Chapter 941: Secret Upon Secret!
The golden light practically erupted from Gu Qing Shan’s body .
As they sensed the power of the golden light, the vicious dead people were no longer filled with killing intent like they were just a moment ago and instead stood still without moving .
Gu Qing Shan looked around .
Everything turned still .
Within this image, no one except himself could move .
Even the encroaching darkness that contained the Law of Total Destruction was stopped by the appearance of the golden light .
Under the golden shine of his Merit, Gu Qing Shan had finally gotten a path of survival within his Measure Tribulation .
——–the Law of Heaven and Earth binds all things and all living beings, but it was also affected by them in return .
Cultivators who kill and destroy as they wished would face their retribution within the Measure Tribulation and would be mercilessly erased by the Law of Heaven and Earth .
But those who granted salvation to other living beings, always doing their best to uphold the Law of Heaven and Earth would be granted protection and the favor of the Law .
The Law itself hoped that such people would be able to continue to survive——
This was what the ‘measure’ in Measure Tribulation meant .
And it was only now that Gu Qing Shan was truly going through a Measure Tribulation!
After a moment of stillness, a change occurred in the image .
Out of thin air .
A cluster of absolute pure light descended from above, neutralizing the golden light of Merit from Gu Qing Shan’s body .
As Gu Qing Shan looked at the cluster of light, he felt like there were countless tiny voices informing him about the nature of the pure light .
This felt almost like a sound in the wind, but also like various people whispering to him .
Gu Qing Shan suddenly understood!
The Law of Heaven and Earth itself is talking to me!
It’s telling me that this was the first light ever to be created, something that contained a secret even deeper than the mystery of the worlds themselves .
This cluster of light is called the Inextinguishable Origin, something originally watched over by the legendary true Deities, an object that not just anyone would be able to obtain even if they wanted to .
Gu Qing Shan’s thoughts stopped .
So, the Merit I obtained from saving the Samsara world was actually that great .
The cluster of light seemed to be attracted to the golden light emerging from his body, turned into a thin line, and flew towards the perfect golden circle behind his head .
The cluster of light wrapped itself around the golden circle and gave off a gentle white light .
Illuminated by this light, a certain understanding appeared in Gu Qing Shan’s heart .
He had just learnt a true secret .
A secret that involved life and death .
“So that’s what happened”
Gu Qing Shan muttered and turned his gaze towards the countless dead people on the ground below .
It turns out that—–
The Inextinguishable Origin had appeared because Gu Qing Shan managed to accomplish something extremely improbable .
He massacred countless dead people .
The dead people of Huang Quan were those who were no longer alive, thus the final form of living beings .
Normally, a life form could only be in a state of either being alive or dead .
Once the body dies, the soul would escape from the body, entering a state of death and becoming a dead person .
And a dead person must reincarnate, otherwise, they would die for good .
This was the cycle of life and death .
But Gu Qing Shan had used the power of the Devil King Warden Rod to break the cycle for those dead people and push them into an extremely rare state .
Dissipated souls .
After a soul dissipates, their final essence that contained the mystery of their lives would remain .
They weren’t in a state of being dead or alive, but rather, a more primal state .
Primal chaos .
Primal chaos was the origin of all things, compared to beings, things, or worlds, it was the deepest mystery hidden within the Laws, that which created everything .
That was why when Gu Qing Shan pushed so many souls of the dead into the primal chaos state, he had actually accrued a rare kind of karma .
——because the method he used was an extremely incorrect one, these dead people were rejected by Primal Chaos itself, unable to become one with it, nor return to the cycle of life and death .
Incorrect?
As he heard the Law of Heaven and Earth’s description, he had a lot of questions .

He silently asked the War God UI: “What does it mean by ‘incorrect method’?”
The War God UI remained silent for a moment before popping up a few glowing lines of text: [The power of a Samsara Divine Armament is derived from the Samsara itself . Despite being relatively weak, it is still there, making those entities unsuitable to enter Primal Chaos]
“That’s why the Law of Heaven and Earth took the initiative to show up here during my Measure Tribulation?”
[Correct, you might have to make a decision now]
At the same time, Gu Qing Shan heard the countless tiny whispers in his ears again .
Although he couldn’t tell what the voices were saying, Gu Qing Shan still understood what it was trying to say——– and it was a very miraculous thing .
The Law of Heaven and Earth had used the Inextinguishable Origin as a catalyst to inform him to make a decision .
Through his Merit, he would be able to save these entities that weren’t even considered to be souls and have them return to their death .
This way, the dead people would return to become souls and thus return to their cycle of life and death .
But there was another choice .
With his Merit, Gu Qing Shan could have these entities thoroughly scattered and become a part of Primal Chaos .
This would feed the power of Primal Chaos, but these dead people would never be able to return to the cycle of life and death again .
They would permanently become pure power for Primal Chaos .
And the choice was in Gu Qing Shan’s hands .
Will he make these villainous entities return to Huang Quan and suffer, or would he make them thoroughly disappear?
The lingering voices in Gu Qing Shan’s ears disappeared for now .
The Law of Heaven and Earth were waiting for him to make his choice .
A moment of silence .
Gu Qing Shan recalled how he killed these villains back then .
“The heavens favor life, this much is true, so normally, I don’t like to push others too much into a corner…”
He muses, then continued: “But for villains like these, I feel like there’s no need to give them any sympathy, so I’ll have them disappear for good”
Following his answer, the Law of Heaven and Earth responded .
The glow around Gu Qing Shan’s body erupted brightly once again, turned into a blinding sun that hung in the sky .
Under the illumination of the sun, the quadrillion dead people turned into sand that crumbled away, sinking into the desert below .

All the dead people in this world were scattered to the sea of sand, no longer capable of returning to the cycle of life and death .
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[You’ve learnt the true secret about life and death]
[You’ve automatically become a keeper of the secret]
[You’ve contributed power to Primal Chaos]
[The Laws of Reality have been strengthened by an insignificantly tiny amount]
[The Laws’ attitude towards you have changed]
[You have received the blessing of the Laws of Reality: World Origin]
[Your World Technique has become more stable]
[From now on, you will have obtained a complete Inner Plane world, it will change and manifest various worlds in accordance with the method you used to create it]
[Additionally, your Measure Tribulation is complete]
Oom——-
The world collapsed .
All the images shattered and collapsed at once .
The darkness that represented the Law of Total Destruction also faded away .
Gu Qing Shan was pushed by an intense force and suddenly returned to the Bramble Tree ship .
In front of his eyes, a line of glowing text appeared with one final message:
[You’ve become a Paragon realm cultivator]
Gu Qing Shan was surprised .
I’m already… Paragon realm?
Why don’t I feel any different?
While thinking that, he suddenly felt his forehead becoming cooler .
A sky-high pillar of light erupted from his forehead that shot straight up the space vortex .
His spirit energy was increasing at breakneck speed .

10%
20%
40%
70%!
His spirit energy had increased by a total of 70%!
Normally, the total amount of spirit energy a cultivator had determined the power of their attacks .
Which meant, with this reinforcement of spirit energy, Gu Qing Shan’s fighting strength had almost doubled .
He clenched his fist, feeling intense fighting spirit as he looked at the countless creatures within the space vortex .
Power!
I’ve finally become stronger!
Feeling himself being reinforced with this vast spirit energy, Gu Qing Shan felt that he would easily be able to fight against the powerful enemies he couldn’t before .
Perhaps, I can even—–
“Are you ok?”
A female voice sounded next to him that interrupted his thoughts .
Gu Qing Shan turned around .
It was Lin .
She was wearing a set of daunting armor, both hands equipped with a pair of elemental gauntlets, completely unharmed . This was Lin at her peak .
Lin observed Gu Qing Shan a bit and smiled: “Well done, you’ve finally broken through, what do you say I spar with you a bit seriously?”
“Hah…”
“Hm? You were full of fighting spirit just now, why are you suddenly dejected?”
“I don’t want to discuss this topic with you”
