Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

The entire world was currently covered in frost.

As well as deathly silence.

The frost giant looked at Gu Qing Shan, then at the woman before silently taking a few steps backwards.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

Indeed, he could sense that the one in front of him was none other than Xie Dao Ling, the one and only Xie Dao Ling.

But why doesn't she remember me?

Did she lose her memories as well?

No…

When the Samsara Clash for Supremacy was supposed to have begun the first time, when the Heavenly Emperor wanted to confer Shifu the position of '6th consort', he implied that if she agreed, he would release her past life incarnation's soul fragment.

Shifu also said that a fragment from her past life incarnation's soul was within the Heavenly Emperor's hand.

Could it be-----

The 'Shifu' in front of me is actually Shifu's soul fragment? Or perhaps her past incarnation?

Gu Qing Shan felt a small headache.

He understood the concepts of 'past incarnation' and 'present incarnation', he had also personally traveled through time, he knew about the fact that Bai Hua Fairy Xie Dao Ling was capable of summoning millions of incarnations and acting as an entire country on her own.

But he had never thought that Xie Dao Ling would be able to create a literal past incarnation of herself despite separating the two lives.

The woman stood in the middle of the shattered shackles, after moving her body around a bit, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Gu Qing Shan again.

"You said that you are my disciple, do you have any proof of identities?" she asked.

Gu Qing Shan replied right away: "The Earth Sword------"

Wait.

The Earth sword was part of her life after reincarnating into Xie Dao Ling.

Everything I came into contact with was things that happened to her present life incarnation.

…Maybe Thaumaturgies can awaken through different lives?

Gu Qing Shan quickly corrected himself and said: "My master is capable of Million Incarnations"

"Million Incarnations is only a minor technique, I am not the only one who commands it" the woman calmly replied.

Gu Qing Shan wracked his brain and respectfully added: "Shifu's an expert in the art of taking without asking, the best in the world"

The woman frowned.

"That is also a minor art, it can't be considered a true capability" she evaluated Gu Qing Shan and asked: "What else is there?"

Gu Qing Shan could sense that he had somewhat convinced her and continued: "Shifu remembers a lot of details regarding the Samsara, always capable of recalling extraordinary secrets and advanced secret arts whenever she observes something"

The woman muses: "Have I ever taught you anything?"

"Shifu frequently says that our Bai Hua sect is a family, it isn't a regular sect" Gu Qing Shan replied.

"Is there anything else?" the woman asked.

"Don't offend beautiful women who also wield immense power, or I would regret it" Gu Qing Shan answered.

The woman didn't ask anything else after hearing that.

On the other hand, the frost giant was listening to them from a little bit further away and muttered to himself: [That makes perfect sense…]

Gu Qing Shan was afraid that she was still unconvinced and continued: "I once traveled back to the Age of Immemorial and witnessed the descent of the Samsara, at which point I heard your voice"

"What did I say?" the woman asked.

Gu Qing Shan started recalling as he answered: "For today's plan, I had no choice but to use the aura of this Apocalypse to camouflage and prevent other Apocalypses from arriving, stalling enough time for the Samsara fragments to fly through"

"This must be kept an absolute secret, all living beings must not have a single bit of this memory or else insurmountable calamity would ensue. The Worlds' Apocalypse would also manifest and end this world as well"

The woman's expression became determined and spoke: "You must be someone who knows me very well, but regarding who you are exactly, I am still not sure"

She continued: "At that time, I had already finished what I needed to do and was about to enter Huang Quan for reincarnation, but I was discovered by the Heavenly Emperor------ he had been waiting for that exact moment from the very beginning, for the exact moment that I run out of power in order to capture me. Having no other choice, I could only leave this incarnation to stall him while my main soul escapes into Huang Quan and reincarnate"

"So that's what happened" Gu Qing Shan had an epiphany.

He also felt a bit relieved.

-----the fact that Shifu was willing to explain what happened means that she has already started to trust me.

The woman continued: "In truth, I've already believed 30% of your words since you and your companion had destroyed the sealing tower to release me; furthermore, as everything you mentioned had relations to me, you certainly seem like my present life incarnation's disciple"

"I am your disciple" Gu Qing Shan insisted.

"Very well" the woman rubbed her chin a bit before taking out a turtle shell and tapping it with her finger.

White patterns began to appear on the shell of the turtle to form an irregular-shaped rune.

The woman examined the rune a bit and said: "From divination, it can be seen that you have the Great Earthen Virtue-------- it can sustain all, birth all, protect all things and all living beings, so as you make the request, all entities and non-entities within the Boundless Void would come to your aid. We must take advantage of the period while this protection still persists to quickly leave this place"

Understanding that she was referring to [True Luck], Gu Qing Shan asked:

"This place has already been destroyed, what is there to be afraid of?"

The woman held up the turtle shell in one hand while quickly forming various seals with the other: "Your companion's power has been completely spent, and your own powers have been sealed. Once the heavenly beings returned or the Heavenly Emperor notices what had happened here, we would not be able to leave any longer"

Gu Qing Shan looked behind him.

Shroud was sitting practically sprawled on the ground, trying his best not to breathe too heavily.

------destroying the sealing tower had expended all of Shroud's powers.

"I can sense the link of summoning from his body, it's best that you end the summoning so that he can return to rest" the woman said.

"Shroud, what do you say?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

The frost giant wiped some sweat from his forehead and smirked: [I'm just a bit drained of my stamina, it's fine. If the Heavenly Emperor arrives, I'll be ready to teach him a lesson or two]

Gu Qing Shan stayed silent.
