“You… are an Apocalypse? That joke isn’t funny!”
Looking at Su Xue Er, Gu Qing Shan felt the most anxiety he had ever felt in his life.
From the very beginning to the very end, I’ve always hoped for the reunion and life that would come after the Apocalypse was over.
—–but now, Su Xue Er has become an Apocalypse?
Su Xue Er’s tone became a bit softer and consoled him: [It’s ok, this is the only way I would be able to help you…]
She covered Gu Qing Shan’s mouth with her hand to prevent him from saying anything else and started speaking faster:
[Qing Shan, there isn’t much time, so listen to me seriously]
[The Soul Artifact of the Fire Saint Pillar had fulfilled the Heavenly King’s wish, but the most precious thing it had taken from him as payment was his power to fight the Apocalypse]
[The Heavenly King had always made sure to avoid a direct confrontation with the Apocalypses and would only order his subordinates to do so when there were no other choices]
[The Pendant of Fire had obscured the entire truth, so even I had to spend all of my power to travel several times across the River of Time in order to discover the truth under the identity of an Apocalypse——- but I was still unable to prevent the Heavenly King from fulfilling his wish] Su Xue Er explained.
She carefully observed Gu Qing Shan’s gaze and dejectedly said: [To travel through Space-Time, I had to destroy many worlds in order to obtain enough power]
Her eyes met.
Gu Qing Shan gently clutched her hand and said in a low voice: “You’re not a bloodthirsty person, it’s been hard on you”
Su Xue Er shook her head and firmly said:
[The Samsara Clash for Supremacy has already begun. If the Heavenly King obtained the final victory, he would also gain the ultimate power after the Samsara’s evolution—— all of his lost power would return, and even more!]
[Qing Shan, I’m an Apocalypse, with the complete power of the twin swords Heaven and Earth, I would be able to directly face off against the Heavenly King’s clone, you can take that chance to go through that Reality Gate and chase after the Samsara]
[You must stop the Heavenly King!]
Gu Qing Shan’s expression remained unchanged and asked: “Then what about you from now on?”
Su Xue Er avoided his gaze and lowered her head: [Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine]
Gu Qing Shan silently stared at Gu Qing Shan, then asked: “As an Apocalypse, if you help me escape, what would happen to you when those powerful Apocalypse Sequences arrive?”
Su Xue Er bit her lip without answering.
Gu Qing Shan continued: “And Shroud as well, he isn’t the real Secret Apocalypse, those High Sequence Apocalypses had been constantly going after him”
—-the entire Space Vortex is about to be destroyed.
Although the Samsara had escaped, there were still numerous incomplete worlds within the Space Vortex where countless living beings reside.
As well as everyone on the Temporal Oasis.
Anna, Zhang Ying Hao< Ye Fei Li, Barry, Kitty, Ye Ru XI.
What would happen to everyone?
Would they also have to lose their lives within this calamity?
Gu Qing Shan’s heart started beating heavily and said:
“…If I leave by myself, even if I defeat the Heavenly King and win the Samsara Clash for Supremacy, that would still be meaningless to me”
Su Xue Er hurriedly said: [The Samsara is the ultimate evolution weapon, once you obtain it——-]
Gu Qing Shan cut it her off and said: “If it means losing everyone, that power would mean nothing to me”
He turned his hand around and took out the Book of the Sea.
“Book of the Sea, I remember you said that there was hope for everyone to escape, please tell me how I would be able to do that”
The Book of the Sea answered him: [You no longer have any wealth left, so if you want to know this, I must take all the wealth you will obtain in the next 3000 years—— this is the rules of the Soul Artifact]
“Why so much?” Laura impatiently cut in.
The Book of the Sea answered: [There is no way around it, this matter is too crucial. It is literally the most important secret other than the ultimate secret that we Four Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts were hiding]
The Key of the Wind and Coin of the Earth also jumped out and gave off a clear chime.
“Why did all of you come out at once?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.
The Key of the Wind explained: [The Samsara Heavenly King doesn’t know that the Four Saint Pillars absolutely cannot be in two different Boundless Voids, otherwise, the power of the four Soul Artifacts would no longer be concealed and could be felt by the billions of Boundless Voids]
The Book of the Sea continued: [Because of that, we also need you. We will accompany you in chasing after the Pendant of Fire]
The Coin of the Earth gave off a loud begging chime.
The three Soul Artifacts began to circle around Gu Qing Shan and call out continuously.
Gu Qing Shan thought briefly and said: “I’m willing to pay my wealth of the next 3000 years, please tell me that secret”
The Book of the Sea immediately hovered in front of him and opened to reveal several lines of text written in human common language:
[The only things that can bring all the worlds and all living beings away from this Reality Gate are the intimations made by the Awaitings]
[They’ve fought the Apocalypses countless times, during the process of which they’ve intimated the structure of Apocalypse Sequences and learned of unique techniques that they used to create Low Sequence Apocalypses]
[These are the Orders that they had created—-]
[Worlds Apocalypse Online]
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
[Worlds Apocalypse Online] was originally an Apocalypse Sequence?
No wonder it was so far beyond common sense and was able to do so many things that ignore the Laws of the Void.
When Shroud was sent to save Little Wei, Shroud had actually been directly transported to her location across countless worlds.
In other words—–
“All living beings that are connected to [Worlds Apocalypse Online] could be transported to a certain location?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
In that case, everyone would certainly be able to flee!
[Indeed, but the Awaitings would not be able to achieve this feat] the Book of the Sea answered him.
“Why not? They’re clearly recovering their strength” Gu Qing Shan asked.
[The Awaitings are also considered to be living beings. Even if they’ve turned themselves into the spirits of these Orders, they are still unable to exert the true power of an Apocalypse Sequence and bring all the worlds with them]
[—-I’m currently an Apocalypse, would I be able to use ‘Worlds Apocalypse Online’ to take everyone with me?] Su Xue Er asked.
[You cannot either—– although you are an Apocalypse Sequence, this type of power requires an Advance Apocalypse with a High Sequence]
After answering this, the Book of the Sea immediately said: [Gu Qing Shan, I’ve told you before, whether or not the living beings of the Space Vortex would be able to flee will be up to you]
“Me?” Gu Qing Shan asked in disbelief.
He suddenly recalled something.
When he had just obtained the Book of the Sea, this Saint Pillar Soul Artifact had indeed said that, but he thought that it was referring to his identity as the Earth God.
Now, it seems there might have been another hidden reason.
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and asked: “Why me?”
The Book of the Sea answered: [You must understand clearly. The reason why I asked to collect all of your wealth in the next 3000 years lies in what I’m about to tell you right now]
All the text on the book vanished, having turned into new lines of text:
[The following content is only shown to you alone]
[——Gu Qing Shan, you are a pitiful existence]
[Your living essence was comprised of two completely different structures]
[Half of you is a living being, while the other half is an Apocalypse]
[Indeed, one of your parents must be an Apocalypse, while the other must be a living being of extreme power]
[You were an exiled unnatural product, unaccepted by living beings, nor accepted by the Apocalypse. Each side would consider you to be an ominous monster]
[You will be forever alone]
[—But you have a unique ability that allows you to use both the powers of a living being and an Apocalypse]
[I’m not sure about the specifics, but within the void, you are the only one capable of this]
All the text then swiftly vanished from the Book of the Sea.
It became blank again.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression had frozen.
He stood completely still like a soulless statue.
“Mother… Father…”
He muttered in a low voice.
Seeing the expression on his face, Su Xue Er suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of sorrow.
“Gu Qing Shan, what’s wrong?” Laura asked.
[Qing Shan] Su Xue Er softly called out and embraced him tightly.
Gu Qing Shan slowly turned to the two girls.
Some light gradually returned to his gaze as he silently called out: “War God UI”
[I’m here] the War God UI responded.
“You were something that my parents left me…” Gu Qing Shan said.
The War God UI remained silent for a bit before answering him: [The ultimate function will require a Quest order to activate]
Gu Qing Shan immediately said: “Issue a War God Quest, the objective is for me to obtain the power of an Apocalypse”
Perhaps it had been waiting for this statement for too long, but the War God UI immediately began to display numerous lines of glowing text:
[The War God UI has answered your request]
[Where your sword points is the War God UI’s goal]
[The UI is currently undergoing change]
[In T-minus-five, the UI will remove its disguise]
[5]
[4]
[3]
[2]
[1]
[Highest Sequence, Worlds Apocalypse Online—— activated!]
The entire UI completely vanished.
Right after that, a crimson UI appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan’s eyes.
Numerous crimson letters were rapidly scrolling through the screen to show Gu Qing Shan various descriptions and notifications.
After a few moments.
Gu Qing Shan pulled his gaze back and turned to Su Xue Er.
“Xue Er”
[Hm?]
“You’ve sacrificed too much for me already… leave the upcoming battle to me”
The twin swords Heaven and Earth slowly descended from the void of space, once again grasped in Gu Qing Shan’s hands.
His body suddenly began to exude a terrifying destructive presence.
