Chapter 375: Death

“What! You don’t have to seek death like that!” Ye Fei Li exclaimed in shock.

Zhang Ying hao just looked at Gu Qing Shan without saying anything yet.

“Don’t misunderstand, I only found a technique that allows my soul to leave my body and go to Huang Quan” Gu Qing Shan explained.

Zhang Ying hao and Ye Fei Li exchanged looks.

“Is that true?” Ye Fei Li pursued.

“It’s true” Gu Qing Shan sincerely answered.

The two of them were now a bit more convinced.

“What do you need us to do?” it was now that Zhang Ying hao spoke up.

“Protect my body, because if my body is hurt, even if my soul manages to come back, once I can’t enter my body, I will have died for real”

“Can you really go to Huang Quan?” Ye Fei Li was still a bit frightened.

“It’s fine, there shouldn’t be any problems” Gu Qing Shan told him.

“Can we come as well?”

“You need to be at Ascended realm first”

“Hah, I’m at Qi Training stage 7”

“I’ve just reached Foundation realm”

…

“Alright, I’ll arrange some people”

Zhang Ying hao added with a very serious expression: “There are so many weird demonic creatures in Huang Quan, but the hells seems to be forced to run away from Huang Quan that they appear at the human realm. Something very unusual must have happened, make sure to be careful as much as possible”

“Don’t worry, I’ll immediately return if the situation is too much to handle” Gu Qing Shan assured him.

[Sir, please carefully select a location to preserve your body, I will enable the highest safety protocols to protect it] Impartial Goddess also spoke up.

Gu Qing Shan turned around to look at the mountaintop mansion then decided: “In the mansion is fine”

Everyone returned to the mansion.

Zhang Ying hao took out a phone and began to arrange the necessary personnel.

Ye Fei Li also said: “I’ll be here to guard you”

Impartial Goddess: [Currently drafting security measures please wait a minute sir]

“Very well” Gu Qing Shan agreed, and then tapped his Inventory Bag to take out a large amount of common formation plates.

Bai Hua sect has a lot of reserved resources, including a wealth of various kinds of formation plates.

After taking them out, Gu Qing Shan began to set them up according to military standards, finally ending up with a few dozen large-scale formations.

He has so much spirit stones on hand that using this much wouldn’t even bother him.

When his soul leaves for Huang Quan, his body will become extremely vulnerable without any means to protect himself.

Arranging these formations properly will directly correlate to his life, so there’s no reason to skimp on them.

“I’ll make it so that only living people can enter” Gu Qing Shan muttered.

He then activated everything.

It was now that Zhang Ying hao’s people came.

Zhang Ying hao then began giving the assassins their individual tasks.

Ye Fei Li silently stood by Gu Qing Shan, cautiously paying attention.

Everything has been well-prepared.

Gu Qing Shan sat down cross-legged and began to form the hand seals.

Both [Sealed Body Yin Shift] and [Soul Comes Soul Goes] must be activated at the same time without any pause.

If the caster uses [Sealed Body Yin Shift] first, their body will enter a dead state, unable to activate [Soul Comes Soul Goes].

And if they use [Soul Comes Soul Goes] first, their soul will escape their body, unable to be revived. (1)

Gu Qing Shan formed both seals in his hand, stopping at the very last trigger.

“I’ll die now, see you later” Gu Qing Shan said.

He activated his spirit energy and infused them into the two seals.

Instantly, his eyes closed by themselves as both his hands dropped down limp.

Gu Qing Shan’s life signs disappeared completely.

“He died just like that? How incredible”

Tong Tong who was watching from the side stuck out her tongue.

“It’s only a temporary death, after he goes to Huang Quan to check the situation there, he’ll be back” Ye Fei Li emphasized on that.

Everyone who was watching couldn’t help but express the strangeness of the scene.

Zhang Ying hao cleared his throat: “Alright, everyone get back to work, although there’s a lot of defensive power concentrated here, patrols are still necessary. Make sure to report on any situations, we cannot let anything go wrong”

“This is saving the world, brothers. If the thing called ‘merit’ exists, you’ll probably gather enough after this to go to heaven”

The hit men all received their orders.

They’ve all tasted the benefits of cultivation and even got to watch such an incredible sight, so they’re highly motivated to make sure this unprecedented operation goes well.

They scattered neatly and orderly.

The mansion became silent again.

Liao Xing has already gone to the S.W Divine Temple to make a new spacecraft.

This place is protected by both Zhang Ying hao and Ye Fei Li.

“What do you think?” Ye Fei Li asked.

“Besides us, Impartial Goddess is also monitoring the sky at every moment, there shouldn’t be any problems” Zhang Ying hao answered.0

“Then what about him?”

“He only has himself to count on” Zhang Ying hao sighed.

“That’s true, going to Huang Quan, no one can help him with such a thing no matter what they do” Ye Fei Li commented.

The two of them looked over Gu Qing Shan’s pseudo-dead body, a bit worried.

Suddenly, two swords appeared from thin air.

They are Gu Qing Shan’s personal swords.

They circled around Gu Qing Shan’s body a bit, then started to let out sounds towards another direction.

After a few seconds, the swords disappeared without a trace.

“What just happened?” Ye Fei Li was surprised.

“If I have to guess, they’re probably following Gu Qing Shan to Huang Quan” Zhang Ying hao commented.

Gu Qing Shan slowly closed his eyes.

His senses shut down his body went limp uncontrollably.

First, his breathing stopped.

His heart beat slowed down greatly.

His body temperature dropped.

His spirit energy all went back into his Dantian.

His heart stopped.

At the same time, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but opened his eyes wide.

He stepped out from his own body.

The other ‘him’ sat still, cross-legged.

Gu Qing Shan looked around.

Tong Tong looked at the ‘him’ on the ground in shock.

The group started to speak.

But their eyes stayed on the ‘him’ that’s sitting.

Gu Qing Shan tried waving his hand in front of Zhang Ying hao’s face.

Zhang Ying hao didn’t react at all to that, only looking down at the other ‘him’ in worry.

Ye Fei Li also didn’t notice him, but a bloody glow fluctuated around his body, clearly anxious.

No one saw the Gu Qing Shan that was standing.

Gu Qing Shan understood.

He’s dead.

He’s now in his soul form.

A strange power that comes from his hand seal then enveloped him, showing him an invisible crack in space.

This is the power of [Soul Comes Soul Goes]

It’s guiding Gu Qing Shan from the human realm into the space vortex.

And the passage to Huang Quan lies in the space vortex.

“So I can go to Huang Quan now” Gu Qing Shan muttered.

The Earth sword suddenly jumped out from the void of space and spoke: 「 I’ll come with you, the situation over there must be extremely chaotic, and you going alone would be too dangerous 」

“You can go as well?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

As soon as he did, he recalled that the Earth sword has already been to the space vortex as well as the entrance to Huang Quan.

So the Earth sword can come with him!

Gu Qing Shan felt much more assured.

To a sword cultivator, having his sword in hand is already all the assurance he’ll ever need.

「 It’s not just me, Chao Yin is also a weapon forged by Divinity, it can come as well 」the Earth sword spoke.

Sure enough, the Chao Yin sword also appeared from the void of space.

The fish from inside jumped out from inside the Chao Yin sword and swam around Gu Qing Shan.

“Chao Yin can come as well? That’s great! I’m now a lot more confident” Gu Qing Shan smiled as he said so.

“Let’s go!”

Taking his swords with him, he went into the invisible crack in space.

Note:

(1) The combined techniques: the reason why these two techniques need to be used together isn’t explained by the author, only implied, so I’ll explain them to those who don’t understand.

In Chinese folklore, as well as most novels that deals with this subject, the soul will naturally leave a dead body and starts to be summoned to Huang Quan, similar to how Ye Fei Li’s girlfriend was, but if they obey this summon, they won’t be able to return, thus being permanently dead. A person is understood to be only alive when both their body and soul are alive, so if his soul leaves his body while his body isn’t dead, it’ll live on in a vegetative state, which is why it was mentioned that he’ll be unable to return, since the body isn’t synchronized to the soul anymore, same goes with why he needed his body to be protected while he goes to Huang Quan.

So the first technique makes his body dead, allowing his soul to leave his body willingly without being yanked out, while the second technique allows him to return from Huang Quan to enter and reanimate the dead body when it does.
