Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1735: Exposed!

Translator: La0o9

The blade of Tribulation Lightning was finally lifted.

The Qilin smiled flatteringly: [ Sir, I assure you that leaving me alive is the best possible choice, I’ll provide you with all the support you’ll ever need J

It lightly left a bag of money that was half as tall as an adult human on the ground, then pushed it towards Gu Qing Shan in an unnoticeable manner.

Gu Qing Shan was indifferent, only reacting by lightly placing his hand over the bag.

In an instant, the entire bag shrunk down.

Seeing him taking the money, the Qilin couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

a—-+ seems like I’m alive for now.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t bother to say anything to the Qilin and instead turned his gaze towards the void of space.

A few lines of bloody red text had manifested in mid-air:

[You’ve earned enough money for another payment]

(The Book of the Sea had collected its debt]

[Attention, you’ve finished paying the debt of 1 day]

[You still owe the Book of the Sea wealth equivalent to 3000 years and 1 day]

(Do your best!]

Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed over that without a single change in his expression.

Paying off the debt was not noteworthy.

‘What he was truly concerned with was the matter regarding the Divine Artifacts and Merit.

considering that it was related to Shannu, no amount of commitment would be excessive.

“Qilin, Ihave a question” Gu Qing Shan said.

I Please go ahead and ask, sir | the Qilin respectfully answered him.

“If one doesn’t earn enough Merit, they would lose their Divine Artifact—— what if one earned too much Merit?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Then they would receive a more powerful Divine Artifact and a higher Deific position | the Qilin answered.

Gu Qing Shan raised an eyebrow: “What if the Chosen Saint doesn’t want a more powerful Divine Artifact and instead only wants their original weapon?”

[ Don’t want a more powerful weapon? Would there be such a moron? J the Qilin tilted its head and asked.

“Just answer the question” Gu Qing Shan replied.

T No one could possibly know the answer to this. As the Human realm has yet to be fully established, no one could know something so far ahead in the future yet-

not even the Heavenly Palace | the Qilin answered.

Gu Qing Shan fell silent.

Just thinking about the possibility of losing the Six Paths Great Mountain sword was causing him extreme anxiety, which only further increased the more he thought about it, causing him to be unable to calm down.

“What’s the best way to collect a huge amount of Merit?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[ Outside, the only thing to do is kill Elemental monsters, but if one has a chance to enter the Elements War Zone, there are other things that they can resolve | the Qilin answered.

“For example?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[ For example, the Apocalypses that remained within the Samsara, powerful monsters from the Boundless Void, or even the traitorous races during the previous Samsara war. All of them are issues that the Samsara wants resolved, which Chosen Saints can attempt to earn Merits | the Qilin explained.

“Is that so, I understand—–”

Gu Qing Shan pulled his blade and continued: “Now, I want you to make a Samsara vow to follow me from now on and never betray me, then I’ll spare your life”

The Qilin sighed: [ Fine, I’d rather betray the Heavenly Palace than to lose my Chosen Saint qualifications |

Shu!

The scales on its chest suddenly broke open, causing blood to spill all over the ground.

The Qilin confusedly looked down.

Only to see a blob of flesh wiggling within its chest cavity.

The blob of flesh quickly transformed into an insect with two transparent wings and a colorful body.

The insect was only as small as a finger, but the Qilin was completely suppressed by it.

The Qilin’s expression was changing constantly, displaying anger mixed with regret and fear.

It suddenly looked at Gu Qing Shan and screamed out: [ Save me! HURRY AND SAVE ME! J

“How do I save you?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

He looked at the small insect, sensing a deep ominous feeling from it.

But before the Qilin even gave an answer, the colorful insect uttered a sharp and curt cry:

f Traitor of the Heavenly Palace, die! |

With that cry, the insect crawled back into the Qilin’s chest while the part of its body that was on the outside suddenly transformed into a pair of razor-sharp blades.

The Qilin’s expression became frozen.

It suddenly spat up blood and spoke in a discontinuous voice: [ ... I... Ijust wanted to survive... |

The Qilin’s body was abruptly ripped in half, spilling its blood everywhere before falling to the ground with a ‘thud’.

—–4 it was dead, just like that.

Gu Qing Shan silently observed this scene while feeling a cold sweat building up on his back.

See some sort of monster was crawling out from the Qilin’s stomach.

It looked no different from a human except its arms, which were a literal pair of blades.

T ...Traitors of the Heavenly Palace... will die without exception! J

The monster stared closely at Gu Qing Shan without concealing its killing intent at all.

Gu Qing Shan lightly swung his blade.

The Tribulation Lightning on the blade immediately roared with a thunderous bang.

“You kill one and out comes another, when is this going to end?” Gu Qing Shan sighed.

T You’re getting ahead of yourself, I’ll be sending you to Huang Quan right here and now! J the monster’s figure flashed and vanished from where it was standing.

Fast!

Gu Qing Shan turned into a bolt of lightning and instantly moved to avoid his enemy’s attack.

f Trying to run? J

The monster called out, also transforming into a streak of light that closely gave chase behind the bolt of lightning.

The two entities of light began to circle around the Qil:

‘s body, their speed both reaching a similar limit, unable to reach the other.

“—-Who told you I wanted to run!?”

Gu Qing Shan abruptly tumed around and swung his blade with all his strength towards the monster!

It reacted extremely quickly and instantly used one of its blade arms to receive the blow——-

Clang!

The sound of metal clashing reverberated throughout the void of space.

With countless arcs of lightning dispersing around him, the blade in Gu Qing Shan’s hand was broken in half.

Some of the arcs of lightning lingered around the monster’s body before finally dispersing as well.

It was clearly a direct hit, but the monster was completely unfazed.

a—– the Tribulation Lightning was ineffective?

Gu Qing Shan felt a bit shocked.

At this point, his bow was close to snapping, and his blade was already broken, so he had no weapons he could use.

On the other hand, the monster seemed to have faced a tough issue as well.

T This is real Tribulation Lightning? Could you be a stray heavenly being...? No, you are definitely not a heavenly being, then who exactly are you? J

The monster stared closely at Gu Qing Shan, its thoughts completely indiscernible from its expression.

Meanwhile, Gu Qing Shan tilted his head a bit to take a closer look at the Qilin’s body.

noo although this Qilin was an enemy, it had surrendered itself to me in the end.

Talso wanted to take it under my wings, but I didn’t think that it would die just like that.

on from the Qilin’s reaction just now, it also didn’t know that it was carrying this thing.

If this is the Heavenly Palace’s handiwork—–

Then they don’t trust even their own men, readily eliminating them as soon as the slightest hint of abnormality.

Such an organization must have already made countless preparations.

Even if the Samsara had stripped the heavenly beings of their Deific positions, it wouldn’t have affected the Heavenly Palace much at all, at least, not until the day that all Deific positions are reestablished.

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking this, a voice resounded in his ears:

T This malicious power... it’s a Heavenly Devourer Gu Insect! |

Seal this was the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword’s voice!

Gu Qing Shan immediately asked: “Are you awake?”

T Hm, after sensing the power of the Heavenly Devourer Gu Insect, I woke up—-~ listen to me, you are currently in an extremely bad situation, it’s impossible for you to deal with this fellow in front of you | the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword told him.

“T feel like we’re evenly matched” Gu Qing Shan refuted.

[ It has the ability to summon the heavenly beings of the Heavenly Palace, ignoring the distance between realms | the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword explained.

Alright, if that’s the case, I really am no match” Gu Qing Shan accepted.

I That’s why, prepare to run | the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword informed him.

Gu Qing Shan felt surprised.

He suddenly noticed that he was holding something cold and hard in his hand.

an—- a fragment of the Divine Sword.

“What are you doing?” Gu Qing Shan curiously asked.

T I’m covertly absorbing the power within the Qilin’s blood. Its blood contains the spiritual power of the Samsara, which can supply me with some Samsara Origin power——- after which I would be able to take you with me and flee | the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword explained.

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the ground.

He saw the red-stained dirt on the ground gradually turned a dull grey color.

[ If you want to live, stall for a bit more time | the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword sent its voice to him.

Gu Qing Shan turned his attention towards his opponent.

Only to see the monster had now spread a nearly-transparent pair of bird wings behind its back.

TI think I know who you are already, after all... you are one of those that definitely must be killed... | the monster muttered in a low voice.

Gu Qing Shan instantly felt immense killing intent being emitted from the monster once again.

on iin this situation, the only choice is to fight.

My opponent is a true killing machine!

Gu Qing Shan sighed heavily: “You people, I kill one and out comes another, you were the one that started this”

He raised the half-broken blade again.

In the sky, a crimson bolt of Tribulation Lightning descended onto the broken blade, manifesting into a crimson blade.

a—— Soul Eradicating Lightning.

This type of lightning was stronger than the rest.

Gu Qing Shan shifted into a fighting stance as arcs of lightning gradually crackled from his body.

T Soul Eradicating Lightning? J

The monster spoke in a mocking voice: [ Seems like it is you. You’re completely clueless about what you actually face, you aren’t the other target we’re looking for J

“Who are you looking for?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

f Less nonsense, your time of death is nigh! ] the monster declared.

Several dozen rays of light began to separate from its body, which manifested a natural formation in the void of space——

Fwoom!

Spatial fluctuations could be felt emanating from the formation.

In an instant, numerous heavenly beings appeared out of thin air.

These heavenly beings filled all the space within their surroundings, completely encircling Gu Qing Shan and the monster without leaving a single gap.

Each of them exuded a presence similar in strength to the monster that Gu Qing Shan had just fought.

One of the heavenly beings dressed in official clothing stood in the void of space, declaring towards him from above: “We’ve finally caught you, Chosen Saint of the Wraith realm, Gu Qing Shan!”

Gu Qing Shan looked around himself.

ao the void of space has been completely surrounded, there’s no room to escape at all.

Gu Qing Shan asked in a whisper: “Done?”

T We’re going now, don’t speak | the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword’s voice resounded in his ears.

Before it finished speaking, the world around them was already gone.

Gu Qing Shan now found himself standing in the middle of vast nothingness.

He couldn’t see anything around him at all, but he could hear and feel the howling wind constantly blowing by his ears.
