Wherever Gu Qing Shan and the Chao Yin sword went, all the swords were pointing their tip downwards, as if to show their stance.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but sigh.
Once a sword gains a sword spirit, it will live by its sword cultivator for its entire life.
You could say that a sword spirit has seen over half of their sword cultivator’s life.
It’s not just a weapon, it’s also their partner, their friend.
And a sword cultivator will stay by their sword for the majority of their own life as well.
Once a sword cultivator dies, the despair that a sword spirit feels must be unimaginable.
Following the Chao Yin sword, Gu Qing Shan continued to head lower and lower.
After a while, they finally arrived at a ruins.
This area was completely dark; he couldn’t see anything.
When Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight, he found this ruins were as empty as it felt, there was nothing but a thick layer of dust.
But Gu Qing Shan didn’t look down on this place a single bit.
The distance from here to the ground should be the same as from the ground to the sky.
Creating such a wide place like this here is already incredible, not to mention there were so many sword spirits gathered around protecting this place.
“What do we do now?” Gu Qing Shan asked the Chao Yin sword.
The Chao Yin sword escaped from his hand and began to fly back and forth in the ruins.
Finally, it arrived at a high platform in the ruins, then lightly tapped a place on a heavily damaged wall.
An incredibly small light quickly flew around the entire ruins.
The Chao Yin sword tapped the wall again.
Another light.
This time, the light stayed on Chao Yin sword’s shaft.
Suddenly, a calm female voice was heard: “So it’s you…”
The dim light began to expand and grew brighter.
After that, the entire ruins were lit up.
The Chao Yin sword returned next to Gu Qing Shan.
A second later, the wall opened up from both sides as a blindingly bright light slowly flew outside, hovering in front of Gu Qing Shan.
When the blinding light faded, Gu Qing Shan could finally see what the other party was.
It was a small, slender armor set, made from a dark red and black material, countless phantom flames covered each and every part of the armor set as they flickered on and off.
The entire armor set was letting out a domineering presence, just by standing in front of it, Gu Qing Shan was already feeling intense pressure on himself.
It was a female armor set.
Then Gu Qing Shan realized, no wonder the bowl spirit said that he would only meet a weapon spirit that wouldn’t suit him.
As soon as the armor set appeared, Chao Yin sword started to ‘wu wu’ nonstop to Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan understood and clasped his fist: “You’ve called me here senior, pleased pardon me asking but, what can I help you with?”
The armor set started to speak with a female voice: “It’s not that I called you here, but rather the Chao Yin sword wanted you to meet me”
“But why?”
“Because it’s too heavily damaged, unable to tell you everything properly. While I am the only Divine armament of this world, capable of holding a conversation with you”
The female voice then said: “Now, tell me your name”
“This humble one is Gu Qing Shan, pleased to meet you, senior”
The female voice then said: “I am the Wild Raging Flame Armor, forged and awokened 30,000 years ago in the Age of Divinity. After thousands of years, my master has already passed and this world is also about to perish, but I remain intact”
Right as her voice stopped, a notification popped up on Gu Qing Shan’s War God UI.
[You’ve met the Sovereign of the spirits]
[Thaumaturgy Quest 3 completed]
[Initiating Thaumaturgy Quest 4]
[Quest description: This is an unprecedented meeting. Unbelievably, you’ve met with this world’s most powerful weapon spirit, allowing hers and your destiny to interlace]
[Quest objective: The System is unable to provide you any heading for any objectives]
[Note 1: Every action you take from now on will bring about a completely unpredictable future. For now, perhaps you need to think about your own goals]
[Note 2: There is a difference of several levels between the two of you. She will probably not agree to don herself onto a man’s body and she can control the entire sea of swords. Caution when talking is advised]
After reading through all the notifications, Gu Qing Shan silently sighed to himself.
He’s never seen the System being this irresponsible before that it couldn’t even give a proper Quest.
While he was thinking, a [Ting] chimed.
The System responded.
[This is a completely unknown world with a completely unknown fate, the System can only make educated guesses as it goes. The System isn’t omnipotent]
Gu Qing Shan regained his composure and silently asked inside: “If that’s the case, how will I complete this Quest?”
[Ting]!
A line of text appeared on the War God UI.
[The Quest is considered a spontaneous Quest, when current events are over, the Quest will also be considered to be]
So it’s a Quest meant to be given as free points, that’s fine then.
While Gu Qing Shan was nodding satisfyingly, he suddenly realized.
Wait a minute, this Quest doesn’t have any rewards.
“Hey System, does the Quest not have any rewards?”
Gu Qing Shan silently asked inside.
But the War God UI didn’t respond, either it’s busy doing something else, or it’s pretending not to hear anything.
Gu Qing Shan couldn’t even retort anymore.
He had no choice but to look at the Wild Raging Flame Armor and asked: “Now that I’m here, is there anything I can help you with?”
“Before that, don’t rush, I have something to ask you” the female voice spoke.
“Please do” Gu Qing Shan answered.
“Why did you refuse the Buddhist bowl?” the female voice became strict.
“Are there any problems with that?” Gu Qing Shan asked back.
“To you, does the life of a single person means more than the survival of an entire world?” the female voice asked him.
“The world is only worth saving precisely because it has people that we treasure” Gu Qing Shan answered.
His tone was slow, but contained an unshakably firm will: “If I can’t even save the one I treasure, what use is there left for the world?”
The female voice became silent.
After a while, she casually spoke: “You remind me of a few dozen thousand years ago, of my female master…”
Her tone became more gentle: “The world is about to fall into the hands of another. Originally, as this is the destiny of all worlds, I had nothing to say about it”
“But their violent conducts upon this world have made me furious”
Gu Qing Shan nodded, waiting for her to continue.
The female voice kept going: “And now, they have even found the method to torture the weapon spirits”
“Although I am capable of leaving this world any time I want, I really can’t stand to see so many weapon spirits going through such pain”
“If you have a way to deal with them, I can cooperate with you”
Gu Qing Shan replied instantly: “I have a way to resist them”
The female voice seemed intrigued: “Ah? Then tell me”
“The 5-Elemental essences” Gu Qing Shan quickly spoke, “as long as we can find the 5-Elemental essences, there is a method to allow this world to leave its place and merge with our world”
“That way, we can become stronger, enough to fight against them”
The female voice suddenly spoke angrily: “Did you see the rain outside?”
Gu Qing Shan was a bit shocked, but answered: “I’ve seen it”
“That rain means that there is something refining this world above the sky”
She continued: “I also know this secret method of yours, but the process to merge two worlds is a very long one, I’m afraid we can’t afford that much time”
