Worlds’ Apocalypse Online - Chapter 839

Chapter 839: Insane Advancement!

The Primordial Heaven Realm.

A screen of light showed up.

Gu Qing Shan appeared.

He turned up on top of a mountain without any people.

Gu Qing Shan casually sent out a flame talisman to notify the others and began to think about everything that happened earlier.

The Abyssal Fate Weaver is slowly devouring the Primordial Wraith Realm.

The Demon Dragon doesn’t want to be bound by the orders of a human, and he didn’t seem like he had any intention of saving the humans in the Primordial Heaven Realm.

From its conversation with the Abyssal Fate Weaver and how it kept that black finger, it is fully intent on obtaining the power of the Abyss from the Abyssal Fate Weaver.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly recalled something he heard.

…

“He who wrestles against the evil dragon would ultimately become the evil dragon himself, and he who associates himself with the abyss would one day become part of the Abyss”

…

This was something the Earth sword told me before, but I ignored it.

Then it was repeated by the [Demon King Order].

And from how the Demon Dragon is acting, I suspect it was only a matter of time before it becomes an Abyssal dragon.

Then what about me?

Gu Qing Shan silently asked himself.

If I don’t do anything.

The Earth sword will die, and nothing will change.

With that in mind, he was no longer hesitant.

“I’m not even wrestling against the evil dragon, I’m just talking to it”

Gu Qing Shan told himself.

A few streaks of light came from afar and quickly arrived in front of him.

The supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill.

The figure of light.

Luo Bing Li.

「 How is the progress? 」the figure of light asked before anyone else.

“Quite decent, the [Order] is evolving” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The figure of light sensed him briefly before nodding in satisfaction: 「 It is true, this speed of evolution is certainly quite impressive. I’m a bit more convinced now 」

“What should we do now? I’ve already finished creating the jade disk” Luo Bing Li asked.

“We won’t go to humanity’s prepared route yet, we need to quickly leave this phantom image first. I’ll tell you the reason later” Gu Qing Shan answered.

The figure of light glanced at the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill.

“There is surely a reason why he’s insisting on this, we should listen to him” the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill answered.

“In the worst-case scenario, we can just return here later” Gu Qing Shan looked at the figure of light and told him.

「 Is any phantom image ok? 」the figure of light asked.

Gu Qing Shan glanced at Luo Bing Li.

“You don’t have to worry about me, I have a secret technique that will make sure I won’t be replaced by another ‘me’” Luo Bing Li sent her voice to him.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit relieved.

So Luo Bing Li had a secret technique that allowed her to be unaffected by the Law of Time!

In truth, the thing Gu Qing Shan was most concerned with was the same two people showing up in the same timeline.

If that happened, the Law of Time might immediately erase one of them to make sure that the Space-time remained stable.

Since Luo Bing Li already had this ability, the only one he needed to be concerned about was the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill.

“Can you teach it? I want to make it seem like the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill can use it as well” Gu Qing Shan sent his voice.

Luo Bing Li spoke seriously: “I can’t. This technique can only be used by myself. A single timeline can only endure the existence of two duplicates of one person, a second person is impossible”

Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to give up.

The supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill that Shannu and I impersonated as was fake. If we happened to run into the real supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill yet nothing happens to both of them, that would cause the figure of light to feel suspicious.

Then…

“No, not just any phantom image” Gu Qing Shan answered the figure of light, “we need to travel to a phantom image after humanity’s second great war.

During the second great war, the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill was dead and the Strength supreme-ruler had taken over.

This was the future that the ‘supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill’ heard from the Golden Flame Divinity and awoke to be his current self.

「 Why is that? 」the figure of light asked.

“In that timeline, the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill was already dead, so we won’t run into the situation where one of the two supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill run into each other and one of them get erased”

“Furthermore, if I remember correctly, the one who took over the position of Divine King next was the Strength supreme-ruler He was a bit weaker than the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill, so if we happened to be unable to convince him, we can directly use force”

“And finally, if the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill were to be reborn and appear in front of the Divinities, that would be the most convincing clue of our identity”

The figure of light silently listened and turned to the Divine King: 「 Your Divine Majesty, what do you think? 」

Shannu appeared to be seriously contemplating his words, then sighed and spoke emotionally: “This King doesn’t have anything to add, this certainly is the best arrangement. Furthermore, I am truly regretful that Gu Qing Shan isn’t a member of our Divine race”

The figure of light nodded and expressed his agreement.

「 Then let us go 」

He took out a coin and tossed it up high.

The coin spun several times in the air before suddenly shattering and turning into tiny sparks of light that covered this entire area.

Gu Qing Shan, the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill, Luo Bing Li, and the figure of light all vanished from this world.

Time slowly passed.

About half a day later.

The void of space opened.

A masculine man with a pair of sharp black horns on his head slowly walked out from the void of space.

「 How uneasy 」

He glanced around with an extremely somber expression.

「 There is no human defense system here to protect their adolescent children, I can catch that guy and question him as much as I wish 」

「 The only thing I need to worry about is that my body is still asleep, while the Soul Shrieker’s abilities counters my soul form. I need to be careful not to attract its attention 」

The Demon Dragon’s soul began to search the Primordial Heaven Realm.

…

The fog of space-time.

Countless phantom image fragments of parallel worlds silently floated.

Four figures directly fell into one of these phantom image fragments.

The Primordial Heaven Realm.

A barren hill.

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Which time period are we in exactly?”

The figure of light closed his eyes briefly to check and replied: 「 We are currently in the time period immediately after the second great war was over. The Strength supreme-ruler had just been coronated as the new Divine King 」

Shannu cleared her throat and spoke in a dignified manner: “Let us go and meet them, we will need the aid of the entire Divine race in this era”

「 Certainly, let’s go 」the figure of light replied.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly waved his hand and signaled everyone to stop for a moment.

“Wait a minute, the [Order] is attaching itself to me again”

Hearing that, everyone waited in place.

In front of Gu Qing Shan’s vision, a blood-red UI slowly appeared.

Blood-red text began to scroll across the screen.

[Evolution complete]

[Worlds Apocalypse Online: Origin has been officially launched]

These blood-red texts stopped for a moment before they changed into a new text.

[I am glad to see that Your Excellency is ok. It seems Your Excellency had listened to my advice and didn’t enter the place that led into the Abyss]

Gu Qing Shan replied without changing his expression: “If I said that I wouldn’t go, I would naturally not go. But that might change in the future”

“Also, you’ve evolved to become [Origin], do you have any new functions?”

Lines of blood-red text quickly appeared on the UI to answer him.

[Displaying all post-evolution changes for Your Excellency:]

[In accordance to His Excellency the Envoy of Condemnation’s will, the Order will once again readjust Origin’s functions]

[Please select the appropriate mode]

[Choice 1: Normal mode, under this mode, the Order shall gradually unlock each function and integrate them into the Card center to finally form a simple Card function platform]

[Choice 2: Advancement mode, under this mode, the Order shall proceed with evolution as the main goal, only after evolving to Revolution will it unlock a crucial function for Your Excellency]

Gu Qing Shan asked: “Naturally I’ll choose the second choice, but what is the crucial function you mentioned?”

[Origin] answered him: [In its Revolution stage, the Order will search the Worlds Apocalypse Online general junkyard for various ancient corpses and stitch them together to form bio-weapons of war, the Demon Lords: Primary-level Summoned Weapon form]

[Your Excellency, I can turn the primary Demon Lords that can be exchanged into Cards to make it convenient for you to exchange for yourself]

Gu Qing Shan nodded and fell into thought.

Primary-level summoned weapon.

So all of those Demon Lords were only the most basic summoned weapons.

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze fell onto the [Origin] UI.

The progress bar that represented his Soul Points was still completely full with a number behind it:

[Soul Points value: 9.71 million]

After killing so many powerful demonic sea creatures, my Soul Points value has finally reached a point where I can use them as I pleased.

“[Origin], I still have so much Soul Points, can you evolve right away?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

[By principle, a Quest must be completed before I can activate the corresponding evolution protocols] [Origin] answered him.

“Then what are you waiting for, issue the Quest”

[Preparing Quest]

Sha

A new Quest notification appeared on the blood-red UI.

[Quest name: Advance, young man!]

[Quest description: This is a period of insane advancement for the sake of becoming the Demon King, a carrier of the Order who is too weak would not be able to control the various bio-weapons. You must continue to improve yourself to prove your potential to become the Demon King]

[Quest objective: Become a Three Thousand Worlds realm cultivator]

[Quest reward: Immediate activation of the Order evolution protocols]

After reading through this Gu Qing Shan chuckled: “Here I am wishing that you can evolve as soon as possible, yet you also desire me to quickly become stronger”

[Naturally, Your Excellency, you must quickly become stronger, otherwise, there is a chance for those bio-weapons to betray you], [Origin] answered him.

“If I remember correctly, I can use Soul Points to advance now?”

[Indeed]

Gu Qing Shan glanced at his overflowing Soul Points bar.

He looked back at the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill, the figure of light and Luo Bing Li: “I’m afraid everyone will have to wait a bit longer, the [Order] needs me to quickly breakthrough and use that to activate its evolution protocols”

“This is a serious matter, you may begin now, we will help protect you in the meantime” the supreme-ruler of Frost and Chill spoke up first.

The figure of light also agreed: 「 Indeed, the power of the [Demon King Order] is necessary for the three coins, you must make sure to do this well 」

“Then I’ll begin now” Gu Qing Shan replied.

Luo Bing Li glanced at him and slightly nodded.

The three of them scattered in different directions to give Gu Qing Shan some space.

Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to see that each of them had taken a position to secure his safety.

Without waiting for any longer, he told the [Origin] UI:

“Breakthrough”

A line of blood-red text appeared on the [Origin] UI.

[You have chosen to break through]

The long progress bar under the Lapis Card [Sword cultivator Gu Qing Shan] began to burn up.

Lines of blood-red text appear one after another.

[Consumed 700,000 Soul Points]

[You are about to break through]

[Attention please, as you are a cultivator, this time you will have to face the Water and Fire Double Tribulation]

[After the countdown, your Tribulation shall begin]

[5]

[4]

[3]

[2]

[1!]

All the text on the blood-red UI disappeared.

Strands of flame appeared from the void of space and caught onto Gu Qing Shan’s body.

The Fire Tribulation has descended.
