Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1503: Lord of Infinite Origins

Countless years later.

The Temporal Oasis, the world of the Spire.

Little Dusk had woken up and was resting.

All the Combatants had gathered here.

Kitty was explaining what happened to her.

“So many things have happened already?” Little Dusk looked at the unfamiliar faces around her and asked in surprise.

Kitty said: “Indeed. And now the Empress of the Bramble Bird, Laura, had spent a lot of effort in order to awaken you prematurely”

Little Dusk seemed puzzled: “I could have slowly absorbed power from around me to slowly awaken, why did she insist on awakening me in so much hurry?”

“I don’t know, but she seemed to have some sort of plan” Zhang Ying Hao shrugged.

Little Dusk asked: “Where is she?”

Ye Fei Li explained: “She’s tidying up what remained of the magic ritual, perhaps we’ll see her coming soo——”

Bam!

The door was kicked open as Laura rushed in.

“Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! Big sis Little Dusk, I need your help as well”

Laura took Little Dusk’s hand and hurriedly said.

“Huh? What happened?” Little Dusk puzzledly asked.

Laura showed her a purple length of rope.

——the Twine of Cloud Atlas.

She had another Twine of Cloud Atlas!

Or rather, this was perhaps the other half of the same Twine of Cloud Atlas?

While Gu Qing Shan was within the Tomb of Myriad Beasts competing against the Apocalypses in the great tomb, she once used this Twine of Cloud Atlas to eavesdrop on Gu Qing Shan.

This length of rope had the ability to bypass Space and Time!

Laura took a deep breath, then said: “You’re going to help us help Qing Shan”

This was a bit of a strange request, so Little Dusk was still confused and asked: “Huh? What do you mean?”

“You can help Gu Qing Shan” Laura explained.

“But didn’t Gu Qing Shan already travel back to the Age of Immemorial?” Little Dusk asked.

Laura quickly told her: “He’s currently in a very dangerous situation, we need your help to send him everything that would be able to help him”

Little Dusk pondered briefly and asked: “You mean- the [Duo Image] state?”

“Yes, when you were taken back from the Holy Church of Fate by Su Xue Er and big sis Ning handed you over to Qing Shan, all of us were present!”

Laura continued: “I saw with my own eyes how Gu Qing Shan drew a Card from you, which was a phonograph- you had used this method to inform Gu Qing Shan of the situation!”

Ye Fei Li and Zhang Ying Hao both nodded.

They also recall something like that happening at the time.

Little Dusk sighed and explained: “If I use the [Duo Image] Card, I would certainly be able to send him something, but regretfully, that only applies if we’re in the same Space-Time”

Laura tied the long purple length of rope around Little Dusk’s hand and said: “This is an Occultism treasure, the other half of it is currently in Gu Qing Shan’s hand, we would be able to use it to send him one item—— but only once!”

Everyone was surprised.

Both Gu Qing Shan and Boss were currently in that era of the past, so if they were able to help them, everyone would certainly be willing to help, even if it meant handing over their most precious weapon”

Little Dusk sincerely told her: “If Space-Time doesn’t need to be considered, I would be able to use [Duo Image], but I have to turn the item into a Card for him to be able to draw it- and I don’t have any Cards right now”

“I do”

Laura took out a thick stack of empty Cards and put it in front of Little Dusk.

Anna suddenly asked: “Is Gu Qing Shan currently in a lot of danger?”

“Yes” Laura replied.

Anna took her black flame scythe from the void of space and asked: “Could I send this to him? He would probably be able to use it”

“We can’t, that scythe had already existed in that era, so if we sent it to him, one of them would only disappear” Laura replied.

Ye Ru Xi took out a hairpin and said: “How about this? This would be able to immediately awaken ten Awaitings from the [Chaos] faction to come to his aid”

“That won’t do either. The Awaitings hadn’t entered the Reality Gate during that era” Laura refused again.

Barry thought briefly and said: “How about you send me over?”

Everyone turned to him.

“I can’t die, so if I come back to them, I’d be able to fight for a very long time” Barry clenched his fist and said.

Little Dusk shook her head: “You are a living being, a living being can’t be turned into a Card. Not to mention, I can only have one partner, which is now Gu Qing Shan, so I wouldn’t be able to turn you into a Card that way either”

Anna glanced briefly at Little Dusk.

At this point, Ye Fei Li took out a canned drink and grinned: “Seems like it’s my time to shine”

“-Ever since our battle with the Soul Shrieker, I’ve stocked up an innumerable number of canned energy drinks, which consists of every type of energy. It would definitely allow Gu Qing Shan to battle much more freely and even quickly heal in case he’s wounded”

Everyone looked at the canned drink in his hand and fell into thought.

Ye Fei Li’s idea is quite good.

Not to mention, his canned drinks were certainly considered an extremely rare commodity within the infinite worlds, even Boss had to rely on him in order to heal his past injuries.

Barry asked: “Little Dusk, what do you think?”

Little Dusk said: “If we can only send him one item and only this one time, we can try to fit as many canned drinks as possible into a storage item. After that, I can simply put that storage item into a blank Card”

Everyone sighed in relief.

That’s very simple to do.

Barry concluded: “Then let’s decide on that, we’re going to put Ye Fei Li’s energy drinks into a storage item, then use [Duo Image] to send it to Gu Qing Shan!”

Everyone nodded.

Right as Ye Fei Li was about to go get his energy drinks, someone called out: “Wait a moment!”

He turned to the voice and saw that it was Laura.

“What is it? Do you have a better option?” Ye Fei Li asked.

“No, I also think your drinks are necessary for him- but I also have another idea” Laura said.

Everyone turned to see that she had clenched her tiny hands tightly, seemingly making up her mind about something.

…

The Age of Immemorial.

The secret room was now in the middle of endless darkness, wrapped around by a tentacle.

Scarlet retreated a few steps out of fright and grabbed her black flames scythe.

Boss also held tightly onto the Book of Prophesized Destinies with a solemn expression.

From the looks of it, he was preparing to rip out a certain page in the Book of Prophesized Destinies.

Gu Qing Shan put his hand up, signaling them not to attack.

“You want to kill me?” Gu Qing Shan grinned and asked.

Warped fluctuations appeared around Little Dusk’s body, which manifested as a voice:

「 Of course, you’ve continuously hindered my plans, so now I must use my powers to erase you as the thorn in my sides 」

Gu Qing Shan shrugged: “Can’t we cooperate instead?”

The voice paused briefly.

Gu Qing Shan sincerely said: “Take a look, I am the embodiment of the Law of Death, while Shroud was the embodiment of the Law of Radiance. The two of us will help you, then take whatever benefits we can get, wouldn’t that be mutually beneficial?”

The voice mocked: 「 You two? One had exhausted all of his strength, while the other was injured without even 20% of his strength remaining. How exactly would you be able to help me? 」

Gu Qing Shan took out a formation plate and quickly operated it.

An array of several dozen shining formations gradually appeared all over the secret room, then slowly disappeared into sprites of light and returned to the formation plate.

——earlier, to protect Boss, he used a lot of Huang Quan Origin power to arrange this formation array.

“To express sincerity, I’ve taken back all of my formations. After this, if you’re willing to let us regain our power, we’d actually be a couple of very good lackeys”

Gu Qing Shan replied.

He put the formation plate back into his Thought Sea, silently absorbing the Huang Quan Origin power within.

This couldn’t be helped. At this point in time, every little bit of power could be the difference between life and death for everyone here, so he had to retrieve it.

The voice slowly pondered: 「 An Overlord of Death, and an Overlord of Radiance, this combination… 」

It appeared to be hesitating.

On the screen displayed by the Sacred Gate, the tentacle had opened all of its vertical irises wide, staring at Gu Qing Shan.

It was evaluating him.

「 Tell me, how did you notice me? If you can give a satisfactory answer, I will consider it 」the voice finally said.

Gu Qing Shan silently absorbed the Huang Quan Origin power and replied: “That’s very simple. The first reason was because Reneedol had appeared at a very strange time”

「 What do you mean? 」the voice asked.

“At first, you tried to make it seem like the pixies were playing a prank at the door, which was still believable, but Reneedol’s appearance made the entire matter unnatural” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The Huang Quan Origin power within the formation plate continuously flowed into his body.

——if he fully absorbed it, he would probably replenish around 5% more of his strength.

It was only 5%.

But it was still better than nothing.

Being able to unleash even one more sword strike could make the entire difference.

「 Simply because of that? Your explanation does not show me your value at all 」the voice said with dissatisfaction.

Gu Qing Shan replied: “In reality, the most crucial reason was the Destined Fable that Boss had told”

「 Oh? Why do you think it wasn’t me who manipulated that fable? 」the voice asked.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “I suspect that you hadn’t even considered that he would tell a Destined Fable. Most likely, not even he had thought of it, as this is actually a part of the human subconscious”

「 Subconscious? 」

“That’s right, he wanted to resist against something. He had already realized that something was wrong, but he wasn’t sure what, nor could he express it into words, so when I told him to announce something to everyone, he decided to tell a Destined Fable”

Gu Qing Shan explained.

-in truth, the six Sealing Tokens were also like this.

When Boss was at this peak, he didn’t notice anything wrong at all, but he instinctively set them up.

Even the giant corpse praised this.

Gu Qing Shan smiled and said: “Since you’re already looking to act against us, I assume that you wouldn’t specifically use a fable to remind us that that danger was already at our doorsteps”

「 Indeed, I would not do such a thing 」the voice admitted.

“That’s why, I trusted in the Destined Fable—— Fate had not and would not ever pretend. Only after a prophecy occurred in front of your eyes would you realize just how true it was. Additionally, I’ve studied the murals all over the Pantheon and discovered how the three Deities of Fate were their rulers, this meant that even Deities had their fates to adhere to, so I concluded that there would definitely be danger” Gu Qing Shan followed up.

「 I still think your conjecture does not fully explain everything 」the voice said.

Gu Qing Shan continued: “There was one more thing”

In this Thought Sea, the yellow glow of the formation plate had almost been fully absorbed into Gu Qing Shan’s body.

「 Oh? What else was there? 」the voice asked in interest.

“This is the very first time I’ve seen an entity who could manipulate someone’s thoughts, but you regretfully seem to not be able to manipulate Scarlet and I” Gu Qing Shan said.

“Only Scarlet and I weren’t under your control. I might have been an exception one way or another, but why could you not manipulate Scarlet?”

Gu Qing Shan answered it by himself: “Because Scarlet currently belong to your world system, she now belong to the Samsara”

“Earlier, you called me ‘visitor from outside the Reality Gate’, which made it clear that the range of your influence should be living beings who were originally inside the Reality Gate”

“The fact that you were able to influence even a being born from the Tree of Fate and an Overlord proved just how distinguished your existence must me”

“I heard that——”

“In the distant past, all the Laws of Reality had converged to create the first entity who wielded infinite Origin power”

“This entity created hundreds of thousands of Deities and perfectly controlled them”

“No matter how much I thought about it, being able to affect an Overlord’s thought, as well as influence the power of a Fruit of Fate to display an illusion to us——”

“You were, in fact, that entity who wielded infinite Origin power, aren’t you?”

——he had finished absorbing all the Huang Quan Origin power from the formation plate.

It was only 5% more power.

Gu Qing Shan silently sighed and prepared for an answer from the other party.

In reality, this was the calm before the storm that would decide their survival.

He held no such wishful thinking that the other party would let their group go.

Right at this moment, the War God UI lit up.

Perhaps knowing that it was an emergency, lines of glowing text were displaying at record speed:

[Unique Card: Duo Image, has been activated]

[Angel of Condemnation - Dusk is entering synchronization]

[Angel of Condemnation - Gu Qing Shan is entering synchronization]

[Synchronization complete]

[You’ve entered the Duo Image combat state!]
