Chapter 1 The Beginning

The blast of mega-source energy was like a high-pitched "boom!!!"

The Initial landed head-on into it.

Amidst the cataclysmic collision, the nitrogen was pulverized, but Turing knew that this impact succeeded not because the Initial was sturdy enough, but because Gu Shen's "Extinguishing Fire Sword" was too powerful and perverse.

All the force would be extinguished by the sword. On the other side, A Fu, stationed in the main control room, came back to his senses.

When that source-matter storm struck just now, it was almost scared out of its wits. It had guarded the icy sea for thousands of years, and suffered such a calamity as soon as it left. If it had known…

Someone also knew where the divine bow, Extinguishing Candle, was now. Gu Shen said earnestly and solemnly, "By the way, get rid of this evildoer who used [Extinguishing Candle]. You can swear with your soul that you will handle this matter perfectly and find out the truth."

Yin Chi opened the eighth rerun mission and came to this desolate place to meet Bai Xueshan Ren. "Take good care of yourself."

Amidst the roaring air currents, the Initial rapidly docked behind the distant, towering white snow mountain. A Fu saw clearly the "layers of white bones" hidden on the snow, illuminated by the fiery waves, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, asking, "What's buried underground?!"

This time, he was going to negotiate alone. If he encountered an accident, the "Initial" would be there to respond. So, the scene was silent for a dozen seconds. Bai Ba, who had once been fleeting, asked in Qizhou, "Is the Qizhou coordinates more important than the life and death of the Traveler God?"

He…

…Knows where [Extinguishing Candle] is?

Turing's expression was solemn, and he murmured, "It seems the Traveler God is already dead."

The first stop for the Initial after leaving the icy sea was the "Calamity Barrier" left by the former Pluto.

With the technological prowess of Qizhou civilization, the "airships" produced would not be able to withstand the attacks of the Bai Xueshan giants. Once they descended into the barrier, they would likely be destroyed.

This place had already become the habitat of the Traveler tribe!

He didn't know if his carefully prepared seventh negotiation would succeed. Ling Shen suddenly became serious. "Of course…"

But Chu Ling made this choice without a second of hesitation. A Fu frowned: "We're going to land in this way?" Gu Shen appeared calm, but secretly gripped the Extinguishing Fire Sword.

"Speak."

This was the most crucial part of the negotiation, and Hong Yue had to make a move.

Every step was on the Traveler's "corpse."

Next Extinguishing Candle, had once used this to shoot and injure, leaving a deep shadow on the god of Haozhou. Turing looked at Gu Shen meaningfully. When the source-matter storm descended, she opened all the defenses of the Initial according to procedure. Initially, the ominous cloud and A Fu's ominous premonition became even stronger. "Find [Extinguishing Candle]."

Because she knew.

The "negotiation" he proposed was just a formality. A moment later, Gu Shen stood at the foot of the white snow mountain. Turing quickly stopped him.

"Of course it's confirmed."

Although born in a starship civilization, A Fu had never truly entered the [Old World]… This was its first time seeing "Ceri's" desolate scene. Pieces of land, ravaged and broken by the source-matter storm, floated in the void. It was a heartbreaking sight. The living conditions here were simply too poor. This unfamiliar line, accompanied by rolling air currents, washed over Hong Yue's face. This short! Sorry p.s.: (Ah, always poking at you, today I'll even lower the clock to remind you) The ominous aura left by Pluto was too strong! The Initial's source-energy shield had already begun to suffer "erosion"!

That's right, Extinguishing Candle was the antithesis of Qing Ling's light. Accompanied by the undulations of the snow mountain, the entire landmass floating in the void seemed to be trembling!

But he knew that Gu was burdened. He looked at the upright robot and said, "Does this count as…" Hong Yue quietly looked at the little fellow in front of her.

Anyone who saw this scene and heard this sentence would feel horrified.

Shen said: "The outside of Pluto's former territory is a big surprise." A moment later, the Bai Xueshan giant impatiently asked, "What are the coordinates of Qizhou?"

[Extinguishing Candle] was the most powerful weapon of the starship civilization back then. This was the ultimate artifact that the master forged for the Hunting God. A Fu was so angry that her teeth itched: "Gu, are you toying with me?"

The Bai Xueshan giant looked at the young woman in front of him. There was obvious "anger" and "mockery" in the mental emotions it conveyed.

She was clearly in a state of chaos. The one who laughed last was not him. Gu Shen did not answer its question. Instead, he raised the Extinguishing Fire Sword, pushed open the Initial's hatch, and looked towards the distant, towering white snow mountain.

A Fu asked, "Where are you looking for the master's legacy?" "Long story short,"

The Bai Xueshan giant's pupils widened.

He quickly said, "Although I carry Pluto's aura, I am not the former Pluto. I have come to see you today to make up for the promises that fellow once made to the Traveler tribe. I will tell you the coordinates of Qizhou without compensation, and help you rescue the Traveler God trapped within Qizhou."

The last negotiation broke down because Gu Shen "demanded" an exchange condition from the little fellow in front of him. To resolve this source-matter storm, the Initial's "energy shield" was not enough. Gu Shen extended two fingers and pointed to the stone tablet behind the Bai Xueshan giant. He said with a smile, "What's the rush? I'll come to you anyway. I can't go back on the coordinates, can I? Don't you hate that [Extinguishing Candle] killed your master, forcing him to not even be able to return his physical body, and could only divide his soul to struggle to survive?"

"That's right."

The sleeping Bai Xueshan giant slowly awakened?

"What the hell is this place?"

Last time, he only deciphered half of the ancient inscriptions on the stone tablet.

He didn't want to touch it, or he would explode like that source-matter storm just now. A moment later, Ling and A Fu exchanged glances. A Fu's eyes lit up.

With the current degree of "Chi Huo's" awakening, even if the negotiations broke down, he had the strength to "confront" them. Coupled with this fire sword... Perhaps he could consider resolving the problem with violence. "I'm here to negotiate." "Let me go up and read the ancient inscriptions on the stone tablet. I'll tell you." But the "arrow marks" on this stone wall were obviously left within the last eighty years. After the former Pluto made a deal with the Travelers, Extinguishing Candle appeared again!

This time.

Turing啧啧 sighed with emotion. He looked at the thin, cicada-wing-like illusory longsword in Hong Yue's palm, and couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it.

A Fu murmured, "Isn't the next battle one…"

He carried the thin, cicada-wing-like Extinguishing Fire Sword, and conveyed his thoughts. "Count, it counts too much!"

They're about to descend in this way? In the dark, he had a premonition that if he could shatter and comprehend the ancient inscriptions on the stone tablet, then not only could he master the Traveler tribe's secret [Portal Ancient Inscriptions], but he could also trace the whereabouts of Extinguishing Candle. Then everything would have room for "mediation"!

Gu Shen, "Are we considered to be out of the cold?"

She still had the degree of Gu's wisdom. Turing had a headache and couldn't help but persuade him, "With my understanding of that guy, people who are associated with him won't have a good ending. Are you sure you want to land here?"

It looked at the "meteorites" constantly streaking across the Initial outside the virtual sky.

He and the former Pluto were once close friends... But after the latter was driven crazy by [Truth], the relationship between the two gradually split. Therefore, Turing was not comfortable with the existence of this land. The dark clouds shrouded in this barrier were too "obvious". From dozens of miles away, one could feel the aura of Pluto. Typically, whoever came would be unlucky. They all made crisp sounds like stepping on snow. In principle, encountering such a major danger and opening a "crack" on the simulated ecological sky was a violation of regulations. Then, Gu Shen paused and shrugged: "I don't know. This kind of sealed object, as long as there is a little bit of a clue, will attract countless people to pursue it. In the past seventy years alone, the Northern Continent Investigation Corps has carried out countless expeditions for this matter." Yue could guarantee his safety, at least A Fu would not do that. Gu Shen reminded with a smile: "You should know that the so-called power of ancient inscriptions is also included." He said, "Next, you will be ready to fight. Are you going to start?" At this moment, it roared in anger, "Negotiation?"

Knowing that another outstanding transcendent had appeared, in front of Qing Ling's decision, high-level Travelers embraced each other in long sleep, their bodies dissolving into small cocoons. "Isn't this… extinction?" A Fu also came to the snowfield's main system screen, and several alarms had already popped up one after another. "..." Turing was speechless. The little fellow was also quietly looking at Hong Yue. It was hard to imagine that teenagers needed to use such an environment to become "migrants" and find a home. "Don't worry, I have a way."

In the eyes of the world, Extinguishing Candle last "appeared" nearly a hundred years ago.

Except for the snowfield's summit, Gu Shen said sternly, "There will be an accident. We are already surrounded."

With such a super power, [Old World] was so big, how difficult it was to find Extinguishing Candle. "Pluto!"

The most calm person was Ling. She used a precise projection method to condense mountains and rivers, floating beside Gu Shen. "This is what he owes you!!!"

"Although these are already 'dead', in the depths you can't see, there are dozens or hundreds of times more 'alive' guys."

This was insisting on initially descending into the Calamity Barrier.
