Chapter 1352: Life Talisman vs power of a Pillar God (1)

The sound of the bell rang intensely.

Princess Maria and Crow appeared above the sky garden.

Very soon, emperor Roland also appeared out of nowhere.

More and more Combatants were also gathering to completely surround the sky garden.

Ten minutes later.

The truth came out.

Years ago, the wraiths had managed to prepare several pawns that were completely clean right inside the Roland royal palace.

Realizing the implications of this, everyone felt shocked to no end.

Crow couldn’t help but ask: “Where’s Rhode? Where exactly had he been sent to?”

Emperor Roland pondered, then replied: “Not the Chasm. Rhode isn’t old enough, so he wouldn’t have been able to enter”

The old farmer disappeared, then quickly reappeared: “I’ve memorized Rhode’s life signatures from before, so I went to take a look, but he wasn’t present in the wraith’s territory”

The red-haired woman continued: “Recently, our world seemed to have been sealed off by the power of the Deities, completely unable to connect to other worlds. The wraiths would not be able to achieve this either”

Crow immediately said: “If that’s the case, he should still be in our world!”

“But very strangely—– I can’t sense him” princess Maria said as she slowly closed her eyes.

The old farmer confirmed this: “That is the truth, his life signature doesn’t exist in our current world, otherwise, I would definitely be able to find him”

Everyone exchanged glances.

He wasn’t transported somewhere else, nor could he enter the Chasm world, then where exactly did Rhode disappear to?

Emperor Roland became more serious and said: “If Maria couldn’t sense him, then he definitely isn’t here, that leaves us with a single possibility…”

Everyone’s expressions became solemn.

“What is that single possibility?” Crow asked.

The red-haired woman clicked her tongue, then waved her hand over the void of space and muttered: “By the might of the goddess, display all techniques of the past”

Clusters of colorful light gathered and converged, circling around her hand.

The red-haired woman stared closely at these clusters of light, then explained to the rest: “Earlier, the techniques that had appeared in this place were: Red Dragon Origin Hex, Spatial Erosion, Forceful Transmission, Concealed Layer Leap… let me check the coordinates… that’s right, it’s that place”

Princess Maria sighed, explaining to Crow: “We created the Chasm in order to forcefully isolate the infected zones outside of our world, but during that process, we found that the infected zones were currently fighting against another layered world——- the world of extinct monsters”

“You mean, Rhode had been transported to that world of monsters?” Crow asked in a heavy tone.

“Indeed, those monsters were both powerful and cautious, only using their thoughts to contact us. Both sides agreed to not invade one another, and that if anyone arbitrarily entered the other’s realm, they would be eliminated without question” emperor Roland replied.

Crow drew her sword and said: “Please take me there, I want to save Rhode”

“It’s useless, child”

The red-hair woman looked at Crow and spoke with pity: “There was one other technique I didn’t tell you about just now”

In front of everyone, the red-haired woman lightly moved her finger, taking away all the clusters of light, leaving a single bright red cluster behind.

“This was the technique I did not mention earlier——- an extremely difficult technique to dispel, it requires the caster to sacrifice their life in order to activate. Under normal combat circumstances, it couldn’t possibly be performed, but if it was ever truly managed to cast, even we would find it difficult to stop”

“Life Talisman: Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit”

“The person afflicted by this technique would enter an unconscious state where they would only act on their instincts, but all of their actions would become aggressive in nature. Furthermore, this state would continue for 12 hours in total”

The red-haired woman didn’t continue.

But everyone understood her words.

—–arbitrarily infiltrate the monster’s territory and could only act aggressively, anyone could guess the outcome of such a person.

“Wraiths…”

Crow clenched the rapier in her hand tightly.

…

The extinct monster world.

This was a bright red world from the sky to the ground, where numerous monsters that didn’t exist anywhere else were locked in insane combat.

They were desperately beating, clawing, biting, utilizing magic, some didn’t even care about their survival.

—–from the looks of it, the spread of the plague had begun.

Right at this moment.

A rip opened up in the void of space and spat out a small black dot.

Gu Qing Shan.

He had lost his consciousness, unable to do anything but fall down following the flow of the wind towards the middle of the numerous monsters.

In his Thought Sea, his swords were arguing with one another.

“Gongzi can’t move right now, I need to go out to save him!” Shannu declared resolutely.

「 Don’t move 」the Earth sword shouted.

“Why not? It’s so dangerous outside!” Shannu shouted back.

「 You can’t act impulsively, Gu Qing Shan is currently under the effects of [True Luck], meaning he’s being taken care of by fate. As we are his swords, we are also affected by this power——- which is exactly why you can’t go out right now 」the Earth sword explained.

“Why would that mean that I can’t go out?” Shannu didn’t understand.

「 Without Gu Qing Shan to control us, we’re very limited in what we can do on our own. Even if you have [Living’s Wisdom], can you guarantee that you’ll be able to deal with all of those terrifying monsters outside? 」

「 That’s why, the only thing we can rely on right now is [True Luck]—— this is both a technique and power that we don’t understand, I’m afraid that it might be affected by your [Law Breaker] property. When that happens, Gu Qing Shan would truly be in trouble 」the Earth sword replied.

“Then what do we do now?” Shannu worriedly asked.

The Earth sword answered firmly: 「 Since Chao Yin and I are here, you shouldn’t act just yet, let’s just wait—— let Gu Qing Shan’s power of the Pillar God counteract that Life Talisman on its own 」

Shannu turned to the other two swords.

Chao Yin sword let out a small vibration, expressing agreement.

The Heaven sword gave off a faint snoring sound.

Shannu sighed.

The Earth sword is right, [True Luck] is a manifestation of a Pillar God’s power, an extremely powerful technique.

I have to be careful not to affect it.

I can only restrain myself for now.

Gu Qing Shan continued to fall.

Despite the numerous fighting monsters, he luckily fell through the small gaps between each combat, occasionally being pushed or pulled by the residual shockwaves, which slowed his descent like a leaf in the wind.

——-but he was completely oblivious about it.

Thud!

A very light crashing noise.

Despite falling from such height, he was completely intact.

The wind blew against his body, almost sweeping him away.

The ground started moving rapidly moving forward.

——–no, that wasn’t the ground, but a giant beetle whose body was several hundred miles long.

The beetle flapped its wings at an extreme frequency, trying its best to fly above the clouds.

It continued to fly at full speed until it left the area filled with screams and screeches of combat behind.

Just as the beetle relaxed itself, a long and thin spike suddenly appeared on its back, piercing through its carapace and into its body.

Srri srrii sriiiii———

The beetle screeched in despair, trying to struggle.

Coincidentally, the spike had pierced through near Gu Qing Shan’s position.

The tremble woke Gu Qing Shan up.

“So… noisy…”

He whispered, still unconscious.

A second later, he began staggering to stand up, trying to grab something.

The Earth sword appeared from the void of space for Gu Qing Shan to grab.

“Hm…”

Gu Qing Shan raised his sword and swung with all his strength towards the spike!

—-[Earth’s Choice]!

The Soul Points value on the War God UI jumped.

A blinding arc of sword phantom instantly manifested.

The thin spike was struck head-on, then quickly vanished.

Like it had just been spared, the giant beetle immediately stabilized itself and continued to fly forward.

After unleashing one strike, he shook his head, then collapsed on top of the carapace.

He rolled over, opened his eyes, and silently stared at the sky.

A voice suddenly resounded by his ear: “Thank you for saving me, who are you?”

Gu Qing Shan was still acting on instincts so he belligerently replied: “The fuck you questioning me for? You want to die?”

The voice paused a bit.

A few moments later, the voice spoke up again with a very serious tone: “You’re right, this isn’t the time to be asking questions, we need to quickly run for our lives!”

The giant beetle sped up, flying like a streak of light across the sky, and left the battlefield.

Several powerful attacks exploded consecutively behind it but failed to connect because it suddenly sped up.

Gu Qing Shan was oblivious to all of this.

He laid flat on top of the carapace, slowly closing his eyes again.

—–he had fallen unconscious again.
