The monster snapped back to its senses for a brief moment.

r Heavenly Emperor, save me—— J

It shouted with no hesitation.

Gu Qing Shan and the skull woman both appeared cautious.

But the Samsara Divine Lightning simply struck the nebula monster’s chest like a blob of ink before erupting into several layers of sparks.

All the sparks then proceeded to enter the monster’s body.

The monster instantly went stiff.

Its life signs ceased, its body and soul were both crumbling away.

Its galactic body of stars gradually faded away from the sky of Huang Quan.

Up until its very last moment, the monster was still muttering in disbelief: r Heavenly Emperor… you said… J

Its voice abruptly cut.

-its existence had been wiped out.

Gu Qing Shan indifferently watched as everything unfold, only feeling a sense of speechlessness as he did.

All of a sudden, several lines of bloody red text rapidly appeared:

[Warning, a highly unique Phase Realm is descending]

Before Gu Qing Shan could react, he felt the entire world of Huang Quan vanishing from his vision.

His surroundings became dark.

And then light gradually came.

He now found himself standing within a massive silent audience hall.

There was nobody in the hall.

On both sides of the audience hall, there were a total of 6 platforms, 5 of which contained faint images, while the 6th contained a book.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit hesitant, still unclear of his current situation.

–whydid I suddenly appearin an audience hall?

The void of space shifted slightly as a mask appeared.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

This mask seems so familiar.

Isn’t it my Samsara Wicked Mask, the one called [Jade Cultivation]?

But I’ve clearly combined it together with my Thaumaturgy.

Why is it here now?

“The mask was quite decent, so I made one for myself”

A low-pitched voice spoke up.

Gu Qing Shan turned towards the voice.

Only to see a hand reaching out from the void of space to grab the mask and put it on.

It was a man.

He appeared out from the void of space with the mask already on his face as he sat down behind his reading desk.

“Welcome, the newest Huang Quan Devil King” that person said.

“You are… the previous Heavenly Emperor?”

Gu Qing Shan focused his attention and asked.

“Indeed, you may refer to me as such” the person replied.

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief, almost as if a huge weight had just been lifted from his chest.

It wasn’t Shifu.

The one behind all of this wasn’t Shifu!

Having confirmed this, he felt nothing but delight.

Gu Qing Shan cleared his throat and asked: “Why did you appear at this point in time? And why did you transfer me into this Phase Realm?”

The man replied: “I made an agreement with the Lord of all Things: at the moment of its near-death, I would show up in a timely manner without fail”

“So that’s the reason you’re here?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Correct” the man admitted.

“But you didn’t rescue it” Gu Qing Shan countered.

“I did agree to show up, but I never said I would rescue it” the man with the white yaksha mask said.

Gu Qing Shan stayed silent briefly before asking: “Then, what’s the significance of your presence here?”

“It managed to screw up with a simple matter, so I had no choice but to show up and deal with the aftermath myself”

“And what do you intend to do?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The man leaned back on his chair and started to evaluate him: “This is the first time I’ve met you, so I’d like to hear what you think about the Samsara”

Gu Qing Shan shrugged: “I don’t know what exactly it is either, but everyone close to me are within the Samsara, so I’d like to take control of it”

The man shook his head: “Even the true Huang Quan Devil King was killed by my hands, so it’s out of the question for a feeble successor like yourself, the Samsara will ultimately be mine”

As Gu Qing Shan was about to reply, a voice spoke up in his mind:

“Don’t listen to him”

-this is the giant corpse’s voice!

It continued: “The real previous Heavenly Emperor is being stalled by me and is unable to make his way over there. The only thing he could do is to imbue a strand of his consciousness into the yaksha mask and have it turn into the world you’re seeing, he’s trying to win without a fight”

Gu Qing Shan paused, then silently asked: “I wouldn’t surrender no matter what, his actions now would be meaningless”

“There is a meaning- he possesses the Pendant of Fire, so he’ll eventually find a way to get away from me and kill you” the giant corpse explained.

“How strong is this strand of consciousness?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“It’s borrowing the power of your mask– – only by destroying that mask would you be able to escape” the giant corpse replied.

“Got it” Gu Qing Shan said.

What seemed like a long conversation onlv lasted one breath’s worth of time-

then heard the man speak up again: “Your yaksha mask, your sword, all of your artifacts are now in my possession, don’t you think you should ask my opinion if you want to retrieve them?”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “If you are the real previous Heavenly Emperor, you’d be the real orchestrator behind all of the Samsara’s actions, the one in control of countless people’s lives, perhaps even the one that determines the ‘flow’ of the

Samsara. Would I really be qualified to ask your grace’s opinion?”

“You have indeed been granted that honor” the man smirked and answered.

Gu Qing Shan said with a stern expression: “Shut the hell up”

The man’s smirk slowly faded.

He sighed in a seemingly helpless manner: “I’m very busy, there are a lot of things that needs my attention every day, and the Samsara’s ‘competition’ is about to conclude, so I don’t have too much time to waste on this, so—–”

He pulled out a contract from the table drawer and tapped it with his finger.

The contract hovered by itself in front of Gu Qing Shan.

As Gu Qing Shan focused, he saw the content of the contract:

[Contractor: Gu Qing Shan]

[Contract terms: Gu Qing Shan must unconditionally listen to the orders of the contract’s creator]

[The contract’s creator promises to have Gu Qing Shan become the new High Deity of Huang Quan, effective indefinitely]

Gu Qing Shan also didn’t want to waste any more time.

This guy is as sly as he is cruel, so its practically impossible to fish out any useful information from him.

With that in mind, Gu Qing Shan grasped the void of space.

He had grasped a large blade.

“Divine Artifact, help me!”

He grunted and prepared to thrust the blade forward- –

But the man immediately vanished and grabbed the blade with his bare hand.

Gu Qing Shan tried to forcefully pull back, but couldn’t manage to pull the blade away at all.

“This mask was designed specifically to rob Thaumaturgies, the power of your Divine Artifacts will be improved by one level to be used against you” the man smiled.

As soon as he said that, the blade immediately became filled with cracks and started to break down.

The man’s mask also began to manifest ink marks to form a yaksha face.

– -this was the power of the Samsara Wicked Mask.

Several lines of text gradually appeared in the void of space:

[You’ve purposely made the preparations, thus putting your blade in a damaged state]

[The Samsara Wicked Mask had absorbed the blade’s power and manifested a power that’s one stage higher: Good as new]

-this blade was one of the many weapons he randomly picked out from the Heavenly Emperor’s armory in the underside of the Human realm, it was nothing but a very well-made mortal weapon.

At the time, everyone’s strengths were still sealed, and the Samsara had stripped them all of their weapons, so having anything to use at all was already a good thing.

As a precaution, Gu Qing Shan had specifically taken one extra blade for himself.

What he didn’t expect was for it to be useful at a place like this.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly let go of the blade and drew two swords out from the void of space with both hands.

As the Samsara Wicked Mask was busy digesting the ‘power’ it absorbed to evolve, it wouldnt be able to absorb the Delimitation Divine Sword or Chao Yin’s powers.

Gu Qing Shan brandished his swords and unleashed a barrage of sword phantoms.

Unable to keep up, the Samsara Wicked Mask was cut into pieces in mere seconds.

The world around him swiftly faded away.

Gu Qing Shan had returned to the Huang Quan realm.

A voice sounded:

Who came for you just now? Why did you disappear?

The skull woman asked.

“A strand of the Heavenly Emperor’s consciousness, he’s coming” Gu Qing Shan answered with a heavy tone.

The skull woman sighed and asked: [f What do you intend to do? J

“What if I say I want to fight?”                        asked.

The skull woman tiredly replied: He’s an entity of utmost power, you won’t be a match for him. Even with the combined power of the previous Huang Quan Devil King and I, we were still unable to win; I can’t even remember what happened back then –

Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.

He then took out the Devil King Warden Rod and said: “The previous Devil King told me to flee as long as I’m still unable to win, so—-”

We’re running away? the skull woman asked.

“Yes, but we’re not going to leave the Huang Quan world for him” Gu Qing Shan replied.

A crimson glow abruptly erupted from the horned skull of the Devil King

Warden Rod.

Gu Qing Shan grunted: “[Samsara Conquest]!”
