Streaks of light passed through the void of space and headed straight for the fog.
— — inside the fog, the only thing visible was a rocky beach that stretched for several hundred kilometers.
Those streaks of light all landed on the rocky beach and quickly flew inside.
The rocky beach was the only entrance to the Dark Continent.
If one entered the fog from any other place, they would quickly lose their sense of direction. No matter how they moved, they would be further and further away from the Dark Continent.
Gu Qing Shan hid far away in the fog, cautiously watching this scene.
— — the moment the King of Eternal Destruction died, all the spirits in the Chaos sensed this.
They all rushed here, wanting to enter the Dark Continent and find the King of Eternal Destruction's Chaos Wonder.
— — no one could stop these Spirits of Eternal Destruction.
Even the mission to kill Gu Qing Shan was thrown to the back of their minds.
Gu Qing Shan silently smiled.
This is a chance.
His gaze slowly moved towards the depths of the fog.
The Dark Continent — —
Looking through the fog, he could only see the edge of the continent.
It seemed to be as big as a world.
Vast.
Mysterious.
Gu Qing Shan waited for a while longer. Suddenly, he turned into a burly man.
The man lightly moved, instantly passing through the fog and entering the Dark Continent.
He landed at the edge of the continent, standing among countless rocks and looking around.
There were too many Spirits of the Apocalypse here, so no one noticed him.
Those spirits were all heading towards the center of the continent, not wasting any time at the edge of the continent.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at it and silently recalled the King of Eternal Destruction's words.
"… I placed it at the most obvious place on the island …"
The most obvious place.
Where would be considered the most obvious place?
Gu Qing Shan looked up and saw a vast expanse of yellow sand not too far away.
His inner sight extended for several tens of thousands of miles. After passing through the yellow sand, he could see small towns.
After a few tens of thousands of miles, he could see a majestic city.
All the buildings were made of black bricks.
Gu Qing Shan's inner sight scanned through several million square kilometers — —
He saw many strange places.
In short, the entire world was black. Buildings of various styles were also black. They displayed the traces of various civilizations.
But there were no living creatures.
Strictly speaking, this was quite an eerie sight, but their greed for the [Eternal Destruction] Authority had obscured the vision of all the spirits.
They fought with each other and headed toward the center of the continent at their fastest speed. They entered many cities, small towns, and mysterious buildings, wanting to investigate the mysterious items on the Darkness Continent.
What was strange was that any spirit that entered a city would immediately disappear.
The entire world maintained a strange deathly stillness.
Gu Qing Shan pondered for a few moments, then stood still.
On this continent, there was something very wrong with every single place.
But when it came to the "most conspicuous place", he really couldn't find it.
Come to think of it, the King of Eternal Destruction's attitude at that time was very firm.
It seemed certain that the secret it had passed on before its death would be deciphered, and that the apostles of Chaos would be able to find the "most conspicuous" place.
Why did it have such confidence?
Gu Qing Shan fell silent and took a few steps back. With a leap, she left the Darkness Continent and returned to the endless fog.
She looked toward the Darkness Continent again.
The entire continent was covered by the fog and couldn't be seen in its entirety. Only the rocky beach was exposed outside the fog, making it easier for others to find the entrance to the Darkness Continent.
Gu Qing Shan's mind raced.
Could it be —
This rocky beach was probably the "most eye-catching place".
If one were to look at it from the Darkness Continent, it was actually very ordinary.
But outside the Darkness Continent, one could only see it — it was really the only conspicuous place.
If it was really this rocky beach —
It was hundreds of kilometers long. Where was the King of Eternal Destruction's Chaos item?
Gu Qing Shan landed on the rocky beach again. She spread out her divine thoughts and soon covered the entire rocky beach.
This place was covered in shattered rocks, and it was extremely messy and revealed an ancient aura of the passage of time.
Suddenly, Gu Qing Shan noticed something.
Amidst the rubble, there was an empty space that was about three square meters in size.
This empty space was close to the edge of the fog. It looked very inconspicuous, but when placed among the other rocks, it was very conspicuous.
Gu Qing Shan's figure flashed and landed on the empty space.
In the blink of an eye —
A shrill laughter came from underground.
"Hahahaha, found it! Found it! "
A line of words flashed in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes.
"You found the Chaos item of the Darkness Continent. Capture it immediately to prevent any changes!"
Gu Qing Shan crouched down without hesitation, reached his hand into the sand, and caught something in his hand.
When he grasped the object, the sand which had concealed it retreated, and the object was revealed in its true form.
It was a palm.
To put it more accurately, it was an existence that had its wrist pierced by a wooden stick.
His entire palm was as pure and flawless as jade, and it looked like it was made of —
"Just like a human hand, isn't it?"
A voice came from the palm.
Before Gu Qing Shan could say anything, lines of glowing text appeared in front of his eyes.
[You've obtained the King of Eternal Destruction's Chaos item: The Hand of Destruction]
[As you possess [Worlds Apocalypse Online – Darkness] and have found the hiding place of this item, the Chaos item: The Hand of Destruction has accepted you as its new master]
[You have become the new ruler of the Darkness Continent]
Below the War God UI, the icon representing [Chaos item] lit up.
It displayed two treasures.
First, the Sign of Vengeance.
Second, the Hand of Destruction.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the two items on the UI and was a bit surprised.
Is … this … simple?
"Simple?" The hand scoffed: [If it weren't for the King of Eternal Destruction's message, I wouldn't be hiding here — — I would be hiding in the countless prisons of the Darkness Continent, where no Spirit of Eternal Destruction would be able to find me!]
"Prisons?"
[Indeed, the King of Eternal Destruction represents Primal Chaos, and the Darkness Continent is his throne, representing the power of Primal Chaos, suppressing all monsters that are too powerful and forcing them into eternal slumber — — - if no one controls me for a long time, those monsters will awaken, wreak havoc within Primal Chaos, or even return to their own era]
"Can't the King of Eternal Destruction kill them?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[The King of Eternal Destruction can't win against them, he can only use the power of Primal Chaos to gather on me to suppress them] the hand replied.
"So that's how it is" Gu Qing Shan slowly digested this information.
The hand continued: [— — which means you came at the right time, otherwise, if those incomprehensible monsters managed to escape, it would be very troublesome]
"Wait a minute, you know what I'm thinking?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[I only need to use a bit of force to find out — — please, I'm the scepter of the King of Eternal Destruction — — now that you've become the new King of Eternal Destruction — — what do you plan to do after ascending to the throne?] the hand asked.
"I came here in a hurry, so I didn't think too much, the only thing I want to do is to prevent the other spirits of Primal Chaos from obtaining you" Gu Qing Shan truthfully replied.
[Then what do you want to do now?] the hand asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied: "Then … I want to defeat the evil demons"
The hand shook its head, as if discouraged: [I really can't do that, didn't you see that the previous King of Eternal Destruction was already done for?]
Another voice came: [That's not necessarily true]
A sword appeared behind Gu Qing Shan's back.
— — the Delimitation sword.
The hand wasn't shy at all and asked: [Why not?]
The Delimitation sword pointed at Gu Qing Shan with its tip and answered: [He is the Apostle of Primal Chaos]
[Apostle?]
The hand screeched, continuously changing its form and made various panicked gestures, asking: [Is he really an Apostle?]
[In the flesh] the Delimitation sword replied.
The hand turned around, lightly pointed its index finger at Gu Qing Shan.
Boom — —
A golden waterfall manifested behind Gu Qing Shan's back, then slowly dissipated into the void of space.
The hand raised its thumb: [Very well, a more brutal master has finally arrived, if your wish is to defeat the evil demons — — -]
"What do you mean?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[Even with the power of an Apostle, as well as the position of the King of Eternal Destruction, he still wouldn't be able to defeat the evil demons] the hand lowered its head, sighing.
Gu Qing Shan smiled and asked: "What if that's not all?"
The hand raised its hand again: [Could there be other powers?]
[All the spirits of Primal Chaos within the entire Primal Chaos have banded together to fight against the evil demons] Gu Qing Shan replied.
[That's impossible, after the King of Eternal Destruction was defeated, they had already surrendered and are currently hunting you everywhere — — in truth, if it weren't for the King of Eternal Destruction's Authority, they might have already found you and fought you to the death] the hand replied.
"… But what benefits would they gain from joining the evil demons?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"Existence," the palm spat out two words.
"I see, but I've still decided to give it a try and have them band together to fight against the evil demons] Gu Qing Shan replied.
The hand pulled back, lightly shook its index finger: [Hah, you're an Apostle of Primal Chaos, don't be so naïve — — what do you have to convince them to give up on killing you? What do you have to unite them and fight for the sake of Primal Chaos like you?]
Gu Qing Shan replied: "I don't need to unite them"
The hand said: [Then you — — -]
"If they're all on this Eternal Destruction Continent, then we'll just kill them all, that way, all of their powers will belong to me] Gu Qing Shan said.
The hand paused, muttering: "I've never heard of such a method of uniting others … but it seems to be very effective"
[His method has always been the most effective] the Delimitation sword replied.
The hand thought for a few moments, then continued: [Your idea is quite good — — - but there's still one last problem]
"What is it?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
[Even if you inherit the King of Eternal Destruction's power, you still wouldn't be able to win against so many Spirits of Eternal Destruction, how do you intend to obtain their power?] the hand asked.
"Kill them all" Gu Qing Shan replied.
[But you alone can't win against them] the hand said.
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: "Just now, you said — — the monsters that are suppressed deep within the Dark Continent are very powerful?"
The hand suddenly froze.
A few moments later, it slowly made a 'I love you' gesture and said:
[… What a ruthless person, I'm starting to like you]
