Worlds’ Apocalypse Online
454 Questioning The Sword
Taking over someone wasn't a small matter at all.
It was a violent way to break the Law of the world, changing the strings of fate for countless people, deeply affecting so many things that it was hard for a normal person to even fathom.
Gu Qing Shan calmly asked: "Sect master Tian, what is your intention for telling me all this?"
Tian Shan Ye's expression seemed a bit lonely.
"Originally, I wanted to trigger the take over of Wang Hong Dao as soon as he used this jade tag"
"When Wang Hong Dao touches this jade tag, I would enter his soul vessel and stay hidden, forcefully activating the take over spell when he's in battle to kill both him and myself"
"If he gave the jade tag to a disciple, I would take over that disciple"
"Once I do that, I would have slowly cultivate and become stronger, observing Wang Hong Dao's habits in the dark to find out his weakness"
"One day, when I become sure enough, I will assassinate and avenge the bloody grudge myself"
Gu Qing Shan sighed.
Tian Shan Ye, Sword and Blade double master, strongest man in the world.
Such a legendary character in history who stood at the peak of the world would've had so many preparations and means for any situation, but got killed by his own disciple in the end.
------a disciple who never went against his words even once for 300 years.
If I were Tian Shan Ye, I wouldn't have forgiven him either.
Gu Qing Shan spoke: "You were willing to endure the humiliation and even prepared the means to do it, but it seems you weren't successful"
"Indeed, Wang Hong Dao's paranoia and his own untrusting personality enabled him to find this jade tag, but didn't dare to practice it"
Tian Shan Ye had a look of total disbelief as he spoke: "The sword technique that he always dreamt of was in his hand, but because he was afraid that I would leave something to harm him, he actually managed to endure it and not use this jade tag even once for over 1000 years"
"He only managed to kill you from a sneak attack" Gu Qing Shan commented, "he knows what you are capable of, so he didn't dare to touch the jade tag"
Tian Shan Ye sighed: "He even kept himself from presenting this jade tag to his disciple. It wasn't until later that I knew about how he didn't trust even his disciples, placing lock seals on every person he took in"
"He's paranoid, afraid that his disciples might just be like himself, scheming to harm their own master" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"That's why the jade tag has always been sealed in this place, and I didn't find a chance to act" Tian Shan Ye concluded.
"So what do you want me to do? Let you take over?"
"No, you and I are strangers without a grudge or favor, and you aren't even his disciple" Tian Shan Ye answered.
He continued: "After 1000 years, I've reached my limit, I cannot wait any longer"
Waving his ethereal hand, the jade tag flew into it.
"I can sense your sword qi, so you must be a sword cultivator"
"I am"
"Then swear to the heaven and earth, if you are powerful enough, you will kill Wang Hong Dao"
"This is the deal you spoke of?"
"Correct, if you swear such an oath, I will teach you a sword technique"
Stopping for a bit, Tian Shan Ye continued.
"I can sense from your sword qi that you are pure and determined, very suitable for the sword technique I devised, as long as you------"
While Tian Shan Ye still wanted to say something, Gu Qing Shan already spoke.
"I swear that I will kill Wang Hong Dao"
An invisible current flowed from the heaven and earth, surrounding Gu Qing Shan.
Tian Shan Ye was stunned.
Why is this young man so assertive?
"This oath isn't a joke, to a cultivator, violating an oath you swore hold very severe consequences" Tian Shan Ye sincerely told him.
"I know, I've already sworn once to kill this person" Gu Qing Shan told him.
"Why?"
"He killed my father, my father is this generation's sect matter"
"Why did he do such a thing?"
"My father was about to breakthrough to Cryptic realm, but Wang Hong Dao's wounds still hadn't healed, and they were mortal enemies"
Gu Qing Shan casually explained how he and Wang Hong Dao's two disciples already decided to team up.
Tian Shan Ye fell into thought.
This sword cultivator in front of me has two Tribulation realm beauties as his maids, so he must be quite influential in the sect.
If what he said is true, he was this generation's Zwei Wei Hall's Hallmaster.
More importantly, this sword cultivator already swore an oath to heaven and earth to kill Wang Hong Dao.
Such an oath cannot be faked.
He will definitely have to kill Wang Hong Dao, so any lies are useless.
Not to mention, his father, the current sect master was also killed by Wang Hong Dao.
If that's the case, there's no better candidate to give him the sword technique.
Furthermore, it's very possible for 3 Virtualized realm cultivators to assassinate and kill a wounded Cryptic realm cultivator.
Tian Shan Ye finally sighed: "Wang Hong Dao, ah, Wang Hong Dao. You schemed and plotted to kill me all those years ago, but now it's your turn to be plotted and killed by your own disciples with an outsider!"
"This is karma!"
Saying so, Tian Shan Ye couldn't hold himself back and broke out into laughter.
This was the most joyous day for him for the last 1000 years.
Tian Shan Ye held the jade tag tightly in his hand.
As he gazed at Gu Qing Shan, he suddenly recalled that Gu Qing Shan was also a sword cultivator.
That's right, a sword cultivator
Staying silent for a few seconds, Tian Shan Ye's thoughts changed a bit.
"Before I disappear, there is something I want to ask you" he said.
"Please" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"When I sense your sword qi, I feel a sharp determination and an extreme killing intent, but do you know that a sword cultivator who's too immersed in killing will not be able to go far on their journey?"
"I do"
"Then why does your sword qi not change?" Tian Shan Ye asked.
"Swords are used to kill your enemies, this is the most basic principle of the sword" Gu Qing Shan answered without much care.
"You mean to say that those you kill all deserve to die?" Tian Shan Ye pursued.
"No, no one is born to be killed by a sword cultivator"
Gu Qing Shan shook his head: "But a sword cultivator doesn't need to question who he kills, only who he saves through killing"
Tian Shan Ye went silent, but his eyes showed approval.
"…A good sword cultivator indeed"
He mumbled, his thoughts clear.
"If that's the case, then there are no longer any problems"
Tian Shan Ye formed a complicated seal and infused it into the jade tag.
"I have just dispelled the trap I placed on the jade tag"
He spoke slowly: "I will now record my sword technique into the jade tag. I hope that you'll be able to pass my swordsmanship on"
He placed the jade tag onto his forehead.
After a few seconds, the jade tag silently hovered in midair while his soul slowly became transparent.
"There is one last thing I need to tell you. The realm demon descended on this world just before I began my recuperation"
"I have a very different outlook on the realm demon compared to others"
His gaze became just a bit more serious.
Gu Qing Shan then clasped his hands: "Please tell me your view, I will be very grateful"
"I can't say, it's too dangerous" Tian Shan Ye shook his head.
Taking another jade tag in hand, he seems to be recording some sort of information in it.
"After you're prepared yourself, check this jade tag"
Saying so, Tian Shan Ye's voice became faint.
The transparent body slowly scattered into sparks of light.
He has reached his end.
"Senior, you…" Gu Qing Shan seemed emotional.
Tian Shan Ye spoke: "Although you and I only got the opportunity to meet once, your temperament and sword qi resonates greatly with my swordsmanship"
His voice was now so low that it was almost inaudible.
"And so, what I left you wasn't a single sword technique, but all of my sword and blade techniques"
Gu Qing Shan trembled.
He didn't think he would choose to do such a thing.
Tian Shan Ye stared straight at Gu Qing Shan, opening his mouth but said nothing.
As if he wanted to say but decided not to.
But Gu Qing Shan understood.
Gu Qing Shan clasped his fists and spoke sincerely: "I will kill him with your sword techniques"
Tian Shan Ye smiled happily.
The sparks of light erupted from Tian Shan Ye's body like a reversed waterfall, flowing upwards into the void of space.
The waterfall of light slowly faded.
A legendary figure had passed on.
The jade tag hovering in midair silently fell down, caught in Gu Qing Shan's hand.
"Gongzi, please be careful for traps" Qing Rou scowled and reminded him.
"Don't worry, there isn't one" saying so, Gu Qing Shan had a regretful expression.
"Why are you sure that there isn't a trap? He wanted to plot against his disciple, what if he plotted against you as well?" Wan Er asked while confused.
"There is no plot here" Gu Qing Shan shook his head and said.
His tone was firm and stern.
Hearing that, Qing Rou and Wan Er exchanged glances.
Treasuring the jade tag in his hand, Gu Qing Shan sighed.
"Between sword cultivators, there are only swords"
