Chapter 1114: A Secret Truth
“This technique can only persist for another 30 seconds; we need to make this quick”
As soon as Gu Qing Shan said so, the sound of commotion could be heard from outside.
Various noises sounded from both far and near.
“The power fluctuation of the technique is pointing here!” someone suddenly shouted.
Various powerful waves of fluctuation swept towards the small house like wind storms.
The black-cloaked girl had a complicated expression on her face, seemingly struggling to make some sort of choice.
“But I don’t know how to tell you”
She shook her head.
At this point, if it was anyone else, they would understand that she was referring to the fact that 30 seconds seemed too little to actually talk about anything.
But Gu Qing Shan was an experienced person who had seen and been through a lot of things, so he understood the hidden implications behind her words almost immediately.
In this short moment, he felt the other party taking distance from him.
She was physically standing in front of him, but she was also avoiding him.
——-as if she was having a sort of rejection and hesitation.
What exactly caused her attitude to change?
Under this situation, it would most likely be something that’s related to their safety.
Gu Qing Shan quickly returned from his thoughts and said: “You decided to help me earlier, and now you should believe in your decisions”
The two girls looked at him.
Gu Qing Shan put emphasis on his voice: “You weren’t wrong to think of me as your ally, since I will never let comrades who had fought by my side down”
The black-cloaked girl looked at him and stayed silent.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a moment.
A short moment suddenly felt like an eternity, one full of danger.
The commotion outside was growing louder and louder.
Various immense sources of power were approaching.
Xiu——-
The fluctuations of the technique suggested that it was about to end.
The white-cloaked girl whispered a shout: “Big sis, hurry up and decide!”
“I’m going to leave very soon, it might be very tough for us to meet again, later on, give me a chance to help you!” Gu Qing Shan followed up.
Hearing that, the black-cloaked girl seemed to have given in and clenched her teeth: “Damn it, I’ve been very unlucky lately, but I’m going to gamble it all just once!”
With that declaration, Gu Qing Shan felt like she had returned from a distance, no longer hesitant or unsure.
The black-cloaked girl took out a jade tag and quickly formed a hand seal towards it.
“There’s too little time, I can only tell you so much” she said with a very stern tone: “But I need to tell you this before anything else: It’ll be up to you whether or not you read this jade tag. Once you see it, you will no longer be able to live your life as calmly as before, you will surely be drowned in untold despair and confusion”
Saying so, the black-cloaked girl secretly slipped the jade tag to him as she abruptly pushed him away.
Gu Qing Shan fell backward and found himself sitting on the floor of his ship.
The illusory Huang Quan realm had disappeared.
She had pushed him out of the Huang Quan realm fragment world——- or rather, the technique would have run out of time soon, either way.
He had returned.
A faint gentle light illuminated the cabin of the ship.
Gu Qing Shan sat still.
He stayed like that for a while, reviewing each and every statement she uttered.
It was only after he felt that he had understood what she meant did he slowly stand up.
He turned around, saw his body still sitting on the large sofa with both eyes closed and a calm expression on his face.
Silence, all around.
The sound of wind could be heard outside the ship.
It was the wind of the space vortex, a never-ending storm.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the jade tag in his hand.
——-the jade tag gave off the faint fluctuation of a destruction technique.
Gu Qing Shan had already seen such jade tags before.
This jade tag would self-destruct after someone took a look at it once.
What kind of matter would require such a level of secrecy?
Within those few seconds, what kind of information did the black-cloaked girl infuse in here?
Even without reading it, Gu Qing Shan could already sense an eerie and strange truth being hidden inside.
This truth was like a poisonous snake hiding in the darkness, causing cold sweat to emerge just by staring at it.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and returned to his body.
He opened his eyes.
The jade tag was right in his hand.
Should I or should I not take a look?
Gu Qing Shan recalled what she told him in the end:
...
“It’ll be up to you whether or not you read this jade tag. Once you see it, you will no longer be able to live your life as calmly as before, you will surely be drowned in untold despair and confusion”
...
Live my life calmly—-
Gu Qing Shan shook his head and sighed.
As a living being in the age of the Worlds’ Apocalypse, who could truly live calmly and peacefully?
Unless they’re like the Giant of Beginning who lives by hiding away in the layer of clouds.
But the act of living for hundreds of million years by oneself within the layer of clouds itself also requires extraordinary determination and courage; otherwise, you would sooner take your life from going insane.
Gu Qing Shan likely stroked the jade tag in his hand.
After a bit of pause, he slowly infused his spirit energy into it.
The jade tag exuded strand after strand of light that slowly floated into the air, manifesting as a scenery.
The scenery began moving.
...
Under a gloomy grey sky, human cultivators were being lined up for over a thousand meters in a row, their hands tied behind their backs, unable to move.
“Execution!” someone shouted.
The heads of thousands fell at once.
There was nothing around these corpses except a vast desert.
The originally empty desert was now filled with the corpses of cultivators.
A man in a yaksha mask descended from above, asking: “Are they all dead?”
“Reporting, sir, the final group had been executed just now, please confirm our work”
“Hm, I shall”
The man slowly flew above the desert.
At some point, he stopped, picked up a head from the ground, and stared closely at it.
“Junior brother, you were too foolish”
He spoke to the head.
“But now that you are dead, no one shall ever object our ideology ever again”
“We shall turn into wraiths and survive within this Apocalypse, replenish the entire Wraith realm, eventually the entire Samsara, becoming the ruler of all worlds!”
Saying so, he tossed the head to the ground, clasped his hands behind his back, and left.
...
The scenery scattered and reformed itself.
The scene had changed.
A black figure was hovering in the sky.
Around him, countless men in yaksha masks were performing various techniques at the same time.
Someone spoke up: “The Bygone Era humans had forged a powerful Soul Artifact right next to the Eternal Abyss, calling it the sleeping Demon Dragon. We shall create an opportunity for you to reincarnate within that Soul Artifact”
“Understood” the black figure responded.
“Remember well, from this moment on, you are the Demon Dragon, you must ruin their efforts, bring our divine artifacts into the worlds that they created, and chase them away!”
“Please be assured, sirs, I will surely accomplish my mission” the black figure replied.
...
The scene changed again.
A man in a yaksha mask showed up.
He was giving a speech to numerous other comrades of his who were also wearing yaksha masks.
“We shall destroy 908 parallel worlds, using this power to break through the Law of the Void, thus descending into the Eternal Abyss”
“This shall create an unparalleled Fate Corrosion targeting the Eternal Abyss, perhaps even destroying it completely, thus granting us victory in this campaign”
The scene was becoming unstable.
The man’s voice became more excited:
“Just like the fragments of the Samsara that had been conquered and the numerous parallel worlds before that, the Eternal Abyss and the 900 million World Layers shall become our dependent”
“All of their living beings shall be our slaves, worked to the bones while they are alive, their bodies fed as food after their deaths, while their souls reincarnate just to be enslaved again”
“Now, let’s wage our war on the space vortex!”
Everyone resounded with vigor: “Fight!”
...
The scene ended.
Bang——–
The jade tag broke apart and crumbled.
In the short period of 10 seconds, the black-cloaked girl infused a total of three scenes into the jade tag.
Gu Qing Shan went silent without saying a single word.
The ship returned to silence.
Time slowly passed.
Gu Qing Shan finally muttered:
“I had thought it was only a small matter, who could’ve imagined, both the Huang Quan realm and Human realm were actually taking orders from the Wraith realm...”
He took out a ring.
——-the Abyssal ring that Boss gave him.
Gu Qing Shan activated this ring, once again sending the information he obtained to the Eternal Abyss.
