Chapter 1795 - Undoing the seal



Chapter 1795: Undoing the seal

Star Gazer city.

Gu Qing Shan was sitting by himself on the mechanical city square.

A few lines of bloody red text silently hovered in the air:

[The first time you activated Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Eyes, your total Merit value was 3]

[From that point, you’ve activated Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Eyes twice]

[Your current Merit value is 0]

...

Bah——

An immense force struck him.

Gu Qing Shan was sent directly outside through the large wilderness and rivers before gently landing on the ground.

Even the City Lord wasn’t allowed to remain within Star Gazer city if their Merit became zero.

Gu Qing Shan sighed and pulled himself to a nearby secluded location to rest.

——who could’ve thought, even after all that planning and scheming, even after exhausting all of my Merits, I still couldn’t kill the Eternal Mind Seizer.

Huh?

Wait a minute.

I’m thinking right now, why aren’t they trying to pick a fight with me again?

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.

Suddenly, a voice spoke to him:

「 The Samsara and I are now with you. We have something we need to do right now, but I have something I must say first—– 」

「 I’ve never thought that [Govern Spirit] could be used that way 」

——this was the voice of the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword.

Not too long ago, when Gu Qing Shan fought against the Lord of Annihilation and took its seed of power with [Virtue], the sword took that seed.

From then on, it had remained silent.

Up until now.

The broken fragments flew out by and began placing themselves together into the form of a cracked sword.

「 That insect was quite a bit above the Samsara’s imagination, it… wasn’t a void monster 」the Divine Sword explained.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised again.

—-not a void monster?

Then, what kind of place did it come from?

A different world system?

Or perhaps a Sequence?

With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan asked: “Can its background be confirmed?”

The divine sword answered: 「 It was a monster only spoken of in legends, there is almost nobody that has survived an encounter with it, so there are very little records, only a few off-handed mentions. Now that its original form had been witnessed and it managed to escape, the Samsara has gotten completely serious 」

“Then, are there any countermeasures?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

「 …This is what I wanted to tell you, the Samsara wants to borrow your ability to analyze that monster 」the divine sword explained.

“Me? What can I do?” Gu Qing Shan shrugged.

「 Although you are still very weak, your Earth Pillar God powers are unique within the Boundless Void, being able to collect that monster’s seed of power—— while I can sustain that seed of power and hand it over to the Samsara, allowing the Samsara to evolve and create a countermeasure for it 」the divine sword replied.

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

I had to dance on the verge of life and death for so long to obtain this seed, and now you’re telling me to hand it over—–

The divine sword continued: 「 Of course, you can also choose to keep the Eternal Mind Seizer’s seed of power and leave the Samsara Clash for Supremacy right now, that way, you’d have a chance to become an entity as powerful as it was 」

“Stop, I just need to hand it over right?” Gu Qing Shan answered right away.

Now that everyone has fallen into slumber, I will most likely require the Samsara’s help to awaken them and allow them to exist normally in this world.

Furthermore, what good would it do for me to obtain the Eternal Mind Seizer’s powers?

Even the original Eternal Mind Seizer had to plan for so long just to infiltrate the Samsara Clash for Supremacy for a chance to obtain the Samsara.

—-nothing can compare to the Samsara.

「 Can you give up the Eternal Mind Seizer’s power so easily? That power managed to triumph over countless Combatants in the Boundless Void, it’s practically unbeatable; even the Samsara couldn’t restrain it with the Huang Quan realm 」the divine sword asked.

“So what? Didn’t I manage to trick it despite all that? Come, take the seed of power from me, I guarantee I won’t even bat an eyelid” Gu Qing Shan patted his chest and declared sternly.

This is a matter of stance, so I need to answer resolutely!

「 Very good, your mind isn’t clouded even after obtaining such power, very praiseworthy 」

The divine sword told him.

From the void of space around it, a faint light began to manifest and gently flew towards Gu Qing Shan, circling around his body.

From the tomb river that was a bit further away, some monsters of obscure shapes began to appear.

They were attracted by the commotion here, wishing to take a closer look.

The divine sword then began to give off an even brighter light to fully envelope Gu Qing Shan.

This light was so vast and unending that it had practically warded off the darkness around this entire region.

But the approaching monsters appeared confused.

——they couldn’t see anything at all.

After waiting for a few moments, without being able to find anything, the monsters dejectedly returned to the river and swam away.

Within the light, Gu Qing Shan could feel an indescribable power slowly surfacing from the depths of his soul.

This is…

The Eternal Mind Seizer’s seed of power.

This power gradually manifested an illusion behind his back.

——endlessly long black tubes that filled one’s vision, continuously stretching into the unknown void.

Various fragmented and complicated information suddenly appeared in Gu Qing Shan’s mind.

This fragmented information when placed together bestowed Gu Qing Shan with a sense of enlightenment.

“…A larva…”

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but mutter these words.

As soon as he did, everything around him disappeared, replaced by a certain world filled with darkness in front of his vision.

Countless black tubes, countless corpses.

The black tubes were thoroughly absorbing everything there was to absorb from the corpses, turning them into pure sources of power as they siphoned that power into a colorful insect cocoon in the center of them all.

——the Eternal Mind Seizer!

As Gu Qing Shan silently observed it, he felt an increasingly growing chill from his stomach.

A single cocoon was absorbing the power from all of these corpses.

A cocoon…

Could it be evolving?

Following a lapse of his attention, the scenery disappeared.

Gu Qing Shan noticed that his connection to the Eternal Mind Seizer had been severed.

As the seed of power had disappeared, this was permanent.

He opened his eyes to look at his surroundings.

I’m still standing in the wilderness near the riverbanks of the tomb river.

The light surrounding him was flowing and becoming more intense.

After illuminating the surroundings for a while, the light returned inside the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword.

「 Go! Return to the Samsara! 」

The divine sword trembled continuously as it sustained the full power of the light before abruptly shivering.

The brilliant light shot into the sky, tearing through the darkness of the night sky before vanishing without a trace in mere seconds.

At this point, the divine sword finally spoke again:

「 What did you see just now? 」

“I had a sudden but clear thought, it was almost like that Eternal Mind Seizer——- was just a larvae” Gu Qing Shan shrugged and answered.

「 How could you tell that it was only a larva? 」the divine sword pursued the question.

“I don’t know why I drew that conclusion either” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The divine sword didn’t say anything else.

From the sky above, a sheet of paper swiftly descended.

The sheet of paper silently hovered in front of Gu Qing Shan’s vision, it was overflowing with light, but didn’t contain a single letter.

Gu Qing Shan looked at the sheet of paper, then at the divine sword.

「 Take it, you’ve given up too much, this is the Samsara’s reward for your efforts 」the divine sword said.

“Then I won’t hold back” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He caught the sheet of paper with his fingers.

Instantly, lines of bloody red text appeared in front of his vision:

[You’ve discovered a hidden legendary ferocious creature]

[You’ve renounced the Eternal Mind Seizer’s seed of power to the Samsara so that it can evolve]

[The Samsara has rewarded you with a mission:]

[Reforge the divine sword]

[Once you’ve completely reforged the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword, all of your sealed powers will return]

Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through the message.

The divine sword explained: 「 You’ve now become that monster’s enemy, so in consideration of this, the Samsara has allowed you to regain your full power after reforging me 」

“In other words, I’d regain my cultivation and be allowed to use sword techniques again?” Gu Qing Shan asked, a bit unsure.

「 That’s right, even your Spirit Arts can be used—— Spirit Arts are advanced void techniques that are on the same level as Samsara Divine Skills. The Samsara has given you permission to regain all of your powers to participate in the advanced confrontation against the Sequence Envoys 」

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.

Words couldn’t describe just how tough his battles had been up to this point.

He had to practically squeeze his wits dry every single time.

“That’s great… then I’ll think of a way to reforge you now”

He excitedly said.

「 No need 」the divine sword replied.

“Huh?” Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked.

「 The only thing you need to do is to come with me to retrieve my hilt, that way, I’d be complete 」the divine sword explained.

“Then—– what about reforging?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

「 It’s a very long story, all you need to know is that the Samsara has silently afforded you a lot of conveniences 」the divine sword replied.

“Huh?” Gu Qing Shan was very confused.

「 ——In reality, I was never actually broken in the first place, what you’ve all seen thus far is a disguise 」the divine sword explained.

The cracks on its body swiftly vanished without a trace.

It had returned to become a flawless indifferent sword———

Except for its hilt.

「 Come, take hold of me 」the sword told him.

Gu Qing Shan only paused for a brief second before he reached his hand out to grab the sword tightly.

Seemingly sensing his emotions, the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword gave off a lasting and resounding sword ring.

Instantly, lines of bloody red text appeared one after another:

[A sword has been discovered]

[Your powers are about to be unsealed]

[The Samsara is no longer rejecting you, so you will no longer be kicked out of the Samsara Clash for Supremacy after regaining your full strength]

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes before opening them again.

“Finally, I’m back”

He muttered with eyes filled with fighting spirit.
