Barrier of Light

Mist lingers.

Vision is dim.

Even with the blessing of "blazing fire", Gu Shen could not clearly see the mysterious sight of the rumored Qing Tomb and the inner tomb.

But as Gu Nanfeng said, as long as you move forward, there will be guidance in the dark.

When you walk into the mist, there is an invisible force that creates a sense of extraordinary aura with the blazing fire.

Gu Shen followed this feeling and walked forward slowly.

The fog was shrouded, and in front of him seemed to be the towering stone mausoleum gate and the majestic giant statues. Thanks to Chi Huo's keen perception, Gu Shen could vaguely see these scenery that should have been hidden in the fog. Rough outline.

"It is said that... before the Qing Tomb was built, this place was an ancient ruins."

Chu Ling's voice was intermittent.

The extraordinary source of matter suspended above Qingzhong completely blocked the signal from the deep sea.

Because there are too many extraordinary sources, even the spiritual link... is no longer stable.

Gu Shen walked between the huge stone pillars. He raised his head and looked back. He could only see the vast mist and the overlooking gaze of the giant statue.

Within this tomb, human beings are like tiny ants...

After walking for a long time, the fog guided Gu Shen into a mausoleum. Chu Ling's voice completely disappeared, the whole world became extremely silent, and the surrounding fog gradually became thinner.

"etc……"

"here it is……"

When the fog dissipates.

The light in front of Gu Shen's eyes lit up little by little... He stared blankly at the world that suddenly opened up in front of him. Weeds were flying, and an old tree stood in the wilderness. He turned around suddenly, and there was no mausoleum behind him, and there was no fog. .

Have you been hypnotized?

When did you enter this dream world? !

"Gu Shen, we meet again."

The sky above the wilderness echoed with sleepy whispers.

The tomb-keeper, who was wearing a long robe with dark patterns and black clouds, sat cross-legged on the tree trunk, still in the same posture of hanging upside down. The voice coming from the tabby cat mask seemed to be mixed with a soft smile.

"Thank you, Master Qianye... for just offering your help." Gu Shen took a breath to calm down, and bowed respectfully.

In the gym, if the guardian of the tomb had not come forward and raised his hand, then Gu Yujuan's enlightenment matter would probably have caused a lot of troubles. If he wanted to solve it by himself, it would not be like what it is today. Simple.

Maybe... we really have to wait until the teacher comes back before we have a chance to see the ancient scrolls.

"polite."

The guardian of the tomb slowly shook his head and asked with a smile: "How do you feel after studying the Guyu Juan?"

Although she always stayed in the mausoleum, she never left the tomb.

But as for what is happening in the outside world... the tomb guardians know everything about it.

The art of divination!

Master Qianye, like the "prophet" of the Tower of Source, this is actually a bit ironic...the two people who can see the entire world most clearly are physically trapped in a closed square inch.

"It feels...amazing."

Gu Shen looked at the tabby cat mask and had a very strange feeling.

He felt that all the secrets in the world could not be hidden from the woman sitting upside down in the ancient tree in front of him.

Hidden under that mask is a pair of unparalleled eyes that see through the world.

"I did not follow Mr. Gu Changzhi's 'guidance'..." Gu Shen smiled bitterly and told the truth, "I chose to touch the parchment scroll again... and then I saw a different wilderness of four seasons."

The eyes under the mask flickered slightly.

The tombkeeper smiled and said, "Oh... what kind of world is that?"

“More desolate, but also more alive.”

Gu Shen looked around, thought for a moment, and said, "In that world, I discovered seeds."

Master Qianye smiled and pointed below her: "This tree was just a seed many years ago."

"More than one."

Gu Shen shook his head and said seriously: "There are still many seeds in that desolate soil, waiting for me to cultivate and water them. I think... if one day, these seeds can germinate, there will be a lush area there. A prosperous pure world."

He paused slightly, looked at the guardian of the tomb, and said with a hint of apology: "I am very grateful to Mr. Gu Changzhi for his 'gift'... but that kind of four-season wilderness is not what I want."

"You did the right thing."

The tombkeeper spoke, but she did not let Gu Shen continue speaking, but affirmed: "This is exactly what Mr. Gu Changzhi wants to see, you should have your own way. The gift in Dadu was actually just for ...You should have a place to house the wandering souls, right? The real gift is not the spiritual realm that you will develop sooner or later."

Gu Shen's expression condensed.

"The real gift is the apostle from the Tower of Origin..."

The tombkeeper smiled and said: "You did not disappoint, and you did even better than I expected. Tie Wu's soul is sleeping soundly in the wilderness of the four seasons. It won't be long before he wakes up."

It was exactly as I expected.

Mr. Gu Changzhi wrapped an apostle with "divine domain" and stuffed it into his mind. In order to prevent the extraordinary source of Iron Five from spilling out, he left the incomplete four-season wilderness as a temporary place of temporary residence.

Being able to leave behind the soul of a dying person... Will a person with such means really die easily?

"I guard here, and I can often capture the wandering 'extraordinary essence'..."

"In fact, the reason why the entire Qing Tomb's extraordinary source of matter can operate smoothly is because Gu Changzhi's 'fire' was so powerful that it single-handedly suppressed the condensation of all extraordinary sources of matter, so the disorder phenomenon no longer occurred. This is the place with the most stable order in the Five Continents.”

"But over the years, the fire induction has become weaker and weaker."

The tomb keeper murmured: "The mental fluctuations I can feel from it are getting less and less."

"Until the last time... there was a strange movement in the Qing Tomb, a familiar mental wave came out, and that mental wave asked me for help... So I found you as a bridge through dream induction."

Gu Shen suddenly realized.

This was the reason for the last time... before the arrival of God, he met the tomb guard.

Was it the power of Mr. Gu Changzhi’s fire?

Gu Shen asked the question that everyone in the Five Continents Federation wanted to ask.

"So, does this also prove that Mr. Gu Changzhi...has always been alive?"

In the Battle of the Apostles in Dadu, Song Ci awakened the "White Parrot Crest" and fought to the death with the two apostles of the Tower of Origin as Gu Changzhi's apostle. After this day, the entire five continents believed that... Gu Changzhi was not dead, and it seemed that he would soon. Wake up!

But in fact, only a very few people know that this token does not belong to Gu Changzhi at all!

This inside story...only a few people know about it.

Aside from Gu Nanfeng who begged the token from Guangming City in Xizhou, the Guangming Divine Throne who gave the token as a gift, and Gu Shen... no one knows.

Even the person involved, Song Ci, was only informed of the truth after the fight.

The Dongzhou Federation breathed a sigh of relief.

But Gu Shen couldn't relax in his heart... Even after meeting him once in the spiritual realm, he still couldn't be sure whether the man who single-handedly held up the ceiling of Dongzhou had really woken up.

This is very important to Dongzhou.

"certainly……"

The tomb keeper didn't even think for a second before answering.

Master Qianye responded slowly: "He has always lived and never died... Every strand of extraordinary essence wandering in the Qingzhong Tomb, every ray of sunshine that protects Nagano, is his incarnation."

Since the Qing Tomb was built.

Since Gu Changzhi "moved" into the mausoleum.

There have been no more turbulences or disasters in the Nagano area. In the past ten years, the weather has been smooth and extremely peaceful.

"You know what I mean... the life that people care about is often the life that can be seen." Gu Shen said word by word: "If you have to sleep in the Qing Tomb to protect the peace of Nagano, then Mr. Gu Changzhi's contribution ...will not be recognized. People outside do not think that the power of the throne protects them. Sooner or later, they will come in to find out."

And once they really saw the scene in front of them.

There was no one inside the mausoleum.

In the wilderness throughout the four seasons, there is only one dead tree and one tombkeeper.

By then...how much of the world's reverence, admiration, and worship for the "Throne of God" will be left?

"..."

The tomb keeper was silent.

Master Qianye's silence is actually an answer.

Her eyes were a little dim...

Gu Shen gritted his teeth, "After the arrival of the gods... I had a private conversation with Mr. Gu Changzhi."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the tomb guard who was sitting cross-legged on the dead tree lit up.

After fulfilling the fire's wish to build a bridge, she broke the spiritual link.

As for the specific things that happened next, because it involved the throne, she had no way of knowing... However, through divination afterwards, she vaguely glimpsed that Gu Shen had an additional spiritual realm that was "gifted out of thin air", as well as a wisp of the soul that should have died. The soul of the apostle.

Master Qianye's lips were a little dry, "What... did he say to you?"

"After the arrival of the gods... I saw Mr. Gu Changzhi's spirit in a pure golden divine realm." Gu Shen looked around and murmured: "It's not the Four Seasons Wilderness... There is a blazing sun hanging high there, except for Beyond that, there is endless radiance.”

"What...did he say to you?" The tomb guard's voice was slightly trembling.

Gu Shen was startled.

It turns out that there are some things in this world that cannot be calculated even by divination.

Master Qianye has been guarding the Qingzhong Mausoleum for so many years, ten years a day, never leaving even half a step... In the outside world, many people had doubts and many people were shaken. It was only because of her existence that those people were finally willing to believe. Gu Changzhi's throne is still alive, but he chose to recuperate and sleep in the Qing Tomb due to "special" reasons.

But in fact, she didn't know the truth.

The "omniscient" tomb keeper doesn't know whether the person he is guarding is alive or dead... If word spreads, I'm afraid many people's beliefs will collapse, right?

Gu Shen took a deep breath and said: "The 'divine presence' that time... was the seed that Mr. Gu Changzhi buried in the Dionysus!"

"In the [Old World], Dionysus once secretly spied on Mr. Gu Changzhi... and the seeds of 'God's Arrival' were planted at that time."

The guardian of the tomb couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

This is a causal foreshadowing laid decades ago.

No wonder... no wonder the final "divine arrival" can come.

She and the prophet from the Tower of Source, because of their ancient inheritance and the particularity of their extraordinary abilities, are indeed able to "foresee the future" to a certain extent, that is, "see the future in advance", but their human power is sometimes exhausted... They No matter how much divination and fortune-telling are done, it is difficult to spy on those "gods" holding fire!

Gu Shen continued: "The God of Dionysus has suffered divine punishment..."

He repeated Gu Changzhi's oracle in the Golden God Realm.

Because of the sin of seeing too much... Dionysus was stripped of his eyes and became a blind man.

And once he opens his eyes and violates the punishment, Gu Changzhi's spiritual thoughts will come again, and the Dionysian Seat will immediately usher in even more terrifying punishments!

This is definitely a heart-wrenching statement.

After experiencing a "coincidence"... Dionysus definitely had a psychological shadow.

After this battle, no matter how he reviewed it, he could not trace back the final truth of God's arrival... And after thinking about it, the only reasonable answer he could think of was that the entire Apostle's War in Dadu was designed by Gu Changzhi.

Please enter the urn.

He didn't believe in evil, so he jumped.

So...blind.

Under such circumstances, would he dare to jump again?

Although they have not experienced it personally, just by listening to Gu Shen's description, the tomb keeper also felt the thrill of that divine battle...

"In a short period of time, the Dionysian will probably not act rashly." Gu Shen said solemnly: "Mr. Gu Changzhi answered many of my confusions near the end of the visit."

"He seems to know everything that's happening in the outside world..."

"Gu Nanfeng used the highest authority to change his identity code and go to Beizhou..."

"He seems to know about the borrowing of the Guangming City apostle's tokens."

When the tomb guard heard this... the expression under the mask was a bit strange.

Her chest suddenly felt lighter.

A big stone that had been hanging there for a long time seemed to be put down lightly.

These words are enough to prove that Gu Changzhi is still alive.

He knew that he had used his "highest authority" to help Gu Nanfeng escape from Nagano and go to Beizhou... and he also knew everything that happened afterwards.

"By the way, if I remember correctly, he mentioned you as..." Gu Shen thought of something important. He paused briefly and said seriously: "Xiaoye."

Ono...a distant but familiar name.

A sour feeling came to her heart, and the tombkeeper took a deep breath. She looked at the wind and clouds in the wilderness behind her, and murmured with a smile: "Sure enough, I knew it... you were always there... and looking outside. world……"

But why did you never give a response to the outside world?

She has waited so hard for so many years, so many years...

It's so lonely here.

It's too long.

"I would like to ask, where is Mr. Gu Changzhi...?"

Gu Shen saw the joy and loneliness, sadness and sadness in Master Qianye's eyes. He waited for a long time until her emotions gradually calmed down, and then he tentatively spoke, wanting to ask about Mr. Gu Changzhi's "resting place".

The tomb keeper pointed behind him.

Behind the ancient trees, there is a long and endless wilderness.

"He's right there...far, far away."

"At the end of Qingzhong."

"Also at the end of dreams."
