Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After the giant beast died, the surroundings regained its vitality.
It was as if everyone hadn’t breathed the air of freedom for a long time. They all closed their eyes and felt the wilderness’s aura.
In Gu Changqing’s hand, the divine rune energy crystal flickered with a mysterious light. In the next second, it broke down into power and went into his body.
“As expected!”
Gu Changqing’s heart was delighted. Within the giant beast’s remnant divine rune, a large amount of spatial law rules revolved in his sea of consciousness.
After a long time, Gu Changqing opened his eyes and revealed a satisfied smile. After absorbing the remnant divine rune shard, he had already grasped this place’s spatial law easily, and all of it was only at his fingertips.
At the same time, he also mastered the array formation the beast had used.
Gu Changqing had already learned how to use the method of space folding. To him, this wasn’t a small gain.
In the following exploration, he could already display 100% of his strength.
This world’s suppression on him was already useless.
It was a pity that he didn’t go through the giant beast’s memories before it died. Otherwise, his understanding of this world would be more precise and clear.
After a short rest, everyone once again set foot on the road to Luoshui City.
Not long after they left, a large head suddenly popped out of the clouds floating in the sky. A resentful look reflected in his eyes as he looked in the direction where Gu Changqing and the others went to in the distance. Then, he returned to the clouds as if he had never appeared.
In the sky, a cloud slowly followed behind Gu Changqing and his subordinates, changing its form from time to time in fear of being discovered.
There were no more accidents along the way. Two days later, a majestic ancient city appeared in front of Gu Changqing.
However, after observing the city using his divine sense, he was about to leave when his sense was blocked by a barrier.
It seemed that one would have to go through a lot of twists and turns to enter each of the twelve main cities. However, this time, what tricks were they up to?
His plan to enter the city through wormholes and teleportation had failed.
Gu Changqing could only give up on the idea of gaining an advantage as the main city’s area had been sealed off.
He could only find another way.
At that moment, Su Li, who had been unconscious for almost seven days, finally woke up.
Seeing that she was safe and sound, Hidden Prison Evil Emperor heaved a sigh of relief.
As if she knew that Gu Changqing would have questions, she bowed respectfully to him.
She was prepared to be questioned, or to even have her memories searched. Despite that, the other party only asked a few simple questions.
As an Otherworldly Demon, Su Li had been sent to Blue Star since she was a child. With the help of a powerful secret technique that concealed her aura, she had successfully deceived all the humans there.
At that time, it was normal for all of the planet’s creatures to awaken their divine runes, so an ‘awakened’ Nine-Tailed Fox Demon seemed like nothing unusual.
Due to this, not many people cared. Afterward, the story slowly became
melodramatic.
Just as many people had expected, Su Li ‘accidentally’ got close to the human ruler of the time, Di Xin, and successfully fell into his arms.
She accompanied him in his universe conquest and entered Universe City. The latter even built his own city there, which was Chaoge. He was perfect in both external battles and internal governance.
However, in terms of emotions, countless humans didn’t want Di Xin to be tied down by a Nine-Tailed Fox Demon.
The proud Di Xin would not listen to what others said, and he continued to dote on her. The stone platform in Chaoge City was built by Di Xin for him and Su Li to drink and have fun.
He gradually turned from a genius ruler to a foolish tyrant. Fortunately, he was never careless when it came to fighting against enemies from the universe.
This was until the end, when a few enemies had brought their armies to attack Universe City.
At that time, Di Xin led the entire human race to fight. Everyone was doing their best without fear of death, and victory was leaning toward them.
However, in Chaoge City, Su Li was protected by an enchantment. She got controlled and strengthened in an instant by a power that was hundreds of times stronger than her original body.
After that, a huge wormhole opened. Countless Otherworldly Demons poured out from it to Chaoge City.
The humans who were fighting outside the city were suddenly stabbed in the back.
The scales of victory tilted once again. Under the backstabs, the human race quickly retreated and was almost completely wiped out in the end. The culprit behind all of this was none other than Su Li and Di Xin.
Even if Su Li was not the one who did it, and she was the one who controlled the human race, the human race had already lost.
She was paralyzed on the stone platform after being injected with a power that far exceeded her own. All her bones and muscles were broken, and she was barely holding on with her last breath.
Di Xin, who was severely injured, used the last of his divine runes to stabilize her soul. His broken body was beyond repair.
Coincidentally, a tanuki passed by, and Di Xin had no choice but to forcibly merge her soul into the tanuki’s body.
He then instructed his guards to take her away from the scene as far as possible. One of the guards took Su Li away from Universe City, and the latter then disappeared from the universe.
The guard was none other than the Hidden Prison Emperor Clan’s patriarch.
Blue Star was once her hometown. As for her relationship with Di Xin…
Just like any melodramatic plot, it was true love.
After explaining everything, they finally found the reason why Di Xin’s tomb was built in the wilderness.
Although the word ‘sinner’ was unfair, he was the reason why the human race almost disappeared in the end.
To them, this was indeed a heinous crime.
That was the end of an entire era.
Mankind’s victory over the enemies from the universe had been pushed back by countless billions of years. As a result, in Gu Changqing’s era, he had only just come into contact with the concept of Otherworldly Demons.
“Haha! A fox demon and a human sinner! Get lost, get out of my sight immediately! ”
Gu Changqing’s expression was extremely cold after hearing the latter’s story.
“I understand.”
Su Li knew that this was the result, so she did not say anything more. She turned around and left quickly.
Seeing this, Hidden Prison Evil Emperor also left.
“Detected human descendants who meet the requirements for the challenge.
The challenge begins!”
In an instant, before anyone could react, Gu Changqing and Huang Di were sucked into a new space.
It happened so quickly that even Gu Changqing’s fast reaction speed wasn’t enough. Without him and Huang Di, he hoped that the others wouldn’t encounter any danger outside.
Gu Changqing looked in front of him at the world full of gray-white flames, falling into deep thought..
