In the dark night.
The sound of horse hooves was like a thunderstorm.
Like a blinding halo of light, the black horse was completely enveloped.
Outside the halo, various strange noises could be heard, as if countless enemies were hiding in the darkness, whispering to each other.
The three flying swords were quickly circling around the formation.
They were constantly unleashing sword phantoms to kill the monsters that were hiding in the formation.
The three flying swords were moving too fast, like a meat grinder, harvesting the lives of the ghosts.
Not a single ghost could escape from the flying swords' slash.
Gu Qing Shan even had the time to glance at the War God UI.
Killing an Entropy Ghost gave me a considerable amount of Soul Points.
A few of the ghosts that died also gave me a decent amount of Soul Points.
Gu Qing Shan slowly calmed down and stopped paying attention to the Soul Points.
Although I gave the Earth sword 100,000 Soul Points, I just happened to kill an Entropy Ghost, so that's enough.
Right now, the Soul Points was still steadily increasing.
All of a sudden, all the formations lit up at the same time.
This meant that the number of enemies had exceeded their expectations. All the warning formations were now in a state of overload.
In the cultivation world, or even the Suspended world, for such large-scale formations to be in a state of overload, it could only mean that the war had reached its most crucial stage.
But in this lost world of the Old Gods, all large-scale formations were only meant to deal with a single ambush.
Countless wraiths were crawling outside the formation, running around it.
As if they were preparing for something.
"Be careful, they're coming!" old man Jiao loudly reminded her.
Gu Qing Shan followed the light and looked ahead.
The entire wilderness was densely packed with ghosts.
They were accumulating in numbers like a tidal wave.
A few moments later, an overwhelming tide of ghosts covered the night sky, crashing down on the black horse.
The three flying swords quickly reacted.
They turned into streaks of light and revolved around the halo of the spell formation at an extremely fast speed, continuously flying and slashing.
Groups of ghosts were sent flying by the formation.
Occasionally, there would be some lucky fish that slipped through the net, but they would be swarmed by the three flying swords and quickly dismembered.
But the balance of the battle was slowly tilting.
There were too many of them.
They completely covered dozens of layers of spiritual light formations. Even if they were cut down by the flying swords, they wouldn't give up attacking.
Under the bites of the ten thousand ghosts, the formation began to break layer by layer.
"Too many!" Lola screamed.
Gu Qing Shan softly said, "Don't worry."
Replacing [You Ji General], he changed the title of [War God] to [Talented General].
"Title: Talented General."
"Equipping this title grants the exclusive skill: Rampaging Sword Qi."
[Crisscrossing Sword Qi: Your longsword is surrounded by countless fine Sword Qi. Every time you use this skill, the Sword Qi will condense into a shadow and launch an additional attack. (Note: This title skill is limited to swords.) "
With a thought, he activated the sword art once more.
The three flying swords suddenly stopped.
They no longer dashed around in a frenzy, instead, they each sought out a powerful Yao Ghost.
Seven swords.
Seven swords.
Seven swords.
In an instant, the flying sword lit up with seven bolts of lightning.
"Lei Long!"
Gu Qing Shan let out a roar, using all of her Thunder Spiritual Force to activate her Sword Seal.
Secret Art, [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon]!
Arcs of blue and white lightning as thick as an arm erupted from the flying sword.
The blinding lightning turned into a rampaging sea of lightning, illuminating the surroundings as if it was daytime.
The blue lightning manifested into a ferocious dragon head, emerging from the tip of the sword.
Behind the dragon head, a dragon body made from both sword phantoms and lightning flew out from the flying sword.
But it wasn't over yet!
As the Thunder Dragon soared into the sky, a new Thunder Dragon leaped out from the flying sword.
Three flying swords, three [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon], under the effect of [War God Title], turned into six lightning dragons!
Boom!
The six lightning dragons circled around the light formation, wreaking havoc in the wilderness.
The horde of ghosts and demons and the demon army that covered the wilderness were instantly annihilated under the bombardment of the Heavenly Thunder.
Sensing the power of the lightning, the Yao Ghosts turned to run.
But under the pursuit of six lightning dragons, who could possibly escape?
The lightning dragons circled back and forth, killing their way through the entire wilderness.
About 10 breaths' worth of time later, the blinding blue and white lightning slowly faded away.
At this point, the surroundings were completely silent.
There were no more Yao Ghosts, no more noises.
Lola rubbed her eyes and carefully looked around.
It was supposed to be a landslide, but in the blink of an eye, all the Yao Ghosts were gone.
— — -where are the Yao Ghosts?
The tide of demonic ghosts seemed to be just an illusion or some kind of illusion.
Under the night sky, everything was silent.
"What kind of swordsmanship is that?" old man Jiao asked in a hoarse voice.
"A swordsmanship that kills Ghosts"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan felt his mouth going dry and his body feeling a bit tired.
[Seven Stars Flowing Dragon] was a powerful Secret Art.
Even with his cultivation, using three flying swords at once to unleash [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon] three times in a row still made him feel a bit overburdened.
The three flying swords returned from the wilderness, slowly drifting towards Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan waved his hand. The three flying swords silently disappeared into the void of space behind him.
He tapped his Inventory Bag again and took out a flask of liquor.
The flask was made from thousand-year-old Flame Spirit Jade, apparently this spirit jade can make the liquor even stronger.
The smooth surface of the spirit jade was casually carved with a bunch of flowers.
The flowers looked a bit sloppy, but they gave off a sense of elegance.
Even the flowers he casually carved were full of vitality and were quite interesting.
This was Qin Xiaolou's work.
The liquor was also a Hundred Flowers Medicinal Brew that Qin Xiaolou had personally gathered from all sorts of rare spirit flowers and herbs.
This flask of spirit liquor was very beneficial to cultivators, but normal people in the cultivation world wouldn't be able to drink it.
When Gu Qing Shan was still at Bai Hua sect, he used their good relationship to shamelessly ask Qin Xiaolou for a few dozen flasks.
When he returned to his original world, he gave away quite a bit as he drank, so he only had one last flask left in his hand.
… After everything here is done, it's time to go back and take a look.
Thinking about Bai Hua sect, Gu Qing Shan raised his head and drank the entire flask in one gulp.
As the strong liquor entered his throat, his entire body felt refreshed, his spirit energy surged again as if it was stimulated.
Gu Qing Shan's inner sight became a lot clearer, his spirit was shaken.
Sitting on the back of the horse, he suddenly laughed loudly and said, "Carefree!"
…
Anna was lying on her bed, also holding a flask of liquor in her hand.
The same flask, the same liquor.
She looked at the elegant flowers on the wine pot and did not say anything for a while.
One time, when she found out that Gu Qing Shan was drinking this liquor, she begged for a flask.
At this time, Anna had returned to the Church and was about to sleep in her room.
But she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.
To become stronger, I came to the Strife Zones of the 900 million World Layers.
To keep up with Gu Qing Shan's footsteps, I worked hard every day to improve my skills and strength.
The days in the warzone were tough and tough.
During the intense battles, I was always the first to step up.
During the torturous training, I also gritted my teeth and endured.
No one worked harder than I did.
Everyone thought of themselves as the most devout of believers.
But no one knew what they were doing for.
Persevere, persevere.
Finally, all of my efforts were rewarded.
Anna carefully put the flask of Bai Hua medicine away, then took out something else.
It was a small black sealed flask, as she lightly shook it, she could hear a sigh coming from inside.
The Tear of Death.
This was the treasure I received during the Church's Holy Relic awakening ceremony.
During yesterday's ceremony, a total of 8 members of the Church received the chance to awaken their Holy Relic due to their outstanding performance.
Before me, someone else awakened a new God's Chosen Skill that allowed them to transform into a blood-red bat, drawing everyone's attention.
Following that, someone else received an ancient 7-shot revolver. After Hound Deity's examination, they confirmed that this revolver was the legendary gun: [Dead Blooming Flower].
Someone else received the Holy Church's Secret Skill [Void Flight Shadow].
In other words, everyone received an unprecedented reward.
Finally, when it was my turn, I only received this small black sealed flask.
The two Deities didn't say anything on the spot, only saying that this is a Secret Medicine that can increase the body's reaction speed.
The others who also participated in the ceremony didn't pay much attention to it.
I was also very disappointed.
But when the ceremony was over and everyone left, Hound Deity and Black Crow Deity came together.
They solemnly told me to use the item inside this black flask to the best of my ability.
They said that this was an item of the Death God from the Age of Old.
In the past few ten thousand years, this item had never appeared before.
Even they didn't know why this treasure suddenly appeared and chose Anna.
Remembering the serious expressions of the two Deities, Anna felt a bit proud.
Seems like I'm quite lucky after all.
For the past 24 hours, Anna has been using her soul flame to communicate with this black flask.
And now, the time has come. The black flask can finally be unsealed.
With a gentle push, she opened the small black bottle.
A drop of black water flew out from the flask, silently floating in the air.
Following the two Deities' instructions, Anna waved her hand.
"Materialize," she lightly shouted.
A long-handled scythe of her own height appeared in her hand.
The handle of the scythe was completely black, a black skull was carved at the end of the handle.
The edge of the scythe was a burning crescent-shaped flame.
This was a weapon created from Anna's dark talent combined with her Fire Spirit.
In previous battles, she had always used this weapon to fight.
As if sensing the scythe in her hand, the drop of black water lightly moved.
It fell onto the scythe and quickly disappeared.
And then — — -
Nothing happened.
Anna held the scythe in her hand, stunned.
"What, it can't be a fake, why can't I feel anything?" she muttered in a low voice.
Boom!!!
All of a sudden, the scythe shook.
A thick black fog came from the scythe, quickly enveloping the entire blade.
The red flame on the blade disappeared.
What replaced it was a soundless burning black flame.
Strange power flowed from the black flame, as if as soon as Anna attacked, this power would be unleashed.
Many layers of mysterious black runes appeared on the long handle of the scythe. Then, the skull at the end of the long handle disappeared and was replaced by a black gem.
At this point, the scythe gave off a sense of solemnity and coldness.
The black fog didn't scatter. It drifted around the scythe, occasionally moving.
Anna froze.
This was the manifestation of his innate talent. Why did it suddenly change its appearance?
She lightly swung the scythe.
Wherever the black flame Soul Blade passed, the void of space itself was torn apart.
Chaotic, faint wind blew out from the crack in space, messing up Anna's hair.
"The space vortex … I didn't do anything, why did it open up the space vortex?"
Anna was a bit confused. …
On another side.
Deep within the Church.
Hound Deity had arrived here.
He was staring at a large statue of a Deity.
On the hand of the statue of the god, there was a crow that was completely black.
Black crow.
Hound Deity.
They were the servants of the God of Death, the Deities who spread slumber and death.
They were in the middle of a secret conversation related to Anna.
"Did you get little Anna drunk?" Black crow asked.
"Yes, it wasn't easy to infuse her, but compared to other methods, this was the simplest and most effective" Hound Deity said worriedly, "what's the result of the divination?"
"I just asked Nine Lives, it said that the result has changed, little Anna won't go to Aboul, nor will she be taken away by the [Demon King Order]"
"That's good, I don't want her to turn into an evil spirit — — - the Church already has enough evil spirits" Hound Deity sighed in relief.
"That's right, little Anna is one of us, she shouldn't be taken away by the [Demon King Order]" Black crow agreed.
"The [Demon King Order] … it's moving faster, what do we do?"
"It's not the time to act yet, all the [Orders] are hiding in the darkness, it's best for us to wait and see"
"Hm …"
