The boundless Blood Sea eventually faded away from the night sky.
This was the manifestation of a world system’s power, representing the fact that Gu Qing Shan had truly grasped how to utilize Realm Force.
The monsters slowly retreated step by step.
Suddenly, a voice spoke up from deep inside the monastery:
“How surprising——”
At so unknown point, an old man in black formal clothing had appeared.
He was standing in front of all the monsters while keeping his hands on top of a cane, his eyes staring closely at Gu Qing Shan>
“For a Pure person to not only survive up to this point, but to also learn how to use Realm Force”
Gu Qing Shan raised his hand into the air and clenched.
Three skeletons descended from the sky and entered his body, then erged from his back.
“From the very mont you failed to kill , you should already know what you were about to face” Gu Qing Shan said.
The old man coldly chuckled and shook his head: “Those hidden spirits consider you the very last straw for them to grasp at, but they fail to realize that no matter how hard they try, the most they’d be able to do was allow you to learn the shallowest ans of using Realm Force, and that doesn’t matter to at all”
He lit a cigarette and slowly took a drag.
Gu Qing Shan simply stood still.
The old man breathed out so smoke and asked: “Don’t you have anything else to say to ?”
Gu Qing Shan replied: “I’m just waiting for your barrier to finish erecting”
The old man was surprised: “You knew?”
“I already knew that you had such an ability from our previous fight, but this barrier doesn’t only trap in, it also traps you” Gu Qing Shan replied.
The old man’s gaze beca as sharp as a blade.
Various shrouds of darkness gradually appeared around them from the void of space, trapping them as well as Laura and the girl inside.
“So, you have no intention of running away” the old man threw the cigarette on the ground and snuffed it out with his feet.
Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “I’ve only just learnt how to use Realm Force, so I need a target to train with”
The old man replied: “My fees are quite exorbitant; you’re going to have to pay for it with your life”
A second later.
A giant black mouth suddenly appeared behind Gu Qing Shan.
That’s fast!
Gu Qing Shan’s pupils beco dilated.
The skeleton behind him flew out to intercept the mouth.
Cra-rack—–
As soon as the skeleton tried swinging its sword, it was already swallowed by the mouth.
At this point, Gu Qing Shan had reappeared in another location and looked at where he originally stood.
Only to see a black ghostly shadow hovering right there.
Countless faces continuously appeared from the void of space; n, won, old, young, beasts, birds, all of which had an expression of despair.
The ghostly shadow slowly stood up and manifested into an eerie burning rune.
The old man’s expression beca even grimr and told him in a tone that wasn’t too fast or too slow:
“In reality——- I never intended to kill you, otherwise, you wouldn’t have made it to the monastery in the first place”
“Oh? So you were holding back? Why?” Gu Qing Shan appeared surprised and asked.
The old man smirked, silently chuckled, then displayed a look of ferocity and madness on his face.
“My Realm Force had entered a unique state where I just happened to need to devour a Saint spirit in order to advance to the next step”
His gaze skipped past Gu Qing Shan and turned to the girl a bit further away.
“All the living people in this world were already dead, and she was hiding in a place I couldn’t possibly search for, willing to let herself die off rather than for to find her——- but right at that mont, a Pure person appeared”
“A Pure person represents hope, and only when there was hope would she appear for to devour her”
Gu Qing Shan sighed and said: “So you had always planned to devour her”
He also turned to the girl.
The girl’s expression remained calm and simply clenched her fist tightly as she looked at Gu Qing Shan.
He was hope.
He was—–
The very last hope in this entire world.
Laura angrily shouted: “You shaless bastard!”
“Shaless?” the old man displayed a mocking expression: “So what if I was shaless?”
Gu Qing Shan also told her: “Laura, you’re wrong about that, you need to apologize to this old mister”
Laura and the girl were both stunned.
The old man was only surprised and turned to look at him as well.
Gu Qing Shan explained: “In truth, this is an excellent tactic, and this old mister successfully lured the spirit into showing herself”
“That’s why when you make all the considerations, this is rely a tactic, and there is no such thing as a shaless tactic”
Hearing him say that, the old man couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Well said. So, you’ve realized the stark difference in power between you and , youngster who had only just awoken his Realm Force?”
“Before this, I hadn’t been using my real strength——– even now, with your primary-level Realm Force, you’re still insignificant to ”
“Kneel in front of and I shall spare your life. Later on, I’ll give you the authority to manage the monastery for ”
He used his cane to point at the muddy ground in front of himself.
Laura glared at Gu Qing Shan and shook his head: “I don’t believe that—–”
The girl also appeared mournful.
Only to hear Gu Qing Shan musing: “I am certainly not his match”
He swiftly approached the old man.
Laura finally couldn’t take it anymore and cried out sorrowfully: “Gu Qing Shan, are you really going to surrender?”
“Surrender? Why would I do that?” Gu Qing Shan replied.
At the sa ti, a prideful squeak could be heard from the void of space.
—-Xiu!
Gu Qing Shan suddenly turned into a large orange cat and seamlessly vanished without a trace.
[Ghostly Shadow of Night]!
—–he had borrowed Adorable’s [Spotless Jade] and vanished in front of everyone!
Imdiately after that, the old man abruptly grunted full of pain.
A manifestation of the Blood Sea instantly filled the entire area.
The blood-colored giant once again appeared and grabbed the old man with both hands, smashing him into the ground.
「 Detestable bastard! 」
The giant roared.
After that, a large leech appeared from within the Blood Sea.
「 A high-rank evil entity, I will accept your blood 」the leech reached out with its tongue.
The old man suddenly looked up and shouted: “Scram!”
The burning eerie rune turned back into a monster and knocked the leech away.
「 How regrettable——」
The leech stared regretfully at the old man and disappeared back into the Blood Sea.
But imdiately after that, countless sword phantoms suddenly appeared from the void of space and struck the old man’s body.
[Realm Spirit Descent] has been activated again!
Nurous bloody glows abruptly appeared from the void of space and imdiately leapt onto the old man’s body.
“AAARRRGH!”
The old man desperately scread.
The bloody glows were all blood insects with exceptionally tough shells!
They were happily eating away at the old man’s body.
“Night Beast, kill these bugs!”
The old man called out.
The ghostly shadow enveloped his body and flung all the insects away.
The old man’s entire face had already been eaten away.
“Hoh— hoh—- hoh—-”
He breathed heavily and roared out of anger: “Get out here! Pure person!”
Completely silent.
No one responded to him.
A gust of wind suddenly blew past.
The old man abruptly turned towards the gust of wind and pointed at it.
The ghostly shadow leapt towards that part of the void of space.
——–but there was nothing there, so the ghostly shadow only lingered for a bit before being forced to return.
“Damn you! I am a second stage Realm Force Combatant, you are definitely not my match, so get out here!”
“Show yourself if you’re a man!”
The old man continued to shout.
And still no response.
The orange cat was simply sitting in a secluded corner and narrowed his eyes at the old man again———
[Forgetting River Severance]!
Instantly, 36 sword phantoms appeared out of nowhere and violently slashed towards the old man!
“Dream on!”
The old man roared.
The ghostly shadow turned into a large shield that blocked these 36 sword phantoms.
——but the orange cat had already changed his directions and glanced at him again from his back.
Offering Iris Technique: [Mountain Wraith]!
An arc of lightning struck the old man’s body and caused him to beco stunned.
A wraith made of lightning descended from the sky and entered the old man’s body.
The orange cat looked at him again.
—–[Forgetting River Severance]!
This ti, it struck him enough tis to summon another Blood Sea Realm Spirit.
A feminine figure surfaced from within the illusory Blood Sea and silently recited an incantation.
Countless ferocious bloody glows shot forward!
The old man was struck by the bloody glows that left no openings and crashed into his own dark barrier; it wasn’t until several breaths’ worth of ti later that the attacks finally stopped and let him fall back down.
Poom!
A heavy dull sound.
The ghostly shadow had returned and protected his body.
——but what good would that do?
As long as Gu Qing Shan didn’t show himself, the old man couldn’t find him at all, he also couldn’t defend against his iris techniques, and was definitely unable to stop him from summoning the Blood Sea Realm Spirits.
For the next while, the old man was struck continuously for a dozen more tis.
—–even if he had one higher level of Realm Force, he was still unable to endure this kind of attack.
The old man coughed up so blood and shivered with his entire body: “Get... get out... here...”
Like he had gone berserk, the old man controlled the ghostly shadow to aimlessly attack his surroundings.
“Show yourself, fight fair and square!”
“You’re no Pure person, YOU’RE THE MOST MALICIOUS AND SHALESS PERSON THERE IS!!!”
While madly shouting, he continued lashing out towards the void of space around him.
Unfortunately.
That did no good at all.
...
Watching this from a distance, Laura finally sighed and muttered to herself: “No wonder Gu Qing Shan didn’t want to call that old man shaless...”
『 Why did he make excuses for that wicked man? 』the girl asked out of confusion.
“Just take a look, he doesn’t even give the old man a chance to hit him, he doesn’t even let the old man see him—— relatively speaking, he’s much more shaless compared to that evil old man”
After explaining this, Laura suddenly smiled.
“—–But I like it”
