The Doomsday Necropolis.
A mass of white light was rapidly flying through the sky and swiftly flew across the entire Doomsday Necropolis.
The white light finally stopped at the North Pole before manifesting into form.
———the glowing cloaked skeleton.
It had once again returned and meticulously searched the entire Doomsday Necropolis.
Starting from the Northwest region, over half of the Doomsday Necropolis had been destroyed by their battle, so only a few of the slumbering Apocalypses at the North Pole remained.
Gu Qing Shan had brought the body part of the frozen corpse away from this place.
The glowing cloaked skeleton fell silent.
After a long while, it finally muttered to itself:
[It seems that after obtaining one of the frozen corpse’s body parts, he would be able to utilize its power… although it would only be a single time…]
It had suffered quite a bit from the barrage of punches earlier.
It wasn’t until the frozen corpse’s power was used up and the punches disappeared that it finally managed to escape.
Very fortunately, each one of those punches was extremely weak.
Otherwise…
The glowing cloaked skeleton turned around and looked towards the large wall of Apocalypses.
It hesitated for a while before quickly approaching the wall and pressed its hand on it.
—-I’ve already absorbed power from it once during the battle earlier, if I absorb its power again, I’d be completely unable to trigger these Apocalypses to destroy the infinite worlds.
However.
The frozen corpse is more important.
Furthermore, no one knows that other than myself who had actually entered the Reality Gate, there was also…
But it had also received considerable damage within the River of Time and was now currently working towards that matter.
If I move too slowly——-
The glowing cloaked skeleton suddenly declared:
[How detestable, I can’t wait any longer. After I kill that guy, it wouldn’t be too late for me to summon the original and destroy everything!]
Following its voice, the entire Apocalyptic wall completely collapsed into distorted images.
All of these images continuously entered the glowing cloaked skeleton’s body.
Shockwaves spread from underneath its feet to form storm-force gusts of wind that blew in every direction.
[AAAAAHHHH!!!]
The glowing cloaked skeleton’s body gave off a continuous cracking noise during the entire process as all of its joints grew at a ridiculous rate, causing its entire body to enlarge until it was almost the size of a giant.
Compared to before, not only had it grown significantly larger, the white glow around its body had also solidified to almost become flesh that hung like scraps from various parts on its bones.
The glowing cloaked skeleton looked around.
[Regretfully, this world… no longer has any reason to exist]
It clenched its fists tightly and violently struck the ground.
The white light filled every direction.
Rumble rumble——–
With this single punch, the entire Doomsday Necropolis collapsed and completely disappeared into the void of space, leaving nothing behind.
The world then collapsed, which was replaced by the dark Space Vortex.
The glowing cloaked skeleton stood in the void and uttered a resounding roar:
[All sentient living beings shall turn into an illusion in front of my eyes!]
It turned into a streak of white light and shot into the distance, instantly disappearing into the dark void of space.
…
Meanwhile.
Gu Qing Shan was also rapidly flying through the dark void of space.
“Huh?”
He furrowed his eyebrows.
For some reason, he felt a sense of unease in his mind.
A dark shadow was continuously plaguing him, almost like it was informing him of some unknown danger.
What could it be?
Gu Qing Shan shook his head and temporarily discarded this thought.
According to the skull gauntlets, he would reach the next frozen corpse body part very soon.
Gu Qing Shan used [Ground Shrink] to vanish from where he stood.
After traversing a few thousand miles, he abruptly appeared inside a tattered old airship.
This airship had clearly been wrecked for a very long time and drifted through the Space Vortex for countless years.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and sensed it.
——-there are no mistakes, it’s here.
Shroud was quite creative.
He had actually hidden a body part of the frozen corpse inside the wreckage of a Technological spaceship.
Then, where exactly is it?
Gu Qing Shan paced around the airship, carefully sensing every corner.
——after he obtained the frozen corpse’s bone, his ability to sense the frozen corpse had gotten much more sensitive, capable of pinpointing the body part within a smaller area.
Gu Qing Shan abruptly stopped and made his way towards the cockpit.
—–all the technological components and materials had already been stripped bare, leaving only the empty metallic walls behind.
Gu Qing Shan stopped in front of one of the walls.
Indeed, it was inside the wall.
Gu Qing Shan took out the Earth sword and cut open the wall like tofu.
He found a bone fragment as small as his fingernail embedded inside the wall.
A bone fragment?
Would such a small piece could also be considered a body part of the frozen corpse?
Gu Qing Shan confusedly thought to himself.
The bone fragment had also sensed his existence and began to hover by itself as it approached him.
Clack!
The bone fragment fell on top of his skull gauntlet and perfectly fit into a certain position.
A screen was projected from the gauntlets to gradually form a vision.
——seems like this bone fragment has activated some sort of technique embedded on the gauntlets!
Gu Qing Shan took a step back to carefully watch it.
Only to see Shroud appearing in the middle of the vision with a serious expression.
[Yes, it isn’t a body part of the frozen corpse, but only a small bone fragment]
[This was because when I created the six Sealing Tokens to bury the six body parts of the frozen corpse, I had suddenly recognized an omen from the future]
[To avoid affecting the future, I had specifically used a piece of the frozen corpse’s bone fragment to record this premonition. After this, I will immediately remove this piece of memory]
[Rhode, this matter will require extreme caution, I cannot tell you anything, or a certain possibility will disappear and cause things to become irreversible]
[I thought of only one way to inform you]
[That is—–]
[For you to witness it yourself]
As soon as he said those words, the entire vision vanished.
Countless glowing runes abruptly appeared on the skull gauntlets and surrounded Gu Qing Shan.
Briefly sensing it, Gu Qing Shan instantly understood.
This was a teleportation circle!
Shroud had established a teleportation circle here!
What exactly did he want to tell me?
From the void of space, Shroud’s voice spoke in a discontinuous manner:
[… Personally witness… the event that you and I did not notice in the future…]
[Hurry, or it will be too late!]
The runes began to give off an even more intense glow.
Pah——-
Gu Qing Shan vanished within the glorious light.
…
A lush, green mountain.
On the banks of a lake, numerous buildings were built into the curvature of the mountain, drawing a beautiful mystical scenery.
Lapis roof tiling, brick walls, lights flickering in and out of sight.
The spirit energy felt like a moist wind that gently fluttered through the various trees in the main courtyard.
Hundreds of flowers were blooming all at once.
Suddenly——-
From the void of space, boundless radiance manifested to form a closed rune before they swiftly scattered.
Gu Qing Shan appeared.
He first released his inner sight to examine his surroundings.
A second later, he was completely stunned.
He noticed that the Light Chaser ring he was wearing gave off a faint vibration before instantly going silent again.
Lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War God UI:
[You’ve arrived in the 900 million World Layers]
[The Fraudulent Exclusivity function of the Light Chaser ring had activated]
[This ability had taken advantage of the connection between the Laws of Reality to manifest a disguising fluctuation that will allow you to stay in the same region of Reality as your past self]
[This will make your actions significantly more convenient without needing to fear being erased by the Three Great Laws of Reality]
[Attention, the only issue is that you can’t let your past self witness you, otherwise, the disguise would become undone]
A certain thought popped up in Gu Qing Shan’s mind.
Suddenly, a figure hurriedly ran over and exclaimed full of emotions: “Third brother!”
Gu Qing Shan turned around.
Only to see a doll-like young girl with a ponytail hairstyle with eyes full of spirit as well as an expression mixed with fear and joy in her eyes.
Xiu Xiu!
It’s really Xiu Xiu!
In other words, I’ve truly returned!
Two more figures quickly arrived, Wan Er and Qing Rou.
Wan Er first cautiously pulled Xiu Xiu back before carefully examining Gu Qing Shan.
“It’s him”
Qing Rou also observed Gu Qing Shan closely before whispering.
After observing Gu Qing Shan for a bit more, Wan Er also said with a confused tone: “It truly is him, but how come he’s still——-”
“Shh—–” Qing Rou cut her off.
They both greeted Gu Qing Shan: “Third Brother, you’ve returned!”
Gu Qing Shan regained his calm, feeling nothing but joy in his heart.
“Ahaha, Xiu Xiu, long time no see, come here and let brother carry you”
Xiu Xiu naturally rushed towards him, who he received with open arms before happily spinning her around, then finally placed her on his shoulder.
“Third Brother you dummy, you disappeared for so long” Xiu Xiu pursed her lips and complained.
“Ah, so many things have happened, but it’s all senior brother’s fault, so let brother make you all some spirit cooking tonight” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Xiu Xiu happily raised her eyebrows while gulping her saliva: “Really?”
“Really! Let’s make a really big meal!” Gu Qing Shan patted his chest.
Xiu Xiu cheered.
Gu Qing Shan asked Qing Rou: “Junior sister, where are Second Brother and Eldest Brother? And where is Shifu?”
Qing Rou approached him and explained: “Second Brother is still cultivating on the kite, Eldest Brother had gone off-world together with Shifu”
Gu Qing Shan looked up and sure enough, there was a kite in the sky.
Qin Xiao Lou was sitting on the kite with his eyes closed, pretending like he was cultivating while discreetly waving his hand to Gu Qing Shan.
“Junior brother, you’re finally back, want to get a drink between us brothers tonight?”
He sent his voice.
“Of course” Gu Qing Shan replied, then casually sensed Qin Xiao Lou’s state.
Qin Xiao Lou’s cultivation is——-
Hah, ok, let’s not talk about it.
But aside from his cultivation, Qin Xiao Lou now also carries a few different kinds of presence on his body.
It seems he has improved in other places.
Xiu Xiu, Wan Er, and Qing Rou as well, everyone had advanced considerably in their cultivation.
——that’s great, regardless of anything else, these junior sisters of mine and senior brother are still safe.
However——
The white goose is Shifu’s incarnation who would usually remain in the sect while she’s outside, both to protect the sect and to guide everyone during their cultivation.
How come the white goose was gone as well this time?
Gu Qing Shan’s eyebrows suddenly twitched.
How unexpected, Shroud had actually hidden a body part of the frozen corpse on the Shen Wu world.
In that case, I would be able to witness the unspeakable event that Shroud had mentioned without delaying my search for the frozen corpse’s body parts.
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit more assured and smiled, before asking: “Qing Rou, has anything significant occurred lately? Oh right, what exactly is Shifu busy with?”
Qing Rou was a sharp person, so she quickly realized his unease with just a glance at his expression.
“Third Brother, this matter was supposed to be hidden from others, but it naturally couldn’t be hidden from you—–”
“Shifu was originally making preparations for the Samsara Clash for Supremacy, but one day, she suddenly said that she had something important to take care of and brought Eldest Brother with her. She hasn’t returned since then” Qing Rou explained.
“What did you just say!?” Gu Qing Shan exclaimed in shock.
