Chapter 1714 – Merit
Translator: La0o9
A streak of light rapidly dashed through the sky.
When it stopped, the silhouette was discerned to be a shirtless man that was carrying another man.
——the two members of the [Pure Love Gang]
“If you hang onto my waist like that, I can’t shoot my arrows!”
Gu Qing Shan raised his bow and loudly called out.
“Then what now!?” Ye Fei Li shouted in return.
The two of them had already circled several times in the air but still couldn’t find an appropriate opportunity to attack.
Gu Qing Shan thought briefly and said: “Let’s change positions!”
“Alright, I’m changing!”
Ye Fei Li tossed Gu Qing Shan up and caught him again in another position.
——-he was now carrying Gu Qing Shan on his back.
“What about now?” Ye Fei Li maintained height and asked.
“No, I can’t put in any strength this way!” Gu Qing Shan raised his bow before lowering it again and said.
Ye Fei Li: “Alright, I’m changing again!”
Gu Qing Shan was tossed into the air again.
When Ye Fei Li caught him again, he found himself being caught in Ye Fei Li’s embrace.
——–the legendary princess carry.
The two of them continued flying for a short distance before Ye Fei Li hurriedly asked: “This is a classic posture, is it fine?”
They looked straight into each other’s eyes.
Gu Qing Shan: “…”
Ye Fei Li: “…”
“Definitely not” Gu Qing Shan stated very resolutely.
Suddenly, lines of bloody red text appeared in the void of space:
[With the reset of the Samsara, all things have changed, and you two are the very first to be in an all-male combat group, your Title has been recognized]
[Title: Pure Love Gang]
[Title Skill hasn’t fully manifested, please continue trying your best]
Gu Qing Shan was stunned.
——-this was possible?
Do I really have to use this Title whenever I fight with people from now on?
Gu Qing Shan had never been someone who cared for minor details, but even he was feeling hesitant from this.
Ye Fei Li didn’t see the floating text in the void of space, so he got busy thinking for a few more minutes before he tossed Gu Qing Shan into the air again.
This time, he changed his position from vertical flight to horizontal flight.
Gu Qing Shan landed on his back and stood firmly.
“What about now?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“Good! Let’s charge, make sure to avoid its attacks, I’ll look for any chance to fire arrows at it” Gu Qing Shan loudly responded.
“Got it!” Ye Fei Li answered.
He sped up to the limit to make sure that the lizard couldn’t catch up to his location.
Gu Qing Shan wielded the bow in his hand and held his breath, and silently waited.
After drawing a huge arc in the sky, Ye Fei Li made a U-turn and got around to the back of the large lizard’s neck.
Right at this moment!
Gu Qing Shan’s hands moved like blurred images and fired off the entire content of his quiver in the blink of an eye.
Dozens of arrows flew like shooting stars that drew hyperbolical arcs as they fell towards the lizard’s head.
At the same time, the lizard had just opened its mouth to bite both of them.
“GO!” Gu Qing Shan shouted.
Ye Fei Li once again sped up and rocketed through the clouds, causing the lizard to miss.
Roar——-
The lizard’s pained and furious roars resounded from the ground.
“How was it?” Ye Fei Li loudly asked.
“Not good, it’s too big that the wounds we were able to cause weren’t enough for us to kill it” Gu Qing Shan regretfully answered.
He had run out of arrows.
Putting the bow away, he drew the blade on his waist again.
“That blade isn’t imbued with anything, it probably won’t be able to hurt it either” Ye Fei Li said.
Gu Qing Shan nodded: “Unless we are able to find its weakness right away”
“Or if it was like us and had lost all of its powers” Ye Fei Li added.
Lost its powers?
Wait a minute—–
A certain thought flashed through Gu Qing Shan’s mind.
Instantly, a golden light emerged from his body and fell into his hand.
The Coin of the Earth.
The coin began to ring with a clear chime and talked to Gu Qing Shan.
“What? I’ve already used you when I fell into this world?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Ching ka-ling!
The coin affirmed.
Gu Qing Shan continued to think.
If the Coin of the Earth can’t be used here, then——
Gu Qing Shan put the coin away and called out to the void of space: “Book of the Sea, are you here?”
[I’ve always been here]
A black book appeared out of nowhere and fell into this hand.
“Please tell me what you can about that lizard” Gu Qing Shan said.
[You already owe me 3000 years’ worth of wealth] the Book of the Sea appeared a bit troubled.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t change his expression at all and said: “Brother Book, didn’t you want my help to find the Pendant of Fire? This is the point in time you need to support me the most in order for me to help you find that pendant”
The Book of the Sea sighed: [Fine, then from now on, you owe me 3000 years and one day’s worth of wealth]
“What a ridiculously high price—- deal!” Gu Qing Shan agreed.
The Book of the Sea flipped open by itself to display the text contained inside:
[Lizard of Three Yin]
[This monster was manifested from the Elemental Earth of the Five Elements, capable of spitting out poisonous fog, fire, and lightning from its mouth, its entire body is as tough as stone. As long as it doesn’t move away from the earth, it will continue to exist. Each time it is killed, it would only grow stronger, unless the Earthen Elemental Core that manifested the monster is damaged, it cannot be killed for good]
[A reminder, the Earthen Elemental Core is usually hidden in this monster’s mouth]
The Earthen Elemental Core!
So this monster was actually a manifestation of Elemental Earth!
Wait—-
Li An had said that the Five Elements haven’t been established, causing the Human realm to become unstable.
Could it have been because of these Elemental monsters’ rampage?
Then, would Merit be earned from eliminating these Elemental monsters?
Gu Qing Shan instantly became focused.
“Fei Li, we need to make our way into the monster’s mouth” Gu Qing Shan said.
“What!? It can spit poisonous fog from its mouth at any moment, do you have a death wish!?” Ye Fei Li exclaimed.
Gu Qing Shan explained: “There is an Earthen Elemental Core in its mouth, if we destroy that Earthen Elemental Core, the monster would also be destroyed”
Ye Fei Li thought about it briefly and clenched his teeth: “Let me give it a try!”
Gu Qing Shan tightly grasped the blade and said in a deep voice: “Alright, I’m ready”
Ye Fei Li began descending and flew in circles around the lizard.
He specifically flew around the lizard’s limbs, controlling his speed so that it barely missed them every time.
The lizard was led around so much that it furiously roared and abruptly opened its mouth to spit out scorching hot flames that turned the entire mountain valley into a sea of fire.
“What!? It can breathe fire as well!” Ye Fei Li exclaimed.
“Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!” Gu Qing Shan reminded him several times in a row.
Ye Fei Li abruptly sped up and flew away from the valley before abruptly spinning around in the air.
——a few moments later, the flames went out.
The lizard’s gaping maws slowly closed back up.
Right at this moment!
Gu Qing Shan and Ye Fei Li both noticed the opportunity.
Ye Fei Li abruptly shot back down like a red streak of light.
Right as the lizard closed its mouth, the two of them had just managed to slip inside.
Ye Fei Li looked behind them.
The lizard’s jaws had already closed down, shutting out all the light and causing everything to go dark.
Meanwhile, from the throat of the monster, an intense mass of white and blue light was being concentrated.
Obviously, the lizard had realized what happened and was preparing to kill the two of them——
“Gu Qing Shan, hurry!”
Ye Fei Li roared.
Both of them currently had their powers sealed away, so if they actually died in this monster’s mouth, Ye Fei Li wouldn’t be able to die with his eyes closed.
Gu Qing Shan immediately noticed the Earthen Elemental Core as soon as he looked inside the monster’s mouth.
It was a piece of faintly glowing yellow rock hidden behind the lizard’s sharp teeth.
“Leave it to me”
He replied, then leapt into the air while brandishing his blade——-
A cold gleam flashed through the air.
Lines of bloody red text suddenly appeared in the void of space:
[You’ve killed the Lizard of Three Yin]
[You’ve resolved the Five Elements calamity in this location]
[You’ve earned one point of Merit]
Foo!
The surging electricity at the back of the lizard’s throat abruptly vanished without a trace.
The monster’s body shattered into pieces and disappeared bit by bit into the void of space, vanishing completely.
It’s dead!
Gu Qing Shan lightly sighed in relief while falling back down.
So one really does earn Merit through this method!
As he was thinking that, a figure appeared in front of him.
Ye Fei Li had caught up to catch him as he fell.
“Fucking hell, I thought we were dead” Ye Fei Li exclaimed, still feeling fearful.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t say anything and simply looked back towards the void of space.
[—-The Pure Love Gang had achieved victory in your opening battle, earning a little bit of power for your Title Ability]
[Please continue doing your best so that your name of Pure Love becomes renowned throughout the realm]
[You will surely obtain a powerful Title Ability]
[Continue heading towards the new rising sun, pure men!]
The corner of Gu Qing Shan’s mouth twitched slightly.
“…Fei Li, I have something I need to discuss with you” Gu Qing Shan said.
“What is it?” Ye Fei Li asked.
“From now on, please don’t use the princess carry with men” Gu Qing Shan firmly told him.
“Ah, sure” Ye Fei Li replied.
He changed the carrying posture.
——then lightly put Gu Qing Shan on the ground.
