Chapter 961: Blind

Su Xue Er went silent for a while.

“You’re right”

“How ridiculous, a Card user like myself was actually being manipulated by a Card”

Su Xue Er whispered.

Seeing her regaining her fighting spirit, Anna replied with a more satisfied tone: “You can use any kind of Card to fight, but it’s better to not trust this kind of Card that simply likes to stir things up”

She threw the [Predictor of Fate] Card away.

Su Xue Er calmly watched this.

The Card flew and suddenly made a turn in the wind, returned, and stopped in front of Su Xue Er.

“Strange, it can return to you? I’ve never heard of a Card having this kind of power before” Anna said.

Su Xue Er explained: “Since long ago, I’ve already returned this Card to Gu Qing Shan, but for some reason, it still ended up with me”

“Tch, it’s not polite to senselessly stalk a girl”

Saying so, Anna manifested her black scythe of darkness.

The black flames burned.

The entire Card was sliced to pieces and scattered to the wind.

“There” Anna smiled.

Su Xue Er sighed and shook her head.

She reached out her hand and gently grabbed the void of s.p.a.ce.

The Card once again appeared in front of the two of them, intact.

Anna was stunned.

“That’s odd, my flames of death are supposedly able to burn anything”

She was in complete disbelief.

Su Xue Er put the Card away and smiled bitterly: “It’s because it knows I’m currently in the middle of a crucial advancement that it’s acting so calm, otherwise it would be urging me to search for the other Cards in its deck”

“If that’s the case, this Card is actually sentient” Anna muttered.

Seeing the [Predictor of Fate] Card that was depicting nothing but graves, Anna suddenly felt a chill for no reason.

She tried to smile: “Just ignore it, there are too many unusual and inexplicable things in the 900 million World Layers, maybe someone will be able to sever its connection to you someday”

“Hm, let’s ignore it for now, we’re going” Su Xue Er replied.

“Let’s go!”

On the other side.

Gu Qing Shan sensed an immense power raising himself up and spitting him out from another s.p.a.ce-Time.

He looked forward.

There was nothing in front of him.

It was completely dark; he couldn’t see anything.

Strange, what’s going on?

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to observe the situation.

His inner sight was released and expanded without any issue.

Through his inner sight, Gu Qing Shan ‘saw’ himself standing below a giant vortex.

—–the unending abyss of broken worlds.

Not too far above him was the floating Bramble Bird s.h.i.+p.

Gu Qing Shan once again confirmed his situation.

He started flying up.

A few moments later, he landed on the deck of the s.h.i.+p.

Lin noticed him right away as she was enjoying her drink.

“Hm? Weren’t you going to look for something? Why are you back already?”

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

Seems like the time flow between this world and the parallel world was different.

Which means, I didn’t actually leave for very long.

“I’m already done” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Sure enough, Lin also commented: “Then it seems the time flow of that parallel world was different from our world”

Lin looked at Gu Qing Shan and gradually noticed something.

“What’s wrong with your eyes? Why aren’t they moving at all?”

“I don’t know, I can’t see anything right now so I’m just using my inner sight to observe my surroundings”

Gu Qing Shan was also confused.

Lin stood up, walked up to him, and carefully observed his eyes: “You said you wanted to go complete your World Technique, but you can’t see anything after you returned… wait a minute, is your World Technique somehow related to your eye?”

“It is” Gu Qing Shan admitted.

“What a bold idea for a technique——- did you come up with it yourself?” Lin sighed and asked.

“That’s right. You know how I kept getting killed by being looked at by the ancient spirit beasts? I’ve been thinking about it for a long time until I came up with it and finally tried to complete this technique” Gu Qing Shan explained.

“Are you sure you’ve completed that technique?”

“Very sure”

“Then this can’t be helped. Even in the Bygone Era, eye techniques were synonymous with being powerful and dangerous. Not to mention, you’re creating a World Technique on the basis of an eye technique, I reckon your eye will need quite a bit of time to recover—– or will need some sort of stimulus” Lin explained.

Gu Qing Shan scowled and said: “In other words…”

“Yup, you’re blind”

Lin nodded, then as if afraid that he would be too dejected, added:

“Don’t worry, it’s just temporary, after you recover, your technique can be used again”

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Fine, it doesn’t matter if I can’t see anything for now since inner sight can replace my eyes without issues.

I’m just not very used to seeing only darkness in front of me.

—–wait a minute.

The War G.o.d UI is still here.

A line of glowing text was flas.h.i.+ng on the UI.

[Congratulations, your World Technique has been completed]

[Reminder, as this technique is still in an adaptive state, it would result in some temporary side effects]

[Special note: You’re blind]

Gu Qing Shan was speechless.

Fortunately, this is all temporary, and I can use inner sight to see, so there aren’t any big issues right now.

There’s a small issue though——-

Gu Qing Shan observed himself and found that his eyes were blankly staring straight forward as it couldn’t see anything.

After some thought, he took out a black piece of cloth, stretched it thin, and used it to cover his eyes.

Seeing him like that, Lin offered him the bottle of liquor: “Here, have a bit to drink. Alcohol promotes blood circulation so you might just recover right away”

Gu Qing Shan received the bottle and was about to drink, but felt an abrupt sense of pain that warped his expression.

Since Lin was looking at him, she immediately noticed the change on his face and felt slightly worried.

“What’s the matter?” she asked in a low tone of voice.

“It’s been a month already, today is the day for the dance” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Lin froze.

She recalled what happened at the time.

That terrifying dance——–

It truly was——

Lin turned around and walked away.

“I’m going below deck. After you’re done, tell me”

Her voice came from far away.

“Alright, I’ll be dancing at the tail of the s.h.i.+p, dancing on the deck makes for too much of an eyesore!”

Gu Qing Shan replied and swiftly dashed toward the tail of the s.h.i.+p.

The Demon Dragon power in his body was already boiling, the sense of p.r.i.c.kling pain had already started to spread all over him.

This couldn’t be helped. Although he came up with ways to get rid of the Demon Dragon, the Demon Dragon’s power vastly overwhelmed his own, he had to slowly digest it bit by bit.

——without hesitation, Gu Qing Shan took a readying stance.

To convert the Demon Dragon’s power as my own, to improve my physique and const.i.tution, the Living Being Sacrificial Dance, 1st stage, begins!

Step!

Ready!

Shake shake, shake your head, turn your hips!

One two three four,

Two two three four,

Gu Qing Shan had completely mastered this first stage of the dance, so he was able to perform every step and movement without even thinking about it.

As he carefully and meticulously danced, he was soon soaked in sweat.

Following his dancing, notifications occasionally popped up on the War G.o.d UI.

[Your resistance against frost had been improved]

[Another strand of the Demon Dragon’s power had been converted; your physique has become slightly more robust]

[Your reaction speed has been improved slightly]

[The functions of your kidney have been improved]

Gu Qing Shan continued to dance tirelessly.

At the same time.

On the other side.

Lin had just gone below deck.

Last time, I was instantly sliced apart and killed.

It was such a terrifying power.

Lin shook her head, trying not to recall the pain of being cut into pieces at the time.

She was feeling a bit traumatized by that dance.

But strangely, I’ve actually forgiven the dancer.

Wait.

Lin cautiously looked around.

—-that’s odd, where’s Laura?

Lin looked around the cabin below the s.h.i.+p but still couldn’t find Laura anywhere.

She paused, then recalled something Laura told her while they were chatting.

“The cabin of the s.h.i.+p can lead below deck from this direction, and lead to the tail of the s.h.i.+p on the other side—— the tail of the s.h.i.+p is where I keep all my snacks, so if big sis has some free time, you can grab some if you like, all the snacks I collect are nothing but delicious!”

This was Laura’s own words.

Oh no!

Gu Qing Shan is dancing at the tail of the s.h.i.+p!

Lin’s heart sank.

At the time, it was because I had the Abyssal ring and the Eternal characteristic that I was able to revive myself after being cut apart.

But Laura——

Lin didn’t have much time to think and hurriedly ran towards the cabin of the s.h.i.+p.

Sure enough, a small door wasn’t fully closed at the back of the cabin.

Lin gritted her teeth and went in.

Right away, she saw Gu Qing Shan performing that terrifying dance.

Meanwhile, Laura sat on a chair next to him, clapping her hands.

“Ehehe, big bro, your dancing is so good!”

“Do that one just now again!”

Following the rhythm, Gu Qing Shan performed the same dance step again.

Laura uttered in surprise.

“Whoa, that seemed really hard! Big bro is so cool!”

Following her praise, a soft, faint light emerged from the void of s.p.a.ce moved onto her body.

“Huh? What’s this?”

Laura curiously wondered.

She randomly waved her hand towards the outside of the s.h.i.+p.

A cl.u.s.ter of fiery light emerged from her palm, went into the void and accurately hit the corpse of a floating airs.h.i.+p.

Instantly, the corpse of the s.h.i.+p turned transparent and vanished into thin air from within the s.p.a.ce vortex.

“Whoa, such an impressive ability, are you granting it to me? Thank you so much!”

Laura was speaking to the void of s.p.a.ce.

Lin blankly stared at this.

——-the difference in treatment between them was so great that she actually felt hurt.

Lin didn’t say a single word, turned around to get back inside the cabin and slammed the door shut.

A few moments later.

Gu Qing Shan finally finished the dance.

As he was about to rest, a sprite of light emerged out from between his eyebrows and turned into the bald old man.

——–the strongest Combatant from the Bygone Era!

He had reappeared!

[Long time no see, little one] the bald old man told him.

Gu Qing Shan looked at and greeted him: “Why did you suddenly appear?”

[Because of you, of course. You’ve done well to perform the 1st stage of the dance to this degree, the Demon Dragon’s outer layer of power has already been fully absorbed]

“Then, what now?”

[I came out to inform you that you now need to start learning the 2nd stage of the Dance]

“Sure, do I begin right now?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The bald old man had a serious expression on his face: [Not right now. For the upcoming period of time, you need to eat a bit more and prepare your stamina, only after a certain chance appears would you be able to learn the 2nd stage of the Dance]

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask: “I need to wait for a chance? Is the 2nd stage of the Dance really that hard?”

[Exactly, because it is a group dance]
