In fact, it wasn’t like Gu Qing Shan had no way to deal with it.

Halfway through the battle, he already checked the War God UI.

Before, when I killed the 11 Entropy Ghosts, my Soul Points had almost reached 1 million.

Even without spending the Soul Points, when I killed those Entropy Ghosts, the Taiyi Sword Array had once again been applied with [Iaido] four times, boosting its power to 16-fold.

Should I use the 16-fold Taiyi Sword Array to kill it?

No, that would be similar to killing a cockroach with a flamethrower.

The 16-fold Taiyi Sword Array is now my ace in the hole, a weapon to be used only at the most crucial moment.

It was because of this that Gu Qing Shan still hadn’t been fighting at full power yet.

“Are you sure Lightning Element is effective?” he asked.

The ancient life form replied in a loud voice: “Lightning is the tool of punishment of the Gods in our world, this was a Law established when the Gods created this world, that’s why its power vastly overshadows that of other elements, almost impossible to surpass”

Although the ancient life form looked hideous, he was speaking in a fluent pre-modern immigrant language.

This was a common language of Demis, also recorded in the Spire Keeper Association’s dictionary.

“Then I’ll give it a try” Gu Qing Shan said.

A few hundred meters away, the black monster once again stood up.

With a swift thought, Gu Qing Shan had the Earth sword and Chao Yin sword both fly towards the monster.

Ignoring the monster raising its arms up to defend, the Earth sword slashed downwards.

Dong!

The ground broke apart and sank, but the monster managed to withstand the Earth sword’s 86,370,000 tons of force.

However, the countless faces on its body screamed of pain in unison.

Obviously, the attack wasn’t completely useless.

Taking that chance, the Chao Yin sword pierced through the monster’s chest.

Lightning Thaumaturgy, [Severance]!

The monster was stunned in place, unable to move.

In the next three seconds, its soul vessel would be forced out of its body, incapable of controlling it.

What can he do in 3 seconds?

Gu Qing Shan suddenly appeared, taking the flying Earth sword in hand.

[Vacant]!

[Spur]!

[Wind Twist]!

[Consecutive]!

With a flash of the sword, all seven strikes were completed.

White-blue arcs of lightning the size of an arm quickly infused from Gu Qing Shan’s body into the Earth sword.

The brilliant electrical arcs flickered on and off around the Earth sword, illuminating the world around into a world of flashing lightning.

In a split second, several arcs of lightning had gathered on the Earth sword.

“[Flowing Dragon]!”

Gu Qing Shan shouted.

A ferocious dragon head made of blue lightning appeared from the tip of this sword.

Following the head was a winding dragon body made from a mix of lightning and sword phantoms, ascending to the sky from the Earth sword.

Roar!

The lightning dragon brought the monster all the way to the sky.

『 AaaAArG! No! Why is there still someone who knows how to use Lightning in this world—–! 』 the monster screeched in an ear-piercing tone.

Halfway through its flight, the lightning dragon turned into a blue orb of lightning, completely trapping the monster inside.

It was as if a blue sun had just appeared in the sky.

Night turned into day.

The black monster was slowly eaten away by the lightning.

The light faded.

Arcs of lightning scattered away through the sky before dissipating completely.

The black monster was nowhere to be seen.

It had been completely eliminated.

Seeing this, Gu Qing Shan finally understood.

So the Old Gods had established the Law of this world to have Lightning act as a punishment tool.

With the combined power of reinforced Lightning and the Six Paths Great Mountain sword’s anti-Law property, no wonder I could kill so many Entropy Ghosts so easily.

After all, no matter how weak they were, Entropy Ghosts are still Chaotic Demon Lords!

Gu Qing Shan turned back.

The ancient life form had turned back to an old man.

The old man opened his mouth wide, staring at the sky in shock all the way until the lightning dragon had disappeared.

Noticing Gu Qing Shan’s gaze, he finally snapped out of it.

“I’m sorry, I’ve never seen such impressive Lightning ever before” the old man said.

Seeing how he was covered in blood, Gu Qing Shan casually threw him a pill.

The old man received the pill and sniffed it.

His eyebrows raised.

Without hesitation, the old man put the pill in his mouth, chewed and swallowed.

“I still haven’t said anything and you’ve already eaten it? Aren’t you scared I might have done something?” Gu Qing Shan was surprised and asked.

“There’s no poison that can harm this old man, furthermore, with a few hundred years under my belt, this old man can easily tell that it’s a beneficial thing” the old man puffed out his chest and gloated.

“Then I’ll tell you something else, besides healing wounds, that pill I just gave also has a detoxifying effect”

“…Why didn’t you say that sooner”

Gu Qing Shan helplessly shrugged: “You already ate it before I got the chance to tell you”

The old man clutched his stomach, wobbling to find somewhere to expel his waste.

“Wait a minute, are there any other living people in this city?” Gu Qing Shan loudly asked behind him.

“I’m the last survivor here!”

While answering, the old man hurriedly ran into one of the coral buildings.

Gu Qing Shan was shocked.

“To be that reckless and still survive, seems like he’s quite strong” he muttered.

While waiting for the old man to go to the toilet, Gu Qing Shan headed towards the plaza from before.

He didn’t know exactly what the black monster did to make the entire plaza disappear like this.

It now had a really deep hole.

———a bottomless hole.

Gu Qing Shan tried releasing his inner sight downwards to check but still couldn’t reach the bottom.

Gu Qing Shan then walked around the area surrounding the plaza to take a look.

Beneath him, the originally dark blue ground had completely disappeared.

The ground of the plaza was now burning with a reddish-brown flame.

The flames appeared from the ground, constantly spreading when blown by the wind instead of being snuffed out.

At a glance, these flames seem to be sentient, as they all let out light and gathered together, forming an area completely quarantined from the rest.

The Earth sword spoke up: 「 These are the flames of Purgatory 」

“Purgatory? Is it a normal world?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

「 What do you mean by ‘normal’? 」

“Not covered by the [Demon King Order]”

「 It used to be quite normal, but who can say now 」the Earth sword answered.

“What about these flames?”

『 The flames of Purgatory had always been like this, sir 』another voice replied.

Gu Qing Shan looked back.

From moments unknown, a person had already appeared standing in the middle of the hole.

He was wearing a black business suit, from a glance you could tell he was quite tall and a polite gentleman.

『 Hello, Mr. Gu Qing Shan. I’m a representative of Purgatory. My master said that, if you won against that monster, you would qualify to accept our mediation 』

“Mediation?”

『 Indeed, my master would like to mediate between you and the [Demon King Order] 』

“Why so?”

『 Mr. Gu Qing Shan, a world’s civilization, or rather, all of the worlds’ civilizations, do you know why they are called ‘civilization’? 』

“I don’t like guessing games. If you have something to say, go ahead say it”

The man stretched out one finger and answered: 『 Only [Order] can represent the existence of a civilization 』

[Order]?

Gu Qing Shan became cautious.

“But I heard that Purgatory was supposed to be the most chaotic place there is” he said.

『 Ah, indeed our place is chaotic, but chaos is also a type of [Order], and the master of Purgatory enjoys chaos 』the man replied.

“Why exactly did you come here to find me?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

『 Mr. Gu Qing Shan, in truth, both you and I shouldn’t be here 』

“What do you mean by that?”

『 [Worlds Apocalypse Online] is the [Demon King Order], but you yourself don’t represent any [Order] at all, so we hope that you will become a bystander, that way you will obtain the friendship of Purgatory 』

“So you belong with [Worlds Apocalypse Online]?”

『 No, we are a neutral party 』

The black suit man kept talking: 『 If you are willing to stop, or even better, leave right away, we of Purgatory would be more than willing to help you leave the battlefield, furthermore we guarantee that the [Demon King Order] will never affect you ever again 』

“Why do you need to mediate?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The man smiled apologetically: 『 If I answer that, our secret will be revealed, so I’m sorry 』

『 Mr. Gu Qing Shan, accept the mediation, that way the [Demon King Order] will stay away from you, and our Purgatory would always welcome you as our esteemed guest 』

“You’re convinced you can persuade me?”

『 Indeed, because you, sir, are only a small insect. And since you don’t belong to any [Order], there isn’t a reason for you to seek death 』

“It seems your actions are to flatter or please someone”

『 You are sharp. Too sharp. Mr. Gu Qing Shan, please tell me your choice now, I am not able to tell you anything else 』

“I refuse”

『 Are you sure? My apologies, it seems I’ve forgotten to tell you what would happen if you refuse 』

“Then go on, I’m listening”

『 If you refuse our mediation—- 』the man smiled full of malice, 『 when you die, the master of Purgatory will personally come to collect your soul, you will be burned in the furnace of Purgatory for eternity. No matter how much you cry, scream, or regret your choice, you will be given no second chance 』

Gu Qing Shan went silent briefly before nodding: “It seems your master and I have the same idea”

The man smiled: 『 The same idea? Very well, Mr. Gu Qing Shan, please tell me what that is 』

Gu Qing Shan also smiled: “Indeed, from today onwards, your master and I, both of us will gain an arch-enemy”
