At this point, the two girls were startled.

The black-cloaked girl said: Ah, oh no, the power that supports us being in this world is about to run out

The white-cloaked girl hurriedly told him: Devil King, you need to be careful

Gu Qing Shan asked: Careful of what?

The situation is very complicated; we cant explain it very well the black-cloaked girl spoke sternly.

The white-cloaked girl glared at her, then continued: In truth, we dont really know what the situation is either

The black-cloaked girl glared back at her and said: Both me and my little sister dont really hold any ambitions, I like to play cards, while she likes to cook, in short, both of us only hope to maintain a peaceful life. But these cultivators clearly have something else in mind, not to mention the other Deities of Huang Quan as well. Once they learn of you being the Huang Quan Devil King, some one would surely try to get rid of you

Why must they get rid of me? Gu Qing Shan asked.

The two girls looked at him full of implications.

The black-cloaked girl worriedly answered: Just think about it, all the dead people from the 18 layers of hell are under your command. How do you think the Deities from Hells Gate Pass, Bridge of Life and Death, Forgetting River Banks, and Reincarnation Hall[1] would feel about that?

Gu Qing Shan was startled.

The white-cloaked girl added: We have a relationship of mutual benefit with you, basically of the same family, so were on your side, but the others wont necessarily be the same

Their bodies slowly turned faint and incorporeal.

They turned around, each grabbing the soul of the female cultivator that they took over before waving to Gu Qing Shan and started fading away.

Before disappearing completely, the white-cloaked girl turned to him and softly spoke: You might believe that there is only one parallel world descending, but thats not the case

The black-cloaked girl added: There are actually a total of 908 parallel worlds undergoing destruction at once, their combined powers broke through the restraints of the Laws of Infinite worlds, thus entering this space vortex and falling into the Eternal Abyss

The white-cloaked girl followed up: The Fate Corrosion created by these destroyed worlds cannot be stopped by anyone, so it shouldnt be too long before the Eternal Abyss is completely defeated

Gu Qing Shan was shocked.

908 parallel worlds all undergoing destruction.

With that level of power, no wonder the Earth Creator was erased in just a moment of carelessness.

Who exactly is behind this?

-why do they insist on destroying the Eternal Abyss?

The black-cloaked girl spoke up again: Devil king, this is the war between parallel worlds and the Eternal Abyss, a true apocalyptic war that would affect countless living beings and countless worlds, you must conceal yourself and flee as far as possible

The white-cloaked girl also said: Take care, I hope that the Devil King will grow stronger and eventually escape from this Apocalypse

The two girls slightly bowed, melted into the void, and completely vanished.

Gu Qing Shan just stood there for a while, stunned.

The truth was beyond anything he could imagine.

This wasnt something that a single person could handle.

This was a war of extinction!

After a long while, Gu Qing Shan sighed and forced himself to stop thinking about it.

A faint fluctuation emerged from his Inventory Bag.

Gu Qing Shan looked down to find that it was actually the ring that Boss gave him.

The Abyssal ring.

At the same time, a line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[The Eternal Abyss is striving to collect all information related to the parallel world and Fate Corrosion]

[Your Abyssal ring had recognized your contact with visitors from a parallel world]

[It wishes for your information]

[You may expend 1 Soul Points to activate the rings power, helping it send information of the truth to the Eternal Abyss]

Gu Qing Shan asked: What if I dont want to tell it?

A new line of glowing text appeared:

[The System shall erase the consciousness of the ring, it will no longer be able to sense the Eternal Abyss naturally, this will require Soul Points]

Gu Qing Shan paused slightly.

he recalled something.

When I returned from the God of Deaths site of inheritance to Calming Soul Country, I discussed something with Boss.

At the time, I said:

Because I carry the [Demon King Order], the Soul Shrieker will surely come to kill me

What do you want to do? Boss asked.

I need the Card fragments in the four Deities hands, I want to resurrect an [Order] to fight against it

Boss thought briefly, then said: Then, Ill help you with this matter. After that, you will help me fight against the Apocalypse

Thats fine Gu Qing Shan replied.

So, we have a deal?

We have a deal

Ive already allied myself with the Abyss

How could I change my mind now?

Gu Qing Shan put the ring into his hand and infused it with Soul Points.

He then formed a hand seal with the other hand to record everything that happened just now into the ring.

Go, tell the Abyss that its enemies might be even stronger than it had assumed!

Gu Qing Shan shouted.

A cluster of light manifested from the ring, then broke through the void of space and flew away.

Since that was over, Gu Qing Shan no longer lingered here.

in truth, if the twin snakes of black and white didnt come to visit, he would have already reached the 7-colored spear.

Gu Qing Shan continued flying forward, arriving at the location he sensed from the fragment around 15 minutes later.

This place

Gu Qing Shan looked up; a bit confused.

Right above him was an endlessly outstretched wall made of a material that his inner sight couldnt penetrate.

Could it be inside the wall?

Gu Qing Shan tried touching the wall.

As soon as he did, the sound of consecutive rumbling resounded.

A number of stones moved away from their positions to reveal a gloomy stone staircase.

There really was something here!

Gu Qing Shan trembled.

Who wouldve thought there as another secret path hidden right on this endless wall?

Gu Qing Shan jumped in and was soon out of sight.

The stones gave off rumbling noises that closed up once more, ensuring that no one would be able to notice anything.

At another location.

The void darkness.

Heavenly King Maras humongous body stood still without moving.

All of a sudden, streaks of light arrived from the faraway darkness stopping one after another.

Like a meteor shower, countless cultivators appeared in this darkness.

Heavenly King Mara kept its eyes closed as its expression moved slightly.

700 900 1200 2700 3000.

A total of 3000 cultivators.

Including a {Yama King} realm peak stage cultivator.

This is a talent that could reach {Mahesvara King} realm, how rare.

Cheh

So these people from Huang Quan were really prepared for a great battle.

It seems those pixie souls would finally be eliminated without fail.

Heavenly King Mara was a bit pleased.

As the cultivators settled themselves, a cultivator stepped out from among the group, clasping his fist towards the Heavenly King Mara: Heavenly King, leave this times matter to us, we will surely give you an appropriate answer

Heavenly King Mara observed and found that it was indeed the {Yama King} realm peak stage cultivator.

The Heavenly King casually spoke: However, those ones had most likely fled far away. Weve already lost their trail, and the entire secret passage is much too deep, it shall take quite a bit of time

That cultivator clapped his hands.

Two cultivators immediately stepped out, jointly forming a hand seal.

We shall tell the Heavenly King, before our men died, they had actually unleashed a tracking Divine Skill that struck those insects flying implement, even if they ran to the ends of Reality, we would still be able to trace them

As he explained, the two cultivators had finished using the tracking technique.

A mass of light formed a screen that expanded to form a scene in the darkness.

On that screen, the Starlight ship was slowly making its descent.

Su Xue Er, Hazedens group, even the pixies souls were clearly displayed in the picture.

The leading cultivator spoke: Please take a look, Heavenly King, we have found the target

The Heavenly King Mara replied: Indeed. I can see that youve brought quite a few people with you, what do you intend to do now?

The cultivator clasped his fist and coldly replied: They dared kill our men, so I will kill every last one of them, bring their souls back and offer them all to the Heavenly King!

Heavenly King Mara laughed:

Ahaha, very well! I love consuming suffering souls such as these. You may leave, I shall be waiting here for your triumphant return!
