Chapter 1290: Awakening the new World Technique

The Hitman Guild.

The roof.

The old man with the neatly-combed white hair was feeding the black crow on his shoulder.

Suddenly, a group of four shadows appeared just a bit behind him.

The old man didn’t turn around and simply asked:

“What has our newcomer ‘Fear Fiend King’ done today?”

One of the shadows replied: “He has taken up a Cla.s.s 3 job, and now in the process of picking his armor”

The old man muttered: “How very enthusiastic, is he perhaps looking to be promoted faster?”

Another shadow couldn’t help but ask: 『 Guild Master, we have so many ‘Unsolvable’ and ‘Unlivable’ rank Hitmen, why are you so interested in such a newcomer? 』

The old man chuckled: “I simply found myself a bit too free recently. From now on, I’ll be paying attention to every newly joined ‘Sealing’ cla.s.s. .h.i.tman as well, there’s no need to be surprised”

The four Hitmen were convinced with that.

“You’re dismissed”

『 Understood 』

The four Hitmen disappeared from the roof.

Just as they left, the old man’s gaze abruptly turned sharp.

“Who exactly are you… even I am not able to thoroughly investigate his background…”

He whispered and stroked the black crow.

The crow suddenly spoke up: 「 I can only see a piece of parchment paper written full with names of people protecting his secret 」

“Can you see them clearly?” the old man asked.

「 Impossible—— even Lords of the Void like you and I could not investigate his background, then no one in the general world would be able to even see those names 」the black crow replied.

The old man stayed silent for a while, then muttered: “Since he’s willing to work for the Hitman Guild, that proves that he’s temporarily on our side…”

The black crow continued: 「 As long as he’s on our side, just let him be, there’s no need to try and get to know him or treat him special in any way, lest he thinks that we know something, causing unnecessary strife 」

“I agree with you” the old man replied.

Meanwhile.

On the other side.

The Hitman Guild’s inventory vault.

Gu Qing Shan, Qin, and the hunchback old man were all looking at the jet-black full body armor.

It was so heavy that by simply placing it down, the ground had already sunken a bit.

“Try it on first, if you think it’s too heavy, you can exchange it with something else” Qin said, a bit hesitant.

Gu Qing Shan lightly tapped the Dragon River Heavy armor.

Dong!

Another resounding heavy noise.

The entire armor split up into several dozen components that circled around Gu Qing Shan.

In a breath’s worth of time, he had finished donning the armor.

Gu Qing Shan then put on his mask.

He walked back and forth a few steps, casually swinging his sword, seemingly unphased.

While underneath his feet, each step he took left a deep footprint on the ground.

“I already cast the load-bearing technique ahead of time—– that truly is headache-inducing” the hunchback old man looked at the ground and muttered to himself.

Gu Qing Shan stopped.

Lines of glowing text were appearing one by one on the War G.o.d UI:

[Dragon Rider Heavy armor, full armor]

[Magic resistant, Elemental resistant, Curse resistant, St.u.r.dy]

[Note: This is a high-quality armor of the Hitman Guild, crafted from precious metal, capable of resisting all magical techniques and physical attacks]

As a sword cultivator, Gu Qing Shan’s only demand was for his armor to be able to protect him.

He could handle killing the enemy by himself.

In fact, after using [Orange Sovereign] to fully absorb the power of three dragons, never mind the other aspects, his body strength alone was far incomparable to ordinary ent.i.ties.

He had also been consistently practicing the martial scripture that Lin had taught him, his control over his muscles and veins had reached an essentially perfected state.

The Dragon River Heavy armor was the best defensive armor among the four, so that was his decision.

As for things like weight and such, that wasn’t even a consideration for the dragon race’s strength.

Gu Qing Shan was pleased: “I’m happy with this full-body armor”

Suddenly, he felt his left eye itching again.

Another line of glowing text appeared:

[Due to the reserve of ample world origin power, your first World Technique has been completed]

[Please provide a certain amount of soul origin power to thoroughly activate this technique]

Gu Qing Shan instantly felt excited.

“You don’t need anything else?” Qin asked.

“Ah, no need, I want to return to my room for a bit” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Very well, then please sign here. Before you leave, please come pick up your medal from me—– it should be done soon” Qin reminded him.

“Hm”

Gu Qing Shan quickly signed his name.

He acted calm, went straight back to the Hitman Guild’s dorms, and used the golden bronze key to unlock the [21] door.

He returned to his island.

“How many Soul Points do you need?” he asked.

The War G.o.d UI replied:

[This World Technique had already been well-prepared, please spend 10,000 Soul Points to activate it]

It then silently deducted 1000 Soul Points from him.

“I’ll pay it” Gu Qing Shan replied.

New lines of glowing text appear one after another:

[In your left eye, you’ve utilized the Inner Plane Laws, the power of Primal Chaos, the four pillars of the void, the Iris Sword technique, and the origin power of a parallel world to create two abilities]

[However, during the Sacrificial Sword Dance, the past worlds have fused and completely devoured these two abilities]

[At this moment, a brand new World Technique has formed its preliminary form, initially manifested as the Mystery Iris Technique: Fog Realm Descent]

[Fog Realm Descent: When you activate this Iris Technique, you will appear briefly within the world inside your eye, then be immediately transported to another location]

[Attention: You can only warp between two worlds at most per use, and the location you transport to must be a location you’ve previously been to]

Gu Qing Shan read the glowing text and s.h.i.+vered for a bit.

This ability—–

Seems to be implicative of extraordinary things…

He silently pondered for a while, then stood up, left his room, and headed out from the Hitman Guild.

As he walked past the lobby, he came up to the reception and told Qin: “I’m about to head to my job”

“Here, your new medal is finally done——- I will accompany you for your first job preparations” Qin said.

She handed Gu Qing Shan a dark purple medal.

The surface of this medal was carved with a Blade and a sword, the two weapons crossing each other, forming the insignia of the Hitman Guild.

“I’ll trouble you” Gu Qing Shan nodded and received the medal.

Qin quickly brought him through the layers of structures and obstacles to enter the job initiation platform.

About 7-8 staff members were already here, busily doing their work.

They were making the preparations around a warp gate.

Qin raised her voice: “This year’s 692nd job, Cla.s.s 3, preparing to initiate”

“Ready!” the staff members replied.

One of them walked in front of Gu Qing Shan and quickly explained: “Half an hour ago, the target appeared at the Empire of Ruins’ n.o.bility banquet. He had just left, his s.h.i.+p currently en route towards his abode”

“The current situation is suitable for an ambush”

“We’ve marked out for best location for a hit, currently preparing the corresponding warp gate”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Give me the detailed information of the target once again”

“Yes”

The staff member replied, then lightly tapped the void of s.p.a.ce.

Right away, an old man with a gentle visage appeared in front Gu Qing Shan.

“The Prime Minister of the Empire of Ruins, Vander Sar, eradicator of 15 void species, usurper of the Empire’s royal family power, and currently the acting dictator”

“The job’s difficulty was considered to be Cla.s.s 3, the reason it is so difficult was because Vander Sar has over a dozen doppelgangers, we are unable to determine the true target”

“Furthermore, each of Vander Sar’s excursions would be accompanied by a fully-armed military force, as well as a high-levelled Anti-magic barrier. An a.s.sailant would not be able to teleport away after their ambush and can only cut open a path using their own strength”

Hearing the explanation, Gu Qing Shan replied: “I understand, we can begin”

He quickly stepped onto the warp gate and stood still.

Qin was tapping the air repeatedly, as if operating something, then asked: “Are there any issues found with the information? What about the warp formation?”

“Everything is ready” the staff members replied.

“Very well. This job shall be taken on by the Hitman with the codename ‘Fear Fiend King’, preparing to warp”

“Ready”

“Three”

“Two”

“One”

“Initiate!”

A flash of white light erupted from the warp gate, enveloping Gu Qing Shan.

Instantly, he disappeared from everyone’s eyes.

The Boundless Void’s s.p.a.ce vortex.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly appeared in the dark void.

Not too far away from him, a large wars.h.i.+p was slowly flying through.

“Very professional indeed, this is definitely a suitable spot and a suitable opportunity”

Gu Qing Shan muttered, released the Dragon Rider armor, quickly donning it.

“There are many doppelgangers…”

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

Azure Dragon Origin Hex – Binding required the other party to answer my call in order to bind them in place.

At the time, the War G.o.d UI described it as:

[Any ent.i.ty that you call out to, if they reply to you, will be bound in place. Under this state, although the other party can block your attack, they cannot evade or move]

Then, can I determine what counts as a ‘reply’?

Gu Qing Shan quickly formed his plan of action, leapt forward, and flew next to the large wars.h.i.+p.

He took a deep breath, circulating spirit energy around his entire body, and shouted: “Vander Sar! You old scoundrel, come out and fight me if you dare!”

No response came from the wars.h.i.+p.

But very quickly, the vessel turned its head, heading directly towards Gu Qing Shan.

“…This situation should also count as a reply…”

Gu Qing Shan muttered.

If this can truly be done, the ability inherited from the Thousand Dragons Ancestor wouldn’t just be the calling and responding of names, the Causality Law hidden within it can be utilized in a much broader way.

Gu Qing Shan focused his mind.

The Earth sword appeared from the void of s.p.a.ce, then turned into a streak of light that flew into the void.

Abruptly, a blinding gigantic sword image erupted from the darkness, then slashed the wars.h.i.+p.

Secret Art, [River Blocking Iron Sword]!

Boom——–

The entire wars.h.i.+p was immediately shattered into small pieces.

Numerous Professionists appeared in the void of s.p.a.ce.

“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”

“He isn’t weak!”

“Charge!”

“The Prime Minister has ordered, immediately execute him!”

“Everyone, together!”

They quickly reorganized their forces and charged towards Gu Qing Shan in a formation.

Gu Qing Shan cupped his hand together and looked towards the broken fragments of the wars.h.i.+p.

Among the numerous people, there was a single una.s.suming fellow being restrained in the void of s.p.a.ce, unable to move.

Gu Qing Shan reached forward and grabbed the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.

“Found you”

He lightly said and disappeared.
