Black skeletons were mindlessly crawling all over the ground.

Only Gu Qing Shan and a single piece of scale armor silently floated in front of the bronze pillar.

“Yes” Gu Qing Shan spoke with conviction, “from its eyes, I could tell that it knew who I was”

The giant corpse stopped briefly

“But now that the monster is dead, there’s no way to know what happened now. And I have one piece of advice for you” he said.

“Go ahead”

“Before you become strong, don’t go looking into secrets that you don’t have control over”

Gu Qing Shan went silent.

Indeed, the situation just now was far from the limit of what I could deal with.

If it weren’t for the divine armor, or the Earth sword risking its life with one strike, or the Six Paths Great Mountain sword’s characteristic—— if even one of those were missing, I would’ve already died.

And it wouldn’t have just been me alone, but the corpse wouldn’t have been able to escape as well.

Gu Qing Shan sighed and calmly said: “Truthfully speaking, all of my recent encounters are all like this, every moment needed me to use all my power, wit and means just to have a slim hope of survival, the root cause of which is because I’m simply still too weak”

The giant corpse agreed: “No matter which world it is, being weak is the only sin, only by becoming strong can you better survive”

Gu Qing Shan said: “Which is why after this, when everything has been dealt with, I’ll have to find a way to get stronger—– I’ll do everything to become stronger!”

The giant corpse asked: “What’s been happening recently outside?”

“Quite a lot actually…”

Gu Qing Shan told him about some of the most recent events.

“So the [Demon King Order] appeared huh…” the giant corpse sighed.

“That’s right, I’ve already killed every demonized, I won’t let it escape from this world” Gu Qing Shan said.

“That’s good, otherwise if it was allowed to meet up with the main [Order] from the Fallen Zones, it’ll continue to evolve further” the giant corpse said.

“I’ll let it destroy itself within that closed-off world” Gu Qing Shan said.

“Destroy the [Order]? What do you plan to do?”

“I said it just now, I’ve killed all the demonized”

“Which evolution is the [Demon King Order] at now?”

“It’s currently evolving into [Revolution]”

“Then you won’t kill it that way”

“Hm?” Gu Qing Shan froze.

The giant corpse patiently explained: “Yes, as many now know, when it’s still in its [Kindling] or [Origin] stage, as long as no catalyst exists for the [Order], the [Order] will disappear”

“But when an [Order] reaches [Revolution] stage, it won’t be that easy to destroy it”

“Without a carrier, it’ll simply enter a dormant state, using as little energy as possible to ensure its own survival until a new carrier appears”

“This is a secret that not many in the entire 900 million World Layers knows about. Now that I’ve told you, you have to keep it a secret and not tell anyone else, otherwise…”

The giant corpse stayed silent and said nothing else.

“…Then it’s fortunate that I came to see you” Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth: “Is there any way to destroy it now?”

“Why do you need to do that? Does it already consider you an arch-enemy?” the giant corpse asked him back.

“Yes” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“…”

The giant corpse went silent for a while.

Apparently, he was considering something extremely important.

After a while.

A piece of black scale peeled off from the armor and flew in front of Gu Qing Shan.

The black layer then proceeded to break off to reveal a small silver box.

As he looked at this silver box, Gu Qing Shan felt a sense of solemnity.

“Inside that Triste’s collection world, were there any light?” the corpse asked.

“Light?”

“Yes, natural light”

“There is, above the clouds”

“Then that’s enough, take this box with you. When [Revolution] completes its evolution, as soon as it appears, take this box and throw it above the clouds” the giant corpse seriously told him.

Following his words, the silver box landed in Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

“Do you have any means to conceal it? On your way back, you have to make sure that it doesn’t get exposed” the giant corpse asked.

“I have a soul-bound Inventory Bag, will that be enough?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“It will be good enough, put it in there by itself, make sure to not let anything get close to it. Make sure that you don’t open it until you use it” the giant corpse told him.

Gu Qing Shan followed his words and neatly put the silver box away.

“What’s in the box?” he asked.

“A beacon”

“A beacon?”

“Yes, it can summon the [Demon King Order]’s natural enemy—— an [Order] that’s also at the third stage, if they ever meet each other in the same world, they will engage in a mutually destructive combat and kill each other”

“You definitely can’t tell anyone about this, the only thing you can tell them is that you’ve killed all the demonized, got it?”

“Got it”

The giant corpse was still worried so he reminded Gu Qing Shan again: “Make sure that under no circumstances will you ever mention a single word about this. Otherwise, even if you could escape the [Demon King Order]’s pursuit, even more, terrifying creatures will come after you”

“Alright, don’t worry, I at least know how to keep my mouth shut” Gu Qing Shan also seriously replied.

At this time, Gu Qing Shan began to feel a faint sense of rejection.

The world itself was rejecting him.

But there were still a lot of mysteries that haven’t been solved, and more things he still wanted to ask the giant corpse.

“I have to leave now” he said.

“Hm, after you leave, I’ll have to fix up my body and think of a way to conceal this world, that’ll be quite a bit of work” the giant corpse told him.

“Can I only come here whenever I breakthrough?” he asked.

“Correct”

“But the last time I went to Huang Quan, I was able to end up here—–”

The corpse stopped him: “When you faked death to come here last time, it was a dangerous situation on its own, I’ve just never told you about it”

“Not to mention, now that the situation has changed, you shouldn’t carelessly attempt to get here”

“The safest method is still me leading your soul vessel here whenever you breakthrough a realm”

Gu Qing Shan could only nod.

The force acting on him became stronger and stronger, pulling his soul back into his body.

I’m about to leave—-

All of a sudden, Gu Qing Shan recalled something important.

He immediately asked: “I still have a question, what is a world tomb?”

“A world tomb? So you even know about that huh?” the giant corpse was surprised to hear that.

“My time’s almost up!”

“Sure, I’ll tell you”

“When the Gods created the world, occasionally they would make a mistake and create a few inexplicable objects”

“Because they were created with the combined efforts of several Gods, some of them are particularly powerful, a few other are peculiar and unreasonable, and there are even some creations that even the Gods are afraid of”

“A lot of these failed creations are destroyed by the Gods”

“But similarly, a lot of these creations simply can’t be destroyed even by the same Gods that created them”

“So the Gods have no choice but to think of a way to seal away these strange and powerful creations away, hiding them where they won’t be easily discovered to avoid them from messing up the order of the worlds”

Gu Qing Shan asked: “What are those creations then?”

“No one knows, only when you open a world tomb will you know exactly what’s inside—– perhaps it could be a book, or a weapon, a life form, it could possibly even be an incomplete world. Simply said, there’s no telling what you’ll find inside a world tomb, because the Gods never said anything about them when they hid them away”

“Basically, the creations that the Gods sealed and threw away are usually hidden in locations where they aren’t meant to be found, which are called ‘world tombs’ as a whole”

Gu Qing Shan was shocked.

He still remembers the conversation he had with the War God System.

[You’ve moved away from the world tomb]

“What’s a world tomb?”

[What you call Reality]

“Why did you call it that?”

The War God System didn’t answer him and only stayed silent.

So a world tomb was hidden inside Reality!

Was that really the case?

At this time, the force acting on Gu Qing Shan’s soul vessel became stronger and stronger.

He was about to leave this world!

“One last thing!” Gu Qing Shan suddenly shouted.

“Quickly, you don’t have much time” the giant corpse urged him.

“How do I become stronger faster?”

The giant corpse quickly answered: “Go to the Strife Zones, there’s another [Worlds—-”

Hoh!

Without being able to hear everything, Gu Qing Shan was ejected from the world and pulled back to his body.

He turned into a streak of light that quickly followed the same way back.

“—–Apocalypse Online] there, but it isn’t the [Demon King Order]”

The corpse finished its sentence.

But Gu Qing Shan had already left.
