Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1826  Rescue

『 Have you taken a look? 』the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation asked.

"Indeed, I have nothing but gratitude toward the Hall Master for allowing me to take a look, I will not forget this favor" Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist and said.

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation chuckled happily.

A personal favor recognized by the Death God, it was worth granting him this convenience.

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation thought for a bit and gave him another advice:

『 Then keep this in mind as well, even though our Merits might be more than sufficient, retrieving the sword isn't a matter that depends on Deific Authority 』

"Then what does it depend on?"

Gu Qing Shan asked.

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation casually replied: 『 Below the High Deity, there are countless Deities of Huang Quan, many of which possess enough prowess to rival even you and me 』

Gu Qing Shan understood what she meant right away.

"We are Virtuous Deities of Huang Quan, those with immeasurable Merits, but our combat strengths aren't necessarily the best" he commented.

『 This old lady is responsible for the affairs of the Hall of Reincarnation, capable of managing every last facet of Huang Quan without missing a speck of dust; even on the battlefield, this one can command armies with stratagem that pales in comparison to none------- but when it comes to one-on-one combat, this one wouldn't be able to claim any prizes 』the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation replied without any changes in her expression.

Gu Qing Shan clasped his fist: "Thank you very much for the teachings"

A girl suddenly approached them, speaking to the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation in a hurried voice: "Mother, I managed to return from the battlefield, but he's still trapped in that danger zone"

Gu Qing Shan's gaze was immediately drawn to the girl.

It wasn't because of anything, except for the fact that her weapon was a pair of pink fluffy claws.

------this was the Divine Artifact that Laura and I found back then!

I gave this Divine Artifact to Demon Dragon, so why does this girl have it?

While Gu Qing Shan was pondering this, the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation explained to him: 『 This is my daughter Liu Ye, currently serving as the Reincarnation Bao Lord of the Hall of Reincarnation------- Liu Ye, come and greet the venerable Death God 』

your spouse and partner, why does it matter it he dies a few times on the battlefield? Not to mention, the world that you were headed in only had monsters of mediocre The girl hastily bowed to Gu Qing Shan before continuing in a panicked tone: "Mother, I beg you, please go and save him, he's in a very dangerous situation!"

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation scoffed coldly: 『 He's a grown man, as well as your spouse and partner, why does it matter it he dies a few times on the battlefield? Not to mention, the world that you were headed in only had monsters of mediocre strength 』

Liu Ye kept begging with a miserable tone: "It isn't the same this time, when those monsters noticed that more and more dead beings were helping us in battle, they also underwent a new change"

『 "A new change!?" 』Gu Qing Shan and the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation both exclaimed.

"Yes, they've begun to devour our people, and whoever they devoured would become one of their own" Liu Ye explained.

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation stood straight up and sternly confirmed: 『 In other words------- the dead can no longer return to Hell after they die? 』

Liu Ye silently nodded, then swiftly asked again: "Mother, just this once, please save him, I beg you"

As the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation was hesitating, a voice resounded from above the Forgetting River: 『 Reincarnation Hall Master, come and see me 』

-------this was the Huang Quan High Deity's voice.

『 The High Deity has given the orders so I must go-------- But fine, I will send out some men to save him 』the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation said.

Liu Ye cried out: "That's not enough! Even with our numbers, we were still repelled. The other party is simply too powerful, only an expert of mother's caliber would be able to save him"

The Master of the Hall of Reincarnation appeared a bit awkward.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly spoke up: "The one you are referring to, could it be brother Leng, Leng Qian Chen?"

"That is indeed my husband" Liu Ye replied.

Gu Qing Shan was speechless.

Well done, Demon Dragon…

You did very well in Huang Quan indeed.

Gu Qing Shan smiled and told her: "I've only gotten acquainted with him recently but I feel a very close connection with brother Leng. He did help me register quite a few Huang Quan machines during our collaboration, I suppose I can go save him"

Liu Ye was surprised, then exclaimed in joy: "Venerable Death God, are you really willing to personally go and save him?"

"I already intended to head to the frontlines------- Hall Master, leave this to me, you should head to the Forgetting River now, lest you keep the High Deity waiting" Gu Qing Shan told the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation.

『 Then I must trouble you 』the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation replied.

The two of them exchanged formalities, then the Master of the Hall of Reincarnation flew out of the palace directly towards the Forgetting River.

Gu Qing Shan then said: "Let's go, Liu Ye, help me find brother Leng"

"Yes!"

Liu Ye then took out a small silver sphere and tossed it on the ground.

The sphere then began to unravel itself into connected but individual pieces of silver metal, which then surrounded Gu Qing Shan and Liu Ye before a cold but sentient voice sounded around them:

[Huang Quan machine No.666, at your service]

[Please state your destination]

Liu Ye spoke: "Standard battlefield No.371"

The machine responded right away: [Understood, navigating transmission----]

[Initiating!]

Gu Qing Shan felt himself being enveloped by light before leaving the Huang Quan world.

…

Flames that reached as high as the clouds.

This used to be a barren planet, but it was now the field of war.

Countless monsters and dead beings from Huang Quan were fighting against one another.

And the tides of battle were ever changing------

The monsters have begun to engage in a counterattack.

The dead that were originally not afraid to die were now acting hesitant and weary. Their fighting spirit was decreasing by the second, their lines of defense were being breached through one by one.

A flash of light.

Gu Qing Shan and Liu Ye, both appeared in the sky.

With a scan of his Inner Sight, Gu Qing Shan recognized the battle situation right away.

A group of dead beings had just been struck down after losing; the monsters whose bodies were made of stardust, immediately leapt forward and transformed into a mass of mud, perfectly encapsulating the dead.

"Hurry and save them, once they're fully enveloped, they'll be turned into those monsters as well!" Liu Ye exclaimed in panic.

"So that was how it is"

Gu Qing Shan's gaze scanned towards the faraway warzone.

In an instant, countless sword phantoms manifested from the void of space and squarely struck the trapped dead beings.

------Divine Skill, [Forgetting River Slash]!

The mud that encapsulated the dead beings was sliced off without fail.

Without a pause, Gu Qing Shan drew the Delimitation Divine Sword and casually swung it forward.

A massive torrent of sword phantoms completely eclipsed the warzone, enveloping everything in a bright light almost like the scene of an Apocalypse.

"You---" Liu Ye was shocked.

"The people I kill will all return to Hell, that way they no longer need to worry about being devoured by the monsters and lose themselves" Gu Qing Shan said.

He thought briefly and continued: "There's a very easy solution to this, just have them all commit suicide when they lose. After this, have the Hall of Reincarnation make some self-destructing equipment, the dead can just use that to return to Huang Quan whenever they feel like they're going to lose the fight"

Liu Ye was now stunned.

That's true.

Why didn't I think of that?

This person's mind is so sharp.

"Venerable one, please hurry and save my husband" Liu Ye begged with a slight panicked tone.

"Where is he?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

"At the clifftop warzone on that side!" Liu Ye replied.

Gu Qing Shan turned towards the direction she was pointing in.

Only to see that there were no longer any dead beings on that side of the clifftop.

There was only a single individual, facing against an endless horde of stardust monsters without retreating even an inch.

Gu Qing Shan turned to observe the other warzones.

The rest of the war zones were still relatively fine, they were indeed in a losing position, but it wasn't quite as perilous as the clifftop area.

Just as Gu Qing Shan was about to make a move, he paused abruptly.

He looked up and noticed a giant face that had appeared above the sky.

The face was enveloped in layers of nebula, only appearing very faintly, revealing some ferocious and terrible boney spikes.

Behind the face, an innumerable number of monsters were descending from outer space.

After evaluating them briefly, Gu Qing Shan's expression changed.

He rapidly spoke: "The newly arrived monsters are overall stronger than before, the forces of the dead aren't sufficient to face them. I need you to head back to the Hall of Reincarnation and send out as many higher-tiered Professionists as possible"

------but why?

Why did the war situation suddenly become more intense?

Liu Ye replied with a panicked tone: "But then------ my husband-----"

"Wait a moment"

At the next instant.

Gu Qing Shan vanished and reappeared on top of the cliff.

With a swing of his sword, a ten-thousand-meter long sword phantom charged through the void of space and reduced all the monsters to dust.

"Why are you here?"

Leng Qian Chen's pressure was greatly alleviated, allowing him to cough up some blood as he asked.

"There's no need to be so formal, brother Leng. I came to observe the power of these monsters, but then again, why are they only surrounding you?" Gu Qing Shan asked.

"I discovered their secret" Leng Qian Chen muttered in a low voice.

Gu Qing Shan's eyebrows shifted.

All the monsters in the sky are heading towards this clifftop.

It seems like the Demon Dragon is telling the truth.

In that case, his safety is the highest priority, it's best to send him back first-------

Gu Qing Shan immediately caught Leng Qian Chen and vanished from the encirclement of monsters.

The two of them reappeared next to Liu Ye.

Seeing that, Liu Ye was ecstatic and immediately activated the No.666 Huang Quan machine.

"I owe you this once"

Before leaving, Leng Qian Chen left those words.

Gu Qing Shan simply grinned without saying anything.

As the two of them vanished from this world, he unleashed another sword strike and pushed back the tsunami-like horde of monsters.

"Bringing them all back… too troublesome, no time…"

He muttered to himself as he flew to the top of the cliff and brandished his sword towards the void of space.

[All-Encompassing Sword Realm]!

In an instant, all the dead beings in this world vanished.

They had all been taken into his sword realm and were temporarily in no danger.

Gu Qing Shan silently stood with both hands on his sword hilt, not saying a single word.

Illusory swords started to separate from the golden-jade sword at a rapid pace before turning tangible and becoming new flying swords.

The sky was filled with monsters.

While both the ground and the void of space of this world were filled with flying swords.

-------Delimitation Thaumaturgy, [Void Dao]!

This was also the reason that the Delimitation Divine Sword could become myriads from one.

Standing in the middle of hundreds of thousands of flying swords, Gu Qing Shan kept both of his hands motionlessly on the sword's grip.

Up until the very last moment that the horde of monsters in the sky reached him.

He abruptly grunted: "By my [River Traversing Iron Sword], eliminate the enemy!"

Oong oong oong oong oong--------

The world was filled with the sound of ringing swords.

anything as their bodies were slashed, cut, and reduced to ashes before being Myriads of swords unleashed their might in unison!

Gigantic sword phantoms flew rapidly towards the sky like cannonballs.

The charging horde of monsters were caught by the sword phantoms, unable to do anything as their bodies were slashed, cut, and reduced to ashes before being completely blown away by the intense sword-infused wind.

From the depths of the sky, the giant face clad in nebula uttered a resounding furious roar:

「Detestable… I will devour you! 」

Gu Qing Shan laughed heartily as black flames manifested around his body while he charged into the sky.

A lasting dragon's roar resonated in every direction.

While in flight, Gu Qing Shan had transformed into a dragon of black flames that continued to charge straight at the nebula monster.

「 We'll see who eats who… GRAHHH! 」

The black dragon opened its mouth and spat out an intense dragon's breath.

As soon as the dragon's breath manifested, the black dragon vanished without a trade.

Once again, Gu Qing Shan wielded the Delimitation Divine Sword and unleashed a blindingly bright crescent slash.

Boom-------

The mere fluctuation of sword qi was enough to cause this barren planet to start falling apart.

The planet was collapsing!

Without paying mind to it, Gu Qing Shan's killing intent became sharp as he brandished his sword upwards-----

He wanted to kill the giant face as well as the rest of the monsters in a single go!

Right at this time, two lines of bloody red text appeared from the void of space:

[Attention]

[The slumbering Chao Yin sword has awoken]
