"You're not bad!"
Seeing Gu Han fall to the ground, Gilgamesh finally stood out from the void. Looking at the weak enemy in front of him, Gilgamesh nodded approvingly, "To be able to force me to retreat, this can already be the greatest and last pride of your life. I will give you a hero's death!"
Gilgamesh materialized the golden bow and Obedient Arrow again and aimed at Guhan's head.
"Should I use this now?"
Gu Han could not help but pinch the jade ring on his finger. Gu Han only needed to pinch the jade ring lightly, and he would be able to return to the trial formation of Changyang Mountain with the help of the power left behind by Yi Qing.
This was Guhan's last resort. Although Guhan was confident he could save his life with the help of the jasper ring, Gilgamesh had completely lost his restraint.
However, Gilgamesh had completely lost his restraints. Once he left the spatial rift, the entire Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array would probably be destroyed.
"Should I hold on a little longer?"
Guhan thought to himself as he touched the jasper ring. Guhan still had more than 20,000 quarks left. He could withstand around seven Obedient Arrows, which meant he could buy himself another 40 seconds. However, Guhan would need to use all his remaining sword essence to buy himself another 40 seconds. From then on, Guhan would have to return to the state of an ancient sword wielder and start from scratch again.
However, he could only buy himself another 40 seconds. If Liunian Ling could make it there in the next 40 seconds, it would be worth it even if Guhan used up all his sword essence. If Liunian Ling could not make it in time, Guhan would only be wasting his time.
As a matter of fact, according to Guhan's calculations, Liunian Ling would need at least 24 minutes to get there. Thirty seconds versus twenty-four minutes was an obvious answer. Guhan's best choice was to activate the jasper ring and escape to Changyang Mountain's Trial Formation while he still had more than 20,000 quarks left to save his life.
However, when Guhan was about to escape, the severed head of the Thousand Dou Isuzu Bell appeared in front of Guhan again.
If Guhan had not chosen to give up on the Thousand Dou Isuzu Bell because of absolute benefits, perhaps Guhan would still be suppressed by the seal. In that case, Gilgamesh would definitely be able to delay Liunian Ling's arrival.
Now, Guhan seemed to be faced with the same choice. Considering absolute benefits, Guhan should escape immediately. However, if Guhan escaped, the entire Zhou Tian Star Battle Formation would be doomed to shatter. If Guhan held on for another 40 seconds, would a miracle happen?
Guhan was still hesitating, but Gilgamesh did not. The next arrow, the Obedient Arrow, accurately hit Guhan, who had completely lost his strength. Guhan's personal shield kept rippling, and another 3,000 quarks of sword essence disappeared. Guhan's sword essence limit was now only slightly more than 19000 points.
"Oh!
Have you completely given up resisting?
I like this kind of good boy! "
Gilgamesh smiled slightly, but his hands did not stop moving. The invisible Obedient Arrow began to condense again. Only five seconds later, the second Obedient Arrow once again took a picture of Guhan's body.
16000 quarks!
13000 quarks!
The sword essence limit in Guhan's body continued to drop, and soon, there were only more than 13000 quarks of sword essence left. It had reached an extremely dangerous point. Soon, the sword essence limit in Guhan's body would fall below 10000 quarks. Guhan might not even be able to use his famed sword class Swordmistress.
"I'd better go back!
It's not shameful to escape now! "
Guhan squeezed the jasper ring in his hand. In just a second, he had made up his mind countless times to trigger the power in the jasper ring, but in the end, he was stopped by an invisible force. It was as if it was telling Guhan that perseverance was victory.
10000 quarks!
Guhan's body once again suffered the attack of the Obedient Arrow. With just one more arrow, Guhan would immediately fall to the sword essence level of a treasured sword class sword-wielder. That would undoubtedly be an earth-shattering result.
"Damn it, let's go!
Where did my rationality go? "
Guhan bit his tongue hard and smiled. Blood with a slightly fishy smell immediately filled Guhan's mouth, and it also made Guhan's long-lost rationality return to his mind.
This time, Guhan had made up his mind. He could not let the upper limit of his sword essence continue to fall like this. He had to retreat. He had already done his best for Shanhai Pass.
However, just as Guhan was about to leave, the tightly-shut door was suddenly kicked open by someone.
Gilgamesh, who was about to use the Obedient Arrow, and Guhan, who was about to escape, stopped in their tracks. Then, they saw the awe-inspiring Ling Liunian Ling barge in with Ashima, who had a look of disdain on her face.
"You're not dead yet!"
Seeing Guhan lying on the ground, Liunian Ling's tense face finally revealed a happy smile. Then, this smile was quickly hidden by Liunian Ling. She turned to look at Gilgamesh with a calm and murderous expression.
"Gilgamesh!
My Liunian Clan has finally found you. Today is the day you die! "
Just like how she had appeared, Liunian Ling spoke in the same awe-inspiring manner as Ling. It was as if Gilgamesh was just a small monster that could be easily killed by Liunian Ling.
"Who are you?
Such arrogance at such a young age! "
Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes. He had no idea where the little girl in front of him got the confidence to speak to him like this.
"Let me introduce myself!
I am Liunian Ling of the Liunian Clan. Today, I represent the Liunian Clan and our ancestor, Lord Kenzu, to kill you, you dog! "Liunian Ling said proudly.
… …
The feud between the Liunian Clan and Gilgamesh had never stopped.
Ever since she was very young, Liunian Ling had loved listening to the stories of her ancestor. Naturally, Liunian Ling was very familiar with the mysterious Yuan Kou who had almost killed her ancestor's good friends.
Other humans might not know who this Yuan Kou was, but as the direct descendant of the Liunian Clan, how could Liunian Ling not know who this damned Yuan Kou was?
Moreover, the Liunian Clan had always had a rule that if their descendants had the chance to find Gilgamesh, they must do their best to kill this Yuan Kou and make up for the regret that Kenzu could not come down all those years ago.
Therefore, when Liunian Ling heard the news of Gilgamesh's appearance, she used some extremely precious single-use items to teleport from the Sun Star Garrison to the coordinates that Ashima had given her. Then, she followed Ashima into the Radiant Amusement Park without hesitation and used another single-use item to teleport outside the sealed grounds.
Of course, Liunian Ling would only admit that she had used so many precious items to kill Gilgamesh. She would never admit that this had anything to do with Guhan … Yes, definitely not.
"You're the descendant of Fleeting Time Calendar!" Gilgamesh was clearly shocked. "It's been a few hundred years?
Haven't the descendants of that fellow from Fleeting Time Calendar died out yet? "
"Hmph!
Before we kill you to avenge our ancestors, the Liunian Clan will not die out! "Liunian Ling said proudly.
"You little brat, what gives you the confidence to say that you're so sure that you can take me down!" Gilgamesh could not help but feel a little guilty when he saw Liunian Ling's expression as she spoke.
Although he was mighty in front of Guhan and Ling, in front of Liunian Ling, it was as if he had eaten a black chicken and white phoenix pill, becoming timid … This was mainly because he had suffered too many losses at the hands of Kenzu back then. Now that he saw Kenzu's descendant, he felt that Kenzu would suddenly jump out and beat him up.
"Ling!
Don't waste time with him. Use the Three Meter Goddess!
There are 300,000 humans outside, it's enough for you to kill this Gilgamesh ten times over! "Guhan whispered to Liunian Ling.
Guhan naturally knew where Liunian Ling's confidence came from. It was the Human Path Sword Goddess's Three Meter Goddess that even Guhan was jealous of.
As a Human Path Sword Goddess, as long as there were enough humans, the Human Path Sword Goddess would possess nearly endless power … Although this might consume a lot of the humans' lifespan, which was too much for the already bitter humans in the Radiant City, there was no other way. After all, they could not just watch as Gilgamesh killed him and Liunian Ling!
"Human Path Sword Goddess?
What the hell is that? "
After all, Gilgamesh had been away from the mainstream world for too long. The Human Path Sword Goddess only appeared after he was sealed, so Gilgamesh did not know the terror of the Human Path Sword Goddess … Otherwise, if a Flood Level Yuan Kou heard that the Human Path Sword Goddess was in Liunian Ling's hands and that there were 300,000 human lifespan that could be squandered by the Human Path Sword Goddess, this Flood Level Yuan Kou would definitely choose to retreat immediately. Only a fool would fight to the death with a Human Path Sword Goddess.
Unfortunately, Gilgamesh did not know this, so he only showed a puzzled expression and did not show any fear towards the Three Meter Goddess.
"No!
This sinner's life is not worth 300,000 human lifespan! "
Unexpectedly, Liunian Ling directly refused Guhan's suggestion to use the Human Path Sword Goddess, and instead took out a card from her dimensional pocket.
That's right, this was an exquisitely crafted card similar to those in card games.
However, the character on the card was not a two-dimensional portrait, but a real photo. It was a character that Gu Han looked familiar to him.
"Fleeting Year Calendar!"
He did not expect Gilgamesh to be the first to recognize the character on this card, but this was not surprising. After all, the two had been entangled for a lifetime, so of course Gilgamesh could recognize his old enemy at a glance.
"Gilgamesh, let the unfinished battle from 900 years ago end today!
The ancestor has been waiting for you for many years! "
Liunian Ling smiled slightly, and the card in her hand instantly incinerated. Then, an illusory shadow floated out of the card, and finally gathered into a handsome figure in white robes.
"Lord Kenzu!"
Seeing this figure, Guhan could not help but lower his head. This was indeed Kenzu's Fleeting Year Calendar … He did not expect Kenzu to bear such a grudge against Gilgamesh that he deliberately left his sword mark and soul seal to destroy Gilgamesh.
