The barren wasteland.
The black shadow in the sky was looking down at Gu Qing Shan.
The swords in Gu Qing Shan's hands gave off a cautious ring, but he casually tossed them into the void of space behind him to hide them.
「 Ahahaha, after so much trouble, I've finally gotten you out! 」 he laughed.
The black shadow's hand stopped, unable to unleash its attack.
"Welcome to the real world" Gu Qing Shan shrugged.
The black shadow stayed silent for a few moments, then lightly descended from the sky and stood in front of Gu Qing Shan.
The real world …
He tried to step on the dirt beneath his feet.
「 What time is it now … exactly? 」 the black shadow asked.
「 This is actually very unfair — — just look, you didn't tell me anything at first, but now you want to know the current time from me 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
The black shadow's voice abruptly turned cold: 「 Answer me properly and you'll be able to live a bit longer 」
Gu Qing Shan helplessly replied: "Fine, the current time is the Fire Era, Year 367, 5th day of the Winter month, 5 PM sharp"
The black shadow fell silent, then asked again after a few moments: 「 Then where is the real me right now …? 」
「 The real you is dead 」 Gu Qing Shan replied.
「 Ah? 」 the black shadow asked.
「 I killed you 」 Gu Qing Shan declared.
「 With just you? 」 the black shadow didn't believe her.
Gu Qing Shan replied: 「 Of course it wasn't just me, there were a total of five of us, each representing the will of Chaos. When we all descended together, it meant that Chaos was going to use everything it had to deal with you — — which is why you died 」
He then added: 「 By the way, I'm the weakest among us 」
— — since both sides were naturally opposed to one another, it was only natural for one side to be defeated in battle.
The black shadow said nothing.
Gu Qing Shan stared at it and spoke with a light and slow tone: 「 If you were truly that powerful, you would most likely be able to tell that the technique that triggered the illusion of the past didn't belong to me 」
「 Indeed, that technique does not suit your nature 」 the black shadow replied.
"That was something I borrowed from the other Apostles, all for the sake of allowing you to reappear" Gu Qing Shan replied.
"Why?" the shadow asked.
"Because I'm tired of being the Apostle of Primal Chaos, I want to rely on you and become one of you" Gu Qing Shan said.
The black shadow was silent for several breaths, then shook his head and said, "What a pity …"
"What?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
"We have already decided that we will never make the same mistake again, so you should just die," the black shadow said.
It held out its hand —
"Wait a minute!" Gu Qing Shan shouted, "Could it be that you once accepted a defector like me? Then why can't you accept another me? "
"You don't need to know" the shadow said.
Its body suddenly emitted a strange aura. At the same time, the twin swords on Gu Qing Shan's back immediately appeared.
Gu Qing Shan did not make a move.
He just looked at her quietly.
The black figure formed a seal with his hands and activated a certain technique.
From the void of space, numerous screens of light manifested and quickly formed something similar to a Rubik's Cube.
— — Demonic Art, Rubik's Cube!
The black shadow shouted: "Come out, kill him for me!"
More Rubik's Cubes manifested.
They spun and flickered in a frenzy, displaying millions of worlds in front of Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan clasped his hands behind his back and stood still.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths.
Time passed.
Among the countless worlds, not a single expert flew out.
On the desolate and desolate land, there was still only the black shadow and Gu Qing Shan.
"What … is going on?"
The black shadow was confused.
He looked at the Rubik's Cube behind him, only to see that the screens of light were showing the scenes of the destroyed worlds.
No one.
No life.
No power that could be used.
It was now that Gu Qing Shan spoke: "So that's how it is …"
The black shadow abruptly turned to him and shouted: "Speak, what do you know!?"
Gu Qing Shan crossed his arms and slowly replied: "— — -the illusory world has already disappeared, even if you can return to the real world, you won't be able to bring out the worlds that once existed from the illusory world"
The black shadow trembled and muttered in a low voice: "Those worlds … could it be …"
Gu Qing Shan continued: "Yesterday's Karma will be today's Karma. Just as I told you before, the current you is already dead, the countless worlds and living beings that you created have also fallen into destruction, so you do not have any power to use"
His voice slowly became gentle: "And now, if you do not agree to my conditions, you will also fall into eternal destruction"
The black shadow stared at him and slowly spoke: "Someone like you who doesn't understand anything dares to act so presumptuously in front of true power …"
A black glow appeared from his body and instantly pierced through the ground, turning everything into nothing.
Gu Qing Shan quickly retreated in the void of space, wielding his sword with both hands as he cautiously looked at the other side.
The black shadow had almost completely disappeared, only to turn into a faint mist — — -
The mist manifested into a shadow.
"This is … so that's how it is!" Gu Qing Shan exclaimed in shock.
In the void in front of him, the fog formed by the black shadow materialized into a corpse that reached the heavens and the earth.
A gigantic corpse!
The Tomb of Ruins!
The black shadow was the will of the Tomb of Ruins!!!
Gu Qing Shan tried his best to remain calm, but his body couldn't help but tremble.
— — not only because of the oppressive power the other party exuded, but also because of the many mysteries that had been buried deep in his heart.
But he didn't have time to think about them.
The gigantic corpse made of mist looked down at Gu Qing Shan and spoke in a thunderous voice:
「 Puny brat, you want to know all my secrets by yourself? You dare to threaten me with your level of strength? You've completely overestimated yourself! 」
Gu Qing Shan's expression didn't change at all as he cleared his throat: "Allow me to interrupt, in truth — — you are truly dead — — killed by the corrosion of Chaos"
He raised his hand and displayed a rune in front of the other party.
— — it was a rune filled with the aura of destruction.
Within this ruined tomb, everything had been destroyed, only this rune remained.
[Worlds Apocalypse Online – Destruction]
Indeed, it was the final ending.
「 That 'me' was destroyed, but this' me 'is still alive, it was you who revived me! 」 the gigantic corpse roared in anger.
It dispersed with a loud bang, turning into dense shadows that slowly lit up in the darkness.
Screens of light appeared one after another.
The black shadow stood in the middle of the overlapping screens of light and shouted: 「 Life! 」
Following its voice, countless living beings appeared on the screens of light one after another.
「 Time Flow! 」 the black shadow shouted again.
On the screens of light, different living beings were quickly being born, growing, and reproducing.
Following that, civilization appeared and began to grow stronger.
The black shadow silently retreated, hid behind a screen of light, and slowly retreated.
More and more screens of light appeared to hide its tracks.
If this were to continue, the battle from before would once again — — -
In the blink of an eye, Gu Qing Shan clenched his hand. The rune in his hand abruptly scattered.
"With my power, I summon the power of Chaos, once again pay attention to the source of all destruction for [Worlds Apocalypse Online – Destruction], allowing it to carry out its original duty"
Gu Qing Shan raised his voice.
In the void of space, endless grey fog once again manifested, spreading everywhere.
Not giving up, Gu Qing Shan drew the Six Paths Great Mountain sword and pointed it at the grey fog.
"Come, tell me, how did you win against …"
The power of the Divine Sword, the Secret Key!
[Secret Key: This sword represents the wills of the past Apostles of Chaos, when it is in your hand, it gathers all the authority of the five Apostles of Chaos. Because of that, the entirety of Chaos will listen to your command and reveal all secrets to you]
In an instant, countless lines of glowing text quickly appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan's eyes.
He glanced through them and muttered: "So that's how it was"
There was another [Primordial Sequence] item in this ruined tomb, but because everything here had been destroyed and it had been used up, it hadn't shown up until now.
These two [Primordial Sequence] items were the true reason for the destruction of everything here!
Oom — —
Boundless destructive aura erupted from Gu Qing Shan's body. The four banners behind him gave off a blinding light, fluttering in the wind.
Gu Qing Shan wielded his sword with both hands and roared: "With my Apocalyptic body, I summon [Worlds Apocalypse Online – Death of Gods] that has long since vanished from the depths of Chaos!"
Lines of glowing text flashed by:
[You are the War God of Chaos]
[This is the title of the Lord of Chaos True Spirit, it represents your stance and your true identity]
[Within Chaos, all Profundities are under your command, manifesting as the corresponding Primordial Sequence in accordance with your will to be used by you]
[Primordial Sequence: Death of Gods, has arrived!]
The void of space opened.
Within the boundless golden flow, a rune that he had never seen before descended from above.
It silently landed in front of Gu Qing Shan, turned into the sound of wind, and chased after the grey fog.
The two Primordial Sequences were ready, the runes they manifested fused together, turning into a dense fog that covered the entire area. The power they manifested was reflected in Gu Qing Shan's eyes — — -
[Worlds Apocalypse Online – Divine Body Double Destruction – Demon Suppression]
"Suppress!"
Gu Qing Shan pointed his sword forward.
The void of space became silent.
A gust of wind blew past.
The screens of light that represented worlds all stopped, as if the civilizations within them had entered an extremely slow flow of time.
A gust of wind blew past.
All the screens of light scattered into tiny sprites of light, disappearing into the darkness of nothingness.
Gu Qing Shan's figure flashed, went past these sprites of light, and looked towards the end of the darkness.
The black shadow was pierced by a pair of pitch-black pitchforks, hanging high on the giant wall formed from countless runes.
"This is the power of Chaos, not you" the black figure was unwilling to accept it.
"You're right … my own power isn't enough to win against you, the only thing I can do is follow the path of history and recreate the power of Chaos that was able to win against you — — that way, you will also end up the same way as before" Gu Qing Shan replied.
He held the pitchforks in his hand and continued: "Listen, if you tell me all of your secrets, I might consider changing your fate"
The black figure didn't answer.
Its body slowly turned transparent and dim.
"You would rather fall into eternal destruction than tell me anything?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The black figure slowly faded away, finally turning into nothingness.
Within the fog, only its final words were left:
"It's meaningless for me to tell you anything … Poor fellow."
As soon as it finished.
Other than Gu Qing Shan who was holding the pitchforks, there was nothing else in the void of space.
