Worlds’ Apocalypse Online Chapter 690

Chapter 689 - Life Observer

There were almost an infinite amount of worlds within the 900 million World Layers.

And among these innumerable worlds, there existed a unique type of world that was different from the rest.

They were the first worlds to be formed into this universe, some of them even before the birth of the Gods.

These unique worlds were formed naturally and not made by the Gods.

Such worlds were commonly referred to as Prehistoric Worlds.

And this world that Gu Qing Shan was currently on, was one of those Prehistoric Worlds.

Through countless years, the struggles these worlds went through far surpassed most other worlds.

Because of a certain characteristic among many that their World Origin possesses.

—–Eternal.

Every creation of the Old Gods would naturally come to an end sooner or later.

But Prehistoric Worlds possessed the ‘Eternal’ characteristic.

Even the historical calamities that were said to have destroyed everything only temporarily destroyed them.

After just a few years, their world Laws would once again fuse the fragments back together.

A Prehistoric World would always reform itself.

Naturally, a Prehistoric World after reformation would have differences as compared to how it was before.

For living beings of billions of worlds, this type of ‘Eternal’ that came close to that of Gods naturally became the most interesting thing, especially to Combatants who stand at the very top.

This world of sand had gone through a total of 37 owners, 61 times of natural destruction, 9 times caught in the mass destruction of many worlds, and 7,925 times of being destroyed by wars.

The book Gu Qing Shan was reading detailed the events of this world’s 5th destruction.

At the time, a Lord-class Combatant of overwhelming power defeated the previous owner of this desert world and took it over.

His power largely came from his unique ability

———the power to replicate himself.

He had the ability to perfectly create a copy of himself.

This wasn’t the same as cloning or incarnation techniques, as the one created from this ability would become a real living, breathing person.

The newly reborn ‘him’ would keep all of his experience and memories, losing only his strength.

As long as the new ‘him’ trained himself again from scratch, he could once again become as powerful as he used to be.

And the Lord-class Combatant would always fully commit himself to nurture his copy after they split.

Just like that, the new ‘him’ would quickly mature and become powerful in an extremely short amount of time without running into any actual danger on the way.

When this Lord took over Drifting Sand world, he had already reached 70 copies of himself.

By himself, he had the power of 70 Lords!

The reason why he took over Drifting Sand world in the first place was to study the ‘Eternal’ Law that this world possessed.

At first, everything was normal.

He received a lot of new understanding from observing the world’s natural cycle and operation.

But one day, while this Lord was studying the ‘Eternal’ Law, he went insane.

10 of his incarnations attacked each other, not only did they kill one another, but they also destroyed the world in the process.

After Gu Qing Shan was done reading the book, he closed it up.

The book asked him: [Do you want to read something else?]

Gu Qing Shan looked ahead.

About a dozen armed guards were observing the queue at the entrance into town.

Whenever someone reached the door, the guards would point their weapons at the person.

Anybody that wanted to proceed into town from that point would have to place their hand on a book that was floating in the air.

It was a particularly thick, silver-back book.

The book had a name, the Life Observer.

The Life Observer would decide whether or not the person would be allowed entry into the town.

And currently, the queue was still ridiculously long, it wouldn’t be for a while until he would even reach the entrance.

Gu Qing Shan answered: “If possible, I would like to read more about this world”

[Please wait a moment]

The book answered him and flew up to the sky.

Soon enough, another book hovered in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan took the book, flipped through its pages and focused himself on reading.

This book talked about a certain civilization that was once born in this desert world.

The civilization in question was an orthodox magic-type civilization, telling the story of its journey to the peak of prosperity over 13,000 years.

At the time, this civilization was connected to several billion worlds, and its people were able to freely travel to and from several World Layers at will.

All of a sudden, this civilization stopped their outward exploration.

——-they found out that the world they were born in was a Prehistoric World.

So they decided to instead explore the secrets of their own homeworld.

A few years later.

Over a single night, the entire civilization collapsed.

The billions of worlds connected to them before completely lost contact with them.

Several days later, because of their curiosity, the Combatants of other worlds arrived to check the situation.

They discovered that the entire civilization had collapsed, leaving nothing but countless ruins on this world.

Every single living being was dead.

The world simply began its cycle anew.

The scene at the time caused all the witnesses to shake in their boots.

A glorious, thriving civilization suddenly came to an end without any warnings.

Gu Qing Shan closed the book and slightly scowled.

[Would you like to read something else?] the book asked.

Gu Qing Shan looked ahead again.

The queue was still slowly moving along.

“Yes. Please give me another book” he replied.

The book flew back to the sky before another book descended in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Reading this book, Gu Qing Shan once again saw another journey of this world’s destruction.

As he stood in the queue, he finished reading several books, in which this world was always being destroyed and reformed, repeating itself.

No matter if it was a Combatant or a civilization, those who occupied this world all met a terrible end.

People gradually understood.

This Prehistoric World was most likely hiding a sort of strange ‘curse’, or something of similar nature.

And no one dared to approach this world anymore.

Until 1700 years ago.

The owner of the black market came to this world.

He gave up on ruling this world and only built a black market here.

From the very start, nothing bad ever happened to those who came here purely for transaction purposes.

And because of the owner’s might, no one wanted to risk their lives by trying anything.

The owner of the black market also didn’t interfere with the various Combatants who arrived to study this world.

He allowed those Combatants to come and go as they pleased, freely studying the secret of the world.

So those Combatants also had no reason to provoke the black market.

In fact, due to its existence here, the Combatants’ rest and supplies during their period of research were supported by the black market instead.

Just like that, the black market won the approval of many.

As time passed, the black market grew more and more prosperous.

These were the events of the most recent 1000 years.

Gu Qing Shan closed the book and let the book fly back into the sky.

This time, he didn’t ask for a new book.

Because after such a long wait standing in line, there were only two people left in front of Gu Qing Shan, it would soon be his turn to enter the town.

At this time, at the entrance into town.

A man with a sniper rifle on his back placed his hand on the cover of the Life Observer.

He was currently undergoing the silver book’s test.

[Technological, Hawk-winged race, allow passage] the Life Observer spoke with an exhausted tone.

The man walked into town under the watchful eyes of the guards.

There was only one person left before Gu Qing Shan.

It was a tall, lanky man.

He walked up to the entrance and placed his hand on the silver book.

The Life Observer paused briefly before speaking in a sluggish voice: [Elementalist, Dark Elemental creature, completely normal]

Hearing that, the lanky man’s expression loosened.

But he didn’t notice that as soon as the silver book said ‘completely normal’, the guards all turned their attention to him.

The man began to walk into town.

Behind him, the Life Observer suddenly shouted: [Kill him!]

The prepared guards attacked him all at once without holding back.

The lanky man’s expression changed.

He only managed to turn into a huge blob of dark substance before being eliminated without mounting any retaliation.

The dark substance that made up his body collapsed and scattered, disappearing like smoke in the wind.

After dealing with the creature, the guards slowly made their way back.

One of the guards asked the Life Observer: “Sir, what’s the situation?”

The Life Observer responded: [A bastard who carries Worlds Apocalypse Online: Kindling. I could smell the scent of an Order from miles away]

The guard appeared a bit anxious and spoke: “This is already the 15th one, what exactly is the [Demon King Order] trying to do?”

[Don’t care, as long as they’re related to an Order, they won’t fool me] the Life Observer said.

It then called out to Gu Qing Shan: [Your turn, step forward]

The guards all focused their attention on Gu Qing Shan.

Would two envoys of the [Demon King Order] show up in a row?

They once again gripped their weapons tight.

Gu Qing Shan casually stepped forward and placed his hand on the silver book.

I’m not carrying the [Demon King Order].

But I have carried the [Demon King Order], [Angel Order] as well as [Life Order] once each.

Can this book detect that?

Gu Qing Shan felt a bit tense.

Soon enough, he felt a power flowing from the book into his body and made a round trip around it.

This was probably the Life Observer’s probing.

Time quickly passed.

But the Life Observer said nothing.

This was strange.

The guards slowly started to show their killing intent.

Gu Qing Shan kept silent and circulated spirit energy inside his body, preparing for battle.

All of a sudden, the Life Observer laughed.

[Gahahahaha!]

It shouted: [A human cultivator——— as soon as he got off the First Zone, he got flung into the space vortex when the Life Order broke down, what an unlucky bastard!]

Gu Qing Shan sneaked a glance around.

The guards’ breathing calmed down as their grip on their weapons loosened slightly.

They couldn’t help but all smiled at another person’s misfortune.

The [Life Order] was supposed to be the method to help novices quickly gain strength.

Unfortunately, with the advent of the path to Godhood, the [Life Order] was broken by the seven Gods’ preparations, turning into power for the figure of light.

And this novice just happened to be traveling through the space vortex when that happened, that really is unlucky.

Being able to make it here without being devoured by void monsters is already quite a feat.

However, this also makes him clean.

The 900 million World Layers alliance’s Profession Committee had always been strict in their work, so there shouldn’t be any problems with a novice who passed their test.

Gu Qing Shan looked at the group to see that they were all grinning brightly.

He could only shrug and smile bitterly as he spoke: “Can’t help it, it’s my luck”

Hearing that, the guards’ grins became even bigger.

[Get in, hapless fellow, hope your luck turns around] the Life Observer told him.

“Thanks”

Gu Qing Shan walked past it.

As he walked, he was still using his inner sight to carefully observe the guards.

Only to see that the guards really did shift their attention away from him onto the next person.

—–seems like I passed for real.

He peacefully entered the small town.
