Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1278 - The real situation

Chapter 1278: The real situation

“It’s coming!”

“It’s coming!”

“Run——-”

Noises rang out all around.

At the end of the Tomb River, an illusory ferocious shadow drifted like fog as it quickly approached them.

The Wraith’s corpse followed the flow of the river, slowly moving ahead to meet the Apocalypse.

The monsters stood on top of the corpse, divided into two sides. One side stood around Gu Qing Shan, while the other side had only 6 people, cautiously standing at a distance.

On Gu Qing Shan’s side, one of the monsters carefully asked: “Your grace, sir Shaman, shouldn’t we be taking evasive actions?”

Gu Qing Shan lightly smirked, then asked in return: “Have you ever seen this Apocalypse before?”

The monster shook its head, answering him: “There was only a single Apocalypse in the inheritance place I slipped into, so I’ve never seen this Apocalypse before”

It then turned around and shouted: “Which one of you released this Apocalypse illusion when you escaped?”

The monsters all shook their heads, expressing that it wasn’t them.

Even the monsters on the other side seemed clueless about it.

Gu Qing Shan was silently shocked.

Just now, that monster said ‘released’.

Then, all the monsters tried recalling the Apocalypse illusion that they had released.

In other words——–

The monsters were all trapped inside an inheritance site, and if they wanted to escape from there, they first needed to switch their bodies with a human from the Tomb of Myriad Beasts, then release the Apocalypse illusion as well.

What a crowd of garbage!

At this point, a small hand reached out, silently squeezing Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

Gu Qing Shan tilted his head to look.

It was Shan Hai Qi Xia.

She was holding Gu Qing Shan’s hand very tightly, seemingly worried.

“I discovered a certain rule” she silently sent her voice.

“What is it?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“When I used the Illusory Noise Bell to track the previous Apocalypse illusion, as well as this upcoming Apocalypse illusion, I found that they weren’t actually trying to actively meet us, but were simply moving against the flow of the river to enter the Tomb of Myriad Beasts”

“You mean, the Apocalypse illusion we ran into before had already entered the Tomb of Myriad Beasts?” Gu Qing Shan asked further.

Shan Hai Qi Xia replied: “That’s right, it’s currently moving through the cavern to head towards the Northern Mountain Grotto of the 8 Grottos”

The corners of her eyes became reddened as she continued: “That previous Apocalypse was one that we’ve never witnessed before, many of them would surely lose their lives within it”

Gu Qing Shan could only console her: “Don’t think too much about it, it was still only an illusion, quite a far cry from a true Apocalypse”

——this has made things clear.

It turns out that the Apocalypses within the Tomb of Myriad Beasts descended upon it through this method.

——the ancient guardians released the Apocalypse illusions to take over the bodies of humans from the Tomb of Myriad Beasts.

Originally.

Originally, they could have come up with much better ways to survive, but they chose the cruelest and vilest method of all.

Unfortunately, these monsters are too powerful.

With my estimations, even if I suddenly attacked with all my strength, I’d only be able to eliminate one of them right away, then the others would surely retaliate.

Damn it!

They took the Samsara’s inheritance for themselves, released the Apocalypses, but they are also too powerful to arbitrarily get rid of!

Holding back his killing intent, Gu Qing Shan’s expression remained calm as he spoke: “Just wait a moment, this Apocalypse illusion won’t be troubling us”

As soon as he did.

The ferocious shadow of the Apocalypse abruptly vanished——-

It had descended upon the Wraith’s back!

They all felt nothing but a chill run down their entire bodies before this sensation disappeared.

The Apocalypse shadow could no longer be seen.

But neither was the group that opposed Gu Qing Shan.

“Your grace, Shaman——-” the monster screamed out in fear.

“Hm, I can see that, since they chose not to follow me, that was their end” Gu Qing Shan calmly replied.

He walked out in front of everyone, staring closely at the fog that covered the Tomb River.

The monsters all become silent.

They quickly recalled how the Shaman once said that he had men inside the Tomb River during his bargaining with the Beast King God.

From how it currently looks, sir Shaman seems to know the path ahead like the back of his hand.

If that’s the case...

The monsters’ gaze landing on Gu Qing Shan’s back now contained both respect and fear.

The Wraith’s corpse continued to slowly drift forward along the Tomb River, slightly bobbing up and down.

While the Apocalypse shadow from earlier had reappeared, silently stood still for a few moments, then started heading towards the direction they came from.

——it would soon enter the Tomb of Myriad Beasts.

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight, observed for a while, then let his mind ponder.

This would be the most complicated situation I’ve been in so far.

The great tomb.

The inheritance.

The Samsara sword.

The ancient tomb guardians.

Apocalypses.

The Wraith realm.

——-and the monsters who allied themselves with the Wraith realm.

This place is intertwined with many different Space-Time, I am even able to meet myself from a parallel world here.

And then right under me——

The Wraith corpse that’s playing dead.

Gu Qing Shan silently sighed.

He had to restrain himself greatly in order not to take out the Devil King Warden Rod and just stab it into the corpse’s back.

Not even the Apocalypses managed to take this corpse into them, so it must hold some sort of secret, obviously not quite as easy to deal with as it seemed.

Gu Qing Shan pondered for a while, then suddenly spoke: “I arrived here the latest, so tell me whatever you’ve learnt. I’ll need to know as much as I can in order to determine our next course of action”

The monster heard him, exchanged glances, but said nothing yet.

Gu Qing Shan paused for a bit, then abruptly grinned

“Or perhaps, you’re all still loyal to the dead Beast King God?”

——his voice was slightly raised, carrying with it pure and visible killing intent.

This is very serious.

The War Shaman is an entity on the same level as the Beast King God, when he becomes angry, who can endure the consequences?

The opposing group earlier was dispatched without sir Shaman even lifting a finger!

The monsters all felt themselves tremble.

Very quickly, a middle-aged man stepped forward.

He was the same person who performed the divination to confirm the Beast King God’s situation earlier.

“Sir Shaman, we were actually trying to locate the fragments of the Delimitation Artifact under the Beast King God’s lead”

“Fragments?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Yes, because of how many Apocalypses had been released within this great tomb, the sword had already broken into many fragments since a long time ago, scattering at various locations of the Tomb River in order to hold it together” the man explained.

“Go on” Gu Qing Shan said.

“The reason why we wanted to find the Delimitation Artifact’s fragments was because, although the Wraith realm human appeared to be studying the Wraith’s corpse with us, they had actually already located the True Samsara Tomb, from which they obtained the sword’s main body” the man said.

Another person chimed in: “When we realized what had happened, they were already searching for the fragments of the sword——- so we figured the more fragments we can collect, the more leverage we’ll have when it’s time to bargain”

Gu Qing Shan’s heart felt heavy.

——-the Wraith realm humans had already obtained this sword?

This one will be tough.

The monsters then continued: “Sir Shaman, you were also one of their targets, as you’ve already taken the strongest inheritance of [Ethereal], it was said that this inheritance is related to some sort of future identity”

After saying so, they all turned to Gu Qing Shan.

The Beast King God originally wanted to steal [Ethereal] as well, but before he managed that, he was already dead.

...Comparatively, the Shaman is much more devious and capable.

Gu Qing Shan’s expression remained completely still without any emotions shown.

A future identity...

He silently thought as he recalled the situation when he killed the Shaman and obtained [Ethereal].

At the time, the War God UI gave the following description:

...

[You are now one of the Samsara Lords of War, qualified to participate in the new age’s Samsara Clash For Supremacy]

[Your inherited fist technique is the identification of your status within the war]

...

—–the Wraith realm was after [Ethereal], so what they truly wanted was the identity and status it entailed!

“Continue”

Gu Qing Shan signaled him.

The other party’s expression suddenly became frantic and said:

“Sir, the Wraith realm humans took the main body of the sword to collect its fragments from all over the tomb, we need to quickly collect as many of them as possible and leave this place”

Gu Qing Shan looked straight at him.

He was also looking straight at Gu Qing Shan—– with a testing gaze.

Gu Qing Shan curtly replied: “So that is what was going on, once the Wraith realm humans take this sword away, the tomb would no longer have an artifact to suppress the Apocalypses, all the Apocalypses would erupt at once, eradicating the Tomb of Myriad Beasts as well as all of its surrounding worlds, am I correct?”

Hearing that, the man lowered his head: “That is indeed the case, sir Shaman, we must quickly take away as much benefit as we can, otherwise, if we remain in the great tomb for too long, once all the Apocalypses erupt, we would all perish without question”
