Chapter 387: Reinforcements from the human realm
When Gu Qing Shan saw the small white bird, he quickly realized.
This was the Bladeâs weapon spirit.
As for the dead human from before ââ-
âNo need to look, because I canât swing myself, I had to find a dead person to use meâ the small white bird caught its breath and explained.
âWhich means, the one that did the fighting was actually you?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
âCorrect, I am the Bone-rending Hellspawn Bladeâ
âYou said I have her presence on me, who is she?â
âAh? You mean you didnât meet her? That canât be right, you really do have her presence on youâ the small white bird was surprised.
Gu Qing Shan spoke: âYou mean the blue-dress maid-looking girl? I did meet her, I just donât know who she wasâ
âYou donât know who she was⊠thatâs interesting, since she didnât tell you who she was, I canât arbitrarily tell you eitherâ
The small white bird looked at Gu Qing Shan with considerable intrigue.
Gu Qing Shan didnât bother himself too much with such details.
If you donât want to say it then fine, thereâs more important things to make clear right now.
âThis humble one is Gu Qing Shan, I came from the human realm, pardon me asking but which numbered machine are you?â he clasped his fist and asked.
The small white bird listened with a serious expression, then suddenly opened its eyes wide.
Apparently it couldnât believe he was asking such a thing.
The small white bird landed on the Bladeâs hilt, then pointed at the Blade with its claw: âLook clearly, Iâm a Blade, not a machineâ
Gu Qing Shan froze.
A Blade truly isnât a machine.
âThen does that mean asides from machines, there are other existences in Huang Quan?â he muttered.
âOf course the machines could handle normal management with more efficiency, but if something occurs in Huang Quan, they still need us to show upâ the small white bird pridefully said.
Gu Qing Shan asked further: âI want to ask you, just what exactly is the situation in Huang Quan?â
âAbout that, I donât ââââ the small white bird said.
Gu Qing Shan cut it off: âI know that you canât say it, but at least tell me about where some of the important things happened, Iâll go there and take a look myselfâ
These creatures and things in Huang Quan keep refusing to tell me anything.
Gu Qing Shan was already tired of hearing that.
The small white bird hesitated.
âIâm here for the sake of the human realm, please lend a handâ Gu Qing Shan pursued.
The small white bird: âYou came from the human realm? So you already met those machines?â
âIn reality, only 4 of them made it to the human realm in one pieceâ Gu Qing Shan answered.
He then retold the situation of the machines that came.
The small white bird spoke excitedly: âThat means, you really are reinforcement from the human realm?â
ReinforcementâŠ
Reinforcement from the human realmâŠ
Gu Qing Shan was speechless.
Why does that sound so wrong?
I used to look forward to getting reinforcements from Huang Quan.
But now it has ended up that the weapons of Huang Quan are looking for reinforcements from the human realmâŠ
Gu Qing Shan sighed and replied without much motivation: âThatâs right, I guess I amâ
The small white bird spoke: âHow can I help you then?â
âI need to know what exactly happened in Huang Quanâ Gu Qing Shan replied curtly.
The small white bird stayed silent for a while with a complicated expression before telling him: âActually, that terrifying thing that happened, well it happened suddenly, and at the time ââ-â
âYes?â
âI was sleepingâ
ââŠâ
Seeing Gu Qing Shanâs indescribable expression as he heard that, the small white bird hurriedly explained: âSince the 88 machines are there, the management of Huang Quan was always neat and orderly, itâs been a very long time since they needed such an ancient weapon like meâ
It spreads its wings and tapped its head: âSo I was kinda a bit too relaxed⊠aâŠha ha..â
Which means, the bird doesnât actually know what happened.
âThen what about how you and the dead person cooperated?â
âAh, that only happened 2 days ago, I can tell you thatâ
âThen pleaseâ
âWhen the crisis came to Huang Quan, the dead people of hells were split into two factions, one of them supported joining hands with the demons to thoroughly destroy Huang Quan and escape from the suffering of hellâ
âThe other faction wanted to fight against the demons, hoping to save Huang Quan and use the Merit from that to atone for their sins and reincarnate quickerâ
The small white bird added: âAs a weapon of Huang Quan, of course I support the latter faction and fought together with themâ
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
If thatâs the case, the chaotic situation from before can be explained.
Just now, he had to hide in the water for a very long time to catch that perfect moment to save the dead person.
This was basic caution.
Dead people can revive in hell after a long sleep, but Gu Qing Shan canât do the same.
And during his wait earlier, Gu Qing Shan could faintly feel an immensely strong pressure of a Demon Lord deep within the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.
The Grand Tie Wei Mountain has already fallen into the demonâs hands.
Gu Qing Shan couldnât help but ask: âIs there no one that cares about hell? What about the Divinities of Huang Quan? Did they all die?â
The small white bird answered: âIâm not so sure, since there were already no more Divinities in Huang Quan when I woke upâ
âAnd you donât know where they couldâve went?â
âIâm sorry, after the industrial revolution, itâs been a really long time since I last came out. It wasnât only a few days ago that I felt the world crisis coming and suddenly woke upâ
Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan sighed.
I only just got to Huang Quan with no directions to go on and no concept of what is right and wrong.
The most important thing to do right now is to collect intelligence.
Only when I know exactly what happened that I can plan and use force appropriately.
He asked further: âSo you donât know anything, but there should always be someone who does ââdoes anyone come to mind that would know?â
The small white bird instantly replied: âI guess the Divine Armaments would be able to sense the world crisis before I did, so they definitely knowâ
âWho?â
âOne of the three Divine Armaments, Forgetting River Soul Separation Hook, it had never gone to sleep and was still recording the deeds of all dead soulsâ
âReally?â
Gu Qing Shan was now a bit hesitant to believe this bird.
The small white bird guaranteed it: âYes, it knows the most out of everyone, nothing in Huang Quan is able to escape its watchful eyesâ
âCan you take me to find it?â
âYou just saved me, plus you have that personâs presence on you, so of course I canâ
The small white bird flapped its wings and flew into the Bone-rending Hellspawn Blade.
The Blade spun around twice in mid air before pointing at a direction.
âThat way!â
âVery well, letâs go find it nowâ
âWait a minute!â the Blade stopped Gu Qing Shan.
âWhat is it?â
âI have to tell you this first, the Forgetting River Soul Separation Hook is a weapon of Divinity, without its permission, you definitely cannot touch it. Otherwise you will die immediatelyâ
âUnderstood, Iâll be carefulâ
âLetâs goâ
The Bone-rending Hellspawn Blade brought Gu Qing Shan flying through the bottom of the Forgetting River.
Gu Qing Shan checked his remaining Soul Points.
Since the Chao Yin sword is constantly using Soul Points ever since a while ago to control the Forgetting River water, his 1000-odd Soul Points were steadily being eaten through.
Iâll have to move fast.
âŠ
The Grand Tie Wei Mountain.
A secluded spot at the foot of the mountain.
Gu Qing Shan came out from the Forgetting River, landing on shore.
There were no sun in the sky, as well as no moon or stars.
But there was a faint light that came from above, illuminating his surroundings in a lonely hue.
This was the Huang Quan worldâs night.
A dignified Buddhist shrine stood in front of Gu Qing Shan.
The entire shrine seemed to be deserted as it was deathly calm and silent.
âItâs hereâ
The small white bird came out of the Blade and spoke as it landed on Gu Qing Shanâs shoulder.
âWhat is this place?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
âThis is the Forgetting River Soul Separation Hookâs shrine of worship, its weapon spirit summoning contract is insideâ
âWeapon spirit summoning contract?â
âYeah. The Forgetting River Soul Separation Hook is a manifestation of Huang Quanâs Law, so only a Divinity of Huang Quan can hold it in their hands, it wonât arbitrarily show up just anywhereâ
âIf any creatures besides Divinities wanted to contact it, they have to use the weapon spirit summoning contract to call it outâ
âGot itâ Gu Qing Shan nodded.
