Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1280: Blessing of the Earth God

The Heaven sword twirled and turned into a beautiful girl.

Luo Bing Li.

She casually told him:

“For a certain unspeakable goal, the Eternal Abyss collected knowledge and wisdom from throughout the void, only discovering the method to forge the twin swords Heaven and Earth after countless long years”

“Based on eight Causality Laws, the Eternal Abyss forged eight different components to aid the twin swords Heaven and Earth in exerting their powers and open the gate of infinite worlds hidden within the countless Laws”

The other eight unique components appeared from the void of space one by one—–

As they appeared, the void of space itself began to warp.

Gu Qing Shan appeared nostalgic.

He was recalling the final moment of his battle during the Age of Old.

Shan Hai Qi Xia had a look of admiration on her face, muttering: “These are the legendary twin swords Heaven and Earth…”

The components continuously circled around Luo Bing Li, quickly pushing the surrounding void around them away to display the overlapping images.

——they were the images of countless parallel worlds.

Luo Bing Li continued: “The Earth sword and I each hold a unique force in our hand, one of destruction, the other of creation. These are the Laws which all things, all living beings, and all worlds must abide by to grow, but as the twin swords Heaven and Earth are both present, destruction and creation simultaneously exist, allowing one to surpass the Laws of this reality to summon the infinite worlds before one’s eyes”

The Earth sword then spoke with a heavy mountainous voice: 「 Gu Qing Shan, have you prepared yourself? 」

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I might not say this about anything else, but when it comes to looking for myself, I’m absolutely confident”

Luo Bing Li continued: “Then we shall—–”

Suddenly, the Wraith artifact spirit spoke up:

「 Wait! 」

The black fog scattered and the sword handle disappeared as the jet-black Wraith once again reappeared in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Its tone was no longer as frantic or urgent as it was before, instead, it was more calm and solemn:

「 Since you are able to display this much, there is no longer a need for me to pretend 」

“No longer in a hurry to flee?” Gu Qing Shan smiled and asked.

The Wraith scoffed: 「 I was one who existed to suppress these Apocalypses, did you really think I’d actually run away? 」

Gu Qing Shan was silent.

—-this scoundrel, so you really were acting earlier.

The Wraith continued: 「 I’ve never thought someone would be able to come so far, but since there is now a ray of hope, I would naturally not simply give up 」

The black fog scattered, turning into an intense current of wind.

Very quickly, a wall of black wind had manifested.

This black wall of wind had enclosed Gu Qing Shan’s vicinity.

Hoh—–

The fog was intensely flickering within the wall as if trying to gather something.

The Wraith spoke again:

「 Gu Qing Shan, you should also know, the great tomb is composed from many warped Space and Time, so now I shall help you buy a bit of time 」

Gu Qing Shan looked into the black wall of wind surrounding him and clasped his fist: “Thank you, but could you explain what you mean?”

The Wraith answered: 「 I will take away a portion of this location’s time, only once you return would I give it back 」

Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then asked: “Then, regardless of how long I leave, not a single second would have passed when I come back, correct?”

「 A bit of time would still have passed, but not much—— do not worry, it would be more than enough for you to find your reinforcements, there would be no need to worry about there not being enough time 」

At this point, the Wraith appeared a bit agitated: 「 How regretful now that my main body had been taken away, my powers are greatly limited, this is the extent of what I can do 」

Gu Qing Shan stayed silent.

Shan Hai Qi Xia blankly muttered: “This is already very powerful, powerful beyond all imagination…”

If it wasn’t that powerful, it wouldn’t have been able to suppress so many Apocalypses.

Gu Qing Shan silently said to himself.

——directly taking time away from a location, what an unimaginable feat that was.

With that to support him, Gu Qing Shan felt even more confident.

“Luo Bing Li, Earth sword, have you prepared yourselves?”

Gu Qing Shan asked.

“We’re prepared, but you need to know something ahead of time” Luo Bing Li silently sent her voice.

“What is it?” Gu Qing Shan sent his voice back.

“The eight components of the Eternal Abyss Soul Artifact originally had the ability to help you bring many items back from the parallel worlds, but now since you’re attempting to have living beings with souls accompany you, this will put a huge stress on the components”

The Earth sword also sent its voice: 「 The Heaven sword and I will naturally be fine, but taking people with you from parallel worlds will damage the eight components considerably 」

“In other words, I will only be able to use this method a single time?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Indeed, once the eight components are damaged beyond repair, it will send those people back to their respective realities” Luo Bing Li replied.

Gu Qing Shan quickly asked: “Are you sure the two of you will be fine?”

The Earth sword replied: 「 Of course 」

Gu Qing Shan sighed and sent his voice: “As long as you two are fine”

At this point, the Wraith was losing its patience.

Its voice could be heard from the black fog:

「 Brat, are you going to look for reinforcement or not? 」

Gu Qing Shan looked at the black wall of wind around him and smiled: “Naturally—— we’re heading off!”

「 “Very well!” 」

Luo Bing Li and the Earth sword both responded.

In an instant, the eight components spun madly, forcing the surrounding void of space to move further away.

More and more parallel world images appeared.

The twin swords Heaven and Earth both spoke up at once: 「 “Right at this moment!” 」

“Coming!”

Gu Qing Shan shouted.

He wielded one sword in each hand and heavily slashed forward.

Two wide sword images manifested.

A certain parallel world image was slashed in half, revealing a passage within.

Gu Qing Shan swiftly moved and jumped in.

As soon as he did, the passage disappeared.

Shan Hai Qi Xia witnessed it all happen, stayed silent for a long while, then sighed: “I’ve never thought such a thing would ever happen”

The Wraith laughter came from the void of space: 「 Young lady, you’re still very young, the void is infinitely vast, there are still so many things that you have yet to witness 」

Shan Hai Qi Xia raised her eyebrows a bit and asked: “You’ve seen someone travel to a parallel world like this once before?”

The Wraith’s laughter instantly stopped.

…

Darkness, deep, boundless.

Suddenly, a man appeared in that darkness.

Gu Qing Shan.

He looked around, only to see the blank space vortex with only an occasional strange object flying through the void wind.

“I forgot something” Gu Qing Shan said.

「 What’s the issue? 」 the Earth sword asked.

“Although we’re not pressed for time, how am I supposed to find myself?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Luo Bing Li’s voice came from the Heaven sword: “Everything about this reality is foreign to you, except a single entity that you’d be able to sense regardless of distance, that would be yourself”

“So, I just need to feel myself?”

Gu Qing Shan said, then closed his eyes.

“How interesting, I found him—– I mean, I found ‘me'”

Gu Qing Shan’s figure slightly moved and flew in a certain direction.

Moving through three Super Dimensional Worlds, he quickly reached the border of the 900 million World Layers.

His homeworld.

After a bit more work, Gu Qing Shan finally found his parallel world self.

“Ah, this won’t do, the timeline in this world is still too early”

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

He formed an invisibility hand seal, then silently stood in the air outside of a campus building.

Through the window, one could see the silence within the classroom.

Every student was focused on their test papers.

Including the teenage Gu Qing Shan——–

He was focused on a Mech Armor analysis test.

“Gongzi, is this ‘you’ while you were younger?” Shannu asked.

“That’s right. Make sure to keep your voice down, this is a very important test. We can’t affect anyone in this place” Gu Qing Shan carefully told her.

“Is this test very important?” Luo Bing Li asked.

“Hm, this is a test related to the future of every single person in this building—— of course, the test results are also important, but what’s more important is the determination and effort each person had put into their chosen paths. Heaven will reward those who are diligent, and one’s effort will not betray them” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“Ah——”

The four swords all uttered an emotional exclamation.

They curiously looked upon the immature young man from outside the window.

Gu Qing Shan said: “I still haven’t gone through anything at this point in time, let’s head to the next parallel world and find another ‘me'”

“Let’s go”

「 Hm, let’s go to the next world 」

Before they left, Gu Qing Shan turned back towards the campus building.

His gaze moved away from his teenage self, then scanned through each of the familiar and unfamiliar faces around.

Each person was trying their best.

As this was their moment to exert their efforts.

Gu Qing Shan smiled and lightly muttered: “This is a fair battle that deserves all of your efforts, I wish you all luck”
