Chapter 920: Convicts

Gu Qing Shan looked down at the rune in his hand.

He gradually had an understanding, as if he knew exactly what he should do to achieve what he wanted.

Following his thought, the shining rune shattered and turned into scattering sprites of light that entered his Thought Sea.

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

[You’ve absorbed the Mystery rune]

[You’ve chosen to upgrade Mystery of All Beings Equal]

[This ability is currently undergoing change, please do not attempt to use this ability for the next three hours or it would affect the change it is undergoing]

[After three hours, your ability to use this Mystery will be greatly improved]

[By the way, here’s hoping that your acting is even more successful from now on]

Gu Qing Shan scowled as he read the last sentence.

“Where did you go?”

Lin asked him with an expression of interest.

Gu Qing Shan regained his senses and replied: “To see an old friend, every time I break through, he would be able to sense it and bring me to where he is to hang out and have a friendly conversation”

Lin stared at him with an unconvinced expression.

Gu Qing Shan then told her about the matter of the Measure Tribulation, then further explained: “He’s currently being held inside a small world, unable to move, so only occasionally would I be able to come and meet him”

Lin spoke with some thought: “Next time, take me with you to see him” historical

Seeing Gu Qing Shan’s doubtful expression, she explained: “The one you met might have been a convict”

“A convict?”

“Indeed, ever since the start of humanity’s civilization, we’ve found so many inexplicable things in countless inexplicable spaces, no one knows what exactly they’re used for, or why the lifeforms within them were imprisoned”

“You mean——”

“Don’t ask, I don’t know a lot about it either”

Lin showed a rare exhausted expression and replied: “Sometimes, I really hope that humanity just lived in a universe all by themselves. There would be no strange or bizarre things around them and no one would have any supernatural abilities, such a life would probably be a lot more peaceful, unlike us. In this reality with infinite worlds and infinite secrets, there’s a chance to randomly run into issues at every step of the way, forcing everyone to move forward as carefully as possible”

Since it was rare for Lin to take the initiative to talk about herself, Gu Qing Shan put some thought into the circumstance that she mentioned.

Right now, he felt that Lin was quite interesting.

——–she was most likely a person who had been through a lot of as well.

Gu Qing Shan smiled: “But that way, everyone would be helpless against death, diseases, and old age, is that what you hope for?”

“If reincarnation exists, I actually don’t mind” Lin muttered.

“But the Samsara is actually a kind of weapon” Shannu chimed in.

“That’s true, but that doesn’t affect our lives. Being able to naturally cycle around within the natural reincarnation, doesn’t that sound like a good life?” Lin replied.

Gu Qing Shan’s smile froze.

“That’s true, a soul is able to cycle among the Samsara in reincarnation, but reincarnation itself was a weapon...” he muttered.

He was recalling the time he brought Barry and Kitty back to his homeworld. Due to them being able to revive after death, the Soul Shrieker’s subordinates weren’t at all afraid of Barry and Kitty.

But what ended up happening instead?

I used the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and the Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook to keep them in that world!

Their souls were then brought into Huang Quan, then thoroughly eliminated by the Devil King Warden Rod.

During their last moments in the Huang Quan realm, when the Soul Shrieker almost manifested, I also used the Devil King Warden Rod to stop it.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized.

Is this the true value of the Samsara?

No matter what kind of enemy I face, within the Samsara, they would be the same as those people, unable to keep their Eternal or undying characteristics?

This will need to be tested further...

“What’s the matter?” Lin asked.

“It’s nothing”

Gu Qing Shan regained his senses and silently kept that matter in mind.

The most important thing right now is to grow stronger, that is the basis for everything else.

Gu Qing Shan began to contemplate his next course of action.

First of all, increasing the grade for my Envoy of Condemnation card needs more consideration, it isn’t something I can resolve right away.

After leveling up, I still need to use my Cards to create a world.

——-this requires me to find items that contain the Law of the Inner Plane, which can be done while I’m increasing my Card grade.

Then, how should I increase my Card grade?

Gu Qing Shan carefully recalled Little Dusk’s words from back then.

...

“There are three ways to get stronger. The first is like what you’re doing and naturally advance; the second is to consume other cards; the third is to find any heritage of the Divinities from the Age of Old and use them to increase the grade of your card”

...

There were no such things as Old Gods in the Age of Old, so that part was most likely incorrect.

Gu Qing Shan silently thought to himself.

Little Dusk was brainwashed to think that the Divinities created everything.

This means those ‘heritage’ should be precious materials left behind by the Bygone Era humans.

After all, those materials could be used to create powerful Soul Artifacts or used for an [Order] to evolve.

Right now, natural advancement is literally impossible, looking for materials from the Bygone Era humans would be extremely difficult, so the best way is for me to look for a few Cards to consume.

After thinking everything through, Gu Qing Shan grabbed the Chao Yin sword and slashed the sky.

A blinding sword phantom flew up to the sky.

Being cut by the sword phantom, the night sky split apart like a pair of curtains, slowly receding to either side.

The images of numerous worlds appeared in the sky, neatly lined up to look like a revolving carousel that extended far into the sky.

Three thousand worlds had appeared.

“We’ve been through a lot, so let’s find somewhere to rest first” Gu Qing Shan turned towards Lin, “Can you take a look and choose where we should go?”

Lin was surprised for a short moment.

Rest...

That was a really unfamiliar word for her.

“Why me?” Lin asked.

“Because you’re wounded, we need to find somewhere that you can feel relieved to rest in and recover” Gu Qing Shan shrugged.

Regardless of what the Earth Creator had planned in Riddle World, there was no way for them to get there right now or move forward from Riddle World and follow the star chart to return to the Strife Zones.

So the best solution right now was to find a world to reorganize themselves, wait until Lin’s wounds were healed, and slowly keep an eye out for information about Riddle World.

Lin lightly inhaled, then looked up at the sky.

A few moments later.

“Gu Qing Shan”

“Yes?”

“There’s something...”

“What?”

“Do you have money? The kind that can be used to pay for food and inns”

“Ah, that? Wait a bit”

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.

He then searched inside his Inventory Bag and took out a small black bag.

Yes!

This was the spoils of war he obtained from killing a relatively high-ranking member of the Holy Church of Death.

Originally, this was supposed to be split with the demon scorpion family, but since they were separated, he naturally kept it all for himself.

And there was quite a bit of money here!

Gu Qing Shan took out a small coin from the small bag.

This was a dark blue coin that depicted an octopus-like monster on the head side and the number #109 on the tail side.

——–this was the #109 coin——- the most valuable coin within this small bag, one that had some special powers.

“A replica coin from the Divine race? I’ve never really thought much about these counterfeits” Lin looked at the coin and commented.

“Of course they aren’t as powerful as the Bygone Era human coins, but they’re good for daily use” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He then muttered in his mind: “Cold Drinks”

Pop!

A small sound came out.

After Gu Qing Shan muttered the keywords, the octopus on the head side of the coin spat out a large wooden chest.

Gu Qing Shan caught the wooden chest, opened it up between the two girls, and asked them: “Want something to drink?”

In truth, this was a fridge with various liquor stored inside.

Shannu transformed into her human form without hesitation and chose a glass of fruit punch.

“Thank you, gongzi”

She took a sip and smiled.

Lin looked inside, grabbed a carton of milk, and started drinking.

Gu Qing Shan picked out a bottle of strong liquor, popped it open, and took a large swig.

The three of them silently enjoyed their drinks as they stared at the rotating images in the sky.

Hm...

It feels great to be able to rest a bit.

Gu Qing Shan rolled his eyes a bit, turned to look at Lin, and carefully asked: “Ah right, did you take an Envoy of Condemnation girl called Little Dusk...”

“The one in control of the Strife Zones right now is Demon Dragon, everything I’ve hidden was taken by it already” Lin casually admitted.

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Lin continued: “Don’t think too much about it, as long as the Ring of Vow returned to me, I’ll eventually look for Demon Dragon to take my revenge. At that time, I’ll take that little girl back and return her to you”

“Thank you”

“As long as you keep in mind to take me to the Reality Gate”

“How could I forget”

“Hm, that’s good to hear” Lin replied refreshingly.

She looked up at the sky for a while then pointed at a certain world: “We’re heading there”

Gu Qing Shan looked up.

The world Lin chose was a relatively lively one.

Although this world’s civilization wasn’t too advanced, Gu Qing Shan saw a group of Combatants having dinner at a stall in what appeared to be a main square plaza.

They were probably around the initiated level.

There were countless civilizations within the 900 million World Layers with countless strange and bizarre life forms with an infinite variation of abilities. Although every Profession had its own way to categorize its practitioners, like cultivators do, when compiled together, it was difficult to use a common system to rank an infinite number of entities and powers.

Sometimes, the level of civilization didn’t matter, the most important thing was whether or not there was a powerful Combatant to protect it.

With a powerful Combatant, both the world and civilization would be protected, and the world would prosper and become lively.

“Then let us go” Gu Qing Shan said.

He released his airship, then brought Lin and Shannu into that world.
