Looking at the remaining 3 Soul Points displayed on the War God UI, Gu Qing Shan almost fell down from the sky.
There was a sea of monsters below, even if Gu Qing Shan had the support of Invisibility, he would still be discovered if he hit a monster's head.
He finally regained control of his body, regained his composure and asked: "System, how much Soul Points did you pay for me in advance, tell me clearly"
The War God System stayed silent and said nothing.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but ask again: "At least tell me a number, that way I'll know when I can pay you back"
A few moments later.
[Ting]!
The System finally responded with a clear chime: [Last time, when I paid for you in advance, the System used up too much Soul Points. The System received a certain degree of damage, it will most likely require a very long time as well as an endless supply of Soul Points to slowly recover]
A very long time — — -
An endless supply of Soul Points — — -
Slowly recover — — -
As soon as these three words came out, even Gu Qing Shan felt a bit impressed.
He sighed: "I'm guessing — — when I first learned how to perform, you also learned from me, didn't you?"
The System said nothing.
After waiting for a while, Gu Qing Shan didn't get a reply, so he could only continue flying forward.
Then he thought about it.
After all, the System did save him during the Apocalypse and brought him back to the past.
Not to mention, the System did help him pay Soul Points in advance.
That's why Gu Qing Shan didn't think too much about it.
— — -isn't it just Soul Points?
As long as you don't screw up at crucial moments, I'll take care of you, okay?
As Gu Qing Shan flew across the sky, he occasionally glanced at the horde of monsters below and took one or two lives.
He didn't want to kill too many to avoid attracting the attention of monsters that were too powerful.
Very quickly, his Soul Points increased to 22.
Hm …
This was a very good improvement.
…
Flying.
Flying.
Even with his Void Beholder realm strength, it still took Gu Qing Shan a few dozen minutes to fly at full speed.
He finally made it past the endless horde of monsters and reached a city wall.
This was a huge city wall made of black bricks of an unknown material. It stretched from one side of the horizon to the other, with no end in sight.
In front of the city wall, there was a warning sign. It was mottled with the marks of time, but one could barely make out the words written in the Desolate Era.
"You are prohibited from climbing the city walls, standing on the city walls, and crossing the city walls. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences."
Gu Qing Shan took two steps back and looked up at the city wall.
There was nothing on it.
Gu Qing Shan thought for a moment, then took out a magic stone and threw it towards the city wall.
As soon as the Magic Stone flew over the city wall, it was immediately brushed by a grey wind.
The Magic Stone disappeared without a trace.
The grey wind also quickly disappeared into the void.
Gu Qing Shan's expression turned grim.
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword appeared from the void of space. Shannu appeared and nervously told him: "Gongzi, it's the Winds of Chaotic Tribulation"
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
He didn't expect the winds of chaotic tribulation to be blowing on the city wall.
This was a wind that could destroy countless worlds, and no one had ever been able to stop it.
As far as Gu Qing Shan knew, only the Grand Tie Wei Mountain of the Samsara Huang Quan path could stop it.
But here, this ferocious wind was being stopped by the city wall.
Gu Qing Shan put his hand on the city wall.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.
Perhaps it was just Gu Qing Shan's imagination, but after he stopped worrying about the Soul Points, the War God UI's display speed seemed to have sped up a bit …
[Discovered structure: Bygone Era War Wall]
[Description: This is a city wall built by humanity in the Bygone Era, humanity relied on this grand city wall to stop the Winds of Chaotic Tribulation as well as other things]
[Description: All of the materials used to build this city wall were taken from the greatest crystallization and achievement of the Bygone Era human civilization: Bygone Era Samsara — — Huang Quan path]
Shannu carefully observed the city wall with a look of intimacy on her face.
"Gongzi, this seems to have been built from the Grand Tie Wei Mountain" she whispered.
Gu Qing Shan softly sighed: "That's right, this is truly shocking"
He went silent again, silently thinking about this information.
The Samsara theory was the greatest crystallization of humanity's civilization?
Speaking of which, the Samsara that the Divinities created had already been destroyed by the Lord of Desolation.
— — why did the Divinities hide it from him and secretly create the Samsara?
— — the Lord of Desolation was so furious that he killed the Divine King right away. This is also a question.
Why?
Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes and carefully recalled what the Lord of Desolation said when he killed the Divine King.
"The Samsara is not something that I can control. You dared to imitate the power of humanity and create it, which is the same as challenging my authority"
"Perhaps you don't know this, but this thing is very weak right now, but it will grow by itself and eventually turn into the greatest power of humanity, to the point where even you and I will not be able to control it"
…
Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.
He had a few ideas, but he needed more clues to confirm them.
As for now — —
Gu Qing Shan carefully observed the city wall.
Although Xie Gu Hong's trio didn't understand the Desolate language, they were all Combatants who stood at the peak of humanity, so they wouldn't recklessly charge up the city wall to seek death.
— — -otherwise, Xie Gu Hong wouldn't have been able to return to humanity unscathed.
They must have found another way.
Gu Qing Shan observed for a bit and quickly noticed a layer of dust on the ground in front of the city wall.
He walked forward, put his hand on the ground, and lightly knocked it.
The ground was solid and unresponsive.
Seems like this isn't the place.
Gu Qing Shan stood up and put his hand on the wall that the ground was connected to.
A voice suddenly came from inside the city wall:
[Begin examination]
"According to his vital signs, he is confirmed to be a human civilian, a boy."
[In accordance with wartime protection rules, child is permitted to enter]
The city wall parted to reveal a narrow entrance that was only wide enough for Gu Qing Shan to pass through.
Gu Qing Shan stood still for a while.
I've lived two lives, gone through countless wars and Apocalypses, so how did I become a civilian child?
What vital signs did I use to determine this …
In other words, my power — — -
Gu Qing Shan didn't want to think about it any longer.
This is a bit too much of a blow to my confidence.
Suppressing the inexplicable emotions in his mind, he quickly entered the city wall.
As soon as he entered, the city wall closed up behind him.
A slightly slanted staircase appeared below his feet.
Gu Qing Shan followed this small path downwards as his thoughts fluctuated.
— — -seems like Xie Gu Hong's group entered the city wall from here — — I wonder how old Xie Gu Hong's group was determined to be.
With Xie Gu Hong's strength, he might not be a child, but a civilian teenager instead?
Gu Qing Shan's thoughts were all over the place, but he maintained his vigilance and continued to follow the path deeper into the city wall.
After walking for a short distance, he quickened his pace.
Concealment only lasts for 2 hours, so I need to hurry.
He almost used the method of falling, and kept flying towards the bottom of the road at high speed.
About 100 breaths later.
Gu Qing Shan had reached the deepest part of the city wall.
He was standing on the very last step.
Leaving this step would lead to the endless darkness of the void, almost like a cliff that made it impossible to see anything — — or like a bottomless abyss, no matter how far he extended his inner sight, he wouldn't be able to see what was at the bottom.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a while.
Since Xie Gu Hong's group found this path, they wouldn't just disappear from this place for no reason.
Time slowly passed.
10 breaths later.
In the darkness of the distance, a cluster of stars was flying towards Gu Qing Shan.
In the blink of an eye, Gu Qing Shan found himself surrounded by countless stars.
These stars surrounded him, forming a brilliant river of stars in the boundless darkness.
So brilliant, so inconceivable.
Gu Qing Shan regained his composure and looked at the star closest to him.
The star seemed to have sensed his gaze and turned back into a card.
The card depicted a beautiful woman in a white dress, looking at him with a compassionate expression.
The woman spoke: "This place is almost completely destroyed, fortunately, I can still provide you with a bit of shelter"
As soon as she spoke, Gu Qing Shan recognized that she was the female voice that appeared in the chaotic tides.
The woman tilted her body so that Gu Qing Shan could see what was happening inside the card.
It was a tranquil island with beautiful scenery.
As Gu Qing Shan stared closely at the woman, he couldn't help but feel a sense of respect.
Gu Qing Shan swore that he had never felt this way in front of any Divinity.
He clasped his fist: "Thank you for your goodwill, but I didn't come here to seek shelter"
The woman asked: "Then why did you come?"
"I came here to find a way to win against the Desolate race and Divine race" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The woman continued: "Unfortunately, you came too late, the 18,800 subsystems of humanity here have all been destroyed"
She gestured for Gu Qing Shan to look around.
"Look, those dim stars are the destroyed subsystem worlds."
As Gu Qing Shan looked around the galaxy, he saw quite a few dim stars.
The woman continued: "The remaining 5,300 subsystem worlds are in a state of energy deficiency, unable to be activated, they are the stars that give off a faint glow"
"Look at that red star again."
Gu Qing Shan followed the girl's finger and saw a star that gave off a red glow.
"What is that?" he asked.
"The Desolate race's King is leading his people to wreak havoc in this final secondary defense subsystem world, attempting to destroy it" the woman replied.
She sighed: "The secondary defense subsystem is one of the two remaining functioning subsystem worlds, if it's destroyed, I'll only have one subsystem left"
"Secondary defense?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Indeed, many of my defensive subsystem worlds have been destroyed by the Desolate race" the woman replied.
"The Desolate race is a bit stronger than these defensive subsystems?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"No, the subsystems require energy, as well as human control in order to exert their true power, but it's been over a hundred million years since humans last came here" the woman replied.
"Which means, the three people who came before me have all entered that final subsystem world?" Gu Qing Shan continued to ask.
The woman replied: "Indeed, that is a Cultivation-type subsystem world, as well as the last intact subsystem world, it's very suitable for them"
She stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and continued: "The gate to the Cultivation-type subsystem world is still open, and it's still functioning, so you can take advantage of the time before the Desolate race invades to enter"
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a while, then suddenly asked: "Will the invisibility technique you've used on us be able to fool the Desolate race's King?"
The woman replied: "I can increase your Shadow Origin power to that effect, but the duration of your invisibility will be halved"
"Very well, please increase my Origin power, then — — -"
