Chapter 1258: Vortex of the era

“Your grace, let me take you there” the Grand Elder looked at Gu Qing Shan, practically begging him with his eyes.

Looking over him, Gu Qing Shan held an expression of disdain, as well as hesitation.

——-after all, he had acted so high and mighty that if he suddenly agreed so readily now, that would instead cause the other party to be suspicious.

He simply narrowed his eyes, giving the old man an evaluating gaze, apparently considering something.

This attitude caused the Grand Elder to feel even more panicked.

“Your grace, please do not worry, in truth, when we escaped the Apocalypse to enter this world, there would ultimately be all sorts of issues”

“Especially when that Wraith’s corpse seems to be waking up”

“At this crucial point in time, some people attempted to cooperate with the wraith’s successors; some wished to take the secrets all for themselves, and even the leftover True Tombs within the great tomb; some wished to look into the events just before the Samsara’s shattering——- all in all, with so many factions and sides, there would be countless skirmishes, your grace will surely need some support”

Gu Qing Shan acted like he was pondering.

I didn’t think these monsters would also stand on different sides.

But that wasn’t surprising, as there would be benefits and strife wherever there were living beings, never before had there been an exception to this.

For now, both the Tomb of Myriad Beasts and the Wraith realm have their eyes set on that Wraith’s corpse.

There is possibly an unprecedented secret to be discovered from the Wraith’s corpse.

Then, the monsters who wish to cooperate with the Wraith realm would naturally be my enemies.

——all in all, I seemed to have been caught up in a crucial historical event.

Gu Qing Shan’s heart felt heavy.

This event that could possibly alter everything in existence, occurred in a tomb of the Samsara.

Gu Qing Shan could almost guarantee that this would be related to the entire Samsara—— or perhaps, not only just the Samsara.

How many individuals have been preparing for this?

What exactly would that Wraith’s corpse bring into this reality?

In this era, at this crucial historical moment, how many are hiding behind the scenes, plotting and planning for secrets that I can’t even fathom?

Those who could participate in such an affair could not possibly be foolish.

Perhaps their clash right now would determine the future of the infinite worlds.

Regretfully, there is too little information.

These people had been making their preparations for countless years, while I’ve only just arrived.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt a heavy sense of helplessness.

But he soon regained his senses and said:

“Then I ask you, what does your group in his location focus on doing?”

A female voice suddenly replied:

“We focus on researching the secret of the Samsara’s shattering in the past”

Gu Qing Shan didn’t turn around.

This was Shan Hai Qi Xia’s voice.

She had personally returned from the great tomb.

The Grand Elder hurriedly shouted: “Why did you come back? Without you at the lead, our people there would surely be at a disadvantage”

“It is fine, all of us have returned” Shan Hai Qi Xia stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and slowly spoke.

Half a dozen individuals with different attires and age spread out from behind her, quickly surrounding the room.

Old Man Embracing Bones and Extinguishing Saintly Hands were also among them.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t react much.

This place had been completely sealed off; I can’t afford to display any weakness.

His gaze scanned through these people.

“Who are you?”

He looked at Shan Hai Qi Xia, speaking with the tone of a superior.

Shan Hai Qi Xia smiled, then made a gesture.

The others quickly followed her signal to chant an incantation and release an isolation barrier, cutting off the highest floor of this black tower from the rest of the world.

From this moment, no one from the outside would be able to scry any information from here.

Shan Hai Qi Xia walked up to him, then knelt on one knee and spoke: “As soon as [Ethereal] was unleashed, I was able to sense its unique fluctuations. I did not think your grace the Shaman would awaken even earlier than I had expected”

She seemed a bit eager, and continued: “When this child unleashed [Inch Desolation] earlier, I immediately knew it was your grace”

Gu Qing Shan paused for a brief moment.

He curtly said: “So it was you”

——these monsters should have been separated from one another by the Apocalypses in the great tomb.

Then, what’s going on here?

These thoughts quickly flashed through Gu Qing Shan’s mind.

“Indeed” Shan Hai Qi Xia looked up, her eyes practically glowing as she looked at Gu Qing Shan: “Your grace, I did not think that you would specifically choose a person of my sect to reconvene with me”

Gu Qing Shan stared closely at her, then muttered: “That was a coincidence, I had actually chosen this person due to his background...”

He acted like he just recalled something and stopped speaking.

—–this woman suddenly came closer, acting like we’re acquainted, but I don’t know anything at all, so how am I supposed to continue?

Even as experienced as he was, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t predict that things would progress in this manner.

The only thing I can do now is to make sure the conversation is limited to what I know.

Otherwise, if I’m exposed, everything would be a waste.

Sure enough, Gu Qing Shan’s words managed to rouse their curiosity.

The 8 people all turned to Gu Qing Shan, but none dared to ask.

Asking meant courting death.

After all, this matter was the Shaman’s personal business, related to his power.

Only Shan Hai Qi Xia cautiously asked: “Has your grace’s fist technique advanced further?”

Gu Qing Shan curtly nodded, then replied:

“My fist techniques have grown stronger, but limited by the lack of Samsara derivative power, so I am unable to exert my full power”

Merely from a power perspective, [No Pardon] was a more advanced power compared to [Inch Desolation]

No one would be able to fault his choice.

Everyone appeared glad.

——Who would not hope that the one they followed was strong?

If that strong personage could become even stronger, that was naturally a good thing.

“However... to give up the authority of the Primordial Shaman Deity... is it regretful...” Shan Hai Qi Xia said.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

So that monster’s original Deific Authority was that of the Primordial Shaman.

And I killed it.

If it truly managed to replace me and take over my body, it would naturally meet up with Shan Hai Qi Xia.

What was its plan?

Does it have adversaries?

What would those adversaries think?

Seeing Shan Hai Qi Xia about to say something else, Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively and said: “Tell me about the current situation, I’ll tell you more about the Deific Authority later tonight”

Since he had ordered so, Shan Hai Qi Xia could only swallow her questioning words and explained: “The situation is very complicated. Like the Desolate Black Simian Deity had said, the others all have their own schemes. A few of them have reached a consensus with the people of the Wraith realm, while some others have banded together in preparation to kill them all——– they would not hold back, as they wish to obtain everything for themselves”

Gu Qing Shan silently chuckled, then repeated: “Would not hold back, huh?”

His gaze passed through everyone in the room.

One, two, three... not counting the Grand Elder and myself, there were eight of them in total.

One person returning is no issue, but eight...

That’s too huge of a commotion.

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Did all of you return, or did you leave someone there?”

“Leaving one or two of us there would have been too dangerous, so all of us returned” Shan Hai Qi Xia continued: “Of course, if we truly fought, all of us would not hold back, your grace sir——”

Gu Qing Shan cut her off: “Listen, I’ve only just awakened, while you have been managing this place for a while, so I need to know how you’ve been operating. Believe me, this is very crucial”

While saying so, he focused some attention on his left eye.

—–both the [Parallel Dream], and [Time Recollection] techniques cannot be used right now.

Otherwise, I’d be able to obtain a lot more information, not resorting to cutting someone else off to prevent them from asking things I would not be able to answer.

Seeing how serious he was about it, Shan Hai Qi Xia somberly replied: “While your grace wasn’t here, we had consistently remained observers without making any reckless moves”

“Although I do not know what happened to the corpse, it is incorrect to continue being observers in the current situation” Gu Qing Shan immediately replied.

Everyone looked at him in confusion.

Shan Hai Qi Xia patiently said: “Your grace, you’ve only just awakened, so perhaps you do not know the specific situation”

——indeed, everyone knew that he had only just awakened, having no clue about this matter.

Among the matters that the Grand Elder mentioned earlier that he didn’t know about, the Wraith’s corpse was one of them.

Because of that, regardless of how Gu Qing Shan spoke regarding the Wraith corpse, he would not expose himself.

He would be able to borrow this matter to mention one of his worries.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Do not take others for fools. When two tigers fight, they would never allow someone else to stand on the sideline and reap the profits”

“If you tried to retreat and wait for those two groups to slaughter one another, they might just join forces temporarily to get rid of you all before proceeding to their final clash”

Everyone stayed silent.

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

If I had been their core combative strength and never once revealed myself, then their decision to hide their strength to silently observe the situation would have been a practical tactic.

But this Wraith’s corpse had already started changing, and the struggle for benefits had already reached a point where true mettle must be shown.

In this situation where everything is hanging by a thread, the more one remains unresponsive, the more issues they would prove themselves to have.

Gu Qing Shan then thought of something and said: “I can tell you, the reason why I had changed my Deific Authority, other than the fact that my fist techniques would become stronger, there was another crucial reason”

“Your grace, what reason is that?” Shan Hai Qi Xia asked.

In truth, she had been quite confused about this but hadn’t fully considered where the issue might lie.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Because of the current situation——- unless my assumptions are incorrect, the others should have already followed you here”

Before he finished his words, he abruptly unleashed countless shadowy fists.

[Ethereal – Grand Mountain]!

Shan Hai Qi Xia felt strong gusts of wind blowing throughout the entire room.

Boom!

The ceiling was blown open, exposing dozens of black figures in front of them all.

These figures were not weaker than any of the people here.

They could be seen to be humans.

——all of them were tomb monsters who had substituted their bodies.

Suddenly, a resounding voice echoed in the air:

“War Shaman, so you’ve actually gotten smarter through the torture of the Apocalypse”

A figure revealed itself. historical

Shan Hai Qi Xia uttered in shock: “Desolate Beast King God!”

Gu Qing Shan observed that figure, silently complaining in his mind.

This is only the beginning.

The vortex of the era had only just started to swirl.

The true monster bigshots had only just prepared themselves for a brutal struggle of life and death.

The direction of history will slowly be decided within the foul stench of blood and calculations.

And now.

I’ve been caught up in that vortex.
