Chapter 1169: There’s only one cloud


“Brother Gu”


“Yes?”


Gu Qing Shan regained his senses.


Bai Zhuo said: “The Divine Mountain said that there were two main reasons why it had contacted you like this, a big issue, and a small issue. If you can solve them for it, the Divine Mountain will directly send you to the summit then help evolve your [Mountain of Orange] into a Sumeru Thaumaturgy”


Gu Qing Shan’s eyes glowed brightly.


It had been a long time since he had obtained a large number of Soul Points.


He didn’t even earn a single bit of Soul Points from killing Cang Wu Zhang.


According to the War God UI’s judgement, Cang Wu Zhang’s strength did not match that of a true Wraith Might, which meant that he wasn’t on the same level as Gu Qing Shan.


——and thus he didn’t gain any Soul Points.


Possessing the power of three dragons, Gu Qing Shan could only face enemies at the level of Wraith Might or Wraith lord in order to earn Soul Points through combat.


Otherwise, it was hopeless.


His only other choices were the Sacrificial Dance and [Mountain of Orange]


The Sacrificial Dance wasn’t something that he could perform as he wished.


[Mountain of Orange] only provided him with 1 Soul Points per second.


If [Mountain of Orange] can evolve and provide me with more Soul Points…


That would be the best result.


With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan asked right away: “Then, [Mountain of Orange] can become even more powerful?”


“That is what the Divine Mountain said, a Sumeru Thaumaturgy is more powerful compared to a Mahesvara Thaumaturgy” Bai Zhuo replied.


“Very well, what does it want me to help resolve?”


“Well first take a look at the small issue—– Divine Mountain, please take us there”


Bai Zhuo respectfully bowed towards the ceiling of the hall.


Immediately the scenery around Gu Qing Shan and Bai Zhuo changed.


They had left the hall to enter a barren field with strange jagged rocks.


Wisp of flames covered all over the place, the entire surface of the ground had nothing that could be eaten, only terrifying wraiths that were leading groups of humans who didn’t even have enough clothing to cover themselves as they fought one another.


Any humans who were captured in these fights instantly became slaves to be arbitrarily tortured and berated while the wraiths who led them howled in triumph.


“The Wraith realm”


Gu Qing Shan observed the wraiths and commented.


Bai Zhuo noticed his gaze and replied: “Indeed, these are the primordial wraiths, actual powerful wraiths who were the true rulers of the Wraith realm, unlike the bunch who wore masks”


“Indeed, they are much crueler, and humans were only a tool for their enjoyment” Gu Qing Shan observed those people and shook his head.


He noticed the face of a unique wraith, which reminded him of Cang Wu Zhang’s mask.


——–the face depicted on that mask actually belonged to this wraith.


This wraith unleashed countless shadows to beat his enemy up until they could no longer resist him, then proceeded to pick them up and ripped their arms off, devouring it whole.


“So the Guise Hexes borrow the powers of primordial wraiths…” Gu Qing Shan muttered.


Now that I mention this, I’ve never seen true wraiths from the Wraith realm, only low-level wraiths, common wraiths, and the humans who had joined the side of the wraiths.


Where are the primordial wraiths?


Bai Zhuo then spoke: “The reincarnators are here…”


Gu Qing Shan let go of his previous thoughts and looked down at the center of it all.


The wraiths also seemed to have noticed something as they all stopped their hands to glance at the void of space.


A group of people descended from above, landing in the middle of the barren field.


There was a thin layer of light around their bodies that protected them, temporarily separating them from this world.


「 Come, plunge yourselves into the Wraith realm, as this place has everything you desire 」 a wraith loudly declared.


The reincarnators exchanged glances.


One of them even had the courage to question: “How do you know what I want?”


The wraith from earlier slowly came closer, looked down on this group and lowered its voice a bit: 「 Of course we know, every individual who has karma with the Wraith realm surely holds intense malice in their hearts 」


「 My friends, do you wish to commit evil deeds? 」


The wraith then loudly roared: 「 Come, enter the Wraith realm, where you are free to kill anybody you wish! Push any woman down! Torture any man! Steal! Burn! Kill! Everything from your wildest dreams! In this place, there shall be no one to stop you, because—– 」


「 This is the Law that the Wraith Realm respects above all else! 」


The group looked behind the wraith, only to see some thin and malnourished men and women being pushed to be ground, while the stronger fighters simply looked on and laughed in pleasure.


Some of the reincarnators immediately stepped forward.


“This is the world I dream of, where doing evil deeds is the greatest pleasure!”


“Ahahaha, a place without restrictions of law and morals, I like this place”


“I want to reincarnate here”


“I as well, this place was practically made for me!”


They then remained.


Gu Qing Shan turned to Bai Zhuo.


Bai Zhuo replied: “When the Divine Mountain created the Samsara, there had been a few issues. At this point in time, any living being would face two or more choices after death, from which they are able to choose the world they would like to reincarnate and begin anew”


Gu Qing Shan replied: “I see”


After those people had chosen to remain, the light from their bodies disappeared.


They had joined this world.


Immediately the presence that the wraiths gave off became different.


「 Newcomers 」


As one wraith uttered a single word, another wraith had followed up: 「 Shall begin as slaves! 」


Their human subordinates started laughing maniacally and charged forward with weapons in hand.


Countless screams of pain and suffering resounded.


Bai Zhuo asked: “Have you noticed?”


Gu Qing Shan crossed his arms: “The wraiths can deceive the reincarnators to make them stay——- but I don’t find anything wrong with that. Those who wish to commit evil deeds would naturally need to be prepared to be the target of others’ evil deeds”


“I agree, that that isn’t where the issue lies” Bai Zhuo clapped his hands.


The scene of the Wraith realm disappeared from their visions.


A great winding mountain appeared in front of the two of them.


The forests were lush, trees were growing tall, the water streams flowed without end, fruits of all shapes and sizes were in abundance.



A large gorilla raised a small flag in its hand and called shout: “Follow me, come and take a look at the scenery here”


A group of reincarnators actually followed it.


“Take a look at this stream right here, do you see how clear it is, it is also extremely fresh”


“This place here is heaven on earth, with countless beautiful natural sights for you to see, and all sorts of fruits for you to pick and eat”


“By joining the Beast King realm, anyone can transform into any animals, whether you want to appear cute and cuddly or dignified and solemn, everything can be as you desire!”


“Can we turn back into humans?”


“Of course, you are free to transform as you like. In human form, you can even obtain Beast King powers of your corresponding forms!”


One person couldn’t help but question: “Then is there anything that we must do?”


“Something you must do?” the big gorilla turned around and pointed at the man: “A very good question, you all must participate in the grand monthly banquet of food and drinks!”


“Whoa, that sounds great!”


“I want to become a majestic lion and obtain the power of lions”


“I want to become a monkey, the kind born from stone!”


“How uninteresting of you, I want to become a bird and freely soar through the sky!”


Everyone excitedly discussed.


Bai Zhuo clapped his hands.


The scene disappeared from their visions again.


Another world appeared.


In a large square filled with weapons and armor, a man wearing battle armor loudly declared: 「 Come to the Asura realm, take a look, take a look. Just by being here, you have been granted a free weapon of the highest quality! As well as the corresponding world-class scripture! 」


The reincarnators curiously looked around.


Someone picked up a flaming battle axe and asked with interest: “Is there a corresponding manual for this weapon?”


「 Of course! 」the man walked forward and showed him a few scriptures.


Another person asked: “I don’t like using weapons, are there any hand-to-hand combat methods?”


「 There are 」


The man casually showed them 7-8 different scriptures.


「 In the Asura realm, with every level that your combat prowess grows, you shall be granted a scripture fitting of your talents, as well as a free set of armor. If you are truly excellent, we shall also provide a powerful animal combat companion! 」


「 Furthermore——- 」


The man clapped his hands.


From the void of space, several women appeared.


Everyone exclaimed in shock.


「 Can you see? The women of our Asura race are the most beautiful and most alluring in the entire Samsara 」


「 Ahaha, however, before you want to conquer an Asura woman’s heart, you must first conquer her in battle! 」


Bai Zhuo looked at Gu Qing Shan.


Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and said: “Very impressive marketing”


Bai Zhuo clapped his hands and sent the Asura realm’s images away as well.


“The other worlds are like this more or less, in summary, every Samsara world is currently inviting members” Bai Zhuo explained.


“Why are they all in so much hurry to collect people? Is there a common goal?” Gu Qing Shan asked.


Bai Zhuo answered: “The more population a realm has, the more resources the Divine Mountain would grant them, and the more powerful their world would become”


Gu Qing Shan pondered a bit and said: “Isn’t that a good thing, I can see that each world is doing an extremely good job at soliciting new people—— then what was the small issue that you’ve mentioned?”


Bai Zhuo clapped his hands.


A new world appeared in front of them.


Faintly drifting clouds and mist.


Other than clouds, there was mist; and other than mist, there were also clouds.


There was literally nothing else.


“This place is?”


“The Heavenly Palace”


“Huh? Why isn’t there anyone in the Heavenly Palace?”


Right as he said this, he turned to the man sitting among the clouds.


——-Chang Yu Li.


This was the human scout who had gone together with Bai Zhuo on a mission, only to die an unfortunate death at the mouth of a tiger.


Chang Yu Li stood up and smiled bitterly: “Brother Gu, you probably didn’t know, but this Heavenly Palace consumed a lot of the Divine Mountain’s resources for its creation. Just creating these clouds alone had already wasted too much of the Divine Mountain’s energy”


Bai Zhuo continued: “Among the Samsara, every other realm can attract reincarnators, but this Heavenly Palace was simply too hard to look at, so no one was willing to enter”


Gu Qing Shan looked around and muttered: “Compared to the previous worlds, it truly is severely lacking…”


Bai Zhuo sighed: “If no one comes here, the Heavenly Palace would never finish building”


Chang Yu Li shook his head: “The worse that the Heavenly Palace appear to be, the fewer people are willing to enter it”


“And this would become a negative feedback loop—— then, the Divine Mountain wants me to convince a few people to enter the Heavenly Palace?” Gu Qing Shan asked.


“Yes” both of them answered in unison.


There’s only a single cloud.


With this desolate living environment, who would be willing to stay in a world like this?


Gu Qing Shan thought briefly before rolling up his sleeves and said: “I’ll give it a try, first send someone who’s qualified to enter the Heavenly Palace here”


Bai Zhuo took out a jade disk, examined it, and replied: “There is a human cultivator who lost his life fighting against the demon beasts. After death, he was qualified to reincarnate in either the Asura realm or the Heavenly Palace, and is currently hesitating—– should I send him here first?”


“Alright” Gu Qing Shan replied.


Bai Zhuo struck the jade disk with a flash of light.


With a resounding ‘hoh’, a male cultivator appeared before the three of them.


He looked around and doubtfully asked: “This place is…”


Gu Qing Shan made a dignified solemn expression and stepped forward, telling him: “Fellow Dao seeker, I congratulate you”


“Congratulate me?” the cultivator asked.


Gu Qing Shan clasped his hands in front of his chest to bow, then respectfully replied: “Indeed. You were originally the 33rd Heaven’s Inspiring Formidable Heaven Shaking Great Emperor, as you were worried of the lower realm’s suffering, you entered the mortal world and went through numerous Tribulations, only now completing your journey and returned”


The cultivator froze.


Gu Qing Shan continued: “Fellow Dao seeker, I hope that you will return to the Heaven realm, henceforth wielding the Heavenly Palace and watching over the Samsara”


“Wielding the Heavenly Palace… watching over the Samsara…”


The cultivator lightly muttered, then glanced around.


Faint drifting clouds.


The Heavenly Palace.


He sighed deeply, then declared in a hoarse voice: “Well! Well! Well! I, the 33rd Heaven’s Inspiring Formidable Heaven Shaking Great Emperor, have finally returned to the Heaven realm”
