Gate of God

Panda Novel

“”Guangling San?”” Fang Zhengzhi looked at Yun Qingwu’s desolated eyes and the scene when they first met on the boat flashed across his mind.

Yun Qingwu was playing the “Guangling San” then.

An ancient piece that was almost discontinued…

Could he still remember it?

One could not tell the real situation as one was caught in it.

Fang Zhengzhi did not know what was going through Yun Qingwu’s mind but he was slightly hesitant after listening to Yun Qingwu.

Perhaps his state of mind was not mature enough. Perhaps he should be more firm and not be affected by Yun Qingwu’s expressions.

However…

How many men in this world could do that? To be unmoved at all by a dazzling lady’s desolated expression?

Fang Zhengzhi hated Yun Qingwu.

However, he felt sad and unbearable to see Yun Qingwu die.

Should he hand over the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven to her so she did not have to take the risk?

After all, both of them ought to be fighting together.

‘She won’t lie to me, right?’

No!

‘What if she did?!’

Fang Zhengzhi shook his head violently. He wanted to trust Yun Qingwu but once he remembered Yun Qingwu’s identity, he could not help but to control his emotions.

After all, Yun Qingwu was the daughter of the Demon Lord and Monster Emperor. Even if she did not have the intention to trick Fang Zhengzhi, how would one be sure that she would disregard the Monster Race and Demon Race in her final decision?

It was too risky.

Once Yun Qingwu turned her back on him, the consequences would be grave.

Yun Qingwu…

If Yun Qingwu was not mixed blood of demon and monster, Fang Zhengzhi would have believed her. However, Yun Qingwu’s identity caused her actions to be unpredictable.

After all, there are some things that Yun Qingwu were forced to do.

For example, there was nothing wrong with Yun Qingwu requesting to be killed after being caught by Fang Zhengzhi.

However, once Yun Qingwu had a chance, would she still request to be killed?

Even if Yun Qingwu was determined to die, how would she possibly leave the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race alone and let Nangong Mu take over the leadership by using “Chou Qi’s” name?

Yes, he should not give Yun Qingwu a chance.

“Alright, after you combined the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven, I will let you out and I will leave with you.” Fang Zhengzhi made up his mind.

He did not want to do this but he had no choice as Yun Qingwu was, after all, too dangerous.

“Hmm.” Yun Qingwu nodded her head gently.

Without blaming him or feeling saddened, she acted as if she already knew that Fang Zhengzhi would make such a decision. She was as calm as a peaceful lake.

Without hesitation, Fang Zhengzhi decided to carry out the plan as he was running out of time.

Immediately, Yun Qingwu was kept into the black-golden box.

In the black-golden box were 28 Maps of Access to Heaven.

Such a turn of the event…

Naturally attracted the attention of the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race.

“Where’s Young Lord?!”

“What did Fang Zhengzhi do to Young Lord?”

“Did he teleport her to somewhere else? That’s impossible. If he could do that, why didn’t he escape?!”

The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race could not understand.

However, the sudden disappearance of Yun Qingwu shocked them greatly as they had always hoped to get Yun Qingwu back from Fang Zhengzhi’s hands.

“Fang Zhengzhi, return our Young Lord to us!” The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race could no longer hold in and attacked Fang Zhengzhi together.

Countless of arrows and spears shot at Fang Zhengzhi and some of them were shining with radiance.

This time, they clearly did not ask for Nangong Mu’s permission as they clearly saw Yun Qingwu as their leader.

Fang Zhengzhi did not bother answering the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race.

However, the attack by the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race gave him some trouble. Although the arrows and spears could not injure him, it dazzled him slightly.

Moreover, because of his restricted movement due to the tree branches of the God of Tree, some of the arrows and spears landed in his body.

It was impossible for him to dodge.

Left with no choice, Fang Zhengzhi could only set up a light shield and forcefully block the attacks. However, because of that, he used up his strength more rapidly.

Thankfully, Fang Zhengzhi had sufficient Origin Energy in his Small Dimension.

He could still hold on for a little while.

However, Yun Qingwu’s condition was obviously not very good.

As Fang Zhengzhi blocked the attacks by Nangong Mu and the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race, Yun Qingwu’s expression turned paler.

Thirty-six Dippers was an extremely rigorous skill to master, it was extremely difficult for one to deduce it calmly without breathing.

It was as though one had to solve an extremely complicated Mathematics question in a very noisy environment. Even if one could work it out, he would take much longer than usual.

Yun Qingwu was facing a much more difficult situation.

After all, breathing is one’s instinct. If one was deprived of air for a long period of time, one might even go into a coma because of the lack of supply of oxygen to the brain.

It was no longer a question regarding whether Yun Qingwu was calm enough but rather a question on whether her body could take it.

“Can you make it? If not, what should we do?” Fang Zhengzhi could sense the situation in the black-golden box. Apart from turning pale, Yun Qingwu’s body was trembling non-stop.

28 Maps of Access to Heaven floated in front of Yun Qingwu. She calmly stared at the maps and made gestures continuously with both of her hands.

Time flew by quickly.

How long could one last without air?

It was not a difficult question.

Moreover, Yun Qingwu’s cultivation and Enlightenment State was not high. She was merely at the Star Conglomerate State and it was impossible for her to press on with her cultivation state.

Boom!

Boom!

Bolts of blood-red lightning struck from the sky.

Fang Zhengzhi continuously dodged the bolts of lightning while blocking the attacks of the arrows and spears from all directions with his light shield.

Meanwhile, the Blazing Qilin Spear in his hand rapidly slashed at the tree branches of the Tree of God. Flames lit up the sky with different colored radiance.

“Fang Zhengzhi, you can’t last for long. Hand over what I want.” Nangong Mu’s voice could be heard but he did not stop attacking Fang Zhengzhi with the tree branches.

Instead of stopping, he attacked Fang Zhengzhi with even more branches.

The attack was endless.

The branches kept colliding with the Blazing Qilin Spear and this caused Fang Zhengzhi to perspire non-stop.

“Are you still not done?” As time passed, Fang Zhengzhi began to become anxious.

However, Yun Qingwu still continued her hand gestures and did not have any intention to combine the maps.

No!

Yun Qingwu looked like she was unable to last through!

Fang Zhengzhi could evidently sense the reduction in speed of Yun Qingwu’s hand gestures. That meant that the deduction became more difficult towards the back.

Should he release her from the black-golden box?

If this continued…

Perhaps Yun Qingwu would really die.

At that moment, Yun Qingwu finally started to move. With one hand still making gestures, her other hand started to make some markings on the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven.

Multitasking?!

Yun Qingwu…

Had such a powerful state of mind!

Could she do it?

Fang Zhengzhi forcefully suppressed his urge to release Yun Qingwu as he still could not completely believe her.

“She’s a mixed blood of the monster and demon race… I can’t give her the Maps of Access to Heaven, once she has the chance, she would definitely flee with the Maps of Access to Heaven. I can’t give her this chance… I definitely can’t be merciful!” Fang Zhengzhi kept reminding himself.

That was because he had once trusted Yun Qingwu.

However…

Yun Qingwu tricked him!

As the saying went, once bitten twice shy, Fang Zhengzhi definitely had to be wary of Yun Qingwu.

Time continued to pass.

Yun Qingwu’s body trembled more vigorously. The hand which she was making gestures with trembled and her other hand stopped touching the Maps of Access to Heaven.

However, she was still biting her lips and lasting on.

She did not send any signal for help. Even though she was already turning purple, she still continued her deduction with full attention.

“Drip, drip…”

Her sweat dripped down her face like rain and dripped on the floor of the black-golden box. Her white dress was also drenched in sweat.

The white dress stuck to Yun Qingwu’s body and made her slim figure more obvious.

However, Fang Zhengzhi could not admire her figure.

He was shameless.

However, this was not the time for him to be shameless as he could feel the hardship Yun Qingwu was facing now even though she was his enemy.

“Yun Qingwu, why must you be Yun Qingwu? Why must you be mixed blood of monster and demon race? If you are not… perhaps we can really become friends…” Fang Zhengzhi clenched his fists and moved the Blazing Qilin Spear to vent his emotions through this torture.

It was a hilarious torture.

Yun Qingwu had definitely tricked him before and he did not have to worry for Yun Qingwu. In fact, he once felt the urge to kill Yun Qingwu.

However, at that moment, Fang Zhengzhi really felt that he was tortured.

It was a strange feeling of torture.

Perhaps it was because Yun Qingwu had landed in such a state because of him, or perhaps it was because Yun Qingwu’s success or failure determined his life.

Yes…

What should he do if Yun Qingwu really does in the black-golden box?!

Without Yun Qingwu, how could he combine the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven, how could he even survive it?

Suddenly, this question struck Fang Zhengzhi.

That was right, in such a situation, he was indeed Yun Qingwu’s ally. He would survive if Yun Qingwu succeeded and he would die if Yun Qingwu failed.

Fang Zhengzhi had never thought that his life would be tied with Yun Qingwu’s. Moreover, his life depended on Yun Qingwu.

What a joke.

They were actually rivals.

Moreover, he had wanted to kill Yun Qingwu some time ago.

“No, I am a man, how can I depend on a woman to save my life?! Moreover, the woman who is saving me is the woman whom I will definitely kill!” Fang Zhengzhi’s heart shuddered.

He felt that he had made the wrong decision. He should not have kept Yun Qingwu in the black-golden box. He should be the one doing the deduction if it was necessary.

Although he did not know the Thirty-six Dippers very well, he should have still given it a shot.

With his understanding of the “Law of Dao”, perhaps he could find another way. He shoved this task to a woman without even trying.

Just as Fang Zhengzhi was thinking about that, Yun Qingwu, who was initially standing in the black-golden box, suddenly fell to her knees.

Was she dying?!

Fang Zhengzhi was shocked, he instinctively made the preparation to release Yun Qingwu from the black-golden box as he could not let her die. At least, he could not let her die like that.

If Yun Qingwu had to die, she should die under his sword.

Or else, it would not do justice to him.

Fang Zhengzhi was about to release Yun Qingwu when she suddenly stood up again.

She was trembling non-stop.

Evidently, she was struggling very hard and her lips turned slightly black. Her perspiration dripped on the ground like rain and formed a puddle.

Moreover…

Fang Zhengzhi saw how Yun Qingwu’s hair turned from black to gray and to white like snow.

Her hair turned white in such a short period of time?!

This was a strange scene. Moreover, Yun Qingwu had only entered the black-golden box for less than 15 minutes.

Within such a short period of time…

Yun Qingwu’s hair had turned completely white.

“Yun Qingwu, do you… really have to work till… such an extent?!” Fang Zhengzhi felt his heart ache. Then, he saw how Yun Qingwu began to touch the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven with both hands as though she was about to piece them together.

Wait!

He just had to wait for a little while more!

Yun Qingwu was almost going to succeed!

He just had to be merciless for a while longer and Yun Qingwu would be able to piece together the 28 Maps of Access to Heaven in the black-golden box. Then, he would be able to release her.

No!

Yun Qingwu was dying.

She was really about to die. She was already dehydrated. She would definitely die if he waited for a while longer.

“Ah!!! F*ck those tricks and f*ck being merciless, I am a man!” Fang Zhengzhi roared before he pressed his hands on the black-golden box. “Come out!”
