“Bygone Daemon, Calamity Dragon of Annihilation, [Absolute]”

“Remember well, that is the name of humanity’s strongest Soul Artifact of war”

The black dragon uttered a horrendous roar, followed by its body erupting into tens of thousands of resounding noises.

The skull woman flew up to them and asked in a harrowing tone:                                                                                                                   Leng Qian

Chen, what did you do? Jl

“I merely invoked the secret activation key, his entire body is now undergoing evolution and reforging at a molecular level, so we’ll hear a lot of noisesbut it’ll be better soon” Leng Qian Chen explained.

The skull woman turned to look at the black dragon.

Only to see that his entire body had disassembled itself into a mass of rolling fog that eclipsed over the peak of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain.

– – -even this mass of black fog was undergoing incomparable changes, still continuously making an almost melodious barrage of sounds.

The 36 Divine Artifacts stood still in the middle of the air, silently observing this as it occurred.

r What now? J one of the Divine Artifacts asked.

r We use spell-based attacks——- hurry and strike enough times to turn it into a Huang Quan artifact, or the Samsara Heavenly Tome will begin to consume us soon! J the Forgetting River Soul Flaying hook called out.

In the sky, the singular page of the Heavenly Tome was gradually but visibly forming some sort of resonance with the Huang Quan realm.

It was being integrated into the Huang Quan Artifact Clash!.

“Attack!”

Attack that mass of black fog and turn it into a Huang Quan Artifact!

The Divine Artifacts began to act once again.

As soon as Gu Qing Shan heard the name, his consciousness fell into a sort of stupor.

He could only see the Supreme Sequence’s messages:

[Warning!]

[Your body is currently disassembling and reassembling itself into a new form to adapt to the Samsara’s war]

[The memory system within your body has been activated]

[The other half of your secret key is awakening, you will soon see him- – – ]

His surroundings disappeared.

A world within his memory has appeared.

Gu Qing Shan found himself now standing within a magnificent city of metal and iron.

A bald old man was standing across the road while silently staring straight at him.

It was the strongest Combatant of the Bygone Era!

He has once again appeared in this world.

“Long time no see, I didn’t think I’d see you again here of all places” Gu Qing Shan said.

The bald old man gently chuckled and replied: “And I didn’t think you’d be able to actually reach this point, seems like the half of the key I left would be useful after all-  follow me”

The two of them followed a path, one behind the other.

“Where are you leading me to?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“I know you have a lot of questions, but wait a moment, I need to fulfill my last dying wish” the bald old man replied.

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t say anything more to that.

The old man led Gu Qing Shan through a series of winding streets, eventually reaching a narrow street alley.

“We’re here” the old man said.

As Gu Qing Shan turned to look, he saw that it was a small shop, from which a delicious aroma can be smelled even from a distance. The side walls in front of the shop were blackened from the smoke and oil, the seats that could be seen from the front can hardly be called clean, but there was a long queue of increasingly more customers waiting to be served. increasingly more customers waiting to be served.

Nobody made any noise, as if they were all used to this busy scene.

The old man quickly arrived at the tail of the queue before turning around to speak: ‘We’re going to queue up here—— things can be discussed as we stand in line”

Gu Qing Shan swiftly followed.

“This place looks like a noodle shop” he commented.

“That’s right, this soy sauce beef noodle shop was the most perfect dining experience of the Bygone Era, it is also the dying wish of my last strand of consciousness. I made sure to retain this memory just to manifest it now and enjoy it one last time” the bald old man explained.

“Even the senses of smell, taste, and touch, can be manifested this way?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Of course, our level of technology was quite decent, otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to create the Ultimate Soul Artifact of War” the old man replied.

“Really? Then I really have to give it a try” Gu Qing Shan said.

The strongest Combatant of the Bygone Era actually left the data of a random noodle shop, within the codes of the Ultimate Soul Artifact of War’s last evolution.

But Gu Qing Shan didn’t feel surprised by it at all.

The bald old man was an existence that managed to not only create the

Ultimate Soul Artifact of War, but also managed to find and leave the Living Being Sacrificial Dance behind, a top-level inheritance even within the Boundless Void.

The last dying wish of an existence of that caliber far exceeds billions of unfamiliar worlds.

The queue slowly moved forward.

And so did Gu Qing Shan and the bald old man.

“I’m somewhat experienced with food, if I can say so myself” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“Of course, ever since I taught you the Dance, I’d occasionally retrieve information from the outside world, so I’ve seen all of the food you’ve cooked” the bald old man replied.

“Then, if I didn’t choose to kill Demon Dragon in the beginning, you wouldn’t have appeared?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Yup. I already realized that there was something wrong with Demon Dragon at that time, so I imprisoned it in the Abyssal Prison. In name, it was there to keep watch over Lin’s abyssal form—– but in fact, it was also to keep them both imprisoned” the bald old man explained.

“No wonder Demon Dragon felt so much hate towards you” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“In the end, all of us in the Bygone Era eventually headed towards destruction. I originally wanted to destroy the Demon Dragon weapon as well, but it was still the greatest masterpiece of our entire civilization, so I decided to leave it, as well as my personal inheritance”

The bald old man continued: “If somebody was truly willing to kill the Demon Dragon even while knowing that they’ll be cursed for eternity, then I would pass down to them the final hope”

“Are you talking about the Dance?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Not just that”

“What else was there?”

“Just knowing the true name wasn’t enough to trigger the evolution, my permission was also required”

“No wonder you said ‘half of the key’ earlier. Does Demon Dragon know about this?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.

“Nobody does” the old man smirked shrewdly.

– – – – – -not only was the true name required, but also the personal permission of the bald old man; only then would a Soul Artifact of War of this significance be allowed to evolve.

And since countless years ago, the old man had already secretly made all the preparations for this day.

“It couldn’t be helped. Even in near-death I wouldn’t leave the Demon Dragon Soul Artifact to any of our enemies in the Boundless Void” the old man concluded.

“The enemy… of the Byzone Era humans. do you mean the Soul Shrieker?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“No, it was only one of many” the old man replied.

“Who else was there?” Gu Qing Shan pried further.

The bald old man calmly explained: “Many disasters occurred during our era, including the corrosion of various Sequences and the attacks of unspeakable Void entities… All in all, we never really got a chance to rest and were constantly fighting…”

Both of them then went quiet.

After a long while, Gu Qing Shan spoke again: “Your era… never had even a moment to rest?”

“Indeed, disasters and calamities can be found anywhere within the Boundless Void, we never knew for sure where danger would strike next, never having any piece of mind, constantly on the run from one unknown entity to another” the bald old man said.

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

He then recalled how the Bygone Era humans used the Grand Tie Wei

Mountain as an isolating wall, wanting to use that to protect their civilization.

But in the end…

” – –There should at least be a reason, right?” Gu Qing Shan said.

“We were descendants of the Human realm, our heritage was the complete knowledge of the Human realm’s civilization… when we stopped to think about it, we realized those disasters were trying to thoroughly destroy us, wanting to make sure that humanity’s heritage wouldn’t be passed on” the bald old man replied.

Gu Qing Shan fell silent again.

That’s very reminiscent of the Heavenly Emperor’s style.

While never acting directly, the Heavenly Emperor has made sure everything would proceed in accordance to his wish.

And he’s never failed at it.

The bald old man smiled sorrowfully, then continued:

“We realized that we couldn’t continue to call ourselves ‘descendants of the Samsara’s Human realm’ any longer, as that would be more dangerous than it’s worth… but at the same time, having been born humans, our knowledge and skills must be passed on to our descendants. Because if we didn’t pass it on, our civilization will be like it has never existed at all, our descendants would lose the power to protect themselves, powerless to do anything but be massacred by the entities of the Boundless Void”

Gu Qing Shan commented: “The one thing worth celebrating is that you all managed to make your way to the Gate at the bottom of the Eternal Abyss and escaped this Boundless Void”

“No, all of us died” the bald old man firmly said.

Gu Qing Shan was shocked.

The bald old man continued: “According to my observations later on, fatal danger lied within that Gate, all of us were killed, with the only thing remaining being my single strand of consciousness here—– in the end, the descendants of the Human realm were still manipulated to complete annihilation”

His voice suddenly became strong: – – -But we haven’t lost, at least you still carry the knowledge passed on by our human civilization—                the Demon Dragon was still the highest crystallization of our civilization; while my Dance was a supreme power from the Boundless Void discovered by humanity during our exploration”

“Senior, I think I know who your enemy must be” Gu Qing Shan commented in a low voice.

“I know as well-but I also know that we are not his match at all” the bald old man replied.

He turned around and patted Gu Qing Shan’s shoulder.

“From beginning to end, I didn’t have the courage to even find that individual; because as soon as I did, it meant that this ‘game’ would be over”

“I repeat the word ‘die’ to myself day and night, because I understand perfectly that humanity couldn’t resist against such a powerful enemy. The destruction of humanity was definite, and it was only a matter of time”

–           -and completing the Calamity Dragon of Annihilation would only shorten the imminent moment of our deaths”

“But could we simply lay down and die?”

“No, I felt that humanity had hope, even if that hope was bleak and faint, we still had to finish creating this large-scale Soul Artifact of War”To leave it for the humans of the future”

After saying that, the old man turned around again and walked into the noodle shop.

Gu Qing Shan followed him.

The waiter came up and asked: “Welcome, what would you like to have?”

“Beef noodle, a Large please” the old man said.

The waiter left after taking his order.

The old man smiled again and continued: “The Calamity Dragon of Annihilation can only awaken while it’s within the Samsara, so our generation would definitely never have lived long enough to see it, but you are currently in the middle of the Samsara Clash for Supremacy–

Gu Qing Shan said: “I will avenge you all”

“And what if you failed?” the old man asked.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I will pass on everything once more, to leave some kindling for the fate of humanity; until eventually, when another person ignites this flame again”

The old man didn’t say anything and simply placed his hand on his shoulder.

The noodles had been served.

The old man picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.

“This noodle is still as good as it was all those years ago” he commented sentimentally.

In a flash, the world became blurry.

His surroundings gradually faded away.

Only a few lines of bloody red text remained, hovering in front of Gu Qing Shan’s vision:

[That piece of data and its conduit has thoroughly disappeared] [It has been converted to the other half of the secret key]

[Secret key: True Name, obtained] [Secret key: Authorization, obtained]

[The secret key has been completed]

[Bygone Daemon, Calamity Dragon of Annihilation, Absolute; you are the greatest masterpiece of the Bygone Era’s humanity]

– –Your evolution will soon begin!]
