A streak of light broke through the sky and crashed into the ground.
The sandstorm kicked up again.
A figure climbed out from the crater.
— – Su Cher.
Her appearance was a bit ragged, as if she had just gone through a fierce battle as her body was covered in blood.
"Hmph, how troublesome … what's the situation now?"
She looked around and asked.
The other Apocalypses descended from the bronze pillars and stood around her.
"Where's the Demon Emperor?"
The frowning man asked.
"Halfway through the battle just now, he seemed to sense something and suddenly ran away" Su Cher replied.
The man thought for a bit and asked: "How strong is the Demon Emperor?"
"If we keep fighting, I'm afraid I won't be a match for him" Su Cher was a bit unconvinced, but still answered truthfully.
The other Apocalypses exchanged glances.
A monster with 5 heads spoke in unison: "Very good, the Plague End couldn't even take a single hit from him"
They were talking about the Apocalypse that Gu Qing Shan killed right away.
As soon as they said that, the other Apocalypses all felt the same way.
Another Apocalypse followed up: "The Myriad Spirit Decoy technique changed the Insect King, the new Insect King seems to have something else to do and has already left, the Dragon God also ran away when he saw that the situation wasn't looking good"
"So that's what happened, and I was wondering why the Demon Emperor suddenly stopped the battle" Su Cher realized.
The frowning man praised: "As expected of the Demon of World Destruction, you've done very well. If you hadn't stalled the Demon Emperor, the outcome of the battle just now might not have been decided"
"Indeed, it's all thanks to you"
"I also … recognize your strength, Demon of World Destruction"
"We finally managed to stop the three techniques in this battle, you deserve the most credit"
The other Apocalypses all commented.
Su Cher's expression was cold, completely unmoved.
Her expression made the other Apocalypses look up to her even more.
The frowning man replied: "Since we've won this place, I'll immediately arrange for our men to defend this place. Next, the strongest Apocalypses will head to civilization world # 4"
"World Destroyer Fiend, you are qualified to face the strongest Apocalypses with me, we shall act together."
"We are only one world away from the Ultimate Tomb!"
…
"Don't open your eyes."
A thought entered Gu Qing Shan's ears.
— — the will of the Demon Emperor.
"Why don't you open your eyes?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
「 You've just returned and are currently enveloped by a Hibernation Spell. This spell is useless against me, but if you wake up immediately, you'll definitely alert those people. 」 The Demon Emperor spoke telepathically.
Gu Qing Shan closed her eyes and did not move.
He didn't release his Spiritual Force and just used his Spiritual Sense to sense the situation around him.
He felt like he was sitting in a container of ice. Countless pipes were connected to the ice container from all directions, gently sticking to his body and connecting to the nerves and organs around his body.
"Aren't we the Demon Emperor? Why are we still pretending to be asleep? "Gu Qing Shan asked in confusion.
The Demon Emperor's mind replied: 「 Because there's something I need to deal with right now, and it's best not to alert anyone. Give me a few seconds to connect to the entire world — — - wait a minute! Someone's coming. Strange, they're coming directly for you, be careful 」
After saying so, the Demon Emperor's mind fell silent.
Gu Qing Shan's body trembled.
Some sort of Hibernation Spell was dispelled from his body.
He opened his eyes.
Only to see several men and women standing next to him.
Through Li Jiu's memories, he instantly recognized these people.
— — -they were all Li Jiu's family members.
Gu Qing Shan was trembling in excitement, trying her best to suppress her emotions and spoke with a trembling voice: "Ah … it's you … it's been too long since I've seen you …"
"Li Jiu, you're finally awake" a woman said with tears in her eyes.
Her family members gathered around her.
Gu Qing Shan recalled General Yu Feng and his daughter and sighed helplessly.
These people were created by the Demon Emperor's Era civilization, endowed with emotions and memories, specifically used to deceive Sequences.
— — -then I'll just pretend to be polite for now.
He smiled happily and chatted with his family members.
All of a sudden, a line of crimson text appeared in the void of space:
[Attention]
[The Demon Emperor is currently exuding from your body, connecting to the entire Era of civilization]
As Gu Qing Shan sensed it, she felt an invisible layer of something spreading from her body, quickly connecting to the entire world through the tubes connected to her body.
Gu Qing Shan pretended not to know and silently asked the Demon Emperor through her mind:
"What are you doing? I feel like you're hiding something from me "
"The connection is finally complete" the Demon Emperor's mind relaxed and casually replied: "… After countless years of development, this Higher Dimension civilization has reached a level where it can provide me with power"
"Higher Dimension civilization?" Gu Qing Shan confusedly asked.
"Although it's called a Higher Dimension civilization — — - in truth, they can't be considered Higher Dimension. Only I, the creator of this civilization, can be considered a Higher Dimension civilization … they've only completed a certain amount of growth according to the direction of my creation …"
The Demon Emperor's mind appeared a bit triumphant and continued: "And now, it's time to harvest them"
A tentacle emerged from Gu Qing Shan's body, turned into a blurred image, and quickly swept around his body.
Before the family members could react, their chests were ripped open.
"Bastard!"
Gu Qing Shan roared in anger, struggled to stand up, but froze.
He saw that the bodies of his family members were all made of a plastic-like material.
There were no real organs or blood.
The bones, biochemical organs, and electronic components were neatly stacked together, almost like an intricate instrument.
"All of this is fake, don't be deceived by my civilization" the Demon Emperor's voice resounded.
"Then — — what about my family members?" Gu Qing Shan anxiously asked.
The Demon Emperor replied: "Let me take a look …"
His voice went silent.
Lines of crimson text quickly appeared on the highest echelon UI:
[The Demon Emperor has taken full control of the Era civilization and connected to all other golem civilizations]
[The Demon Emperor's tentacles buried deep underground in all golem civilizations have been activated]
[All living beings of the golem civilizations have been absorbed by the tentacles]
[All golem civilizations have been destroyed]
[The Demon Emperor's civilization has also been absorbed]
[Absorption complete]
[The Demon Emperor's civilization has been destroyed]
[At this point, all civilizations related to the Demon Emperor have been destroyed]
Gu Qing Shan's heart trembled as she read this.
That was too fast — — -
The Demon Emperor only took a few breaths' worth of time to destroy all civilizations related to him.
It was so fast that it was incomprehensible.
Gu Qing Shan couldn't help but silently ask: "Echelon, how did he destroy all civilizations in such a short amount of time?"
Lines of explanation appeared on the highest echelon UI:
[According to the backend's feedback, the following results have been obtained:]
[For countless years, the Demon Emperor's tentacles had been buried deep beneath every civilization]
[These tentacles would sense the location of living beings and silently grow, avoiding the civilization's structures and exploration, instead tightly surrounding any living beings]
[When needed, the tentacles would be able to use the manipulation power that the Era civilization had previously set up to swiftly control all living beings, forcing them to not resist, then all the tentacles would break through the ground and begin to absorb power]
[Because of that, the Demon Emperor's tentacles' power absorption process would only take a very short amount of time to complete]
Gu Qing Shan's heart pounded as she read this.
What kind of method is this!
After countless years of operation, a civilization was nurtured into an easy harvest model, then used this civilization to conquer other civilizations — — -
— — and at the very last moment, completely absorbed all civilizations!
Everything … was destroyed.
While Gu Qing Shan was thinking that, the void of space broke apart as another tentacle descended.
It was the tentacle that was hidden on the battlefield.
The Demon Emperor's inner sight cheerfully replied: "Indeed, the majority of the corpses have been absorbed, the Apocalypse has already begun to heavily guard that world, this should be enough"
The tentacle flew back and intertwined with the other tentacles.
Following that — —
An overwhelming amount of power descended upon Gu Qing Shan's body.
"Ugh — — aaaaah!"
Gu Qing Shan roared in anger, but he still endured the power surging through his body and shouted: "Where are my family members? Have you found them yet? "
The Demon Emperor's inner sight replied: "Family members? Ah — — right, I want to find your family members for you "
"But you're not strong enough right now, after you become stronger, we'll go to the Higher Dimension together and do our best to find your family members, what do you say?"
"Really?" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Really, right now, we need to obtain the final power of the Human Tomb … trust me, your power will be enough to break through the Apocalypse's blockade and fight for the treasures of the Human Tomb" the Demon Emperor's inner sight replied.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Once we obtain the items of the Human Tomb — — -"
The Demon Emperor's tentacle cut him off: "Never mind helping you find your family members, I can even help you create your original world!"
"Very well, it's a promise!"
Gu Qing Shan seemed to sigh in relief and solemnly replied.
