335: Chapter 27 He Has Always Been There (2-in-1 Large Chapter)_2 335: Chapter 27 He Has Always Been There (2-in-1 Large Chapter)_2 ”But in recent years, the sensation of the fireseed has grown weaker and weaker.”
The Tomb Guardian murmured, “The spiritual waves I can sense from it have also dwindled.”
”Until the last ti…
there was a disturbance in Qingzhong, familiar spiritual waves emanated, and those waves were calling for help…
So through the dream, I found you as the bridge.”
Gu Shen ca to a sudden realization.
This was the reason for his last eting with the Tomb Guardian, just before the Divine Descent.
Was it Mr.
Gu Changzhi’s fireseed power?
Gu Shen asked the question that everyone in the Five Continents Federation wanted to ask.
“Then, does this also an that Mr.
Gu Changzhi…
has been alive all this ti?”
In the apostle battle at Da Du, Song Ci awakened the “White Parrot Emblem,” fought to the death with two apostles from the Source Tower, and after that day, everyone in the Five Continents believed…
that Gu Changzhi was still alive and was about to awaken!
But in truth, only a very few knew that this token was not Gu Changzhi’s!
This inside story…
only a handful of people knew.
Aside from Gu Nanfeng, who sought the token from the Light City in West Continent, the Light God’s Seat who gifted the divine item, and Gu Shen…
no one else knew.
Even Song Ci, who was directly involved, was not inford until after the fight.
The East Continent Federation breathed a huge sigh of relief.
But Gu Shen could not relax in his heart…
Even after seeing him in the Spiritual Divine Domain, he couldn’t be sure whether the man who once supported the East Continent was truly awake or not.
This was very important for the East Continent.
“Of course…”
The Tomb Guardian’s answer ca without a second of hesitation.
Master Qianye responded slowly, “He has always been alive, never dead…
Every trace of Extraordinary Essence lingering in Qingzhong Mausoleum, every ray of sunlight that protects Changye, is his embodint.”
Since Qingzhong was built.
Since Gu Changzhi “moved” into the mausoleum.
There had been no turmoil or disasters in Changye District, the weather had been favorable for years, everything peaceful.
“You know what I an…
people care about the kind of life they can see.” Gu Shen enunciated each word, “If he must sleep within Qingzhong to keep Changye at peace, then Mr.
Gu Changzhi’s sacrifices…
would not be acknowledged.
The people outside would not believe it was the power of the Divine Throne that protected them.
One day, they will co to see for themselves.”
And once they see this scene.
The mausoleum, empty of people.
In the Four Seasons Wilderness, there would only be a withered tree and a Tomb Guardian.
At that ti…
how much respect, admiration, and worship would be left for the “Divine Throne”?
“…”
The Tomb Guardian fell silent.
Master Qianye’s silence was itself an answer.
Her eyes dimd a bit…
Gu Shen bit his lip, “After the Divine Descent…
I had a private conversation with Mr.
Gu Changzhi.”
Upon hearing this, the Tomb Guardian’s eyes lit up from where she sat on the withered tree.
After fulfilling the wish of building the fireseed as a bridge, she severed the spiritual link.
As for what happened afterward, involving the Divine Throne, she did not know…
She only vaguely saw through divination that Gu Shen had gained an extra “gifted” Spiritual Domain and a wisp of a deceased apostle’s soul.
Master Qianye’s lips were a bit dry, “What did he…
say to you?”
”After the Divine Descent…
I saw Mr.
Gu Changzhi’s spirit, in a pure Golden Divine Domain.” Gu Shen looked around and murmured, “It wasn’t the Four Seasons Wilderness…
There was a blazing sun hanging high, and besides that, there was endless radiance.”
”What…
did he say to you?” the Tomb Guardian’s voice trembled slightly.
Gu Shen was stunned.
So there were things in this world that even divination could not calculate.
Master Qianye had been guarding Qingzhong Mausoleum for so many years, never leaving even a step…
The outside world doubted, many wavered, but because of her presence, people ultimately believed that Gu Changzhi’s Divine Throne was still alive, just resting in Qingzhong for “special” reasons.
But in truth, she did not know the reality.
The “omniscient” Tomb Guardian did not even know if the one she guarded was alive or dead…
If this got out, many people’s faith would collapse, wouldn’t it?
Gu Shen took a deep breath and said, “That ‘Divine Descent’…
was a seed planted by Mr.
Gu Changzhi in the God of Wine!”
”In the Old World, the God of Wine once secretly spied on Mr.
Gu Changzhi…
and that’s when the seed of the Divine Descent was planted.”
The Tomb Guardian couldn’t help but let out a sigh of realization.
This was a foreshadowing planted decades ago.
No wonder…
no wonder the final “Divine Descent” could co.
She and the Prophet from the Source Tower, because of ancient legacies and the uniqueness of Transcendent abilities, could see into the future to a certain extent, but humans have limits…
No matter how much they divined, it was hard to see those who held the fireseed, the “Divine Throne”!
Gu Shen continued, “The God of Wine suffered Divine Punishnt…”
He recounted Gu Changzhi’s Divine Oracle from the Golden Divine Domain.
For the sin of peeping…
the God of Wine had his eyes gouged out, becoming a blind man.
And should he open his eyes again, defying the punishnt, Gu Changzhi’s Divine Thought would descend again, bringing an even more terrifying retribution!
This was certainly a heart-piercing statent.
After experiencing one “coincidence”…
the God of Wine must have developed a psychological shadow.
After this battle, no matter how he analyzed, he could not trace the final truth of the Divine Descent…
The only reasonable conclusion he could think of was that the entire battle of apostles in Da Du was orchestrated by Gu Changzhi.
Inviting the enemy into a trap.
He didn’t believe in fate, so he jumped.
So, he went blind.
In this situation, would he dare to jump again?
Though she did not directly go through it, just hearing Gu Shen’s description made the Tomb Guardian feel the thrilling tension of that divine battle…
“For a short ti, the God of Wine is unlikely to act rashly.” Gu Shen said solemnly, “Mr.
Gu Changzhi, at the end of the Divine Descent, answered many of my questions.”
”It seed he knew everything happening in the outside world…”
”Gu Nanfeng used the highest seat authority to modify identity codes and traveled to North Continent…”
”And the matter of borrowing the apostle’s token from Light City, he seed to know as well.”
When the Tomb Guardian heard this…
her expression under the mask beca a bit strange.
Her chest suddenly felt light.
A heavy stone that had hung there for a long ti seed to lift lightly.
These words were enough to prove that Gu Changzhi was still alive.
He knew she had used the “highest seat authority” to help Gu Nanfeng escape Changye and head to North Continent…
and he knew everything that happened afterward.
“Right, if I rember correctly, he ntioned you, called you…” Gu Shen thought of sothing important and paused briefly, then said seriously, “Xiao Ye.”
Xiao Ye…
a distant yet familiar na.
A pang of bitterness surged in the Tomb Guardian’s heart, she took a deep breath, looked at the wind and clouds rolling over the wilderness behind her, and murmured with a smile, “I knew it…
You’ve always been here…
and watching the world outside…”
But why never give a response to the outside?
She had waited bitterly for so many years, so many years…
It was too lonely here.
Ti was too long.
“May I ask, Mr.
Gu Changzhi…
where exactly is he?”
Gu Shen saw the joy and lancholy, the sorrow and darkness in Master Qianye’s eyes, waited for a long ti as her emotions gradually cald, and then tentatively opened his mouth to ask about Mr.
Gu Changzhi’s “resting place.”
The Tomb Guardian pointed behind her.
Beyond the ancient tree, vast Changye, boundless and endless.
“He is right there…
in a very far, faraway place.”
”At the end of Qingzhong.”
”Also, at the end of the dream.”
…

(I apologize, everyone, very sorry, the day-ti update was incomplete today because the climax is approaching, and I spent a long ti on the outline.
Happy Labor Day, I’ll make it up tomorrow morning.)
