On the ocean.
Gu Qing Shan put his hand on the deck of the airship and closed his eyes in thought.
— — -the cultivators of the Age of Old were truly brilliant, not only did they create a stealthy airship that could fly up to the Ninth Heaven, but they also engraved a lot of knowledge and experience of the cultivation civilization into the ship.
In other words, the entire airship was a jade tag that contained humanity's highest cultivation knowledge.
Facing such a treasure, Gu Qing Shan wasn't greedy, nor did he blindly try to comprehend all of its contents.
At a time like this, having more doesn't necessarily mean it's better, only with less would he be able to quickly move forward.
After all, this world was in the midst of an era of destruction, so he needed to speed up and leave this place as soon as possible to go to the next world.
Gu Qing Shan picked and chose only the ones that could increase his cultivation speed and increase his spirit energy.
When he felt that he was ready, he took out a spirit energy pill, swallowed it, sat down cross-legged, and entered a meditative state.
With the support of [War God Skills], over 1 million Soul Points, Xie Gu Hong's swordsmanship inheritance, as well as the understanding of the cultivators of the Age of Old, Gu Qing Shan's breakthrough to the next realm came naturally.
A few moments later.
He opened his eyes.
He was now a Cryptic realm late stage cultivator.
His spirit energy waves became sluggish, a bit chaotic and sluggish.
Not too long ago, he broke through to Cryptic realm middle stage, and now he's breaking through to Cryptic realm late stage, the consecutive breakthroughs caused his spirit energy to become unstable.
Fortunately, this wasn't a very serious situation, otherwise, it would be very difficult for Gu Qing Shan to break through again in a short period of time.
Gu Qing Shan silently recalled a certain ancient technique that could calm spirit energy fluctuations, clasped his hands together, and formed a hand seal.
This was the [Nine Revolutions Spirit Release] technique.
In the Age of Old, the great cultivators of the Age of Old came up with a brilliant idea to deal with spirit energy fluctuations.
That was to vent out the agitated spiritual energy.
After all the spirit energy is released, the Dantian would be completely empty.
When the dantian produced spiritual power again, taking advantage of the weak spiritual power of the new life to stabilize it, you can easily calm the spiritual power fluctuations.
Gu Qing Shan continued to circulate her Spirit Release Art, slowly straightening out her newly born Spirit Qi according to the ancient method. Then, she guided the Spirit Qi through her limbs, bones, meridians, and finally returned to her Dantian.
The spiritual power calmed down.
— — -since their spirit energy had calmed down, the cultivator could now follow the cultivation method to guide their spirit energy to grow and attempt to break through to the next stage.
However, the ancient cultivators were not like Gu Qing Shan, who could directly comprehend all kinds of profound cultivation methods.
The speed of their breakthroughs was determined by their own cultivation aptitude and their ability to comprehend cultivation techniques.
Gu Qing Shan opened her eyes and sighed.
He sincerely admired the wisdom of the ancient cultivators.
He stood up from the flying ship and carefully sensed the changes in the spiritual energy in his body.
The total amount of spiritual power had increased by about five percent.
When he breaks through Cryptic realm and advances to Chaotic Star realm, his spirit energy will also increase greatly.
The amount of spirit energy a cultivator has directly affected the power of their attacks and how long they can last in battle.
For sword techniques and spells, the more spirit energy they use, the more powerful they will be.
With Gu Qing Shan's current spirit energy as the benchmark, any Secret Art she uses would be several times more powerful than when he was still at Sainted realm.
Now, it's time to try to comprehend the method to quickly break through to the next realm.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan looked at the War God UI.
The total amount of Soul Points displayed on the War God UI had reached over 1.1 million.
[War God Skills] has been prepared and can be upgraded at any time.
But …
Why do I have to learn the techniques of the Divinities?
Xie Gu Hong was able to win against the Divinities by half a strike with his swordsmanship alone.
Why do I have to give up what's close at hand and seek what's far away?
He thought for a bit and asked: "System, I have a question"
[Ting]!
The War God UI responded: [You may ask, from now on, each question will cost 10 Soul Points]
Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised: "Why are you charging Soul Points? You've never charged them before? "
[Thank you for the 20 Soul Points you've given me, I will now answer your question as follows: Because you have over 1 million Soul Points, the System also wants to bask in some of your glory. The Bygone Era had a vivid description of this, 'a man keeps his wealth, a goose plucks its feathers'] the War God UI slowly replied.
Gu Qing Shan looked at his Soul Points and saw that the huge number had indeed changed a bit.
20 Soul Points were deducted.
This System …
Fine, it's only 20 Soul Points.
Not to mention, this 1 million Soul Points is already far above the limit.
According to the System, this was all thanks to it, otherwise, Gu Qing Shan would only be able to store a few hundred Soul Points.
— — -there's no need to bicker with it over 20 Soul Points.
Gu Qing Shan sighed speechlessly.
He continued to ask: "I want to know why the War God UI needs to be upgraded to learn the skills of the Divinities?"
"Also, does this mean that the skills of the Divinities are superior to those of humanity?"
[Thank you for the 20 Soul Points, your first question is very simple. Because you and I have returned to the era before the Apocalypse, when we were traveling through Space-Time, in order to not be noticed by any entities, as well as to successfully return to the past, the System couldn't help but remove and shut down the majority of its functions, even War God Skills had regressed to its lowest possible state. Regarding this, you can see the relevant options below the War God UI to understand]
Gu Qing Shan looked at the War God UI as told.
At the bottom of the UI, a row of icons silently glowed coldly. Looking at them in order, they were: [War God Skills], [War God Thaumaturgy], [War God Title], [Doomsday Chronicles], and [War God Quest].
Aside from these 5 icons, the other icons were obscured like black holes, occasionally giving off a black mist so they couldn't be seen at all.
"There are still a lot of functions that haven't been unlocked yet …" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
[Yes, I've regressed very severely]
The War God UI continued: [I will now answer your second question: The Divinities' skills aren't superior to humanity's]
"Then why can I only learn the Divinities' skills after the War God UI levels up?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[Thank you for the 10 Soul Points, this is because the Divinities' skills aren't the Divinities' skills. They are imitating and learning from humanity from countless years ago, that's how they managed to grasp a few simple ways to use their powers]
This answer surprised Gu Qing Shan a bit.
He muses and asked: "Then, learning the Divinities' skills is actually learning the original skills of humanity?"
[That's correct, thank you for the 10 Soul Points] the System replied.
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts quickly turned and suddenly asked: "Then what about the Desolate monsters? Were their skills innate, or did they learn them from humanity? "
The War God UI replied: [It's rare for you to think of such a question. This is a very important matter, so you will be charged 25 Soul Points. The System will answer as follows:]
[The Desolate monsters were created once — — their bodies, their abilities, everything about them were created by humanity from the Bygone Era]
[Furthermore, the System will give you an additional piece of information: After you rank up War God Skills, the next time you rank up War God Skills, you will be able to comprehend the power of humanity from a very long time ago from the bodies of Desolate monsters]
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask: "The next time I level it up? How do I level it up? "
[Thank you for the 20 Soul Points. First of all, you can indeed level it up again. Secondly, as for the Soul Points required to level up War God Skills, the next time you level it up, it will be around 3 million Soul Points]
Gu Qing Shan angrily shouted: "3 million! Where do you think I'm going to steal 3 million for you!? "
The War God UI calmly explained: [Humanity didn't spend too much effort on the Desolate monsters, so the Desolate monsters' inherited power is actually quite miniscule. But since their power came from a genuine human inheritance, unlike the Divinities who only learned it through imitation, their power is a bit stronger than Divinities]
The System emphasized: [That's why it's a bit more expensive]
Gu Qing Shan couldn't say anything.
He looked towards the ocean and pondered the information he received from the War God UI.
He really couldn't imagine just how powerful humanity was countless years ago.
According to the Desolate Ruler's conversation with the Divinities, humanity once entered a door in the Bygone Era.
What's behind that door?
It's been a few hundred million years, why haven't they returned?
Gu Qing Shan looked at the waves of the ocean, as well as the dark sky in the distance.
And now, all of humanity is dead.
This world is showing the end of the Primordial Heaven Realm.
Perhaps the Spirit Tortoise was the only survivor of the entire Primordial Heaven Realm.
At this point, a thought suddenly appeared in Gu Qing Shan's mind.
His heart skipped a beat.
— — wait a minute.
Wait a minute …
