Chapter 1674: Judicial Lord of a world

Chapter 1674: Judicial Lord of a world

Two lines of glowing text appeared in front of his vision:

[You’ve won against all the wicked souls]

[The curse has disappeared]

Gu Qing Shan skimmed through it, then looked at the grudgeful souls that were silently sneaking back into the ground in a bored manner.

Perhaps it was because he had killed so many dead people, or perhaps it was because of the Devil King Warden Rod in his hand——- but he had absolutely zero interest in dealing with these dead souls.

In this battle, I’ve gained a bit more Realm Force and even forged a bit more of the key, so I’ve truly benefited a lot, but——–

My goal was supposed to be to further comprehend Realm Force!

I haven’t actually comprehended anything even after the entire battle.

Gu Qing Shan sighed, feeling a bit dejected.

At this point, the cute girl with colorful hair took Laura’s hands and said: ? It’s time, we should step away for a little bit ?

Laura was surprised and asked: “Step away? Big sis Cai Zang, why do we have to step away?”

Cai Zang glanced briefly at Gu Qing Shan and explained: ? He was the victor of this spirit realm war, so after this, the current world system will come to see him, we should go away for now. He’ll return to the main world soon enough ?

“What would happen if you remain?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

? I don’t know, but it’s never been a good idea to displease any world system ?Cai Zang answered, looking a bit wary.

Displeased?

In that case, do world systems also have consciousness?

Gu Qing Shan suddenly recalled the incomplete world spirits that he had met in the past.

Wait——

Gu Qing Shan hurriedly asked: “I’ve used up the world essence relic, would the world system punish me for that?”

Cai Zang replied: ? Don’t try to guess, since I don’t know either—– as a mortal, you have no idea how ancient a world that had formed its own system would be, nor what it could be thinking. But I do know that a world essence relic is indeed the most crucial object in a world system ?

She then began to retreat with Laura.

“Would something bad happen?” Laura tried asking.

Cai Zang glanced at her, then explained: ? The situation of every spirit is unique to themselves, and the various jurisdiction worlds had never been prone to interfering with other worlds. Furthermore, since he was only a mortal, no one could say for sure what exactly would happen ?

A barren wasteland began to manifest in the void of space behind her.

——-it was the main world that corresponded to the Clock Tower Phase Realm.

Laura was clearly worried, but since Cai Zang felt that they shouldn’t remain, she took Laura with her and disappeared in a flash.

Only Gu Qing Shan remained here.

He carefully recalled and finally understood the words of the bloody giant.

“It turns out... the comprehension of Realm Force would only begin after the highly dangerous spirit realm war...”

Gu Qing Shan muttered to himself.

At the very next split second, a line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[It is here]

His surroundings abruptly became dim.

The ground and the sky both disappeared, everything vanished from his sight.

Standing in the void, Gu Qing Shan felt like he was hovering in a lightless ocean.

——he could faintly sense that something seemed to be appearing.

What exactly is it?

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to observe his surroundings, but found nothing at all.

A certain sensation was growing increasingly stronger in his spirit sense.

Above!

Gu Qing Shan suddenly looked up at the void darkness.

But there was nothing above him.

[Behind... you...]

Such a thought was transferred directly into Gu Qing Shan’s mind.

Gu Qing Shan instinctively tried to turn around.

Right in this split second, a certain thought appeared in his mind.

If you really are behind me——

Why did you make me feel that you’re above me in the void?

As soon as this thought appeared, it uncontrollably filled his entire mind.

Indeed, this was such a minor detail that no one would ever pay attention to it.

There was also the possibility of it rapidly descending from above to appear behind him.

But then why did it have to descend from above?

——Another question that he couldn’t shake off.

[Mortal... I order... you to turn around... to see me...]

The consciousness spoke to him telepathically again.

Gu Qing Shan remained standing still without moving.

Cai Zang said that she doesn’t know what would happen as every jurisdiction world was different from one another.

Then...

Why——

Why is it so hung up on getting me to turn around?

But then again, when meeting someone for the very first time, turning around to see them was simply one of many methods of communication for a normal living being.

As he thought of this, Gu Qing Shan almost wanted to turn around, but he continued to remain still.

The other party is an ancient world system, so it shouldn’t take too much effort to kill me...

No, that isn’t correct.

It fled to the Dusty World from a distant Space Vortex.

Who knows what kind of state it is actually in right now?

For some reason, Gu Qing Shan recalled the bloody giant.

At the time, the bloody giant pointed at the ground under us and said:

...

? This world... is actually very dangerous. If you further comprehend the mysteries of power, you will be able to witness more secrets, and there are no guarantees that you’d be able to survive when that happens ?

...

Survive——-

Gu Qing Shan was startled.

Could it be that the danger wasn’t the spirit realm war, but rather right now?

I can feel a horrifyingly dangerous presence behind me.

——right, when the giant said that, it was pointing down.

The ground!

While the clock tower had appeared to me from the front.

In that case, if there was any danger, it should appear from below, not above or behind.

Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and said: “Esteemed judicial lord, I need to explain—— according to our world’s etiquette, the method of expression utmost respect for us was actually to turn our backs towards the other party”

No response from behind him.

It seems the other party didn’t expect him to say something like that.

Gu Qing Shan was sweating bullets right now.

Right at this moment of struggle, Gu Qing Shan felt something moving in his chest.

? Do not move, absolutely do not move at all, I’ll show you... ?

The Master of Valhalla’s hushed voice could be heard from inside the Condemnation Codex.

—–she has awoken.

Following that, a Card appeared in Gu Qing Shan’s Thought Sea.

As Gu Qing Shan looked at the Card, he found that it was a crudely drawn Card depicting a blurry figure being surrounded by numerous shadows from behind.

Deep inside the darkness, numerous vertical irises were staring closely at the figure, exuding cruelty and indifference.

Meanwhile, there was a giant maw full of teeth underneath the figure.

Gu Qing Shan understood.

That figure surely represents himself.

Even though the Master of Valhalla had lost her Realm Force, she was still capable of observing my surroundings and depicting the actual situation.

? Hurry and think of a solution ?the Master of Valhalla anxiously said.

This was the first time Gu Qing Shan had heard urgency in her voice.

A solution——

What kind of solution would there be at this point in time?

Behind him, the voice became cold and impatient:

[Turn around... or... die eternally]

A shadow of darkness as heavy as the ocean abyss was pushing down on Gu Qing Shan almost to the point of collapse.

Gu Qing Shan’s mind was quickly turning.

Hurry.

I need to think of a solution now!

The other party is requesting me to turn around, which means it can’t simply crush me to death.

Being weakened to that degree...

Evidently, the fact that I had used up its world essence relic had quite an effect on it.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly recalled something else:

...

? For you personally, this is truly too soon... Remember, you can summon us to fight any time you wish ?

...

——almost instantly, Gu Qing Shan turned the ring on his finger and abruptly shouted:

“Shannu, do not look behind me—— turn your back to me!”

Shannu instantly appeared in front with her back facing him, then was swiftly covered in a suit of armor from inside the ring.

Gu Qing Shan drew the twin swords Heaven and Earth from the void of space——–

In an instant, the twin swords were swinging at an insane rate, leaving numerous afterimages and a continuous sound of striking on Shannu’s armor.

Clang clang clang clang clang——–

Being surrounded by the sound of numerous strikes, Shannu was completely unharmed.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t put any strength into his swings at all, focusing on nothing but speed, and thanks to the Heaven sword’s [Heaven Choice], he had unleashed hundreds and thousands of strikes in an instant.

——–the first to appear was the bloody giant, who looked behind Gu Qing Shan and sighed: ? Good! Good! Very good! To be able to survive while facing this type of unknown entity, it seems my worries were needless ?

Poof poof poof poof poof!

Numerous realm spirits appeared from the void of space one after another.

They took up every last bit of space there was.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t put any attention into that at all.

He didn’t know what would happen next either.

He was simply swinging his swords.

——continuously swinging his swords without pausing.

It might seem slow, but by the time that the bloody giant appeared, over ten thousand strikes had already been unleashed!

His surroundings became dyed in a bloody red color.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[Phase Realm: Blood Sea is about to manifest]
