Worlds’ Apocalypse Online Chapter 383

Chapter 381 - Demon Lord

Chapter 381: Demon Lord

Inside the dark tunnel, Gu Qing Shan was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

He temporarily let go and didn’t bother thinking too much about the secret of the demons anymore.

Because there was a great dilemma waiting for him.

Deep inside the tunnel to Huang Quan, there existed a terrifying Demon Lord.

The Demon Lord is guarding the path.

No soul can get past it into Huang Quan.

After considering multiple choices, he decided that he had to at least try and risk it once.

If he can’t even get into Huang Quan, then the human world is as good as done for.

He searched around the cliff and finally found a piece of bone that’s sticking out of the rocky surface.

Putting his hand on the bone, Gu Qing Shan activated [Mystery of All Creatures Equal]

Glowing lines of text scrolled past his vision.

[Currently analyzing the Mystery of the Sharp-boned Demon body structure]

[Spend 1000 Soul Points to instantly comprehend this demon’s body structure, as well as temporarily turning into a demon that is the same as the Sharp-boned Demon in essence]

1000 Soul Points!

Gu Qing Shan clicked his tongue.

[Mystery of All Creatures Equal] costs so much!

At this time, a notification popped up on the War God UI.

[Seeing that there aren’t many Ascended realm late stage demons left in the tunnel, please make sure to use your Soul Points sparingly]

Gu Qing Shan understood.

He currently has no way to replenish his Soul Points.

Speaking of this, there is actually a borderline in both the demons and human cultivators.

That is Sainted realm.

Above Sainted realm, due to the fact that human cultivators can grasp countless Laws of the world to use, as well as being able to upgrade their own Thaumaturgy to an impressive level, it becomes easier for them to single-handedly defeat demons of the same rank.

But below Sainted realm, normal cultivators cannot possibly defeat demons of the same level.

A normal Ascended realm late stage cultivator isn’t even a good fight for the Darkblood Demon Serpent.

The Darkblood Demon Serpent resists regular 5-Elemental spells, capable of secreting venom that corrodes spirit energy as well as an extremely strong body that’s even faster than martial cultivators at Ascended realm late stage.

This makes the demon much stronger compared to regular Ascended realm late stage, infinitely close to Sainted realm demons.

Even two Ascended realm late stage cultivators couldn’t fight against it, they can only flee.

For that reason, the System treats the Darkblood Demon Serpent as a creature that’s stronger than normal Ascended realm cultivators.

And thus according to the War God UI’s rule system, the System rewards Gu Qing Shan with Soul Points for killing the Darkblood Demon Serpent.

The reason why Gu Qing Shan managed to kill it so easily was because he has his battle experience from two lives, together with the prowess of a sword saint, plus two Divine Armament swords and the Divine Skill [Ground Shrink].

Furthermore, he has the ‘Smiting’ characteristic which enhances his damage by 30%, the System that appraises monster details before he battles them and even detected the Darkblood Demon Serpent before it came out of hiding.

No one else in the world would have so many advantages.

———that’s why so terrifying demons like the Darkblood Demon Serpent were instantly killed by him in this tunnel.

After a lot of hesitation, Gu Qing Shan groaned: “I have no choice do I! This Soul Points is necessary expenditure!”

“Turn off the appraisal function, I already know most of these demons”

[Understood] the System answered.

For now, to pass through the tunnel and get into Huang Quan, disguising as a demon is the only method Gu Qing Shan has.

Gu Qing Shan asked: “System, how long will my disguise last?”

The System answered: [If you use spirit energy to disguise yourself, there is a time limit]

[But disguising using Soul Points is changing your body from its foundation, as long as you do not dispel it, the form will last indefinitely]

[Congratulations, by choosing the correct form of energy to practice this Mystery, you manage to reach this level]

That’s good to know.

Gu Qing Shan gritted his teeth and confirmed: “Do it, I’ll pay the Soul Points”

[The user has confirmed using Soul Points]

[Please begin to study the Sharp-boned Demon’s body structure, the System will release Soul Points at the appropriate time to allow your usage]

“Very well”

Gu Qing Shan just stood in place.

He stared at the bone in his hand, using [Mystery of All Creatures Equal] to sense and study it.

As time passes, he actually found himself already fully aware of the bone’s structure.

He even knew how to use the world’s origin power to construct this bone.

This type of understanding was usually only reserved for Gods.

“Soul Points” Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help himself saying so, “I need Soul Points to construct the Laws to reform my body”

As soon as he said so, his Soul Points decreased by 1000.

Very quickly, Gu Qing Shan felt itchy.

Itchy?

Why am I feeling itchy?

I’m only a soul right now, I shouldn’t have the ability to feel anything.

Gu Qing Shan looked down at himself.

A body made completely from bone, all four of his limbs were cold, sharp gleaming claws.

This was his body.

A big different from normal Sharp-boned Demons, his body was more slender and balanced.

Gu Qing Shan tried sensing himself to find a completely new type of power that isn’t spirit energy inside his body.

He tried to control that power and poured it into his claws.

The claw easily passed through the hard rocky surface, giving off a feeling of slicing through butter.

Two deep marks were carved into the walls.

“What an impressive secret technique this Mystery is! It actually let me disguise as a real Sharp-boned Demon!”

Gu Qing Shan muttered to himself.

“No, this isn’t ‘disguised as’, I’m an actual Sharp-boned Demon now”

Gu Qing Shan tried moving his body.

There was no resistance or discomfort.

It was as if he naturally knows how this demon body works since birth.

Gu Qing Shan made sure to stay in one place, training himself according to the memories of the Sharp-boned Demon’s fighting style.

After a while, he stopped to rest.

——he’s already grasped the method of battle as a Sharp-boned Demon.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t hesitate anymore and started to move towards the deeper end of the Huang Quan tunnel.

Miraculously, he was naturally moving the way the Sharp-boned Demon was supposed to move.

Using the sharp claws in hand to stick into the walls while his legs crawled down the tunnel bit by bit.

Is this alright?

Will I really not be found out?

Gu Qing Shan was still a bit anxious.

The most important thing now is to find a random demon to see how it’ll react as it sees him.

Unfortunately, he’s already killed all the demons in the vicinity, so there were no more demons for a very long distance.

He had no choice but to go even deeper.

He came to the place where he heard the man calling for help last time.

A monster finally appeared.

It was a green soft-bodied centipede.

This monster isn’t particularly strong, but have a very sensitive nose that can easily detect a human corpse from several miles away.

Its favorite food were corpses with thick globs of meat.

Probably noticing the man’s death from before, it was quickly crawling up the tunnel where his body was left.

Gu Qing Shan stopped, using his sharp limbs to suspend himself on the cliff.

He stared at the centipede without moving.

The centipede noticed his stare.

It glanced over at him.

Gu Qing Shan was now disguised as a Sharp-boned Demon with bones all over his body, as well as a fellow demon, so he naturally wasn’t part of his menu.

The centipede ignored him and kept crawling upwards.

After a just a bit, the centipede passed by where Gu Qing Shan was.

Nothing happened.

It didn’t attack Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan stayed there for a while more, still observing the centipede.

The centipede was still crawling upwards, heading up the dark tunnel.

Its direction was exactly where the man died before.

Gu Qing Shan tried to maintain his composure.

Slash———

He jumped up and slashed with his claws.

The claws easily passed through the centipede’s body like a hot knife through butter.

While unguarded, the centipede was diced to pieces by the Sharp-Boned Demon!

It couldn’t even let out a sound before losing its life.

Gu Qing Shan stood where the centipede’s body was, staring down at his claws.

I really did become a demon, and even managed to fool that demon’s senses.

The Soul Points spent was well worth it.

[Mystery of All Creatures Equal] really is incredible!

Gu Qing Shan was feeling more confident now.

He kept heading down the Huang Quan tunnel.

On the way, countless monsters of various shapes and sizes showed up.

Gu Qing Shan was weaving his way through the monsters.

None of them paid him any notice.

Despite Gu Qing Shan moving around the horde of demons, none of the stronger demons even bothered to look at him.

The only time something happened was when he passed by a large monster and left a deep cut on the thing’s body by accident.

The large monster chased him for a long while before finally giving up.

Gu Qing Shan kept heading to the deep end of the dark tunnel.

As he went deeper, the steep vertical cliff began to mellow out and become a steep flank.

A bit deeper.

The flank became a normal horizontal path.

Another line of glowing text scrolled through the War God UI.

[Attention please, a weaponized demonic god is ahead]

Gu Qing Shan became tense.

He could already feel it without the notice.

The overwhelming destructive presence was so powerful it was almost like a dense liquid that filled this entire space.

Fortunately, such a presence only passed through him before moving away.

It seems the thing has recognized him as an ally.

Gu Qing Shan held his breath and kept moving forward.

Finally, he was facing the Demon Lord in the dark tunnel.

It was a 1000-meter tall giant’s upper half.

The bottom half of the giant was nowhere to be seen, only the top part was still intact.

Dozens of weird arms hung loose behind the giant’s back.

A long arm, a thick arm, an arm completely made of ice ——–Gu Qing Shan even saw an arm that was stuck full of ears.

Gu Qing Shan believed fully that every single one of those arms contained immeasurable power.

The giant had its eyes closed, seemingly asleep.

It leaned on the rocky wall as it rests, the gigantic body almost fully blocking the dark tunnel behind.
