It was now that the Earth Sword flew back and hovered by Gu Qing Shan.
The Earth Sword was originally a ceremonial sword created for rites of offering to the Divinity, capable of contacting them.
Back in Shen Wu world, when Gu Qing Shan was facing his Tribulation, it managed to kill the ghosts and demons that appeared by itself.
Since he already knows how Divine the Earth Sword is, Gu Qing Shan wasn’t surprised, but Liao Xing was very shocked.
“A sword that can talk, that’s not scientific at all…” Liao Xing mumbled in confusion.
Cultivation scriptures and what-not, since Professionists exists, Liao Xing can still accept.
But not only can a sword talk, it was able to kill an invisible existence as well, completely turning his world view over its head.
Ye Fei Li didn’t have the mind to think that much, only worriedly asked: “How is Liu Shi Jun now?”
Gu Qing Shan circulated his spirit energy and looked at the tombstone again.
Now, Liu Shi Jun’s figure was almost too transparent to see.
“Not good!”
Gu Qing Shan shouted, tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a common Spirit Funnel formation plate.
As he infused it with his spirit energy, the formation instantly lit up.
A light breeze was building up in the room, followed by a thin mist.
A Spirit Funnel formation.
Gu Qing Shan took out another formation plate and triggered it.
Four Pillar Sealing formation.
The four pillars are Wind, Water, Fire, Earth.
These aren’t just normal elements, but rather the corner stones that make up a world.
This formation uses the essence of Wind, Water, Fire and Earth to create a miniature world, isolating the inside from the outside.
The Spirit Funnel formation together with the Four Pillar Sealing formation quickly created an isolated miniature world filled with spirit energy.
The essence of heaven and earth can nurture anything, including wandering spirits.
A miniature world isolated from everything else will stop unknown outside forces from interfering.
As the two formations were triggered, in just a few moments, Liu Shi Jun’s figure stabilized.
Gu Qing Shan sighed from relief.
Although maintaining two formation plates at once require spirit stones, Gu Qing Shan has the entire fortune and inheritance of Bai Hua sect on him right now.
With how many spirit stones he has, he can maintain these two formations for at least a few thousand years without trouble.
A few more moments later.
Being nurtured by the spirit energy, Liu Shi Jun’s figure started to become solid again, no longer transparent.
She looked down at her body, rubbing her chest from relief and sighed, still frightened.
She gratefully came and said something to Gu Qing Shan.
Of course, only Ye Fei Li can hear what she said.
Ye Fei Li also sighed from relief and told Gu Qing Shan: “She said thank you for saving her life. Although, she’s already dead so she doesn’t know if this is actually saving her life, or saving something else, anyways, thank you”
He also put his hand on Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder and spoke seriously: “I have to thank you as well for saving her for me”
Gu Qing Shan was thinking about something else.
He asked the Earth Sword: “What was that just now? It seems very different from monsters that I meet during Tribulations”
? Of course they’re different ? the Earth Sword answered, ? That was a Caretaker Hellspawn of the Frozen Hell ?
Gu Qing Shan repeated: “A Caretaker Hellspawn? Which means it should be representing the order or Huang Quan, why did it attack Liu Shi Jun just now?”
? A Caretaker Hellspawn is only one of many types that suppresses the evil in hell, I’m not too sure about why it did as it did either ?
The Earth Sword added: ? But it was indeed trying to absorb that soul over there, this is against the rules of the hells of Huang Quan, so I killed it ?
Gu Qing Shan didn’t ask any further.
He looked at Liu Shi Jun’s spirit form and contemplated.
“Fei Li, I have a certain technique here that will allow her to solidify her soul, ask her if she’s willing to learn it” Gu Qing Shan said.
Before Ye Fei Li could ask her, Liu Shi Jun was already nodding her head nonstop.
——-of course she could hear what everyone was saying.
And after a few conversations with Ye Fei Li, she knows just how powerful this person in front of her was.
Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a white brick.
He thought about it for a bit, then took out another thin piece of jade.
Gu Qing Shan copied the demonic cultivation method from the brick to the piece of jade. (1)
“This is the technique, after you learn it, your soul will gradually condense into a body, and if you manage to reach a high enough level, you’ll even be able to regain your senses of the real world once again”
“At that time, you’ll be exactly the same as a regular human, Ye Fei Li will be able to hear you even without his God’s Chosen Skill”
Gu Qing Shan slightly put the jade piece on the tombstone.
He then formed a hand seal and infused it with spirit energy
A dot of light appeared at the tip of his finger.
He lightly flicked the dot into Liu Shi Jun’s forehead.
It disappeared.
“What was that?” Ye Fei Li asked nervously.
“I initiated a certain technique for her, don’t worry” Gu Qing Shan said
Liu Shi Jun then had a look of understanding in her eyes and started bowing to Gu Qing Shan again and again.
She had learned how to read the information on the jade piece.
This is the simplest kind of spell there is, so Gu Qing Shan can easily initiate it for her.
“She said thank you” Ye Fei Li said.
“No need, but ask her why? she suddenly got attacked by the Caretaker Hellspawn” Gu Qing Shan said.
Liu Shi Jun then had a look of fear in her eyes as she waved her hands around, gesturing while retelling her story.
“A strange force was guiding her, telling her to go somewhere. When she tried to resist that force, her body started to dissipate” Ye Fei Li narrated for her.
“Somewhere? Ask her exactly where that is” Gu Qing Shan said.
Ye Fei Li asked, then told Gu Qing Shan: “Fuxi Empire’s Ridden Cloud Valley”
They both saw the seriousness in each other’s eyes.
The two of them had just returned from Ridden Cloud Valley, so they know very well that the Frozen Hell was there.
According to the Earth Sword, a Caretaker Hellspawn is supposed to suppress the evil of hell, yet it’s now helping the dead people from hell revive.
The implications of this is frightening.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly remembered something.
When Liu Shi Jun first died, she said there was also a guiding force, but then it got cut off.
That is why she remained in the human realm.
Gu Qing Shan instantly asked: “When you first died, was the guiding force back then the same as the guiding force now?”
“Think very carefully before you answer this”
Liu Shi Jun saw how serious he was, so she did her best to recall before answering.
“She said they were completely different” Ye Fei Li answered.
“Can you tell me exactly how the two forces differ?” Gu Qing Shan asked further.
“She said the first force was warm, full of kindness”
“While the second force was…”
Ye Fei Li looked at Liu Shi Jun.
Liu Shi Jun thought for a bit, then told him.
“Cold. Malicious. Powerful” Ye Fei Li repeated what she said.
Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
The first soul guiding force disappeared, replaced by a second, more evil guiding force.
——–if the guiding forces are different, could it be that all the hells in Huang Quan have a problem?
This was crucial information that humans wasn’t able to obtain in the past life.
During the last few years of the past life, calamities were already commonplace, everyone was? struggling just to survive, so no one bothered to look for the truth regarding the Frozen hell.
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
If all the hells in Huang Quan really had a problem, then the Frozen Hell is only the start.
According to what the cultivation world knows of the Path of Huang Quan, there’s more than just one hell in there.
Their problem wasn’t only the Frozen Hell anymore.
The human realm is facing a total invasion from several hells.
Note:
(1) demonic cultivation method: it’s exactly what you think it is, a cultivation method for those that uses demon to strengthen themselves instead of the traditional way.
