Chapter 1593: The First Heroic Spirit

Lord Bloodsea was lying unconscious on the bed.

[He seems to be in a state of exhausted slumber] Dead Fatty raised a signboard to comment

"Do you have any confidence when it comes to healing?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

Dead Fatty proudly raised another signboard: [Of course, I can absorb any sort of power, especially healing powers, and especially if it comes from beautiful girls--------]

Gu Qing Shan completely ignored him and helped Lord Bloodsea sit up, pouring a can of Ye Fei Li's healing drink into his mouth.

Even Shroud had to rely on this drink's effects to heal his serious injuries in the past.

Sure enough, Lord Bloodsea's eyelids twitched a bit before regaining his consciousness.

Seeing it working, Gu Qing Shan poured him another can.

Lord Bloodsea opened his mouth and struggled a bit to speak:

"Hurry... I also need... Pixie Magic Spring..."

Pixie Magic Spring was a kind of healing treasure that not even the pixies were willing to use on themselves.

Dead Fatty shrugged and raised his signboard: [That's a rare thing, we won't be able to find some in a short period of time]

Gu Qing Shan moved the Bramble Bird ring and produced a bottle of azure-colored spring water before pouring it into Lord Bloodsea's mouth as well.

"Not... enough..."

Lord Bloodsea was still talking in a discontinuous voice.

Gu Qing Shan shivered a bit and realized something.

He has clearly recovered his life force, so why does he want such a large quantity of Magic Springwater?

He tossed Lord Bloodsea into the bathtub and moved the Bramble Bird ring again.

Over a hundred bottles of Magic Springwater appeared in the air.

Following Gu Qing Shan's will, all the bottles were opened and began pouring their contents out.

The bathtub was practically filled to the brim instantly, causing Lord Bloodsea to struggle inside it.

Dead Fatty raised a signboard that only had six dots on it before he changed it to another one when he realized something wasn't right:

[Brother Gu, he's drowning]

Gu Qing Shan pulled Lord Bloodsea out from the bathtub and asked: "What else do you need?"

Lord Bloodsea was coughing incessantly without answering him and simply opened his left palm.

A burning blood-colored book fell down from his hand.

Bam!

Some Cards flew out from the Card deck and began burning nonstop.

Within the flames, all of these Cards were reduced to ash.

"NO!"

Lord Bloodsea exclaimed desperately.

He tumbled out from the bathtub and onto the ground, hurriedly placing his hand on the burning blood-colored book and shouted:

"Ceaselessly surging Blood Sea, even at the ultimate destruction, you must help me summon the original Heroic Spirit"

"Come, call upon her! Let her solemnity descend upon this reality once again!"

Za za za za za-------

As the blood-colored book was burnt to a crisp, 13 blood-colored Cards emerged from it and were caught in Lord Bloodsea's hand.

He was trembling nonstop as he imbued his power into them like he was mad, rapidly putting the 13 Cards together.

"Descend!"

Lord Bloodsea shouted.

The 13 Cards all turned over at the same time to manifest into the portrait of a war plunged in smoke.

A peerlessly beautiful woman stood in the middle of the portrait, wielding a sword and a blade in each of her hands with a lonely expression.

Even while she had her eyes closed, she was still exuding peerless charm that made it difficult to look away.

She seemed to have recognized Lord Bloodsea's summoning and spoke:

『 Little lordie? The Blood Sea is about to be completely destroyed by the Apocalypse, why are you looking for me? 』

Lord Bloodsea knelt on the ground and breathed heavily: "Esteemed lady, please answer my summon and come to my place to temporarily avoid the Apocalypse"

The woman still kept her eyes closed and laughed sorrowfully: 『 Everyone has died in battle; how could I survive pathetically by myself? 』

Lord Bloodsea raised both his arms as well as his voice: "No! Esteemed lady! As long as you don't die, they wouldn't be able to steal the entire Twin Rivers of Life and Death! As long as you're still alive, there will still be hope!"

The woman bit her lip, apparently, a bit tempted, but still shook her head: 『 There's not enough time. The Card deck manifested from the Heroic Spirits of the Blood Sea had been destroyed unless you can immediately find a card Deck that is of similar or higher level, I would have no choice but to die facing the enemy alone 』

Lord Bloodsea was stunned and collapsed on his knee.

------the Blood Sea Card deck was the most powerful deck he had, so there was no other deck that could rival it.

The woman appeared a bit startled before her presence started changing into killing intent and muttered: 『 They've arrived... I will avenge the other Heroic Spirits until I am destroyed 』

She turned around and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, a voice called out: "Esteemed lady, I have a Card deck here, can you please take a look and see if you're willing to deign yourself"

Gu Qing Shan spoke.

Gu Qing Shan was showing her a jet black leatherback book.

At this point, he finally understood why Su Xue Er wanted him to save Lord Bloodsea.

Saving Lord Bloodsea also meant saving this lady, and saving this lady was equivalent to saving the entire Blood Sea------- the Apocalypse would then not be able to gain complete control over the Twin Rivers of Life and Death!

Saving her would be the same as saving the Twin Rivers of Life and Death itself!

The woman turned around and looked at Gu Qing Shan.

While she still had her eyes closed, Gu Qing Shan could clearly see the surprise in between her eyebrows.

But very quickly, an atmosphere of resolve started exuding from her body.

The woman spoke with a hateful voice: 『 The enemy is about to arrive; I must avenge the fallen--- 』

Gu Qing Shan cut her off and raised his voice as well: "Esteemed lady! This is the Condemnation deck, the deck of Fate's sovereign that would surpass all obstacles, please come here temporarily and reside within this deck"

He quickly continued: "Esteemed lady, I've also once shouldered the lives of countless comrades, but I chose to survive-------- only by surviving would I be able to come up with a solution to triumph against the enemies that once stood in our way, to triumph against both the Apocalypse and Fate. Only then would I be able to sooth my comrades who had laid down their lives, to let them know that this world will eventually become the way they had wished!"

The lady fell silent.

A metallic gate not too far away behind her began to collapse.

The glowing cloaked skeleton had already appeared outside the gates.

Gu Qing Shan muttered: "Esteemed lady! Please do not allow the Apocalypse to win------- the summoning is about to end, please come to us"

The woman suddenly asked: 『 What is your name? 』

"Gu Qing Shan"

『 Gu... Qing Shan? 』

"Yes"

The woman began to recite an obscured incantation.

Instantly, the black leather of the Condemnation Codex began to give off a crimson glow.

Lines of glowing text instantly appeared in the void of space in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes:

[Attention, this Heroic Spirit was the First Heroic Spirit within the Blood Sea, as well as the master of the Heroic Spirit Hall, she holds the authority to begin the entire Blood Sea anew]

[The Lord of Radiance reigns over the Realm of Life, the Death God governs the River of Death, and the First Heroic Spirit exists together with the Blood Sea]

[These three entities are the rulers of everything within the Twin Rivers of Life and Death]

[The First Heroic Spirit of the Blood Sea is requesting to join the Condemnation deck, are you willing to accept her?]

"Agree!"

Gu Qing Shan shouted out loud.

He saw that the glowing cloaked skeleton had realized what was happening here and was rushing towards the last remaining Heroic Spirit.

The Condemnation Codex abruptly gave off a blinding flash of light that illuminated the entire portrait before vanishing.

In that instant, the scene created by the 13 Cards had all disappeared.
