At the border of the wilderness.
Large craters were charred black all over the ground, the intense heat within was enough to cause the air above to warp.
Broken components were scattered everywhere.
“Tsk! So irritating”
Someone climbed out of one of the crater and sat flatly on the ground, his chest rhythmically going up and down.
“Finally… dealt with that thing”
Another voice spoke up.
“Reneedol had already ran away somewhere unknown”
A third voice said.
Two more figures climbed out of the crater, sitting next to the first one.
The three Deities.
After a bit more than 3 hours, they finally managed to destroy the robot.
The price they had to pay was using up all of their energy and being forced to rest.
“Still want to pursue?” Poison Deity asked.
“We definitely need to pursue, but we’re currently exhausted and need to rest——- after all, these bodies are still mortals” Foresight Deity replied.
The other two Deities nodded.
Shadow Deity suddenly said: “I discovered something strange”
“What is it?” Poison Deity asked.
“Look” Shadow Deity lightly waved his hand and grabbed a star.
Foresight Deity’s expression changed: “That can’t be right, why would all the Laws aside from Death and Radiance be converged into this star?”
Poison Deity also said: “Something so extraordinary hadn’t occurred even during our Era”
Foresight Deity agreed: “Yeah, the Laws of the World had been changed, this is truly unimaginable—– something completely beyond our understanding must have occurred last night!”
The three Deities exchanged solemn gazes.
Foresight Deity pondered: “If we can directly connect to the Laws, we won’t need to find Reneedol just yet”
“Then what do we do?” Shadow Deity asked.
Foresight Deity chuckled and replied: “Originally, only Reneedol could manifest the stars to summon us from the Dusty World, but now, we don’t need to rely on her”
“You mean——”
“We need to find a few corpses and summon more of our comrades”
Foresight Deity clenched his fist tightly and continued: “Once the Myriad Deities had been summoned, we’ll find Reneedol, kill her, then investigate what happened last night”
…
The star in Gu Qing Shan’s hand let out a bright glow, which drew Shroud, Reneedol, and Scarlet’s attention.
“Rhode, you’ve also begun to manifest the stars?” Shroud asked.
“I’m just giving it a try” Gu Qing Shan smiled.
Scarlet crouched in front of Gu Qing Shan, put her hands together, then prayed: “Rhode, you need to do your best ok, I’m your covenant bearer, the stronger you are in the future, the more power of Death I’ll be able to use, I’m counting on you!”
Gu Qing Shan was a bit speechless: “I’m not a deity, why are you praying to me”
“You and Shroud are currently no different from deities that roam the mortal plane” Reneedol replied.
Shroud smiled: “A mortal worshipping another mortal and obtaining power from them—— this situation had certainly never happened before”
“Let’s talk later, I need to try a bit and see what the Law of Death is suitable for” Gu Qing Shan said.
He stared at the star in his hand and quickly fell into thought.
Scarlet, Shroud, and Reneedol exchanged glances, then silently closed the door as they went into the neighboring train car.
——since Rhode is pondering his path of cultivation, it’s best not to bother him right now.
In the train car, Gu Qing Shan sat alone.
He began to ponder Boss’ words.
“…Everything about Radiance had already been determined, while nothing about the Law of Death had been…”
Everything about Radiance had already been determined——-
The Inner Plane would be massacred by Reneedol, Boss would also fall at her hands, then pushed into the Eternal Abyss.
Reneedol would then take control of the Wraith realm, continuously conquer other worlds, and even used the soul substitution technique to slowly take over the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, stealing the Delimitation Divine Sword from the great tomb.
Even now, she was searching for the other half of Shroud’s sealed body.
——–this was the definite, unchangeable history.
Only the Law of Death.
Nothing about it has been determined.
It would be able to create a completely different situation.
A situation that was brought about by [Distortion] and [Existence].
As he thought of this, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but mutter: “Death was originally despair, but now it would bring hope, Fate has always been so contradictory…”
He reached his hand forward to take another star.
Two stars hovered in his palm.
While their glows were dim, they faintly concealed unimaginable world Origin power.
This world Origin power consists of every Law aside from Radiance and Death, it is vast, magnificent, miraculous, and indescribable.
This power…
If it was Shroud, he would be able to use them to create weapons, armor, or even allow mortals to gain power similar to a Law Behemoth.
In fact, the Abyssal forms in the future might have been Shroud’s way of turning mortals into Law entities.
“Weapons…”
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a while, then suddenly reached his hand into the void of space to take out a scepter.
The Devil King Warden Rod!
“Death… hope…” Gu Qing Shan muttered in a low voice.
He suddenly pushed these two stars into the Devil King Warden Rod.
Like it had been coated in a layer of cold light, the Devil King Warden Rod illuminated the entire train car in a frosty white world.
“There isn’t enough power”
Gu Qing Shan took out another star and lightly placed it into the Devil King Warden Rod.
The Devil King Warden Rod glowed brighter as it absorbed this star.
At this time, Gu Qing Shan was already feeling his limits, so he casually took out a bottle of liquor, popped the bottle open, then drank it like water.
Finishing the entire bottle at once, he reached his hand into the void of space and shouted:
“Out!”
He took out another star and pushed it into the Devil King Warden Rod.
——-four stars!
Gu Qing Shan wielded the scepter and began to wave it in the air.
Wherever the scepter passed, the pure starlight left a string that quickly formed a shape.
Reneedol, Shroud, and Scarlet heard his shout, so they quickly ran to check.
Only to see that Gu Qing Shan had drawn out an entire pattern in the void of space.
“This is…” Shroud was unsure.
“An entity manifested from the Law?” Reneedol asked.
Gu Qing Shan sat on the ground, breathing heavily like he was drained of strength and replied: “That’s right, this is a manifestation from the Law of Death that can wield all the powers of Death”
Scarlet looked at the pattern in the air and found that it looked like some sort of animal.
She asked confusedly: “But why is it so small?”
“Because I only have this much power. Once I get stronger, it’ll also gradually grow stronger” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“I see” Scarlet muttered.
“What exactly is it?” Shroud asked with interest.
“It wields the power of Death, and I call it the Wolf of Death” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Wolf of Death!
So he had used Death to manifest Life.
This new life form would also be able to wield a certain level of Death’s power.
What a miraculous thought!
“Shroud used the stars to create powerful Soul Artifacts, while you use the stars to manifest beings of Death——- what both of you did is definitely not something normal people can do” Reneedol praised.
While they spoke, the animal pattern drawn in the air had fallen to the ground, slowly becoming solid.
When this animal was born, it wasn’t too big either, only as tall as Gu Qing Shan’s knee.
——that wasn’t particularly small either.
From appearance alone, it looked like a small newborn wolf, its face was slightly long, a stubby nose, as well a cute fluffy coat of fur.
This was the first being of Death.
None of the four underestimated the animal.
——-although it had just been born, although the majesty of a wolf couldn’t be seen at all, it was still a being manifested purely by the Law of Death, just the fact that it wielded the power of Death alone was enough to see its bright future.
“It seems to be the same as our Abaddon Soul Artifact, still in its initial stages. It will need more power from the stars in order to grow stronger” Shroud commented.
“Yeah, I’ll train it to slowly wield the power of Death——”
After saying so, Gu Qing Shan waved towards the animal: “Come, Wolf of Death, I am your creator!”
The animal looked at Gu Qing Shan with an intimate gaze.
It moved.
Its tail was already moving.
It was wagging its tail continuously as it rushed straight towards Gu Qing Shan while barking loudly:
Wolf wolf! Woof woof woof!
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, this ‘Wolf of Death’ rushed straight into Gu Qing Shan’s lap.
