P.s: If you’re reading this line, you’re reading a temporary version of this chapter, please check back after 10 minutes for the fully-edited version.

——-

The Wraith realm.

The palace.

After everyone was warped away.

One minute had passed.

Two minutes, then three minutes, then four minutes, then five minutes.

The dozens of layers of Causality Law barriers around the palace were once again undone, Reneedol then reappeared while radiating starlight from all over her body.

“Fei Yue, state your——-”

Reneedol abruptly stopped.

Her beautiful countenance suddenly became cruel.

“How funny, I gave you time to make your decision and you dared to run away?”

Reneedol coldly scoffed.

Immensely powerful gusts of wind appeared from all around her body, blowing in every direction.

The entire palace was reduced to fine dust.

Reneedol stood atop the levelled ground and muttered: “Someone capable of breaking through a Causality Law barrier… who could it be?”

She abruptly vanished.

…

Let’s rewind time by five minutes.

At another location.

As the warp fluctuations faded, Gu Qing Shan appeared in the world of the Water supreme-ruler

The two tigresses could no longer be seen, they most likely have already left to find something.

“Are we going to hide in this world now?”

Fei Yue’s voice sounded from the Cang Hai Heavenly Ark.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “No, we have to leave immediately, Reneedol will arrive in this world very soon”

Reneedol appeared right after he took the first Sealing Token.

So he decided to temporarily not take the second Sealing Token.

The number one priority right now was to survive.

Xiao Die spoke: “This place doesn’t have a Causality Law barrier, so if we want to leave, we can leave immediately, but the issue is where to?”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Any place will do, Reneedol is going to arrive soon, we need to leave this place first, everything else can be left for later”

Fei Yue was surprised: “You mean she knows about this place? Blind big sister, your spirituality teleportation is the strongest type of teleportation that we have, please take us away immediately!”

“Got it” the blind nun swiftly agreed.

A second later, Gu Qing Shan felt another wave of warp fluctuations around his body.

He entered a zone of emptiness, then gradually started to fly into the distance.

Not too long later, the empty void slowly became filled by darkness, causing Gu Qing Shan to feel like he had lost his sense of movement.

Like a man drowning in the middle of an ocean, he couldn’t move despite how hard he tried.

Lines of glowing text quickly appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan’s eyes:

[You’ve entered into a spirituality teleportation state]

[As soon as you left have your current world, you have exited this state and were caught by a different unique force]

[Attention, only you as an individual was brought out of Space and Time by this unique force]

Gu Qing Shan’s heart felt heavy.

Has Reneedol already arrived?

That shouldn’t be it, she said that she would return for Fei Yue’s choice after fifteen minutes.

Because of how strong the Causality Law barrier was, they would have easily been trapped inside for several more days without any issues; and due to how strong she was, she should have calmly waited for that duration.

—–time wasn’t up yet, so she shouldn’t have been able to detect that we’ve escaped.

On the other hand, a Combatant of the blind nun’s level would not make an elementary mistake in creating something like a warp formation.

Then, what’s going on here?

“Gongzi, something is off” Shannu’s voice sounded.

Gu Qing Shan pondered: “Hm, it was most likely not Reneedol, otherwise she would have appeared already. Let’s stay still and observe for any changes”

The darkness around him slowly faded away.

A flash of bright light.

Waves crashing all around.

Gu Qing Shan felt himself standing on top of moving water.

A line of glowing text appeared in front of his vision:

[The first Sealing Token you’ve obtained has been automatically activated]

[It seems to have a unique mission]

[Attention, the following is a recorded message]

Sure enough, a voice then sounded by Gu Qing Shan’s ear:

“Having reached the second sealing location but not taking the Sealing Token, you must have ran into issues”

Boss’ voice.

Gu Qing Shan confirmed: “Indeed, Reneedol is keeping a close eye on me, as soon as I retrieve the second Sealing Token, I would simply be pointing the way for her to capture both me and the Token”

Boss continued: “I was able to predict this possibility, so now you must traverse a different path in order to avoid her”

“What path?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“The path inside the seal”

After answering him, Boss stopped talking.

Gu Qing Shan stood still, then suddenly found that he was holding a Card, on which the following lines of text were written:

[You are now my closest friend, taking on your alias as Rhode]

[My very first name was Shroud]

A second later.

The Card turned into sand before it faded away, disappearing without a trace.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly found himself turning into a 7-8 years old child.

A regretful old voice sounded by his ears:

“You’ve done all you can, but it is too late, she is already dead”

His vision became bright.

A foreign world unfolded around him.

Sunlight.

Forest.

River.

A group of people were standing by the banks.

On the ground lay a small and petite body who seemed to be around 7-8 years old as well, one that had already lost all signs of life.

It was a young girl.

The one who just spoke earlier was a thin white-haired old man wielding a scepter decorated with bones.

Observing his surroundings for a bit, Gu Qing Shan quickly understood the scene in front of him.

Everyone had saved this young girl from the river, but she was already dead.

“Elder, is there really no hope at all?”

An immature voice asked.

Gu Qing Shan followed the voice to see that the one who asked was another child who looked to be 7-8 years old.

His skin was very well-tanned, but his eyes were shining incredibly bright and were full of spirit.

The elder sighed, then stroked the young boy’s head:

“Shroud, you were very heroic when you saved her, but not everyone is able to escape from the quagmire of death”

The boy stayed silent for a bit, then turned around to look at Gu Qing Shan.

“Rhode, can we really not save her?” Shroud asked.

Gu Qing Shan looked at the young girl’s body.

Her heartbeats have stopped for far too long.

She really can’t be saved.

Gu Qing Shan nodded and said: “Shroud, the Elder is right”

The other people around them also chimed in:

“This girl seems to be unfamiliar; she isn’t someone from our Valley”

“That’s right, take a look at the brand on her arm, she was most likely a slave who fled from somewhere and died as she fell into the water”

“Since the river had brought her body to us, let us bury her here”

“Perhaps, someone might even come to receive her corpse soon”

“Yeah”

Shroud walked forward and crouched down, studying the young girl’s body a bit closer.

While the young girl was already dead, her expression carried a sense of peace and relief, as if she wasn’t opposed to her ultimate fate.

Watching her for a while, Shroud suddenly smiled.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Rhode, I’ve seen the scene of countless living beings at their deaths, but this was the first time I’ve seen someone so calm in the face of their own end”

Pausing for a brief moment, Shroud continued: “She is worthy of my salvation”

After saying that, the young boy reached his hand out and lightly knocked on the void of space.

Poof!

A green-robed pixie the size of his thumb appeared.

“Shroud, do you want to play today?” the pixie happily asked.

“No, I want to ask you to save someone today” Shroud said.

“This girl? Oh my, she’s already dead, it’s going to be troublesome to save her” the pixie answered with a troubled tone.

“It’s ok, I know your rules, I’ll pay for it” Shroud replied.

He turned to Gu Qing Shan and gestured with his hand.

Gu Qing Shan searched himself and sure enough, found a bag filled with money.

He handed the bag to Shroud.

“I’m sorry Rhode, our treasures will probably be all used up now” Shroud said apologetically.

“It’s ok” Gu Qing Shan replied.

This seems to be the beginning of everything, and I’ve returned to the point when Boss was still young.

He prepared himself to observe further and collect more information, looking to see what intention Boss had by sending him into this piece of memory.

Hearing him, Shroud turned the bag upside down and shook.

Various gems of every color fell to the ground.

The pixie exclaimed in shock: “Whoa, there are so many rare gems here, this one could only be found on top of a snowy mountain, this one from the depths of a volcano, and this one…”

The pixie suddenly regained his senses and swiftly put all the gems away.

After that was done, he took out a blank certificate with a serious expression, then put it on the young girl’s body in a dignified manner.

“This is the pixie’s certificate of reincarnation, an extremely precious item. If her name appears on it, that means that our pixie Quipcraft is able to resurrect her through reincarnation” the pixie explained.

“But what if her name doesn’t show up?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The pixie sighed: “Then even we pixies would not be able to save her, I would have no choice but to return all of your gems”

Everyone waited for a while.

A word slowly manifested on the empty certificate.

[Reneedol]
