Chapter 917: The Impossible Measure Tribulation

The darkness continued to spread and patiently followed Gu Qing Shan.

The Law of Total Destruction within the darkness continued to turn everything in its path to dust.

This was the most terrifying part of the Measure Tribulation, a power that manifested from the Law of Heaven and Earth itself, something that no living being could resist.

The image collapsed.

Gu Qing Shan jumped out from it and entered the next image.

He quickly appeared in another location.

A cultivator stood facing him.

Blue Cloud Pass, Li Chang An.

This was a cultivator that he killed during the semester examination.

“You killed me, now it’s my turn to take revenge!”

Li Chang An was donning a General’s armor from the cultivation world as he charged at Gu Qing Shan with a spear in hand.

The spear split into countless images, all aiming at Gu Qing Shan’s vitals.

——–a mutual destruction fighting style right off the bat!

Gu Qing Shan braced the spear images, parried them with his sword, and stepped forward.

A flash of light lightly appeared by Li Chang An’s neck.

Li Chang An was blown away by the intense sword-infused wind and fell to the ground.

Bam!

The image collapsed.

Li Chang An’s death also faded away.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t even stop for a second and quickly entered the next image.

Roar———!

A tidal wave of black demons abruptly manifested.

As soon as they saw Gu Qing Shan, they charged at him with reckless abandon.

Gu Qing Shan wielded the Earth sword and unleashed myriads of sword images.

The demons were erased from this world by his attacks.

With Gu Qing Shan’s current Three Thousand Worlds realm cultivation, even sword images manifested from his spirit energy weren’t something that these demons could resist.

His advancement was swift and fluid.

Gu Qing Shan continued to move forward among the horde of demons, not a single one of them managed to take even one attack.

But his eyebrows were tightly knitted.

These demons were clearly the bunch that he killed through abusing his Tribulation in Shen Wu world.

But their powers were now equivalent to Ascended realm cultivators.

This increase was a bit too much.

And not only that.

The darkness was already approaching him, silently moving closer.

“Sorry, but you’re going to need to die a bit quicker”

Gu Qing Shan muttered.

Endless sword images bloomed from his swords and consumed every single demon within this image.

The darkness had arrived.

Gu Qing Shan got out of the image.

He avoided it!

But without time to catch his breath, he jumped into the next image.

“You killed me! You killed me!”

A cultivator loudly shouted.

Following him, several spirit beasts also appeared.

The cultivator that he killed as well as all the spirit beasts that died during the spirit beasts’ betrayal appeared together.

Gu Qing Shan wielded his sword and replied: “Military discipline is like a mountain”

When he was about to kill him, his mind suddenly became empty.

“Do not———”

A voice filled with regret and despair resounded by his ears.

Gu Qing Shan froze, goosebumps growing all over his body.

This voice seemed to have come from an extremely faraway place and took everything it had in order to reach me.

This was the giant corpse’s voice.

He seemed to have sensed me facing the Measure Tribulation so it was trying to remind me of something.

But the voice was cut off right away.

Behind Gu Qing Shan, the darkness was approaching even faster.

“Yah!”

With a full-power strike, Gu Qing Shan cut down every enemy in front of him.

The image collapsed.

He landed and swiftly ran into the next image.

What exactly is going on?

Gu Qing Shan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead as his heart started beating faster.

Why exactly did the giant corpse spare no effort just to send that sigh of despair and regret all this way to me?

Gu Qing Shan regained his senses and started to notice something was off.

He went into the next image and killed a Faceless Giant.

This Faceless Giant was among the horde of demons within the dark caves that led from the human realm to the Huang Quan realm.

The Faceless Giant’s strength had been increased to Sainted realm.

But that wasn’t the issue

The issue was that——

Its appearance proved that the next adversity he needed to face would be the monsters he killed in the Huang Quan realm and the quadrillions of dead people in hell.

If the rule of the Measure Tribulation stands, this wouldn’t be too hard for him.

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, the space in front of him became blurred.

A hole opened in the void of space as a black piece of scale fell in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Recognizing this scale, Gu Qing Shan caught it in his hand.

A black armor scale.

Yes, this is a black scale from the giant’s corpse armor!

When I learnt [Mystery of All Beings Equal], the giant corpse also gave it to me through a scale like this.

The [Mystery of All Beings Equal] was hidden inside it at the time.

Gu Qing Shan’s heart started beating faster again.

What exactly is the situation that the giant corpse would even spend the effort to send a piece of armor scale all the way to where I am at this point in time?

While continuing to head forward, he focused his inner sight on the black scale.

The scale suddenly shattered and turned into a glowing mystical rune in his hand.

The giant corpse’s voice sounded from it:

“I can’t help you any more than this, you need to quickly think of a way——-”

The voice was cut off.

Obviously, this scale had traveled through such a long distance that the remaining sentence was cut off.

At the same time, lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[Detected single-use technique: Law of the Land]

[Law of the Land: You can use one item you have as the anchor to add a Law from its world of origin into your current world. Duration: 3 seconds]

Skimming through the text, Gu Qing Shan’s mind quickly turned.

The giant corpse gave me this technique.

But why?

What is he trying to tell me?

Was my killing karma in Huang Quan so heavy that he felt he needed to give me a hand?

That can’t be right.

According to the Law, dead people within Huang Quan are considered to already be dead.

So I couldn’t have accrued much karma from killing them.

But if the Law of Heaven insisted that the karma for them are also accountable, then I would need to face the retribution of killing over a quadrillion living beings.

...that shouldn’t be the case.

Among the cultivation scriptures and inheritance I obtained, there was the experience of a Dao Lord from the Age of Old who had faced a Measure Tribulation.

According to that Dao Lord, although the Measure Tribulation is terrifying, the Law of Heaven and Earth are not absolutely cruel.

The Law of Heaven and Earth always leaves a bit of hope of survival for cultivators within a Tribulation.

——–this hope comes from the good karma and Merit that a cultivator accrued from his actions.

At the most dangerous point of the Measure Tribulation, the Law of Heaven and Earth would reference a cultivator’s Merit and good karma in order to nullify a portion of the Measure Tribulation’s power.

If a cultivator only kills without accruing any good karma, then this bit of hope would also be lost.

But everything I’ve done up to now has been to save people.

The Merit that I earned from saving the human realm and Huang Quan realm should be a lot greater than the bad karma I received from killing.

Normally, the hope for survival left within the Measure Tribulation should manifest soon.

Gu Qing Shan swung the twin swords to kill a bunch of vicious demons.

These were also the demons that stood watch in the dark cave, now also accounted by the Law of Heaven and Earth to be creatures Gu Qing Shan had killed.

The image collapsed.

Gu Qing Shan flew out, his expression a bit tense.

The Law of Total Destruction was still quickly approaching him. historical

There was another image in front of him.

The karma of killing within Huang Quan would be accounted for now.

Gu Qing Shan jumped forward, entering the image right as the Law of Total Destruction was about to catch up.

It felt a lot stranger when he entered the image this time around.

Gu Qing Shan felt himself falling down.

He looked below.

Countless dead people stood in every bit of space that they could stand within his sight.

Gu Qing Shan stopped mid-air and released his inner sight to check the places that he couldn’t see.

Endless.

Endless amounts of dead people filled this entire world, all of them with power equivalent to a Sainted realm cultivator.

Even as a Three Thousand Worlds realm cultivator, Gu Qing Shan’s strength was negligible when facing this insane amount of dead people at that power level.

“DIE!”

The dead people roared.

Gu Qing Shan waited for a split second——-

Nothing happened.

The Law of Heaven didn’t take his good karma and Merit into account and didn’t lower the degree of risk for his Measure Tribulation.

Instead, all the dead people charged forward at him.

Gu Qing Shan glanced at these dead people manifested by the Law of Heaven and Earth.

He couldn’t defeat them all, even if he could, he had no time.

The Law of Total Destruction was already right behind him.

This was a sure-death situation!

Gu Qing Shan suddenly understood what the giant corpse was trying to tell him.

He took out the Devil King Warden Rod and used the giant corpse’s technique on it.

“Law of the Land: Huang Quan!”

He shouted.

Oom!

The light of the technique enveloped the Devil King Warden Rod and added the Law of Huang Quan into this world.

But this Law would only last for 3 seconds!

Gu Qing Shan released the Earth sword without hesitation and cut open an empty area on the ground.

He landed, stabbed the Devil King Warden Rod into the ground, and shouted: “You’re all going to die once again!”

A red glow appeared from the Devil King Warden Rod and spread into this entire world in the blink of an eye.

[Soul Dispersion], activated!

[Rod Secret Art: Soul Dispersion]

[Description: The Devil King can use the power of the rod to permanently erase any disobedient dead people, the souls of those erased by this technique would dissipate and turn into the rod’s sustenance]

The world became empty.

All the dead people vanished into thin air, erased by the Devil King Warden Rod at the same time.

A clear shattering sound could be heard.

A world that was supposed to be able to kill him collapsed just like that.

Gu Qing Shan escaped from this image and once again moved forward.

But his expression slowly turned grim.

He had already understood the giant corpse’s message.

This Measure Tribulation.

Is impossible.

I need to quickly think of a way to escape from it!
