Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

The Human realm.

Luo Shui city had already been leveled to the ground.

There was nothing but barren land for miles in every direction.

On top of that barren land was a single table made out of Immortal Jade, on top of which there was a pot.

A pot that was steaming with spicy broth.

Qin Xiao Lou was sitting at the table with a bowl and chopsticks in his hand, cheerfully dipping some beef into the hotpot.

He was sweating from the spiciness and occasionally taking a sip of alcohol from his cup, seemingly having the time of his life.

"Third Brother is saved"

"Sister Li An said that the matter in the Human realm has concluded, and all Chosen Saints have gone to participate in the next round of competition----"

"In other words, I have nothing left to do!"

He picked up another piece of meat from the hotpot and happily ate.

I still have a large stockpile of spirit stones, regular money, and even various cultivation supplies.

The Human realm is now at peace, my junior sisters and brother are nowhere to be seen.

Shifu------

Is also not here.

I can finally head into a real brothel and immerse myself in music, art, and ladies---- all sort of nice ladies!

Now that's living!

With that in mind, Qin Xiao Lou couldn't help but hum a melody: "Life is beautiful------"

Suddenly, a female voice interrupted him from behind:

"What happened here?"

"Whoa, Shifu! Why did you appear without warning, you almost scared me to death!"

A green gate of light had just opened up in the void of space, from which Xie Dao Ling emerged with a key in her hand.

"The city is destroyed… what exactly happened here?"

Xie Dao Ling frowned and asked.

Qin Xiao Lou swiftly prepared a set of utensils for her, led her to the host seat, then started explaining: "It was like this…"

He then recounted all the events so far.

Xie Dao Ling asked: "Do you still have a base in another city?"

"I do, I've set up a base in all the prosperous cities on the land. What does Shifu want to do?" Qin Xiao Lou quickly answered.

Xie Dao Ling sighed and sat down at the hotpot table.

Qin Xiao Lou waited for a while, only to see that she was very earnestly placing a flavoring pill into the pot, so he couldn't ask.

He then helped her add more coal for the fire, prepared more side dishes, dipped more meat, poured more alcohol, and carefully waited on her.

I thought that Shifu was just being herself like always, but something seems to be different this time.

Xie Dao Ling was simply seated there, not picking up any food, nor eating anything.

It was as if she was stumped.

This was a very rare state to see Xie Dao Ling in.

Qin Xiao Lou cautiously asked: "Shifu… does it not suit your taste?"

Xie Dao Ling regained her senses and replied: "That's not it, but I believe your Third Brother is stuck in quite a predicament… our situation isn't that much better either, so I'm trying to come up with a solution"

"What exactly is the situation?" Qin Xiao Lou worriedly asked.

Xie Dao Ling muttered: "I've always thought that it was a legend… but I didn't think that the legends were actually true…"

"Legend? What kind of legend?" Qin Xiao Lou asked.

Xie Dao Ling explained in a low voice: "During the previous era, there was a legend that spoke of three extremely secretive disciplines. It was said that if someone managed to cultivate these disciplines to the extreme, they would undergo an unbelievable transformation and sublimate to become supreme void arts"

"These three supreme arts… one of them was called the Parallel World Art, capable of creating countless realities within the River of Time, all of which would contain different living beings with different Fates, and the worlds within them would also actually exist, truly a profound mystical feat, hailed as the top defensive technique within the Boundless Void"

Hearing her explanation, Qin Xiao Lou couldn't help but feel mesmerized.

Creating an infinite number of parallel worlds, using billions of worlds and living beings to defend oneself, what an unimaginable technique!

Thinking about it for a bit, he couldn't help but comment: "I think I've heard Third Brother describe such circumstances before"

Xie Dao Ling replied: "Indeed, someone had performed this Art within the Reality Gate that we previously resided in…"

"Was it because Shifu discovered traces of this Art that you feel troubled?" Qin Xiao Lou asked.

"No------ in reality, I actually saw another of the supreme Void Arts" Xie Dao Ling answered.

"Another Art?" Qin Xiao Lou exclaimed.

Xie Dao Ling sighed and explained: "That's right, our enemy possesses a supreme Void Art comparable to that of the Parallel World Art"

"In the legends, it was called the One Being Myriad Lives Art, the second of the three supreme Void Art"

Qin Xiao Lou pondered: "One Being Myriad Lives? Why does that sound similar to Shifu's incarnation technique?"

"No, it is completely different, as it's a type of offensive technique…"

While she was speaking, Xie Dao Ling abruptly slammed the table and sternly declared: "We have an emergency in our hands, we need to come up with a way for the other 'me' to find me as soon as possible"

"…Huh… huh?" Qin Xiao Lou couldn't keep up with the pace and looked at Xie Dao Ling in shock.

------emergency?

Why did the situation suddenly become an emergency?

Xie Dao Ling stood up and stated: "Dear disciple, we need to head to the nearest city and open a restaurant to enact your 'number one spirit cooking restaurant' plan, only then would we be able to lead the other 'me' to us"

"Why can't we simply go and search for her?" Qin Xiao Lou asked.

"There is a Miracle separating me and her, we wouldn't be able to reach her no matter what, only the reverse is possible" Xie Dao Ling explained.

Her gaze appeared slightly heavier.

Not only does the enemy possess the Pendant of Fire, but they've also concealed themselves by wielding a supreme Void Art only heard of in legends.

------how are we supposed to fight against that?

"Don't worry, Shifu, your disciple will reopen the Green Building and become the number one in the realm as soon as we reach the next city!"

Qin Xiao Lou patted his chest with pride.

…

The underside of the Human realm.

Countless tombstones and graves could be seen dotting the ground, with a gloomy frigid river flowing between all of them on top of the barren wasteland.

A grand city stood firmly on the bank of the river.

Heavenly Palace city!

The elongated skull was charging towards this grand city--------

From a distance, it had already unleashed its Apocalyptic Emptiness powers to attack Heavenly Palace city.

Dooo!

A heavy sound of impact could be heard from inside Heavenly Palace city.

The paper sheet floating above Heavenly Palace city was releasing light to shield it against the Apocalyptic power of the elongated skull.

『 Hah, let us see just how much Merit they can waste 』Li An coldly scoffed.

All the Chosen Saints within Star Gazer city all had devious expressions on their faces.

-----so you bunch of Heavenly Palace city attacked us earlier huh?

Good, I'd like to see if you can still act so high and mighty when Star Gazer's City Lord draws that horrifying Apocalypse towards you!
