The world of Gloom Woodland.
The fog had descended.
Gu Qing Shan walked out from the layers of fog.
"Where did you send the little guy?" Crow asked.
"Void City" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Now we can fight without worry" Crow smiled.
"Yeah, I don't think there's anything wrong with the little guy" Gu Qing Shan commented.
After a few tests, whether it was carrying him upside down or threatening him with a sword, the baby was still a baby.
Even during the battle, when Gu Qing Shan was carrying the baby, ready to be assassinated or ambushed at any moment, the baby still didn't move.
After Buttercup carried him, she nodded to me, signaling that there's nothing wrong.
Don't worry.
The two of them looked around.
Complete ruin.
Blue Mountain city had been completely destroyed.
Although the quest told them to warp away, both of them were a bit unwilling.
"Gloom Woodland's capital city was home to many races, it was powerful and had the support of many Professionists, I really don't understand how it could be broken through so quickly" Crow was in deep thought.
"How about we take a look?" Gu Qing Shan suggested.
He also had a lot of doubts in his mind.
Crow thought for a bit, then said: "If we go, we might — — -"
"Shh!" Gu Qing Shan hurriedly gestured for him to stop.
"What is it?" Crow was confused.
"With that mouth of yours, anything you say can easily go wrong, it's best if you don't say it" Gu Qing Shan said.
Crow shook his head: "I've already gone to a testing organization to check, I don't actually have any sort of spiritual speech ability, nor do I have any Fate-type spells, so this is all a coincidence"
"A coincidence?" Gu Qing Shan doubtfully asked.
"Yes, a coincidence" Crow smiled, "For example, what I'm saying right now is that we're about to be surrounded by countless monsters"
Gu Qing Shan drew her swords and nervously observed their surroundings.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Nothing else happened.
"See, coincidences only happen occasionally, they're not real abilities" Crow shrugged.
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief: "That's good, then let's head to the capital city and see if we can find any information"
"Go!"
The two of them soared into the clouds and flew toward Monarch City.
They hurried on with all their might and finally saw King City after fifteen minutes.
The two of them landed.
This place was still in ruins.
The entire King City was completely destroyed by the Apocalypse.
Unlike Blue Mountain City, there were not many corpses here, and most of them were high-grade professions.
The civilians had all been moved to the Dark Rock Star.
Gu Qing Shan released her spiritual sense and carefully scanned the entire city, trying to find some clues.
"There's a corpse we need to take a look at" Gu Qing Shan said.
"Very well" Crow replied.
The two of them flew all the way and arrived in front of a corpse.
"I know him, he's the librarian of the Void Library" Crow whispered.
The Void Library was a branch of Void City that focused on collecting knowledge, similar to the Spire Keeper Association of the 900 million World Layers.
Gu Qing Shan squatted down, pried open the corpse's hand, and took out a leaf.
"The leaves of the Tree of Knowledge are the hardest to decay, let's take a look at what's written here" Crow said.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the leaf and muttered:
"These monsters are all extinct species, they shouldn't have — — -"
There were only so many words, and they looked extremely messy, as if this Professionist had hurriedly scribbled them out of extreme danger.
Before he could finish, he died.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the corpse, only to see that the corpse's expression was still frozen with shock and disbelief.
It was as if he was still in a state of shock right before his death.
Extinct species …
Gu Qing Shan and Crow both fell into thought.
Crow spoke up: "If that's the case, the casters and warriors we ran into earlier seemed to belong to an extinct civilization"
"What about the Giant?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"I only know a bit about it, we'll need to go to the Void Library to verify this" Crow replied.
Gu Qing Shan sighed: "That won't do, there are too many possibilities, we need more information"
Crow replied: "That's easy, let's head to the Gloom Obsidian Star and meet up with the other Professionists, we'll discuss each other's information"
"How far away is the warp point from us?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
Crow pointed in a certain direction: "There's still a self-destructing warp point left outside the city, we can use it once — — with such a short distance, there's no need to be afraid even if the Apocalypse appears"
Boom!!!
The ground trembled.
A sandstorm kicked up.
Yellow sand filled the sky, obscuring everything.
The world fell into darkness.
From the boundless yellow sand, monsters appeared one after another.
As far as the eye could see, there was no end to the monsters, they had practically filled the entire city, even the wilderness outside the city was filled with them.
They silently surrounded Gu Qing Shan and Crow.
Gu Qing Shan and Crow were stunned.
They couldn't win against them at all.
"Crow" Gu Qing Shan called out.
"Hm?" Crow anxiously observed the seemingly endless monsters.
"I suggest that you re-examine your Spirit of Speech"
After saying so, Gu Qing Shan abruptly let go of the twin swords Heaven and Earth and drew the Six Paths Great Mountain sword.
— — -at first, I thought there would only be two monsters, but now, an endless horde of monsters had appeared.
Could it be that the monsters from before were only used to deceive?
That makes sense.
Once the monsters understand enough about a Professionist, they would suddenly appear in large numbers, using their absolute advantage in both strength and numbers to directly crush the Professionist to death!
Some of them could destroy defensive equipment, some could absorb skills, and even many other abilities, so no matter who they were up against, they would be able to swarm and eliminate them.
Any general would know that war was a battle of numbers, using absolute advantage to defeat the minority.
This was a complete strategy!
Gu Qing Shan felt a chill running down her spine.
The Apocalypse. They're using the Law of War against Professionists!
No.
This isn't the Apocalypse.
This isn't the Apocalypse!
But if this isn't the Apocalypse, what is it?
Gu Qing Shan forced herself to remain calm, quickly thinking, observing, and pondering.
What now?
There's no time — — -
"I'm going to go all out today!!!"
Crow drew his rapier and shouted at the horde of monsters.
At the same time, he sent telepathy to Gu Qing Shan: "Hurry! Use that fog warp from before to teleport us away, otherwise we'll really die here!!! "
Gu Qing Shan didn't seem to notice at all and pointed the limpid autumn water sword in her hand forward.
Countless tiny sword phantoms erupted from the sword, clashing over a million times in the blink of an eye!
Oong oong oong oong oong — — -
Boom!!!
Within the ruins, a sea of flames once again descended.
This wasn't the flames of the Apocalypse, but rather the power of the Divine Sword's spells.
This swordsmanship was performed by the Six Paths Great Mountain sword, so no spells or defensive techniques could stop it.
In an instant, all the spells and spells unleashed by the monsters were extinguished by the flames.
— — -the [Flame Slash] was called [Parting Fire], the first strike of the Divine Skill!
The Asura divine sword required Soul Points, so this strike from Gu Qing Shan unleashed endless flames that enveloped the entire city.
His Soul Points were quickly dropping.
Without any time to feel sorry for his Soul Points, Gu Qing Shan swung her sword again.
The raging flames on the sword had completely disappeared.
A layer of white frost began to spread from the sword, slowly spreading like an invisible blizzard that swept across the entire city.
The second strike of the Divine Skill, [Frost Edge], [Sword of Extinction]!
— — [Frost Edge], immobilizing all living beings, this was the Divine Skill of [Sword of Extinction]!
The deep white frost began to spread, quickly covered every monster's body, then spread to every monster in the city.
The monsters couldn't move.
"Go! To the warp point! "Gu Qing Shan shouted.
He had tried it before — — - when he was in the middle of an Apocalypse, even if he teleported away, the Apocalypse would still follow him.
I can't bring this Apocalypse to Void City!
Hearing him say that, Crow immediately moved.
The two of them, one in front and one behind, desperately flew towards the warp point.
Their speed was like two streaks of lightning.
"Go!"
Crow shouted, then placed the ID card at the designated spot.
Gu Qing Shan also quickly placed her ID card there.
The warp point was a hidden meadow, so as it sensed the two ID cards, it was activated.
"We need 5 breaths' worth of time" Crow loudly said.
"Alright, we'll stand guard for a bit longer" Gu Qing Shan said.
Not too far away, the monsters within the thick layer of ice began to tremble.
They were desperately trying to break free from this Divine Sword.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Dozens of monsters with the most powerful presences broke free from the ice seal.
Crow wielded his rapier, swung it forward, and muttered: "Your deaths now shall be reaped by my future self!"
Rumble rumble!
The monsters all fell to the ground.
Crow cautiously stared at the fallen monsters.
The monsters were still struggling on the ground, but quickly died.
Crow sighed in relief.
"I didn't see you attack" Gu Qing Shan said.
Crow hurriedly said: "My future self will kill them, if my future self failed, they wouldn't have died just now, I would have been the one to die!"
Gu Qing Shan didn't have time to say anything else and turned her gaze towards the city.
Only to see that the countless monsters had begun to break free from the ice.
— — there were simply too many of them. Although Gu Qing Shan had the Asura Divine Skill, the Six Paths Great Mountain sword, as well as a large amount of Soul Points to support him, he couldn't control them for too long!
"Two breaths' worth of time left!" Crow shouted.
"That technique of yours is too dangerous, let me do it!" Gu Qing Shan said.
Saying so, he put his sword away.
Crow gave him a strange look.
— — -if you want to attack, just do it, why did you put your weapon away?
Gu Qing Shan's killing intent surged.
Oong!
A resounding sound resounded across the entire world.
Wind, sand, the city, and the monsters were all blown away by this sound.
— — Mind Sword, [Sun Moon Eclipse]!
As soon as Gu Qing Shan unleashed this attack, he didn't have time to see the result. The warp point on the ground suddenly gave off layers of white light that enveloped both him and Crow.
The white light turned into a gate that sucked them inside.
