Chapter 1409: Kill her!
The cold gleam flashed and disappeared in an instant.
This sword didn’t contain overwhelming sword qi or extreme power, quite the opposite, it seemed extremely normal but it was fast.
——-extremely fast!
While Xue Nu still had a look of confusion, his head was already sent flying.Gu Qing Shan instantly formed a hand seal.
He caught the headless body, used a wind isolation hand seal to stop the blood from spilling out, then immediately caught the head, placing it on the ground.
Everything occurred in a single moment, it happened so fast that no one outside managed to sense it.
The airship continued to head forward.
Gu Qing Shan seized his time, put on his white Samsara Wicked Mask and activated [Jade Cultivation]!
In an instant, an indiscernible fluctuation enveloped the crimson mask.
—— Xue Nu’s mask!“I want this”
Gu Qing Shan communicated with the Samsara Wicked Mask through his thoughts.
Lines of glowing text swiftly appeared in the void of space:
[Ghost Killer Mask]
[This mask contains the following Guise Hex technique: Killing Rend]
[This hex requires activation with a hand seal, will rip open flesh on contact, turns into striking force against weapons]
[If ‘Deep Shadow’ is used, the Guise Hex can be improved by one stage, do you want to use it?]
Gu Qing Shan answered right away: “Use it”
All the glowing text disappeared as new lines of notification appeared in the void of space:
[You’ve activated ‘Deep Shadow’]
[Ghost Killer Mask had been upgraded]
[This mask contains the Guise Hex technique: Spatial Rend]
[This hex does not require activation with a hand seal, activated through speech, will rip open flesh on contact, sends weapons flying when struck]
[Spatial Rend had been manifested into a Guise Hex and stored inside your Samsara Wicked Mask]
Gu Qing Shan’s pure-white mask swiftly turned into crimson red, several long black lines suddenly manifested on top of the mask, depicting an angry expression.
———-just like Xue Nu’s mask!
“Shannu” Gu Qing Shan sent his voice.
“Gongzi, I’m here” Shannu appeared out of thin air.
Gu Qing Shan took out Chen Fifth’s original mask and gave it to her: “This is an urgent situation, turn into Chen Fifth and stay here”
“Yes”
Shannu activated [Mystery of All Beings Equal], slowly transformed into Chen Fifth’s appearance and put on the mask.
Gu Qing Shan put his hand on Xue Nu’s body, also activating [Mystery of All Beings Equal] to turn into Xue Nu.
He cleared his throat, then spoke loudly using Xue Nu’s voice and tone: “Brother Chen, stay here and wait for me, I’m going to take a look at the situation”
While saying so, he put Xue Nu’s head and body into his Inventory Bag.
Shannu also replied loudly: “I understand, big brother Xue, please be careful:
Gu Qing Shan nodded towards Shannu, held the Samsara Wicked Mask in his hand, then turned around and walked to the deck of the ship.
The subordinates on the deck of the ship had already heard his voice, so they all bowed to greet him:
“Lord Xue”
Gu Qing Shan clasped his hands behind his back and asked: “Hm, how is the battle situation?”
One of them reported: “The Abyssal creature was indeed impressive; it is currently fleeing towards the Southwest direction and has nearly broken through our encirclement. More of our experts are heading there”
Gu Qing Shan looked into the distance.
An immense presence gave off violent fluctuations as it moved away.
Around that presence, the wraiths had formed large formations to create an encirclement, hurriedly pursuing it.
The sound of explosion and desperate screams were mixed with one another erupting all over on the ground below.
——–from the looks of it, Lin’s actions have been completely exposed.
She’s trying to break through the encirclement.
Unfortunately…
Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to carefully observe the situation and found his heart sinking.
——-the forces of the Wraith realm are continuously gathering here, they will continue to hound her like a pack of hungry wolves, forcing her to fight until she finally loses her strength.
While Gu Qing Shan’s mind was in chaos, a sudden thought crossed his mind.
Strange…
Why isn’t she using her Fate ability?
With [Existence], she should be able to escape the battle immediately.
Perhaps, there’s an activation condition for [Existence]?
Gu Qing Shan went silent for a short moment.
He put on his mask and ordered: “I’m heading out to check the situation, the bunch of you join them as moral support”
One of the subordinates hesitantly asked: “Sir, won’t you take a few of us to protect you?”
Gu Qing Shan coldly replied: “You think you can?”
That subordinate lowered his head without saying a word.
Gu Qing Shan ordered: “All of you are weak, there is no need for any of you to join the battle——- just stand around the encirclement and cheer, make sure everyone knows that our estate didn’t raise a bunch of cripples”
After saying so, he leapt up and flew ahead, disappearing without a trace.
Another subordinate praised: “Lord Xue had gotten stronger again, us following him would only burden him. It’s best that we follow his orders and do our jobs”
The other subordinate nodded in agreement.
One of them entered into the cabin of the ship and told ‘Chen Fifth’: “Stay put on the ship and don’t run anywhere, we’re going to join the fray on sir’s order”
“Ah, yes” Shannu hurriedly replied.
That subordinate nodded, left the room, then flew away with the rest of the subordinates towards the direction of the battle.
Only Shannu remained on the airship, silently waiting.
…
Gu Qing Shan flew above the clouds, quickly heading towards the direction of the battle.
Suddenly, he discovered several other wraith cultivators were flying as fast as they could through the clouds.
As a certain thought crossed his mind, Gu Qing Shan gave chase.
He loudly called out: “Everyone please wait, I am Xue Nu from Wraith Lord Fate Obstruction’s estate!”
Hearing him declare such a considerable background, the wraiths were shocked.
——-while he was only a servant, he was still a servant from the Wraith Lord’s estate, who dares ignore him?
They stopped, waited for Xue Nu to catch up to them before clasping their fists and greeting him: “Greeting, sir Xue”
Gu Qing Shan also clasped his fist and replied: “Spatial Rend”
The hex was activated through speech.
Wind became blurred as they passed through those wraiths’ bodies.
Their bodies were instantly cut apart into numerous pieces, falling to the ground in a mass of blood.
Gu Qing Shan formed a hand seal.
Instantly, all the flesh and blood were collected.
From the moment he acted up to when he cleaned up the mess, it only took enough time to clasp their hands, and since there wasn’t anyone else around, everything happened without a single soul noticing it.
Several masks were also retrieved by Gu Qing Shan.
Three of them had been destroyed by Spatial Rend, only two of them could still be used.
Each of these masks contained a Guise Hex of considerable power; if these five people had attacked all at once, even a Wraith Might would need to be cautious.
Unfortunately, they ran into Gu Qing Shan.
——–Gu Qing Shan didn’t like to give others a chance to act.
Taking a look at these masks, Gu Qing Shan casually chose one of the intact masks, then used [Jade Cultivation Deep Shadow] to turn his mask into the same thing.
He picked out some of the flesh and blood from before, used [Mystery of All Beings Equal], and fully took on their appearance.
“This time, no one will recognize me” Gu Qing Shan lightly muttered.
He checked the direction of the battle.
The wraiths had gathered more and more, from the ground all the way to the sky like a mountain of people, just to surround a single place.
Lin still couldn’t escape from the encirclement!
The intense energy fluctuations of the battle crackled like exploding thunder.
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath before he unleashed all of his Huang Quan Origin power.
Thanks to the Samsara Wicked Mask, his Huang Quan Origin power instantly manifested as Wraith Origin power, turning from faint yellow to dark black.
From afar, he looked almost like a demon king who had immersed himself in the shadows!
Gu Qing Shan activated [Ground Shrink], his body flashing consecutively and traversed the thousand-mile distance and appeared on the outside of the encirclement.
Quite a few wraiths turned around, talking about themselves: “This presence… a Wraith Might had arrived”
“Who is he?”
“Which Wraith Might is this?”
“No, this presence is even more overwhelming compared to a Wraith Might… he must be a commander under the Wraith Lords”
While he was still facing his Sumeru Lord realm Tribulation, Gu Qing Shan was already able to fend off the Wraith Might Cang Wu Zhang.
Currently, he had already passed his Star River Saint Tribulation, having become the Chosen Saint of Huang Quan, his spirit energy fully converted into Huang Quan Origin power, so both his cultivation realm and strength had far surpassed any Wraith Might.
With his current strength, he could even fight against a Wraith Lord!
As Gu Qing Shan raised his presence to the very limit, he abruptly shouted: “Make way for this great one!”
Like a comet, he rushed towards the encirclement, the terrifying presence of Wraith Origin power exuded from his body, causing the wraiths to all open their eyes wide.
——–this is a top-level Combatant who would be of pivotal importance to the battle!
With that in mind, the wraiths swiftly made way for him.
Gu Qing Shan went past hundreds of wraiths to enter the encirclement, only to see a lanky tall woman busily fending off numerous wraiths.
Lin.
As expected, it was Lin!
While he was busy fighting off the wraiths, she still noticed Gu Qing Shan’s appearance.
——-the strongest wraith so far had arrived!
Lin’s presence rose to a limit, speaking in a cold tone: “You’re courting death”
Gu Qing Shan laughed: “You think you can still escape? All of you, take distance, I’m going to finish her off!”
While laughing, he sent his voice to Lin: “It’s me”
Lin was a bit shaken, then cautiously sent her voice back: “Who are you?”
“Three coins, twin swords Heaven and Earth” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“Not enough, too many people know about these matters, that isn’t enough to prove who you are!” Lin swiftly replied.
Her killing intent abruptly rose.
It would be a good thing if this was the real person, but if he isn’t and still manages to know so much, he’s definitely a serious adversary!
Gu Qing Shan could sense her sharp killing intent.
I can’t stop now; I need to take this chance while all the wraiths haven’t reacted yet to——-
With numerous thoughts circling through his mind, Gu Qing Shan ultimately sent his voice helplessly: “Lin, at the Inheritance Site of the Death God, you kissed me”
All of his Origin power turned into sharp sword qi and shot towards Lin like a sword that could cut through everything.
The wraiths who had her surrounded swiftly took distance to give him space.
Gu Qing Shan arrived in an instant!
He clenched his fist and violently swung towards Lin.
At this point, Lin’s killing intent had receded, she opened her fist to form a palm and took half a step back.
———–the three coins and the twin swords Heaven and Earth were matters that both of them had gone through together.
But the most important factor was the kiss.
Other than Anna, there wasn’t anybody else at the scene.
This was more than enough to prove his identity.
“Damn you!”
Feeling her face a bit hot, Lin shouted out loud with unclear emotions.
She raised her hand and lightly caught Gu Qing Shan’s fist.
White fog abruptly manifested!
Layers upon layers of white fog swirled like a storm, instantly enveloping Lin.
At the very next instant, the two of them disappeared without a trace.
The wraiths who were standing around waiting to see Gu Qing Shan’s attack all froze on the spot.
The air became silent.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
“Where are they? Where did they go?” someone shouted.
