Chapter 1242: Judge of Living Beings’ Fate

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze shifted back and forth.

The lines of glowing text were still manifesting bit by bit:

[You’ve destroyed the final host of the Lord of the Space-Time Mystery Nest]

[It will no longer be able to manifest within any Fate or Space-Time]

[After a while of struggling, it will ultimately return to Primal Chaos and thoroughly disappear from the infinite worlds]

[As you only eliminated one-third of one of its strands of hair, in total, you obtained: 40 million Soul Points]

Seeing his Soul Points value going up a considerable amount once again, Gu Qing Shan felt more relaxed.

“Your grace Gu Qing Shan, is this the power of the twin swords Heaven and Earth?” Shan Hai Qi Xia asked.

“Not completely” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Shan Hai Qi Xia felt a bit emotional.

The void was endless, the worlds within it infinite, outside of the Samsara there were still innumerable characters of great power and heroism.

Even though the Tomb of Myriad Beasts had fused 99% of the Beast King realm’s fragments, it was for this reason that they did not dare to declare themselves the most powerful world in reality.

Shan Hai Qi Xia pondered a bit, then smiled: “To be frank, to seal this thing, our School of Shan Hai has given up a considerable price. Since your grace has helped us get rid of this monster, the only thing I can offer in return is a secret of similar value”

“I’m all ears”

“Your enemy, the target that you wish to eliminate—– the Wraith realm, is actually within the great tomb”

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze became focused.

“Ah? I remember that the great tomb resides in your world, how are they arbitrarily prancing around like they own the place?” he asked.

Shan Hai Qi Xia replied: “There is endless danger within the great tomb, which makes it essentially sealed off to all. Fortunately, we discovered a burial ground not too far from the entrance, in which a true Wraith was buried”

A true Wraith!

Gu Qing Shan’s heart jumped.

Heavenly beings, the Beast Kings, the Wraiths, all of them were already gone for a very long while, who could have thought that the corpse of a wraith would happen to be discovered in the tomb.

Watching Gu Qing Shan’s expression, Shan Hai Qi Xia continued: “Your grace should also understand what this means. That’s why we had probed it from many sides, attempting to collect the secrets from the burial grounds, regarding the Samsara before it was broken. Even if we could not, we wanted to at least find out how that Wraith lost its life”

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

Shan Hai Qi Xia continued: “We do not know anything about the Wraiths, so we did not know where to even begin. At the same time, after the Wraith realm got wind of this, the three Wraith Lords made us an offer that we could not refuse; right now, they have been participating with us in our excavation of that burial grounds, attempting to study the secrets of that Wraith”

Gu Qing Shan listened, then pondered a bit and muttered: “This secret is certainly valuable, but from the sound of it, you once faced the tyranny of the wraiths, are you already so willing to cooperate with them now?”

Shan Hai Qi Xia chuckled and replied: “That is merely history from the Age of Old, it had already been much too long since that era, but we’re still living under the shadows of the great tomb and the Apocalypse. For survival, we would naturally not refuse business, and there had been frequent ventures of mutual profit between us and the wraiths”

Understanding her point, Gu Qing Shan casually agreed: “Indeed, business is business, individual sentiment certainly has no place in that”

He suddenly felt a sign.

——-this clone of his was about to disappear.

Since the dream was about to end, his clone would naturally also fade.

Gu Qing Shan nodded to Shan Hai Qi Xia and the others, telling them: “I still have other business to attend, farewell”

Seeing that he wanted to leave, Shan Hai Qi Xia casually said: “If your grace wish to leave, please pay attention as tonight——”

Before she could finish, Gu Qing Shan’s form had already scattered into fog and faded into the void of space.

He vanished without a trace.

Everyone was shocked.

“Investigate!” Shan Hai Qi Xia uttered a low shout.

“Yes!” several of the VIPs leapt out from behind her.

One minute later.

They all returned one by one.

“What are the results?” Shan Hai Qi Xia asked.

“He couldn’t be seen in any of the exits and passages” Li Chun Dao reported.

“All the trapping techniques and seals were not disturbed in any way—— I heard that cultivators could sometimes use unique Thaumaturgies, could this be a Thaumaturgy that we have never heard of?” Extinguishing Saintly Hands said.

“I’ve come into contact with a few cultivator’s escaping techniques and Thaumaturgies, this was something of that nature” Old Man Embracing Bones judged and reported.

Everyone exchanged glances, unable to help themselves falling silent.

“How exactly did he leave…” Shan Hai Qi Xia fell into thought.

…

Gu Qing Shan woke up.

Darkness, all around.

In this destroyed world, he was the only living person, sleeping within the ruined city.

He yawned, rubbed his eyes, then turned to the void of space.

Lines of glowing text appeared to remind him:

[You’ve had a preliminary grasp of ‘Night Cruiser’]

[Please maintain the current standard, continuously train and utilize this cloning technique until you fully grasp it]

[When you fully grasp this cloning technique inheritance, the inheritance: ‘Day Cruiser’ will be triggered in response]

This text soon disappeared after Gu Qing Shan finished reading them,

New lines of notification showed up:

[The path of ‘Void War God’ had been opened]

[For the next step, you must kill the void monster: Judge of Living Beings’ Fate]

Gu Qing Shan froze.

A monster could have such a title?

Before he could ask, the War God UI had already given him a new choice:

[To unlock this Quest’s corresponding description, 1000 Soul Points must be spent]

“Take it” Gu Qing Shan said unhesitantly.

[The Eternal Abyss, the Lord of the Space-Time Mystery Nest, and the Judge of Living Beings’ Fate are entities of the same level]

[With your power—— or rather, with the power of most living beings, it is completely impossible to win against any of them]

[Countless years ago, when the Reality Gate was forced open, the Apocalypses that snuck in from outside heavily injured these monsters, thus giving birth to a chance—– and now, you are currently at the location where they were defeated, making it highly probable for you to run into them]

[This shall be your only chance to obtain the ‘Void War God’ Title]

Reading these lines over and over, Gu Qing Shan finally asked: “You’re telling me that this ‘Judge of Living Beings’ Fate’ had also been dealt with by the Apocalypse?”

[Same as the Lord of the Space-Time Mystery Nest, it is hanging on by its last breath] the War God UI replied.

His Soul Points were deducted.

“So that’s what it was, I was wondering why this Quest was suddenly triggered—— so it was originally an impossible Quest to accomplish, but these monsters were beaten to near-death by the Apocalypse, which gave me a small chance”

Gu Qing Shan muttered.

What kind of Title would be granted through defeating such monsters?

Gu Qing Shan was extremely curious.

The wraith’s ongoing operation was also greatly rousing his curiosity.

Dong dong dong!

A series of knocks cut off his thoughts.

In the void of space, a gate opened.

The practical class teacher stood there.

“Class is over, Li Qiu Shan”

“Ah, yes, I’m coming”

Gu Qing Shan stood up, collected his mattress and pillows, then put them all into his bracelet.

“How was today’s lesson? Did you learn anything new?” the teacher asked.

“I learnt a lot. Ah right, teacher, how can I speed up the comprehension of the spirit linked inheritance I obtain?”

“That huh? There’s no real shortcut, you can only try your best, continuously exerting your efforts and persistence would you be able to comprehend it all”

“Understood, in other words, I will have to do my best to sleep more frequently”

“Ah… if you put it that way… that’s true”

…

After class was over.

Gu Qing Shan returned to his dwellings.

There was no one here.

Li Qiu Yu should be out on a mission right now.

Gu Qing Shan made himself a bowl of noodles, slowly ate, then laid on his bed.

At this point, it wasn’t nighttime yet so it was impossible to trigger [Night Cruiser], he could only slowly ponder a few things.

He obtained so much information today that he needed time to slowly digest and dissect it all.

——the Wraith realm and Tomb of Myriad Beasts are business partners, essentially collaborators.

No wonder why the people of the Wraith realm didn’t care that some people from the Tomb of Myriad Beasts appeared on the battlefield.

And that great tomb.

If a Wraith was buried there, could there also be a heavenly being that died and was buried in the tomb?

Suddenly, a series of knocking could be heard.

Gu Qing Shan got off his bed and opened the door.

It was Zhao Qiong at the door.

“Senior Zhao, come in” Gu Qing Shan said.

Zhao Qiong came into the room, stroked his head, then said: “Li San Lang, since big sister Qiu Yu isn’t here, I came to protect you”

“Protect me?” Gu Qing Shan asked confusedly.

Zhao Qiong replied: “Yes, a unique Apocalypse will appear tonight, it will be very dangerous.
