Gu Qing Shan didnât try to force Leng Qian Chen any further.
Because he suddenly remembered something.
â â -Leng Qian Chen and his wifeâs weapons were also a pair.
If Leng Qian Chen became the Huang Quan Devil King, he would have had to give up on his original Deific Authority as well as his claw weapon.
Itâs hard to know exactly what his wife would think.
â â â â -I shouldnât actively ruin their spousal relationship.
With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan silently put the Devil King Warden Rod away.
Heâs the only person who can possess multiple Deific Authorities as well as their corresponding weapons at the same time, thanks to the [Ultimate Mystery of All Beings Equal].
A figure then descended from the sky.
It was the skull woman.
She asked with a tired tone: If What are you doing?
Gu Qing Shan and Leng Qian Chen exchanged glances.
â â â â â â -considering the look on her face, something must have happened.
Gu Qing Shan explained everything that happened here to her.
The skull woman deeply sighed and said: So in the end, we still couldnât win against the Heavenly EmperorâŠ
âWhy do you say that?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
The three of them simultaneously sensed something and looked up at the sky together.
Only to see a single sheet of paper silently arriving here from a sea of dignified light that had manifested above the sky.
Gu Qing Shan instantly recognized this sheet of paper to be the same thing that hovered above Star Gazer city as well as the Heavenly Palace.
Could it beââ
The skull woman explained:
This is the Virtuous Karma Page, which is a part of the Samsara Heavenly Tome. Its appearance here represents the fact that the entirety of the Samsara
Heavenly Tomeâs power has been concentrated into the Huang Quan realm
Her voice sounded a bit dejected as she continued: The Virtuous Karma Page is capable of summoning the whole Samsara Heavenly Tome, and as soon as the Samsara Heavenly Tome gains the qualifications to become a Divine Artifact of Huang Quan, it can immediately summon the Heavenly Emperor hereââ weâve lost this round J
âThen we must leave immediately!â Gu Qing Shan swiftly decided.
Itâs already too late J
The skull woman continued: I was originally preparing to take the Forgetting River and the Bridge of Life and Death, but during the final moments, the Huang Quan realmâs connection with the Samsara as a whole suddenly became extremely firm. The Samsaraâs Origin Power is flowing uncontrollably into the Huang Quan realm â
Right now, itâs already impossible for the Huang Quan realm to separate from the Samsara Jl
After hearing that, Gu Qing Shan turned towards the void of space.
Several lines of bloody red text had appeared:
[The Huang Quan realmâs Artifact Clash has failed]
[The Samsara has taken over control of the Huang Quan realm. At this moment, the Divine Artifacts of another Samsara realm will arrive in the Huang Quan realm to consume all the weapons that had lost, thus reinitiating the competition for the Primary Artifact position]
â â â â -so something like this was possible?
Since Leng Qian Chen stopped the Huang Quan realmâs Artifact Clash, Divine
Artifacts from a different Samsara realm are coming to absorb the Dower ofall losing Divine Artifacts to restart the competition.
âThere are still other Divine Artifacts in the Samsara that can come here to participate in the Clash?â Gu Qing Shan asked.
The skull woman coldly snorted, then replied: After the Devil King lost the battle all those years ago, I discreetly investigated a certain thing- the reason why the Devil King Warden Rod couldnât win against the Samsara Heavenly Tome. Gu Qing Shan, Leng Qian Chen, do you want to know?
âI doâ Gu Qing Shan replied.
Leng Qian Chen also nodded.
The skull woman said: Very well, since youâre both now enemies of the
Heavenly Emperor, itâs fine for you to learn of this-
During the first Samsara Clash for Supremacy, the Heavenly Emperor was afraid that the Samsara Heavenly Tome couldnât win against the Devil King Warden Rod, so during the Wraith realmâs Artifact Clash, he sabotaged the Wraith realm and made it so that their Artifact Clash ended with no victor
After thinking about it briefly, Leng Qian Chen asked: âIsnât that the exact scenario of whatâs happening today?â
The skull woman replied: Exactly. At that time, the Heavenly Emperor sent the Samsara Heavenly Tome into the Wraith realm to consume all of the
Wraith realmâs Divine Artifacts- â â from which point the Samsara Heavenly Tome was equivalent to two Primary Artifacts, granting it immense power and allowed it to overwhelm the Devil King Warden Rod J
Gu Qing Shan and Leng Qian Chen both went silent.
The situation earlierââ
If Leng Qian Chen had killed Gu Qing Shan, then the Heavenly Emperor naturally wouldnât have needed to come here in a hurry.
But even if his plans had failed, it wouldnât be an issue.
ââsince the Huang Quan realm needed to restart its Artifact Clash, nobody would have been able to flee; in fact, the Samsara Heavenly Tome would even be able to take this opportunity to consume the Huang Quan realmâs Divine Artifacts and become a more powerful weapon for the Heavenly Emperor to use.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
I couldnâtpredict how many layers ofpreparations the Heavenly Emperor had made; it didnât matter how I dealt with them, since the situation would proceed in a favorable manner for the Heavenly Emperor regardless.
This
Very in teresting.
Itâs been a very long time since Iâve faced an enemy of this caliber.
Reneedol wasnât significant at all, she merely received Bossâ âloveâ and obtained overwhelmingpower.
This time, itâs different.
No matter how the situation changed, no matter how many Sequence Envoys entered the fray, not even the participation of void monsters on the same level as the Eternal Mind Seizer, or the betrayal ofa loyal subordinate like Leng Qian
Chenââ-
Managed to affect the Heavenly Emperors plans.
Heâs consistently been on the winning side.
Nobody could stop him, as everyone is alreadypart ofhis machinations.
âI already knew what kind of person the Heavenly Emperor was, but I couldnât predict that he managed to consider things so farâ Leng Qian Chen shook his head.
Gu Qing Shan then asked: âCan we interfere with the Artifact Clash?â
The skull woman answered: The Samsara wouldnât allow any living beings to interfere with the Divine Artifactsâ business
-in other words, the Artifact Clash must go on, and nobody is going to stop that.
The Virtuous Karma Page in the sky was glowing increasingly brighter.
Other than it, no other Divine Artifact appeared.
Within the Huang Quan realm, the Devil King Warden Rod doesnât have an artifact spirit, the Six Paths Great Mountain sword had already lost its qualifications, and the rest of the Divine Artifacts had already lost.
â -the Samsara Heavenly Tome will naturally win and become the Huang Quan realmâs Primary Artifact.
It will become the Primary Artifact of 3 different Samsara realms: Heaven, Wraith, and Huang Quan.
Gu Qing Shan was speechless.
Notjust that, the Heavenly Emperor also possessed the [One Being Myriad Lives] technique and the Pendant ofFire.
Who would be able to win against him?
Even Shifu had no choice but to force me to take everyone and flee.
FleeâŠ
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.
The skull woman declared in a resolute tone: If we canât flee anymore, Gu Qing Shan, prepare to awaken all dead beings in Hell, weâre going to mount one last stand against the Heavenly Emperor Jl
Gu Qing Shan hesitantly looked towards Leng Qian Chen.
Leng Qian Chen was also staring closely at him.
Neither of them said anything, but they both understood what the other side was trying to say.
âImpossibleâ Leng Qian Chen explained, âYouâre currently a Virtuous Deity of
Huang Quan, even if you tried to participate in the Clash using your identity as Demon Dragon, the strongest Soul Artifact, itâs not an identity recognized by the Samsaraâ
Gu Qing Shan blew a whistle towards the sky.
A khopesh-shaped weapon flew down and stopped in front of him.
â â -the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook.
Quite a few other Huang Quan Divine Artifacts were accompanying it.
A small bird was among them, who landed on Gu Qing Shanâs shoulder before complaining:
âGoddamn, that was so detestable, being controlled by some lock seals and forced to fight to the death with others; this bird was so irritated by it, good thing you all managed to cancel the whole thingâ
Gu Qing Shan greeted it, then turned to the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook and asked: âI recall you saying that you know everything there is and ever was to be known in Huang Quanâ
This was the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hookâs ability.
âduring the first time Gu Qing Shan came to Huang Quan, it was only after finding it that he had a clear plan of action.
The Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook instantly replied: Indeed, the situation is very dire right now, so ask everything you want to ask now, otherwise, by the time that the Clash begins, all of us Divine Artifacts will be consumed by the Heavenly Tome ]
âWHAT!? EVEN THIS BIRD IS GOING TO BE CONSUMED?â the bird exclaimed in shock.
r You will J the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook replied.
The bird collapsed on Gu Qing Shanâs shoulder.
Gu Qing Shan first caught it before speaking with a solemn tone: âI have another weapon; I want to try and turn it into a weapon of Huang Quan and use that identity to fight with the Samsara Heavenly Tome and compete for the position of Huang Quanâs Primary Artifactâ
The Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook asked: r Does your weapon have an artifact spirit? J
âIt doesâ Gu Qing Shan confirmed.
r For a weapon outside of the Samsara to be recognized as a Huang Quan artifact, it needs to be struck at full strength a total of 7200 times by 36 Huang Quan Divine Artifacts simultaneously; if it doesnât break during that process, it would then be recognized as a Huang Quan artifact J the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook explained.
âGood-
Gu Qing Shan shifted his body and transformed into a huge black dragon that loomed over the peak of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.
Come, have 36 unowned Divine Artifacts strike me J the black dragon spoke in human language.
The Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook took flight and called out to the other Divine Artifacts: ââ -Helping him accomplish this is also helping to save ourselves, everyone, go! J
A total of 36 Divine Artifacts took to the air and spun continuously around the black dragon, striking him with their full strength one after another.
Bangâ bangâ- bangââ
The sound of loud striking metal resounded across the whole Huang Quan realm.
The black dragon simply stood still, silently accepting their attacks.
At this point, the bird woke back up and looked at the sky, exclaiming in horror: âHurry! Hurry! That Heavenly Tome is coming!â
The skull woman and Leng Qian Chen both looked up at the sky, only to see the sheet of paper slowly descending while the whole Huang Quan realm was trembling, almost as if they were audibly resonating.
The skull woman sighed and spoke: The Samsara Heavenly Tome is the Primary Artifact of both the Heaven realm and Wraith realmâŠ
âWhat are you saying?â Leng Qian Chen asked.
The skull woman dejectedly replied: Even if Gu Qing Shan manages to become a Huang Quan weapon, he would still be no match for the Samsara Heavenly Tome- even the Devil King Warden Rod at its peak in the past still lost to the Samsara Heavenly Tome, did it not? J]
Leng Qian Chen became speechless.
He turned his gaze towards the peak of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.
Only to see Gu Qing Shan in his black dragon form still under the continuous barrage of the 36 Divine Artifacts, some blood already leaking from the corners of his mouth.
Leng Qian Chen narrowed his eyes.
He suddenly recalled something in the pastââ
The Gemini Star.
[After I kill that brat and obtain the twin swords Heaven and Earth, Iâll personally send you through the Reality Gate; after that youâre free to seek your revenge, and Iâll keep the twin swords Heaven and Earth for myself]
These were my words at that time.
But Lin saidââ
âIfit was before this, I might have accepted that deal, but Iâve onlyjust found out that after a few ten thousand years, the old man has finally found a successor, and I donât want that successor to die hereâ
[ He deserves to die! And so does his successor! ] I screamed.
âHe granted you life, and now you want to repay that by killing his successor?â Lin sternly questioned.
At the time, I was furious, so I spoke the words Iâve been hiding in my mind for the longest time.
[ During those decisive moments, HE decided to give up on the Samsara and caused me to lose the hope of ever evolving into my complete form â â â â â â his death was fully deserved! ]
Leng Qian Chen opened his eyes.
âOld man⊠sorry, I wasnât the supreme war Soul Artifact that you all hoped that I would be⊠IâŠ
â⊠was just a soul from the Wraith realmâŠâ
âI couldnât save you allâ
âIâm so sorryâ
âThe things Iâve done in the past, I truly, truly am sorryâ
He muttered silently to himself.
After a few moments, Leng Qian Chen swiftly took flight and reached the peak of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.
Why did you come here? This place is dangerous, get down! J Gu Qing Shan said in his black dragon form.
Leng Qian Chen silently stared at him and said:
âIn the past, by the orders of the Wraith realm, I suppressed the power of the human realmâs Soul Artifact of war⊠I made a lot of mistakes, and wasted the hopes of the Bygone Era humansâ
âBut now, I have something I must tell youâ
While continuing to endure the attacks of the Divine Artifacts, Gu Qing Shan turned his gaze towards Leng Qian Chen.
âThis is a secret of an era long pastâ
Leng Qian Chen whispered: âAs the last existing Demon Dragon bloodkin, you
are the supreme war soul Artifact or the Bygone Era humansâ
âThe Bygone Era humans were the final original people of the past Human realm, so only by returning to the complete Samsara would this Soul Artifact of war be able to accomplish its final evolutionâ
âThis was their final wish, even the Martial King of the Bygone Era- Lin even her ultimate technique was named with this in mindâ
âBecause all dragons must possess a true nameâ
-and now, you must learn of your true name to be able to awaken that powerâ
âBygone Daemon, Calamity Dragon of Annihilation, [Absolute]â
âRemember well, that is the name of humanityâs strongest Soul Artifact of warâ
âAs well as, your nameâ
After those words were spoken, the black dragonâs vertical pupils abruptly opened wide.
He raised his draconic head and vocalized an intense howl.
The howl seemed to contain inexpressible vicissitudes and distress, which consisted of all the hardship, blood, and sweat of humanityâs past.
The entire world of Huang Quan fell into an eerie silence.
As time passed, an irregular fluctuation began to radiate from the black dragonâs body..
