————————–
Xiu Xiu opened her eyes wide looking at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan smiled a bit and asked: “Xiu Xiu, take a look at those people gathering in front of our sect. If they could break through Second Brother’s formation, can you guess what would become of Second Brother as well as your two junior sisters?”
Xiu Xiu had already been through plenty of suffering when she was young, so she instantly changed her mind and obediently said: “I’ll leave everything to Third Brother, please be careful Third Brother, don’t get hurt”
Gu Qing Shan nodded and stroked her face: “Don’t worry, Third Brother still has a big banquet to make you all later tonight, I won’t get hurt”
He slowly stood up and returned next to Qin Xiao Lou while wielding his sword, his other hand then pressed down on the formation plate.
Oong——-
The spirit energy flow in the formation plate became chaotic, so Qin Xiao Lou was unable to continue arranging the next layer of formations.
Qin Xiao Lou sighed, then shook his numb fingers and worriedly asked: “Junior brother, will you be able to do it?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve been continuously killing people these past few years, I’m an expert” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Qin Xiao Lou asked with interest: “Really? How are your enemies compared to the people outside?”
Gu Qing Shan frowned with a troubled expression.
“...They can’t really be compared” he finally answered.
Qin Xiao Lou was surprised.
The sound of commotions could be heard outside the sect.
Someone happily called out: “The formation is broken!”
——-without Qin Xiao Lou controlling it, the sect’s protective formation array was instantly destroyed by the barrage of Immortal Crafts.
The cultivators cheered.
The one who broke the formation leapt forward into Bai Hua sect ahead of everyone else.
A few thousand meters away, Gu Qing Shan glanced at him.
Splash!
The cultivator swiftly turned into a mass of blood.
At the very next moment, four more people flew into Bai Hua sect.
Gu Qing Shan’s gaze was cold and curtly glanced at each of them.
Splash splash splash splash!
With four consecutive sounds, the four people were reduced to a mass of blood, then further sliced up by the numerous invisible swords until they were completely erased.
All the cultivators froze.
The cultivators who were about to rush in all stopped themselves and took a defensive posture.
What kind of attack was that?
No one could see for sure.
Those cultivators were killed simply by charging in.
——-not even their scraps remained.
“How impudent for the disciples of Bai Hua sect to kill people in front of everyone!”
Someone angrily shouted.
Gu Qing Shan just grinned and tossed his sword forward.
The sword turned into a streak of light and landed outside Bai Hua sect.
Clink!
The sword pierced the green rock at the fork in the road and remained still.
Gu Qing Shan vanished and reappeared on top of the rock.
Looking at the green rock, his gaze was full of nostalgia.
When he first entered Bai Hua sect, it was Xie Dao Ling’s white goose incarnation who stood on top of this rock and gave out the test that allowed him to take part in the later trials and ended up entering the sect.
He reorganized his emotions and clasped his fist towards the cultivators around him, smiling amicably:
“Everyone, I am the third disciple of Bai Hua sect, sword cultivator Gu Qing Shan”
“My senior brother had certainly made a mistake today—- since he was such a kind person. I really have to apologize to you all regarding this”
“It’s now my turn to host the official sect inauguration trial”
Listening to him, the cultivators all appeared wary.
Bai Hua sword cultivator, Gu Qing Shan.
This name originated from the semester examination of several years ago, became famous during the war of spirits beast, then made great contributions during the exploration process of Shen Wu world, but afterwards, he seemed to have disappeared.
Apparently he left the world.
It was said that Blade Saint Ning Yue Chan had met him briefly during her travels to the outside world.
But considering who Ning Yue Chan was, no one would force her to confess anything regarding Gu Qing Shan, so no one knew exactly what happened to him.
The Paragon realm old man tried asking: “Then are the rules of Bai Hua sect today to mercilessly slaughter the innocent?”
——as long as this sword cultivator is forced to admit this, the reputation of Bai Hua sect would become smudged, which would make it easier to slander them and go even beyond that.
But how could Gu Qing Shan fall for such a simple trick?
He just smirked and replied: “It’s not mercilessly kill the innocent, I told you that I’m here today to host the trial”
“Fellow Dao seekers, listen carefully”
Gu Qing Shan placed his hand on top of his sword and raised his voice: “There’s only one rule. If you can force me to draw this sword, then you’ve passed”
Everyone remained silent.
Gu Qing Shan continued to smile and slowly explained: “Of course, if you can’t even force me to draw my sword before you die, they you deserve it—–”
“Such useless garbage aren’t even worthy of approaching the Bai Hua sect even if they die ten thousand times over, because they won’t even be comparable to specks of dust”
As he finished his words, the surrounding was so silent that you could hear a pin drop.
The cultivators exchanged glances, then couldn’t help themselves observing him.
He was standing silently on top of the green rock with a faint smile on his face, his sword pierced into the rock right next to where he was standing as he kept one hand on it.
——they couldn’t discern his foundations at all, but he was exuding an omen of death that constantly pricked their spirit senses, it was as if death itself was excited for his existence.
The old man couldn’t help but ask again: “You said——- that we’ll pass if we can force you to draw your sword?”
“That’s right” Gu Qing Shan nodded.
The elder tapped his Inventory Bag and took out two bamboo fans.
——techniques can be used from afar, so there is no need to approach him.
Immortal Crafts are powerful, so I can definitely force him to draw his sword.
No.
If I can use an Immortal Craft, I might even be able to kill him.
“This old man just happens to have a few Immortal Crafts, let me test how much your words actually weigh” the old man looked at Gu Qing Shan with clear killing intent.
After saying that, he started retreating to prepare his attack.
“Wait a moment!” Gu Qing Shan suddenly shouted.
The old man laughed: “Ahaha, what is it? Are you regretting your words already?”
Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively: “No, I just wanted to say that this trial isn’t going to be conducted one by one”
The old man was surprised.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at the surrounding cultivators and told them with a serious tone:
“I still have to cook later tonight, so I can’t waste too much time here. I want everyone who wants to enter Bai Hua sect to charge forward all at once”
Everyone was shocked once again.
They all looked at the sword cultivator, doubting whether or not they heard him wrong.
Gu Qing Shan put up one hand and solemnly declared: “On the count of three, the trial will begin. Whoever can force me to draw my sword will pass the trial and can enter Bai Hua sect”
“Three”
“Two”
“One!”
“You may attack me”
He waited for a short moment.
The cultivators all exchanged glances and started circulating their spirit energy——–
After that short moment, Gu Qing Shan’s lips curved into a smirk and spat out a single word:
“Die”
If time could stop at this very moment, everyone would witness a terrifying scene.
A sharp shadow emerged from behind every cultivator.
These shadows did not appear out of thin air, but seemed like they had grown directly out of each cultivator’s own flesh and blood like the fangs of beasts.
All the shadows swiftly moved around each cultivator and sliced through their bodies numerous times.
Desperate screams and cries continuously resounded.
Followed by silence.
The sharp shadow fangs swiftly closed back up, manifesting into black pillars of bones.
Each of them hung a set of skeletons that were still dripping with blood.
All the cultivators had had their flesh literally scraped away from their bodies, leaving only their bones on the pillar.
The forest of skeletons stood like a scene straight out of hell.
Standing on top of the rock, Gu Qing Shan’s smile remained on his expression as he looked at the skeletons in front of him.
—–Huang Quan Word Hex Divine Skill, [Devil Devour].
This Divine Skill was exceptionally hard to defend against and was made to look horrifying, so it was excellent to scare off people.
“Oh no, everyone is dead. It seems no one will be coming to our Bai Hua sect today”
He lifted his hand from his sword and declared with satisfaction.
Suddenly, a voice called out from the sky: 「 Impudent scoundrel, how dare you kill disciples of my Heavenly inheritance? 」
Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight, only to see a flash of light manifesting from the Heavenly Tower several ten thousand miles away, which took a humanoid form before rapidly flying towards him.
Gu Qing Shan silently waited until that humanoid figure arrived in front of him, then clasped his fist in a casual manner and asked: “Who might you be?”
The humanoid figure shouted: 「 I am a heavenly being of the Heaven realm, here to guide the cultivators of this world. You acted cruelly and murdered the disciples of our Heaven realm, do you know your crime!? 」
Gu Qing Shan replied: “They wanted to enter our sect, so they had to follow my rules and receive the trials of my sect——- they all did it willingly, so what does that have to do with the heavenly beings?”
「 Even so, you did not have to kill them all 」the humanoid figure said.
Gu Qing Shan laughed: “Don’t you remember? It was my Shifu who took you here, so you all should be supporting our Bai Hua sect’s matters, not criticize it”
「 Killing disciples of a Heavenly being is going against the rules of heaven, punishable by death 」the humanoid figure declared and began to exude chilling spirit energy.
Gu Qing Shan sensed it briefly and recognized this sensation.
——-[Moonlight Palace]
Red Wraith’s talisman Immortal Crafts also exuded this same aura.
I wonder what this Heavenly Tower has to do with Red Wraith.
——but then again, that’s not important right now.
Gu Qing Shan grinned and slowly drew the Earth sword from the rock, his voice immediately turned cold:
“What an unreasonable guy—— how about this, once you’ve died completely, I’ll make sure to save a good place in hell for you”
