Chapter 784 - The New Identity

Translator: La0o9  Editor: La0o9

The early morning sun shined.

The thousand-mile long river below was dyed in a glorious brilliance.

Gu Qing Shan stood within the Cold Jade Forest and gestured with his hand.

The 16 Divine Guards stopped.

The figure of light spoke: 「 They should stop here, there is no need for too many Divinities to know the identity of our human spy 」

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the 16 Divine Guards.

They all knelt down on one knee: 「 Sire, let us accompany and protect you 」

Gu Qing Shan smirked: “None of you are as powerful as I am, no need to follow me. Instead, keep a close eye on that human female cultivator for me. Do not allow anyone who enters the Grand Divine Palace to approach her—– she’s a crucial factor in deciding our Divine race’s future”

「 Understood! 」

The 16 Divine Guards answered at once, turned around, and headed back to the Sky Beyond Heaven.

“Let us continue” Gu Qing Shan told the figure of light.

「 Very well 」 the figure of light said.

They flew deeper into the forest.

A few moments later.

The two of them stopped in front of a large tree.

The figure of light spoke towards the tree: 「 Come out 」

The tree opened up as a middle-aged cultivator came out.

He kept a long beard, wore a Daoist garb, and gave off a vague sense of authority.

He seemed to be someone who has been in charge of other people’s life and death for a long period of time.

The Daoist cautiously looked at the figure of light, then at Gu Qing Shan and asked doubtfully: “Venerable Gods, I seem to have never met you before”

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the figure of light.

The figure of light explained: 「 To conceal this from the top cultivators of humanity, and even from the Desolate race, we have planted people in the most important positions within humanity 」

「 Unless absolutely necessary, these people normally do not contact or have any relations with us. Furthermore, without the appropriate token, regardless if they faced a human or a Divinity, they would not recognize their orders 」

“Then what do they recognize?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The figure of light took out a coin and tossed it to the cultivator.

The cultivator received the coin, then carefully checked it before relaxing his stance.

Gu Qing Shan was shocked.

——-so they recognize the coin.

This middle-age cultivator quickly knelt down in front of the figure of light and Gu Qing Shan, speaking anxiously: “Your humble servant the sect master of Drifting Moon Immortal Sect, Zhao Wu Zong, greets the venerable Gods”

The figure of light told Gu Qing Shan: 「 This is Zhao Wu Zong, someone hidden within the Drifting Moon Immortal Sect for a long time. He very rarely appeared in the world or had any relations with cultivators of the same rank, so no one would suspect you if you used his identity 」

Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan ordered Zhao Wu Zong: “Stand”

“Understood”

“We have a use for you”

“How can this humble servant serve you?”

The figure of light replied: 「 I will perform a spell on both you and this Divinity to let him take your appearance and your identity to accomplish something. During this time, you need to hide away and not reveal yourself 」

As the Drifting Moon Immortal Sect master Zhao Wu Zong heard that, his expression slowly became calm.

And here I thought it would be something difficult.

Turns out only my identity is required.

That’s simple, I only need to hide somewhere for a few days.

“This humble servant understands” he loudly declared.

The figure of light reached both hands out and said: 「 Come, each of you take one of my hands 」

Gu Qing Shan took his hand.

Zhao Wu Zong also followed his order.

The figure of light explained to Gu Qing Shan: 「 This is a technique that uses the power of Laws to change your appearance, giving you this human cultivator’s appearance and aura. But do not worry, your power will remain exactly the same. I had even specifically chosen this human cultivator, someone who had the power of Elemental Water and ice 」

“Then how should I regain my original appearance?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

「 This is an imitation of a high-level concealment technique from the Bygone Era humanity. It is endlessly useful but without any restrictions. If you want to return to normal, simply dispel it with force 」the figure of light told him.

He continued to explain: 「 The only thing you must pay attention to is that our Divine race does not use the human’s inner sight. What we use is direct telepathy, so if you run into other cultivators, make sure not to expose yourself on this 」

Gu Qing Shan kept that noted and grinned: “Then I’m assured”

While talking, he was gradually turning into the middle-aged cultivator.

Gu Qing Shan waved his hand in the air to create a mirror of ice.

Looking at himself in the mirror, he found that he looked exactly the same as the cultivator.

But I’m still the God of Frost and Chill in essence.

Hmm… one step worse than the [Mystery of All Beings Equal].

Gu Qing Shan then walked in front of Zhao Wu Zong.

“Give all of your personal items to me” Gu Qing Shan ordered.

“Huh? Ah, yes, venerable God”

Zhao Wu Zong was surprised briefly before responding.

He took off all of his items as well as Inventory Bags, only when he reached for the frost Blade at this side was he a bit hesitant.

This was the most precious Blade of the sect, something of immeasurable value.

Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan scoffed: “I don’t want your garbage items. I’m only taking them with me to pretend to be you more effectively”

After a bit of thought, he summoned the Frostlie Long Staff and showed it to Zhao Wu Zong.

——this was the God of Frost and Chill’s weapon, a true Divine Armament.

This was thanks to this staff that Gu Qing Shan managed to learn the God of Frost and Chill’s skills.

As soon as he Frostlie Long Staff was taken out, Zhao Wu Zong opened his eyes wide.

He was an Elemental Water cultivator.

This staff constantly manifests countless mystical Ice-type Laws, I’ve benefited greatly just by looking at it for a few seconds.

If I could touch this staff, even without cultivating at all, my comprehension of Ice-type Laws would easily break through.

Zhao Wu Zong deeply sighed.

That’s true, the Divinity’s weapon is so powerful, how could my Blade even catch the Divinity’s eyes?

——such powerful weapons, such great power, isn’t that exactly why I obey the Divinities in the first place?

He took off the Blade, knelt down on one knee and presented it to Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan took the Blade, then tossed him the staff, casually saying: “Keep that safe for me”

Zhao Wu Zong hurriedly caught the Frostlie Long Staff and doubtfully asked: “Venerable God, what do you mean?”

“I will take your identity, weapon, and items for a while, your repayment is looking after that staff for a few days” Gu Qing Shan smiled.

Zhao Wu Zong joyfully spoke: “Praise o’ venerable God! Praise o’ venerable God!”

“You don’t need to”

Saying so, Gu Qing Shan swung the Blade in his hand towards Zhao Wu Zong.

Zhao Wu Zong’s expression warped, but found that the Frostlie Long Staff in his hands had already frozen him solid without a sound.

Sha!

A cold flash of the Blade.

Zhao Wu Zong was cut in half and killed on the spot.

The figure of light questioned: “「 Why did you kill him? 」

“My identity is too important, only a dead man can preserve the secret of who I am” Gu Qing Shan replied.

——-indeed, compared to the safety of the Divine King, a dead spy is nothing.

Not to mention, this is only a phantom image, him dying or not doesn’t change a thing.

The figure of light nodded and waved his hand towards Zhao Wu Zong’s body.

The severed body was absorbed into the void of space and disappeared without a trace.

Gu Qing Shan glanced over at the War God UI.

A few glowing lines of text quickly appeared:

[Your own strength is vastly inferior to Zhao Wu Zong]

[But because you acted as the God of Frost and Chill]

[And furthermore because you acted as Zhao Wu Zong himself]

[This Soul Points obtained from the battle cannot be considered using your strength alone]

Gu Qing Shan directly told the System: “Just take however much you want and leave some for me, no need to make excuses”

The System remained silent for a few moments.

[Ting]!

A single line notification popped up on the UI:

[You obtained 5 Soul Points]

5 Soul Points!?

The fuck, that was a sect master I killed, do you know the meaning of ‘restraint’!?

Gu Qing Shan silently complained.

The System immediately answered: [Don’t forget, during the Divinity’s inheritance ceremony, I used a lot of Soul Points in advance]

Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to give up.

——yes, it actually did do quite a bit, otherwise, at that time I wouldn’t have been able to both obtain the secret and the way to increase my Card grade.

Hah, I can only hope that I’ll be able to get a bit more Soul Points next time…

While he was thinking that, the figure of light took out two more coins and gave them to him.

The figure of light carefully explained: 「 This coin is specifically made to warp you into the Desolate world. Simply go to the border between the two worlds and activate this coin, you will be transported into the Desolate world 」

「 The other coin is the Primordial Heaven Realm warp coin, if you activate it, you will immediately return 」

「 Remember, you can only use each coin once 」

Gu Qing Shan looked carefully at the two coins, a bit curious.

They were quite different.

The Desolate world warp coin had a unique, rarely seen style and shape that appeared to be really ancient.

As for the Primordial Heaven Realm warp coin, it was made to the same style and material as the coins he saw in the Strife Zones.

The figure of light asked: 「 Do you have any questions about these two coins? 」

Gu Qing Shan went quiet and didn’t say anything.

——–I don’t know anything about the coins.

Is the difference between these coins a secret, or common sense that every Divinity knows about?

Without confirming it, anything he asked carried a certain level of danger.

Gu Qing Shan’s mind quickly moved and skipped this question, instead, asking in return: “Are you going to come with me?”

——this was another very crucial question.

Hearing his question, as expected, the figure of light shook his head: 「 I do not have a real body, I cannot turn into a human to infiltrate the Desolate world. And since I am the collective consciousness of countless Divinities, once I appear inside the Desolate world, the Lord of Desolation would immediately sense me 」

“Then you can return and look after that human female cultivator for me, don’t let anyone disturb her creation of the jade disk” Gu Qing Shan replied.

「… Very well 」the figure of light replied.

Gu Qing Shan emphasized: “Not even the Golden Flame Divinity!”

The figure of light hesitated briefly.

Gu Qing Shan came forward and whispered by the figure of light’s ear: “The Golden Flame Divinity only cares about the future. Besides asking us for help, he brings no benefit to our current Divine race as a whole”

He continued: “This king lives in this era, my desire is to make Heaven serve the Divinities of this era, to use this sword to change the destiny of this era’s Divinities!”

The figure of light became silent.

Gu Qing Shan continued: “You represent the will of countless Divinities of this era, tell me. Do the Divinities of this era want the Golden Flame Divinity’s future or their own present?”

The figure of light stopped hesitating and nodded: 「 I understand, I shall watch over that human female cultivator, not letting anyone touch her 」

Gu Qing Shan backed away, pleased.

16 Divine Guards, all the Divinities of the Sky Beyond Heaven, and now the figure of light——— with so many Divinities protecting Luo Bing Li, Gu Qing Shan didn’t believe that the Golden Flame Divinity would be able to kidnap Luo Bing Li in front of their eyes.

Now I can go to the Desolate world without worries.

He placed the frost Blade on his hip and briefly recalled Zhao Wu Zong’s expressions and demeanor.

“I’m going”

A cluster of icy mist appeared around Gu Qing Shan and enveloped him as he disappeared from the figure of light’s sight.
