Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

『 Soul Return Dispersal! 』Li An loudly declared.

All the bloody mist was then scattered by the wind.

Over a dozen terrifying severed heads of wraiths laid motionlessly on the ground, all of which were gradually turning pale white as they lost any signs of vitality they had within them.

"I've troubled you" Gu Qing Shan said.

『 It's indeed difficult to control several souls to such a precise degree------- but as long as it's for the sake of fighting the Heaven realm, we Tianma are always willing to give it a try 』Li An replied.

She then said with a bit of worry in her voice: 『 They said that the Samsara is nearly unable to suppress the Apocalypses, what does that mean? 』

Gu Qing Shan replied: "I suspect that it is because the Samsara had just been reset and it is currently at its weakest that this place exists"

『 What do you mean? 』

"-----This place is the underside of the Human realm, separated from it by the ground itself, a place specifically created to fight against the Apocalypse and maintain peace within the Human realm" Gu Qing Shan replied.

Li An muttered: 『 How strange, even if the Samsara had only just been reset, it shouldn't be so acting so cautiously… Are there perhaps some particularly powerful Apocalypses among them? 』

Gu Qing Shan sighed and nodded.

He couldn't help but think back to one particular Apocalypse he witnessed when he used [Night Cruiser] to travel along the river within the great tomb.

-------a thin elongated skull manifested from water vapor.

Any entities that came into contact with it would be stripped of their Time and Space, falling into endless nothingness without being able to escape, with death being their only form of release.

It was practically impossible to attack it as well, since it didn't exist within Space-Time.

An unresolvable Apocalypse.

And it wasn't the only Apocalypse that existed within the great tomb.

So it was natural for the Samsara to deal with them cautiously.

-----not to mention how there are still Apocalyptic Envoys lying in wait.

The only good news is that the Samsara had already escaped from the previous Reality Gate and has now entered a completely new reality.

It's possible that the Apocalyptic Envoys might have lost some sort of ability due to this, which explains why they haven't been able to summon the Apocalypses from outside the previous Reality Gate.

"Let's go, we're heading back" Gu Qing Shan said.

『 Back to the Green Building? 』 Li An asked.

"No, back to the warehouse, our business here had only just begun, it's not yet time to return" Gu Qing Shan replied.

As the two of them were about to set out, the severed heads on the ground suddenly took flight in unison.

They flew into the sky and exploded into a pale yellow circle in the air.

『 That's the seal of a Reversal-type Immortal Craft! 』Li An's expression changed.

"What does it do?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

『 It records light and images----- the events that transpired here have already been exposed! 』Li An explained.

Exposed?

In other words, the Heavenly Emperor already knows what happened here?

In an instant, lines of bloody red text quickly appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan:

[Attention, a certain Phase Realm is attempting to intersect with the present world]

[It is about to manifest in front of you]

Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through it and shouted: "Ye Ru Xi------"

In an instant, a woman dressed in simple military clothing appeared.

It was Ye Ru Xi.

"What's the matter?" she cautiously asked.

Gu Qing Shan replied: "Someone is coming"

As soon as he said that, an illusory image of a gigantic city began to manifest on top of the vast barren wasteland.

It was a dream-like city glowing in colorful divine light, despite how large it was, it was stably hovering in the middle of the air.

Numerous supernatural phenomena representing good luck were hovering around the gigantic city, accompanied by a wondrous heavenly aria and layers upon layers of shifting clouds. It appeared to be some sort of eternal city, or a city of Heaven that one could only dream of.

A solemn voice called out from the gigantic city:

「 Gu Qing Shan, being able to discover my plan, you can be considered quite a character indeed, but your loss is already determined 」

The Heavenly Emperor!

This was his voice!

Without waiting for Gu Qing Shan to answer, a dazzling heavenly light was shot out from the city, which instantly traversed the lengthy distance to reach Gu Qing Shan.

How fast!

Right as Gu Qing Shan was about to react, Ye Ru Xi had already stood in front of him.

She grumbled: "Shelter!"

Bam---------

A bronze wall that was hundreds of meters in length suddenly manifested on the ground in front of the three, perfectly shielding them.

The heavenly light violently struck the bronze wall, which caused a deafening thunderous echo.

Heaven and earth almost appeared to dim from the impact.

Everything became a blur.

It wasn't only until a while later that the aftermath of the impact had subsided.

"This level of power… should be one full-power strike from that city, it's a bit troublesome" Ye Ru Xi commented.

Her hand that was placed against the giant bronze wall was trembling a little.

Li An couldn't help but click her tongue when she saw that.

------this girl has retained her full strength!

Where did Gu Qing Shan find such a ferocious person, not only is her strength not sealed at all, she also managed to block an attack from the Heavenly Emperor that was meant to kill!

"Troublesome?" Gu Qing Shan snapped out of his shock and asked.

"If this continues, I won't be able to defend you" Ye Ru Xi replied.

『 Then we need to hurry up and flee 』saying that, Li An held onto Gu Qing Shan's sleeve.

"Wait a moment, let's not go just yet" Gu Qing Shan stopped her.

At this point, the Heavenly Emperor's voice reverberated again:

「 Being able to stop that attack, it seems you aren't fated to die today, very well, I shall let you go for now 」

Gu Qing Shan's expression appeared strange.

"Let me… go?"

He mumbled to himself, then took a deep breath and suddenly shouted: "Heavenly Emperor, you shameless son of a bitch! Come and fight me to the death if you dare!"

His voice reverberated throughout the empty, silent world.

Li An was almost scared stiff by his actions and hurriedly grabbed his hand, already rapidly chanting an incantation to flee.

Gu Qing Shan quickly covered her mouth.

"Wait a moment" he whispered.

The silence persisted for a short moment.

The Heavenly Emperor's chuckle was then heard: 「 What an impudent lone wraith without even a place to belong, this emperor shall tell you the harsh truth: an insect like you isn't worth the time of this emperor or the heavenly retainers as we are busy fighting the Apocalypse 」

「 Gu Qing Shan, you haven't even gone through the Elements Purgatory, but this emperor had already established an Immortal City, being bestowed unparalleled Merit and the favor of the Samsara. This emperor is already an Immortal City Ruler who had obtained an unrivaled Divine Skill 」

「 Once this emperor finishes fighting the Apocalypse off, this emperor shall lead the myriad heavenly beings back to the Human realm to search for you. Your body shall be flayed and butchered, your bones broken down and grinded, your soul will be banished into the Nine Serenities of Huang Quan, never to escape from infinite torture! 」

The Heavenly Emperor's voice was filled with his fury and killing intent, once again reverberating throughout the entire world.

Li An's expression became completely pale, her heart dropping all the way down.

Who could have imagined that everything the Heavenly Emperor had done up to this point had been a smokescreen?
