The phonograph returned into Card form and went back to Gu Qing Shan’s hand.
The Card then disappeared.
——this was Little Dusk’s Card that Gu Qing Shan only managed to draw during the [Duo Image] combat mode.
After Gu Qing Shan used it once, it would return to Little Dusk’s deck.
Boss narrowed his eyes, saying: “I had thought of it as a house dog, who knew it would turn out to be a wolf”
Ye Fei Li asked: “What now? We’ve only just planned to return to that point in time, but someone else is already prepared to ambush us”
Gu Qing Shan lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhang Ying Hao followed up: “In truth, that’s also good news, it’s much better than us running into a trap without knowing anything”
Laura worriedly glanced at Gu Qing Shan.
Only to see that he was gazing into the void of space, seemingly pondering on something.
Gu Qing Shan’s attention was actually focused on the War God UI.
“War God UI, are there any ways for Little Dusk to regain her power?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[There are only two methods for her to recover, the first is to use 10 Inner Plane Cards to instantly replenish her powers; the second is to wait for her to gradually accumulate power again, it will be a relatively long process, but there will be no danger]
After answering, Gu Qing Shan’s remaining Soul Points were deducted by 200.
Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded.
—–indeed, Inner Plane Cards.
I also need an Inner Plane Card to advance.
Little Dusk needs 10.
Where am I supposed to find Inner Plane Cards?
At this point, everyone was shocked.
A mystical fluctuation of a spell was sweeping through every world.
“This is the Soul Shrieker’s aura!” Laura was startled.
Boss calmly told her: “No need to worry, this technique was cast over the entire 900 million World Layers, most likely a Deity-level ability, but it would not be a killing technique”
A second later.
The Soul Shrieker’s voice resounded.
Its voice echoed across every nook, every cranny, every secluded corner of the 900 million World Layers.
『「 All carriers of [Chaos], I am the founder of this Era, the spear header of [Chaos], and your Deity 』」
「『 I require your power! 」』
『「 Come, contribute your strength to the growth of the Era, and you shall obtain immeasurable benefits! 』」
「『 The 30,000 strongest carriers of [Chaos], as you hear my call, you must respond to the summon and arrive at my side 」』
『「 The other Combatants of [Chaos], come, all of you. You shall witness the advent of this Era with me 』」
「『 The full descent of [Chaos] is only one final step away! 」』
『「 All of those who participate in this war shall receive ample rewards as feedback from [Chaos] 』」
「『 The final war will soon begin! 」』
『「 As your Deity, I shall be waiting for you right here 』」
The Soul Shrieker’s voice slowly faded away.
At the same time, various faint vortexes began to manifest in the void of space around them.
Boss reminded them: “Don’t enter them, those are portals that can warp you straight to the Soul Shrieker’s location”
Everyone was considerably shocked.
What huge efforts, performing a great divine miracle to converse with the entire 900 million World Layers and summon all the strongest carriers of [Chaos] towards it.
To deal with Gu Qing Shan alone, the Soul Shrieker had decided to start a war!
It was clearly summoning carriers of [Chaos] but wasn’t afraid that Gu Qing Shan would notice.
Because it fully believed that Gu Qing Shan wouldn’t know it was actually leading people to the past in order to ambush Gu Qing Shan at that point in time.
Zhang Ying Hao was relieved: “It’s fortunate that we knew about this beforehand thanks to Little Dusk”
Ye Fei Li sighed: “But it’s useless even if we know. It had summoned so many people, all of which are carriers of [Chaos] stronger than both you and I, while there are only so many of us here, there’s no way we would be able to deal with them”
Gu Qing Shan suddenly looked up and replied: “There is a solution”
“What solution?” everyone asked at the same time.
“We will also call upon the power of everyone. I won’t believe that all Combatants are willing to carry [Chaos], after all, the 900 million World Layers as a whole had endured being trampled by [Chaos] enough. The people who faced injustice will not be able to bear it, and there will always be Combatants willing to stand on the people’s side” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“But then… who will trust us?” Boss asked.
Laura chimed in: “There’s no need to worry about that. We can return to the Bramble Bird Kingdom and rally the 900 million World Layers from there”
She patted her chest in pride: “Our Bramble Bird Kingdom’s reputation is more than worthy of everyone’s trust”
Gu Qing Shan also became spirited: “That’s right, I can guarantee it; Barry and Kitty, my sect, the Combatants of Blade Edge Pledge, all of them would surely be willing to fight”
“No one can decide the future of the 900 million World Layers by themselves, this future is for everyone who are willing to fight for it”
“We need to call upon those who are like-minded to fight alongside us”
“I will bring everyone with me to the past, to fight the decisive battle against the Soul Shrieker and Demon Dragon!”
Boss calmly said: “If that can truly be done, we still have one other issue that needs to be resolved”
“What issue?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Boss replied: “Our Angel of Condemnation had fallen into hibernation, unable to activate the power of the coins or bring us to the past”
Gu Qing Shan pulled his Card out and silently asked: “War God UI, can I replace Little Dusk?”
The War God UI replied: [Thank you for 200 Soul Points. As you are the Envoy of Condemnation, you naturally have that potential]
[However, you will need at least one Inner Plane Card to advance and reach the lowest threshold required to activate that power]
Gu Qing Shan lightly nodded.
“Laura, it seems like we still need to collect Cards. I need an Inner Plane Card—— any of them will do”
Laura took out an emerald green leaf and replied: “I will have people buy Cards at a high price, when we return to the Bramble Bird Kingdom, I’m sure it will be found”
“Good, then let’s get going, our destination is the Bramble Bird Kingdom!”
The airship abruptly sped up within the darkness of the space vortex, leaving a long trail of light behind it that quickly went out of sight
…
After Gu Qing Shan’s group left.
The same space vortex.
Where Calming Soul Country had been destroyed.
This place was in total chaos, countless ruined structures silently floated within the void of space.
The structures that had been so thoroughly destroyed that they were now space dust were mostly civilian buildings.
The only structure that could retain its shape somewhat within the fight between the two Deities was the royal palace.
At this point.
A tower-shaped building drifted through the darkness.
This was the royal library, where the Previous Kings had hidden themselves.
They were hiding within a thick book covered in dust, afraid that the God of Life would discover them before the coronation ceremony began.
The Previous Kings wanted to kill the God of Life!
They didn’t trust Gu Qing Shan, so they must have made numerous other arrangements.
——-after all, as spirits, they didn’t exactly have much else to do.
At the same time, Gu Qing Shan didn’t trust them either.
And Gu Qing Shan had directly sealed them here, making sure that they missed all the events that transpired in the outside world.
——-until after everything was already over and everyone had left.
A clear sound of shatter suddenly appeared within the silent library.
The small and transparent hourglass Gu Qing Shan had put on the book was broken.
The temporal seal had been undone!
The thick book opened by itself.
A flash of light.
A middle-aged man appeared in the tower.
He raised his hand to check his watch.
「 Just in time, the coronation ceremony will begin in a few minutes 」
「…those outsiders didn’t arrive after all 」
He muttered.
Suddenly, his body expanded and turned into a gigantic spirit.
Several hundred faces appeared on his inflated body.
——-each of these faces was one King from the past.
One king commented: 「 It’s too quiet outside 」
Another king replied: 「 Stop talking nonsense, the walls are lined with a quarantine spell, and the coronation ceremony is about to take place, of course, it’s going to be quiet 」
A third king loudly declared: 「 Gentlemen, this is our chance to regain our glory. Let’s not keep anything to ourselves any longer, we shall follow the original plan and trigger all of our arrangements”
Quite obviously, this king was a trustworthy one among the many kings.
As soon as he spoke up, the others went quiet.
This king then began to carefully delegate the tasks.
「 5th, you can trigger your trap 」
「 27th, when the time comes, you will be the first to come out, understand? 」
「 69th, you will be responsible for restraining the God of Life 」
「 9th, your job is more important, you need to watch out for the outsiders, preventing them from ruining our plan 」
「 10th, you will kill that 3 years old unwanted child 」
…
He quickly delegated a hundred tasks, then spoke to raise the morale of all the kings:
「 Gentlemen, this shall be the most glorious and most praiseworthy moment of our un-life! 」
「 The time is upon us, everyone will act at once, getting rid of the God of Life and those outsiders! 」
「 We act as one! They shall be dealt with! 」
All the kings responded at once.
The gigantic spirit broke through the tower and flew out——-
Which led to the Previous Kings seeing the endless darkness.
The outside was just the space vortex as well as the rubble of Calming Soul Country that was slowly being scattered away as they drifted.
The Previous Kings all froze, their fighting spirit from before completely deflated, so stunned that they forgot to even breathe.
The gigantic spirit simply floated along with the wind of the void for a while.
Until a resounding voice shouted:
「 WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE!!!!???? 」
