Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1705 – The final beginning

Translator: La0o9

As soon as the destructive presence erupted from Gu Qing Shan’s body, Laura and Su Xue Er recognized what it was.

Laura exclaimed: “Gu Qing Shan, how are you—-“

Gu Qing Shan gazed into the void, as if observing something, then finally turned towards her and smiled.

[That’s right, I didn’t expect it either] he said.

Laura was surprised, but still stepped forward and grabbed his hand, telling him: “Regardless of what’s going on——“

She took a swift glance towards Su Xue Er before continuing: “You are still an official of my Bramble Bird Kingdom, so this empress will stand by your side, understand?”

Gu Qing Shan sincerely told her: “I understand, your majesty”

Su Xue Er was already stunned a while ago.

[Qing Shan, how could you have this Apocalyptic… power?] she asked in confusion.

Gu Qing Shan turned his gaze to the void of space.

Lines of bright red text appeared in front of his eyes:

[In five minutes, the Apocalypse Sequences will finish rallying]

[The door-breaking operation is about to begin]

[As the Highest Apocalypse Sequence, you can choose to command this destruction operation, or work as you see fit]

[If you want to save living beings like the Book of the Sea had suggested, please begin as soon as possible]

Gu Qing Shan sighed and let go of the Earth sword to take Su Xue Er’s hand.

[Su Xue Er, the current situation is very urgent, let me deal with what’s at hand first, then I’ll slowly explain it to you later, ok?]

Su Xue Er nodded.

Gu Qing Shan’s expression became stern and turned to the void of space: [Is there a way to connect to all living beings within this void?]

A line of text appeared on his UI: [This order of business has already been completed by various Low Sequences, so the mean of connection will be: take control of the Low Sequences]

[You will need the permission of the Low Sequences’ spirits]

[So we can’t do this without their permission?] Gu Qing Shan asked.

[That isn’t the case, mandatory implementation is possible but will cost more energy——- the UI’s stockpiled energy is limited, so it’s best to not waste any energy if possible] the UI replied.

Gu Qing Shan’s expression became stiff and asked: [How much energy do we have?]

The UI replied: [Counting from your regression, all stockpiled energy is enough for the Highest Sequence to operate for seven seconds]

——seven seconds.

Gu Qing Shan pondered and asked: [Will seven seconds be enough to defeat the Heavenly Emperor’s clone?]

[You’ve never utilized the power of Apocalypse, so you do not understand the intricacies involved and will most likely require five seconds] the UI answered.

[That’s not enough time] Gu Qing Shan resolutely said: [Change of plans, as soon as we come into contact with the Heavenly Emperor’s clone, we’re not going to fight and simply go through the Gate]

[Then you will require two seconds] the UI answered.

[How many seconds will be necessary to connect and bring all living beings away?] Gu Qing Shan asked.

[Sleep-mode transportation will require the least amount of energy and time, two seconds will be enough]

[What about opening the Gate?]

[One second]

[Then that will only require five seconds, the remaining two seconds—— even if we catch up, the Samsara Clash for Supremacy has already begun, how should we enter?] Gu Qing Shan asked.

[The best method is forceful entry, which is the main method of entry for most Apocalypse Sequences]

[Are there any others?]

[Sneak through, you’ve used it once] the UI curtly answered.

Gu Qing Shan was surprised.

When I regressed back to the last year of the cultivation world’s Peace era, I also used the sneak through method.

[Even if I use forceful entry, I will only have two seconds. That’s not enough to find Shifu, never mind saving her—– we’re sneaking through] Gu Qing Shan said.

[The strategy has been determined——- once you’ve made all necessary preparations, I will provide the corresponding descriptions. Your Apocalyptic powers will then be thoroughly triggered and persist for seven seconds, you must complete everything within these seven seconds] the UI told him.

Gu Qing Shan nodded, then began to sing: [Happy birthday——-]

He stopped singing after only half a sentence.

——-the [Songster of Night]’s unique ability has been triggered!

Numerous powerful presences could be felt all over the void of space as if somebody was rapidly approaching.

A few moments later.

A gloomy figure descended and slowly turned into a humanoid figure.

His facial features were covered under a black cloak.

His entire body was full of scales, only a pair of golden vertical irises was visible.

「 Youngster, why did you stop with only four syllables?] the Thousand Dragons Ancestor complained.

[I’m sorry, but the situation is very urgent] Gu Qing Shan replied.

The void opened up again.

Within a sea of drifting sand, a mature lady silently appeared, smiled to Gu Qing Shan, then spoke up:

“Gu Qing Shan is correct, the current situation is a very dangerous one. The Apocalypse Sequences are about to break through the Reality Gate”

[I found another Reality Gate and the key, but in order to lead everyone away, I need everyone to open their Orders for me to temporarily take over them] Gu Qing Shan said.

Another voice called out: “Really? You found a key?”

A young girl wielding a large hammer descended from the sky and asked with smiling eyes.

[Yes, I even found a safe Reality Gate to head through] Gu Qing Shan answered.

Someone said: [I trust you]

A woman in black clothing appeared.

Lady Darksea.

She slightly bowed towards Gu Qing Shan.

In the sky, grey figures appeared one by one, landing around Gu Qing Shan.

A rock-man with a mohawk.

A dual-blade wielding old man whose entire body was covered in black fog.

An eight-armed giant.

More and more were still arriving.

The Awaitings.

All the Awaitings have arrived!

Glancing at them, Gu Qing Shan noticed that the presence they gave off seemed to have increased.

—–this time, it wasn’t a fake presence, but rather an actual change in power.

Gu Qing Shan felt a bit regretful.

There wasn’t enough time.

While these Combatants who had fought countless times against true Apocalypses had used all of their strength to imitate a few Low Sequence Apocalypses, they themselves couldn’t recover their peak strength in time.

Gu Qing Shan clapped his hand.

The Key of the Wind instantly appeared in the void, giving off a dark green glow.

[The Reality Gate is about to be broken open, but I found the Key of the Wind—— it has made a deal with me to open the Gate for everyone to escape, but I will need your Orders in order to bring everyone who had ever formed a connection with the Orders with me] Gu Qing Shan explained.

Seeing this key, everyone’s expression changed.

“So there really was a true Saint Pillar Soul Artifact here” someone sighed.

Lady Fusi commented: “Indeed, this is the real Wind Saint Pillar, a Saint Pillar Soul Artifact that cannot be impersonated”

The Thousand Dragons Ancestor loudly called out: 「 Then what are we waiting for? Gu Qing Shan is a member of the dragon race—— without him, we would have already been dead at the Apocalypses’ hands before we even woke up 」

Everyone’s expressions became relaxed.

「 And here I was ready to fight to my death 」the dual-blade old man commented.

“Right, I didn’t expect for there to still be a way to survive” the rock-man said.

「 Then what are we waiting for? 」the eight-armed giant said.

Everyone turned to a certain part of the void and temporarily stopped talking.

Gu Qing Shan was suddenly surprised.

In front of his eyes, lines of bloody glowing text quickly appeared:

[All Low Sequences are requesting connection]

[Will you grant them access?]

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Do it”

[As ordered, currently connecting to Worlds Apocalypse Online: Human Regiment]

[Currently connecting Worlds Apocalypse Online: Dragon race]

[Currently connecting Worlds Apocalypse Online: Time Guardian]

[Currently connecting Worlds Apocalypse Online: Night Watcher]

[Currently connecting Worlds Apocalypse Online: Anti-demon Order]

[…]

Numerous lines of bloody text rapidly scrolled through before concluding:

[All Low Sequences have been accepted]

[Initiating examination of living beings]

Numerous images flashed through Gu Qing Shan’s eyes.

He could see countless living beings going about their everyday life within the infinite worlds.

Some he was familiar with, some he didn’t recognize at all, even Shroud had reinforced [Human Regiment] and was part of the [Order] connections.

「 However, after connecting to all of us, how do you intend on taking all living beings with you? 」the Thousand Dragons Ancestor asked.

Gu Qing Shan replied: [It’s a secret—– you’ll understand when you see it]

The Thousand Dragons Ancestor glared at him.

Gu Qing Shan pulled his gaze back and reached his hand to respectively grab Su Xue Er and Laura.

[Xue Er, Laura, each of you choose a Sequence and reinforce it temporarily]

After the two girls were done with this, Gu Qing Shan turned to the void of space and said:

[I’ve made the necessary preparations, please provide the corresponding descriptions]

Following his request, lines of bloody text started appearing in the void of space:

[Selected established strategy]

[Selected method of transport: Sleep-mode]

[Selected invasion method: Sneak through]

[Special note:]

[The Samsara is the ultimate weapon of living beings, it can continuously evolve. Once its evolution is complete, the method of power allocation is:]

[…]

[…]

[Attention: The power of the Highest Sequence can only persist for seven seconds, after which it will fall into slumber due to power exhaustion]

[As you state ‘begin’, everything will initiate]

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes and stayed silent briefly, thinking through the entire process once again.

Su Xue Er and Laura stood in front of him.

The Awaitings were standing around him.

Everyone had their attention focused on him.

A few moments later.

Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes and said: [Begin]

Instantly, his entire body started to exude scorching light that manifested into exactly one hundred million rays of light.

Countless voices became overlapped as they muttered with him:

[I am death, the end of time, the beginning of destruction, the desolation and cessation of all, the manifestation of the ultimate eradication]

Fwoom!!!!!!!

The void and all things within it simply vanished without a trace.

The bloody UI in the void of space also disappeared.

At the same time, the entire Space Vortex began to undergo unprecedented change.

The frozen corpse vanished.

The Awaitings were nowhere to be seen.

Su Xue Er and Laura were also gone without a trace.

In the Temporal Oasis, Anna, Zhang Ying Hao, Ye Fei Li, Barry, and Kitty, as well as everyone else also vanished.

All living beings who had reinforced an [Order] vanished without a trace.

Everything became absolutely quiet.

In the darkness, a flash of light began to spread and illuminate the infinite worlds and Boundless Void, putting everything within its encompass.

That light broke through Space-Time and all things, instantly vanishing only to appear again at the bottom of the Eternal Abyss.

At the bottom of the Eternal Abyss, the indiscernibly gigantic Heavenly Emperor’s clone instantly sensed this.

A pair of cold and cruel eyes opened.

「 Who—— is——- 」

The voice echoed throughout the entire void.

——————

Author’s note:

Some words at the end of the volume.

The Abyss Volume has come to an end.

A lot of things have been written and revealed in this volume.

I have to admit, this is a very large story with many characters and convoluted course of events, the numerous different kinds of power is prone to cause even more confusion, and the story of many people occur outside of the main storyline——-

But I have to stick close to the main storyline without going too much off the rail.

This couldn’t be helped, because any character who could enter the story at this point in time wouldn’t be a nameless small-fry.

While I’m nothing but a part-time writer, I can only follow Gu Qing Shan’s story.

In this volume.

Power has gone from [Order] and [Chaos] to ‘Type’, then to ‘Realm’;

Characters have included humans, pixies, dragons, giants, monsters, Apocalypses, spirits, as well as unknown entities;

The worlds range from broken to systematic, from the Samsara to the Dusty World, even introducing ‘Phase Realms’;

Time has ranged from the present to the past all the way to the Age of Immemorial, as well as Su Xue Er who had arrived from the future;

Named characters who had taken the stage are even more dazzling.

——in truth, I also feel like I’ve written too big of a story, but I can only continue writing since this was how the world was established to be.

Fortunately.

Such a huge and chaotic volume is coming to an end.

After sighing in relief, I thought about it for a long time and finally decided to slow down a bit.

Part of this is because I need time to think about the next volume, the other reason was […], I can only say that I hope everything will get better soon.

For the upcoming chapters of this story, it’s going to be this way——-

It will be very simple for me to write it quickly, and it’ll be very easy for me to earn money this way, but I’m limited by my personal abilities, and focusing on nothing but speed will make this book gradually become mundane.

This novel already has over 4 million words (Chinese), so I hope that it’ll be able to shine on its own, and one day in the future when I finally look back at it, there won’t be too many mistakes.

I will do my best.

I hope that the next volume will also be a beautiful and moving story that I can dedicate to my readers.

—–next volume, Apocalypse Volume.
