Worlds’ Apocalypse Online Chapter 574

Chapter 573 - A burnt child dreads the fire

Edited by: Dr.Lock

Proofreader:  Arya

The black horse was running at full speed.

Gu Qing Shan sat tight on the horse’s back, observing the army of ghosts ahead.

Two ghosts that were around 7-8 meters tall ran back and forth, loudly urging the scattered troops to rally again.

With weapons in hand, they killed every ghost or revenant that refused to listen to their orders.

Under such forceful persuasion, the ghosts stopped being restless and quickly followed their superior’s orders.

At this rate, given just a bit of time, the ghost troops would reorganize into an army.

Even though their numbers had been greatly culled compared to before, the remaining army still easily totalled up to the hundred thousand.

Against this number of enemies of this level, even Gu Qing Shan wouldn’t be able to do anything.

If he really did charge straight into the army of over a hundred thousand ghosts, he would die.

—–unless he had another 32-fold power Taiyi Sword Array.

But that was impossible.

Gu Qing Shan muttered as he charged forward, “But I can’t let you reorganize yourselves so simply either, otherwise there would be trouble…”

His mind moved.

Oong!

The Earth sword appeared from the void of space.

“Up” Gu Qing Shan said.

The Earth sword disappeared in a flash as it shot towards the sky.

A few moments later—–

A blurred shadow fell from the sky, quickly crashing down towards the army of ghosts.

This was the Earth sword, flying downwards with its weight of 86,370,000 tons.

Height, speed, force, with these three combined factors, Gu Qing Shan didn’t even need to consider using any sword techniques.

He simply guided the Earth sword and aimed towards one of the commander ghosts.

Boom!!!

The impact kicked up a huge cloud of dust.

The entire plains area shook.

The ghosts fell into chaos briefly.

A large, round hole appeared.

The commander ghost that was hit by the Earth sword got instantly vaporized.

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze turned to the other commander ghost.

Oong!

The Earth sword flew out from the hole, dashed through the air and headed straight towards the large ghost.

『 Aaaaaa, DIE!  』

The ghost swung its weapon, trying to stop the attack.

Kih!!

With a resounding sound of impact, the Earth sword’s strike was stopped by the commander ghost.

The commander ghost was forced back a few steps, falling on its butt.

Its head flew into the air, blood scattering everywhere.

At the moment the weapons clashed, another sword had appeared behind it and took its life.

Secret Art, [Swallow Returns]

Two commander ghosts, eliminated!

The rallying groups of ghosts were thoroughly thrown into chaos, showing signs of restlessness and unrest.

An Entropy Ghost managed to fly down just in turn, shouting towards all the ghosts.

As a sentient Chaotic Demon Lord, this Entropy Ghost took over command of the army.

Under its command, the ghosts and revenants slowly calmed down.

“Tch, a new problem, seems like it’s your turn now”

Gu Qing Shan said behind himself.

The Six Paths Great Mountain sword vibrated briefly before flying past the black horse and flew into the army of ghosts.

With a few gleams of light, the sword had already found its way into the army.

The autumn-like blue sword erupted in arcs of lightning, striking straight at the Entropy Ghost.

The Entropy Ghost quickly evaded!

It fled to the sky.

The sword spun once and turned into Shannu,

Holding the sword in her hand, her figure disappeared in a flash.

Divine Skill, [Ground Shrink]!

Shannu turned around in midair, slashing her sword at the escaping Entropy Ghost.

Secret Art, [Crescent Slash]!

A gigantic light blue crescent moon covered in a thin layer of lightning struck down from above.

Without being able to even utter a scream of pain, the Entropy Ghost was directly vaporized.

When the other Entropy Ghosts saw that, they quickly retreated.

Even from afar, they could feel the anti-Law property of this sword.

Not to mention the reinforced power of Lightning on it.

This sword was their natural-born killer, they can’t even attempt to resist even if they wanted to.

Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan nodded satisfyingly.

In a few moments, two commander ghosts were eliminated, an Entropy Ghost was destroyed, and the other Entropy Ghosts were forced to flee.

Now there was no one else to command the ghost army.

“Your turn”

He muttered behind himself.

The Chao Yin sword vibrated in joy and dashed out without being urged to.

It was also heading towards the ghost army.

All three swords had gathered in one place again.

Gu Qing Shan activated his hand seal.

Taiyi Sword Array, go!

The three swords surrounded the army of almost a hundred thousand ghosts and began to prepare their sword images again.

The sword images were being arranged in a unique formation in the void of space.

Some ghosts tried to attack the sword images, but found that their weapons directly passed through without being able to do any damage.

Sword images filled the air.

The wind began to pick up.

A faint gust of sword-infused wind could be felt.

The ghost army immediately recognized this prickly feeling.

Hundreds of thousands of ghosts all screamed in unison.

—–no, not this attack again!

This type of sword-infused wind had already left a deep scar in their minds.

The power of the 32-fold Taiyi Sword Array had struck fear deep into their core.

And now, the same wind began to pick up again.

The army of ghosts instantly made their moves.

——–without waiting for a single second, not even one ghost tried to stay behind to see how powerful this sword wind would actually be.

Because the only impression they had of the sword-infused wind was—–

Running one-second late meant death!

They threw down their weapons without hesitation and scattered.

They ignored everything else.

Survival over all!

In the blink of an eye, the newly rallied army once again split up all over.

And there wasn’t anyone to stop them from doing so.

Almost a hundred thousand ghosts ran for their lives, scattering into the forests outside the plains.

Gu Qing Shan held the horse back and urged it to stop.

When the army had fully scattered and there weren’t anymore ghosts on the plains, he dispelled the Taiyi Sword Array.

Even the normal Taiyi Sword Array cost spirit energy to use.

Since he already achieved his goal, there wasn’t a reason to waste spirit energy.

After all, even if he exhausted himself to death, he couldn’t possibly stop a hundred thousand ghosts alone.

“A burnt child dreads the fire, that kind of army is as good as useless”

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

He turned the horse around and headed back towards Tidal city.

After that scare, the army of ghosts probably won’t rally again so easily.

And to gather enough numbers for laying siege on Tidal city once again would be even harder.

Gu Qing Shan urged the horse to run fast, quickly returning to where Laura was.

“Ah? Why haven’t you returned to the city yet?” Gu Qing Shan asked with surprise.

“You big fraud, that was clearly just to deceive them” Laura said.

This guy is really too sly, being able to come up with such a method to chase the enemies away.

“I won’t fight a war campaign if something can be resolved in a simpler way, too tiring” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“What if those ghosts hadn’t ran away and instead charged at you?” Laura couldn’t help but asked.

“If they don’t run, I will. Let’s just say, I still have other solutions if push comes to shove” Gu Qing Shan casually said.

“Are you really ok like that…?”

“An enemy that’s scared to death isn’t scary no matter how many of them there are” Gu Qing Shan stroked her head, then habitually put her on his shoulder.

Laura very naturally took her seat, even adjusting her position to sit more comfortably.
