Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 867: The Unfound Location

Gu Qing Shan randomly tossed the jade disk to Luo Bing Li.

He walked up to a wall of the palace, sat down, yawned, and cracked his neck:

“I’ve already made the [Demon King Order] evolve so many times in a row, seeing how this was going to be done soon, I won’t distract myself by doing other things so I’ll leave looking for humanity’s hidden path to you guys”

The God of Frost and Chill stood up from his throne and spoke as Gu Qing Shan silently sent his voice: “Then what are you going to do now? Continue evolving the [Demon King Order]?”

“No, I need to rest a bit. You should know how much work I’ve done, so I need some time to rest and prepare the [Demon King Order]’s next evolution. After that is done, if you still haven’t managed to find something, I’ll join you”

After saying so, Gu Qing Shan leaned on the wall and closed his eyes in meditation.

The God of Frost and Chill looked at him, then flashed a smile of disdain:

“Humans are truly weak creatures, you can’t even handle this level of exercise”

Gu Qing Shan kept his eyes closed and snapped back at him: “Without me, you won’t obtain the power of the [Demon King Order]”

“Bastard, you think you’re so crucial?” the God of Frost and Chill gritted his teeth.

“Speaking like that, do you intend to break off our treaty?” Gu Qing Shan opened one eye and scoffed.

“If I broke off our deal, you are going to die right here and now!” the Divine King shouted in fury.

“If you dared to try that, you will never obtain the power of the [Demon King Order]” Gu Qing Shan coldly replied.

The atmosphere became tense.

“Stop!”

Luo Bing Li cut in and quickly mediated: “Don’t be so rowdy, the power of the [Demon King Order] is crucial, looking into the second path that humanity prepared is also crucial, we should split up. Gu Qing Shan, you rest for now, then finish the evolution of the [Demon King Order]; leave humanity’s second path to us for now, we’ll look through the phantom images within the space vortex”

Hearing that, Gu Qing Shan slowly closed his eyes in assurance.

Luo Bing Li had just expressed her stance.

This was good news.

The God of Frost and Chill sat back down again, still fuming, then suddenly turned towards the figure of light and asked: “What do you think?”

The figure of light went silent briefly before nodding: 「 It’s fine for us to split up, for now, we can indeed hunt two birds at once, I agree with this method 」

“Then...” the God of Frost and Chill contemplated.

「 Your Divine Majesty, you should invoke the power of the entire Divine race right now, let me lead the members of the Divine race in search of humanity’s second path 」the figure of light offered.

“Alright, since you are the only one capable of traveling as you wish through the phantom images, we’ll have to depend on you” the God of Frost and Chill replied.

The figure of light nodded and glanced at Luo Bing Li.

Luo Bing Li triggered the jade disk.

The tunnel heading towards the space vortex opened up again.

The Strength God went out to gather the other Divinities.

A few moments later, the rest of the Divinities of the Divine race had gathered in the Grand Divine Palace.

「 Follow me 」 the figure of light declared.

He went into the space vortex first.

The other Divinities quickly went after him and headed into the space vortex as well.

Luo Bing Li looked at this scene with a complicated expression.

It was only after the figure of light had gone out of sight did she turn back to look at Gu Qing Shan.

Only to see that Gu Qing Shan was leaning completely on the wall with his eyes closed, breathing in a faint and periodic manner.

He actually fell asleep.

At such a crucial moment in time, he actually went to rest.

Luo Bing Li bit her lip, feeling a bit dejected and disappointed.

From the Divine Throne, the God of Frost and Chill walked down step by step and stood in the middle of the audience hall.

This was closer to Gu Qing Shan compared to on the throne, so she would be able to protect him better.

If someone tried to charge into the audience hall, she would also be able to stop them from here.

The God of Frost and Chill glanced at Luo Bing Li and instantly noticed that she was feeling down.

Shannu thought for a bit, smiled, and spoke: “No need to feel dejected, trust gongzi”

While maintaining the jade disk, Luo Bing Li shook her head: “The situation is getting more and more urgent, yet your gongzi still has the time to be sleeping”

Shannu replied: “Gongzi once told me, when something happens, first you must remain still, after being still you can remain calm, after calming down you can ponder, and after pondering you’ll produce results. If he can still fall asleep at this point in time, you should trust him even more”

Luo Bing Li carefully observed Shannu’s expression and muttered: “So you completely trust him”

Shannu spoke with pride: “Of course, within the quintillion worlds, no one is a match for my gongzi”

They both turned to look at Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan still had his eyes closed.

He seemed to be very deep in his sleep.

At this point, the jade disk vibrated very slightly.

But when the two girls looked at it, they found that it remained still.

...

Darkness.

Boundless, endless darkness.

Gu Qing Shan felt himself being quickly pulled towards a certain direction.

During this process, he couldn’t control his movements at all.

After an unknown amount of time, a ray of light abruptly appeared.

When viewing from the deep darkness, that light seemed like the opening to a tunnel or a cave.

Gu Qing Shan noticed that he was flying at full speed towards that opening.

After another unknown period of time, he gradually approached the glowing opening.

At this point, he could hear the voices of various people arriving from the other side.

“He’s here”

“A human, no mistakes about it”

“Hm, it looks like there weren’t any issues”

“Prepare to catch him”

Following these voices, the light spread out from the opening, pierced through the darkness, and spread onto Gu Qing Shan’s body.

Being engulfed by this light, Gu Qing Shan’s flying speed slowed down.

As the light became more and more blinding, a hand abruptly appeared, caught him and pulled him in.

Heaven and earth turned upside down.

Gu Qing Shan noticed that he had just crashed straight into the ground.

Several powerful weapons that gave off an intense powerful aura were pointed at him to make sure that he couldn’t move.

“Who are you?”

A voice asked.

Gu Qing Shan looked up. historical

Only to see the one who asked was Xie Gu Hong.

Xie Gu Hong’s gaze suggested that he did not recognize him.

Gu Qing Shan glanced around to see that there were other people standing around Xie Gu Hong, all of which were famous great cultivators in the Primordial Heaven Realm.

There are no mistakes.

During the years Gu Qing Shan cultivated in the Barren Cloud Heavenly Palace, he also learnt quite a bit about the cultivation world and more or less knew about these world-famous VIPs.

“My name is Gu Qing Shan” he replied.

“How did you get here” Xie Gu Hong asked again.

Gu Qing Shan explained in more detail: “I followed the hint that’s played when the jade disk is activated”

“Which hint? And what did you understand from it?” Xie Gu Hong continued to question him.

“He who was entrusted, if you betray the entrustment you took on, you shall never arrive at the other world and your dream would never be realized”

Gu Qing Shan appeared to be reminiscing:

“These words that came out from the jade disk reminded me to think about what kind of entrustment did I take on”

“After careful thinking, ever since I came into the phantom images, the most important entrustment I took on was when I turned into your disciple Shen Yang”

Xie Gu Hong kept his eyes on him and said nothing, but his gaze was a lot less cold.

Another great cultivator next to Xie Gu Hong asked: “What was the entrustment you took on?”

Gu Qing Shan replied: “Palace Master Xie entrusted his daughter Xie Dao Ling to me and told me to bring her to the lower realms and take care of her”

“And then what?” Xie Gu Hong followed up on his words and asked.

“This phrase ‘if you betray the entrustment you took on, you shall never arrive at the other world’ actually meant that ‘as long as you remember that you were entrusted with something, you would be able to reach the other world’”

“And the phrase ‘your dream would never be realized’ is hinting that for all of this to happen, a dream is necessary”

“If I’m not wrong, my current location would be right inside a dream. Furthermore, a dream that no one would be able to find”

“What kind of dream do you think this is?” Xie Gu Hong asked.

His swords were no longer pointing at Gu Qing Shan.

The other great cultivators had also put their weapons away.

Gu Qing Shan stood up and slowly spoke: “If this location couldn’t be found by any Divinity, evil creatures of monsters, then it would be because this place isn’t anywhere in the Primordial Heaven Realm or Primordial Wraith Realm, it has already transcended these worlds”

“And since the jade disk told me that I can only reach this place through a dream, the jade disk’s true purpose must be to connect my dream with another person”

“Then, you must’ve already shown me humanity’s true preparations from very early on”

“When you entrusted your daughter to me, there were countless mysterious formations arranged around the ice crystal that surrounded her, and you told me to bring her to the lower realms and take good care of her”

“Which means, this place should be the dream of your daughter, Xie Dao Ling”
