Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

The light of the warp formation flickered continuously.

Two figures suddenly appeared.

One of them wore a black yaksha mask with red stripes depicting a pained expression, while the other wore a colorful mask that depicted a solemn and dignified expression.

The two of them exuded immense pressure simply by standing within the formation.

As the wraiths around noticed them, they all immediately bowed in greetings:

"Greetings Wraith Might Cang, Wraith Might Xue Long!"

The two Wraith Mights swiftly disembark from the formation.

While they were walking forward, Demon Dragon sent his voice: "No one can warp directly into the Wraith Temple, we need to walk through this passage in order to reach the gate of the Wraith Temple------ pay attention, your maidservants have arrived"

Gu Qing Shan gazed forward and saw six slender women with delicate physiques and features arriving to greet them.

"Master" they all lowered themselves to greet him.

Demon Dragon continued sending his voice: "Cang Wu Zhang pays a lot of attention to being showy, so these girls were the most beautiful women chosen from countless worlds, the twelve cultivators behind them are his personal guards"

Gu Qing Shan focused his gaze and sure enough saw twelve cultivators stepping forward to greet him: "Wraith Might, sir"

-----I've only just shown up and there are already so many subordinates as well as other wraith cultivators watching us.

"Demon Dragon, why didn't you tell me about this ahead of time?" Gu Qing Shan sent his voice and asked.

"There really was no time, you should know how urgent things are, I didn't have the time to slowly explain everything to you------ not to mention, how could this little scene even trouble you?" Demon Dragon replied.

Gu Qing Shan truly had nothing left to say.

He recalled Cang Wu Zhang's usual demeanor and loudly laughed to everyone: "Go! Go! Go! I got quite a bit of harvest during my trip this time, brother Xue Long and I need to make a trip to the Wraith Temple first"

Demon Dragon and he both continued walking forward.

Hearing him, the maidservants and guards swiftly stepped aside and followed them from behind.

On the way, some people would occasionally greet them.

Demon Dragon smiled in response to each of them and even clasped his fist in response to some of the greetings.

Gu Qing Shan walked next to him but completely ignored everyone else, only very occasionally would he return a greeting, and even then he only glossed it over.

The two of them soon reached the entrance of the Wraith Temple.

Several wraith guards greeted as they saw them: "Sirs, please let us examine your yaksha masks"

Demon Dragon took off his mask and handed it over.

Gu Qing Shan followed suit.

A wraith guard received the masks and used a scepter to examine them.

Neither of the masks reacted at all.

Another spell scanned through the two of them, which also gave off no reactions.

The wraith guard then nodded and loudly called out: "Open the gates for the two Wraith Mights!"

Eight wraith guards pushed the gates open.

Gu Qing Shan and Demon Dragon entered, while the maidservants and guards were naturally stopped outside the temple.

Inside the Wraith Temple.

Many Wraith Mights, Wraith Generals, as well as 6-winged seraphim were hurriedly flying back and forth as if making some sort of preparation.

This was a critical moment of survival.

------the pressure of the giant eyeball wasn't something that they could underestimate.

"The tall person in red on the right is Wraith Might Lan Jiang. He had always been at odds with Cang Wu Zhang; verbally clashing whenever they meet" Demon Dragon sent his voice.

"If I knew there were so many issues, I would have searched through Cang Wu Zhang's soul before coming to the Wraith Temple" Gu Qing Shan said.

"His soul is protected by a unique measure; it can't be searched" Demon Dragon replied.

Thinking about that, Gu Qing Shan sighed helplessly.

At this point, Wraith Might Lan Jiang had already seen Gu Qing Shan and immediately appeared sarcastic, asking with his arms crossed: "Brother Wu Zhang, in the face of this serious situation, you seem to have decided to chase some butterflies like a mare again?"

The wraiths and angels around all lowered their heads, acting like they didn't hear it.

Demon Dragon sent his voice: "He likes to compare Cang Wu Zhang to various beasts and animals, and you're the same, but he's acting quite a bit overboard today"

Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist and calmly said in return: "Brother Lan Jiang, you------"

He then appeared hesitant.

"Ahaha, Brother Wu Zhang, can't you even refute the fact that you've slacked off this time around?" Wraith Might Lan Jiang laughed out loud.

Gu Qing Shan appeared troubled: "-----brother Lan Jiang, with your moral behaviors, I feel sorry for everything that I try to compare you to, it's really troubling. I think you should just stay a human for this life since you probably won't be one again next time, perhaps you'll become a pot of pork roast or something in Hell, the Hell Spawns would probably like that"

After saying that, he clasped his fist and left.

Wraith Might was completely speechless, unable to say anything in return.

"Where are the three Wraith Lords?" Gu Qing Shan sent his voice to ask.

"Most likely in the secret room, discussing various tactics and countermeasures along with the Grand Empress" Demon Dragon replied.

"As soon as they leave, you, me, and the black dog will each ambush one of them at the same time, that will ensure that none of them will survive" Gu Qing Shan said

Demon Dragon appeared delighted, but then discreetly shook his head: "Not possible, I suspect that they'll continue to remain by the Grand Empress' side"

"In that case, you're saying that we won't be able to kill them for now?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

"I would probably only be able to act during the retreat when everything is in complete chaos" Demon Dragon sighed.

"Are we going to retreat?" Gu Qing Shan pursued the issue.

"I heard that this was the case, the rumors are being spread all over" Demon Dragon replied.

Gu Qing Shan paused.

-----the Wraith Temple should have been their final fortress that needs to be guarded till the very end, and yet someone is spreading the rumor that they're going to retreat somewhere else.

If this was actually the case, their morale would already be shaking.

Who would do such a thing?

Gu Qing Shan thought of a certain answer.

"That's right, were there any treasures within the Wraith Temple? I remember there being a bow called 'Mara Heavenly King'?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

"What? Are you interested in that bow?" Demon Dragon asked.

"I am" Gu Qing Shan replied.

"I suggest you leave it. Only the bow's spirit remains, the bow itself is already nowhere to be seen" Demon Dragon answered.

"Then, was there a talisman called Red Wraith?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.

"You know about that as well? Its situation is the exact opposite of the bow. The main body of the talisman is currently inside the Wraith Temple, but the talisman's spirit is nowhere to be seen" Demon Dragon replied.

"Both of the Wraith realm's treasures sure are in a terrible situation" Gu Qing Shan commented.

Demon Dragon nodded and followed up: "Neither of their Divine Artifacts is complete, so the Wraith realm is unable to suppress any calamity------- perhaps this was karma for all the deaths this world had caused"

"Where are they right now?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.

------artifacts of this degree might be left in the same place as the Samsara Delimitation Divine Sword.

"They're all naturally left with the Grand Empress------- wait, the person ahead on your right hates Cang Wu Zhang to an extreme. You should be careful; you won't be a match for her" Demon Dragon reminded him again.

Gu Qing Shan followed his words and looked forward.

He saw Lin.

The 12-winged seraph, Lin.

Lin was currently giving orders to the angels with her arms crossed, but suddenly sensed something and looked over, noticing Gu Qing Shan.

"Let's leave quickly, she enjoys challenging Cang Wu Zhang to one-on-one combat, using that as an excuse to beat him up" Demon Dragon explained.

"Even with the strongest Guise Hex, Cang Wu Zhang was no match for her?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

"Completely unmatched. Her ability to take hits is on a completely different level to ours" Demon Dragon replied.

Gu Qing Shan was speechless.

In the past, it was Demon Dragon's body that was the most damage-resistant.

Demon Dragon would have been able to take on any physical attack without the fear of death.

But now, he had already reincarnated into a Wraith realm cultivator again.

After obtaining the 12-winged seraph Abyssal form, Lin's damage resistance had actually surpassed Demon Dragon's.

"Let's hurry up and go, she has already spotted you!" Demon Dragon urged.

Both of them sped up.

Suddenly.

A gust of wind blew against them.

Lin's figure silently landed in front of them and blocked their way.

"Pretty boy, how come you're running as soon as you see me?"

Lin raised her hand and cracked her knuckles, causing a series of popping noises.

Gu Qing Shan paused and looked at her.

Boss sent his voice: "How about sending your voice to tell inform her of your identity"

Gu Qing Shan resolutely denied it: "Definitely not! Everyone's attention is currently on us, Lin is also a straightforward person, so if she found out my identity, her expression might change and draw suspicion"

"Then what now? You can't actually fight her, because you don't know any of Cang Wu Zhang's techniques, you'd only expose yourself" Boss said.

At this point, everyone had turned their way; focusing their attention on the two of them.

-------the conflict between Wraith Might Lan Jiang and Wraith Might Cang was an internal conflict so no one wanted to get involved, but this one was a conflict between the two races of angel and wraith.

This time, even Wraith Might Lan Jiang had taken his distance with a grin that clearly indicated him laughing at another's pain.

In front of everyone, Gu Qing Shan faced Lin's gaze straight on and sighed: "Hah, this woman, you're trying to draw my attention through battle, aren't you?"

Lin's expression became frigid and grunted: "I don't want to see your face, trash"

Gu Qing Shan took a step back but didn't shift into a fighting stance and only clasped his hand, smiling with a knowing expression: "You're saying that you don't want to see me-------- but aren't you practically waiting to fight me? Hah, I'm actually here to meet the Grand Empress, so if you're stopping me like this…"

Lin froze.

------how am I supposed to beat him up now?

If I act, wouldn't that prove that he was right?

Not to mention, he's saying that he's coming to meet the Grand Empress, so if I did act right now, wouldn't that brand me as trying to steal the Grand Empress' little man?

I'm here on a covert mission, I can't get shackled with such a reputation!

Alright, I'll wait until the Wraith realm is destroyed before I take this dog's life.

"Tsk"

Lin suddenly turned around and headed away.

She left very quickly while exuding clear killing intent.

-----a martial artist wasn't afraid of exposing their true emotions.

Gu Qing Shan silently sighed.

Boss then commented: "You're saved for now, but if Lin learns of the truth later on…"

"We'll cross that bridge when we get there" Gu Qing Shan replied.

At this point, Demon Dragon cleared his throat and said; "Wraith Might Cang, are you really heading to see the Grand Empress?"

Gu Qing Shan immediately followed up: "Was there something else?"

"Ahaha, I actually wanted to ask you to come and check a few treasures I've found recently" Demon Dragon replied.

"Alright, then I'll come with you first and seek an audience with the Grand Empress later" Gu Qing Shan happily said.

-------the subject has been changed.

Now I don't need to meet the Grand Empress, all of the minor issues have been resolved, and I'd be able to take this chance to disappear with Demon Dragon from everyone's eyes.

After that, I only need to silently observe the situation.

The two of them exchanged glances, nodded, then began heading in another direction.

Right at this moment, deep within the palace, a voice suddenly called out:

"On orders of the Grand Empress, summon Cang Wu Zhang for an audience, effective immediately!"

The two of them stopped.

Demon Dragon's expression changed a bit and sent his voice: "Oh no, what now?"

Gu Qing Shan maintained his calm and replied: "That Occultism treasure said that it's currently suitable for me to meet her, there won't be an issue"

"Then------"

"Wait for me somewhere, I'll go and check the situation"

"If she wants you to tell her stories about the Age of Immemorial------"

Gu Qing Shan grinned and replied: "I'm an expert on that as well, don't worry"

He turned and headed towards the grand hall.
