Chapter 1821 - 1821 Legitimacy of the Death God

1821 Legitimacy of the Death God

“I understand…”

Su Xue Er reached out her hand to receive the Death God’s Scythe from Scarlet, but suddenly stopped.

!!

She instead put one hand around Scarlet’s shoulder and held up the scythe with her other hand.

“Scarlet… with my Space-Time powers, let us send the scythe to him together”

“Why do we have to do that?” Scarlet asked doubtfully as she helped hold the scythe up.

Su Xue Er replied: “I will use the Death God’s Scythe as a catalyst to transfer all of my Death God’s power to him; at that time, as we send the scythe together, you will be able to see him for a short moment”

Scarlet immediately became anxious.

“Come… don’t be scared”

Su Xue Er held the Death God’s Scythe tightly and pointed it towards the void of space together with Scarlet.

Endless black flames of death emanated from her body before they all flowed into the scythe.

——what she inherited before was the Origin Power of Death from the Lord of Radiance, which she had now transferred into the scythe in its entirety.

Su Xue Er rapidly chanted an incantation.

As time went by, overlapping visions from the River of Time silently manifested, and continuously circled around her to form a stream of visions.

The intense flowing water of time began to flow in reverse and formed a translucent waterfall.

Su Xue Er and Scarlet were on this side of the waterfall.

While Gu Qing Shan’s silhouette could be seen on the other side.

“Do you see him?” Su Xue Er asked.

Scarlet nodded, then couldn’t help but ask: “Can we talk to him?”

Su Xue Er replied: “We cannot, across Space-Time, it’s impossible to communicate, we can only see him”

Scarlet felt a bit disappointed.

At this point, Su Xue Er seemed to have realized something and uttered: “Open!”

She grabbed Scarlet’s hand and helped her push the Death God’s Scythe into the reverse-flowing waterfall of time.

In that exact moment.

The water was no longer opaque, allowing the visage of the person on the other side to become clear.

It was Gu Qing Shan.

In this once-in-a-lifetime moment, he had used [Mystery of All Beings Equal] to turn back into his original appearance.

He smiled and gave the two girls a gentle look.

Su Xue Er’s eyes almost became red as she wanted to say something, but she stopped herself.

She only gently squeezed Scarlet’s hand to signal her.

Before she then released her grip.

——as they both let go of it, the Death God’s Scythe would arrive at Gu Qing Shan’s side.

And it would all be over.

Scarlet’s eyes were still locked onto Gu Qing Shan, unwilling to let him out of her sight but couldn’t do anything about it.

She clenched her teeth and prepared to let go as well——

But Gu Qing Shan suddenly took a step forward to face her directly.

Practically pressing his face against the water, he silently moved his lips to mouth something to her.

Scarlet responded to Gu Qing Shan with a surprised look.

Even though she couldn’t hear what he said, she knew exactly what he wanted to tell her.

She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled.

[I believe!]

She also silently mouthed these words back at him as she pushed the Death God’s Scythe forward——

Crash!

The waterfall then immediately collapsed and disappeared, together with all the water from the River of Time.

Both the Death God’s Scythe and Gu Qing Shan vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed in the first place.

…

The visions of the past had all faded away.

The Delimitation Divine Sword hovered next to Gu Qing Shan and said: 「 Not only did you make a connection with the past, but you even took an object from it; the flow of time in this area has gone into complete disarray, it’s no longer possible to see anything from the past of this place 」

Gu Qing Shan only remained silent for a brief moment before replying: “It’s ok, I no longer have any regrets”

He reached his hand out to grasp the long-handled Death God’s Scythe that was currently engulfed in the endless black flames of Death.

The black flames then flowed into his body through his arm.

At this point, Gu Qing Shan was a bit hesitant.

If I absorb the entire power of Death, I’d definitely retrieve my authority as the Death God.

That would surely cause a commotion across the Huang Quan world as a whole.

So, should I continue to lay low and silently make my preparations, or immediately become a high-ranking Deity?

He fell into thought.

After a few moments.

He shook his head and chuckled: “It’s already time to show my true mettle, why bother with minor tricks?”

The giant corpse has already acted.

Even the Overlooker of Myriad Realms is here to help me.

And none of my enemies can be easily defeated.

If I don’t try to obtain more power and fight at a time like this, what am I supposed to be waiting for?

An invisible aura began to radiate from Gu Qing Shan.

He was reciting an incantation with a low voice: “Death is a beautiful dream, as one falls into it, one will be graced with eternal slumber—— servants of the Lord of Death, the time is nigh to return to the origin of your Law, so shall you become mine and the River of Death’s envoy”

Hoh——

Once again, black flames began to arise from the scythe, gradually manifesting into a bird of darkness.

During the Age of Immemorial, it was first summoned by Scarlet, then condensed into the Death God’s Scythe due to Rhode’s combat requirements.

And now, it has returned to the River of Death.

The bird of darkness slightly lowered its body to Gu Qing Shan like it was bowing to him, then turned into a streak of dark light that plunged into the River of Death like a bolt of black lightning.

It then turned into a thick black fog as it slowly seeped into the River of Death.

Everything went silent.

The entire world seemed to have plunged into a miraculous sense of silence.

As Gu Qing Shan stood still, over a dozen streaks of light rapidly flew out from the Hall of Reincarnation.

——-they were the Deities from the Merit Hall!

They landed around Gu Qing Shan and swiftly took out various treasure tools to create a venue.

The Daemon official who was responsible for helping him promote his rank was also there, who spoke to him with a complicated expression: 「 I didn’t think that you would originally be a God from the River of Death. Right now, Huang Quan and the River of Death are about to resonate, we will help you reinforce this resonance as much as we can so that your Deific Authority can be promoted without issue 」

Gu Qing Shan slightly nodded: “I’ve troubled you, thank you very much”

「 You’re welcome, it’s part of our duty and responsibility to do the same for all beings of Huang Quan. I will now explain to you which points to pay attention to in this process 」

The official then explained everything again in clearer details, basically, the intermediary process between mortality and godhood would give birth to a Huang Quan Divine Skill, during which one must use their will to communicate with the Origin of Huang Quan.

As Gu Qing Shan solemnly listened to the explanation, he suddenly felt a miraculous sense of connection.

It was as if the entire world was paying attention to him, synchronizing with his every breath.

The official whispered: 「 It’s about to begin! I’ll give you one last reminder, there is only one Forgetting River in Huang Quan, so the Deities of the Forgetting River are both wary and covetous of the River of Death; you must consider what you should do by yourself 」

After saying that, they retreated.

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

At the very next moment, lines of bloody red text silently appeared one by one:

[You’ve obtained the Origin power of Death that was kept by Radiance, as well as the protection of the River of Death]

[You’ve received the joint reinforcement of Huang Quan and the River of Death]

[Ever since the Age of Immemorial, you have been the guide of all living beings’ end, he who leads the way into the world of slumber, and ruler of the River of Death]

[—-You are the God of Death!]

[You naturally possess innumerable Merits, which has automatically promoted you to become the Supreme Deity of the River of Death]

As Gu Qing Shan looked up, he saw the number marked by the Merit Accountant machine flashing before transforming into a dozen-meter-tall mass of dark light, which silently manifested behind his back like a radiant black sun.

“Why isn’t there a number displayed?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Your excellency’s Merit is innumerable] the Merit Accountant answered.

“Conceal it, this appearance is too eye-catching, it’s not suitable for me” Gu Qing Shan replied.

[Understood]

The radiant black sun silently faded away into the void of space.

Sensing something in his mind, Gu Qing Shan turned his gaze towards the River of Death.

Only to see the water of the River of Death gradually surging forward, slowly reaching an equilibrium with the flow of the Forgetting River.

Within the Forgetting River, numerous Deities began to emerge and fly out to examine the situation.

After a quick thought, Gu Qing Shan opened his mouth:

“The Forgetting River is the bed of reincarnation, the River of Death is the place of final slumber, they shan’t be mixed”

With his declaration, the River of Death began to tremble and boil, as if it was actually sentient.

“Go, I belong to Hell, so you should also enter Hell and once again manifest as a river at the bottom of the 18 Layers of Hell”

“The dead who have paid for their sins back in full but don’t wish to be reincarnated can plunge into eternal slumber within the River of Death”

The black river immediately began to flow backwards, moving like a water dragon along the Forgetting River until it reached the border of the Tie Wei mountain and the Forgetting River, after which it plunged inside.

——and vanished.

It no longer laid alongside the Forgetting River on the surface of Huang Quan.

From today onwards, the River of Death would belong to Hell alone.

Standing still, Gu Qing Shan felt a dim yellow light slowly wrapping around his body from the void of space.

Lines of bloody red text appeared in front of his eyes:

[You have become a Virtuous Deity of Huang Quan]

[The world of Huang Quan has sensed you and will manifest a corresponding Huang Quan Divine Skill]

[Begin!]
