Chapter 1828: Chao Yin ‘s awakening

Translator: La009

‘WHAT!?”

Gu Qing Shan exclaimed.

Within the vision, the giant corpse replied in a low voice: “I’m asking you frankly, are you willing to rescue me or not?”

“Of course, how should I do that?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The giant corpse didn’t speak.

But several pieces of black scale armor emerged from the mass of light that manifested the vision, rapidly reassembling into a suit of mysterious but dignified armor.

“Every object you’ve come into contact with that is related to me, including this spell that I’ve cast on the Chao Yin sword and these black scales, all originated from the Mystery SkillO: Du E”

“What is ‘Du E’O?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The giant corpse then began to explain: “In reality, as you broke open the Reality Gate and took its living beings with you away from this void, I was still restrained on the bronze pillar and thus unable to follow you. At that point, my only solution was to invoke ‘Du E’——”

“This is a Mystery technique that was comprised from the three Laws of Fate, Causality, and Space-Time”

“I invoked a hypothesis that one day in the future, you would be able to return to this moment and rescue me once again”

“If Fate, Causality, and Space-Time all recognized this hypothesis, I would be rescued right away and flee the collapsing void together with you”

“You and I are currently within the same Space-Time, with you being inside the Samsara Clash for Supremacy while I’m busy with certain other crucial matters”

“All of this hinges on the prerequisite that you would actually go back to the past and rescue me”

Feeling a headache trying to wrap his head around the concept, Gu Qing Shan finally spoke again after a while: “You weren’t rescued yet, but by invoking this technique, you were treated as ‘have been rescued’, thus traveling with me into this new Boundless Void- the most pivotal point of this technique is that I would have to actually go back to rescue you at some point in the future”

“That’s right, this is the only opportunity you have, if you want to head back, put that Technique Armor on and go back to this time period to rescue me, then everything that followed would become ‘established’; if you don’t go, I will vanish from your Space-Time and die during the destruction of the Reality

Gate’s worlds”

“Got it!” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He then reached his hand out to lightly tap the suit of armor.

The entire suit of armor instantly scattered into 10 separate components before attaching themselves on to his body.

A few lines of bloody red text appeared:

[You’ve equipped the Void Silence Divine Garb]

[Other than Causality, your body is unaffected by all other Laws of Reality]

[ —- -This is a unique type of armor designed for traveling across Space-Time]

Gu Qing Shan’s body flashed as it began to rush rapidly towards the vision that contained the giant corpse.

After a few moments, supernatural phenomena began to manifest one by one.

The River of Time.

The Boundless Void.

The Creator Entity, Sequence Envoys, as well as terrifying unknown monsters, all began to flicker in and out of the void.

None of these entities noticed Gu Qing Shan at all.

He had silently bypassed numerous layers of obstacles to directly enter the barren world.

– -the giant corpse’s world.

The world was now broken and riddled with holes, with all the black skeletons on the ground nowhere to be seen. In fact, if one looked towards the sky, they’d be able to see all sorts of uncanny entities floating outside within the Boundless Void.

None of which Gu Qing Shan had ever seen before.

Occasionally, some of them would try to fly into the barren world in an attempt to attack the giant corpse.

The giant corpse continuously shook his head with a crimson spear attached to it, releasing numerous sharp spikes that repelled the uncanny monsters.

Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan exclaimed in surprise: “How did things become so dire here?”

The giant corpse abruptly turned his head and called out: “Gu Qing Shan, you’ve finally arrived!”

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Which point in time is this exactly?”

The giant corpse replied: “The point in which you transformed into the

Supreme Sequence incarnate and headed towards the Eternal Abyss to fight the Heavenly Emperor’s clone”

“I remember you saying that you’ll follow me if the situation allows it- were you referring to using [Du E]?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“That’s right, take a look here-

The giant corpse used the Crimson Demon Divine Spear to slice the bronze pillar behind him.

The bronze pillar was instantly sliced through, but then returned to normal within the split second following that.

“The Crimson Demon Divine Spear is capable of cutting through everything known to exist so it can temporarily keep me safe, but this pillar was forged from a material unknown to all living beings, which is why I’m unable to escape from it” the giant corpse explained.

At this point, two more uncanny monsters penetrated through the world barrier and began to descend from above.

One of them looked like a giant shadovvy snake, but various colorful spikes protruded from every inch of its body; the other looked like a beetle, but its body was entirely made up of an opaque type of element that Gu Qing Shan was clueless about.

The giant corpse said with a solemn tone: “These two are unable to see you, but were able to sense that I had a chance to escape…”

The giant corpse then shook his head side to side, causing the Crimson Demon Divine Spear attached to it to unleash a series of unseen fluctuations.

In that instant, the giant snake suddenly shifted its body and opened its maw to bite the elemental beetle.

The two uncanny entities then started to attack one another.

The giant corpse exhaled in relief, then said with a tired voice: “We need to seize the time—–

“Gu Qing Shan, the bronze pillar is impossible to destroy, even the nails that are sealing my neck, legs, and arms are indestructible to all living beings, it’s fortunate that I know about the sword you found- – – -”

“Are you referring to the Delimitation Divine Sword?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Is that what it’s called now? Ah right——- it’s doing a very good job at hiding, but only by using it now can you destroy the nail on my left wrist” the giant corpse explained.

“What about the other nails?” Gu Qing Shan drew the Delimitation Divine Sword and asked.

-The others are no good, only the nail on my left wrist will be vulnerable. That nail was forged from a Dreamscape Saintly Void Artifact, and only the Void Sword in your hand possessing the [All Things Perish] ability is capable of destroying Void Artifacts—- together with the Nihility sword technique you possess, the combination of Void and Nihility will be able to destroy any Saintly Void Artifact, allowing you to destroy this nail!” the giant corpse said with a clearly emotional voice.

After countless years, it finally saw a tiny hope of becoming free again.

Nihility sword technique?

Gu Qing Shan was surprised for a second before he recalled the description of the sword technique [Causeless].

– – -Bygone Era sword technique: [Causeless]

[Passive skill]

[A Causality sword technique, a Nihility sword technique]

That’s right, [Causeless] really is a Nihility sword technique.

Gu Qing Shan deeply sighed.

Who could have thought, ever since I met the giant corpse, having been through so much hardship and growing to this degree, then obtaining the Void Sword, I’ve onlyjust been able to destroy the nail that sealed the giant corpse’s left hand.

Perhaps realizing what he was thinking, the giant corpse explained: “That is already an inconceivable feat. Originally, having been pinned to this bronze pillar, no living being would have ever been able to rescue me; but not only did you grasp the Nihility sword technique, you’ve also gained possession of the Void Sword, these are feats with a nearly impossible chance of occurring!”

“Would it be any good just releasing your left hand?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The giant corpse laughed in a low-pitched tone and answered with a whisper: “Once my left hand is released, my power would also be unsealed by 117th. I’d be able to take this barren world with me and travel to the bottom of the Eternal Abyss, joining you in the battle against the Heavenly Emperor’s clone- in truth, it was also being controlled by something else, so with me present, you’d have no need to worry”

Everything around them became silent.

All of a sudden, Gu Qing Shan heard a voice echoing from the endlessly far void:

[I am death, the end of time, the beginning of destruction, the desolation and cessation of all, the manifestation of the ultimate eradication]

– -this is my voice.

Right at this time, I was preparing to fight the Heavenly Emperors clone at the bottom of the Eternal Abyss!

Without delaying any further, Gu Qing Shan flew straight towards the giant corpse’s left hand.

As he took a closer look at the nail, he saw that it was nearly transparent, but still occasionally glimmered with several mystical runes.

Glancing at the giant corpse’s other hand, legs, as well as neck, he saw that each of those nails were completely different.

And he could only destroy this single nail.

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes, then opened with again before tightly grasping the Delimitation Divine Sword and grunting: “CUT- –

The sword manifested hundreds consecutive images of itself that all continuously struck the nail without pause, which produced a resounding chime.

After an instant, an illusory sword image manifested from the void of space.

[Causeless]

The sword immediately plunged into the nail.

Cracks began to appear at a rapid pace until the entire nail was full of them.

“AAAAAAARRGGHH!”

The giant corpse uttered a resounding cry and put all of its strength into struggling— – –

The nail then finally broke off from the bronze pillar, crumbled into dust before it faded away into nothingness.

Complete silence.

All the monsters that surrounded the outside of the world barrier all vanished without a trace.

-in the very instant that one of the giant corpse’s hands got free, all of them ran away for their lives.

A foreign presence started to radiate from the giant corpse’s body.

“Let’s skip the pleasantries, I need to immediately go and help your battle, while you need to return to where you came from” the giant corpse told him.

“Can you accompany the ‘me’ from this time period to enter the world on the other side of the Reality Gate?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Naturally! On the contrary, you are the one who needs to become stronger. At the very least, you need to be able to see ‘yourself’ within the same time period without being erased by the Law of Time” the giant corpse answered.

“That level of strength…”

“That’s right, it’s the minimal prerequisite for you to participate in the events that would follow- I need to go and help ‘you’ during this time period now!” the giant corpse said.

“Alright, send me away” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The giant corpse reached out a single finger and gently pushed Gu Qing Shan

away.

In an instant, Gu Qing Shan vanished from this Space-Time.

Heaven and earth spun around themselves.

At the very next second.

Gu Qing Shan abruptly opened his eyes.

He found himself now standing in Hell once again.

Everything was as normal.

As if nothing had happened at all.

Oong–

With a ringing noise, the Chao Yin sword emerged from the void of space behind him and excitedly flew circles around him.

Gu Qing Shan grasped the sword.

Right away, he sensed the sword’s spirit and will.

At the same time, lines of bloody red text rapidly appeared in the void of space:

[The Chao Yin sword has awoken]

[It is informing you of its post-awakening Thaumaturgies]

[The sword’s description has been updated:] [Ancient sword, Chao Yin]

[He who wields this sword is the king of all seas]

[This sword possess the following Thaumaturgies:]

[Oceans Reign: All water within the myriad realms are your soldiers to command as you wish]

[Blessing of the Forgetting River: He who holds this sword possess a soul that can never be harmed; at the time of death, Deities of Hell will personally arrive to guide them back to Huang Quan]

[Soul of Nine Serenities: Enemies that are killed by your hands will fall under control of the Law of Nine Serenities, by which they will fight for you with the same strength as when they were still alive]
