Gu Qing Shan walked up to the second Fiend King.

He crouched down, looked at him and said: “Tell me how you’re going to return”

The Fiend King smirked: 『 I can bring you back with me 』

“No need” Gu Qing Shan looked at the rest of the evil creatures: “I still haven’t decided which one of you I’ll visit”

As the Fiend King saw him raising his sword, he hurriedly replied: 『 In total darkness, use your fingers as a source of light and your voice as a guide, you need to say a total of 39 incantation mantras 』

He then recited a long series of incantations.

Gu Qing Shan carefully listened and memorized it.

As the Fiend King finished reciting, he slowly disappeared in front of Gu Qing Shan.

He had returned.

Gu Qing Shan came for the next Devil King.

That Devil King’s eyes turned a bit before speaking: 「 Recite the following incantation 」

Gu Qing Shan immediately drew his sword and heavily slashed the Devil King.

Blood was spilt.

The Devil King was cut in half.

He looked at Gu Qing Shan in disbelief and mustered the last of his strength to speak: 「 Why… did you…? 」

Gu Qing Shan casually answered: “Devil King of the Fallen Prison, whenever you turn your eyes, you must be thinking of a way to trick people, you think I don’t know that?”

The Devil King was speechless and slowly lost his life.

The other Fiend and Devil Kings stayed absolutely silent.

After a while, one of the Devil Kings muttered: 「 That’s not possible, how does he understand Fallen Devils so well? 」

Gu Qing Shan headed for the next Fiend King.

He looked at the Fiend King without saying a word.

The Fiend King hurriedly: 『 Gather Wind and Lightning at the center of your mouth and chant these 18 incantations 』

He recited a series of incantations and slowly disappeared from Gu Qing Shan’s eyes.

Gu Qing Shan nodded and headed for the next Devil King.

The Devil King looked at him and spoke in a low voice: 「 I have a secret tool that will take you to any world as long as you have it 」

Gu Qing Shan instantly sliced off his head.

『 Why!? 』

Another Fiend King couldn’t help but shout.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “This bastard has always been lying. Everyone knows his secret tool will take you into the 1950th floor of the Permafrost Demonic Tomb. That place is filled with nothing but Deep Permafrost so tough that not even Divinities can easily escape”

The evil creatures looked at him again and fell silent.

The looks in their eyes have also changed.

This isn’t just an insane person.

What kind of monster is this, he’s too terrifying.

The rest of the evil creatures didn’t try any other tricks.

Right now they just wanted to go home.

Time slowly passed.

Until finally, all the Fiend Kings and Devil Kings left, leaving the last Fiend King behind.

This was a jet-black Fiend King who had a decently handsome face.

He looked a lot like a human, except for the long, sharp tail at the end of his back.

He honestly and quickly told him the incantation and how to use it.

Gu Qing Shan silently memorized it and began to speak: “Xie Qi Fiend King, now that there aren’t any other evil creatures here, you don’t need to be afraid of them laughing at you for being cowardly anymore”

『 What do you mean? 』the Xie Qi Fiend King forced out a smile.

Gu Qing Shan said: “I have a question that I want to ask you, you have to answer me honestly, or I will kill you”

The Xie Qi Fiend King was shocked and respectfully said: 『 Please go ahead 』

Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and solemnly asked: “Have the Desolate monsters and Divinities ever tried to invade the Primordial Wraith Realm?”

The last one remaining was the weakest and the most cowardly Fiend King.

As well as the key to breaking the current situation.

This was the reason why Gu Qing Shan had purposefully beat up and suppressed all the evil creatures, leaving him until the very end.

Xie Qi Fiend King replied: 『 They have 』

Gu Qing Shan asked: “What’s the result?”

The Fiend King answered: 『 Evil creatures can’t be eaten. Eating us will only cause both the Desolate monsters and the Divinities to feel extremely uncomfortable without any visible benefits. And the Primordial Wraith Realm was filled with miasma that they can’t get used to. In order to prevent the Wraith Realm from getting stronger, they simply broke the Primordial Wraith Realm into several thousand fragments before leaving 』

Gu Qing Shan went silently briefly.

Who would’ve thought the Primordial Wraith Realm would end up like that.

“Xie Qi Fiend King, as you’ve answered a very crucial question for me, I will grant you a certain secret” he said.

The Fiend King appeared to be listening

Gu Qing Shan began to speak: “Actually, your wife has been having an affair behind your back with the Cruel Bone Devil King. And since you live your life so cluelessly, not even managing your own Fiend realm or try to get any stronger, everyone now thinks of you as a useless vagabond”

“Furthermore, the reason why you’re still alive is because the Cruel Bone Devil King thinks that this is interesting. He enjoys the feeling of cuckolding you, naturally, he also thinks that leaving your woman and your territory like it currently is to be best, so he doesn’t kill you or take over your Fiend realm, even though it has, in fact, already belonged to the Cruel Bone Devil King”

The Xie Qi Fiend King was stunned.

He shivered for a while.

Gu Qing Shan sighed: “Truthfully, I didn’t really want to care about the matter between you and them, because there’s always going to be some discord wherever there are fiends and devils. I’m not that much of a busybody”

Gu Qing Shan lightly swung his sword.

“But I hope that you won’t be completely clueless before you die”

He pulled his sword back.

Gu Qing Shan let go and let the sword hide itself within the void of space.

On the deck of the airship, the Xie Qi Fiend King had already been cut into tiny pieces.

There were now no longer any evil creatures on the airship.

Silence.

The ocean wind continued to blow.

Gu Qing Shan stood spaced out next to the Xie Qi Fiend King for a long while.

Finally, an autumn water blue steel sword appeared from the void of space and transformed into a girl with an aloof, cold expression.

Shannu.

She couldn’t hold herself back anymore.

“Gongzi, are you ok?” Shannu asked out of concern.

“I’m fine” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Why do I get the feeling that you’re a bit strange?”

“…Because I’ve been thinking about the same thing over and over. And because of how important it is, I absolutely cannot make any mistakes at all, so I couldn’t help but feel a bit anxious”

“Is it related to the Heaven sword?”

“Yes”

Shannu thought for a bit and asked: “Did gongzi capture these evil creatures only to learn about the incantations to travel to their fiend and devil realms?”

“No”

Gu Qing Shan slowly replied: “I don’t know if you notice or not, through their incantations and how they must be performed, I found out that the evil creatures know how to use the 5 mutated Elements of Wind, Lightning, Light, Dark, Sound”

“While the Age of Old cultivators and even the Desolate monsters didn’t know how to fight against the 5 mutated Elements at all”

“Which means… there is a very good reason why the evil creatures managed to survive after all this time”

He picked up a piece of the Xie Qi Fiend King’s flesh.

Shannu looked at what he was doing and seemed to understand.

“Gongzi, you want to…”

While she was talking, Gu Qing Shan had already turned into the Xie Qi Fiend King’s appearance.

He threw the piece of flesh away, took out the jade disk that would lead him into the next phantom image and drew several hand seals on it, sealed it away, and put it inside a jade box.

Shannu now didn’t understand.

Seeing the look on her face, Gu Qing Shan explained: “Before I killed the Fiend King, I didn’t space out, I was actually studying the method to control the jade disk that was recorded on the airship”

“And part of that was how to seal it”

Shannu asked: “Why did gongzi want to seal the jade disk?”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “From how the jade disk was made, there must be quite a few steps to go through, and after a long time of contemplation, I discovered that everything would fail if even one of these steps were to go awry”

“Gongzi doesn’t trust the cultivators from the Age of Old?”

“This isn’t a problem of trust. We have to discard all sentiments and emotions to judge the situation from the most subjective point of view”

“Then what was gongzi’s judgement?”

“During the countless years of the Age of Old, humanity was thoroughly suppressed, which meant that the Desolate monsters and Divinities actually held the absolute advantage. These circumstances themselves proved that the Desolate monsters and Divinities have always had a way to win against humanity”

Shannu nodded her head as she listened: “That’s why gongzi believes that they have the means to deal with the final preparations of the cultivators?”

“I can’t disregard that possibility” Gu Qing Shan replied, “it’s not that I don’t trust Master and the others, but rather that if even one of them makes any mistakes, this entire thing will go tumbling down”

Shannu was flustered and wondered: “If even the final preparations couldn’t win against them, wouldn’t that mean this trip of ours is meaningless?”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Of course not, in truth, besides the cultivators, there was someone else who could fight against the Divinities and Desolate monsters”

“Someone else? Who?” Shannu asked in surprise.

“That would naturally be me” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Shannu was stunned.

Gu Qing Shan slowly explained: “I am a sword cultivator, as long as my hand holds a sword, I won’t need my ancestors to sacrifice themselves to pave me a path”

He looked up at the dark sky and muttered: “I don’t want to keep running and avoiding my enemies like a dog without a master, and I don’t intend to run into some sort of inescapable trap that the Divinities set up years ago. So I need… power”

“I need more power to change everything!”

Gu Qing Shan clasped his hands together, infused his Lightning into the gentle breeze, and performed the incantation to travel to the chosen Fiend Realm.

“Xie Qi Realm, the lost abyssal sanctuary of all evil creatures, open your gates for me!”

He raised his voices and chanted.

Oom.

An invisible gate appeared from the void of space.

“We’re going”

“Yes, gongzi”
