The hole in the void of space closed.
The Abyssal Fate Weaver most likely wouldn't be able to reassemble her body in such a short amount of time to counterattack.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the man covered in black light.
"I haven't asked — —"
"My name is C23"
“C23？”
"Yes, before I pass the test, I have no name"
C23 sighed emotionally: "I didn't think I would be used to make a deal with the Abyss, this is the greatest shame of my life"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the hatred in his eyes and pondered.
At this point, a small sound could be heard.
C23's head exploded as his body collapsed to the ground.
There was no need to check, he only needed to use his inner sight to know that the other party was truly dead.
Gu Qing Shan froze.
The other party died without any warning, he didn't even have time to react.
He's still an entity that carries the [Demon King Order], how did he die just like that?
Lines of blood-red text appeared in the void of space in front of his eyes:
[Trial subject has escaped control, destruction complete]
[Beginning to extract the Origin power of Order from the trial subject to replenish the power of the Order]
[Extraction complete, target's power reserve has been extracted]
[Sir Envoy of Condemnation, as soon as you complete the Order's Quest, the Order will complete its evolution as soon as possible]
Gu Qing Shan skimmed through it and asked: "What's a trial subject?"
The [Demon King Order] replied: [When the Order first tried to use human bodies as a trial subject, they were unstable and extremely dangerous. As soon as they regained their freedom, they would become a huge problem, so at the very beginning, humanity set up a self-destruction mechanism on them]
[The relevant content is classified as top secret, your excellency is temporarily unable to view it]
[Your excellency only needs to remember one thing, that is, there can only be a single Demon King in this world]
Gu Qing Shan went silent.
Although I wasn't the one who died, the [Order]'s words were filled with cruelty.
"It's strange" Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit and said: "On my way here, I've never felt the [Order] to be particularly powerful"
The [Demon King Order] replied: [That's because of the unique circumstances, the [Order] couldn't help but give up all of its abilities and powers in order to fully evolve to help your excellency reach the realm of the Demon King of Condemnation]
"You're saying that you've never had a chance to display your skills?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The [Demon King Order] explained: [In order to help your excellency, ever since the [Kindling] stage, the Order has never developed any powerful abilities, only focusing on evolution]
Gu Qing Shan thought about it carefully and nodded.
He had to admit this: In order to reach the stage of the Demon King's descent as soon as possible, [Order] had done its best.
However —
As Gu Qing Shan looked at the corpse, she felt that there was something fishy about the Bygone Era behind this.
But now was not the time to think about it.
The real situation was more troublesome than he had imagined.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan looked towards the back of the Divine King Palace.
Just now, in order to find the true moment of humanity, the 'figure of light', the Strength God, and the 'God of Frost and Chill' had all ordered the Divine race to enter the phantom images.
For its own purposes, the figure of light gave this order.
The God of Frost and Chill listened to Gu Qing Shan's telepathic message and agreed to the order.
And the Strength God was purely following them.
— — -his mind wasn't that good.
So this was a very rare sight.
The entire Sky Beyond Heaven was empty, other than the God of Frost and Chill, there were no other Divinities inside the Divine King Palace.
A certain thought appeared in Gu Qing Shan's mind as she casually walked towards the back of the Divine King Palace.
"Where are you going?" Luo Bingli asked in confusion.
"For a stroll" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He reached his hand out to Shannu.
Shannu understood and threw the Divine King scepter to him.
Gu Qing Shan received the scepter, walked through the long hallway, and arrived in front of the Divine race's inheritance vault.
Gu Qing Shan walked along the long hallway of the Divine King Palace until he reached the entrance of the inheritance vault.
The metal door of the Divine race's inheritance vault was tightly shut, the door was engraved with countless complicated runes, even a single glance at them would cause one's soul vessel to be shaken.
Any attack on the metal door would activate the counter measures on the door.
"You won't be able to enter, each Divine King can only enter once" Luo Bingli told him.
"I know, but this scepter of mine came from a parallel world, I've never come into contact with this vault before"
Gu Qing Shan stared closely at the metal door and continued: "Not to mention, it's not a big deal to try"
Seemingly sensing the Divine King scepter's arrival, all the runes on the metal door glowed.
They revolved around the center of the metal door, forming a whirlpool.
Gu Qing Shan raised the Divine King scepter and inserted it into the black hole at the center of the runes.
In a split second, a ray of light shone down from the metal door and illuminated Gu Qing Shan's body.
His entire body disappeared from the metal door.
Luo Bingli and Shannu exchanged glances.
"Where did he go?" Luo Bingli asked.
"I'm not sure, the decisive battle is coming up, gongzi might have his own plans, just wait patiently" Shannu replied.
After a while, Gu Qing Shan reappeared.
His arm was a mechanical arm with countless densely packed thin and long tentacles. It looked a little horrifying.
Shannu was shocked and couldn't help but ask: "Gongzi — –"
"It's fine, it's just a small tool"
Saying so, Gu Qing Shan carefully put the mechanical arm away.
He looked a bit tired, but his eyes were glowing.
I have to get the Heaven sword now!
His gaze passed through everyone else.
Luo Bingli.
The sleeping Little Dusk.
And Shannu who had turned into the God of Frost and Chill.
Gu Qing Shan first looked at Luo Bingli and asked: "I'm going to go to that moment, can you come?"
— — -that true moment had been cut off from the timeline, forming a Temporal Oasis.
If two Luo Bingli appeared on that Temporal Oasis, one of them would be erased by the Law of Time.
Luo Bingli looked at him and suddenly said: "In truth, I came out from that true moment"
Gu Qing Shan immediately asked: "Why were you able to come out from that moment?"
Luo Bingli replied: "I was that weapon's weapon spirit. At the time when that Abyssal weapon was destroyed, I should have died as well, but the Heaven sword's forging process was still lacking one step"
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan became anxious.
He recalled what the cultivators from the Age of Old told him in Xie Dao Ling's dream:
"The Heaven sword's forging process wasn't complete, there was still one crucial step missing"
Luo Bingli replied: "The Heaven sword didn't give birth to a weapon spirit"
"The Immortal King promised me that as long as I bring the human sword seeker to him, he would allow me to attach myself to the Heaven sword and live on as the Heaven sword's sword spirit"
Gu Qing Shan slowly said: "The Eternal Abyssal weapon was destroyed by the Immortal King, so you should hate him"
Luo Bingli stared straight at him: "From start to finish, I saw how you risked your life to save your weapon, and I feel that this ending isn't too bad"
Gu Qing Shan froze.
Luo Bingli's expression slowly turned serious:
"That true moment had been repeating itself over and over again, the Immortal King had simulated it countless times and meticulously designed a sword taking method with the other great cultivators to perfectly avoid the Abyssal Magic Dragon and the Soul Shrieker"
Gu Qing Shan asked: "In other words, as long as I follow the steps, I'll be able to take the Heaven sword away?"
"That's right, they had rehearsed it countless times just for this moment" Luo Bingli replied.
Gu Qing Shan muttered: "To avoid the Abyssal Magic Dragon and the Soul Shrieker, they must have done everything they could"
"That's right" Luo Bingli spoke with a stern expression: "Once you enter that true moment, the Immortal King will undo the majority of the temporal technique, allowing you to take the Heaven sword away"
"When that time comes, everything will not be able to be redone."
"Keep in mind, your time is very limited and you only have one chance, the Abyssal Magic Dragon and the Soul Shrieker will soon react"
"I understand" Gu Qing Shan's body slowly tensed up.
— — it wasn't just that moment that couldn't be redone.
He wasn't within the [Time Reversal] technique right now, so even if he died, he wouldn't be able to redo it.
Not to mention, if he didn't obtain the Heaven sword, the Earth sword would definitely die.
"Didn't you prepare any preparations?" he couldn't help but ask.
"For such a crucial matter, of course there would be preparations" Luo Bingli reached her hand out: "The Immortal King had designed a set of illusions that would be exactly the same as that true moment. You must first observe it and learn how to take the Heaven sword. Once you fully understand the steps, we will enter that true moment and officially begin"
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief: "That's good"
Luo Bingli took out a glowing piece of jade and tossed it into the air.
The piece of jade glowed and turned into a screen of light in the air.
Gu Qing Shan saw the scenes of intense battle.
Cultivators risking their lives to fight.
Humanity was slowly being wiped out.
Everyone was dead.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but sigh.
Luo Bingli then explained: "At the beginning of that moment, the Abyssal Magic Dragon, the Soul Shrieker, and the Abyssal Fate Weaver were all at the center of the battlefield, surrounding and attacking the Heaven sword"
"At the very last moment, the Immortal King realized that he couldn't give the weapon to these three terrifying monsters"
"He would activate the power of the Abyssal Eternal weapon to form a phantom image and hide this one hour"
"It was at that moment that the Heaven sword regained its freedom from that weapon"
"After that, the Abyssal Magic Dragon, the Soul Shrieker, and the Abyssal Fate Weaver would all come forward to steal the Heaven sword"
"You must obtain the Heaven sword before that moment arrives and allow me to fuse with it"
"Only when I fuse with it would the Heaven sword be truly forged, only then would you be able to activate the power of the three coins and return to the future"
Gu Qing Shan carefully listened while observing the screen of light.
The battlefield was a mess, everyone was dead.
This was too tragic.
"The Abyssal Fate Weaver has been erased" Gu Qing Shan regained her calm and calmly replied.
"Yes, but both the Abyssal Magic Dragon and the Soul Shrieker aren't existences that we can deal with" Luo Bingli replied.
"After we enter that moment, where will we appear?"
"We will appear at the edge of the battlefield. You must think of a way to get to the center of the battlefield while hiding from both the Abyssal Magic Dragon and the Soul Shrieker to obtain the Heaven sword"
