Worlds’ Apocalypse Online

On a mountaintop.

Gu Qing Shan was standing on top of a boulder as he silently looked at the void of space in front of himself.

A total of 12 magic mirrors were floating in the air, each displaying a different location from the world.

Whether they were a good person or not, everyone born into this world must undergo a so-called 'baptism', through which they would join the Corruption Sequence.

At birth and at death, they must follow the teachings and instructions of the Corruption Codex.

Everyone followed the will of Corruption without exception.

As soon as anyone went against the arrangements of the Church, they would automatically be labelled a heretic; not only would they have to face the jeers and ridicule of society as a whole, but they would also earn a ticket heading straight towards the gallows.

After observing for a long while, Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but shake his head.

It's very simple to destroy this world, but the majority of living beings in this world are actually innocent.

Their only fault is being born into a society that indoctrinates them from the very moment that they're born, gradually and subconsciously altering their sense of value until it's unrecognizable.

Is there a way to change all this?

Gu Qing Shan fell into deep thought.

After a long while.

He silently chanted an incantation.

He vanished from the mountaintop and reappeared several miles away, inside the Sanctuary of the Church of Corruption.

No one could see him.

He walked straight into the great library of the Sanctuary, trying several incantations before he finally gained access.

He then began to study the secret magical tomes that were stored here.

The day went by, followed by night.

A total of three whole days.

Gu Qing Shan finally finished reading all the magical tomes within the library.

From these magical tomes, he managed to discern the highest level of power in this world.

-------it could only be considered 'acceptable' at most.

"Corruption bestows living beings a certain level of aid in exchange for their religious worship, but… it doesn't dare to allow this civilization to develop without limits…"

Gu Qing Shan muttered to himself.

If this civilization was allowed to develop without limits, the standard level of knowledge and understanding will gradually be raised, which could even reflect on their grasp of knowledge, resulting in an inevitable outcome------

They will begin to study the Laws of Reality, gradually gaining a more profound understanding of the essence of this world.

In that case, they would start to have increasingly more independent thoughts, wishing to experiment with various different paths.

Gu Qing Shan closed the book he was reading and paced around the room for a little while.

"Please send me back to the basic Magic-type world"

He said.

The world sensed his request right away.

Gu Qing Shan immediately vanished from the world he was in and returned to the basic Magic-type world.

…

"Do you really intend to rebuild the Church?" the White Mountain king asked.

"Indeed, I will rebuild the Church and spread the essence of magic across this entire world, helping each country in its development from every aspect"

He then took out a small bowl filled with liquid and placed it in front of the White Mountain king.

"What is this?" the White Mountain king asked.

"A body-conditioning elixir, it will help promote your majesty's longevity" Gu Qing Shan replied.

-------it was only because of the overwhelming mental strength and analysis capabilities he obtained from rapid evolution that he managed to develop Magic to the point that a longevity elixir was possible.

The White Mountain king picked up the small bowl, still a bit unconvinced.

"You can give it a try, I'm willing to stay here and wait" Gu Qing Shan smiled and said.

"If this is true, then our White Mountain kingdom will surely support the reconstruction of the Church as much as we can" the White Mountain king answered.

"Then I thank you in advance. I will first rebuild the Sanctuary before inviting the countries of this world to give us the aid we were promised" Gu Qing Shan replied.

After saying that, he vanished from in front of the White Mountain king.

…

Where the Sanctuary originally stood.

The land was still charred and ruined.

Standing in the air, Gu Qing Shan muses: "First, a roof…"

With a wave of his hand, rock and minerals hidden deep underground began to break through the surface, rapidly being refined into metal by magic.

Gu Qing Shan manipulated the metal, melting it before forging it into well-designed buildings.

He waved his hand again.

All the buildings fell back to the ground, and then became connected with the rocks that were still underground to form a sturdy and solid foundation.

The buildings were neatly lined up next to one another to form a magnificent array of structures.

These structures appeared holy and divine, almost as if the will of the world was imbued into them, supporting Gu Qing Shan in doing what he was doing.

Furthermore, as all the buildings were made from pure refined metal, it was practically a miracle.

Gu Qing Shan picked out another group of various metals and began to engrave knowledge onto them, describing the essence and nature of magic.

After a few days, he promoted all types of magic to an advanced degree.

"It's probably still a bit lacking at this level"

Gu Qing Shan thought about it for a while and decided to continue researching magic.

As time went by, he understood how to achieve a body molded by the Laws of Reality using magic, and finally the way to achieve Godhood.

Gods, to be frank, are still living beings, albeit their positions were very high on the world's natural order, being capable of directly commanding the Elements and utilizing the Laws of Reality to their benefit.

At this point, all the ambassadors of the world's Kingdoms and Empires had arrived at the Sanctuary.

Gu Qing Shan temporarily stopped his research to go meet them.

"Everyone, let us be quick------"

Gu Qing Shan then chanted an incantation under his breath.

Immediately, frozen spikes began to manifest far above the sky where he was standing.

"Everyone here should already know the truth about the tree inside the blade"

"Perhaps there are those who aren't willing to believe my words"

"But that doesn't matter, as the frozen spikes in the sky that I summoned with my power will now become Heaven's Punishment"

"Whenever someone touched those devil's artifacts and become one of them, they would only face a single outcome----"

"Death"

"Other than that, I'm honored to inform everyone here of something"

"I've grasped the secret to reaching Godhood through magic, and I'm preparing to spread it to the world for all magic wielders to learn"

"Our world as a whole will undergo a great leap of development"

"------Starting now"

Gu Qing Shan twitched his finger.
