TN: Changed [Mystery of All Creatures Equal] to [Mystery of All Beings Equal] in all previous chapters and from now on, the meaning itself doesnt change much, but it makes a difference much, much later on

This is still an unresolved problem without solution, the 7-colored spear will completely seal off the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, no power in Huang Quan would dare to show up to the surface at all the small white bird spoke in despair.

The Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook on the other hand was excited: Although weve lost access to the surface for a short while, but all the demons that took over Huang Quan have died, this is a very beneficial exchange

Gu Qing Shan smiled: Thats right, since the Divinities of Huang Quan have also all died, this is profitable for us

Shannu also smiled a bit and said: Theres another good thing about this, from now on, not only will the Heaven realm not dare to send any reinforcements to Huang Quan, but the demons will be the same as well

She looked at Gu Qing Shan and lightly curtsied.

My apologies, Ive misunderstood you. Who knew that you really did find a solution, not to mention you dare to go against the 7-colored spear yourself

No worries, no worries Gu Qing Shan quickly replied.

He sat on the ground for a while before regaining his strength.

What do we do next? Shannu asked.

Gu Qing Shan stood up and spoke: With the 7-colored spear up there, no demons will try to enter Huang Quan for the time being

And so, well be able to focus on solving the problem of hell

He looked at the tunnel entrance to hell.

A thick black-colored light was covering the entrance.

All 18 layers of hell are behind this.

The Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook sighed: I have you say, what you did was brilliant, but the situation in hell is already irreversible

Gu Qing Shan was tense as he heard that and hurriedly asked: Why?

Of the 18 layers of hell, 17 of them have already picked out the strongest, the only one that still isnt done is the Blood River Hell

Once a strongest dead has been selected in the Blood River Hell, the Devil King Warden Rod will form a barrier to trap the 18 winners inside and commence a fight to the death

Only the final dead that survived will become the Devil King, capable of controlling the 18 layers of hell

They will all escape Huang Quan and move to the human realm

The weapons said nothing as they heard that.

Shannu looked back at Gu Qing Shan in hope: When the 18 layers of hell escape from Huang Quan, the world of Huang Quan will start to collapse, the only solution is if the human realm is able to destroy them all in a short time. If you can, they will all be forced to return to Huang Quan

Gu Qing Shan smiled bitterly: The human world couldnt even handle a single hell, let alone 18 of them

Shannu froze.

Then there really is no hope.

Gu Qing Shan continued: The first reason why I ran down to hell is to get away from the spears attacks. The second, is to attack hell into hell itself

Shannu looked around.

Almost every Huang Quan weapons were gathered here.

She asked: You want us to go and defeat the dead competing for the title of strongest?

The Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook denied the thought: Its useless. Now that the Devil King selection was about to begin, even if we kill all the dead, the last one remaining would still be picked out to become the strongest dead of the Blood River Hell

Meaning, nothing would be solved by doing that.

The weapons all silently sighed.

Who said youll go kill them? Gu Qing Shan shook his head before continuing, Ill be the one to do it

You? Shannu opened her eyes wide, unable to believe what she just heard: You want to enter the selection of the Devil King?

Correct

Gu Qing Shan cracked his neck a bit and answered.

Its impossible, youre a living soul, the Devil King Warden Rod wont recognize you Shannu told him.

Gu Qing Shan looked over at the small white bird and asked: Which of the 7 leaders belong in the Blood River Hell?

None. They all belong to a different hell the small white bird replied.

Then theres no need for you to go kill a dead. Just help me capture a human dead back here, Ill be able to use him but quickly!

Gu Qing Shan going against the 7-colored spear by himself earlier has given him a bit of credibility with the weapons, so now that he asked for that, the weapons all quickly moved.

Flying through the tunnel to hell, they quickly entered the first layer of hell the Blood River Hell.

In the Blood River Hell.

Dozens of Huang Quan weapons suddenly appeared and scattered.

They decided on a young dead human and captured him.

What are you! What are you doing!? the dead human screamed in horror.

He was only a normal dead, nothing he did couldve gained the attention of so many Huang Quan weapons.

Stop talking, just come with us! the small white bird ordered.

The dead human was quickly brought out of the Blood River Hell by the weapons.

At the entrance to hell.

Gu Qing Shan sliced off one of his arms and consoled him: Dont worry, youre actually saving the world right now

Iss - is there nothing else? the young dead human asked as his cold sweat flowed.

He wasnt unconscious because of the pain.

It seems like being tortured so much in hell has caused the pain threshold for the dead to increase as well.

Thats right, youre free to leave Gu Qing Shan answered.

The young dead human howled as he rushed back into the entrance to hell.

He doesnt want to have to go through that ever again.

Thank you, I think youll probably gain some Merit for that! Gu Qing Shan shouted to him from behind.

Hearing that, the young human dead stopped.

He tried calling: Merit Accountant Machine

A bright number appeared above his head.

[0012]

Its positive!

When his Merit becomes positive, it means his sins have been absolved!

From now on, he no longer have to suffer the torture of hell and can leave to reincarnate!

The young dead human was surprised at first, then he started to shout from joy.

Right after that, he seemed to have remembered something and ran back to where Gu Qing Shan was.

What is it? Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

The young dead human looked at him full of desires: I still have another arm, can you give me some more Merit?

Gu Qing Shan didnt know what to say: Escort him away

The weapons came and pulled him away.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head and held the arm in hand, using [Mystery of All Beings Equal].

A few lines of glowing text scrolled through the War God UI.

[Analyzing the mystery of the deads composition]

[Please use 1000 Soul Points to fully comprehend the Laws behind the existence of the dead and temporarily become a dead in essence]

Reading that, Gu Qing Shan checked his remaining Soul Points.

Turning into the Sharp-boned Demon from before costed him 1000 Soul Points, then another 1000 for the Chao Yin sword to refine the Forgetting River water, plus hes been constantly using [Even a sea of suffering will pass], so he only has a bit of 1000 Soul Points left.

[Remaining Soul Points: 1003/300]

This was the last chance he has to use [Mystery of All Beings Equal]

But Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to use it!

Very quickly, thanks to the [Mystery of All Beings Equal], he turned into a dead.

Hm, this physique isnt too different from my own

Gu Qing Shan moved his body a bit, muttering: Now for the second step, cuckoos takes over nest (1)

The weapons were all flabbergasted.

Hes turned into a dead! Hes turned into a dead! the small white bird cried out desperately.

Why are you crying? Shannu looked at it in confusion.

Hes dead! the small white bird replied.

Thats not the case. Hes using a technique thats deeply related to the mysterious of the world to change the essence of his composition the Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook commented in awe.

Gu Qing Shan said nothing.

He was feeling a strange sense of something calling him.

After a bit of silence, Gu Qing Shan started to digest the information received from this summon.

It was the Devil King Warden Rod calling out to all the powerhouses of the 18 layers of hell to participate in the selection of the Devil King.

Gu Qing Shans tense heart could finally relax.

It seems the Devil King Warden Rod had accepted him as a dead.

Theres still a chance!

Gu Qing Shans hovered, wanting to fly into the tunnel to hell.

What a minute! Shannu called him back.

What is it? I have to hurry, the only place left for me to get a slot and participate is the Blood River Hell Gu Qing Shan was a bit confused.

This competition, the slightest mistake will result in your death, are you absolutely sure? Shannu asked.

Gu Qing Shan laughed: The human realm have existed for so many years, having given birth to four different Eras, as well as other creatures in the Samara, I actually want to see if I can find a decent opponent here

Shannus had a complicated expression before she lowered body and curtsied: I really did misunderstand you, because I didnt know you are able to do such a thing

But theres a problem that you probably dont know about

Gu Qing Shan stopped and seriously asked: What problem is that?

You are a sword cultivator

Indeed

Where are your swords?

Gu Qing Shans mind moved a bit.

The Earth sword and Chao Yin sword both appeared from thin air.

In front of the many Huang Quan weapons here, the two of them pridefully circled around Gu Qing Shan.

What a good sword!

Not too shabby

Tch

The weapons all praised them.

But Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook sighed.

Even Shannu was shaking her head.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised: Whats the matter?

Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook explained: All dead belong to hell

Hm?

Shannu continued: The dead have to find materials in hell in order to craft their own weapons, only then will the Laws of Huang Quan and the Devil King Warden Rod recognize them

If you use a weapon outside of hell to battle, you will be disqualified

The Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook followed up: Every dead in there have spent hundreds, even thousands of years to craft their weapons, ensuring their position and reign in hell

But your weapons cannot be brought into hell, and theres no time to make a new one Shannu explained.

I cant use my swords? Thats a bit troublesome Gu Qing Shan scowled.

How could a sword cultivator fight without a sword?

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the weapons and asked: Can I use you?

The weapons all shook their heads: Although we are weapons of Huang Quan, we werent born in hell, so its not possible

Shannu stood out: Use me

As she said that, all the other weapons turned quiet.

Silence, all around.

Then Shannu continued as her voice rises: The Grand Tie Wei Mountain is hell itself, and I am created from its Law

Thus I am also a weapon made in the 18 layers of hell

Its not against the rules to use me

Saying so, her body flashed before going into the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.

The Six Paths Great Mountain sword hovered over in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Shannus voice came from inside the sword.

The treasures before that you gave helped my recovery greatly, but not only did I not repay you, I even forced you to swear such an oath. This goes against my conscience

Now Im willing to fight alongside you, using this to show the sincerity of my apology

Shannu spoke every word slowly and clearly.

Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan took hold of the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.

Unlike before, this time when he grabs the sword, he feels a coolness from the metal in his hand, as well as an ease of when he swings the sword, like it was an extension of his arm.

This was because the sword spirit has recognized him.

A few lines of glowing text scrolled through the War God UI.
