Chapter 1656: The first battle
The monastery.
A certain secluded corner.
Numerous gems piled up to form a small mountain, on top of which a soft sofa rested. Laura was currently half-kneeling on the sofa as she rubbed her sore shoulders.
“We still have to defend for over four hours; I wonder when Gu Qing Shan would return”
She muttered.
On the sofa lay a shiny metal bazooka that gave off a cold gleam.
A low voice could be heard coming from the bazooka:
「 Your Majesty, those monsters have gathered again. This time, there are a few giant ones as well, please prepare for battle 」
“Alright”
Laura stood up on the sofa, propped the bazooka on her shoulder again and aimed outside the wall of fog.
She then lightly pulled the trigger——
Boom!!!
A jet of lightning shot out from the bazooka, flew through the wall of fog, and struck the monster, clearing out a large chunk of land.
The intense impact turned into a storm that blew the surrounding monsters away as well.
A flattering voice echoed from within the pile of gems:
「 Ohoho——- Your Majesty, you’ve cleaned out the house again! No one can stop you at all, how magnificent, how—— I am your devout worshipper! 」
Laura rubbed her shoulder again.
「 That bootlicker is barking again 」a voice scoffed from within the bazooka.
“He certainly is, I really don’t understand why Gu Qing Shan would possess such a door” Laura also commented.
「 My words all originate from the bottom of my heart! 」the Divine Gate refuted.
Both Laura and Canon Brother scoffed.
Suddenly, some noise could be heard from within the pile of gems behind them.
Laura instantly stood up to take a look, only to see that Gu Qing Shan and the girl had both regained their consciousness as they stood back up.
“Wah! You’re back!” Laura called out happily.
“Hm, the process was relatively smooth, so it went faster than expected” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“Did you succeed?” Laura asked.
“Hm” Gu Qing Shan smiled.
Laura tossed the bazooka on her shoulder on the sofa and jumped into Gu Qing Shan’s arms, happily saying: “I knew you would be able to eradicate them all, Gu Qing Shan! No one could stop you; it was regrettable that I couldn’t be there to witness your awesome figure!”
Canon Brother: 「 … 」
The Divine Gate: 「 … 」
“The real battle had only just begun” Gu Qing Shan replied.
The girl walked in front of the wall of fog and pushed it open to take a look outside.
More monsters were gathering towards them.
The girl turned around and told Gu Qing Shan: 『 Those attacks earlier were only a temporary form of Realm Force. The truly powerful enemies all know this, they’re silently observing the situation without any intention to fight directly——- this is a chance for you to get accustomed to your new power 』
『 Please help our world triumph against this evil 』she implored him.
Gu Qing Shan nodded, then suddenly looked around himself.
——something seemed to have appeared around me.
Lines of glowing text suddenly appeared on the War God UI:
[A Phase Realm is currently overlapping with the main world]
[Overlap duration: seven seconds]
[As you hold the power of ‘Phase Sight’, you are able to observe entities within the Phase Realm and sense their actions]
[Starting from this battle, the War God UI shall begin to record information of Phase Realms]
At the very next moment——
Humanoid figures made up of nothing but light appeared one after another.
They swiftly appeared around Gu Qing Shan, taking up every bit of space there was.
“Hurry, we only have seven seconds!” a woman wearing ceremonial clothing called out.
The others all began to chant their incantations and cast their spells.
One after another, flashes of light appeared around Gu Qing Shan’s body.
Faint and blurry lights as small as beads appeared all around his body, which made him appear like some sort of mysterious deity.
The woman made of light spoke up again:
“Let’s go!”
“He is the final hope for this entire world, the only thing we can do is hope that he will be able to triumph against evil!”
Everyone stared closely at Gu Qing Shan with hope in their eyes.
“You have to win”
A little girl made of light clenched her tiny fists tightly and softly muttered to Gu Qing Shan.
Hoh——-
All the people made of light disappeared without a trace.
Seven seconds were over.
The overlap of the Phase Realm and the main world had ended.
——-it was as if that was only an illusion, and those people never existed in the first place.
However, the War God UI had recorded several lines of notifications:
[You’ve received the phase blessing: Ferocity]
[You’ve received the heroic prayers: Anti-evil]
[You’ve received the passive reinforcement: Sharp Weapons]
[You’ve received elemental affinity; your coordination with regards to elemental abilities have been improved by three steps. When attacked by the elements, they will not harm your body if possible]
[You’ve received soul protection, your soul’s tenacity has been improved, your soul will not be easily damaged]
[Furthermore, Fate Ability: ‘Trans-Phase Protection’ has taken effect]
[Trans-Phase Protection: 35 dead heroic spirits have connected their Fates to you, they will share the damage you receive while both you and your enemy would not notice anything]
[——-Aid from a Phase Realm]
[While you fight against evil, all of those who are dead shall stand by you]
Gu Qing Shan silently skimmed through.
Suddenly, a small hand grabbed his hand.
When he looked down, he saw that it was Laura.
She didn’t say anything and only looked at him with a bit of concern in her eyes.
Gu Qing Shan lightly hugged her and said: “I’m fine”
Laura slightly nodded.
Gu Qing Shan swiftly headed into the wall of fog and spoke to the girl as he walked past her: “Don’t worry, everyone will be fine from now on”
His body flashed——
He flew out from the wall of fog and landed on the road full of rotten dark blood.
Countless monsters stood before him.
A monster dressed in sharp spike armor that looked like a liger tried charging forward.
「 BLOOD! FRESH LIVING BLOOD! 」
It howled and leapt up high, opening its bloody jaws widely to bite at Gu Qing Shan’s neck.
A cold gleam flashed.
The monster was flung away by the slash and rolled on the ground.
It shook its head back and forth, then stood back up.
「 You dare face us with such insignificant power? Your blood and flesh will be mine to devour 」
The monster stared closely at Gu Qing Shan and spoke in a mocking tone.
More of the monsters behind it also saw this happen and leapt into action.
——-their enemy was a mortal who couldn’t wield Realm Force.
Which meant he was already as good as dead.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression didn’t change at all and simply looked at the Earth sword in his hand.
A faint bit of light drifted around his sword.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[Blood Sea Realm Force: Realm Spirit Descent has been activated]
[During combat, whenever you attack your enemies a certain number of times, you will be able to summon a Blood Sea Realm Spirit of varying levels of strength to eradicate the enemies in front of you]
[Current number of hits: 1]
[When you strike an enemy 3 times, the first Blood Sea Realm Spirit will descend]
[When you strike an enemy 27 times, the second Blood Sea Realm Spirit will answer your summon and appear]
[When you strike an enemy 133 times, the third Blood Sea Realm Spirit will manifest]
[…]
Gu Qing Shan clenched the twin swords Heaven and Earth tightly, took a deep breath, then turned into a long black thread that cut straight into the horde of monsters.
The gleams of his sword illuminated the night sky.
In an instant, 3 attacks had hit.
The illusion of a blood-colored giant appeared around Gu Qing Shan’s body.
「 Insects… 」
The giant scoffed.
His hands clasped together and violently struck the ground.
The entire world seemed to tremble!
Dozens of monsters were smashed to a pulp with this attack.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression remained the same as the two swords in his hand flew into the nearby horde of monsters like two flashes of chaotic light.
He has reached 27 attacks!
—–without waiting for the giant’s illusory figure to disappear, another illusory figure appeared.
This was a large leech made of nothing but liquid blood.
「 Your blood belongs to me! 」
The leech roared and leapt into the horde of monsters.
Like a tidal wave, the liquid blood enveloped all the monsters.
Wherever the leech washed through, everything was turned into liquid blood that swiftly evaporated into visible smoke as they fell to the ground.
Finally, everything disappeared into the wind.
The leech also faded into the void of space.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and looked around.
The monsters in the distance had already stopped.
They no longer dared to arbitrarily approach him, their expression became that of concern and wariness.
Gu Qing Shan shook his head and closed his eyes, silently sensing the battle just now.
A few moments later.
A dark river appeared from the void of space behind him, followed by a river filled with radiance.
They flowed towards each other and eventually manifested as the crimson Blood Sea.
The vision of the Blood Sea persisted for a while, illuminating the entire night sky without disappearing.
Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes and muttered: “I. Am a world”
