Worlds’ Apocalypse Online Chapter 1027

Chapter 1029 - The Abyss’ Upcoming Purpose

“Did she really say that?”

“She did”

Boss spoke in contemplation: “If that’s the truth, then things are quite interesting indeed…”

“How so?”

“It’s hard to say for now, but if you have drawn the attention of the Abyss, I suggest that we continue heading further into the ruin”

“Is there a reason?”

“This ruin itself was a portion that the Seven Deities detached from the Abyss, which means we only need to call upon the will of the Abyss for it to recall this portion of itself”

Boss continued to explain: “As the Apocalypse of the parallel world is consuming the Abyss; if we are able to help the Abyss regain portions of itself at this crucial point in time, we’d be greatly aiding it. The consciousness of the Abyss will surely descend once more and observe you”

“Observe me once again…” Gu Qing Shan chuckled: “Meeting once to get acquainted, twice to grow closer? Are you saying that the Abyss would assimilate it into itself just because I helped it out?”

Boss replied: “Not necessarily, but you should trust me, this is definitely a venture with endless benefits”

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Benefits? You mean like the Star Firefly you received?”

“Exactly” Boss’ gaze scanned through everyone here and spoke very seriously: “For all of us here, this will be beneficial”

Gu Qing Shan fell silent.

Everyone fell into contemplation.

Since they had already run into a Void Deity and an Occultism spirit, there was no telling what other kind of beings they’d run into next.

To continue heading deeper or not, this was a tough question as it was related to everyone’s survival.

Ye Fei Li suddenly spoke up: “Currently, we’re all too weak. If we can somehow obtain great power from doing this as feedback, then I think it’s worth our risk”

Zhang Ying Hao thought for a bit and also commented: “We can take a look, but we need to guarantee our safety before anything else”

Saying so, everyone turned to Laura.

——not even the Void Deity managed to discover Laura.

Her abilities when it came to concealment had been confirmed in a trustworthy manner.

Laura triumphantly said: “You guys handle the fighting; this empress shall handle the sneaking around”

Gu Qing Shan followed up: “Then we’re going to keep going. Ying Hao, have your cat lead us; I’ll use the ring to open the path; Fei Li can hear the sound of all things, so you’re responsible for staying on guard of our surroundings; Laura will stay in the middle of everyone, ready to spring her umbrella at any time; Boss and I will be constantly ready for battle”

“””Got it”””

Everyone replied in unison.

The black cat laid on top of the umbrella, gazing around the void of space, then pointed his paw in a certain direction.

Meow!

“That way” Zhang Ying Hao said.

The group started to fly, slightly heading upwards in the space vortex.

Several dozen minutes later.

Meow meow meow!

The black cat softly cried out.

Zhang Ying Hao translated: “He said that we’re at the right place, but he doesn’t know where to enter”

“Wait a minute” Gu Qing Shan stepped forward and slowly raised his hand towards the void.

The golden ring began to exude a faint glow.

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes to receive the information transmitted by the ring.

Boss also stepped forward, drawing the trident from his back, and wielded it in his hand while cautiously observing their surroundings.

A few moments later.

Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes: “I know the way. We need a unique incantation”

He then began to chant an incantation towards the void of space.

The void parted outwards.

A tattered, dusty, and moldy path made of rocks appeared in front of everyone.

“Is this a portion of the Abyss?” Gu Qing Shan asked in a whisper.

“That’s right, they used the body of the Abyss to create this passage” Boss said emotionally: “Those Deities were quite the experts at both stealing and hiding things that belonged to others”

“Let’s go in”

Everyone entered the passage.

The void of space slowly closed up behind them.

No one else would be able to discover his insignificant hidden path within the vast and boundless space vortex.

Plip

Plip

Other than the faint sound of water, the passage was completely silent.

The long years filled this place with a clear musty stench, forcing everyone to hold their breaths.

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to search further into the passage.

There weren’t any mechanisms or items in their path.

Only a single casket of stone that was covered in green vines rested at the very end of the passage.

Gu Qing Shan stopped and touched the ring in his hand.

No reaction.

Seems like the ring will only transmit new information when we approach that casket.

“Let’s move on” Zhang Ying Hao said.

“Wait a minute”

Ye Fei Li suddenly stopped them.

“What’s the matter?” Boss asked.

“Hm… I hear the sound of crying, at the very end of the passage” Ye Fei Li told them.

“The end of the passage? There is indeed a casket there, but I can’t hear any sounds” Gu Qing Shan spoke up.

Everyone exchanged glances.

“Can you hear anything?”

“No, what about you?”

“I can’t either”

“Which means, only Ye Fei Li can hear it”

“If that’s the case…”

Everyone slowly understood.

It was clear…

What Ye Fei Li heard was the sound of a crying ghost.

This place has already been sealed for over a hundred million years.

What kind of entity would that crying ghost be?

Laura shrunk in fright, holding tightly onto her umbrella and clutched Gu Qing Shan’s sleeve tightly.

“Gu Qing Shan, I’m a bit scared…” she muttered.

“It will be fine. The worst thing that’ll happen is another battle, and you don’t need to participate” Gu Qing Shan consoled her.

Zhang Ying Hao thought for a bit, then drew a Card.

He tossed the Card out.

The Card turned into a cloud of white fog.

Then manifested as a grey old tiger in front of the group.

The old tiger opened its deep green eyes and looked around the dark passage.

「 Hm? Zhang Ying Hao, where are you? 」the tiger asked in a low voice.

Zhang Ying Hao’s voice came from the void of space: “I’m here”

The old tiger turned to the direction of his voice and asked:

「 What did you call me here for? 」

“There seems to be a wandering soul ahead, please help us take a look at what its ability is”

「 Very well, but since this place is giving me an extreme sense of unease, I’ll leave right away after I use my ability 」

“Hm, if you would please”

The old tiger nodded in satisfaction.

It turned around, staring far into the silent passage with its deep green eyes and silently shouted: 「 Ghosts! 」

Two corpses dressed in tattered robes manifested on either side of the tiger.

One of the corpses wielded a large blade.

The other corpse wielded a heavy metal mace.

「 Go to the end of the passage, kill what you see 」the old tiger ordered.

Receiving their orders, the two corpses slowly made their way towards the end of the passage.

The old tiger slightly nodded to Zhang Ying Hao, turned back into white fog, then vanished from the passage.

Not too long later.

The two corpses made their way to the end of the passage.

They stood in front of the casket, raised their weapons, and were about to attack——-

When the vines that wrapped around the casket abruptly moved.

A green afterimage appeared.

The two corpses vanished without a trace.

Their weapons fell to the ground and were grabbed by the vines. Like a piece of ice in the middle of a hot summer day, they quickly melted and disappeared.

Everything happened in just a few moments.

Everything returned to how it was before as if nothing had transpired, both the corpses and their weapons seemed to have completely disappeared.

“Quite troublesome” Boss commented as he watched what happened from his Book of Prophesized Destiny.

“Hm, quite troublesome indeed” Gu Qing Shan agreed.

They clearly saw what happened just now, the vines were able to consume the two corpses as well as their weapons in the blink of an eye.

It was quite unusual to run into fellows that could eat anything, but once you did, their preferred unit of food would usually be ‘worlds’.

Monsters like this were always frighteningly tough to fight against.

While the two of them were thinking, they noticed something else happening at the end of the passage.

Two skeletons manifested in front of the casket.

They turned around and started to make their way towards their group.

“Not only can it consume its enemy, but it can also reanimate and use them as servants” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“Indeed, this has gotten even more troublesome, because it’s impossible to tell what it had eaten before” Boss also scowled.

“I’m scared that it might have consumed the corpse of a Deity” Gu Qing Shan added.

The two of them fell silent.

The skeletons were slowly moving forward in the passage.

They were looking left and right, trying to observe everything in the passage.

Quite obviously, the monster released them in order to check the situation of the passage.

“What now? Quickly make a decision” Zhang Ying Hao said.

Gu Qing Shan paused for a second.

“Boss, how long do you need to return this place to the Abyss?” he asked.

“A bit more than a dozen seconds, what about it?” Boss asked in return.

“Begin now” Gu Qing Shan said.

Boss froze briefly, then suddenly realized.

That’s right.

The monster can’t see or detect them at all.

The fact that it sent two skeletons to check the situation proved this to be true.

And according to the covenant, our group can’t take any items from the ruin——-

Then…

Why do we need to fight it?

We can simply dedicate this entire passage to the Eternal Abyss.

As for the monster——-

It wouldn’t be able to do anything but would be forced to find a new hideout within the space vortex.

“But I need over a dozen seconds to finish, what if the monster unleashed an area of effect attack?” Boss asked.

Gu Qing Shan drew the Earth sword and replied: “Leave it to me”

I have a few million Soul Points right now.

No matter what kind of attack the other party unleashes, I should be able to hold it back for a few dozen seconds.

Boss then immediately knelt on one knee, pressed one hand against the ground, and shouted: “Consciousness, descend!”

Oom——-

The entire passage began to tremble intensely.

Noticing this, the two skeletons hurriedly sped up.

They were now flying in the passage.

Gu Qing Shan silently evaluated the situation.

They’ll probably need 7-8 seconds more to reach this place.

Let’s wait a bit.

He lowered his sword and silently waited.

7 seconds later.

The figures of the two skeletons could now be seen in the darkness of the passage.

Boss still had his hand pressed on the ground to call upon the consciousness of the Abyss.

“Don’t make any sudden movements, leave it to me”

Gu Qing Shan informed everyone else.

He silently watched the skeletons until they were about half a meter away from the group.

Gu Qing Shan raised his sword and lightly swung.

The two skeletons were erased by the Earth sword.

Immediately, the casket at the end of the passage sent out countless green vines that filled the entire passage, heading towards Gu Qing Shan’s group at a speed that far surpassed the skeletons.

Three seconds.

Gu Qing Shan silently counted.

Three more seconds until they reach this place.

He raised the Earth sword in front of himself and muttered: “Together now”

「 Got it 」the Earth sword replied.

Gu Qing Shan triggered his sword seal.

Secret Art, [Torrent].

Earth sword, [Earth’s Choice].

Intense Lightning-infused sword phantoms flickered and flowed like a tsunami against the end of the passage.

Boundlessly flowing sword phantoms.

Countless writhing vines.

They clashed against one another at the center of the passage.

Hoh——–

The vines were slowly being overwhelmed by the flickering sword phantoms.

The sword phantoms continued to flow towards the end of the passage and only completely faded away as they reached the casket.

Ye Fei Li abruptly covered his eyes.

“It’s screeching in anger. It’s going to attack with its full power” Ye Fei Li reminded them.

“Ignore it, it’s all over”

Saying so, Gu Qing Shan put the Earth sword away.

Boss also pulled his hand away from the ground and followed up: “That’s right, there’s no need to risk our lives in a fight, it’s done”

As soon as he said that, the entire passage vanished without a trace.

Everyone reappeared within the space vortex.

Laura kept her umbrella opened and flew with everyone in another direction, while the casket covered in vines simply fell downwards into the space vortex.

“From the looks of things, it was quite heavy” Zhang Ying Hao commented.

“I hope it’ll find a new home soon” Ye Fei Li also said.

At this point, Boss’ Book of Prophesized Destiny abruptly flew up by itself and quickly flipped through its pages.

“What are you doing?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“It’s not me. It’s the consciousness of the Abyss, I think it has something to tell us” Boss replied.

Everyone looked at the Book of Prophesized Destiny together.

Only to see Anna and Lin being displayed in the pages of the book.
