Worlds’ Apocalypse Online - Chapter 1326

A female voice hurriedly called out:

“Wait——-”

As soon as s/he said that, the boy had been pulled by the chain into the void of space, vanishing without a trace.

Crow froze.

“shit! Why did things turn out like this!!!”

S/he[1] cursed in anger.

——-but his voice was now chiming clear, carrying with it a slightly provocative tone that roused a person’s heart, not a single bit of anger could be heard from it. [2]

Gu Qing Shan quickly said: “Calm down, this is only a temporary adjustment from the Laws of the world, perhaps by the time we leave this world and return to our own, the changes will disappear”

“No! This one isn’t going to take this lying down; I’m going to fight this new world for doing this to me! Hmph!”

Crow angrily shouted.

Gu Qing Shan paused.

If you’re going to fight, just say that; the hell was that ‘hmph’ for?

—-you’ve actually begun getting used to your role, haven’t you?

Crow drew his rapier and lightly swung it a few times.

“Good, at least my strength is still the same”

S/he sighed in relief.

Gu Qing Shan still wanted to say something, but then noticed another line of glowing text on his UI:

[Your continuous offering of origin power of the soul had received praise from the new world]

[Following this, the Laws of the world will continue to adjust your appearance to allow your smooth transition into the new world]

[Second adjusted: Yu Juan]

Skimming through his, Gu Qing Shan’s gaze turned to Yu Juan.

Compared to Crow, Yu Juan’s transformation was considerably more noticeable.

With a loud ‘poof’, Yu Juan was covered in white fog.

After the fog scattered, a yellowish-brown duck plushie appeared on the ground.

“NO!”

The duck plushie held his face with his wings, crying out in despair.

“Why did I become a plushie!?”

Crow looked at the duck on the ground, then back at himself, remaining silent.

Rather than being turned into a plushie, it’s much better to be turned into a woman.

At least, I’m a human woman.

“Ahaha, how cute you are, Yu Juan”

S/he crouched down, laughing at his misery.

Gu Qing Shan’s expression remained stern as he replied: “I assume that it’s because you hold too much knowledge, which could greatly affect the direction of the new world. To remove this possibility, the Laws of the world turned you into a plushie, which greatly limits what you can do”

The duck plushie trembled a bit, then suddenly clenched his wing into a fist, hitting it against his other wing, and angrily shouted: “You are right, it is because I’m too much of a scholar, it is afraid that I can change the world!”

He howled sorrowfully: “The truth will always be held by the few, and the fate of the few is always full of complications and hardship. O’ fate, must you test me this way?”

Crow and Gu Qing Shan exchanged glances.

“These are lines from a musical” Crow blinked at Gu Qing Shan and sent his voice.

Gu Qing Shan was speechless.

Suddenly, both the woman and the duck plushie turned towards him.

“”Why haven’t you been changed!?”” both of them asked in unison.

Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to reply, new lines of glowing text appeared on the War supreme-ruler UI:

[The world fusion is about to be complete]

[As you have continuously offered origin power of the soul to the new world, the new spirit of the world is about to manifest and communicate with you]

[Please make sure to talk carefully]

[It’s here!]

Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt the woman, the duck plushie, and the entire teleport tower disappearing from his vision.

The world became dark.

Suddenly.

From the darkness, a vast sea of stars began to manifest.

These stars were scattered all over the sky, all of them giving off a profound indigo hue that illuminated Gu Qing Shan’s body.

A notification appeared on the War supreme-ruler UI:

[The other party is currently searching for your Titles recognized by the Laws of Reality; you may choose to hide some Titles or reject this process entirely]

Gu Qing Shan immediately answered: “No need to hide, let it see. Mutual understanding is the first step in resolving a misunderstanding”

[Understood]

A few moments later.

The indigo hue of the light turned gentle.

A vast and solemn voice resounded from the stars:

「 Adept Dragon Slayer, Heir of the Thousand Dragons Ancestor, Huang Quan Devil King, Wielder of Heaven and Earth, Ally of the Eternal Abyss, Lord of the Samsara Mountain, Blessed of the Past Worlds, Inheritor of Ethereal, Cherub of Condemnation——- 」

「 We welcome your presence, but we absolutely cannot trust you 」

“Why can’t you trust me? And who are you?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The vast sea of stars descended from above, circling around Gu Qing Shan.

「 Among the worlds of our parallel reality, the greatest and most prosperous world is called the Saint Spirit World. It is our homeland, and we are its Deities 」

「 Countless years ago, the Wraith realm came into contact with us, using 70 million years to earn our trust, followed by a plan that lasted 1500 years to ultimately push us off the brink of destruction 」

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Why did you do such a thing?”

「 Because our world was too powerful, and because only our destruction would be able to become the chain link for Fate Corrosion, capable of destroying our surrounding worlds and everything in another parallel reality—– the wraiths needed this terrifying power to help them achieve a certain goal 」

Gu Qing Shan finally understood.

He deeply sighed.

The Wraith realm spent so much effort and time with nothing but the ultimate goal of fighting the Eternal Abyss.

The Eternal Abyss had certainly lost the war, but it awoke during the final moments.

The awakened Eternal Abyss wasn’t something that the wraiths could handle.

Then, wouldn’t their plan turn into nothing but a joke?

…Wait a minute.

If the wraiths had spent so much effort, time, and paid such a huge price, wouldn’t they have already thought of this?

Gu Qing Shan felt his heart freezing over.

No.

They surely must have thought of this.

While he was thinking, the vast sea of stars spoke up again:

「 From the Titles you’ve accrued, the actions you’ve taken are completely unrelated to the Wraith realm 」

“They are my enemies” Gu Qing Shan replied.

「 We have also drawn the same conclusion. But after the Wraith realm’s ploy and our destruction, we cannot easily trust anybody, you can surely empathize with us 」

“I understand” Gu Qing Shan replied.

「 No, you do not understand, but you shall, soon enough 」

Gu Qing Shan froze.

The voice continued: 「 During the very last moment of our world’s destruction, we discovered the final opportunity 」

“What opportunity?”

「 We fused together with the extinct monster world and the Plague Apocalypse world. This action carried the same significance of fusing three parallel worlds together, this type of fusion allowed the three dying Realities to exert the last of its power 」

「 By borrowing this power and the sacrifice of us Deities’ lives, we achieved a certain feat—– 」

「 To reverse Space and Time, returning the Saint Spirit World to the moment at which it was strongest」

「 Everything will be reset 」

「 The humans of the Wraith realm shall once again appear as they did in history 」

「 However, it wouldn’t be them alone, as the process of the worlds’ fusion continued, the Plague Apocalypse and the monsters shall also slowly descend 」

“Wait a minute!” Gu Qing Shan called out with a heavy voice: “You sacrificed your lives; does that mean you’re already about to die”

「 We would cease to be Deities, instead, we would become the numerous Laws of this world, paying continuous attention to everything that occurs 」

「 ——stranger, help our world 」

「 If you are able to do so, we shall bestow you a generous gift 」

「 Perhaps after everything is over, we shall even stand on your side, seeking out the Wraith realm for revenge 」

Gu Qing Shan pondered: “The wraith realm’s plans are still proceeding without being hindered, if we use too much time, the Wraith realm will have only become even more powerful before we realize it”

「 Do not worry, through the fusion of three parallel worlds, the new world’s time flow is completely different from your world’s flow of time 」

The voice slowly faded.

The sea of stars returned to the sky, remaining silent.

In front of Gu Qing Shan’s eyes, a few lines of glowing text quickly appeared:

[The new world spirit had fully manifested]

[Time will begin to flow backwards]

[Everything that happened in history shall occur once more, the only difference being that aside from the wraiths, there would also be extinct monsters and the monsters of the Plague Apocalypse slowly descending on this world]

[The new world spirit is currently adjusting your appearance to facilitate your smooth transition into the new world]

[Third adjusted: Gu Qing Shan]

Gu Qing Shan immediately noticed his change.

His Fear Friend body was slowly fading away, returning him to human form.

He had regained his original appearance.

Compared to being an evil creature, his human form was naturally more suitable to survive in the Saint Spirit World.

—–and that wasn’t all.

Gu Qing Shan slowly became shorter, his physique also slimming down while his face gained a bit of immaturity.

Crow and plushie both looked at him.

“Fiend, not only did you turn into a human young man, but you’re also handsome, how unfair” the yellow duck Yu Juan complained angrily.

Gu Qing Shan touched his face.

——I grew up like this, what can your complaints do?

The woman stood next to him, his arms crossed: “Looks around 15 years old, how innocent, tsk tsk”

Gu Qing Shan suddenly noticed something and rolled up his left sleeve.

Right above his left wrist, an indigo round dot had silently appeared.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War supreme-ruler UI:

[Proof of the world]

[This is the identity bestowed upon you by the world spirit, it shall record your actions and mobilize the world’s power for you to use]

[Please obtain a pattern to prove your stance]

[If you succeed, the world shall slowly accept you]

Under Gu Qing Shan’s scrutinizing gaze, that indigo spot slowly manifested into the pattern of a sword that was about the size of a finger.

“Huh? Where did that tattoo come from?” Crow asked.

Gu Qing Shan touched the sword-shaped pattern with his hand.

“This is probably the key to our survival”

He cautiously replied.
