Worlds' Apocalypse Online

Chapter 1110: Circulation of Life And Death

Countless blades of sword will, each as thin as a strand of hair, weaved together throughout this space, forming an inescapable net.

—Secret Art, [Silver Star]!

A huge gust of wind appeared within this darkness.

The net of light spread in the wind, decimating everything within its reach.

Severed limbs, heads, torso, and innards scattered all over the sky.

The stiffly standing cultivators were being erased in troves.

However, the remaining cultivators remained still without any reactions.

They coldly stood there, staring at the flying sword in the sky with a strange expression.

“So it is you, the missing Devil King of Huang Quan!” they spoke in unison.

——-it was as if some entity was borrowing the mouths of these cultivators to talk to Gu Qing Shan.

A second later.

All the severed flesh and blood flew back into the sky, falling into the red gate as they were being silently sucked in.

An eerie red glow then manifested on the gate.

Kiee—–

The gates slowly opened.

Frigid wind filled the space.

Hundreds of armored skeletons wielding various weapons flew out from the gate.

The skeletons were clad in wisp-like flames, all rushing straight towards Gu Qing Shan.

Ghost soldiers of Huang Quan!

The cultivators who were killed by Gu Qing Shan immediately reincarnated into Huang Quan ghost soldiers as they went through the red gate!

The other cultivators displayed eerier grins as they spoke in unison:

“Legend has it that the Devil King of Huang Quan is able to control all dead people. But that sounds like nothing but horse shit to me. Come, let me see just how much of legend can actually be trusted”

Gu Qing Shan completely ignored those words and unleashed a gigantic crescent-shaped white slash.

The ghost soldiers shrieked all at once without dodging and faced the slash head one.

Clank clank clank clank clank clink clink clink clink!

As the white slash struck their bodies, it gave off countless noises of clashing weapons.

The ghost soldiers were stopped by the slash, so they started to exude some Yin aura.

After a short moment, they turned into shadows as the giant white slash passed through bodies and flew away.

The remaining cultivators gloated: “Ghost soldiers can naturally go through all things in this world, I’d like to see how you’re going to deal with that”

As soon as they declared so, Gu Qing Shan as well as the sword in his hand vanished without a trace.

He had reappeared in the middle of all of the cultivators.

“You’re courting death!” the cultivators shouted.

“Aaarggggh!!!!!” Gu Qing Shan suddenly uttered a resounding scream.

Intense gusts of wind erupted from his body, turning into visible dark wind that instantly spread into his surroundings.

The power of the Demon Dragon’s blood!

In the past, to prevent this violent power from infecting other people, Gu Qing Shan had always worn the Silent Dusk Cloak to obscure his aura.

However, after he saw the wounds that Su Xue Er suffered, Gu Qing Shan had become truly angry, no longer caring about such matters.

Ever since he performed the World Offering Dance, he had completely gotten the Demon Dragon power under his control, thoroughly turning it into his own.

——which meant that Gu Qing Shan could now utilize this power at will!

The masses of black wind went into the cultivators around him, causing their bodies to tremble uncontrollably.

The various spells and techniques in their hands were instantly interrupted.

The violent power of the Demon Dragon had corroded them, modified them.

This was the greatest strength of the Demon Dragon!

This was the power of the most powerful Soul Artifact from the Bygone Era humans!

Neither Gu Qing Shan nor the strongest human Combatant of the Bygone Era were capable of getting rid of this power, their only solution was to rely on the Living Being Sacrificial Dance to slowly dispel it.

So how could these parallel world cultivators possibly know how to deal with it?

Their eyes quickly regained their original clarity, but soon started screaming in pain as they couldn’t endure this power.

Perhaps, after a while of this suffering, they would obtain a seed of the Demon Dragon’s power, massively increasing their cultivation speed, allowing them to unlock new abilities, their overall power increasing at a rapid pace——-

But they won’t have any future.

“Die!”

Gu Qing Shan spat out a single word.

A blinding flower of light bloomed in the air, countless images of swords flashing into existence like sideway arcs of lightning.

Over a thousand of the remaining cultivators were massacred in a single moment!

Countless figures turned into tiny drops of water that swiftly returned to Gu Qing Shan before being absorbed into Gu Qing Shan’s body.

“Aarrhhhh—–”

Gu Qing Shan closed his eyes, unable to keep his screams of pain in check.

As soon as those cultivators were turned into Demon Dragon bloodkins, they were immediately massacred, so their spirit energy, Soul Points, blood power, etc. everything that belonged to them had been completely absorbed and turned into Gu Qing Shan’s power.

Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:

[You’ve killed 1968 cultivators]

[As you used the corrosive power of the Demon Dragon blood, according to Law of the Soul Artifact Demon Dragon, all of their powers have become your own]

[You obtained 800,000 Soul Points]

[Their other types of power will be consumed by the Demon Dragon’s power and continue to strengthen you in the next few days]

Gu Qing Shan quickly skimmed through everything and looked back. historical

The Huang Quan ghost soldiers were hurriedly rushing towards him.

But compared to [Ground Shrink], they were too slow.

「 NO! All of them were my power! 」

A furious voice resounded from the red gate.

From Gu Qing Shan’s observation, he found that it needed to absorb everything of the cultivators in order to convert them into ghost soldiers.

After a single probing attack, Gu Qing Shan immediately used the Demon Dragon’s power in order to corrode the remaining cultivators and turned them into his own.

His tactic changed so quickly that the red gate couldn’t even react.

And now, the red gate could no longer obtain those powers.

「 Souls, return to Huang Quan! 」

A buzzing noise echoed from the red gate.

——-the only thing left in the area were the souls of those cultivators.

Thousands of souls hurriedly fled towards the red gate.

They couldn’t even tell how they were killed just now, so they naturally wanted to escape as far as possible from Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan silently watched this and mattered:

“Since you dared to harm my people, you are not needed in Huang Quan”

He summoned the Devil King Warden Rod.

All the souls froze in the void of space, unable to move a single step.

Dead people must obey the Devil King of Huang Quan, otherwise, their souls will be completely destroyed.

The red gate uttered a resounding roar: 「 Devil King, you dare to act so boastfully! I, the Demon Gate Deity, will ensure you die today! 」

The void of space trembled intensely.

The scenery of the secret passage was slowly becoming transparent and illusory.

——the entire world was becoming illusory.

While another world was slowly manifesting itself.

Divine Skill, [Circulation of Life and Death]!

The sky became gloomy, miasma filled the air, a walled passage made of grotesque jagged rock stood atop a transparent river.

The red gate was situated right in the middle of this walled pass, exuding a piercing red light.

「 Come! All shall enter Huang Quan! Devil King, both you and your people will be trapped here, never to leave ever again! 」

From afar, countless Deities and monsters were taking to the sky.

When Gu Qing Shan looked down, he saw that Su Xue Er and Hazeden’s group had also been pulled into this projected world.

The Earth sword suddenly spoke up: 「 Gu Qing Shan, quickly think of something, this technique is overlapping a projection of that world with this one. Once the technique is completed, the projected world will become real, and we’ll also be forced to remain here for good 」

Gu Qing Shan answered without changing his expression: “I can see that, but I just want to say——”

“This thing actually has the courage to return me to Huang Quan...”

The single-horned skull on top of his scepter started to exude a fearful red glow from its sockets.

Gu Qing Shan shouted: “Regardless of who you are, you shall all wake up right at this moment! Our war is upon us!”

——[Dead Essence]!

With this power, the Huang Quan Devil King could communicate with every dead person in hell regardless of where they were, and also allow the slumbering dead to instantly wake up.

Instantly, every dead person resting in slumber within the 18 layers of hell of this fragment of Huang Quan opened their eyes.

They immediately understood what was happening.

After countless years, the true Ruler of hell had finally shown himself!

Gu Qing Shan swung the Devil King Warden Rod forward and shouted:

“Come, regardless of who used to rule over you and what sins you’ve committed, from this moment on, hell is under MY control!”

——[Breaking Cells]!

This was the divine power to unlock the 18 great prisons – the 18 layers of hell.

Countless dead people manifested all over Huang Quan.

By the power of the Devil King Warden Rod, they had been released from the collapsed hell!

“If someone tries to stop me...” Gu Qing Shan muttered.

The scepter gave off an endless red light, causing the entire world of Huang Quan to tremble.

Right next to the Grand Tie Wei Mountain, the banks of the Forgetting River started to rumble and quake.

———[Samsara Conquest]!

Hell itself began to detach from Huang Quan!

Rumble rumble rumble———-

All 18 layers of hell slowly rose up from the depths of Huang Quan.

Quintillions of dead people uttered the same resounding roar.

“Long live the Devil King!”

“No one can stop the King of Hell!”

At the same time.

Countless fearful voices of Deities resounded at once:

「 Quickly, dispel the [Circulation of Life and Death] technique! 」
