Light Fortress Chapter 2003 - 55: The End of the World

The fog in the snow valley of Moon City was dispersed by steam, and the Red Emperor’s followers from the past century arrived once again at this fortress.

However, what they faced was the "Steel Fortress" of the new world!

"Prepare to meet the enemy."

Rust Bone decisively gave the order, "Those bearing the Red Emperor’s banner, kill without mercy."

The outcome of this war was without suspense, but what he had to face was the strongest under the Red Emperor’s command, the Golden Ape!

Their eyes met over a distance of a thousand meters.

Following his spiritual sense, Rust Bone searched through the mist at the end of the snow valley, seeing the Golden Ape holding the banner high, but this was not the figure who truly made him feel "dangerous"... In front of the Golden Ape stood a red-cloaked swordsman, whose sword tip pointed to where he was locked.

The Red Emperor?!

Before Rust Bone could react, a huge and conspicuous warning sign appeared on the main ship screen!

A loud "boom"!

A tremendously vast energy collided with the main ship’s protective shield! The main ship immediately started to shake!

"Protect Zhou Jiren and Zhong Wei! Do not let them die!"

Rust Bone turned back to give instructions, then rushed out of the main ship, hovering in the air, prepared to use the bronze sword to counter the Red Emperor’s Sword Qi—

But at this moment, time suddenly became very "slow"!

Rust Bone saw a shadow emerge and stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

"Bai Shu...?!"

His pupils slightly contracted, but he immediately realized that this Bai Shu of the restarted world had not yet refined the Battle Fire to become the Changye Divine Throne.

According to the original world line, this guy should be hiding in Qinghe District.

"Gu Shen sent me."

Bai Shu softly said, "While I don’t know what happened... it’s clear this world is crazier than I imagined, even the dead from thirty years ago have come out to cause trouble."

Although the [Reverse Flow] domain is very strong, for an Origin Strong person like Rust Bone, the impact is greatly reduced.

So, the two conversed in the significantly slowed time-space.

"It’s hard to explain to you." Rust Bone said, "The rules of this world are a bit complex..."

"What I need to know, I already know."

Bai Shu said calmly, "No need to explain to me, I’m here to help you fight. Protect Zhou Jiren, Zhong Wei, and Luo Er, as for you... you probably don’t need my protection, right?"

Rust Bone smiled.

The moment Bai Shu appeared, his once tense Heart Lake instantly became much more settled!

If there’s a need to protect someone, there’s no domain in this world more useful than [Reverse Flow]!

Though he’s skilled in attacking, holding off both the Golden Ape and the Red Emperor at the same time is still a bit straining... but if Bai Shu joins the battlefield, the scales of this battle will tip again!

"Leave the tricky one to you."

Bai Shu said calmly, "The Golden Ape is mine to deal with... I’ll kill him again."

During the Xinyang Fortress battle, he missed the chance to save Li Rou due to his duel with the Golden Ape, resulting in a fierce struggle during that fight.

But this time.

Under the arrangement of fate, the Golden Ape at his peak crossed the tide of history, spanning thirty years, and appeared before Bai Shu once again.

Bai Shu would no longer harbor any concerns, he could unleash himself and enjoy this "one battle" that was rightfully his!

...

...

The heavy snow flew, the world dimmed.

Gu Shen slowly opened his eyes, stood up, and looked at the stele illuminated entirely by Chi Huo before him.

The Traveler God Seat inscribed these Ancient Texts upon the stele before "passing," for future generations to study, seemingly unwilling for these Ancient Texts to be lost.

According to Gu Shen’s speculation.

These Ancient Texts detail the Traveler’s method of "creating portals"!

The ancient secret art of the Traveler Tribe, arrayed and floating in the air... At this moment, Gu Shen extended his palm, slowly pressing down on the Ancient Texts, causing radiant azure light to ooze out—

Buzz buzz buzz!

The void trembled, numerous Ancient Texts pieced together, forming a portal before Gu Shen!

"It is indeed the art of ’creating portals’."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows, reversed his hand to dissipate the radiant light.

"Gu Shen... have you deciphered it yet?"

Turing’s voice of inquiry came from Initial Ship.

Gu Shen raised his head, looked toward the dark mass of Sacrificial from the Traveler Tribe ahead.

"The Ancient Texts have been successfully deciphered."

He whispered, "The Initial Ship can prepare to set sail."

He gradually approached Initial Ship, drawing the Fire Extinguishing Sword, during this process of deciphering... his "Chi Huo" seemed to have grown even stronger!

This matter was quite peculiar.

Previously, he exhausted his mind trying to break Chi Huo through the "Divine Infant" restriction, but now in this Dream World, Chi Huo was instead infiltrating rapidly!

The airship roared once more amidst the blizzard!

Azure airwaves scoured the Snowfield, Gu Shen suddenly turned back, glanced at the "traveller" chained to the stone wall, the Ancient Language Skill that could quickly reach the end of the Dream World through "portals", though it had been successfully deciphered... yet the whereabouts of "Extinguishing Candle" he was eager to discover remained unknown.

The whereabouts of Extinguishing Candle were not recorded on the stone wall.

This was somewhat beyond Gu Shen’s expectations.

The traveller was nailed to death by Extinguishing Candle!

Before dying, it could inscribe the "portal" art with spiritual power, preventing such Ancient Texts from being lost, so why not leave the identity information of the "Master of Extinguishing Candle"?

If Extinguishing Candle fell into the Old World, the Traveler Tribe could search for it.

If the Master of Extinguishing Candle reappeared in the human world, the giants would also be able to "take vengeance"... these creatures, burdened with immense hatred, feared not even the Netherworld King, presumably would not back down at all facing the Master of Extinguishing Candle.
