Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1747 The Elements Purgatory

While talking to Xie Dao Ling, Gu Qing Shan was continuously emanating a dark glowing

aura.

Layers upon layers of dark aura started to manifest into a vertical iris behind his back.

“Go, help that Apocalypse fight the Heavenly Emperor”

Gu Qing Shan muttered his order.

The vertical iris stared at him, then quickly faded away. Gu Qing Shan then turned to Xie Dao Ling and told her in a solemn voice: “That will only buy a short period of time—— the issue just now was with the black chains, as it wasn’t qualified to compete against the silver Gu insect that’s restraining you, right?”

Xie Dao Ling showed a small smile and answered: “Indeed, the more powerful the treasure, the more qualified it would be, but where would we find a treasure in such a hurry?”

Gu Qing Shan replied with a mischievous tone: “It’s currently three against one, I refuse to believe that such an issue can’t be resolved”

“Three against one?” Xie Dao Ling was confused.

“Yes”

Gu Qing Shan took out a black book from his chest.

——-the Book of the Sea.

“I want you to tell me right now. Is there a treasure within the Elements War Zone that can be used for my Shifu to deal with the Heavenly Emperor’s Gu insect?” Gu Qing Shan said.

(You would owe me one day’s worth of income) the Book of the Sea lazily answered.

“No problem” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The Book of the Sea opened by itself and began to display lines of text on its pages.

—–indeed, the Heavenly Emperor was wielding the Soul Artifact manifestation of one Saint Pillar: the Pendant of Fire.

However, the other three Saint Pillar Soul Artifacts: the Coin of the Earth, Key of the Wind, and Book of the Sea were all currently with Gu Qing Shan!

Gu Qing Shan read from the pages of the book:

(There are many unique treasures hidden within the Elements War Zone, but almost no one can discover them as they are being restrained by Apocalypses as their spoils of war, not even the Samsara can circumvent this fact]

[Among the countless treasures hidden here, only one fulfills your conditions]

[At the foot of the snowy mountain to your North, there is an Apocalyptic statue. By pushing its pedestal aside, you will find a long passage. Follow the passage and defeat all the monsters you see on the way. Move in the exact pattern of Left-Right-Left-Right-Up-Down, you will reach a secret room. There are 300 Apocalyptic monsters guarding the secret room, but there is only a single treasure chest inside the room, which makes it relatively safe—]

[A heavenly set of armor is stored within the chest that will supply your Shifu with enough power to restrain the silver snake on her body]

Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through and shouted: “Key of the Wind”

Oong—-

A glowing key appeared out of thin air.

——-it was the Traveler’s Key that Gu Qing Shan had forged!

Also known as the Soul Artifact manifestation of the Wind Saint Pillar.

Gu Qing Shan said: “I want to enter the location that the Book of the Sea just described, just state a price”

The Key of the Wind was a bit confused: (But you can get inside on your own]

“Time’s a factor, and I’m not free enough to be fighting those Apocalyptic monsters” Gu Qing Shan replied.

[Give me ten days of your lifespan, I’ll take you there) the Key of the Wind answered.

Gu Qing Shan confirmed: “Deal!” historical

——the price for utilizing the Key of the Wind was vitality.

The Key of the Wind then landed in Gu Qing Shan’s hand and pointed itself forward.

The void of space immediately opened up, revealing a green windy gate.

Holding onto Xie Dao Ling, Gu Qing Shan stepped through the gate.

Instantly, he landed in an open and silent room.

A room with a single chest at the center.

Gu Qing Shan stepped forward and easily opened the chest.

A radiant blue ray of light immediately illuminated the entire room. Some hesitant footsteps could be heard from outside the room without pause.

The monster seemed to have realized what was going on!

Boom——-

Suddenly, the Heavenly Emperor’s thunderous voice boomed through the thick earth above.

“Xie Dao Ling, did you think you could actually escape me?”

The entire underground complex began to tremble intensely.

The footsteps outside the door immediately shifted.

The monsters shouted in declaration: A Samsara being is approaching. Everyone, charge!]

[ Charge!

| Kill them! ] The monsters cried out one after another and rushed outside.

The secret room returned to silence.

“Tch, what a nice coincidence” Xie Dao Ling smiled and commented.

“While he still hasn’t made it here, Shifu, give this armor a try” Gu Qing Shan told her. He took the set of armor out and handed it to Xie Dao Ling.

Xie Dao Ling examined it briefly and slowly relaxed her eyebrows, confirming: “Indeed, it should conceal the Gu insect’s presence and make it so that the Heavenly Emperor can no longer sense me”

She lightly stroked the armor and chanted in a whisper:

“Light and dark, destruction and creation, a thousand techniques return to one”

The entire set of armor was instantly reduced to dust, manifesting a faint blue glow that turned into a thin string that wrapped itself around her wrist.

The silver rope immediately sensed its presence, but instead of turning into an insect to fight, it slithered along Xie Dao Ling’s arm and coiled around the blue string, turning itself into a silver string.

The silver and blue strings tied themselves into a thin rope around Xie Dao Ling’s pale white wrist, almost as if it was a nice accessory.

Xie Dao Ling waited for a moment before smiling: “This Gu insect is also quite a picky one. It looked down on the black chains, but felt satisfied with this armor”

“Is it sealed?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“It is. It’ll take a few more days for it to fully devour the armor’s power, during which I won’t be sensed by the Heavenly Emperor” Xie Dao Ling replied.

Boom——-

The tremor outside was gradually growing more intense.

The Heavenly Emperor is coming!

Gu Qing Shan waved his hand to grab the Key of the Wind and said: “To the Human realm”

[Ten days of lifespan) the Key of the Wind answered.

“Deal. By the way, choose somewhere that’s a bit peaceful please” Gu Qing Shan replied.

[No problem!)

The green key touched the void of space and instantly opened another gate of light.

“Shifu, let’s go” Gu Qing Shan said.

“Is this a treasure of the Boundless Void?” Xie Dao Ling asked while observing the Key of the Wind.

“Yes, it’s a Saint Pillar of the Boundless Void” Gu Qing Shan confirmed.

Xie Dao Ling pondered: “No wonder I couldn’t destroy that book when I tried to earlier, only able to help you cancel out your debt”

She entered the gate together with Gu Qing Shan.

The two of them vanished from the secret

room.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

The sound of battle outside gradually subsided.

A few moments later.

The Heavenly Emperor’s furious roar echoed through the entire world.

“They’re gone? HOW COULD THAT BE!?”

The Human realm.

On the peak of a tall mountain.

Gu Qing Shan and Xie Dao Ling both reappeared.

“Hoh—– we’re safe”

Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief. Xie Dao Ling didn’t say anything and instead turned her gaze towards the night sky. “What’s the matter, Shifu?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.

“The main Five Elements have been established. Following this, the purgatory of the mutated Five Elements will appear, and the Chosen Saints will need to face and triumph against the chaotic purgatory” Xie Dao Ling replied.

“—–Wind-Lightning-Light-Dark-Sound?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Indeed, take a look” Xie Dao Ling pointed at the sky.

A sea of stars had appeared in the night sky.

The numerous stars in the sky were descending towards the ground as shooting stars.

The world itself was lit up as bright as day by the countless shooting stars.

All the shooting stars were silently crashing into the ground, forming a series of bottomless holes.

“All of these holes will lead into the Elements Purgatory, where a number of issues that the Samsara cannot deal with currently reside—— this is also a trial of the Samsara for its Chosen Saints” Xie Dao Ling explained.

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

Suddenly, both of their expressions changed as they turned towards a certain valley.

A monster whose entire body was clad in ghostly blue flames had appeared from below the ground, currently heading towards the crash site of a shooting star.

Xie Dao Ling pondered for a bit before continuing:

“Qing Shan, aside from mortals and cultivators, there are also countless ghosts, demons, devils, and unnatural creatures. They were originally scattered throughout the various Samsara fragments, but now that the Samsara has fused back together, they will reemerge”

“Unnatural creatures? Are they going to wage war against humanity?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“They have a relationship of mutual disdain with humanity, but they’ve already known a few secrets of the Elements Purgatory—— with their participation, it would be much easier to triumph over the Elements Purgatory” Xie Dao Ling explained.

“How does the Elements Purgatory compare to the Elements War Zone?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

la

“It is much more dangerous!” Xie Dao Ling answered.

She said with a serious tone: “Dear disciple, it is now time. You need to summon all the Chosen Saints under my tutelage so that we can face the Elements Purgatory together!”

Gu Qing Shan’s expression froze.

“Shifu, the situation of our sect is a bit unique”

“Huh? What do you mean by that?”

“There are very few of us”

“—–It is understandable, even my present life incarnation would rather take fewer disciples than to take disciples carelessly. How many of us are there in total?”

“Five”

“...Only five?”

“Yes”

“Five Chosen Saints, that is too few...”

“Shifu, I mean you only took five disciples. As for Chosen Saints, I suspect that I’m the only

one”

“...It will be quite difficult with you alone”

Gu Qing Shan thought briefly and said: “Shifu, give me a moment”

“What do you plan to do?” Xie Dao Ling asked.

“I actually arrived at the Samsara quite late, so I’m quite obsolete compared to the others, and I don’t know a lot of things; Shifu had also been sealed away for countless years—— neither of us has any reliable information to work with” Gu Qing Shan commented.

“Among other issues” Xie Dao Ling acknowledged this.

“That is why I also need to prepare by gathering some information first”

“How do you intend to do that?”

“It’s just an idea, but it’s worth a try”

After saying that, Gu Qing Shan walked until he was a few dozen meters away from Xie Dao Ling. He silently used (Heavenly Decree]

——[Initiate Tribulation)! In the sky, masses of black clouds quickly gathered and began to circle above Gu Qing Shan.

Xie Dao Ling kept silent and decided not to do anything yet.

Countless wisps started to appear around the void of space.

The sound of rustling could be heard from all around him.

As if something had just arrived.

And quite a few of them as well!

Xie Dao Ling’s gaze became focused and shouted: “That is a Wind Tribulation!”

Malicious laughter was suddenly heard from the clouds: This is indeed a Wind Tribulation. Ahahaha, this unlucky brat decided to face his Tribulation right as we have the initiative, he’s dead meat!

Gahahaha, that’s right, he’s dead meat!

Countless voices followed up.

The Tribulation clouds began to part.

Numerous ferocious-looking evil creatures descended from above, standing to surround Gu Qing Shan.

Their killing intent was so great that it reached the sky——–

And it disappeared all at once!

Hah? Isn’t this old Gu? Jan evil creature, whose entire body was engulfed in flames, commented.

A large shadow suddenly stood straight up from the ground and started observing him:

(You’re right, it is him! ]

Ah, old Gu, it’s been quite a few years ] [ That’s right, I’ve been trying to reach you for so many years for a drink, where have you been? ]

A gorgeous-looking man emerged from the wind with a hearty laugh: Gu, my man, where have you been getting rich lately? How come you only called on us brothers after the Samsara had gotten reset?

——this was an Allure Devil.

Gu Qing Shan also laughed heartily and began greeting the evil creatures by name.

He had gotten acquainted with numerous evil creatures both during his time in Triste’s collection world, as well as the Age of Old.

“Business has been really busy lately so I haven’t had time up until now, please don’t hold it against me” he said apologetically.

Hearing him say that, everyone smiled.

Although they would still be fine with or without Gu Qing Shan, he was someone who knew both to talk the talk and walk the walk, a real pleasure of a person to be with.

——occasionally, he could even set up a huge score for everyone to enjoy.

Who wouldn’t be willing to stay on the good side of such a friend?

“I’ll be frank, the Elements Purgatory just opened, want to join me for some fun?” Gu Qing Shan shrugged and stated.

[ Is it profitable? Ja Flame Demon asked.

All the evil creatures went silent, staring closely at Gu Qing Shan.

“Of course, I’ve never made anyone make a useless trip, have I?” Gu Qing Shan casually replied. Xie Dao Ling felt her face slightly freezing up while standing at a distance.

——-this kid doesn’t have a single supporter in the sect, is completely clueless about the Samsara, and he doesn’t even know how to enter the Elements Purgatory yet.

But he’s already making promises with a bunch of evil creatures.

Does he take them all for fools?

Xie Dao Ling turned toward the evil creatures.

Only to see them all cheering——

[ Let’s go, let’s go! We’re all going with you! ]

It’s always profitable to go with brother Gu, haha!

That’s right, to commemorate today’s reunion, let’s have a party first!

[ Let’s all have a drink, then head into the Elements Purgatory! ]

Alright! ] [We’re all going home wasted today! ]

The evil creatures called out one after another.

A cheery atmosphere filled the air.
