Chapter 1131 - Weak And Feeble Reptile
A ring was hovering over Gu Qing Shan’s fingers.
But he didn’t wear it.
This was the Abyssal Ring, and simply putting it on carried a risk of death.
“The above... is the information I obtained”
After informing the ring, Gu Qing Shan put it away.
He yawned, sat down on a chair, and stretched his back.
“Finally done...”
He muttered, then tapped his Inventory Bag to take something out to drink.
But the Inventory Bag didn’t react.
Gu Qing Shan then realized that he had already given everything to the world fragments.
He only had a single Azure Clear Pill left.
——-a healing pill with the highest potency he possessed.
But there was no liquor.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but lick his lips in regret.
His three swords manifested from the void of space.
「 Impressive, you actually managed to fool Ling er to leave 」the Earth sword praised.
Before knowing Gu Qing Shan, it had always stayed with Xie Dao Ling, so it knew just how sharp and brilliant of a girl she was.
“Hah, I’m probably dead already, who knows when she’s going to realize what happened?” Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 Right, so whatever you want to do, you had better do it quickly 」the Earth sword agreed.
Luo Bing Li suddenly cut in: “Wait, wait, why do I get the impression that you two are feeling a sense of accomplishment by fooling his master?”
“「 Of course 」” Gu Qing Shan and the Earth sword replied at the same time.
Gu Qing Shan replied: “Shifu is the kind of person that’s not afraid of anything, but she’s always worried about us disciples; so if we run into even the tiniest trouble, she would be very anxious”
“How do you know?” Luo Bing Li asked.
“There was one time where Qin Xiao Lou and I went to a neighboring sect to steal some hundred-year wine that they had been brewing, just as we were about to be discovered, Shifu suddenly appeared in the sky, declaring that she had something important to talk about with their sect master. It was thanks to her drawing the attention of everyone in that sect that we managed to escape”
Gu Qing Shan continued: “Later on when I thought back about it, the various things Qin Xiao Lou and I ran into on the way like butterflies, squirrels, goats, etc. were all most likely her”
Luo Bing Li sighed: “If she’s that worried about you, you should have—–”
“I couldn’t tell her, she’s currently in the middle of a Tribulation, any distractions will cause her to be distracted” Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively.
The Earth sword followed up: 「 Indeed, this is the trouble that he caused, furthermore, I think this is only a small matter to him 」
“A small matter?” Luo Bing Li repeated.
The Earth sword answered: 「 Take a look at how relaxed he is. I don’t know how he’s going to resolve it, but from experience, I think it’s most likely nothing too big 」
Gu Qing Shan smiled: “Causing a bit of trouble outside, then getting scared and running back to the sect to find their master—– there are people like that, but I’m not one of them”
The Chao Yin sword let out a curt ‘wu’.
It didn’t really understand why it had to do that, but it did so anyway.
It felt stylish to join a conversation like this.
Luo Bing Li sighed, then asked: “Then what are you going to do now? At dawn, the Azure Dragon will come to kill you”
Gu Qing Shan stood up and walked outside:
“Come, let’s seize the time we have”
His three swords followed closely behind.
Gu Qing Shan flew until he reached the top of the wall.
“Hey, I’m here”
He called out to the numerous strange worlds outside.
The world fragments turned back into sprites of light, surrounded him, and asked him out of concern.
Gu Qing Shan said: “Like I said before, I hope that you can end tonight’s nightlife right now and go back to sleep early—— to express my apology when I have another chance to come, I’ll bring everyone better things”
「 No problem... take... care 」the world fragments replied.
“Don’t worry, it’s just a small matter” Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively.
The world fragments then returned outside the city.
One after another, the illusory worlds outside the city wall vanished.
Gu Qing Shan then asked Luo Bing Li: “When do you think I attract people the most?”
Luo Bing Li replied: “That depends on what you’re trying to do”
“I want that dragon to find me immediately as it enters this world” Gu Qing Shan said.
“Why?” Luo Bing Li asked.
“Because it would then immediately come for me” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“Attract people... you look quite decent when you use your swords” Luo Bing Li’s voice slowly becomes tiny.
“Good idea” Gu Qing Shan praised.
The illusory worlds outside the city walls had all vanished.
The world fragments had all scattered and returned to hiding.
The barrier that surrounded this world instantly disappeared.
The Azure Dragon that was waiting outside the world immediately noticed.
At the same time, Gu Qing Shan drew his sword.
He pointed it at the sky and infused spirit energy into a sword seal.
Sha—–
A blinding sword phantom shot to the sky, forming a pillar of light connecting heaven and earth.
The Azure Dragon appeared from above the clouds, then abruptly turned into a fully armored man in azure clothing landing on the ground.
He had two vertical horns, his skin was covered in azure scales, his very presence formed a whirling wind that swept into his surroundings.
The Azure Dragon!
He glanced at Gu Qing Shan and flashed a cruel smirk:
「 Running into the target right as I arrive, how delightful 」
Gu Qing Shan also smiled as he looked at the Azure Dragon and said: “Hey!”
He spat up some blood.
He had just reserved the flow of his spirit energy to damage his own Dantian, thus diffusing a bit of his own cultivation by injuring his acupoints.
This made his cultivation go backward, no longer in a state where he could break through into {Mahesvara King} realm.
——earlier, there was a cultivator who said that she would be willing to diffuse her cultivation and cultivate again for a few hundred years if this wouldn’t work out, which Gu Qing Shan had taken notice of.
So now, he chose the most advanced spirit energy diffusing method among the numerous cultivation worlds, which could reduce his cultivation at the lowest possible cost.
The Laws of Reality quickly noticed this and immediately manifested all around Gu Qing Shan.
「 NO! 」the Azure Dragon roared in anger.
But at the very next moment, Gu Qing Shan was enveloped in a flash of light and left this world.
Since he no longer has the qualifications to break through to {Mahesvara King} realm, he was kicked out of Heaven Pillar world.
He would then return to where he came.
「 You think you’ve escaped? I am the fastest, most powerful dragon of the Wraith realm, I can immediately catch up to you! 」the Azure Dragon was unwilling to accept defeat.
His body turned into an arc of lightning that shot in the same direction that Gu Qing Shan was moving at extreme speed.
No world, space vortex, or entity can stop my advance.
I am the Azure Dragon!
...
Gu Qing Shan reappeared inside his ship.
He chewed on the single Azure Clear Pill he had and swallowed.
The power of the Demon Dragon immediately permeated throughout this body and instantly absorbed all of the pill’s potency.
The tiny injuries within his acupoints were gradually healed.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and used his spirit energy together with the Demon Dragon power to speed up the healing process.
After a few dozen seconds, the overall damage on his acupoints had been healed by more than half, but the Azure Clear Pill’s potency had also been fully expended.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t care about that bit of injury and instead focused the Demon Dragon power to increase his cultivation again.
A few more dozen seconds.
His cultivation had recovered to reach the point where he would be able to break through {Mahesvara King} realm again.
An azure arc of lightning appeared and landed inside the ship.
The azure armored man laughed: 「 Ahahaha, you haven’t escaped, even if you’ve gone through billions of worlds, I would never lose your tracks 」
A blue aura was boiling around his body, he had seemingly expended a great deal of power, causing him to pant ever so slightly as he talked.
However, this bit of stamina would not change the results of this massacre.
After all, for the Azure Dragon, it was very simple to kill a {Yama King} realm cultivator.
Gu Qing Shan appeared impressed and clasped his fist: “It is said that there is an Azure Dragon on the side of the Wraith realm; in their numerous campaigns against the Eternal Abyss, he had relied on his strength to make great contributions. Even during the few small campaigns where the Wraith realm had lost, the Azure Dragon had never lost before”
“This track record of the Azure Dragon caused even the most powerful monsters in the Abyss to want to praise him, and yet the Eternal Abyss had never been able to capture him, because not only was he powerful, he was also the fastest within the Wraith realm”
The blue armored man silently listened and curtly replied: 「 Useless flattering from a weakling, regardless of what you say, I will rip your body to shreds and capture your soul 」
「 After all, you are nothing but a small and feeble reptile 」
“I’m just an insect” Gu Qing Shan muttered, then sighed: “Then I have no choice but to say goodbye”
He triggered his spirit energy.
The Heaven’s Tribulation descended upon him again.
Instantly, he vanished from the ship.
He had gone to face his {Mahesvara King} realm Tribulation.
——he actually entered the Heaven’s Tribulation once again!
The blue armored man wasn’t able to react in time.
As he realized what happened, he immediately prepared to give chase.
There’s no way he would be able to continue back and forth this way.
Wait...
Chasing after him like this isn’t a good idea either.
The blue armored man stopped himself.
He stood for a while, then slowly sat down on a nearby sofa.
He’s only going to face his Tribulation, after which he’ll have to return here.
Whether he’s a {Yama King} realm cultivator or a {Mahesvara King} realm cultivator makes absolutely no difference whatsoever.
Even without any help, I could eliminate countless Abyssal monsters, let alone such an insignificant cultivator like this?
——he is smart, but he’s nothing but a feeble reptile who’s going to die regardless of what he does.
The blue armored man leaned back on the wide sofa and scoffed: 「 I’m going to rest up for a bit, if you die in the Heaven’s Tribulation, that will be your blessing, otherwise, I’m going to rip you to shreds and eat you alive right here before I bring your soul back to the master 」
He closed his eyes and began to sleep.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
He abruptly felt that something wasn’t quite right.
He stood up, his body flashed, and appeared in the space vortex outside the ship.
He suddenly noticed that there wasn’t a single gap left in the entire surrounding space vortex.
All of the most powerful monsters of the Eternal Abyss had gathered here.
They silently came without any sound or commotion, hiding themselves into the void of space and waited until Gu Qing Shan had left to show themselves.
The ship had been thoroughly surrounded by Abyssal monsters, leaving nothing but powerful Abyssal monsters for a ridiculously far distance in every direction.
Furthermore, the void of space had been completely sealed by the power of the Abyss, rendering all powers useless.
Not even the king of the wraiths would fare well if it fell into this situation by itself.
「 Oh no... I’ve been had! 」
historical
The blue armored man muttered in shock.
He suddenly felt something he had never felt before.
Death was approaching.
The Eternal Abyss had specifically sent the most powerful meat grinders of war, just to cooperate with Gu Qing Shan and set up this intricate death trap.
Even if he was the fastest within the Wraith realm, he would never be able to escape from this encirclement.
——and so, this truly was the Azure Dragon’s time to die.
An Abyssal monster displayed a rare mocking expression and spoke in a thunderous resounding voice: 『 Would you like to try and flatter us first, small and feeble reptile? 』
