A dense jungle.
Gu Qingshan stood on a tree.
He had already sensed that he had lost his strength and become an ordinary person once more.
A trickling stream wound its way past not far ahead.
Beside the stream, on one side of the forest, stood a house built of red brick.
Across the entire Twin Stars, this was the only Red Brick House where people could rest.
Other than this place, the only safe spot was the stream.
If you weren't inside the Red Brick House or near the stream, you were as good as dead.
Outside the village and the stream, all kinds of bizarre things lurked. The moment you touched one, you would be "dealt with" on the spot.
"Dealt with" could mean—
Being killed,
being eaten,
being absorbed,
being imprisoned,
being crushed,
being sealed,
Of course, among the many ways to be "dealt with," there was another possible fate—
Being transported to another world.
That was the best outcome.
Gu Qingshan climbed down from the tree and stood by the stream.
"How is it?"
He asked.
Mountain Girl's voice rang out in the air. "I can sever it."
Gu Qingshan looked surprised and murmured to himself, "The world of the Four Pillars Land has clearly sealed away all Transcendence, yet you can still sever it?"
"Yes, Young Master. I can still sever it," Mountain Girl replied.
They were discussing one of Mountain Girl's divine abilities—Law Severance.
"Law Severance: Across countless worlds, no law can affect this sword."
Gu Qingshan said absently, "I'm beginning to understand something."
"What?"
"—Why the Six Paths of Reincarnation can become humanity's ultimate weapon."
A voice suddenly rang down from the sky.
"Shoo, shoo, shoo!"
(We're running out of time!)
A Gourd Jade Pendant dropped from the sky, directly infusing Gu Qingshan
