Chapter 1809: The Bai Hua Sect Masters decisivenessTranslator: La0o9

Everything returned to normal.

Gu Qing Shan was still standing within the palace hall while numerous thoughts flashed through his mind.

He suddenly started walking toward the gates of the palace hall, opened the gates, then asked everyone outside:

Does anyone still carry a Samsara object with them?

Everyone exchanged glances.

The Progenitor Fiendess replied: Her majesty made sure to confiscate everything related to the Samsara from all of us before she let us go, how could we still possess any Samsara objects?

Gu Qing Shan then turned to Li An and asked: The Reincarnation Gloom Orchid that you gave me, where did it come from?

It was a Holy Artifact of our Profound Immortal race. Back then, when you opened our secret grotto within the Wraith realm, I only managed to obtain it after going through the arduous trials within Li An answered.

Got it

Gu Qing Shan curtly said and closed the gates again.

He returned to the palace hall and took out the Reincarnation Gloom Orchid.

The jet-black orchid was radiating a dark light within the illuminated palace hall.

This is the only Samsara object I still possess.

Shifu knew that I had the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and the Devil King Warden Rod, but she didnt know that I have this Gloom Orchid.

could someone or something be using this Gloom Orchid to monitor me?

Perhaps, the preparations for this had been in effect ever since a long time ago?

Looking down at this Gloom Orchid, Gu Qing Shans thoughts slowly became clear.

This Gloom Orchid gave me the ability to summon a single helper from within the Sequence.

But the summoned individual can only retain one ability.

That would help me, but also restrict the overall strength of my side.

Furthermore, since the entire duration of the summoning is reliant on the Gloom Orchid, anyone can easily monitor the entire situation on my side through it using a technique.

Indeed.

Very subtle.

And leaves no trace.

but regardless, Ive decided to not trust these kinds of coincidences.

Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and loudly declared:

Since Ive bid my farewell with the Samsara, I shall never return to it again, and I wont be needing a Samsara treasure

He tossed the Reincarnation Gloom Orchid into the air.

The Delimitation Divine Sword silently appeared next to his grip.

Clang!

With a loud ring, the divine sword sent a sharp sword phantom flying through the air and violently striking the Reincarnation Gloom Orchid.

The Reincarnation Gloom Orchid was sent flying, shaking off some of its pollen as it did.

Huh? I remember that you possess the [All Things Perish] Thaumaturgy, how come you couldnt destroy it? Gu Qing Shan purposely asked.

The Delimitation Divine Sword replied: I can indeed counteract all things, but this Gloom Orchid is an extremely high-grade Divine Artifact, it cant be destroyed in a single slash

What now? Gu Qing Shan asked.

Just slash it a few more times, itll break the Delimitation Divine Sword replied.

Got it

Gu Qing Shan thrust the sword forward a single time.

Layers upon layers of radiant light bloomed like a flower into an endless shroud of swords, which fully surrounded the Reincarnation Gloom Orchid.

Its over, we shall now thoroughly bid farewell to all that is related to the Samsara-

As soon as he said that.

All the sword phantoms condensed into a tornado that cut towards the Reincarnation Gloom Orchid.

In that instant.

The Reincarnation Gloom Orchid suddenly burst into rays of dark light that tore a crack into the void of space.

The Gloom Orchid trembled as it attempted to enter the crack.

-it wanted to flee!

Gu Qing Shans gaze became sharp.

[All-Encompassing Sword Realm]!

The entire palace hall, including the crack in space, swiftly faded away.

Everything was replaced by an endlessly empty world.

As the Reincarnation Gloom Orchid dashed forward, it encountered nothing and was unable to flee.

It was now trapped here.

Gu Qing Shan spoke in a completely emotionless tone:

Your time has come

Layers upon layers of sword phantoms manifested from the sword as thin strands of thread immediately scattered in every direction.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang!

The sound of numerous slashes rang out continuously.

The Reincarnation Gloom Orchid was cut into several pieces, then diced into tiny specks of dust that were blown away in the wind.

Gu Qing Shan stood still as his eyebrows gradually became unfurrowed.

Now, he no longer possessed any Samsara object.

The divine sword danced in the air and spoke:

Gu Qing Shan, you are not only extremely meticulous and careful, but your strategic mind is also second to none. Back when the Eternal Mind Seizer fled for its life, I already noticed a disturbance in the will of the Samsara

Are you saying that its wary of me? Gu Qing Shan asked.

Im just saying that if somebody is hiding in the shadows to monitor everything, they will definitely first come up with a method to get rid of or deal with someone like you the divine sword answered.

Right now, the question isnt who wants to get rid of me, but rather who I want to get rid of Gu Qing Shan replied.

He waved his hand again.

The gates of the palace hall swung open.

Everyone come in, we have something to discuss Gu Qing Shan said.

Everyone began to move into the hall one by one.

Gu Qing Shan walked up the platform and sat down on the Throne of Myriad Flowers before speaking: Right now, I want to ask everyones opinion, what does everyone think we should do from this point?

Li An replied: Of course, we need to immediately set out to investigate this Boundless Void. After all, this is a completely foreign place so we first need to find a place suitable for our cultivation and daily life

Gu Qing Shan nodded and turned to Qin Xiao Lou.

Qin Xiao Lou said: Qing Shan, Ive been looking for Xiu Xiu but couldnt find her at all, Shifu couldnt find Xiu Xiu either, could it be that shes

He didnt dare continue.

Wan Er and Qing Rou also appeared anxious, unsure of what to say.

Then, should we go back to search for Xiu Xiu? Gu Qing Shan asked.

Qing Rou sighed: Shifu was the previous Heavenly Emperor, she must know all of the Heaven realms techniques, as well as many secrets that we have no idea even exist; theres surely a reason why she didnt tell us to save Xiu Xiu

Gu Qing Shan was silent.

Thats right, there was indeed a reason, normal people wouldnt even be able to enter that casket-filled world.

Then now- what should we do? Gu Qing Shan asked.

We should fight our way back! Xiao Lou suggested.

Li An couldnt help but chuckle.

Thats unrealistic, were too feeble Wan Er shook her head and said.

Qing Rou looked straight at Gu Qing Shan and solemnly answered: Shifu had already passed her position to you, and you must already have an idea of what to do, so all we need to do is follow your orders

The Progenitor Fiendess shook her head: Thats not it, her majesty specifically ordered us to leave the Samsara and never return, we should do as she wished and explore this unknown Boundless Void instead

But Gu Qing Shan is our sect master Qing Rou refuted.

Indeed, hes the sect master so we will follow his orders, but this matter was her majestys last order, are you saying we can simply ignore it? the Progenitor Fiendess rebuked her.

The atmosphere within the palace hall was now a bit stiff.

Gu Qing Shan looked at everyone below and waved his hand dismissively:

Alright, since Im now the sect master of Bai Hua sect, Im going to officially announce that the very first thing our Bai Hua sect must do is to strengthen ourselves

After a little bit, I will help everyone here reinforce a Sequence, this way, everyones strength can at least take a step forward

Dont refuse, that will put me in a difficult situation

Gu Qing Shan then thought to himself: Supreme Sequence?

[Im here]

Bestow everyone here a low-rank Sequence Gu Qing Shan said.

[Do you understand what youre saying? Anyone whos reinforced by a low-rank Sequence right now will immediately enter hibernation within the Sequences space] the Supreme Sequence replied.

I know, thats exactly what I want to happen Gu Qing Shan affirmed.

[As you wish] the Supreme Sequence said.

Very quickly, everyone had been reinforced with a Sequence.

Qin Xiao Lou looked curiously at the void of space and asked: Qing Shan, whats this?

Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and explained: This is something that will help everyone grow stronger, but before that, you will all need to take a long nap

Invisible vortexes began to manifest from the void of space.

Everyone swiftly fell asleep and were sucked into the vortexes.

And disappeared.

The only one remaining in this world was Gu Qing Shan.

The Delimitation Divine Sword hovered in the air and asked: What are you

For their own safety, as well as for the sake of secrecy Gu Qing Shan replied.

The Reincarnation Gloom Orchid came from the Tianma.

Who can guarantee that an issue wouldnt arise from one of the Tianma?

Xiu Xiu was supposed to remain within the sect, but now shes missing.

Who could tell what exactly happened?

Rather than bringing so many people with me, Id rather place them all into a safe environment where no one can leak any information.

Furthermore, myself.

I also have a big issue on my hands.

-I offended the Eternal Mind Seizer quite severely.

Its strength surpasses any single Sequence Envoy, one might even say that it is the strongest among them all.

Once its evolution is complete, it would surely come for revenge.

At that time, who would be able to stop it?

Putting everyone into hibernation within the Sequence would actually be the safest choice.

Now that youre alone by yourself, what do you intend to do? the Delimitation Divine Sword asked.

Gu Qing Shan crossed his arms: Several of my swords have been taken by the Samsara, it also took away an especially cute gourd that I owned as well

So you want to retrieve your possessions? the divine sword asked.

Gu Qing Shan continued: Earlier, I was also beaten down, they ganged up on me until I was almost dead

Then you want to go back for revenge? the divine sword asked again.

Gu Qing Shan sighed: Just thinking about it makes me irritated, I simply cant stand not taking revenge for myself

And also, my junior sister is being held captive in a casket while my Shifu is being forced to fight people day by day, how can I flee from that?

The divine sword began to fly around him in the sky, asking with a pleased tone:

But you heard what they said earlier, your Shifu told you not to return to the Samsara, do you intend on ignoring her wishes?

Gu Qing Shan paused.

He took a deep breath and said: As I am now the sect master of Bai Hua sect, everyone in the Bai Hua sect must listen to my orders

Ive decided to return to the Samsara, so I ask you all, whos supportive of and whos against me?

The palace hall was completely empty without a single soul, so naturally nobody replied.

It was completely silent.

After waiting for a bit, Gu Qing Shan clapped his hands: Then its a unanimous decision

Were going to fight our way back!

He took out the Book of the Sea and cleared his throat: Please, I want a method to silently return to the Samsara without being discovered

The Book of the Sea angrily said: [Are you ordering take-out or something? Listen, Im the Tome of Knowledge, not the Tome of Giving-you-whatever-you-need!]

Gu Qing Shan shrugged: Knowledge is the most powerful thing in any world, the deciding factor in changing ones life and destiny, so Ive always thought that among the Four Saint Pillars, youre the most impressive Soul Artifact among them

The Book of the Sea was a bit surprised and muttered: [Your words are not wrong but you want to sneak back into the Samsara, and to not be discovered as well, that is]

Gu Qing Shan cut it off right away: The Pendant of Fire can only cheat, the Key of the Wind can open backdoors, and my coin is still hibernating, so youre the only one with an official method to return to the Samsara, arent you?

[That is not incorrect, but knowledge is also wealth, do you understand the meaning of that?] the Book of the Sea asked.

Gu Qing Shan put up three fingers and firmly said: 3000 years of wealth, Ill give it all to you

[Hm, I can sense your sincerity How very moving]

So its a deal? Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Its a deal, by the way, dont blame me if you die] the Book of the Sea replied.
