It was already late at night.
The mountain valley was filled with cold mist and silence.
Gu Qing Shan and Ilya stood in the middle of the empty mountain valley, looking around blankly.
As soon as they reached the mountain valley, all traces of the demonic army disappeared.
But there wasn't even a single demonic army here.
"An army of 100,000 disappearing into thin air, that's impossible" Gu Qing Shan commented.
"I also think that it's impossible, this is the lost world of the Old Gods, even the demonic army has to obey the Law of Divinity. Not to mention, most of them were created from the disintegration of Entropy Ghosts, so they have to obey the basic Law of this world, they can't just appear or disappear into thin air" Ilya commented.
The two of them had already searched through the entire mountain valley, but still couldn't find any new clues.
Ilya scowled: "I have a bad feeling about this"
"I agree"
Gu Qing Shan replied.
He released his inner sight and carefully searched through every inch of the mountain valley.
Even after all the rocks, trees, and dirt had been searched, Gu Qing Shan still couldn't find anything.
Ilya said: "Seems like I'll have to use a special method"
As she said this, she took out a bronze mirror with carved patterns.
She arranged the mirror on the ground and spoke with a serious expression: "Mirror, please tell me, during the last 200 breaths, did you hear any sound passing by here?"
The mirror remained silent.
Ilya scowled and muttered: "How troublesome …"
She thought for a bit, then asked: "Mirror, please tell me, during the last 1000 breaths, did you hear any sound passing by here?"
A low voice came from the mirror, "Searching for the sound of the last 1000 breaths. You will need to pay 1735 units of Divine Power."
Divine power?
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised and looked at Ilya.
Only to see that Ilya was a bit troubled.
She still hasn't fully recovered from her wounds, so it's not worth it to use the remaining Divine power just to search for some unknown information.
If she finds any important information, that would be a blessing.
But if she doesn't find anything valuable after searching, that would be a huge loss.
Just as she was hesitating, Gu Qing Shan walked over and asked, "You want godly power? One thousand seven hundred and thirty-five units will do? "
「 Indeed, 1735 units of Divine power are required to activate the Time Echo Search 」 the magic mirror replied.
"Let me."
Gu Qing Shan placed her hand on the magic mirror.
Ilya slapped his hand away and warned, "You mustn't. The divine power of all living beings is limited. With your strength, it's impossible for you to reach the upper limit of 1735 units of divine power. You'll die right away."
"Don't worry, I'm quite talented when it comes to divine power," explained Gu Qing Shan.
Ilya was stunned.
Gifted?
There was such a person?
Gu Qing Shan placed her hand on the magic mirror again.
The magic mirror asked, "Are you sure you want to pay 1735 units of divine power? Don't blame me if you die. "
"I'll pay"
Following Gu Qing Shan's voice, his Soul Points value on the War God UI changed.
[1000 Soul Points has been deducted from you]
[Your current Soul Points value is: Gu Qing Shan glanced at it and nodded.
After deducting the odd number, the remaining Soul Points value was a large number.
It wasn't a waste for me to spend so much effort to kill the ghost army.
Having received enough divine power, the magic mirror immediately let out a series of noises.
Gu Qing Shan and Ilya stood in front of the magic mirror, carefully listening.
It's a mirror, but I can only hear some sounds …
Gu Qing Shan was surprised: "Why are there only sounds and no images?"
"The magic mirror's ability to search for sound is already quite good, but it's extremely difficult to search for images of the past, and it's very rare for such a treasure to appear in the real world" Ilya explained.
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
For some reason, he suddenly recalled the first time he met the Hundred Flowers Fairy.
At the time, to verify whether he was telling the truth or not, the Hundred Flowers Fairy used a Divine Skill.
[Void Spirit Seeker]
Using Gu Qing Shan's badge as a medium, the Hundred Flowers Fairy was able to see the entire process of Gu Qing Shan's battle.
Even the people around him, whether they were dead or alive, could be seen clearly.
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
A treasure from the Mystic Zones of the 900 million World Layers couldn't even compare to a single Divine Skill from Shifu?
Now that I think about it, every single one of Shifu's Divine Skills aren't as simple as they seem.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, he heard clear noises coming from the magic mirror.
He quickly gathered his thoughts and seriously listened.
At first, the sound of running could be heard from the magic mirror, mixed with the sound of crashing into the ground, as well as anxious screams.
After a while, the noises quieted down, leaving only the occasional screams of the ghosts.
Finally, a loud voice in the ghost language resounded throughout the entire magic mirror.
「 All troops, begin evacuation 」
After this voice rang out, there was almost no other sound.
The two of them exchanged looks of disbelief and continued to wait.
But after that, the magic mirror no longer spoke.
It wasn't until Gu Qing Shan and Ilya were about to give up that a few inaudible noises could be heard from the magic mirror.
A woman's faint sigh could be heard.
Such a voice resounded in the silent valley, causing both Gu Qing Shan and Ilya to be surprised.
This is clearly a place where the ghost army is gathered, why would there be a female human sighing?
A few moments later, a faint singing voice resounded in the gloomy valley.
「 Far away, unthinkable, once upon a time I dreamt of it, dreaming that it was by my side, suddenly feeling like it was in a foreign land … 」
The singing voice slowly faded away.
At this point, all the noises went silent.
"Humanity's common language" Ilya deduced.
"It can't be a human, demonized can't enter this world" Gu Qing Shan refuted.
"Then, who exactly is this woman?" Ilya asked.
Gu Qing Shan was speechless.
With only a few lines of singing, how am I supposed to determine her identity?
"Not good, if that's the case, there's still not enough information" he muttered.
Ilya crouched down, placed her hand on the ground, and chanted: "O 'Mother Earth, under your protection, grant me a mountain peak that bears witness to the light of the sky and the wind!"
As soon as she finished chanting, the ground of the valley began to tremble.
In just a few moments, mountains began to rise all the way to the sky.
A grand and endless mountain range appeared out of thin air, standing between heaven and earth.
The place where Ilya and Gu Qing Shan were standing was the peak of a dangerous mountain.
"There are no traps or structures within 3000 meters of this place, it's extremely clean"
Ilya sighed and reported.
Gu Qing Shan took out a formation plate and quickly tapped it with both hands.
[Supreme Anti-Ghost Formation], activate!
A bright yellow glow began to spread from the peak of the mountain.
Suddenly, a short moan of pain was heard.
Gu Qing Shan and Ilya's figures flickered and appeared where the sound came from.
It was a large rock.
"This rock was originally underground, it only appeared on the surface of the mountain because of my spell" Ilya quickly explained.
Gu Qing Shan swung her sword.
The rock broke apart. A jet-black shadow rolled out from the rock, lying on the ground moaning.
This was an illusory monster, its entire body exuded an illusory black aura, only its head showed its ugly and cruel appearance.
A Huang Quan Soul-devouring Revenant!
"Seems like it was hiding inside a rock underground, if your formation didn't make it feel even more pain, it wouldn't have made a sound" Ilya commented.
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
When he first arrived in this world, he once saw such a monster.
At the time, this monster was attached to a corpse, so Gu Qing Shan had to use the power of Lightning to trap it.
"A Huang Quan monster, can I communicate with it?" the Earth sword couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"Wait a minute" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He walked forward, crouched down in front of the monster and carefully checked.
The monster's limbs were all broken, it was heavily wounded and was about to die.
The wounds were obviously caused by the sword-infused wind — — as if it was just grazed by the sword-infused wind.
Who would've thought it would be lucky enough to survive until now.
「 Light, it hurts, take your light back … 」 the Soul-devouring Revenant moaned.
Sensing that it was about to die, Gu Qing Shan retracted her anti-ghost formation.
It was now that the Soul-devouring Revenant stopped its moaning.
Her sword was pointed at the monster's forehead.
A blinding flash of lightning exuded from the tip of the sword, carrying enough killing intent to destroy everything.
"Come, tell us, why are you the only one here?" Gu Qing Shan pointed her sword at the Soul-devouring Revenant and asked.
The power of Lightning caused the Soul-devouring Revenant to feel extremely uncomfortable, but it still showed a cruel smile.
「 I just didn't want to be eaten by other monsters, so I hid myself, I didn't think I'd be found like that 」
"Then tell me what exactly happened, I promise to find a way to heal your wounds" Gu Qing Shan said.
「 It's too late 」 the Soul-devouring Revenant shook its head, 「 everything is over, you're also done for 」
Saying so, the Soul-devouring Revenant scattered into black fog and slowly disappeared.
