation in the past life.
The most difficult part of this Tribulation is its duration.
It will last for a day and a night, testing both the cultivator's stamina and spirit.
For a long period of time, being struck by lightning non-stop is even more of a torture.
So — — -
Gu Qing Shan took out a small bag and took out a pair of wireless earphones.
He put them on.
[How about some rock music?] Impartial Goddess asked.
"No, something a bit more relaxing, a female solo or a piano piece will do" Gu Qing Shan answered.
[Understood]
The music started.
A clear female voice slowly sang, like the sound of nature.
"Xie Shuang Yan?"
[That's right, her latest album]
As they spoke, the first lightning bolt came.
Gu Qing Shan swung his sword at the Tribulation lightning.
Like stars, the lightning scattered everywhere.
"This song isn't bad" Gu Qing Shan commented.
[This is the title song] Impartial Goddess reminded her.
"So that's why"
