Capítulo 1065: Chapter 52: False Words Seal (Part 2)
Gongsun Ce suddenly felt she was like a lonely girl, fighting and racing through a cruel world all by herself. She thought that in the vast world, there would always be like-minded people walking with her, but those she found turned out to be a group of people similar yet different from her ideals. So, turning her back to strangers, she sat alone on the street, hugging her knees tightly with her hands as if embracing herself, her silhouette seemingly abandoned by the world, so lonely.
The Silent King was undoubtedly a being so powerful it was unimaginable, not soone to be pitied, yet Gongsun Ce felt sad seeing her like this. He wriggled a few tis in his sleeping bag and whispered, “Even though I’m not your companion, we can still be friends… If you’re ever bored, you can chat with . I won’t mind.”
“You’re not my companion, I can only kill you!”
The Silent King’s expression changed in an instant, the child-like sadness disappeared as if it had never existed, replaced by an incredibly sharp intent to kill. Like the world was about to be torn apart, the majesty in her voice spread, causing flas to sharply rise. Gongsun Ce, at this mont, felt relieved, he even had the spare ti to smile slightly.
“If you kill , what about the other dragons?” Gongsun Ce said, “We cooperated so well before, and if you back out now, it’s a lose-lose for us. We should finish off the dragons first and then think about my matter, right?”
The Silent King was silent for a mont, pointing a finger at Gongsun Ce’s forehead: “But I will eventually…”
“Yes, yes, yes, one day you will co to kill , but until then, you might as well take a closer look at the current era.” Gongsun Ce said listlessly, “The first ti we t formally, you touched my eyes, and from that mont, you have been using my perception to contact the world, right?”
“…Hmm.”
I knew it. This guy only got acquainted with this era’s ‘common sense’ just now; it’s likely she hadn’t had any contact with the outside world in all those years. Compared to the Silent King, even the socially secluded man on the Spiritual Image Road might be considered well-read and inford — at least he knew people would go mad when they ca into contact with him.
“This current era is actually not that bad; though people don’t live long, they can still live wonderfully.” Gongsun Ce yawned, “Stay with to watch animation, listen to music, travel around, maybe you’d change your mind, who can say for sure about the future?”
“I will not change.” The Silent King emphasized.
“Do you know the King of Destiny? He married a witch, and before I smashed his Huojin Realm, it had coexisted with the Zero Island for a long ti.” Gongsun Ce said, “Even the King of Destiny changed, you might change too, you never know.”
The Silent King was silent for a long ti, silently walked out of the tent, and transford into an invisible dot in the morning light. Gongsun Ce shouted at her back: “When I’m getting affectionate with the ladies, please don’t watch! I’ll get embarrassed!”
The Silent King ignored him; the pervasive coldness in the world dissipated with her departure. Re-opening his eyes, Gongsun Ce returned to reality, shifting slightly to make sure the tent wasn’t on fire, that the world was as usual, then contentedly watched Qiluo’s sleeping face beside him.
Gongsun Ce gazed satisfied for a long ti, leaned over, and kissed her cheek. Qiluo opened her drowsy eyes, made eye contact with him for a few seconds, then let out a silly laugh: “Hehe.”
“Wow, you’re super cute, you know.”
“Throwing straight pitches early in the morning, how sneaky.”
Gongsun Ce rolled around the tent in his sleeping bag, waking his girlfriends with kisses, and in the end, he was transported outside the tent by the reluctant-to-wake Lord Illusion Moon, to greet the rising sun.

After breakfast, the group didn’t travel by car because the captain, with a hundred percent confidence, declared that he had no problem practicing now. So everyone stayed at the original place, watching Gongsun Ce practice together to prevent any accidents.
At this mont, Gongsun Ce was truly at ease, knowing that since he was no longer seen as a companion, the Silent King no longer had any reason to provide “help.” He let his spirit sink in his sleep, arriving at the temple worshipping Spirit Light.
The once monotonous model room now had many more details, a shuriken representing the Solitary Thought Seal hanging on the right wall, while the left weapon rack displayed an embodint cannon representing the False Words Seal. The biggest change was in his Spirit Light. The once gray Nirvana Fla had now beco a coarse and blurry gray human form, with the white furnace becoming the altar beneath the human shape. Flakes of ash spread from the figure, drifting in the temple air, reminding Gongsun Ce of the Tribulation Fla that always accompanied the Silent King’s appearances.
“Like owner like object… ah, hell, proximity to pitch makes one black…”
Gongsun Ce snapped his fingers, and the ash figure imdiately dissipated, revealing the Nirvana Fla. He tried to gather the ash again, attempting to alter the anthropomorphic form, but found the process extrely arduous and tricky.
“It seems it will take so ti before the statue becos practical.” Gongsun Ce pondered, rubbing his chin, “But this form is worth borrowing, let think…”
He quietly observed the process of the ash dissipating and reforming, recalling the inspiration for this anthropomorphic form, the Charming Mist that drew out part of the self. The dust and mist gradually overlapped in his vision, blending with the forr Spirit Prison Realm, igniting a subtle insight within Gongsun Ce.
To command the self… to magnify the self… to emphasize strengths…
What are my strengths?
As he thought, Gongsun Ce’s eyes suddenly lit up, revealing a joyous smile. This ti, he didn’t even need to look back because his strengths have never left him. He put on his black attire, donned a cloak, placed a wide-brimd hat on his head, spun around on the spot, and snapped his fingers with a “pop”.
