A thin layer of ice gave off an eerie blue glow.
A bone-chilling sensation began to rise from beneath Gu Qing Shan's feet.
His spirit energy couldn't stop this chill at all, exactly the same as when he was on the frozen mountain.
Gu Qing Shan crouched down and carefully observed.
An endless eerie blue.
An endless layer of ice.
How do I get past the ice and enter the world below?
Gu Qing Shan knocked on the ice.
The ice remained still.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then heavily punched the ice.
A small piece of the ice began to give off a faint golden glow.
Mystical golden runes appeared on the ice and began to spread.
Immediately, more golden runes began to appear.
A faint sense of danger began to permeate the air.
Two lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI.
[Divine Might: World-sealing Divine Technique, attempting to activate]
[Please stop your threatening attacks immediately, otherwise, with your current strength, you will be instantly killed]
Gu Qing Shan's hairs stood on end.
Recalling what happened to the Dead Soul Demon King, Gu Qing Shan hurriedly pulled his hand back and used Presence Concealment to completely conceal his presence.
Having lost the source of threat, the golden light stopped spreading.
After a while, the golden light faded away.
Everything returned to normal.
Gu Qing Shan finally sighed in relief.
"From the looks of it, this is a protective measure set up by the Old Gods, capable of preventing outside invasion" Laura commented.
"I think so as well" Gu Qing Shan agreed.
In his vision, lines of glowing text continued to appear on the War God UI.
[You've explored a completely new world, if you want to know this world's secrets, please continue your efforts]
[Attention: This is a world that has never been explored or recorded before, the War God System does not know the situation inside]
[You must think of a way to enter and obtain the relevant information]
Reading through it, Gu Qing Shan helplessly shook his head.
If this place is a civilization left behind by the Old Gods, then the Chao Yin sword was also forged by the Old Gods …
Wielding the Chao Yin sword, he tried to use [Even a sea of bitterness will pass] on the ice.
The ice shell retreated like seawater.
A crack large enough for Gu Qing Shan and Lola appeared on the ice shell.
Lola looked at this scene in shock.
From where the two of them were standing, above them was a boundless ocean, and beneath their feet was a shell of ice covered in divine might.
However, before Gu Qing Shan's sword, both the ocean and the ice shell opened up a path without hesitation.
Lola stared at the sword in Gu Qing Shan's hand, her eyes shining brightly. She couldn't move her eyes away for a moment.
To be able to control the Ancient God's defensive barrier, it must be a weapon that the Ancient God had meticulously forged.
This sword was too eye-catching.
He would look cool holding it.
"Your sword is quite useful. When can I exchange it with you?"
Lola asked in a negotiating tone.
"I can't trade this. To me, a sword is my livelihood." Gu Qing Shan explained.
"I can show you a few Divine Armaments, will you consider it?"
"I really can't trade. If someone else asked me that, I would've taught them a lesson already" Gu Qing Shan lightly flicked Lola's forehead and smiled.
If someone else was greedy for his sword, he would've already swung it.
But Lola was only a little girl, she wasn't greedy at all, she only thought it was fun.
Not to mention, she didn't know what a sword meant to a sword cultivator. Gu Qing Shan didn't mind arguing with a little kid.
"Fine, stingy man"
Lola rubbed her forehead and begrudgingly said.
The two of them went through the crack.
They had entered this world left behind by the Old Gods.
In the sky.
There wasn't any strong wind.
Their surroundings were silent.
Under the vast sky, they could see several cities that were quite far away from each other.
These cities gave off a faint blue light, as if they were made of ice, but there wasn't a single bit of cold air coming from them.
Gu Qing Shan swung his sword and canceled [Even a sea of bitterness will pass].
The ice shell behind his back instantly closed up.
Lola hid in Gu Qing Shan's chest, took out a piece of black cloth, and covered her eyes.
"Can we go down a bit faster, I'm scared at such a high altitude"
"You're already a lot calmer than before"
"Adults are always forced by life, what can I do?"
"Alright" Gu Qing Shan smiled and said, "I'll go down as fast as I can"
He chose the nearest city, moved his body, and flew down with all his might.
His speed was extremely fast, occasionally using [Ground Shrink] while flying to cover a huge distance in the blink of an eye.
In just a few moments, Gu Qing Shan lightly landed on the ground.
"That's enough" Gu Qing Shan looked around and said.
"Ah? That fast? "Lola couldn't believe it.
Lola took off the black cloth in front of her eyes and sighed: "It feels good to see the ground again"
She jumped down from Gu Qing Shan's chest and stepped on the ground.
The ground was solid and thick, but it gave off a faint blue hue.
Looking around, the entire city wasn't made from ice.
The faint blue light in the sky was actually a glass-like substance that formed the entire city, giving off a faint blue light.
The location that Gu Qing Shan chose was very secluded, almost at the very edge of the city. Furthermore, it was already midnight, so there wasn't any commotion around.
Due to her unfamiliarity with the environment, as well as the fact that she had already triggered the Old God's defensive measures, Gu Qing Shan remained cautious and didn't directly release her inner sight to cover the entire city.
Lola observed her surroundings.
Hm …
Not too far away, a man and a woman were hugging each other tightly.
Both of them looked very young, not much different from normal humans, only their skin was a bit light blue.
Lola hurriedly turned around and spoke apologetically: "We're sorry, we've been rude to disturb you"
Gu Qing Shan stood still without moving.
He had already noticed the two people in front of him. He originally wanted to talk to them, but it seems that's no longer necessary.
Gu Qing Shan silently picked up Lola.
At the same time, three flying swords appeared from the void of space behind him, ready to attack.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing him like that, Lola also became anxious.
"They're dead" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Dead?"
Lola was stunned and carefully observed the two of them.
The two of them were hugging each other with expressions of fear and despair on their faces.
Obviously, they knew what kind of fate they were about to face.
"Something … doesn't feel right"
Gu Qing Shan scowled.
His spirit sense told him that a heavy shadow was approaching.
In the past, unless it was a major battle or a desperate situation, he wouldn't have this kind of spirit sense.
Looking at the two hugging corpses, Gu Qing Shan became more cautious.
Not good — — -
Without hesitation, he tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a formation plate.
This was a top-level formation plate that he took from Guang Yang sect's secret room in the Suspended world, one of Wang Hong Dao's personal stashes.
In the Suspended world, Gu Qing Shan's greatest harvest was the treasures he found in Guang Yang sect's secret room.
Of course, there was also his level of formation arrangement.
To create the Two-world warp formation plate and escape from that world, Gu Qing Shan had raised his level of formation arrangement to the highest level possible.
With Gu Qing Shan's current level of formation arrangement, this formation plate was the perfect tool for him to use to his full potential.
His hands quickly moved around the formation plate and quickly arranged a common defensive formation within a radius of a few dozen meters.
Following that, he arranged defensive formations against demonic beasts, demons, flying swords, spells, Thaumaturgy, and ghosts.
He had arranged every top-level defensive formation in the Suspended world at least once.
Other than the special concealment formations, whenever a formation was successfully arranged, a light would appear before slowly fading away.
Under Gu Qing Shan's control, the light on the formation plate became as bright as a flame, enveloping the entire area with layers upon layers of light.
"Won't it be too eye-catching, it'll draw too much attention" Lola hurriedly asked.
"I'm actually planning to slowly explore this world" Gu Qing Shan's hands continued to arrange formations and smiled bitterly: "But for now, I need to worry about my life first before anything else"
Lola was a bit surprised.
She stared closely at Gu Qing Shan's movements and noticed the ominous tone in his voice.
Finally, all the formations were arranged.
Gu Qing Shan stood at the center of the formation, silently sensing it.
After a while, he suddenly turned around and looked at the void of space 20 meters away.
That was the innermost layer of formation, specifically used to counter ghosts and ghosts.
"Who is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
A cold breeze came.
But no one answered him.
The anti-ghost formation gave off a blinding light.
This meant that the defensive formation was being heavily pressured.
Something was trying to get through the formation and get inside!
"What exactly is that thing!?" Lola exclaimed in shock.
From the transparent void of space, a gigantic ghost's face appeared.
Its entire head was about the size of a 5-story building, pressing against the anti-ghost formation, trying its best to get inside.
Through the formation, Gu Qing Shan could see its head full of green fur, sharp fangs, as well as its skull that was covered in strange runes.
The ghost stared straight at Gu Qing Shan with its pair of pitch-black eyes.
Bam!
In an instant, the anti-ghost formation was broken.
Gu Qing Shan's eyebrows twitched as he quickly tapped the formation plate.
Sha sha sha!
In the time it took for a spark to fly off a flint, he once again set up three layers of ghost-repelling formations.
Even so, Gu Qing Shan's hands didn't stop and continued to arrange the formations.
This was too strange.
The other formations didn't react at all, only the anti-ghost formation managed to stop it for a bit.
Facing such a situation, Gu Qing Shan arranged 36 Ghost Repelling Formations at once!
As soon as the monster broke through the first formation, it was about to charge forward, but was stopped by another formation.
The ghost was clearly annoyed.
