Chapter 247: Going alone

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader: AryaAs Bai Hua Fairy tossed the sword back, her expression returned to normal.


Then she said: “I’ve talked with Gong Sun Zhi, when you’re ready to break through to Golden Core, go find him. He’ll arrange the necessary formations to protect you until you finish your breakthrough”


“Remember, you have to live, got it?”


Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.


“Shifu, you also need to survive” he said.


“Don’t worry, I’m not going to die that easily” Bai Hua Fairy replied fearlessly.


Although she was smiling, the look in her eyes contained nothing but anxiety and confusion.


It’s the first time Gu Qing Shan has ever seen Bai Hua Fairy make such an expression ever since he knew her.


A while later.


Gu Qing Shan returned to his own tent.


Right as he sat down, he heard the collective voice of numerous cultivators ringing around the camp: “”“We bid the Saints good luck!”””


He quickly went outside and looked towards the sky.


The three Saints were leaving.


The direction they were leaving towards was the space vortex behind Demon Cloud River.


Gu Qing Shan could only see Bai Hua Fairy’s back from afar.


The three Saints were flying extremely quickly, enough that their backs also couldn’t be seen any more after a few moments.


Gu Qing Shan stood there silently and didn’t return into his tent for a while.


Suddenly, the War God UI started to light up.


A flash of light appeared on the War God UI, turning into lines of big red letters.


[Detected user to have triggered a special story scenario]


[Current conditions fit the Quest trigger requirements]


[Initiating Destiny Quest]


The Destiny Quest finally triggered!


Gu Qing Shan quickly took a look at the details.


[Destiny Quest: Decisive Battle (2)]


[Breaking the chains of fate, changing the flow of the world, user Gu Qing Shan has triggered the Destiny Quest]


[Quest description: The cultivation world is about to advance to Shen Wu world, what follows will be remembered as a great historical war ———–but our Quest has nothing to do with eliminating the demons]


[Quest objective: Why has Shen Wu world not been completely taken over by the demons? How did the cultivation world’s humanity found out about its existence? Please seek out the truth of this world]


[As this is an exceptionally dangerous battle, to ensure that the user does not die prematurely, the Quest reward War God Title has been granted early]


[If the Quest fails, the Quest reward will be rescinded, the user will not be able to increase their cultivation for 3 years]


Reading through the Quest description and objective, Gu Qing Shan was stunned.


Shen Wu world isn’t completely taken over by the demons?


This is a completely new finding that changes the entire truth they’ve known.


Perhaps that’s correct, that’s why Ning Yue Xi and Gong Sun Zhi were able to locate it.


But then, the Quest wants him to use this as a basis to search for the deeper hidden truth.


Gu Qing Shan felt like he was suddenly dropped in a completely new environment full of mysteries, not knowing where to even start.


“What should I do now?”


While he was thinking, suddenly the War God UI popped up two new notifications.


[This is a completely new world; the War God System will not be able to predict what will happen at all]


[Please be prepared for anything and everything, hold your weapon tight and be ready to take on this completely unpredictable future]


Right after that, the War God UI flashed again.


The second flash!


The [War God Thaumaturgy] button lit up, following it, the crystal ball that had stayed silent for all this time finally started to let out a dark light.


Gu Qing Shan’s expression changed.


More text appeared in the middle of the War God UI.


[Golden Core realm Thaumaturgy Randomizer Quest has officially begun]


[For the next 7 days, the more Quests you complete, the more chances you have to draw different Thaumaturgy]


[Note 1: Borrowing power from the Destiny Quest, the War God UI will do its best to support you with investigating this unknown world]


[Note 2: The unique power inside the crystal ball will be your best support]


What’s going on, the System isn’t usually this flexible.



Gu Qing Shan was a bit speechless from seeing that.


If the Destiny Quest is an official order from the authorities, then the Thaumaturgy Quest is like the receptionist personally reminding him to be careful.


It’s like the War God UI is using the Thaumaturgy Quest to help him in a roundabout way.


Could it be, the System felt something amiss?


Gu Qing Shan read through the Thaumaturgy Quest description.


This time, the Quest isn’t a single Quest, but rather a Quest chain.


He has to quickly complete as many Quests as possible in the next 7 days.


He can already see it, the requirement for completing the Quests will become harder and harder!


7 days.


Which means it’s already starting.


Gu Qing Shan quickly looked at the crystal ball in the middle of the War God UI.


It says this crystal ball is the conduit for gathering some sort of unique power.


A thin veil of mist appeared inside the crystal ball.


As he looked at it, lines of glowing text started to appear on the outside of the crystal ball.


[The first Quest has appeared]


[Quest name: Prove your worth]


[Quest description: The System is feeling a unique existence observing you. But do not worry, as the observation isn’t malicious, and it isn’t towards you alone. From the moment you enter the next world, your every move will be under constant surveillance. Do everything you can to show your talents, only when you appear brilliant enough will you be qualified to finish this task]


[Quest objective: Do everything you can in Shen Wu world to show off your talents, all the way until you pick up a weapon]


[Quest reward: Connected Minds]


[Note: If you’re trash, no one will bother looking at you for a second time]


“I have to show off? And pick up a weapon?” Gu Qing Shan didn’t understand at all.


And the Quest reward is called [Connected Minds]


———that’s all it says, there’s no other description.


What kind of weird Quest is this, what does picking up something has to do with the war?


And I have to appear bright enough as well?


Gu Qing Shan has never seen such an obscure Quest ever before.


The Destiny Quest requires finding out the truth of the world, while the Thaumaturgy Quest triggered right after it.


May be, the System wants to use these two Quests to tell me something?


Reading the description again, Gu Qing Shan only felt more confused.


Outside the tent, voices and noises came.


The sounds of hurried footsteps and large weapons of war moving rumbled, mixed together with the voices of cultivators chatting and discussing.


Generals were yelling, calling out their subordinates to gather.


The hustling and bustling mix of noises and voices created for a picture of the chaos right before a storm arrives, both urgent and hurried.


Then came the sounds of airships taking off and flying away.


Another squad must have left.


Qin Xiao Lou came in and bid him farewell for now.


Qin Xiao Lou’s task isn’t exactly light, as a person well-versed in all of the 6 arts, he’s required for almost every necessity of the frontline camps.


The only thing he had easier compared to other cultivators is that he doesn’t need to go out to kill enemies.


Very quickly, the brothers bid their farewell and Qin Xiao Lou left on his airship together with his squad.


While Gu Qing Shan stayed in his own tent.


He has no troops to command, no superiors, and no clear task to do.


He can do anything he likes without anyone stopping him, it’s fine even if he decides to stay right here at the backline.


There’s no restrictions and no punishments.


He already received orders from the three Saints themselves, allowing him to freely do as he likes.


Shen Wu world is too dangerous, enough that a Saint like Bai Hua Fairy could feel her life being threatened in this war.


Bai Hua Fairy hoped that he’ll be able to save his own life, hoping that he’ll keep on living and continue keeping the Bai Hua sect lineage alive.


Gu Qing Shan slowly closed his eyes, stayed silent for a while, then finally started to smile.


In the tent, his lonely voice came.


“How pitiful, I didn’t even fear the ultimate weapon the likes of the Demon Lord, yet I would have to stay behind here at the backline of the war?”


“I am Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan, and it’s been a while since I last walked the battlefield”


He tapped his Inventory Bag, releasing the light golden full General armor set, quickly donning it on himself.


“Die? No one will die, not Shifu and definitely not me, as long as I’m there”


He said that with a very light tone of voice.


Wearing his silver mask, grabbing the Earth Sword from midair, Gu Qing Shan quickly walked out.


Not too long after, his airship took off, crossing Demon Cloud River, heading towards the space vortex.
