Chapter 406: Dreamscape: Heaven realm and the girl
Gu Qing Shan sat back on the elephant steed.
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword returned to him.
Putting it away, he raised the Asura King scepter.
All Asuras looked upon him with expectant eyes.
A few Asuras were unable to hold themselves back from kneeling and cheering.
The four tribes’ Kings were either dead or heavily injured.
They had issued a challenge, but they were unable to defeat the heavily wounded King.
The King had once again proven his abilities.
“Who else, wants to challenge me?”
The Asura King asked.
All Asura became silent as none of them made a sound.
Absolute silence.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a while before nodding: “Very well”
He casually tossed the Asura King scepter back onto the back of his elephant.
“All troops, to Saint City”
“Yes!”
The Asura loudly replied.
The army started moving once again.
This time, no one tried to block their path anymore.
Their march slowly sped up.
Suddenly, all the Asura disappeared.
The elephant and the Asura King scepter disappeared as well.
Gu Qing Shan found himself once again sitting in an empty space.
The Asura King appeared across from him.
The Asura King lowered his head, staying silent without saying anything.
“Then, can I leave now?” Gu Qing Shan tried asking after some time waiting.
“Why did you think to give up the throne?” the Asura King asked.
“They’re strong but I am weak, the only way to make it more flexible for myself is to back off”
“But you didn’t keep your words, you didn’t give up the throne”
“All of them are dead and there are no more challengers, what else can I do but keep being King?” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Hearing that, the Asura King suddenly smiled.
“My mistake, my mistake”
Saying so, his body began to hover.
Space around him distorted as the Asura King was quickly framed and turned into a card.
This card floated in front of Gu Qing Shan.
On the card, the Asura King held his Asura King scepter, sitting on a large white elephant.
Everywhere around him were Asura tribesmen in armor.
Under the Asura King’s command, they rallied forward.
A few lines of text appeared at the bottom of the card.
[The most powerful warrior of the Asura realm, one of the rulers of the 4-realm allied army, a close friend of the Devil King]
[Due to his battle to the death with the 4 kings, he became exhausted, unable to make it to Saint City during the final battle to aid the Devil King. Unable to forgive himself, he volunteered to become a card and wait for 10,000 years]
[Asura King, Vengeance Deck spell card, once activated, the Oath of the 4 Realms from 10,000 years ago will once again be enforced]
[Oath of the 4 Realms: Heaven, Demon, Asura and Beast King must aid and never betray each other, an oath sworn by the rulers of the four realms]
After Gu Qing Shan read through all the text, the Asura King in the card looked at him.
“You did much better than I, if only I was able to remain as calm and conscious as you all those years ago…
The Asura King sighed.
“Come, let me guide you to the next dreamscape”
“Thank you”
Gu Qing Shan received the card.
The empty space around once again broke apart into tiny fragments that disappeared without a trace.
Gu Qing Shan now found himself in an entirely new scene.
Harmonic light that filled his vision.
An impressively tall structure created from pristine white marble and stones.
This was a large, open hall.
Quite a few people stood still around the hall.
Asura, Beast King, Demon, as well as a few who wore robes that covered their bodies, these should be the heavenly beings.
They were staring at a certain point in the hall, staring at Gu Qing Shan —–‘s side.
Huh?
Why can’t I move?
Is there something next to me?
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit strange.
While he was confused, a female voice came from beside him.
“Which is why I’m saying that I only wanted to do a bit of special research in hell, I’m not going to breach on your benefits, so stop bothering me”
Since Gu Qing Shan couldn’t even turn his head, he decided to just use inner sight to look at the situation.
What he saw was a young-looking girl wearing thick, black, round-framed glasses, holding a book standing next to him.
The girl looks weak at a glance, but was also emitting an unnamed presence that made people unable to take their eyes off.
She was the one who spoke just now.
Across from her, three of the rulers sat.
The literal Beast King, a Demon, and an old man wearing a luxurious red robe.
Obviously both the Beast King and Demon were only secondary characters, the red-robed old man was the true person in power.
Even after the girl had spoken, everyone remained silent without replying.
“So let’s end with that, farewell and see you later”
The girl pushed her glasses up and stood up.
Holding the book in one hand, she reached to grab Gu Qing Shan with the other.
Wait a minute!
What kind of situation is this!?
Gu Qing Shan protested in his mind.
Right after, Gu Qing Shan felt the sensation of chilling cold small hand grabbing him.
So she’s grabbing me now?
Gu Qing Shan hurriedly use his inner sight to look at himself.
Jet black shaft adorned with a horned skull on top, constantly letting out faint black mist.
The Devil King Warden Rod.
I’m the Devil King Warden Rod!
No wonder the girl grabbed me.
——-does that mean this girl is the Devil King of hell?
She must be, there’s no other explanations.
Only the Devil King would have this rod.
Gu Qing Shan froze.
Finding out this unbelievable truth, he couldn’t immediately regain his senses even with his experience.
Having grabbed him, the girl prepared to leave.
“Wait!”
As soon as the girl turned around, the red-robed old man’s voice came from behind.
“What else is there?” she asked.
“You said you’re doing research in hell. I want to know what exactly you’re researching?” the red-robed old man asked.
“Ah, so you’re worried about that”
The girl was obviously very interested in this matter.
“I’m actually researching that thing that exists behind the Grand Tie Wei Mountain”
“Behind the Grand Tie Wei Mountain? Who are you trying to fool, there is nothing but winds of chaotic tribulation there!” the red-robed man refuted.
“You people call it the winds of chaotic tribulation? That’s indeed what I’m researching”
The old man was cautious: “It can destroy everything, why would you be interested in that?”
“So many worlds out there doesn’t have such a terrifying kind of wind, even I only managed to find a few lines of description littered here and there on some precious and restricted documents”
The girl was very excited to speak about this.
“It was sheer fortune that I made it to your world and found such a miraculous existence like the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, and more importantly, the winds of chaotic tribulation. This is such a rare and terrifying power that of course I have to research it”
The red-robed old man stared at the girl and spoke disapprovingly: “But did you ever think, about what would happen if you made any mistakes and let the winds of chaotic tribulation get into the world of Huang Quan? The rest of the six worlds would then be destroyed by that wind!”
“All of us here would die, we wouldn’t even have the chance to reincarnate”
Hearing that, the girl waved her hand dismissively: “Don’t worry, after so many years of research and experiments, I’ve always followed an iron-clad rule”
“What’s that?”
“Safety first”
After saying so, seemingly felt that her words were not convincing, she opened her book and took out a card for everyone to see.
It was a card with a giant eye.
Faint white mist came from the eye, erupted and formed an intense whirling spiral.
“See, this is the rarest kind of fate divination card. Whenever I do research, I would place it by my side, before every step is certified and confirmed, I would always check the card”
“It can always tell me what are the results and consequences that will follow my actions”
The girl laughed proudly.
“It took me a lot of effort to get this card you know”
Then suddenly, her excited expression stopped.
The card in her hand had began blinking in a dark light.
This was a bad omen.
The girl quickly turned the card around to look at it.
The white mist that had filled the card before was now gone.
It was now replaced by a corpse.
Her own corpse.
