Chapter 724: Sealed Away

Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9

As Gu Qing Shan made his declaration, the countless number of people from the billions of worlds all felt emotional.

No one expected that there would be a person who dared to go against the will of God, insisting on changing the fate of a weapon.

“How besotted, do you know what sin you have brought upon yourself?” the figure of light’s tone was no longer amiable like before.

Gu Qing Shan looked straight at the figure of light and spoke: “I only know that a God speaks nothing but the truth”

The figure of light froze.

This was what Gu Qing Shan had asked the figure before he made his wish.

And the figure of light answered him’Gods speak nothing but the truth’.

Gu Qing Shan shrugged and silently snickered: “What is it, o’noble and peerless God, do you wish to go back on your words in front of the billions of living beings?”

“Imbecile!”

The figure of light shouted furiously.

Its boundless divine power surged like a storm at sea, exerting immense pressure on the entirety of the 200 million World Layers as countless living beings couldn’t help but shiver under its solemnity.

Everyone was shocked.

A weak and insignificant living being dared to go against a God, making them deeply furious, this was the very first time this has happened in the long history of the world.

Nothing was ever written about this in the Holy Bibles, not even the myths or the legends.

However—- –

It was also true that up until now, a God had never gone back on their words.

Will the Gods go back on their words ?

A faint seed of doubt was silently being sowed within the minds of many.

The figure of light raised the staff of bone in its hand at Gu Qing Shan: “Mortals, make sure you witness this clearly with your own eyes”

Everyone looked up.

The figure of light spoke: “No matter what contributions you’ve ever made, this will be the results of going against God’s will”

Within the labyrinth, grass and plants began to grow under a vast green glow, bathing everyone under the light of God.

The figure of light was shining even brighter, hovering in the sky.

Except where Gu Qing Shan was standing, which was turning into a desolate desert.

The figure of light spoke: “This world is to seal away a creature of heavy sin, and this mortal harbors thoughts not unlike that of the sinful creature”

“I shall seal both him and the sinful creature away in this world ”

Saying so, the figure of light wielded the bone staff and pointed straight at Gu Qing Shan.

Holy light enveloped Gu Qing Shan’s body.

The figure of light declared:” I shall bestow upon you enough power to fight against the sin, nothing more, nothing less”

“Within the seal, you will serve as the servant of God that will hold off the creature”

“Once you lose, you will be swallowed whole by the sins within ”

“ But even if you continue to fight without end, the power bestowed upon you will start to weaken after 10 minutes”

“ Once the power that the Gods bestowed upon you scatter, you will truly know just how insignificant you are”

“ The sins within the seal shall devour your soul and body whole”

“Only before death, shall you truly learn the truth: That only the power bestowed by the Gods will allow mortals to win against evil”

“You shall live the last moments of your life in misery and regret as you discover what you gave up can never return ”

The figure of light shouted:” Being sealed in this place, devoured by sin, that is how you shall repent in your death! ”

Following its will, the sand around Gu Qing Shan moved.

Gu Qing Shan was unable to escape, only standing still as he slowly sank into the desert.

Like he was being devoured by the drifting sand.

At the end, the figure of light spoke: “Mortal, Gods are merciful. Even when you are to serve your sentence, I shall allow you to confess”

“Come, confess your true feelings with all of the mortals bearing witness, let them remember why you have accepted your death”

Gu Qing Shan sank into the sand.

He said nothing.

Only at the very last moment before he was thoroughly swallowed whole, he raised his arm.

With billions of living beings within the 200 million World Layers bearing witness, he

gave’God ‘ a middle finger. Silence pervaded across the infinite worlds.

Everyone watched this in disbelief.

He dared to do such a thing!

This human gesture of insult was universally recognized by every race of the infinite worlds.

Gu Qing Shan simply kept this middle finger up, not moving a single bit.

This seemed to be his final answer.

He maintained that gesture all the way until his body had completely sunk into the sand.

When the sand was about to swallow his raised arm as well, his hand suddenly moved!

He pulled his middle finger back, clenched his fist and pointed his thumb downwards.

Under the sand, his scoffing voice could be heard.

“Going back on a mere promise, you claim yourself a God?”

The sand proceeded to swallow his hand and fingers as well.

The drifting sand slowly settled.

Everything was over.

The revolt of a mortal ended with his contempt.

He mocked this God who went back on his words.

This emotional scene was carved deep into the minds of all who stood witness to it, unable to forget it for the rest of their lives.

The figure of light froze still for a while.

It couldn’t do anything else to this sinner as he accepted his punishment.

All the Holy Bibles wrote that a God does not go back on their words .

And it had already gone back on its words once, with billions of mortals bearing witness.

If it tried to punish Gu Qing Shan once again for his actions, that would show that it can keep on going back on its words.

An omniscient and omnipotent God cannot do such a thing.

Time slowly passed.

The figure of light finally spoke and announced: “Sin has been sealed away and the sinner has been appropriately punished”

“The Gods bestowed upon mortals the path to Godhood, but the Gods will also punish sinners who goes against them”

“Remember what happened today”

“From now on, no one is to ever set foot on this sealed world of the sin and sinner”

“Only death awaits those offenders!”

After saying so , the figure of light flew up, scattered into sprites of light that slowly melted into the void of space.

God has left.

Within the infinite worlds, mortals bowed once more to send off the Gods.

…

In a certain place among the infinite worlds.

A cigarette was lit.

Zhang Ying Hao took a deep drag and puffed out a cloud of smoke.

“Great…”

He muttered to himself and quickly went off the ship.

Someone called out: “Oi , do you want to ride the ship or not?”

“Not anymore” Zhang Ying Hao waved his hand dismissively.

“No refunds” the man stared at him.

The price for each ticket is quite considerable, so once it was paid for, there was no coming back.

“Ah, alright, good luck on your trip” Zhang Ying Hao smiled.

The man looked closely at him, then glanced around.

This place is a relay world so it’s incredibly desolate, there’s no large civilizations or markets around here at all.

Why did he pay for the ticket, but refused to go?

The captain of the ship muttered: “Crazy guy”

He decided to just ignore him and gave the orders to take off.

The ship left the world.

Zhang Ying Hao stood still and took out a pair of sunglasses.

Silence.

His voice slowly turned cold: “What arrogance, treating my business partner like that, did it ever think of the consequences?”

He threw a card out.

Poof!

A dark green giant lizard appeared.

“Little Ying Hao, what’s the matter? Do you need help?”

The lizard cautiously glanced around.

“Relax, boss, I just have a small question I need to ask you” Zhang Ying Hao said.

Hearing that, the lizard calmed down and lazily spoke: “If it’s just a small question, did you really have to summon me specifically? Alright, ask”

Zhang Ying Hao breathed out another thick puff of smoke.

The smoke obscured his expression.

He then threw the cigarette on the ground and grinded it with the sole of his feet.

“Ah, I just wanted to ask, the Gods who died in history, how were they killed?” he lowered his head and casually asked.

The lizard stared at him, only speaking up after a long silence: “You call that a small question?”

…

Gu Qing Shan sank into the desert.

He felt himself sinking into a layer of formation that wasn’t a formation, rather, it seemed to be some sort of barrier that was similar to a formation.

Seems like I’m going into the seal.

Sure enough, that self-proclaimed’God’ isn’t going to give Little Dusk back.

It would rather go back on its words in front of so many people rather than give Little Dusk back to me, so it must be planning something.

What does it need Little Dusk for?

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, he glanced below.

Below the drifting sand was more drifting sand.

But this area was now wide enough to move around.

Gu Qing Shan lightly leapt out and landed on the sand below.

This place was extremely spacious, seemingly about as big as the black market.

But there wasn’t anything here.

Forward and backward, left and right, up and down, there was nothing but sand.

Gu Qing Shan looked back at himself.

He was still glowing from the residue power given by the figure of light.

However, this power was silently seeping away.

The figure of light hoped that he would slowly lose power during his struggle against the sinful creature , slowly unable to take the monster’s attacks and powerlessly die in a meaningless, desperate struggle.

Truthfully, this was a form of slow and cruel torture, designed to drive the victim deep into despair.

“Gongzi, are you alright?”

Shannu’s worried voice echoed out from the void of space.

“I’m fine, just a bit emotional, sorry for making you worry” Gu Qing Shan told her.

“Shannu, make sure to observe and remind me from now on, against this kind of’God’ that suddenly appears… tch, not only are its methods cruel, I can’t even fight back at all, I really have to be calmer next time” Gu Qing Shan muttered.

“Understood, gongzi” Shannu spoke.

“Hm, now let’s go see the other guy that’s been imprisoned here” Gu Qing Shan crossed his arms and looked forward.

Streaks of light came from every direction, slowly manifesting as a huge shadow of darkness mid-air.

“Sealed again…”

The shadow roared in sorrow and anger: “Sealed away for eons, never knowing the light of day, do you have any idea how painful this is?”

Gu Qing Shan sighed: “My condolences”

The shadow suddenly roared at him: “Damned mortal, since you carry that power on you, I will kill you and eat your flesh! Only then can my grudge be relieved somewhat!”

Gu Qing Shan pointed at the divine glow around himself and asked seriously: “You mean this?”

The shadow didn’t respond.

It scattered into hundreds of dark streaks then attacked Gu Qing Shan from every direction.

Gu Qing Shan stood still, arms crossed without any intention of blocking.

Several hundred heavy dark streaks completely surrounded Gu Qing Shan, cutting deep all around his body.

Even when he was about to be sliced ​​to pieces, Gu Qing Shan still didn’t move.

All the streaks suddenly stopped moving at the same time.

Because of something that Gu Qing Shan said.

“Hey, do you want to leave?”

He casually asked.
