Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1743 The Ruler

The Wraith realm’s shelter.

The entrance. The legions of heavenly beings were still standing in formation at the entrance of the shelter, patiently waiting for Gu Qing Shan to exit the shelter.

If one took a closer look, one would find that all of them had anxious expressions on their faces.

—–the money that they were carrying had all disappeared without a single warning or sound.

No one would remain completely calm if something like that happened to them.

Not too far away from where the heavenly beings were stationed, a layer of unique frosty mist remained.

This was a technique that Shroud had left behind, specifically made to obscure one’s whereabouts.

Right at this moment.

Gu Qing Shan and Xie Dao Ling arrived.

They were standing within the cover of the frosty mist, both turning their attention towards the amalgamation monster.

“Where did this monster come from?” Xie Dao Ling asked.

——–the monster was still frozen within a layer of ice and pinned to the wall with a large icicle spear, immobilizing it. “It’s the amalgamation of void monsters who noticed the supernatural phenomena that occurred when the Beast King realm was initially fused together. They originally came to plunder the treasures of the Samsara, but instead became trapped and had no other choice but to fuse together like this to save their lives” Gu Qing Shan explained.

“Strange...”

Xie Dao Ling muttered and fell into thought as she observed the monster closely.

“Is there something wrong?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“The main Five Elements are currently in disarray mostly due to its existence, so as long as it is killed, the main Five Elements would instantly become established” Xie Dao Ling replied.

“That’s true, but acting against it now would alert the heavenly beings outside” Gu Qing Shan explained.

“No, that’s not where the problem lies” Xie Dao Ling shook her head.

She approached the monster and took out the jade orb from before, her hands quickly forming various seals.

“By the Laws of Reality, manifest!”

Xie Dao Ling grandly declared.

Zi zi—-

With a tiny noise, a piece of ice the size of a finger fell off the monster’s body.

As soon as the piece of ice fell off, it began to shake and rapidly transformed into a silver beetle.

Xie Dao Ling quickly shielded Gu Qing Shan behind her, then manifested a light in her hand that she quickly used to draw a beautiful talisman.

“Wind and rain suppress, lightning seals!”

The talisman manifested into a bolt of lightning that struck the silver beetle.

In an instant, the silver beetle vanished. At the same time, a crackling talisman began to drift backwards and hover in front of Xie Dao Ling.

As Xie Dao Ling caught the talisman, it was clear that the talisman now contained patterns depicting the beetle.

“This void monster was a complete moron, being sowed with a Gu insect that can take its life at any moment and not recognizing it at all” Xie Dao Ling commented.

Gu Qing Shan was shocked and asked: “This monster is so powerful, who exactly was it that could sow such an insect on its body without it noticing?”

“Within the Samsara, the foremost expert of Gu insects was the Heavenly Emperor” Xie Dao Ling replied.

Gu Qing Shan remained silent for a bit before commenting: “So the one who came here previously and taught it how to arrange the deathtrap for me was the Heavenly Emperor”

“Indeed, he is one who always thinks far before he acts”

“But why didn’t he kill this monster? He could have obtained a great deal of Merit by killing

it”

Xie Dao Ling sneered and explained: “Because he is the Heavenly Emperor—– even after the Samsara had reset, he still holds a great deal of priority that would allow him to enter the next phase before any of the other Chosen Saints. For that reason, he would rather prolong the reset progress as a whole” “I see, so he doesn’t want the Human realm to be stabilized——- in other words, he’s actually preventing all the other Chosen Saints from obtaining power and regaining their previous strength!” Gu Qing Shan realized.

“Exactly... in fact, the reason why your powers have not been unsealed even a little bit was due to him abusing the Laws of the Samsara, and since he was originally the Heavenly Emperor, he has already gone ahead and left everyone else far behind” Xie Dao Ling confirmed his conjectures.

“What an impressive fellow indeed” Gu Qing Shan sighed.

——-and I entered the Samsara later than everyone else, I wonder if I can still catch up to the Heavenly Emperor now.

Xie Dao Ling was still closely observing the talisman when she suddenly appeared shocked.

She then pressed her hand against Gu Qing Shan’s body.

“Not good, he has already realized what happened, you need to enter the Wraith realm’s shelter, now!” she quickly said.

“Hold on—– Shifu——-“.

Before Gu Qing Shan could finish his words, she had already pushed him, turning him into a ray of light that flew past all the heavenly beings and into the shelter’s entrance in the middle of all the starlight.

As soon as he was gone, a long sigh was heard:

“This Emperor had personally come here to arrest and kill Gu Qing Shan, but you let him

go”

Xie Dao Ling calmly replied: “He is my present life’s disciple, so how could I let you murder him?”

Fwoom——–

The entire mist of frost was dispersed.

A figure appeared from above, who lightly landed on top of the monster’s head.

The heavenly beings were immediately alerted of his presence and turned their attention to this side.

“It’s his majesty!”

“Long live his majesty!”

“Long live his majesty!”

The heavenly beings all declared in unison.

The figure was standing in the middle of the chilling air, so they were actually being obscured.

He spoke: “Xie Dao Ling, you currently are nothing but a fragment of a soul, how do you intend to stop me? Stay your hand and don’t be a hindrance”

Xie Dao Ling narrowed her eyes: “You are injured...”

“I’m still more than a match for you” the Heavenly Emperor casually replied.

Xie Dao Ling turned her hand and held the jade orb in her hand.

“I fell into your trap in the past because I wanted to save the Samsara, but now that I have an object to manifest the Laws, you might want to take another guess at which of us would be the winner this time around”

Right after saying that, she had already reached out her other hand.

Ten rays of distinct light appeared on her hand, which respectively represented the main and mutated Five Elements, manifested from the Samsara’s Origin.

This hand moved as rapidly as a shadow in the dark, which formed a seal——- Ten Realms Saint Art, [Absolute Sword of Nine Heavens]

The technique was completed!

In an instant, ten distinct rays of light began to ascend before they manifested into a black sword in the middle of the air.

As soon as the sword came into existence, the world itself seemed to have been frozen as well.

The legion of heavenly beings abruptly fell to their knees, unable to move a single muscle.

Standing within the layer of frost, the Heavenly Emperor shouted: “You impudent cur, how dare a mere soul fragment destroy my miniature Heavenly realm!”

The jade orb in Xie Dao Ling’s hand had already crumbled into a fine dust before being scattered in the wind, no longer to be seen.

——to manifest this Divine Skill, Xie Dao Ling had completely expended all of the small Heavenly Grotto’s power.

“Cease your nonsense until after you manage to stop this strike”

She coldly said.

On the other side.

Gu Qing Shan saw his vision becoming blurred before falling on the ground. “Shif—–“

He abruptly stopped before he could finish his words.

His surroundings were completely empty, with Xie Dao Ling nowhere to be seen.

There was nothing but fluttering grey flowers in the middle of the air, this entire world itself was devoid of life, countless deep holes could be seen all over the ground, but all of them were bottomless as far as the eye could see.

A gloomy flower descended from above and began to bloom in front of Gu Qing Shan. There was a skeleton who sat cross-legged within the flower.

The skeleton looked up at Gu Qing Shan and spoke: [ You are finally here, a successor of our realm ]

“Hurry up, if you have anything to say, then say it! I don’t have time!” Gu Qing Shan hurriedly said.

I could sense that killing intent focused on me earlier.

——-evidently, the Heavenly Emperor had arrived!

But Shifu sent me into the shelter while she remained alone to stop him. She was clearly worried that I would be in danger.

The power of (True Luck) has yet to fade from my body.

Since the golden coin had led the course of events to this moment, it’s evident that the best choice was for me to arrive here.

But what’s next?

Regardless, I need to quickly deal with the inheritance of the Wraith realm.

Shifu is still fighting outside!

[ Young one, are you in that much of a hurry? | the skeleton asked.

“I am, someone outside is currently fighting to protect me” Gu Qing Shan replied. [ Are they important to you? įthe skeleton asked.

“Yes, I can fight to the death for her sake and not regret it no matter what happens, so regardless of what’s going to happen here, please hurry it up” Gu Qing Shan answered in a low tone of voice.

The skeleton pondered: [ If that’s the case... let us take a look together ]

It reached out its hand and waved over the void of space.

Instantly, numerous images began to float and manifested into a transparent screen.

The scene of what was happening outside was instantly displayed on the screen.

Xie Dao Ling was holding onto a black sword.

The Heavenly Emperor was still hidden within the frosty mist, calling out with a loud voice: “That person is the disciple of your next life, he’s completely unrelated to your present self, there’s no need for you to risk a mutually assured destruction with me!”

Within the howling wind, Xie Dao Ling brandished her sword and muttered: “Although we’ve only just met, I simply like him as a person, it couldn’t be helped” The Heavenly Emperor abruptly emanated violent killing intent and shouted ferociously:

“The successor of the Wraith realm must die, even you cannot stop me!”

The screen suddenly shook and shattered.

“What happened? Why can’t we see anything anymore?” Gu Qing Shan hurriedly asked.

My clairvoyance technique couldn’t persist——– their powers were too great for it to endure | the skeleton sighed.

Gu Qing Shan was completely stunned.

—–such a battle couldn’t even be observed. The Heavenly Emperor had put up so many traps to prevent all the Chosen Saints, myself included, from unsealing our powers.

How am I supposed to fight him?

How can I save Shifu?

Suddenly his gaze became focused in the void of space. Lines of bloody red text were quickly manifesting:

(Your actions today have received the recognition of the Samsara] [The name of the ‘Pure Love Gang’ shall become renowned throughout the entire Samsara)

(That Title will receive the following Title Skill: Going Cold)

(The Skill has assimilated the correlating power and manifested as follows:]

(Going Cold: You will temporarily gain the ability of one member of the ‘Pure Love Gang’, with the price to pay being pain]

[The stronger the power you gain, the more pain you will have to endure, to the point that you can go insane, lose your mind, or even die from it]

[——The greater the gain, the greater the pain] Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through the description and spoke: “Sequence, can you equip the Title for me?”

Lines of bloody red text began to appear: (Naturally, this Title was the result of you and your companion’s effort having been recognized by the Samsara, so the Sequence will not need to expend any power for it)

“Equip it” Gu Qing Shan said.

[Equipped] the Sequence replied.

“I want to choose the frozen corpse and temporarily gain his power: (Sowing Silence]”

—–when Shroud first appeared, because he was flying in mid-air, he had explained to Gu Qing Shan how this Apocalyptic power worked. This is the most powerful ability I can obtain for now.

Lines of bloody red text quickly appeared:

(Your choice has been confirmed!]

[Attention, ‘Sowing Silence’ is the power of a high-level Apocalypse, as you’ve temporarily been reinforced by it, you will suffer unparalleled torturous pain]

Pffft——-

A layer of blood mist erupted from Gu Qing Shan’s body and drifted in the air.

Some bloody tears began to leak from his eyes. [ What happened to you? įthe skeleton asked in shock.

Gu Qing Shan simply wiped the tears away and replied: “I’m fine, it just hurts a little bit”

Suddenly, lines of text began to appear continuously in the void of space:

[Attention, you’ve temporarily gained the power of a high-level Apocalypse]

(You possess the power of the Palace of Fear Apocalypse, which has manifested as ‘Lord of Horror(elementary)’] [If you fuse ‘Sowing Silence’ and ‘Lord of Horror(elementary)’, your Apocalyptic powers will undergo a great change]

(Would you like to fuse these Apocalyptic powers?)

Gu Qing Shan resolutely said: “Fuse them!”

In an instant, his body began to radiate a thick dark glow that seemed to be crackling in thunder.

A pair of black horns grew from the top of his head, his eyes became crimson red, and a large vertical iris manifested behind him.

[...Fusion complete]

(You’ve temporarily become the Ruler of Horror]

[Among the Apocalypse Sequences, you are the master of fear, to whom all things and all living beings can only kneel, moan, beg, and be destroyed]
