The Grand Divine Palace.
Gu Qing Shan sat on his throne, feeling a bit unaccustomed.
The War God UI had disappeared from his sight. The empty void of space made him feel a bit uncomfortable.
A thought kept popping up in his mind:
— — will the System really appear when I return to the Strife Zones?
This was a question he couldn't help but seriously ponder.
Gu Qing Shan began to analyze the entire situation bit by bit.
First of all — —
I'm currently in a phantom image of several ten thousand years ago.
Phantom images are a fragment of a parallel world — — I need to think of a way to travel to a certain point in time in the real world and take the Heaven sword.
From the perspective of the timeline, this timeline is far older than the timeline I came from in my previous life.
Because of that, there are a total of three crucial points in the timeline.
The first is the Age of Old.
The second is the cultivation world's Year of Peace.
The third is the final moment I left — — - the Strife Zones, inside the seal of Drifting Sand world.
The first point is the farthest, since I lost the War God System at that point, I naturally wouldn't be able to obtain it again.
The second point is the final year of Year of Peace, when I just obtained the War God System.
The first point in time and the second point in time formed a closed loop, but time always moved forward, so the timeline diverged from the second point and moved forward to the third point.
After the second point in time, the War God System would always exist, so as time continues to move forward and reach the third point, the War God System would naturally still exist.
So according to the most basic Law of Time and logic, as long as I return to the third point in time, the System would naturally return.
"How perfect …" Gu Qing Shan muttered to himself.
He finally calmed down.
"What are you talking about?" Luo Bingli asked.
She tossed a jade disk to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan caught the jade disk and habitually looked at the void of space.
But there weren't any glowing lines of text there.
Gu Qing Shan smiled bitterly, looked at the jade disk in her hand, and asked: "You've finished?"
"Yes, with this jade disk, we can go to the backup path at any time" Luo Bingli replied.
"That's great, from now on, we only need to wait for the figure of light to return" Gu Qing Shan said.
Luo Bingli was puzzled. "Didn't you tell it that you were going to find Gu Qing Shan? Are we just going to wait here? "
"Of course not, follow me."
Gu Qing Shan flew to her side and took out a teleportation talisman.
He infused his spiritual energy into the talisman, and the teleportation talisman immediately lit up.
It brought Gu Qing Shan and Luo Bingli out of the Grand Divine Palace.
Amidst the ruins.
Light flashed.
The two of them revealed themselves.
Luo Bingli looked around and said, "This is where the Drifting Moon Immortal Sect used to be."
"Yes, we will find Gu Qing Shan here."
Gu Qing Shan said.
He waved his hand behind him.
Shannu appeared from the void of space and lightly landed in front of Gu Qing Shan.
"Gongzi, I understand, you need me to act as the Divine King" Shannu said.
"Hm, leave the loading of the [Order] to me, just do your best as the Divine King and make sure to keep an eye on me" Gu Qing Shan told her.
"Got it" Shannu replied.
Shannu's power came from the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, so she could use it whenever she wanted, unlike Gu Qing Shan who had to constantly challenge other Combatants to accumulate Soul Points.
She activated [Mystery of All Beings Equal] and quickly turned into a Divinity with a blue flame burning between his eyebrows.
The frigid aura around this blue flame Divinity turned into ice crystals that glowed with a myriad of colors under the illumination of the light, giving off a sense of holiness.
— — -this was the God of Frost and Chill.
"Alright, now it's my turn to dispel [Resonance]" Gu Qing Shan said a bit reluctantly.
His appearance slowly changed and returned to his original appearance.
Luo Bingli was intrigued and couldn't help but ask: "You've planned for so long, spent so much effort, and even carried the [Demon King Order], what exactly is your goal?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Of course it's to obtain the Heaven sword"
Saying so, he began to think of a strategy to deal with the situation.
— — when the figure of light returns, I'll have to carry the [Order].
Both in this life and the past life, I'm already very familiar with the [Demon King Order]. Once I carry it again, I'll be able to use it without any problems.
With the [Demon King Order]'s help, my strength will once again rapidly increase.
The main question is whether or not I want to become the Demon King.
If I go past the figure of light's bottom line and become the Demon King, I'll definitely ruin the entire plan.
— — -but doing so will awaken the other [Orders].
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but put her hand on her Inventory Bag.
Large-scale War System: Water God was sleeping peacefully in the storage bag.
If Water God awakens …
Gu Qing Shan thought for a while and sighed.
No.
My goal is to save the Earth sword!
Only after the Earth sword is saved will I be able to decide whether or not to do anything else based on the situation.
Gu Qing Shan silently made up her mind.
At this point, Luo Bingli asked: "After you obtain the Heaven sword, will you help the Divine race or humanity?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at her.
Luo Bingli smiled bitterly: "You're really good at being the Divine King, I even feel like you're more suited to be the Divine race"
Gu Qing Shan chuckled and shook her head. Who would've thought that the trick she used to deceive the Divine race would actually cause even her own people to waver.
That won't do.
Gu Qing Shan patiently explained: "You don't need to take it to heart. In truth, I'll definitely stand on humanity's side, after all, I'm a human cultivator"
Luo Bingli asked: "That means, after you obtain the Heaven sword, you'll go on a killing spree and eliminate all beings that aren't human?"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Killing people — — or killing anything else, I'm not interested, I only want to save the Earth sword"
Luo Bingli thought for a bit, then asked: "The Earth sword? Wait a minute, didn't you already obtain it? What happened to it? "
"It's heavily wounded, its artifact spirit could disappear at any moment, so my Shifu used a temporal technique to seal it away to stall for time"
"I heard that only the Heaven sword can save the Earth sword, so I need to find the Heaven sword"
Luo Bingli seriously listened to her and sighed emotionally: "We already know the truth, the twin swords Heaven and Earth are actually components of a certain weapon from the Eternal Abyss. At the very last moment, you will most likely have to face the mastermind of everything — — - the Eternal True Deity: Soul Shrieker"
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I will gather the power of the three coins and try my best to escape from it"
"What if you can't escape?" Luo Bingli asked.
"Then we'll fight to the death" Gu Qing Shan shrugged.
"Is it worth it to die to obtain the twin swords Heaven and Earth?"
"It's not like that, it would be great if I can obtain the Heaven sword, but if I can't, as long as I can fulfill my wish, I'll be satisfied"
"What is your wish?" Luo Bingli asked.
"The Earth Salvation sword — — it's my sword" Gu Qing Shan replied.
Luo Bingli was a bit surprised, then lowered her head and said nothing else.
Shannu suddenly said: "It's here"
In the sky, a blinding flash of light appeared.
The figure of light descended from above.
He looked at Gu Qing Shan, then at the Divine King — — - the God of Frost and Chill.
「 Your Majesty, have you reached an agreement with him? 」 the figure of light asked.
Shannu — — no, the Divine King puffed out his chest and spoke seriously: "This king will help Gu Qing Shan find the Heaven sword, while Gu Qing Shan, as the carrier of the [Order], will help this king obtain the power of the [Demon King Order], this is our agreement"
"It's very fair" Gu Qing Shan added.
The figure of light looked at her, his presence slowly becoming more and more intense.
Gu Qing Shan calmly replied: "I understand that you're restraining yourself, telling yourself not to kill me, but I have to say this very seriously, if the Divine race wants to obtain the power of the [Order], please try to restrain yourself"
The figure of light spoke in a low voice: 「 Do you think you can evolve the [Order] to the stage where the [Demon King Ascension] can be achieved by yourself? 」
"That's why I still need the help of the Divine race — — - helping me is the same as helping yourself obtain the power of the [Order], I'm sure you won't refuse" Gu Qing Shan replied.
The figure of light spoke: 「 Then, if you can't evolve the [Order] to the stage where the [Demon King Ascension] can be achieved — — - 」
"I'll die"
Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
The figure of light was finally satisfied.
He looked at the Divine King.
The Divine King smiled and did not say anything. He only nodded at it.
The figure of light couldn't help but shake his head, still in disbelief.
This was truly an unprecedented moment in history.
The Divine race had always stood at the top of humanity.
But today, the Divine race had taken an unprecedented path and made an agreement with a human cultivator.
The Divine King was willing to put down his pride and make a deal with a human for the sake of the fate of his race.
In the entire history of the Divine race, this Divine King was probably the only one who could think of such a method and do such a thing.
— — -perhaps he really could change the fate of the Divine race!
The figure of light was a bit excited and asked: 「 Your majesty, when do we begin? 」
「 Right now 」 the Divine King decisively answered.
「 Gu Qing Shan, do you have any questions? 」 the figure of light asked.
「 Time is precious, let's begin 」 Gu Qing Shan was just as straightforward.
The figure of light went silent for a brief moment.
Now that it's come to this …
「 Put your hand on mine 」 he told Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan did as he said.
A pair of glowing white wings suddenly spread open behind the figure of light's back.
Below the sky.
Above the ruins.
The figure of light raised his voice and loudly chanted a divine incantation:
「 The infinite worlds' Apocalypse!
「 The evil [Order]!
「 The Kindling of Life, the origin of all things, the revolution of living beings — — - 」
「 You are the crystallization of civilization, the master of the Demon Tide, the essence of the Demon King's descent 」
「 Come, I summon you to this place on behalf of your lamb 」
「 The [Demon King Order], descend! 」
Hoh — — -
An invisible gust of wind blew. Heaven and earth returned to silence.
Something seemed to have manifested from the unseen world.
They didn't have to wait too long.
A blood-red UI suddenly appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the UI.
[Welcome, human cultivator, you've received the favor of the [Order]]
[The [Order] will complete loading in three seconds]
[Three]
[Two]
[One!]
[Worlds Apocalypse Online: Kindling, loading complete]
[Congratulations! With the help of the [Order], you shall rebuild the glory of humanity]
Gu Qing Shan looked at the blood-red UI in front of him.
This blood-red UI contained too many memories and memories of his life.
Many of them had already passed.
He had grown into an excellent sword cultivator.
