Humanity's 23rd reserve corps camp.
A middle-aged cultivator was sitting behind a table, carefully reading a jade tag.
"Zhang Xiao Yun, a loose cultivator, his ancestors have been earning cultivation resources through cooking for generations"
"During the last Desolate world invasion, everyone in his family was massacred, leaving only Zhang Xiao Yun, so he joined the army"
"The above information has been verified, please make your decision, General"
Followed by the names of the scouts responsible for intelligence.
The middle-aged cultivator put the jade tag back on the table and observed the young man in front of him.
His appearance was ordinary, and his cultivation base was ordinary.
As he was being observed, the young man appeared nervous.
… tsk, what a pitiful young man.
The middle-aged cultivator asked the deputy general next to him: "Do we not have enough cooks in our camp?"
The deputy general reported: "General, we've always lacked cooks, it was also because we didn't have enough cooks last time that led to that incident"
Hearing that, the middle-aged cultivator scowled.
Last time, all the cultivators in the camp complained about how bad spirit cooking was, causing a series of protests, some even openly fed spirit cooking to pigs.
— — -mainly because there were too many people, the cooks couldn't keep up, so the taste of the spirit cooking was naturally not as good.
The middle-aged cultivator asked: "How's his cooking skill?"
"The cooks have already tried it, they all agreed" the deputy general replied.
The General said: "Then what are you waiting for? Go and register him into the camp, he'll be able to help out today"
"Yes" the deputy general replied.
The middle-aged cultivator cleared his throat, then told the young man in front of him: "Zhang Xiao Yun, right? The entire camp's meals will depend on the few of you, make sure to pay attention after you join the camp"
"Yes" the young man clasped his fist.
"Very well, you may leave" the middle-aged cultivator waved his hand.
"Understood, General"
The young man was led away by someone else.
After dealing with this small matter, the middle-aged cultivator quickly forgot about it.
After all, he had to manage the camp's affairs, there were too many things waiting for him to deal with.
…
Gu Qing Shan was led to a certain building and patiently waited there.
He still needed a bit more time to complete a series of procedures.
After all the procedures were completed, an identity token would be made for him.
He couldn't do it without one.
Walking around the military camp without permission could result in being killed by the array at any time.
Gu Qing Shan sat there and waited. Feeling bored, she reached out and touched the edge of her cheek.
He didn't feel anything strange.
However, a line of glowing text appeared in front of him.
"Item name: Ice Cicada Silver Mask"
"Special tools."
"It's the most outstanding disguise mask created by the human race. It can even adjust one's cultivation level accordingly without anyone noticing."
"The only thing you need to be careful of is not to let the Gods keep watching you, otherwise they will notice something wrong"
Gu Qing Shan felt relieved.
This mask came from Luo Bingli.
She had personally said that after Gu Qing Shan wore this mask, as long as she was not stared at by the gods for a long time, there would be no problem.
The place where Gu Qing Shan was located was the most remote reserve camp.
Gods usually only appeared in the middle of the army and the vanguard. They would never come to this kind of reserve.
Taking a step back, even if a Divinity came, out of the most basic of respect, the military camp wouldn't let a cook meet a Divinity.
This identity was too safe.
He was currently using Zhang Xiao Yun's appearance, and his cultivation was suppressed to Golden Core realm.
Walking among the crowd, he was the most inconspicuous existence.
This was all thanks to the Ice Cicada Silver Mask.
Gu Qing Shan put his hand on his Inventory Bag again and carefully sensed the situation inside.
There was a jade wall inside the Inventory Bag.
He couldn't help but recall the scene before he left.
In the Sword Abyss, when Luo Bingli was about to take Gu Qing Shan away, Xie Gu Hong called out to them.
"Qing Shan, I've prepared everything you need for cultivation, but there's something else I need to give you" Xie Gu Hong said.
"Yes, Master" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Xie Gu Hong tapped his Inventory Bag and took something out.
Oom!
Even the Sword Abyss was slightly shaken.
As Gu Qing Shan looked closer, she saw that it was a large white rectangular rock that was 8 people tall and 20 people long.
This rectangular white boulder was simply too mighty and tall. Its entire body exuded a faint sword intent.
"Master, what kind of treasure tool is this? Why is it so large? "Gu Qing Shan asked.
"My disciple, this is not a treasure tool, it is a super-large jade tag that contains all of the sword cultivation scriptures I've compiled, it will help you reach Great Accomplishment as a Sword Saint and break through to the next realm. If you focus on studying and cultivating, you will be able to break through to your master's current realm"
Looking up at the super-large jade tag, Gu Qing Shan felt a sense of excitement.
Finally — — -
I've finally obtained the most extraordinary sword inheritance from the Age of Old!
"Master, this thing is very precious, I'm afraid — — -"
"It's fine, I've already set up a soul vessel seal on the jade tag, other than you, if anyone tries to read this jade tag, the jade tag will immediately be destroyed"
"That's good, that's good, but how do I carry it?"
"Just put it in my Inventory Bag and check it with your soul vessel"
"Hm, that's convenient"
…
Gu Qing Shan was so bored that she began to study the sword jade tag.
About half an incense's worth of time later.
"Zhang Xiao Yun, come in and get your badge!" someone called out.
"Yes!"
Gu Qing Shan answered, took her hand off the Inventory Bag, and stood up.
As he entered the room, he saw that there were a lot of people coming and going, extremely busy.
The deputy general from before looked at him and smiled: "You have to work hard, after all, what we eat every day will depend on you"
Gu Qing Shan clasped her fist: "Don't worry sir, this humble one has always been very serious, especially when it comes to spirit cooking"
Hearing that, the deputy general and the people around him all appeared pleased.
Regardless of how good this brat's cooking is, having him as one more cook will greatly reduce the pressure on the other cooks, and the taste of the food will naturally improve.
The deputy general picked up a jade tag from the table and tossed it to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan reached her hand out to catch it.
The jade tag abruptly stopped in mid-air.
Silence, all sound disappeared.
The smile on the deputy general's face didn't change at all, his hand was still making the tossing motion.
Next to him, a cultivator was arranging the jade tag, while two other cultivators were checking a certain number, their mouths were open, talking, but also completely motionless.
Everyone in the room fell into a state of stagnation.
A sword appeared from the void of space behind Gu Qing Shan, turning into Shannu.
"Gongzi, time has stopped" Shannu said.
Gu Qing Shan replied in a low voice: "It's fine, let's wait and see"
He took out the Chao Yin sword and held it in his hand.
All of a sudden, a young man descended from above.
The Spirit Tortoise.
The Spirit Tortoise had turned into human form.
This was the first time he appeared since he sent Gu Qing Shan into this phantom image.
"Young Tortoise, what's going on?" Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist and asked.
The Spirit Tortoise's expression was a bit tense.
He replied: "Just now, I suddenly felt an intense fluctuation in space-time, something must've snuck in"
"Snuck in?" Gu Qing Shan repeated.
"Yes, something that I don't know what it was came from the River of Time and snuck into this phantom image" the Spirit Tortoise replied.
"How did something like that happen — — has this ever happened before?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The Spirit Tortoise exuded killing intent: "It has not! In truth, my duty is to protect this phantom image of the Age of Old, any entity that dares to peek or try to sneak in will be killed by me on the spot "
"What about that thing?"
The Spirit Tortoise appeared a bit unwilling: "That thing used an extremely miraculous method to return from the distant future, ignoring all of my defensive measures and directly entered the phantom image"
"Although I am the Spirit Tortoise of the Age of Old, I found that I couldn't stop this. Furthermore, I'm still too young, I can't deal with it with my current strength, that's why I came to find you"
He stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and continued: "The Tortoise race has always been the best at defense and divination, so I performed a divination and found that if you continue to stay here, you will most likely die"
"Because of that, you now have two choices. The first is to take what you've gained, immediately leave this phantom image and return with me"
"The second is to stay here and hide from that thing while continuing to search for more things from the Age of Old"
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
I've already obtained the Sword Scripture inheritance from the Age of Old, so it's not impossible for me to leave.
Even the Spirit Tortoise doesn't know what that thing is, and it can't do anything about it either.
With my current strength, I definitely won't be able to deal with it.
Gu Qing Shan then asked: "Leaving is the best choice, but after I leave this place, can I go find the Heaven sword?"
The Spirit Tortoise sighed: "That won't do. Seeing how serious the situation is, I might as well tell you honestly. You must complete this phantom image of the Age of Old before you have the right to proceed to the next step, which will be the beginning of the search for the Heaven sword"
"Then I'll continue to stay here" Gu Qing Shan resolutely said.
"I need to remind you, that thing is coming for you, the current you isn't a match for it, you might very well die here" the Spirit Tortoise told her.
