Chapter 1719: Lightning Wraith!
“-Let me introduce you, this is Li An, this is Ye Fei Li, you’re both my old trusted companions, you can trust one another” Gu Qing Shan said.
Ye Fei Li exchanged glances with the middle-aged man and nodded.
“So you’ve taken over control of this body?” Ye Fei Li asked with interest.
“That’s right, I’m now currently using his body to fight along your sides” the middle-aged man pointed at himself and said.
“Do you know how to use that Samsara Divine Skill?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“Of course” the middle-aged man answered.
Ye Fei Li sighed in relief and said: “That’s great. Later on when we kill the Elemental monsters, you’ll be able to act as the main firepower”
Gu Qing Shan followed up: “Indeed, I also think the same”
The middle-aged man glanced at him a bit and proudly said: “Time for you to be carried again…”
He lifted his chin, showing off his thick beard.
…
An hour later.
Boom!!!
The monster’s body collapsed on the ground.
The middle-aged man lowered his spear and said: “Gu Qing Shan, it can’t move any longer, hurry and kill it”
Gu Qing Shan walked forward and swung his blade towards the monster’s neck.
The monster was already on its deathbed, so it immediately died after receiving the slash.
“How is it?”
The middle-aged man and Ye Fei Li both asked.
Gu Qing Shan raised his hand, signaling them not to speak yet.
A moment of silence.
An intense flash of red light emerged from Gu Qing Shan’s body like a pillar that shot up into the sky.
“Gu Qing Shan, that’s too flashy!” Ye Fei Li hurriedly told him.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at him with a pained expression on his face.
The bone-piercing pain caused him to be unable to help himself and screamed.
“AAARRGGHH!”
The red light slowly turned into a thick dark glow that completely enveloped him.
-the pain became even more severe and more intense!
Gu Qing Shan fell to his knees, both of his hands violently punching the ground.
Bam!
The ground became cracked!
He spat up a puff of blood, trying to vent the unimaginable pain:
“AARGH——”
Ye Fei Li was worried and wanted to help him stand up, but the middle-aged man stopped him.
“Don’t!” the middle-aged man sternly said.
“But he’s-” Ye Fei Li refuted.
The middle-aged man solemnly answered:
“He’s the only Chosen Saint of the Wraith realm, currently being imbued with the Wraith realm’s origin power, so it would do more harm than good”
As soon as she said that, the dark glow that filled the air completely vanished.
As if the supernatural phenomena just now hadn’t actually existed at all.
Gu Qing Shan was now kneeling on the ground while soaked in sweat and breathing heavily.
The pain caused by the overflowing Origin power was subsiding.
Only he, whose body had experienced absorbing the power of several dragons in the past, would have been able to accept all that power so simply.
“Are you ok?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“I’m fine” Gu Qing Shan replied.
He turned to the void of space.
Only to see lines of bloody red glowing text quickly appearing:
[Your Merit value has reached ‘3’]
[You’ve unlocked the Elements War Mode]
[-You can now utilize your Samsara Divine Skill]
[In anticipation of the war, the Wraith realm has imbued its Origin power within your body to help you reinforce your Divine Skill ahead of time]
[This reinforcement has affected your Samsara Divine Skill: Mountain Wraith]
[Divine Skill: Mountain Wraith has begun to evolve, evolution will end in three seconds]
[3]
[2]
[1]
[You’ve obtained the Wraith realm Divine Skill: Lightning Wraith(incomplete)]
[Lightning Wraith(incomplete): Your entire body will turn into lighting and instant move away from danger using extraordinary speed, unhindered by any barriers]
[Attention: This is the incomplete form of Lightning Wraith]
[As your Merit value has not reached ‘100’, your Samsara Divine Skill has been upgraded by one step, but you can’t completely wield its power]
[Only by reaching 100 Merits or completing the Elements War would your Divine Skill ‘Lightning Wraith’ evolve into its complete form]
[Keep trying your best!]
[Additionally:]
[You can initiate the Elements war zone in three minutes]
[——progress doesn’t wait for anyone]
Gu Qing Shan silently read through everything.
[Mountain Wraith] has evolved, but into an incomplete form.
But there’s nothing to regret.
Originally, I would have had to accumulate 100 Merits in order to awaken a Divine Skill.
Not only have I prematurely awakened the Divine Skill, it has also evolved- the Samsara Wraith realm’s Origin had helped me as best as it could.
Although, it seems like this skill is used primarily for avoiding death…
While he was thinking, the middle-aged man suddenly said: “The supernatural phenomenon just now was too flashy, this place is no longer safe, we need to leave”
Gu Qing Shan regained his senses and said: “There’s not enough time. We only have three minutes, after which I will initiate a unique event”
“What is it?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“I’m not sure either” Gu Qing Shan replied.
The middle-aged man stood still, but Li An appeared behind him and formed a seal with her hands, lightly murmuring: 『 Wicked and evil creatures, heed my call 』
Various gloomy shadows emerged from the void of space, occasionally manifesting into strange shapes before they return to being shadows that drifted and circled around Li An.
Li An changed her hand seal and shouted: 『 Thousand Demon Obstruction! 』
In an instant, all the shadows scattered in every direction.
Their bodies faded away as they disappeared into the void of space, resulting in various invisible fluctuations.
“What’s going on?” Ye Fei Li asked.
『 I’ve created a temporary Phase Realm that wouldn’t be discovered by anyone 』Li An answered.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed a bit and muttered: “Li An, everyone had lost their powers but you seem to have full access to your abilities”‘
The Tianma’s blade from earlier, the possession technique, or the summoning of evil creatures to create a Phase Realm, any of them could be considered a Divine Skill.
What’s going on?
Li An casually explained: 『 During the countless years of the past, we of the Tianma race had faced countless obstacles, all to make the preparations for this chance. As soon as you showed up, we’ve gathered all of our powers into me, which allows me to retain 30% of my power, a lot more compared to other Chosen Saints 』
“Does the Samsara allow this? Will there be any issues?” Gu Qing Shan worriedly asked.
『 If I fail, the Tianma race will go completely extinct, no longer to exist in any Reality- that is the price we paid 』Li An muttered in reply.
Gu Qing Shan stayed silent for a bit and gently told her: “Don’t worry, we will definitely succeed”
Li An nodded.
At this point, Gu Qing Shan suddenly sensed something.
He looked around and said: “Wait… I can sense… a special place calling me”
Li An immediately asked: 『 Can you bring us with you? 』
“Doesn’t seem so” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Ye Fei Li immediately took out a bag and began throwing canned energy drinks into it.
Li An flew up and pressed her finger against the middle-aged man’s forehead, muttering: 『 Disperse Form! 』
In an instant, the middle-aged man’s flesh completely melted away followed by his bones, leaving only a faint bloody rune behind.
『 Give me your hand 』Li An said.
Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to answer, she pulled his hand and pressed the bloody rune on Gu Qing Shan’s palm.
Prick.
Gu Qing Shan looked down and saw that there was a pattern of a monster in his palm.
-the same monster that the middle-aged man turned into earlier.
『 I’ve completely condensed the power of that individual’s soul, but you need to be careful when you unleash the second Divine Skill 』Li An told him.
At the same time, Ye Fei Li handed the bag full of canned drinks to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the two of them and nodded: “Don’t worry”
Suddenly, a gigantic hand descended from the sky, falling through the Phase Realm and lightly landed in front of Gu Qing Shan.
The hand then opened its palm in front of the three of them.
-each of its finger was easily over a hundred meters in length, its skin was engraved full of tattered ancient runes, soaked in opaque liquid blood that made them impossible to discern.
Ye Fei Li looked at the giant hand in shock.
Li An slightly bowed towards the gigantic hand before silently retreating a few steps.
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and lightly leapt onto the hand.
The hand lifted him and silently ascended far above the sky, quickly disappearing.
“What happened just now? Whose hand was that?” Ye Fei Li couldn’t help but ask.
『 Don’t ask, it’s not necessarily a good thing to know too much 』Li An answered.
Ye Fei Li took a closer look at her, only to see that her expression seemed indifferent and not at all worried, but her hands were clenched so tightly that it was already pale white.
Ye Fei Li sighed and said: “He’ll be ok”
He handed her a canned drink.
『 Yes, the Wraith realm’s Origin had fully supported him, all we can do is hope that he’ll come out alive 』Li An accepted the canned drink and replied.
…
Gu Qing Shan was taken by the gigantic hand through numerous indiscernible visions until he reached a closed-off fortress wall.
After putting him down, the hand swiftly went off.
Gu Qing Shan looked around as he stood on top of the fortress wall.
——there was nothing but a barren wasteland around him.
From the void of space, bloody red text continued to appear bit by bit:
[You’ve entered the Elements War Zone]
[Aside from Red Dragon Origin Hex - Twist and Lightning Wraith, all of your other abilities are still in a sealed state]
[Death can come at any moment]
[The Sequence is still within deep slumber, unable to support you]
[The only reminder: You can only receive temporary safety and shelter once you’ve found the clues of the past Wraith realm]
Death can come at any moment?
Gu Qing Shan’s eyes flickered and got his bow ready in his hand.
There wasn’t anything on the fortress wall, while the only thing around him other than the barren wilderness was the gloomy sky.
——this looks a lot like an abandoned world.
Gu Qing Shan felt unsure, so he silently stood still for a while, waiting.
Silence.
It was as if no one had come here for a very long time.
Gu Qing Shan’s heart slowly calmed down.
He then abruptly looked up at the sky as if he felt something.
Far above the sky.
Five gigantic heads emerged from the sky and looked down around him.
The monster had bright red long hair, a ferocious humanoid head in the middle, and four other heads that floated around the middle one.
They noticed Gu Qing Shan almost right away.
「 A… mortal… 」
The monster looked down at Gu Qing Shan and commented with some interest.
Gu Qing Shan looked up at it and felt an indescribable sense of pressure.
This ridiculously violent presence…
Compared to it, the Elemental monster I fought earlier felt like a docile pet.
“Ah, I am a mortal, may I ask who your grace is?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
-Red Dragon Origin Hex - Twist!
The five-headed monster spoke: 「 I am a Samsara Old God, you cannot hear my name, but I need your power 」
“What do you need me to do?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
The five-headed monster abruptly broke into laughter.
Behind its main head, one of the heads suddenly opened its mouth and breathed out grey fog towards Gu Qing Shan.
Instantly, the grey fog turned around and surrounded the five-headed monster.
-Red Dragon Origin Hex - Twist!
The five-headed monster was surprised.
Its main head muttered: 「 So you know a few minor tricks… but that is useless. As soon as you appeared within this prison, your fate has already been determined 」
As it spoke, one of its other heads had already inhaled the grey fog.
Gu Qing Shan silently watched it, then abruptly opened his palm and pointed the pattern towards the monster.
The monster noticed his gesture and reached one of its heads into the void of space, pulling out a black bamboo shield.
Its main head displayed a hint of fighting spirit and commented: 「 Shishishi, a Samsara Divine Skill? Unfortunately, it’s much too weak, not even enough to tickle me 」
Gu Qing Shan hesitated for a split second.
As experienced as he was, he had witnessed countless entities, thus being able to generally sense how strong this monster actually was.
…The difference between us is too great, even if I use the middle-aged man’s Divine Skill, I wouldn’t be able to kill this guy.
Furthermore, I’m going completely blind right now, unable to dig any sort of intel from the other party through talking.
Then…
Fine.
Gu Qing Shan sighed and didn’t unleash the spear Divine Skill.
He waved his hand to the monster: “How unpleasant, goodbye”
「 Bahahaha! YOU are trying to bid ME farewell!? 」
The five-headed monster laughed hysterically and spoke with a mocking tone: 「 You want to run? I’ve already established 29 layers of restraining hexes, you have no option other than becoming my food! 」
“That’s not necessarily the case”
As soon as he said that, Gu Qing Shan activated the Wraith Divine Skill, [Lightning Wraith]!
His entire body abruptly transformed into a bolt of lightning and shot away from the fortress wall, instantly traversing a large distance over the barren wasteland.
In the blink of an eye, his figure had already vanished from the horizon.
Only now could the sound of his figure vanishing be heard, resulting in a total of 29 distinct booms.
The five-headed monster was completely stunned as it stood on top of the sky, unable to process what had just happened.
Suddenly!
A flash of lightning was seen at the edge of the horizon.
Gu Qing Shan once again appeared on the fortress wall.
He shrugged and spoke to the monster in the sky: “Sorry, since you said that you wanted to eat me, I seemed to have forgotten my line——”
“-I’ll be back”
After declaring that, he turned back into a bolt of lightning and shot away from the fortress wall, instantly traversing the vast barren wasteland into the setting sun at the horizon.
The five-headed monster was stunned again, then it abruptly uttered a resounding howl of anger.
But Gu Qing Shan had already travelled so far away that he couldn’t hear it anymore.
