Chapter 400: The Statue That Can't Be Faced

The cold mechanical voice said, "Your Majesty, in the next mission, you can designate the demon world and arrange who will be among them. ā€

"Okay."

Gu Qingshan looked at the screen and continued to focus on the exploration task.

On the light curtain, the tall black man and the boy burrowed into the underground cavern.

After entering the underground, the two were obviously much more cautious.

They walked slowly in the dark, pausing from time to time to observe their surroundings.

Judging from the light curtain, they could only follow the two of them, and saw the outlines of some underground ruins in the darkness.

"Debriefing." Gu Qingshan Road.

The boy said to the light curtain, "No magic detection will work except for the naked eye, but fortunately, there are some roads here, and although they are covered in dust, they can still be recognized. ā€

"Follow the road and see what's at the end of the road." Gu Qingshan Road.

The two of them moved on.

After a while.

The voice of the tall black man sounded: "There is a blurry thing in front of the right, it should be the remnants of the building, we will go and check the situation." ā€

"Go ahead." Gu Qingshan Road.

His gaze moved as the two moved.

Soon, the two came to a wider area.

In front of them, a high platform appeared, most of which had collapsed, leaving only a ruin.

"There seems to be a stone statue on this platform, and after countless years, the statue has been completely destroyed." Juvenile Road.

"Can you restore this statue?" Gu Qingshan asked.

The boy said, "There are too many broken ones, and it will probably take some time to find the various parts of the statue." ā€

"The statue is worthless, we should go and see other places." The tall black man also said.

"Restore the statue, I need to see it." Gu Qingshan Road.

The boy and the tall black man looked at each other, crouched down helplessly, and began to search for the broken part of the statue.

After about a quarter of an hour, they finally found all the fragments of the statue and put them all on the ground.

The tall black man pressed his hand on the splinter and shouted, "Return to the original form." ā€

All the pieces flew up, gradually coming together, and were about to turn into a statue.

Suddenly, the light curtain in front of Gu Qingshan disappeared.

Two rapid screams rang out in my ears.

The world swirled.

In the next moment, Gu Qingshan found himself back in the dark tunnel.

There was silence all around, and there was no sound.

"What's going on?" Gu Qingshan couldn't help but ask.

A mechanical voice rang out from the black watch:

"Your Majesty, the two cannon fodder found the statue that could not be faced, and it was dead."

"To ensure your safety, I immediately activated the teleportation spell and teleported you from the ruins within the eleventh tick range."

Gu Qingshan was stunned.

He's dead?

That tall black man and boy didn't even have time to react at all, and just died?

"A statue that cannot be faced...... Do we have any records of this thing? Gu Qingshan asked.

The mechanical voice said: "According to the statistics of previous exploration results, all kinds of cannon fodder have encountered a total of three 'unfaceable statues', and all of them died, so it is determined that its name is 'unfaceable statues'." ā€

"Do we have any information about this statue?" Gu Qingshan asked again.

"Nope." The mechanical voice replied dryly.

All dead......

Gu Qingshan suddenly came back to his senses.

- This is a place where even the four gods of the void must be careful to deal with.

If it was so dangerous, why did the Four Evil Gods have to explore this place back then?

Gu Qingshan's thoughts turned, and he suddenly said, "I want to select people now and continue the exploration mission." ā€

"Please choose the world and the people." Mechanical channels.

"The world of demons." Gu Qingshan Road.

A curtain of light unfolded from the void in front of him.

A dark temple appears on a curtain of light.

"This is the Ghost Temple of the Strongest World: The Demon World, what kind of manpower do you need, you can release it immediately." Mechanical channels.

Gu Qingshan pressed his hand on the screen and said, "The personnel are determined to be: the three ghost masters of the life barrier, the giant body, and the karmic fire." ā€

"Please identify the appropriate task." Mechanical channels.

"The task is still to explore the ruins of the eleventh tick, let them enter the cave just now, and explore accordingly." Gu Qingshan Road.

"Yes."

……

Devilish world.

The three ghost masters are not in the ghost temple.

They stood outside a magnificent palace, with countless demons behind them.

The giant ghost lord took a step forward and said towards the palace, "Flying Moon City Lord, we have something to report. ā€

Waited for a few breaths.

Feiyue's voice sounded from the palace: "You say. ā€

The giant ghost lord clenched his fists slightly: "After our repeated considerations, the wedding day will be held in advance. ā€

Feiyue's voice rose suddenly: "I obviously said that the wedding would be held in three days, why did I have to advance it?" Do you think my marriage is child's play? ā€

The giant body ghost lord didn't speak, but the karmic fire ghost lord stepped forward and said, "Flying Moon City Lord, we made it clear, now we urgently need your strength, no matter what-"

His words stopped abruptly.

A strange wave fell from the sky and descended on the three ghost masters.

"It's—"

"True Evil Sect, why did you choose the three of us at the same time!"

"Go to the Ghost Temple!"

The three ghost masters disappeared from their place at the same time.

In the palace, everyone who was waiting for the battle was stunned.

The Lord of the Demon Tower said, "What's going on? Why did they run away all of a sudden? ā€

Fluttershy says, "I don't know, I'm here to persecute Flying Moon, why is it gone?" ā€

Feiyue didn't say a word, looked coldly outside the palace, and said, "Although we don't know, those evil ghosts all know what's going on. ā€

The crowd looked out.

I saw that the subordinates of the ghost lord were all standing in place and did not move.

The crow suddenly said: "Oh, look at them like this, those three ghost masters will come back sooner or later." ā€

……

Gu Qingshan stared at the light curtain.

I saw that on the light curtain, three ghost masters suddenly appeared in the ghost temple.

The fluctuations of the teleportation spell surrounded them, and seeing that the teleportation was about to be completed, the three ghost masters jumped onto the high platform in unison.

Their bodies gradually turned to stone.

- They turned into three statues!

At the same time, a mechanical voice suddenly sounded:

"Your Majesty, the person you have chosen has rejected this summons."

Gu Qingshan said: "Can they still refuse?" ā€

The mechanical voice explained, "In the thirty-six thousand worlds, no mortal can refuse the summons of the four gods, but the three of them have the same authority as you, so they can refuse the summons. ā€

Gu Qingshan pondered, "Why do they have the same authority as the four gods? ā€

"Because beyond the earth, water, fire, and wind, there is a fifth authority, and this authority gives them the right to refuse. ā€

Gu Qingshan immediately asked, "Who does the fifth authority belong to?" ā€

The mechanical voice said: "There are no relevant instructions. ā€

"Is it the level of the fifth authority that is high, or the level of the four gods that is high?"

"Fifth Privilege." Mechanical channels.

Gu Qingshan stopped speaking.

He stared at the three statues on the light curtain, his mind boiling.

Demons.

There are so many secrets.

What kind of beings are they that give them the authority comparable to the four gods?

The four gods explore this dark tunnel, but what about the demons? What are they doing here?

…… I must go to the demon world again to see what is going on in this world.

Go to the world of demons......

Gu Qingshan's heart suddenly moved.

He took out the pocket watch and opened it.

There are six scales on the pocket watch.

- This is what the eternal abyss gives.

Gu Qingshan put the pocket watch on his wrist, which was level with the black watch.

There are twelve scales on the black watch.

This is the legacy of the four evil gods.

Gu Qingshan looked at the pocket watch, and then at the black watch.

Ka-a, Ka-A, Ka-A......

In the dead darkness, the two watches made a neat sound of needle movements.
