Chapter 1748 The Four Saint Pillars manifestations!

They didnt end up having a drinking bout.

[True Luck]s effects hadnt ended, so every second was exceptionally precious, and Gu Qing Shan wouldnt waste it on something like a drinking bout.

And as sharp as the evil creatures were, it only took Gu Qing Shan a random excuse for them to put their party off until a different day.

the Elements Purgatory was about to become accessible, and since Gu Qing Shan was a Chosen Saint, it naturally made sense for him to be a busy person, the evil creatures were quite considerate.

Everyone only discussed the Elements Purgatory briefly before dispersing.

Xie Dao Ling had been standing on the sideline this entire time, waiting until Gu Qing Shan was done before she spoke:

Now that you have the evil creatures support, you need to take the initiative and enter the Elements Purgatory first

Do we really need to be in such a hurry? Gu Qing Shan couldnt help but ask.

The Samsara was already broken once so that it could evolve, it would only become stronger than before. Only by becoming one of the most exceptional living beings would the Samsara allow you to wield its power Xie Dao Ling explained.

Then what about you? Gu Qing Shan asked.

The Heavenly Emperor must be searching everywhere for me right now- it seems I need to find a secluded location to take refuge Xie Dao Ling replied.

Gu Qing Shan turned his gaze towards the string bracelet on her wrist and nodded.

If it wasnt thanks to my temporary luck, if it wasnt for the Book of the Sea quickly identifying an Apocalyptic spoil of war the set of armor that used to belong to the Samsara, and if the Key of the Wind hadnt been able to directly open a gate into the secret room, the Heavenly Emperor would have been able to catch up to us.

At the moment, the Heavenly Emperor is still the strongest.

And he also has the Pendant of Fire with him.

For the sake of safety, it certainly does make sense to go into hiding first, rather than meeting up with the other Shifu.

Gu Qing Shan thought quickly before suddenly speaking to the void of space: All three of you, come out here, I have something to discuss with you

The Book of the Sea and Key of the Wind both appeared.

A golden glint manifested as the Coin of the Earth also emerged from the palm of his hand, hovering with the other two Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts.

Gu Qing Shan crossed his arms and complained: I say, isnt it about enough of this? Three cant win against one, and being chased all over the place like this as well, doesnt it feel humiliating?

The Book of the Sea refuted: (We cant be blamed for that- We Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts all have different functions. For example, my function is to record knowledge, so if you tell me to attack or defend, of course, I wouldnt be able to do it]

The Key of the Wind added: (There is another crucial factor. You are the Earth God, so you can utilize the Coin of the Earths powers almost completely, but since you arent the Wind God nor the Water God, you are unable to utilize the power of the Wind and Water Pillars to their limits]

Kaling!

The golden coin also let out a noise to signal its agreement.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

A Soul Artifact must have a wielder.

This is similar to how weapons must have a wielder to truly be able to exert their true powers.

And more importantly...

He made various considerations before gradually resolving himself.

Im currently being affected by [True Luck), so everything should proceed in the most beneficial manner to me, which means this is the best time to do this!

Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat before turning to the Key of the Wind and Book of the Sea:

Then, how about I find you both a new master?

The Book of the Sea spoke right away: [If youre talking about that woman next to you, then I absolutely refuse she nearly ripped me in half with her bare hands earlier!)

Gu Qing Shan could only turn to the Key of the Wind.

The Key of the Wind spoke: (You were the one who forged me, so Ill respect your wishes just this once and see if she qualifies to become my master]

The Key of the Wind flew by itself and began circling around Xie Dao Ling.

While moving, it also started giving off green light that gradually surrounded Xie Dao Ling.

Something miraculous occurred.

As the light illuminated Xie Dao Ling, various colorful spirit flowers continuously manifested, displaying their solemnity and mysticism.

The Key of the Wind flew back and told Gu Qing Shan: (She is surrounded by overwhelming natural spirits, even though she is currently an incomplete soul, if she is able to escape from her current restraints and regain her complete self, her capabilities would be immeasurable- Im very pleased]

Gu Qing Shan grinned.

The Key of the Wind is the Spatial Saint Pillar Soul Artifact, so if its willing to accept Xie Dao Ling as its master, her safety would be guaranteed.

The Heavenly Emperor would never be able to capture her again!

That way, I can enter the Elements Purgatory without any worries.

Would the Heavenly Emperor detect us during the acceptance ritual? Gu Qing Shan asked.

(He would not. This is an internal matter between Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts, completely unrelated to the owners of course, as you are the Earth God, we wont chase you away since youre already here] the Book of the Sea answered.

Gu Qing Shan felt even more assured.

Shifu, the Key of the Wind in my hands wishes to accept you as its master. As youve already seen, it is capable of opening a gate to any location, as long as you can provide it with the necessary vitality Gu Qing Shan explained.

I can see that, if it is one of the Four Saint Pillars, then it would certainly be of great help to me come! Xie Dao Ling called out towards the Key of the Wind.

The Key of the Wind replied gently and obediently landed in her hand.

Something immediately occurred

Lines of bloody red text started to appear in the void of space:

(Youre currently witnessing the following ritual:]

(Xie Dao Ling becoming the master of the Key of the Wind]

[According to the rules of the Four Saint Pillars, as one Saint Pillar forms a covenant, the other three Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts will manifest to witness it]

The bloody red text quickly disappeared.

In an instant, the entire world was nowhere to be seen.

It had become a vast river of stars.

Xie Dao Ling doubtfully asked: This is

This is the ritual of acceptance of the Four Saint Pillars, when I became the master of the Earth Gods coin, I also experienced the same thing Gu Qing Shan explained.

The Coin of the Earth and Book of the Sea also took flight, continuously circling around Xie Dao Ling and the Key of the Wind in her hand as if to congratulate them.

A few moments later.

The void of space began to fluctuate.

A fiery red pendant also emerged.

The Fire Saint Pillar, Pendant of Fire!

The other three Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts flew up and began to communicate with the pendant.

They each merrily spoke in their own language of noises for a long while.

Gu Qing Shan didnt say anything, but silently called out in his mind: Coin, help me ask the pendant if the Heavenly Emperor had used any other countermeasures that he used on my Shifu

Kaling!

The Coin of the Earth replied to him in his mind, then began to fly around the Pendant of Fire and called out continuously.

Being bothered by it so much, the Pendant of Fire could only reply with some noise.

The Four Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts continued to communicate for a long while before they flew down and circled around Xie Dao Ling, occasionally making noises as if to evaluate or comment on her.

The Key of the Wind was continuously making a metallic thick noise to introduce her to the other three Soul Artifacts.

A few moments later, the four Soul Artifacts all took flight and respectively began to give off a gold, red, green, and black-colored light, which then fused together while resonating with a buzzing noise.

The resonating noise grew increasingly louder until it echoed throughout the entire sea of stars, causing an endless number of worlds to tremble.

All of a sudden, the sea of stars disappeared.

All the supernatural phenomena were gone. Gu Qing Shan and Xie Dao Ling had both returned to the peak of the mountain, standing where they stood previously.

The Pendant of Fire had already vanished.

The Key of the Wind landed in Xie Dao Lings hand and instantly disappeared without a trace.

A faint green wind-like aura began to drift around her body.

Shifu, how do you feel? Gu Qing Shan asked.

Xie Dao Ling appeared to be in thought and muttered: It feels... like this key doesnt only have the ability to open the path to any location, but its capable of other things as

well

Of course, since youre now its master, you can naturally exert the full extent of its powers, but youll need to figure those powers out by yourself Gu Qing Shan replied.

in the past, it wasnt until I obtained the Coin of the Earth that I realized it didnt only possess (True Luck), but also has (Shelter] and [Absolute Prohibition).

As one of the Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts, its natural for the Key of the Wind to possess other secret abilities.

The Book of the Sea and Pendant of Fire should be the same as well.

The Book of the Sea was still hiding near Gu Qing Shan.

As the two of them spoke, the golden coin fell down and landed in Gu Qing Shans hand. Kaling! Kling kling kling!

As if boasting its achievements, the coin continuously gave off a chiming metallic noise.

Gu Qing Shan solemnly listened to it.

Even after the golden coin had stopped making noise, he still remained silent.

Whats the matter? Xie Dao Ling asked.

I asked the Coin to investigate a bit and ask whether the Heavenly Emperor had used any other miracles on you

And what have you found out?

There is still another miracle thats affecting the current you and the other you

Which is?

The Heavenly Emperor was afraid that you might go out to search for your present incarnation, so he paid a heavy price to invoke this miracle:

If you try to search for your present incarnation, it would definitely not bare any results and eventually lead you to the Heavenly Emperor himself, once again being sealed by him

After listening to his explanation, Xie Dao Ling stayed silent for a while before speaking: ...Ive always known that there are countless unique powers within the Boundless Void, but never have I thought that the Saint Pillars powers would be so great, being able to control even this

Gu Qing Shan also sighed.

Within the Boundless Void, there are infinite possibilities.

There is even a legend that the Four Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts are directly related to an ultimate secret.

But thats a distant matter.

I dont have the time or strength to be investigating something like that.

We cant search for your present incarnation... so it seems we need to think of something else Gu Qing Shan commented.

Do you have any ideas? Xie Dao Ling asked.

Both of them both abruptly went quiet.

The sound of rapid footsteps emerged from the mountain road leading up here.

Someone was rapidly approaching!

Xie Dao Ling stepped forward to stand next to Gu Qing Shan and whispered: If its a heavenly being, Im going to open a gate for us to immediately leave this place

Understood Gu Qing Shan replied.

The two of them focused their gazes on the mountain road.

After a little bit, a figure could be seen rapidly approaching

While running as fast as they could, the figure called out towards Gu Qing Shan: Junior brother! Its me, its me!

Gu Qing Shan squinted, then suddenly exclaimed: Second brother?

The person practically cried out: Its me! Ive finally found the two of you!
