Chapter 1410: Short reunion
An airs.h.i.+p floated in the air.
In the cabin of the s.h.i.+p, white fog suddenly manifested.
Gu Qing Shan and Lin both appeared.
“Who is this?” Lin looked at Chen Fifth and cautiously asked.
Gu Qing Shan nodded to Chen Fifth.
Chen Fifth disappeared as Shannu returned to sword form and to Gu Qing Shan’s hand.
Lin lightly sighed and quickly told him: “I’m currently afflicted by countless wraith hexes and the Wraith realm’s defensive Causality Law, I can only suppress it temporarily, but it will erupt sooner or later—– I can’t remain here for too long!”
“I’ll help you dispel them” Gu Qing Shan replied.
“You know how to solve wraith hexes?” Lin asked.
“A little bit, but you’re currently afflicted by over a dozen tracking techniques and a large-scale Causality Law, so I won’t be able to solve them all in a short period of time——- can you endure some pain?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
Lin scowled and coldly replied: “We haven’t seen each other for just a few days and you’re already looking down on me?”
Gu Qing Shan said nothing else.
He drew the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and said: “Endure it”
Lin looked at him without moving.
The sword flashed.
Lin was stabbed.
“Ah… are you preparing to kill me?” she asked, still scowling.
“No, this is the method to dispel all your hexes—- Shannu!” Gu Qing Shan replied.
The sword abruptly vibrated as numerous dark and light shadows emerged from Lin’s body, shattered, then disappeared.
[Law Breaker]!
Lin brushed off some cold sweat on her face and leisurely said:
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone dispel a hex like this”
Before she even finished, Gu Qing Shan applied some force to pull back and withdrew the sword from Lin’s body.
Putting the Six Paths Great Mountain sword away, he formed a healing hand seal and placed his hand on Lin’s wound.
Lin took some time to examine herself and sure enough found that the countless hexes, as well as the Wraith realm’s defensive Causality Law, had all vanished.
She looked down at Gu Qing Shan’s hand on her body, lightly smirking as she asked: “Enjoying yourself?”
Gu Qing Shan kept his head down without looking up at her and solemnly said: “The wound was deep, wait a bit longer while I heal you”
Seeing how awkward he was acting, Lin suddenly chuckled.
After the kiss, I accepted the Eternal Abyss’ mission to enter the Wraith realm.
Who could have expected for Gu Qing Shan to already be here!?
“You aren’t doubting me?” Gu Qing Shan suddenly asked.
Lin smiled: “That punch of yours looked violent, but you used the martial scripture I taught you”
She looked at Gu Qing Shan and replied: “The people of the Bygone Era have all either died or disappeared through the Reality Gate, I’m the only one left”
“Ah, I see” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Lin continued: “Little man, I really didn’t expect to see you again in the Wraith realm—— how did you get in?”
Her body was tall and lanky, around the same height as Gu Qing Shan, so she draped her arm around Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder and played with his hair.
—–we’ve already kissed, what’s the use of acting aloof or embarra.s.sed?
Gu Qing Shan awkwardly replied: “You can read my mind, I thought you would have known about my situation already? Also, you still have the Fate ability [Existence], so why were you still discovered by the wraiths?”
Lin didn’t answer and instead replied:
“The barrier protecting the Wraith realm was even more powerful than we had all imagined, all the new Abyssal forms who had attempted to infiltrate had already been captured and killed, only I managed to break through and enter”
“Why were you the only one who managed to enter?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“Because I was the strongest” Lin replied.
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Lin was no longer the Abyssal Fate Weaver from the past, when she left the Death G.o.d’s Inheritance Site, she had already obtained an even stronger Abyssal form.
Her current power far surpa.s.sed the time of their compet.i.tion during the Age of Old!
Lin took out a new ring and held it in her hand.
“The Wraith realm’s barrier works like this——”
“The stronger you are, the more damage you’ll receive when entering the Wraith realm, so I dismissed my Abyssal form, returned to human form, then further sealed my strength to its lowest state, only then was I barely able to enter”
Gu Qing Shan realized what had happened and said: “Then, all of your abilities are currently sealed?”
Lin replied: “Indeed, even so, I was afflicted by the Causality Law tracking technique, surrounded by countless wraiths as soon as I entered this world. I didn’t even get the chance to release my power once again”
Gu Qing Shan sighed: “I already knew that the Wraith realm wasn’t an easy place to force your way into, but I didn’t realize it would be this difficult”
Lin smiled and continued: “If not for your sword earlier, I would most likely have been in a constant state of pursuit, ultimately falling at the hands of the wraiths”
She took a step back, then put the ring on her finger.
“And now, it’s time I release my Abyssal form and recover my power”
Following her statement, supernatural phenomena began to manifest.
Clouds of flames bloomed one by one around Lin’s body giving off illuminating light.
Standing in the flaming clouds she muttered: “As witnessed by the Abyss, by my thoughts of the past, reforge my present combat form”
Without any sound, she seemed to have completely changed.
The clouds of flames drifted around Lin’s body, manifesting into a bright red battle armor engraved with numerous unknown gems.
The light of flames continued to beat, by the time they finally disappeared into Lin’s body, they manifested as a total of 12 layered angel wings.
“A 12-winged Seraph…” Gu Qing Shan blankly muttered.
——-so the Eternal Abyss had created a suit of angel armor, capable of turning Lin into a seraph!
Having finished donning her new form, Lin glanced at Gu Qing Shan.
Her gaze slowly changed.
“So, quite a few things have happened huh, and you only returned to this moment in time by using [Distortion]” she sighed.
——-she had regained the ability to read Gu Qing Shan’s thoughts.
“That’s right, to fight against the Wraith realm, I couldn’t afford being trapped in the Temporal Oasis, having no choice but to make early preparations” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Lin stayed silent for a bit before saying: “I have to go”
“Go?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.
“Yeah, the Eternal Abyss discovered something unusual, so unusual that it might be even more important than the war itself”
Lin lightly muttered: “In the country of angels, there exists a Seraph who had been sealed away for countless years, she was the most powerful combative angel, so having felt the changes in the world of the angels, she had finally reawakened”
Gu Qing Shan was startled and asked: “Did you just use [Existence]?”
Lin glanced at him, then nodded: “From now on, I’ve become a Seraph, other than yourself, every living being in the infinite worlds will recognize that an ent.i.ty like myself exists in the world of the angels”
“Then, only those who had witnessed you using [Existence] wouldn’t be fooled?”
“Correct”
Lin placed something in Gu Qing Shan’s hand, stroked his face a bit, then explained: “The Eternal Abyss believes that the Wraith realm isn’t simply a world. If it cannot find out the true secrets of the Wraith realm, the Eternal Abyss would never be able to defeat it”
Gu Qing Shan looked down, only to see that it was a pocket watch.
The minute hand of the watch was constantly moving.
Suddenly, it gave off a clear ‘ching kaling’ chime.
Lin said: “It’s time, I have to go now”
Gu Qing Shan quickly asked: “Wait a moment, then what should I do now?”
Lin smiled and replied: “You? Just do the same thing you did back during the Age of Old”
She held another pocket watch in her hand and lightly pressed it.
Instantly, the world around them completely disappeared.
Holy aria, fresh flowers, a water fountain, palaces, and various other scenes typical of an angelic world appeared one after another.
Lin took a step backwards and entered the angelic scene.
She looked at Gu Qing Shan and finally told him:
“The pocket watch was something given to me by the Eternal Abyss, most likely, there are some secrets to it as well”
“I need to become a Seraph now, take care of yourself, after a while, we will definitely meet again”
Hoh——
Lin disappeared.
The scene of the angel world vanished.
Gu Qing Shan found himself still standing in the airs.h.i.+p.
He looked down.
The pocket watch in his hand was still ticking forward.
