A series of glowing text hovered at the center of the War God UI.
This was the summary of the battle from before:
[Through this battle, you've obtained a total of 7651 Soul Points]
[Your remaining Soul Points is as Gu Qing Shan glanced over.
A little over ten thousand Soul Points wasn't much in the past.
But now, the War God UI takes a lot of Soul Points each time, so any Desolate monster I kill would only give me a few dozen or so Soul Points.
That's why Gu Qing Shan was already very satisfied with this much Soul Points.
What can I do with 10,000 Soul Points?
I can't do anything else, but I can find a cultivation scripture from the scriptures Xie Gu Hong gave me, comprehend it, cultivate for a few more days, and try to break through the final barrier and become a decent Void Wanderer realm cultivator.
Gu Qing Shan silently sighed.
— — -unfortunately, after I turned into the God of Frost and Chill, one thing after another happened after another, I had to deal with them with everything I had, so I didn't have the time to cultivate.
While these thoughts took a long time to describe, it only took one breath's worth of time for Gu Qing Shan to think about it in the outside world.
「 Your Divine Majesty, what are you thinking about? 」 the figure of light asked.
"I'm thinking about how to face the real enemy" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
This time, it was a real sigh.
After all, an entity like the Soul Shrieker was hard for anyone to deal with.
「 The real enemy? What do you mean? 」 the figure of light was even more confused.
"That's right, the Lord of Desolation isn't really much"
While saying that, Gu Qing Shan was silently thinking about how to phrase it.
After a bit of thought, the figure of light understood what Gu Qing Shan meant.
It seems the Divine King really did find something!
The figure of light became spirited and asked: 「 Your Divine Majesty, during your trip to the Desolate world, what exactly did you find? 」
"The Lord of Desolation wasn't the cause of our Divine race's decline, in fact, the entire Desolate race was being manipulated" Gu Qing Shan replied.
In front of the figure of light, he told her everything that happened in the Daoist temple.
Of course, she couldn't tell him about the awakening of the human army, nor about the Devil King Warden Rod. Gu Qing Shan could only tell him that she used the power of the Divine race to interrogate the old man.
— — as the Divine King, the God of Frost and Chill's power had already reached the peak of Paragon realm.
No matter how undying the white-haired old man was, he was only a Void Wanderer human expert. He was nothing before a Godking.
Hearing Gu Qing Shan's explanation, the figure of light was speechless for a while.
Luo Bingli also pursed her lips, as if recalling something from the past. She lowered her head without saying a word.
Winds of Chaotic Tribulation.
Eternal Abyss.
Tie Wei city wall.
The Desolate race was being manipulated.
Terrifying True Deity: Soul Shrieker
And the shocking truth: The twin swords Heaven and Earth were only components of a single weapon from the Eternal Abyss.
The figure of light looked at Gu Qing Shan.
"If that's the case, then everything makes sense."
"We never thought that the truth of history would be like this."
He spoke in a hoarse voice.
Such a shocking secret had always been hidden by the Desolate race within the Tie Wei city wall, never to be discovered by the remaining Divine race.
But today, the truth of history was revealed by a Divine King who existed in a fragment of a parallel universe.
Gu Qing Shan asked: "You are the collective will of the Old Gods, the will of all the dead Old Gods and the remaining Divine race, do you have any way to deal with this situation?"
The figure of light said nothing.
The Grand Divine Palace fell silent.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a while, then suddenly smiled.
"That's true, but we can't even deal with the Desolate race alone, let alone the undying Eternal True God behind them"
Saying so, he turned around, quickly walked up the stairs, and sat down on the Divine Throne.
「 Your Divine Majesty, you seem to be very calm 」 the figure of light commented.
"What awaits our Divine race is an irresistible despair, I have no way to deal with it either" Gu Qing Shan replied.
His gaze passed through the figure of light and looked at Luo Bingli.
She kept her head down, still focused on crafting the jade disk without showing any expression of fear.
Indeed, as a human expert, she was trying her best not to look at Gu Qing Shan to avoid arousing the figure of light's suspicions.
As that thought flashed through Gu Qing Shan's mind, she turned her gaze back to the figure of light.
In theory, after knowing such a huge secret, the figure of light should have immediately left this world to activate all of the preparations the Old Gods had prepared.
But he didn't do anything.
From the looks of it, the situation had already gone beyond the Divine race's preparations and preparations.
The preparations they made were only meant to deal with humanity.
Want to fight against the Eternal True God?
That's impossible.
In other words, the Divine race had reached a state of despair and had to make a final decision.
Gu Qing Shan's expression was expressionless, both hands on the throne, seemingly immersed in his own world, thinking of a solution.
In truth, he was only waiting.
Waiting to see what the figure of light would do.
After a while of silence, the figure of light couldn't help but speak up: 「 How about we find the Golden Flame Divinity, he might — — 」
"No!"
Gu Qing Shan cut the figure of light off and spoke with a seemingly slow but actually fast tone: "The Golden Flame Divinity only cares about his own future, I can't let him know the truth"
「 What do you mean, your majesty? 」 the figure of light asked.
Gu Qing Shan lowered her voice: "Think about it carefully, once he knows everything, what would he consider first?"
The figure of light replied: 「 He would use everything he knows to face the problem together with us 」
「 That's not the case, if we bring an entity from the future with us, in the case of a crucial moment where we have to make a choice — — - 」
「 For example, if he has to choose between saving us and killing Gu Qing Shan, I believe he would definitely give up on us and kill Gu Qing Shan 」
「 Because Gu Qing Shan is related to the future of his world 」
「 Furthermore, in the history we belong to, we are already dead, not worth saving at all 」
「 He wouldn't do that, not to mention, there shouldn't be such a coincidence in history 」 the figure of light replied.
Gu Qing Shan clenched her fist and looked at the figure of light: "This king carries the fate of the entire Divine race on his shoulders, I cannot take even the slightest risk. So what we need to discuss is what he would do if such a situation were to occur"
The figure of light said nothing.
Gu Qing Shan continued: "Unless he can prove that he holds goodwill towards the Divine race of this era, only then will I be willing to share the secret of the Eternal Abyss with him"
The figure of light thought for a bit more and said: 「 Your majesty, please release the Golden Flame Divinity, I will take him to experience a few trials and see what kind of choice he would make 」
Gu Qing Shan froze.
What's going on?
Could it be that the Divine race is able to create a hidden fragment of the era within the phantom images?
But there's no time to think about that right now. Gu Qing Shan called out without changing her expression: "Guards"
Six Divine Guards flew into the palace.
"Go, release the Golden Flame Divinity" Gu Qing Shan ordered.
"Understood"
The Divine Guards received their orders and left.
The figure of light bowed to Gu Qing Shan: 「 Your majesty, I will be taking him with me. If the answer I receive is the same as what you said, I will return 」
"Go" Gu Qing Shan said.
The figure of light left the Grand Divine Palace.
Only Gu Qing Shan and Luo Bingli were left in the palace.
It was now that Luo Bingli sent her voice to Gu Qing Shan through inner sight.
"What were you thinking, telling such a big secret to the Divine race?" she doubtfully asked.
"They know about the Soul Shrieker's existence, that's why they've relaxed their pressure on humanity" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He stretched his back, looking a bit tired.
That's right, during the entire journey to the Desolate world, his mind had been highly focused, constantly dealing with any and all variables, even someone like Gu Qing Shan was exhausted.
Luo Bingli thought for a bit, then asked: "You also released the Golden Flame Divinity, it's an entity that came from the future and knows everything, are you really that careless to let the figure of light take it away?"
Gu Qing Shan yawned: "It's not careless, it's just that if you want to take first, you must first give"
"I don't understand" Luo Bingli replied.
"Don't worry, when the Golden Flame Divinity makes his choice, they will definitely return"
"Why would they return?"
"I'm the only Divinity that discovered the truth of history, the only Divinity that's currently changing the fate of the Divine race, the only Divine King to awaken in the countless phantom images, the figure of light wouldn't be willing to give up on an entity like me"
Luo Bingli thought for a bit, then asked: "If I was the Golden Flame Divinity, I probably wouldn't save these Divinities from the Age of Old and would only save my own future — — but if the Golden Flame Divinity doesn't think the same as you and I and actually saves these Divinities, what then?"
"Who cares, it's only a small matter"
Gu Qing Shan didn't mind at all.
He even took out a bottle of liquor, poured himself a glass, and slowly drank from it on his throne.
Luo Bingli looked at Gu Qing Shan in shock, unable to understand what this person was thinking.
Seeing his attitude, she really didn't want to ask, but this was such an important matter that she wouldn't feel assured if she didn't ask.
"This is good liquor, you've been working hard recently, do you want a glass?"
Gu Qing Shan invited her.
"Gu Qing Shan, this isn't a small matter, the Golden Flame Divinity came from the future — —"
Before Luo Bingli could finish her sentence, Gu Qing Shan cut her off: "So what? If he gives up on saving the Divinities, the figure of light will naturally side with me "
Luo Bingli pursued: "What if he chooses to save the Divinities from the Age of Old? What will you do then? "
"That's even better. Since he's proven his loyalty to the Divinities from the Age of Old, I'll have him work for the Divinities from the Age of Old — — don't worry, this King will make good use of him"
Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
He poured himself a glass of liquor, gave it to her, and said:
"I suggest that you rest a bit, a bit of liquor will help you relax even more"
"Relax …"
Luo Bingli muttered and couldn't help but receive the glass.
The clear liquid inside the glass was as pure and enchanting as amber.
"The Eternal True God planned everything, he's also an invincible entity, do you have a plan to deal with him now?" Luo Bingli asked.
"Not yet, so we still have a lot of things to do from here on out. We need to relax a bit for now, otherwise, we might make mistakes if our minds are too tense" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"I actually feel like drinking alcohol would make mistakes" Luo Bingli commented.
"That's true, that's why we're only drinking the spirit fruit liquor brewed by the Divinities this time. The ingredients for this liquor are all very rare, capable of boosting one's vigor, as well as giving off a unique fragrance that is hard to forget, so the recipe wasn't passed down to humanity"
Gu Qing Shan raised her glass, nodded to Luo Bingli, then downed it all at once.
Seeing Gu Qing Shan's expression, Luo Bingli suddenly realized something.
They were currently in the palace of the Divine race's monarch, drinking the liquor brewed by the Divinities.
Regardless of what the future holds, this moment has never happened before in the history of humanity.
Luo Bingli put the glass in front of her lips and took a sip.
