Chapter 918 - 483: No Beginning Scripture

"No! Don’t!"

Gu Sheng shook his head, "Master Jiang, I’m not leaving, this is all my fault, I can’t just walk away!"

Just then, the outsider suddenly attacked.

His body transformed into a black light, charging straight at Master Jiang and Gu Sheng.

Master Jiang wanted to fight back, but his strength was no longer sufficient to support his actions.

Gu Sheng also realized the danger.

At that moment, his eyes suddenly became resolute.

He must protect Master Jiang and the East Desolation!

"Master Jiang, watch out!"

Gu Sheng shouted, his body suddenly erupted with a tremendous force.

This force surged from the Life Spring within him, seemingly automatically drawing upon the Mystic Yellow Power, directly positioning Gu Sheng in front of Master Jiang.

"Move aside!"

The outsider shouted in response.

But Gu Sheng’s mind was made up, no matter how the outsider yelled at him, Gu Sheng remained steadfast.

"Come on!"

Gu Sheng gritted his teeth, preparing for the final showdown.

"Chichi!"

The black light suddenly became brighter and brighter, making it almost impossible for Gu Sheng to see what was happening ahead.

Meanwhile, a scorching sensation hit him, more intense than in the Fire Domain.

Driven by instinct, Gu Sheng raised his arm to shield himself.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud explosion rang out.

Gu Sheng slowly opened his eyes, realizing the outsider’s attack had not hit him but had veered towards the nearby mountain.

The mountain, hit by the massive impact, lost dozens of meters from its peak, and cracks appeared all over!

"This..."

Gu Sheng was stunned, turning to see the outsider surrounded by black mist.

"Ah..."

The outsider screamed in agony.

"What... What is happening?"

Gu Sheng was dumbfounded, standing there in shock.

"You brat! You saved me just now! Now you’ve destroyed me! I shouldn’t have withdrawn my power!"

The outsider looked at Gu Sheng, shouting angrily.

"Gu Sheng’s triumph, Gu Sheng’s failure."

Master Jiang spoke slowly from the side.

Gu Sheng turned his head, puzzled, and asked, "Master Jiang, what on earth is going on?"

"Ah! It’s all destiny... destiny!"

Master Jiang sighed, a hint of regret in his eyes.

"Destiny?"

Gu Sheng was even more puzzled.

Then, Master Jiang slowly opened his mouth and said, "Gu Sheng, do you know, the reason the outsider suffered such backlash is precisely because his power is too strong, yet he himself couldn’t fully control it. When he saw you standing in front of him, instinctively wanting to retract his power, he was unexpectedly hit by his own force during the process of retracting."

"This... hit by his own power? Because of me?"

Gu Sheng furrowed his brows, then turned his head to look at the outsider.

At this moment, he was ensnared by black mist, his expression filled with agony, his heart a mix of feelings.

Gu Sheng muttered to himself, "Ah, so it’s because I stood up that he was hit by his own power."

"Yes, Gu Sheng’s triumph, Gu Sheng’s failure, this saying is absolutely true."

Master Jiang nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, the black mist surrounding the outsider grew more intense.

Immediately afterward, his body began to tremble violently.

"Just you wait! I will return!"

The outsider shouted fiercely, then his body gradually dissipated, transforming into a black light, flying towards the side.

Gu Sheng watched the direction the black light flew, which was exactly the spot where he had previously picked up that piece of Ancient Jade.

Unexpectedly, that was his hiding place!

Gu Sheng swiftly moved forward and picked up the Ancient Jade.

"Damn it!"

After speaking, Gu Sheng grabbed a nearby stone and fiercely smashed it against the Ancient Jade.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The loud impact echoed, seemingly shaking the entire space.

Yet, the furious strikes against the Ancient Jade left it completely unscathed, not even a scratch.

"This hard?"

Gu Sheng remarked incredulously.

Master Jiang shook his head and said, "Gu Sheng, it’s useless, this piece of Ancient Jade was formed by the outsider’s amassed cultivation, incredibly hard, impervious to human destruction."

"Then can he come out again?"

Gu Sheng asked unwillingly.

"He can, but it depends on the timing. Although the outsider’s power is sealed within the Ancient Jade, his consciousness hasn’t completely vanished. As soon as a suitable opportunity arises, he might awaken again."

Master Jiang said worriedly.

Gu Sheng tightened his grip on the Ancient Jade, knowing it was not only the outsider’s sealed place but also his only hope of regaining freedom.

Whether it’s years from now or centuries later when the seal is broken, it would still be a massive threat to the entire East Desolation.

"I need to find a way to destroy it completely!"

Gu Sheng exclaimed determinedly while staring at the Ancient Jade, then turned to ask, "Master Jiang, is there no other way to shatter it?"

Master Jiang tilted his body slightly, trying not to aggravate his wound.

But as soon as he shifted, a pool of black blood immediately spread over the ground.

"Master Jiang! This..."

Gu Sheng hurriedly approached to examine Master Jiang’s injury.

Master Jiang sighed softly, "Alas! It’s all fate, no need to worry."

"Fate? What fate or not, I’m going to heal you now."

Gu Sheng said, preparing to channel Divine Power to heal Master Jiang.

Master Jiang pulled Gu Sheng to his side, wearing a relaxed smile, and said, "Gu Sheng, don’t waste your strength, that wound was pierced by a blade refined by the outsider over millennia, it cannot be healed."

"Then what? Just watch as the wound drains your vitality?"

Gu Sheng frowned, feeling helpless.

"Listen to me!"

Suddenly, Master Jiang’s complexion turned pale, "You are the destined one of this Desolate Domain, your arrival implies the end of my Guardian’s mission."
