The tall black suit man maintained his polite appearance .
He was smiling at Gu Qing Shan, waiting for the answer he was hoping for .
But the words he heard completely stunned him instead .
Gu Qing Shan continued: “I’ve already given a very polite and definitive answer to your master’s proposal, you can go back and report to him now”
The tall man’s smile froze over .
『 Mr . Gu Qing Shan 』his tone became cold, 『 Have you always been this arrogant and ignorant? 』
“Expressing my own will and choice is hardly arrogant” Gu Qing Shan replied .
The man reached out his hand pointing at the endlessly burning flames of Purgatory beneath his feet .
From the bottomless hole, the flames were burning bright .
If you took a careful look, you’d find that there were a large number of monsters hidden inside the flame .
The flames acted both as a barrier and the ground for the monsters, running back and forth doing their own things .
As the tall man pointed at the flame, all the monsters stopped and looked Gu Qing Shan’s way .
They all lowered their bodies, baring their fangs maliciously .
『 Perhaps you don’t know, just how big a price I have to pay to project a corner of Purgatory to this Old God’s world 』the man spoke .
Gu Qing Shan smiled back: “Of course I don’t, unfortunately, that monster you prepared couldn’t kill me, so you have no choice but to come out and talk”
Two swords appeared behind Gu Qing Shan from the void of space .
He continued: “Now that I think about it carefully, the monster just now tried to summon an illusion, and almost succeeded in taking me into it . That world in the illusion must’ve been your Purgatory, isn’t it?”
The tall man went silent .
『 You truly are sharp, Mr . Gu Qing Shan 』
Saying so, he pulled up his sleeve to reveal his left arm .

There was a circular burning brand on his left wrist, depicting a two-horned monster inside .
Without waiting for him to act, a sword had stabbed through his chest .
From behind, another sword stabbed him at the same angle .
A light ‘ki’ was heard .
The two swords struck each other, one of them turned into an afterimage and disappeared, while the Chao Yin sword spun back .
Gu Qing Shan raised one eyebrow unexpectedly and caught the sword .
[Swallow Returns] wasn’t able to hit him, how unexpected .
『 It’s useless, this projection is several million worlds away from the true Purgatory where I am, you can’t reach me 』the man laughed .
He was staring at the sword in Gu Qing Shan’s hand with a look of greed: 『 If it weren’t for this sword of the Old Gods, you think you would even be qualified for me to pay such a huge price to come here!? 』
“You can’t even fight properly . So you guys at Purgatory just talk others to death?” Gu Qing Shan regretfully mocked him .
『 No, you underestimate us too much, Gu Qing Shan 』the man grunted .
As he raised his left arm, the burning brand on it started to give off a smell of sulfur .
『 Through the summoning of the Entropy Ghost, I will have you rethink your actions in Purgatory 』
The flames started to manifest, rising from his arm .
An endless yellow flame rose to the air, forming the outline of a two-horned monster .
『 Master of the flames, Demon Lord of Time and Space 』 he chanted .
Gu Qing Shan scowled .
I can’t kill him, but he can use a spell to affect me?
That’s impossible .
The Laws of Time and Space are mutually binding .
As if just now…
He let me attack first to prove that I have no way to hit him?
The Earth sword suddenly urged him: 「 Quickly! Right now! Only when he attacks can you hurt him! 」
“Just like I thought”

Gu Qing Shan’s mind moved quickly and formed the hand seals again .
“Kill him!”
With his order, the Earth sword flew forward in a flash straight at the man .
『 With such a trashy sword, you think you can------- 』
The man scoffed .
He waved his other hand to create several barriers of flame to stop the flying sword .
But he couldn’t finish his sentence .
The Earth sword flew straight through the barriers of flame and manifested a large bluish arc of light .
Secret Art, [Crescent Slash]!
The tall man was bisected from head to tail .
He froze in place .
In the sky, the flaming monster suddenly cried a scream of unwillingness .
Before it could fully manifest, it had already been dissipated .
The Earth sword stood straight up, silently hovering in front of the man while blood dripped down its blade .
「 You garbage imp of Purgatory dared to mock me? 」the Earth sword spoke in a low voice .
『 You… what exactly… 』
Before his words could finish, the man’s body had already fallen to either side, dropping down the bottomless hole .
The endless flames of Purgatory covered his body, burning it to ashes .
Boom!
The flames rose to the sky .
A huge and ferocious figure appeared in the flame .
『 Seems like the mediation had failed 』
The ferocious figure sighed .

It looked around before finally locking its gaze on Gu Qing Shan .
“You’re his master?” Gu Qing Shan asked .
『 Correct, so you are the insect? 』the figure clicked its tongue: 『 At this important junction in time, you dared to go against the flow of history? Should I call you brave, or foolish? 』
Gu Qing Shan raised his sword: “History is merely the result born from the struggles of countless people . If you’re brave enough, stop hiding behind the curtains and get out here, we’ll see what choice history makes”
『 I already did 』
The figure spoke in an apologetic voice: 『 This soul spell of mine can only be performed by having a subordinate sacrificing their own life, so I’ve already done what I needed to do 』
Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt a burning sensation on his arm .
Looking down, he saw a black burning mark .
At the same time, lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI .
[The master of Purgatory had placed a soul insignia on you: Purgatory’s Embrace]
[Purgatory’s Embrace: At the time of your death, the master of Purgatory will bypass the restraints of time and space to appear in front of you]
[The master of Purgatory will take your soul back to Purgatory]
The figure spoke: 『 Let us say our goodbyes . When you die, I will personally give you punishment in Purgatory 』
Gu Qing Shan smirked and waved his hand: “See you later then”
『 What kind of attitude is that? 』 the figure was surprised and asked .
“If a coward that only knows how to hide in the shadows like you actually dares to take me to Purgatory, then prepare to lose your place” Gu Qing Shan spoke .
The Chao Yin sword and Earth sword both acted at the same time .
His hand seals activated .
Sha!
Two large arcs of light passed through the giant black figure .
I missed!
Gu Qing Shan silently told himself .
Sure enough, he’s still hiding in the projection of Purgatory, so I have no way to hit him .
『 Full of nonsense just like always, mortals like yourself will never truly understand true fear until the very moment of your deaths 』the figure casually replied .
“Then we’ll meet again at that time, let’s see who REALLY has something to fear” Gu Qing Shan also replied .
『 Hmph! Right now, if it wasn’t for that sword of yours 』
The figure glared at the Chao Yin sword and regretfully shook his head .
Soon after, both the figure and all the flames of Purgatory disappeared without a trace .
The only thing left there was a large empty hole .
「 He ran too fast, I didn’t have a second chance to attack 」 the Earth sword muttered .
It returned to Gu Qing Shan .
“A Daemon?” Gu Qing Shan asked .
「 It was . Probably a lucky small fry that managed to survive from Purgatory’s Age of Old 」the Earth sword answered .
“Why do I feel like you’re not really ok right now?” Gu Qing Shan asked .
During that last attack, Gu Qing Shan felt a slight lag between the Earth sword’s movement and his hand seals .
There was a faint connection between a sword cultivator and a sword spirit, which was why Gu Qing Shan asked this .
「 I haven’t had Soul Points to nurture myself lately so it’s just a few old problems acting up 」the Earth sword replied .
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit heavy .
The Earth sword was the sword that had been with him the longest, an heirloom of the sect, but now it seems it’s feeling a bit sick .
“I’ll give you some Soul Points”
Gu Qing Shan had the War God pour some of his Soul Points into the Earth sword .
Since he had almost 1 million Soul Points right now, Gu Qing Shan directly transferred 100,000 of that into the Earth sword .
「 Ahh, that feels much better, thanks 」the Earth sword replied .
Gu Qing Shan tried a simple hand seal .
The Earth sword quickly flew to the sky and flexibly performed a full set of Wind Slash Style .
Sensing the Earth sword’s state returning to normal, Gu Qing Shan felt a bit more assured .
