Chapter 386
Translated by: La0o9
Proofreader: Arya
TN: from this chapter onwards, the Six Paths of Reincarnation will be referred to as the Samsara . They are the exact same thing, but Samsara takes less work to type XD .
Gu Qing Shan hid at the bottom of the Forgetting River, moving ahead in full speed for about an hour .
For one hour straight, no creatures could be seen in the river .
After so long, he finally couldn’t take it anymore .
Gu Qing Shan came up from the bottom of the Forgetting River, lightly hovering above the water .
This was already really far from the dark tunnel .
The sunset reflected on the water surface made everything appear faint, even the reflections of the sky above was blurry and chaotic .
When standing above the vast river without ends, all he could faintly see were a few tall mountains really far away .
In fact, it was a vast mountain range that connected the sky and the earth .
When Gu Qing Shan faced this direction, the mountain was all that he could see in his vision .
The mountain was like a wall that blocked out the sky .
“Seems like this is the way” Gu Qing Shan commented .
Sticking close to the surface of the water, he started flying towards the towering mountain range .
The old saying ‘Looking at the mountain kills the horse’ wasn’t wrong, it took Gu Qing Shan a whole two hours of flying before he got close to the foot of the mountain . (1)
Then, Gu Qing Shan was surprised .
Two lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI .
[You’ve arrived at the Grand Tie Wei Mountain] (2)
[The Grand Tie Wei Mountain is hell itself, formed from the Law of Huang Quan and hells, this mountain protects the 6 worlds of Samsara]
Reading that, Gu Qing Shan’s expression turned solemn .
So this was the Grand Tie Wei Mountain .
The Grand Tie Wei Mountain was the outermost layer of the samsara .
In the story of legends, outside the Samsara, there exists a Wind of Chaotic Tribulation that destroys everything .
It was a type of power even more terrifying than the space vortex .

Once the Wind of Chaotic Tribulation gets into a world, it’ll destroy both the world and everything that exists within it .
Before the Wind of Chaotic Tribulation, no creatures have any hope to survive, the world itself would also disappear .
And the Grand Tie Wei Mountain is the only thing that can stop this type of wind .
It was the grand mountain that protected the entirety of the Samsara .
The lower half of the Grand Tie Wei Mountain rested in the Forgetting River, where there are pathways leading deep into the endless underground .
The 18 hells of legends actually lie within these pathways below the Grand Tie Wei Mountain .
This mountain shields the inside from the wind of destruction, while suppressing the 18 hells that rests below itself, an incredible mountain .
After stopping to stare at the Grand Tie Wei Mountain for a while, Gu Qing Shan started heading towards the foot of the mountain .
It can’t be helped, since there was nothing inside the Forgetting River except the blue-dress maid from before .
He had no choice but to enter the mountain .
About another half hour of flying later, a faint sound of commotion could be heard from afar .
Gu Qing Shan tilted his ears to listen .
Screams, yells, the sound of metal hitting each other .
Immense killing intent that filled the mountain .
Gu Qing Shan was very close to the Grand Tie Wei Mountain at this point .
As Gu Qing Shan focused, he saw that there were countless demons and dead people on the mountain .
They were fighting among each other .
All sorts of demonic creatures, humans, giants, fiendkind as well as chaotic creatures .
They were killing each other in an all-out chaotic battle that didn’t rest for even a single second .
Gu Qing Shan silently ducked down into the water and observed this without anyone’s notice .
So the demons have taken over hell?
Doesn’t seem like it .
Some of the dead were allied with the demons to kill the other deads .
The other deads were desperately fighting back, doing everything they can to kill the demons .

An abrupt sound of something ripping through the air caught Gu Qing Shan’s attention .
This sound was like that of an extremely sharp knife cutting through the air .
Slightly sticking his head from the water, he looked at where the Blade was heading in the air .
At the foot of the mountain really close to the Forgetting River, innumerable demons and dead allied with each other to corner a group of dead that had barely over a hundred people left .
This group of just over a hundred dead were being pushed back towards the Forgetting River .
“Stop running you spineless cowards! Go back to your hell and sleep!” a Fiendkind roared .
It seems that the dead in hell only use their thoughts to communicate, so despite being from different Eras, the souls could understand each other .
The smaller group of dead were slowly being slaughter until there were no more of them .
The 10 remaining dead were protecting an armored dead human that carried a Blade in his hand .
Despite being overwhelmingly outnumbered, they still persevered and fought .
On this part of the mountain that was close to the foot, the demons and dead surrounded and wanted to put these resisting dead back to sleep .
But the dead human wasn’t that easy to kill .
The Blade in his hand had unbelievable power .
Whenever he slashed with it, sharp chills would form blade slashes that flew forward .
The demons and dead that took this attack head on couldn’t survive, instantly slaughtered without offering any resistance at all .
But there were so many of them, whenever one of them died, another would quickly follow to fill the opening, and then some .
The demons were rushing in towards them nonstop to surround them .
Despite his might, the dead human could only temporarily ensure that the enemies couldn’t get close to himself .
His men were quickly killed one by one, until he was the only one left .
“Die! Die! All of you die!”
The dead human screamed and roared, constantly moving his body to make sure his attacks had no opening to be taken advantage of .
But he was only a single person .
He was already staggering and even almost fell down a few times .
And when he does, the demons and the dead would spare no time to make sure he stays down .

The Earth sword hovered in the air, asking in a low voice: 「 What now? 」
“Let’s save him first” Gu Qing Shan answered .
Following his thought, the Earth sword flew out .
With its full weight of 86,370,000 tons, the Earth sword turned into a blinding crescent slash .
The slash was so large that it instantly cleared out a large area in an instant .
Any demons that tried to stop the Earth sword all got turned to mush .
Receiving such a chance, the dead human managed to catch his breath .
But since he was covered in wounds, this short moment of relief instead of helping him, caused him to collapse .
“Who are you!” he shouted as he looked over to Gu Qing Shan .
“The one who saves you” Gu Qing Shan answered .
His Blade suddenly rang loudly .
“I’m already done” the person threw the Blade upwards and shouted: “Save it!”
Only the Blade?
Gu Qing Shan jumped up, catching him and his Blade in midair before jumping back down into the Forgetting River .
The river split apart .
Gu Qing Shan took the dead human into the Forgetting River with him, weaving his way through .
As the demons got close to the Forgetting River, they didn’t dare to get in .
They know about its dangers .
If they fall into the Forgetting River, the only thing waiting for them will be suffering in hell or be reincarnated into another world .
The Laws of Huang Quan doesn’t give exceptions even to demons .
While roaring in regret, the demons could only stand at the river banks and watch .
“Get out of the way, we’ll do it!” a dead Fiendkind hissed as it pushed the demons aside .
The dead can enter Forgetting River .
They jumped into the river one after another, chasing after Gu Qing Shan .
Gu Qing Shan swung the Chao Yin sword backwards .
The Forgetting River kicked up large waves that pushed the dead back to the river bank .
When the dead finally stood up and wanted to enter the Forgetting River, they found it already returned to its original state .
The person they were chasing was nowhere to be seen .
A few dozen miles away, the bottom of the Forgetting River .
The dead human laid on the ground, unmoving .
After a while, he slowly sunk into the ground and disappeared without a trace .
「 His wounds were too heavy, he’s dead 」the Earth sword spoke with an echoing voice .
“Yeah, I had hoped to get a bit of information from him” Gu Qing Shan said .
A dead person when killed will go back into slumber in hell, waiting for the next time they wake .
Gu Qing Shan felt a bit frustrated .
He originally wanted to ask about what happened in Huang Quan before deciding his next actions .
Who would’ve thought the person would die so quickly .
While he was considering to catch a dead person, the Blade on the ground moved by itself .
“Hm?” Gu Qing Shan squinted his eyes and held the Earth sword tight .
“Don’t panic, we’re on the same side”
The Blade spoke .
“Ah, how do you know I’m on the same side as you?” Gu Qing Shan stared straight at the Blade and asked .
He saw the Blade’s power with his own eyes so he can’t be careless .
“Your presence . You have her presence on you, so of course you’re one of us” the Blade stood up and spoke .
A puff of white light slowly manifested at the hilt of the Blade .
It was a small, pure white bird .
The small white bird flew up and flew circles around Gu Qing Shan .
It spoke with relief: “I can finally catch my breath”
