「 No! 」
The Demon Dragon’s furious roar resounded within the gigantic space of darkness .
But it was too late .
The 12 shining stars engraved in the sky above received their order and swiftly merged, turning into a blinding light that illuminated this entire space .
Power gathered from all directions within the starry sky and made the light become even more blinding .
The Demon Dragon’s soul struggled, trying hard to escape from the black chains that restrained it .
But it was futile .
This black chain had existed since his birth and grew together with his growth in all these years .
And the moment arrived .
All the light in the sky above gathered into a point and gently descended .
This point of blinding light silently entered into the Demon Dragon’s forehead .
The Demon Dragon couldn’t move .
At this moment, he finally saw the fate that was about to befall him and felt unbridled rage as well as the unwillingness to accept .
「 Death to me is nothing but release, but you WILL take on all of my restraints, suffering, and solitude! 」
As he spoke, rays of light came off his body and shot into every direction .
The Demon Dragon was slowly being engulfed within the light .
At the very last moment of his life, he glared at Gu Qing Shan with a malicious smile in his eyes .
「 Receive it all 」
The light completely swallowed the creature .
Another long while later, the blinding light slowly dissipated .
The world returned to darkness .
The Demon Dragon had been eliminated from this world .
Gu Qing Shan silently stood still with a complicated look in his eyes .
He could already feel it .
From a deep unknown location, an aura of destruction appeared out of nowhere, turned into a fog of darkness surrounding his body .
The dark fog was being absorbed into his body .
Two black flames manifested in his eyes as twisted and evil patterns manifested all over his face .
An intense tornado of miasma surrounded him while howling and screeching .
In his vision, lines of blood-red text popped up consecutively:
[WARNING! WARNING!]
[Your Excellency, your body is undergoing an unprecedented change, you are turning into an inhumane existence]
[You are about to lose your identity as a human!]
[Please think of a way to stop this process, otherwise, your body will be irreversibly transformed into a humanoid weapon!]
[Please resolve this current problem before anything else!]
The black flames inside Gu Qing Shan’s eyes were growing stronger .
He opened his palms and looked down at him .
Both of his hands were turning pitch black as tiny and complicated patterns were gradually spreading all over his skin, his nails were growing to become sharper and longer .
A boiling, violent power was surging inside his body .
Gu Qing Shan could do nothing but smile bitterly .
Who would’ve thought, the [Demon King Order] wouldn’t even suggest any solution and just urge me to quickly come up with a way to deal with this problem .
It seems that this really is hopeless .
“Turning into the Demon Dragon can’t be helped, as long as…”
As long as he obtained the Heaven sword .

To obtain the Heaven sword on a path surrounded by the Abyssal monsters on every corner, this was the only way .
Gu Qing Shan spoke to himself, but couldn’t finish his sentence .
He was enduring the intense pain that emerged from all over his body .
This was the power of the Demon Dragon clashing with his human body .
After this was over, the power of the Demon Dragon would fully convert his body .
Pain that far surpassed what a human could withstand washed and lingered over him .
Gu Qing Shan dropped to his knees as every muscle in his body intensely convulsed .
He gritted his teeth and braved this inhumane torture .
The entire Abyssal Jail fell into silence .
But the starry sky slowly flickered in the darkness .
While Gu Qing Shan was being converted into the Demon Dragon bit by bit, the entire space of the Abyssal Jail was moving .
As if some preparation within the Abyssal Jail had been triggered .
Right above Gu Qing Shan’s head, star after star began to show up .
The number of stars in the sky kept increasing until it looked like an actual night sky on earth .
The stars were being arranged into a particular pattern .
As soon as the pattern was fully formed, some sort of distinct moment arrived .
The entire sky of darkness shattered .
All the stars above were stripped out .
They gathered at once in the void of space to form a humanoid figure .
This humanoid figure descended in front of Gu Qing Shan and turned into an almost realistic person .
It was an old man .
He was considerably tall and buffed, bald with a full silver beard on his chin, he donned a black cape that was draped over a neat military uniform that gave him a dignified and solemn appearance .

As he looked down at Gu Qing Shan, his icy gaze became a bit warmer .
[So there really was someone willing to sacrifice themselves to kill the Demon Dragon]
The bald old man pulled the black cape off of himself and threw it out .
The black cape automatically attached itself to Gu Qing Shan’s body .
Half of the intense burning pain was alleviated almost right away .
Gu Qing Shan regained his clarity .
He touched the black cape that suddenly appeared on his body .
A frigid sensation seeped out from the cape and helped him counteract the pain from the erosion of the Demon Dragon’s power .
Gu Qing Shan wiped his face .
He was soaked in the cold sweat that came from the pain .
[The cape can only suppress the Demon Dragon’s power for now . Stand up, let us talk first] the bald old man told him .
Gu Qing Shan stood up and asked: “Thank you very much . May I ask who you are?”
[I am the Chairman of the Total War Joint Military Committee, as well as the strongest Combatant of humanity] the bald old man replied .
“Greetings” Gu Qing Shan observed the other party and replied .
His body seemed to have been created from some sort of spell and didn’t contain any actual power .
But Gu Qing Shan was somehow able to sense the unparalleled aura of overwhelming power he gave off .
This meant that the other party was so unimaginably powerful that a mere image that couldn’t fully manifest was affected by the immense power of his real body .
The bald old man told him: [You don’t have much time, so we’ll make this short]
“Please go ahead”
[The Demon Dragon carried humanity’s dream of creating a weapon that surpasses Soul Artifacts, but it failed]
[Originally, the Demon Dragon should have been killed right away]
[But we had sowed a Causality Law on it that simply cannot be removed . Any human that killed the Demon Dragon would turn into the next Demon Dragon, a process that will never end]

“Couldn’t you make it so that the Demon Dragon died in battle?” Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but ask .
[We could not, any person who ordered it to go and die would also inherit the Demon Dragon’s power and become the new Demon Dragon . This was the strongest level of Causality Law, none of us could do anything about it]
[Because of that, through our discussions, we had the Demon Dragon watch over the Abyssal Fate Weaver’s corpse]
[In fact, everyone understood perfectly well that one day, sooner or later, this weapon would run out of control]
The bald old man smiled sarcastically: [Humanity is great, that is certainly not wrong, but humans are selfish . When faced with this weapon that would surely run out of control, no one was willing to sacrifice themselves]
The bald old man then looked straight at Gu Qing Shan and spoke with a serious expression: [That is why this issue can only be solved by the strongest human, me]
Gu Qing Shan was shocked: “You’ve come up with a way to destroy the Demon Dragon’s power?”
[No, that is not so . If I do that, you will also die]
The bald old man appeared emotional .
[In truth, after many long years of research, I finally found a remedial measure]
[Because the Law of Causality was a Mystic-type power, it was next to impossible to use any other types of power to channel the Demon Dragon’s power . But after much contemplation, I finally came up with a solution that would allow the Demon Dragon’s power to be slowly assimilated by human bloodline to become human power]
“Isn’t that essentially purifying the Demon Dragon’s power and turning it into my own power?” Gu Qing Shan asked .
[Correct] the bald old man replied, [This method will take an exceedingly long time and an extreme amount of untold effort to fully complete, but this is the only solution that I was able to come up with]
“What kind of solution is it exactly?” Gu Qing Shan had to ask .
The bald old man squinted his eyes and slowly replied:
[To be able to channel a Mystic-type power, it would naturally come from Mystic-type]
