Chapter 1731: Perfect form!

Translator: La0o9

As soon as Gu Qing Shan made his move, Zhang Ying Hao also moved.

Like a shadowy ghost, he appeared behind the wolf old man without a sound, mercilessly thrusting his spiked dagger into the old man’s chest. He gripped the hilt tightly before forcefully twisting it.

The wolf old man originally could still struggle a bit, but completely stopped breathing after this attack.

Zhang Ying Hao’s eyebrows relaxed slightly and wanted to pull the dagger back, but Gu Qing Shan called out:

“Don’t move—–~~’

Gu Qing Shan swiftly stepped forward and swung the blade in his hand with all his strength.

The wolf old man’s head was sent flying and rolled a short distance away.

Zhang Ying Hao shrugged: “He’s already dead, there was no need to cut off his head”

Gu Qing Shan sheathed his blade and replied: “They’re beasts, their body structure is different from ours, so if he happens to be able to survive getting stabbed in the heart, it would be a lot of trouble for us”

—-5 no one could be sure what kind of preparations the other party might have.

So the best solution was to not give them a chance to act at all.

This was the most basic strategy behind Gu Qing Shan’s fighting style.

Zhang Ying Hao pondered briefly before praising him: “Good call”

Gu Qing Shan stood still and waited, but didn’t see the supernatural phenomena of Huang Quan manifest.

He was a bit surprised.

Could all of those Chosen Saints have entered Huang Quan right away after getting killed?

Shan Hai Qi Xia noticed the look on his face and explained: “No need to wait, the entire Elements War Zone is quarantined from the Samsara, so those who die here wouldn’t be able to leave or return anywhere. Only after the Elements have been established and the world becomes stabilized that the seal

on this place would become undone, allowing them to enter reincarnation”

“So that’s how it is” Gu Qing Shan commented in surprise.

He introduced Zhang Ying Hao and Shan Hai Qi Xia to one another.

“Completely turning against them, not leaving a single one alive——- did these Beast King realm people offend you somehow?”

Li Chun Dao asked.

“They didn’t offend me, but they were planning to attack you all sooner or later” Gu Qing Shan answered.

“WHAT!?” Li Chun Dao exclaimed.

“What exactly is going on?” Shan Hai Qi Xia asked.

Gu Qing Shan explained what he heard in the Beast King realm shelter.

Li Chun Dao sighed: “So that’s how things were”

“Iknew they were up to no good” Wang Shun scoffed.

“These Beast Kings awoke from their slumber, so they overwhelm us in both number and strength, almost taking the Beast King realm under their total control—– even if we only consider the number of Chosen Saints, they outnumber us by several times” Shan Hai Qi Xia worriedly commented.

Everyone fell into silence.

Sie the strength of both sides was so far apart that if the other side bared their fangs, the humans in the Tomb of Myriad Beasts would face disaster.

That’s a very difficult problem to resolve.

Gu Qing Shan pondered for a few moments before suggesting: “You all must quickly regain your strength, ensuring that all the human Chosen Saints awaken their own Samsara Divine Skill. That way, the other party would not dare to act recklessly”

Shan Hai Qi Xia said: “But behind the Beast King realm there’s still the Heaven realm, in fact, they’ve been receiving orders from the Heaven realm the entire time”

Gu Qing Shan resolutely told her: “Go into hiding, for now, all of you. Don’t hold any wishful thinking, the one behind them is even more difficult to deal with than you can imagine”

a7 the Heavenly Emperor.

By himself within the Boundless Void, the Heavenly Emperor completed the Samsara’s evolution without anyone noticing. If I hadn’t discovered it at the very last moment and pursued him through the Reality Gate, he would have succeeded as well!

There’s no way such a character would be easy to deal with.

Shan Hai Qi Xia’s expression suddenly changed: “Oh no, Qiu Yu and the others are still being monitored by the others from the Beast King realm, they’ll surely realize that something is wrong on this side very soon, we need to hurry up and return!”

Li Chun Dao and Wang Shun also became anxious as they realized this.

“Wait!”

Gu Qing Shan told them in a heavy tone: “If you all return right now and are unable to defeat them, wouldn’t that be meaninglessly seeking your deaths?—– have any of you awoken your Samsara Divine Skills?”

“Not yet, we’ve actually been working under them to collect enough Merit for that” Shan Hai Qi Xia answered.

Gu Qing Shan thought about it briefly before saying: “The badge that the old man gave us earlier had quite a few Elemental Cores sealed inside, according to him, they’ve already killed almost a thousand Elemental monsters—– take 97 Elemental Cores out for me”

“Alright” Shan Hai Qi Xia replied.

She didn’t know why Gu Qing Shan didn’t take it himself and instead had her do it.

But since he wasn’t telling her, she didn’t want to ask.

Very quickly, a total of 97 Elemental Cores were neatly laid out on the ground.

They’d all manifested into either dark yellow rocks or bright red gems.

It was a mystery what kind of method the Beast King realm had used to kill the Elemental monsters without destroying their Elemental Cores.

—–4 ut it was clear that they had a very detailed plan of action.

“Why is there only Elemental Earth and Fire cores here? Did they not obtain the other Elemental Cores?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Three out of the Five Elements have been established, only Earth and Fire remain. Once Earth and Fire have been established as well, all five main Elements will have been stabilized, then the five mutated Elements of Wind-Lightning-Light-Dark-Sound will manifest and the Human realm will fall into

chaos once again” Shan Hai Qi Xia worriedly explained.

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

This was the same thing as what Li An told me.

It’s a shame that I appeared a bit late to take the initiative.

—-but fortunately, it’s not too late yet.

He swung his blade, manifesting bright slashes with each swing, completely destroying all 97 Elemental Cores.

In an instant, lines of bloody red text manifested in the void of space:

[Current Merit: 3]

[Obtained Merit: 97]

[You’ve collected 100 points of Merit in total, the Samsara is imbuing you with Origin power]

[In five seconds, your Divine Skill: Lightning Wraith (incomplete) will evolve to its perfect form]

(5)

[4]

(3)

[2]

O)

Arcs of lightning immediately emerged from Gu Qing Shan’s body, making him seem like a descended god.

[Your Samsara Divine Skill: Lightning Wraith has been completed, manifesting into its perfect form]

[Lightning Wraith: Your body turns into lightning, your speed as great as any bolt of lightning, unobstructed by any magical barriers. In battle, Tribulation Lightning will descend to help you, the longer you fight, the more powerful the Tribulation Lightning will become]

Quickly reading through the description, Gu Qing Shan was silently surprised.

Tribulation Lightning—–

Isn’t that what cultivators have to endure whenever they face a Heavenly Tribulation?

Why did the Samsara place something like that into a Divine Skill?

However.

Everyone’s strength is currently sealed with only their Samsara Divine Skills being usable.

I’ve always felt like [Lightning Wraith] lacked the offensive capabilities of the gigantic spears——

But now I don’t have to worry about it anymore!

With the Tribulation Lightning aiding me, my odds of winning in battle would be greatly increased!

Several more lines of bloody red text appeared in the void of space:

[You’ve collected 100 points of Merit, thus completing the first step of awakening your Samsara Divine Skill]

[You can choose to remain in the Elements War Zone to investigate the Samsara’s secrets, or return to the Human realm]

etait it turns out I can return as soon as I collect 100 points of Merit.

But seeing how many secrets might be hidden in this Elements War Zone, how could I arbitrarily leave?

“TIl remain here” Gu Qing Shan said.

He then regained his senses and turned to Shan Hai Qi Xia: “What else is inside the badge given by the wolf old man?”

Shan Hai Qi Xia answered: “There are still over 900 Elemental Cores, as well as a lot of treasures”

—— Jet’s ignore the treasures.

Gu Qing Shan immediately told her: “You can keep that for your own use, quickly awaken your Samsara Divine Skill, then help Li Qiu Yu and Zhao Qiong awaken their Samsara Divine Skill as well, only then would you have the most basic level of self-defense——- do it as soon as possible!”

“What about you?” Shan Hai Qi Xia hesitantly asked.

“Ihave other business to take care of, so I can’t accompany you all after this” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Ineed to quickly take a look at a Wraith realm shelter to see what’s going on.

Not to mention that most powerful monster.

Talso need to investigate the secrets of this Elements War Zone.

Shan Hai Qi Xia stared closely at him and asked: “Do we really not need to leave you anything?”

Gu Qing Shan said: “Ah right, leave me some food”

Shan Hai Qi Xia asked in return: “You want food?”

“Yeah”

The other three exchanged glances, all of which seemed surprised.

This guy doesn’t want any treasure or Elemental Core, but he wants food?

They handed all of their rations to him.

Taking at the food, Gu Qing Shan happily said: “This is enough”

“Then we’ll head out first” Shan Hai Qi Xia said.

“Hurry up and go, I won’t be able to help you on that side, so you all should take care of yourselves” Gu Qing Shan reminded her.

“You’re already helping us a lot with these Elemental Cores” Li Chun Dao clasped his fist.

“We owe you another one” Wang Shun said.

“Don’t mention it, we’re all on the same side” Gu Qing Shan laughed.

The other three also smiled.

They each took out an appropriate number of Elemental Cores to awaken their Samsara Divine Skills, then quickly disappeared right in front of Gu Qing Shan.

—-they’ve returned to the Human realm.

There were still many people waiting for them there.

At this point, Zhang Ying Hao finally spoke up:

“Hey, how come you gave everything away like that? Should’ve at least kept some of the treasures”

“Why do we need to keep some treasures?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Once everyone has woken up, there will be so many of us that the only thing you hear us asking for is money” Zhang Ying Hao chuckled.

Gu Qing Shan smiled wryly and explained his debt to the Book of the Sea.

Zhang Ying Hao stared at him closely before finally speaking up: “So you’re currently living a life of eternal poverty right now?”

“Yeah, call out the black cat, we’re heading to our next destination” Gu Qing Shan said.

Zhang Ying Hao blew a whistle.

The black cat emerged from a bush and ran towards them.

“Where’s the next destination?” Zhang Ying Hao asked.

“The Wraith realms shelter, I need to go there and take a look. I can sense that something is waiting for me in that place” Gu Qing Shan replied.

–~-this was a feeling coming directly from his spirit sense, which hadn’t disappeared even after his strength had been sealed.

Suddenly, a sharp howl came from the distance:

[ Trying to run? No, you’re both going to die right here |

A boundless, unrecognizable presence suddenly erupted into a giant blast of wind.

The wind blew the dust and sand all the way to the sky, obscuring everything within it.

Such power——~

Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed.

In that instant, he did two things.

“You’re the one who’s going to die!”

He shouted, activating Red Dragon Origin Hex – Twist and dispelling [Moon Invitation] at the same time!

Zhang Ying Hao and the black cat both instantly vanished without a trace, returning to the [Order] and falling back into slumber.

Almost at the same time, two sharp bone spikes emerged from the dust storm, aiming straight for Zhang Ying Hao and Gu Qing Shan’s locations.

—–4 for Red Dragon Origin Hex – Twist, even the lack of answer from the enemy was considered an answer.

And since Zhang Ying Hao had returned, he was naturally not struck.

As the bone spike arrived in front of Gu Qing Shan, it suddenly shot backwards.

[ Huh!? J

A shocked voice called out from inside the dust storm.

Taking that opportunity, Gu Qing Shan drew his blade and took a few steps back.

He took a fighting stance on the spot.
