Chapter 1025: Technique Inside A Technique
From the beginning of time, for a single existing individual, or rather, for an individual with sentience, ‘what am I?’ has always been an eternal question.
And each activation of [See you once again] would only give the answer to a single question.
There were only 3 minutes left.
So Gu Qing Shan decided to ask that eternal question:
“What exactly are you?”
The vertical pupil on the shield fell blank and appeared to not know where to start.
『 I am…』
It paused, then slowly continued:
『 I was born within the source of Occultism, a location extremely far away from here. Ever since my birth several hundred million years ago…』
Gu Qing Shan scowled.
The answer to ‘what am I?’ is too broad, how would 3 minutes be enough?
If I want to find out more, then I have to…
Gu Qing Shan’s faced the vertical pupil straight on.
Within this parallel dream world created by his technique, he wanted to attempt activating the Iris Technique again!
This would be a technique within a technique!
Lines of bright red text immediately appeared on the War God UI:
[Warning!]
[Your World Technique hasn’t fully manifested itself and is unable to withstand the Parallel Dream technique and Time Recollection technique simultaneously!]
[If you forcefully activate this technique within the technique, your eyes will be inflicted with an injury that would prevent you from using Iris Technique until it thoroughly heals!]
Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through it.
——the [Parallel Dream] technique was a dream that seemed as realistic as a parallel world, where everything and everyone seamlessly connected with reality to the point that it was impossible to tell the difference.
He first created an illusory parallel world, then pulled the monster into that parallel world.
——-as there was only one ring from the God of Life, only Gu Qing Shan would be able to survive.
That was why the monster killed Zhang Ying Hao, Boss, and the others.
However, all of this happened in a dreamscape of a parallel world, while his companions were still alive in reality.
Gu Qing Shan’s plan was to first use [Parallel Dream], then somehow use [See you once again].
And then use his memory reading technique to see through everything regarding the monster.
——[Time Recollection] was the Iris Technique that he had already grasped.
He once used this technique on Lin, saw Lin’s past, and found out about what happened to her when she first entered the Abyss.
In the forest of corpse pillars, he also used [Time Recollection] to observe how the Void Deity devoured the mythical creatures inside the pillars.
Three abilities, one after another.
And then finish up this battle.
But now, right before the last step, the War God UI was reminding him that using [Time Recollection] at this point would cause him injury.
Gu Qing Shan unwillingly sighed before making his decision.
This was the only chance for him to probe the monster’s secret, if he gave it up, there would really be no way to win against it.
Gu Qing Shan’s eyes peered straight into the vertical pupil.
[Time Recollection] activate!
A split second later——–
The fountain, the trees, the corpses on the ground, and the entire garden vanished from Gu Qing Shan’s sight.
The entire world had vanished from his vision.
The only thing his eyes could see right now was the endless empty void, other than that, nothing else.
A split second later.
The emptiness vanished.
It was replaced by darkness.
Followed by a certain voice:
『 Everything is about to be destroyed, weaklings, flee. You cannot join the final battle 』
Right after that, Gu Qing Shan saw a black streak of light.
This black streak of light gave him a very familiar impression.
Yes, this was that spirit.
——-the Occultism spirit that devoured the mermaid in the garden!
The black streak of light went through everything, entered the space vortex, and began its endless escape.
At this point, it had only just gained sentience so it didn’t understand anything.
But the sensation of death and destruction at its back was urging it to flee with everything it had, trying to escape as far as possible from that location.
From that point on, this black streak of light, the Occultism spirit began to drift aimlessly through the space vortex.
Whenever it felt tired, it would search for a floating corpse somewhere and rested inside the shadow of those corpses.
Whenever it felt hungry, it would eat the other monsters that drifted through the void like it was.
Most of the time, before the other party could even notice anything, the Occultism spirit had completely devoured their flesh and soul.
A very long time went by.
During this period, the Occultism spirit followed its instincts and simply ran tirelessly without pause.
——-it was fleeing from its place of birth.
Many battles occurred on the way.
Most of the time, it would be able to completely curb-stomp the other party.
But it would also occasionally lose.
Whenever that occurred, the Occultism spirit would take advantage of its speed and run away with all its strength!
The shocking and soul-stirring battles really helped open Gu Qing Shan’s eyes.
These were all unseen unique forms of combat among void monsters, as well as the most memorable battles in the Occultism spirit’s mind, naturally providing Gu Qing Shan with considerable benefit.
How often could a mortal witness a single battle between Deities?
And Gu Qing Shan was watching all of it.
He carefully took notice of a few battles.
These were all the battles in which the Occultism spirit ran away with everything it had.
Gu Qing Shan silently memorized those battles.
Time quickly went by.
His technique was about to come to an end.
Lines of glowing text appeared in the void of space:
[Utilizing two World Techniques at once had far surpassed the limit of which you are able to endure]
[The world you constructed has undergone a certain level of stress]
[For the next short while, you cannot use your World Techniques again, or your constructed world will collapse]
[Attention please, 30 seconds left until your World Technique concludes]
Reading through that, Gu Qing Shan swiftly moved and melted into the void of space.
There wasn’t much time so he needed to arrange a few things in reality in advance.
Only the Occultism spirit remained.
『…Hm? Where is he? 』
All the Occultism spirit remembered was that right after eating, it went into thinking briefly, then found that the other person had already vanished.
The vertical pupil on the shield quickly scanned through the entire garden.
Perhaps thinking of something, the vertical pupil had the headless body fly up, break through the world barrier, and leave the garden.
It was standing in the middle of the void, observing its surroundings.
Within the endlessly extending chaotic void, there was nothing but darkness and a bit of faint light, as well as the occasional breeze.
This was the space vortex.
That’s right.
The Occultism spirit even managed to observe the faint mirage of various worlds.
It clearly recalled seeing these mirages years ago around this garden.
Everything was as it was supposed to be.
—–then, where did that brat run off to?
…
On the other side.
Reality.
Gu Qing Shan regained his senses.
He found himself being lifted by Zhang Ying Hao and Ye Fei Li, hovering in the empty void.
“What happened?” Gu Qing Shan asked right away.
Boss gave a short explanation: “I returned that garden to the Abyss, so there’s only the void here—– where’s that monster?”
Gu Qing Shan replied: “It’ll show up in about 20 seconds”
Boss held the Star Firefly between his hands and said: “Leave it to me, just watch over my corpse after I’m done”
“Mutually perish? No need” Gu Qing Shan told him.
He turned to Ye Fei Li: “Only a bit more than a dozen seconds left, we’ll be able to get rid of it if the two of us act together”
“How is that possible!?” everyone exclaimed in shock.
Ye Fei Li regained his calm and asked: “What do we need to do?”
Gu Qing Shan quickly explained: “Listen, that monster is possessing both the dead body and dead soul as a combination of the two, using a certain technique to protect itself and ensure that it’s in a state of being unkillable”
“As soon as it appears, you and I will restrain it together. You’ll flay its soul, I’ll kill its body and soul, then I’ll finish it off!”
Ye Fei Li seriously listened, then asked: “Can you confirm where it will appear?”
“In front of me”
“Got it”
They finished their discussion.
Ye Fei Li wielded the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook again.
On the other hand, Gu Qing Shan wielded the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and Devil King Warden Rod in both hands.
“5 seconds left, prepare yourself”
Gu Qing Shan declared.
Ye Fei Li held his breath and entered a combative state of mind.
Gu Qing Shan also turned solemn.
For some reason, at this extremely crucial moment in time, a completely unrelated thought popped up in his mind.
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword, the Forgetting River Soul Flaying Hook, the Devil King Warden Rod…
They are the three Divine Armaments from the Huang Quan path of the Samsara.
Just the two of us, by borrowing the power of these three Divine Armaments, can surpass the difference between mortal and Deity and prepare a plan to eliminate a terrifying entity on the level of the Occultism spirit.
Then…
How strong is the actual Samsara exactly?
