In the Extremely Ancient Era, the Abyss Weaver of Fate had infiltrated the Human Race, exacting vengeance as she pleased. She had killed several powerful figures in succession before finally being captured.
Her struggle with the Human Race's leadership had been a clash between the mightiest forces in the Human Race.
By comparison, Gu Qingshan's strength was, at the end of the day, only that of a Three Thousand Worlds Realm cultivator. He hadn't even reached the Four Pillars Saint Realm.
In the Extremely Ancient Era, that made him a boy.
—More precisely, he would have been a "commoner boy."
So even though Mountain Girl possessed Gu Qingshan's strength, she still couldn't defeat this formidable enemy, who had once stood at the pinnacle of the Human Race and eventually undergone Abyssification.
Yes, on the Twin Stars, the tall woman had lost the power granted to her by the Abyss, and she couldn't use her own power either.
—But her body was completely beyond Gu Qingshan's ability to harm.
Fortunately, they were on the Twin Stars. Otherwise, the difference in their strength would have been as vast as the gulf between heaven and earth.
In that case, Gu Qingshan wouldn't even have had a chance to fight back.
Gu Qingshan stared at the tall woman, and suddenly understood something.
Why had the Sleeping Magic Dragon yearned so desperately for the Abyss's power?
It had been imprisoned in the Abyss Watch Prison, where it guarded the corpse of the Abyss Weaver of Fate day after day.
It knew perfectly well how terrifying the tall woman's power had become after her Abyssification.
That was why the Sleeping Magic Dragon had craved the power of the Abyss so desperately.
It had hoped to undergo Abyssification itself, then break free of the Human Race's control
