TN: Make-up chapters for the 4 that I didn’t upload yesterday will quickly go up before tomorrow’s chapters, so keep an eye out for them ^^

Without anybody questioning him on the way out, Gu Qing Shan quickly left the camp under the cover of night.

He returned to the bush of grass from before.

This was a very secluded area at the back of the mountain, perfect for hiding. If the two people hadn’t been sent here on a mission to investigate, no one would really pass by this place at all.

Releasing his inner sight to scan the area, he confirmed it was exactly how he left it, no one came by here at all.

Stabbing the Earth Sword on the ground, Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a bottle of Spirit Replenishing pills, taking two of them.

He sat down cross-legged, slowly using the method he comprehended to breakthrough.

A mystical spirit energy wave began to emit from his body, channeling a link to heaven and earth.

This is the signature wavelength of those breaking through.

「 What are you doing? 」 the Earth Sword couldn’t help but ask.

“I’m facing a Tribulation” Gu Qing Shan answered.

「 Ascended realm Tribulation? Right here!? 」 no matter how composed the Earth Sword’s temperament was, it still couldn’t believe what it was hearing.

“Ah, seems that way”

「 Did you fall into demonic possession during your cultivation? 」

“I didn’t”

The Earth Sword circled around Gu Qing Shan, confirming that there indeed were no problems.

It then began to speak with its echoing voice: 「 Ascension realm Tribulation takes around 1 whole day and night, the longest Tribulation of any realm, and considering how close we are to the enemy camp ——-are you really sure you want to breakthrough here? 」

“I’m not really facing the Tribulation; I just have some business with a special ‘friend’” Gu Qing Shan explained.

The Earth Sword couldn’t understand at all, but it didn’t ask anymore and just silently observed him.

Gu Qing Shan re-immersed himself in a breakthrough state.

Very quickly, his spirit energy began to let out the mystical wavelength again.

The heaven and earth of Shen Wu world itself was forming a link with him.

Not too long later.

An imp appeared from the void of darkness.

This imp’s head was full of eyes, aside from eyes, all it had was a terrifyingly large jaw of teeth.

Feeling a cultivator breaking through, the hundred-eyed imp came running to see if it managed to get something good.

『 What alluring, delectable flesh 』

It stared at Gu Qing Shan, drooling.

The Earth Sword flew up by itself and swung.

The hundred-eyed imp screamed in agony, then disappeared.

After that, a huge beast with a human face appeared.

The Earth Sword flew up and killed it in one slash again. historical

For the time being, no more monsters appeared from the void.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly said: “Don’t kill them too fast, it’s not good to scare them away”

「 What exactly are you trying to do? 」 the Earth Sword asked in an echoing voice.

“Making some friends” Gu Qing Shan answered.

The Earth Sword couldn’t help but circle around him again, then spoke: 「 Strange, you’re clearly not under demonic possession, why are your antics so weird today 」

The Earth Sword began to feel around him, then asked: 「 You’re only channeling the state of breaking through, but not actually circulating spirit energy to breakthrough? 」

“Correct”

「 Why? 」

“To lure them out”

「 To lure them ——–out? 」

“That’s right, it’s troublesome to explain it right now, you’ll understand when you see it” Gu Qing Shan replied.

After a few minutes, his eyes lit up and clapped: “Finally”

From the void, a wild-looking beautiful Tianma female descended.

Her thin shirt was half-open, revealing her thin waistline as she shook it and softly hovered to Gu Qing Shan.

『 Ahahaha, what a handsome young man, you’re about to breakthrough to Ascended realm, what a pleasant surprise 』 the Tianma smiled brightly.

“I’m very happy to see you, my name is Gu Qing Shan, can I ask for yours?” Gu Qing Shan very politely spoke.

『 It’s no fun to face the Tribulation, come and play with big sister instead, big sister has so much she could teach you 』the Tianma smiled, waving her sleeves.

A thin, transparent pink mist began to spread.

The mist was enveloping Gu Qing Shan.

The Tianma smiled happily, slowly approaching Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan stood still without doing anything.

Seeing that, the Tianma softly whispered: 『 Don’t worry, it won’t hurt, it’ll be fine very soon 』

One second before she acted, the Earth Sword gleamed.

The Tianma screeched, hurrying to hide into the void again.

The Earth Sword moved quickly.

“Leave her alive!” Gu Qing Shan shouted lowly.

The Earth Sword stopped, silently sitting right on the Tianma’s shoulder at her neck.

Gu Qing Shan puffed out in relief, then spoke to the Tianma: “Don’t worry, I just want to be friends, let us talk for a bit and then you can go”

The Tianma opened her eyes wide, thinking she might’ve heard that wrong.

『 Did you just say you wanted to be friends with me? 』 she completely forgot about the pain and just asked.

“Correct”

『 Do you know who I am? 』

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

The Tianma’s eyes rolled, then decided not to mind the sword right on her neck and sat down next to Gu Qing Shan.

She then moved closer towards Gu Qing Shan’s chest and softly spoke: 『 Young man, perhaps you fancy me? 』

Gu Qing Shan smiled, but his tone of voice was cold: “If you keep that up, even I will want to kill you”

Feeling his killing intent, the Tianma didn’t dare to move close to him again.

The Tianma retracted her look of allure and looked down at her hands.

She just grew both of them back.

The hands that were on the ground just now had disappeared.

『 What do you want exactly? 』 the Tianma looked at the weird person sitting before her and asked.

“I know you have a leader, probably a Formed Tianma Saint Lord or someone of that nature, can you help me have a little talk with her?” Gu Qing Shan spoke.

The Tianma looked at him, thinking she must’ve heard him wrong.

Throughout her long life, she had traveled to countless worlds, saw countless strange things and events, but the thing happening right now exceeds of all that.

『 You want to willingly meet the Lord? 』the Tianma asked.

“That’s right, I’ll have to trouble you to be a messenger” Gu Qing Shan answered.

『 Is your thing here sick or something? 』 the Tianma pointed at her head and asked.

“I’m quite healthy. I very sincerely want to meet your master once” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Within the ranks of Tianma, low-leveled Tianma are considered as high-leveled Tianma’s personal belongings, in other words, they don’t have personal rights.

Because of that, low-leveled Tianma call high-leveled Tianma their master.

『 Why do you want to meet her? 』 the Tianma glanced down at the sword at her neck and added: 『 I can tell you right now, if I did tell her that, she’ll think that I’m trying to make a fool out of her 』

She instinctively shivered, then continued: 『 She will definitely torture me for a few hundred years before killing me off completely 』

Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out the Tianma’s vase, holding it in hand.

A faint sound of female singing could be heard from inside the Tianma’s vase.

The singing was faint, unclear, seemingly close but also very far. If you pay close attention and try to listen to it, you could even fall into a charmed state and forget yourself.

“This thing here, will probably let you not be killed” Gu Qing Shan replied.

As soon as the Tianma saw the vase, her eyes couldn’t escape from it anymore.

『 This is the Tianma’s Pond of Vitality, that’s right, I definitely did not misjudge it 』she whispered.

The Tianma suddenly stood up and said: 『 I’ll go meet master and tell her your request 』

『 But with master’s overwhelming power, it will be very hard for her to descend on this world, she won’t necessarily come here herself 』

“Then what now?”

『 She might instead send one of her aides 』

“That’s fine as well, please” Gu Qing Shan gestured for the Earth Sword to move let her go.

The Tianma flew into the air, then suddenly disappeared.

After she left, the Earth Sword shouted in its echoing voice: 「 You want to cooperate with the Tianma to deal with the Virtualized realm cultivator? 」

“Not entirely, mostly just asking a tiger to skin itself” Gu Qing Shan replied. (1)

The Earth Sword spoke: 「 Do you not feel that the Tianma is a different species while cultivators, no matter what, are still fellow humans? 」

“Different species or not, that doesn’t matter” Gu Qing Shan spoke in a low voice, “no matter who it is, if they want to take a bite of the two worlds, even if they’re the son of heaven itself, I’ll make sure they break all their teeth”

Not too long later, the void of darkness began to shake.

The Tianma from before appeared first with a nervous expression: 『 She comes 』

“I’ve troubled you” Gu Qing Shan then stood up.

A soft glow of light flashed in the air.

The sound of female singing began to resonate from the void.

This time, it’s no longer the faint, blurry singing from before, but a loud and clear audible singing.

However, the tone and rhythm of the song sounded different, definitely not a human language and seems to be the Tianma’s language instead.

After the song continued for a short while, 12 blurry bulbs of flowers appeared from the space void.

The bulbs bloomed.

12 stunningly beautiful Tianma were standing inside the flowers.

They were the ones singing with their soft voices, elegantly descending from the sky.

11 of the Tianma went one by one before Gu Qing Shan, all curtsied to greet him, then stood solemnly on both sides.

The first Tianma from before bowed down, very respectfully guiding a black-clothed girl forward.

This black-clothed girl had a few shadows fluttering at her back.

The shadows were screaming, screeching in agony, seemingly going through all the worst tortures of the world.

The shadows weren’t just fluttering, they were writhing, struggling, trying to escape from her back.

But no matter how much they tried to run, in the end they were still pulled back behind the black-clothed girl by an invisible force.
