World's Apocalypse Online Chapter 1655

Chapter 1655: The essential step!

“War G.o.d UI, I remember you said that it was a Creator G.o.d at the time” Gu Qing Shan silently asked.

[Indeed, the other party’s display was exactly what a Creator G.o.d would be like, so there was no issue with that description] the War G.o.d UI replied.

“But what if they weren’t? Why were you so sure?” Gu Qing Shan asked again.

The War G.o.d UI indifferently replied: [You surely still remember what that G.o.d told you at the time, think back on it now, do you realize anything out of the ordinary?]

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised, then quickly thought back to it.

—-since the heroic spirit girl had pointed out that the G.o.d was fake, a certain veil that had fogged over those particular memories was gradually lifted.

Gu Qing Shan felt a cold sweat on his back.

So much time has pa.s.sed since then.

If I hadn’t already been through so much, if I hadn’t grown to the point I am today, if I hadn’t been made to rethink that moment——–

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t believe that such a terrible secret could still be hidden behind that event.

“There were two statements that now seemed to be suspicious” he silently replied to the War G.o.d UI.

[Which ones?] the War G.o.d UI asked.

“「 If you put in enough effort, shed enough blood and sweat, you will become the now-multi-talented owner of the War G.o.d Authority 」 and 「 We hope this blessing will help you, owner of the War G.o.d Authority 」” Gu Qing Shan replied.

[Do you understand now?] the War G.o.d UI asked.

“A little bit, it was definitely not a G.o.d” Gu Qing Shan replied.

[It never was. But you were so weak at the time, what else did you expect me to tell you?] the War G.o.d UI curtly said.

Gu Qing Shan sighed.

——-after going through many worlds and fighting many battles, never before had anyone known about the existence of the War G.o.d UI.

Not even [Order] and [Chaos] realized the existence of the War G.o.d UI.

However.

That ‘G.o.d’ had somehow directly called out the War G.o.d System’s name!

That ‘G.o.d’ knew that I carried the War G.o.d UI!

[Do not care about what it was, this isn’t the time for you to get distracted—— you’re standing at the separating line of power, it is now a deciding moment of your advancement, finish the business at hand first, then consider other matters!] the War G.o.d UI reminded told him.

Gu Qing Shan had calmed back down.

The girl had also taken a few steps back.

『 Let us begin. As you are an individual with a released soul, you should borrow the power of the Holy Relics to guide the world system to helping you open your cultivation path of Realm Force 』the girl said.

Gu Qing Shan nodded and turned to the four Holy Relics in front of him.

The Holy Relics were all resonating with him.

——they each represent a different Realm Force with unique power, and Gu Qing Shan was capable of obtaining all of them!

Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath and prepared himself to response to the Holy Relic’s resonance, but he suddenly heard a voice calling out:

『 Wait a moment! 』

The Condemnation Codex flew out from his person and opened by itself.

A Card appeared in front of Gu Qing Shan.

——-the beautiful woman with closed eyes.

The Master of the Blood Sea’s Heroic Spirit Hall!

No one expected for her to appear at this crucial point in time.

“What’s the matter?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

『 Did you know that once you choose one of these four paths of Realm Force cultivation, you’d form a permanent bond with this city? 』the woman asked.

——she still exists only on her Card without appearing in person.

The Card was still giving off an unstable glow and scenery as if the conversion still hadn’t been completed.

“Why does that matter?” Gu Qing Shan seemed confused.

The woman scoffed and explained: 『 Of course it matters. You are already the Death G.o.d of the Twin Rivers of Life and Death, as well as the Samsara Devil King of Huang Quan. As someone who belongs to two world systems, do you think you will be able to resolve the troubles of being arbitrarily involved in a third world system? 』

The girl spoke up from one side: 『 That is no matter, our city requires his salvation, I welcome him 』

The woman continued to keep her eyes closed, but her expression was prideful and replied: 『 He can save your city, but he cannot use your Realm Force. Otherwise, he must come to your city’s aid in the future whenever you’re in trouble. Even after his death, the three world systems would still compete over who keeps his soul——- which world system wouldn’t want a Combatant capable of cultivating Realm Force like him? This cannot be done! 』

The girl didn’t say anything in return.

Gu Qing Shan just shrugged and asked: “Your excellency, have you awoken Realm Force before?”

The woman answered: 『 A very long time ago, I’ve already lost my Realm Force 』

Gu Qing Shan paused briefly.

This statement had already encompa.s.sed plenty of hidden past and secrets.

『 It is fine, even if I do not possess Realm Force, since these four Holy Relics had all been activated, I would be able to borrow your power to help you awaken a unique Realm Force of the Twin Rivers of Life and Death 』the woman continued.

She silently sent her voice: 『 You are the Death G.o.d of the River of Death, combined with my guidance and support, you’d definitely be able to awaken an extraordinary path of Realm Force cultivation 』

『——I’ve already witnessed your battles and recognized you as a comrade that I had stepped out like this to guide you, otherwise, I wouldn’t have cared about some normal person 』

Unlike the girl, this Master of the Heroic Spirit Hall had already entered the Condemnation Codex, who would continue to travel with me, not to mention how she was the master of the Blood Sea.

She has an irreconcilable grudge against the Apocalypse.

She is my natural ally.

While Gu Qing Shan was thinking, the woman continued: 『 Or perhaps you’ve already taken a fancy to that little girl? Hmph, she’s the last hope of this world, so once you’ve obtained this world’s Realm Force, you’ll become the one she relies on, her fate would be forever bound to yours. Hah, men… 』

Realizing some sort of danger, Gu Qing Shan instinctively sent his voice: “Thank you, your excellency! I want to awaken the Twin Rivers of Life and Death’s Realm Force”

The woman sounded pleased: 『 That is a truly smart choice. The Twin Rivers of Life and Death world system includes the River of Life, River of Death, as well as the Blood Sea, it is three parts of the same Saint Realm cycle, which is significantly better compared to this world system that had already been crippled by the Apocalypse with only one final city remaining——- now go and tell her clearly 』

Gu Qing Shan explained to the girl.

The girl appeared a bit nervous and hurriedly asked: 『 I can let you utilize the power of the Holy Relics, but after awakening Realm Force, can you help remove the wickedness from my city? 』

“I vow that I will definitely do it” Gu Qing Shan sincerely said.

『 Very well! 』

The girl took a few steps back to express that she will no longer interfere with this.

The eyes-closed woman remained in her Card, but she then pulled out another Card from within her hair.

This was a blood-colored Card that showed the surging Blood Sea on the back while the front was empty.

The woman held the Card with two fingers and curtly grunted: 『 Retrieve! 』

The Holy Crown, the robe, the grain-beater, and the golden apple each gave off a glow before being sucked into the Card.

The four lights became linked into once, forming a moving cycle.

The woman casually said: 『 Gu Qing Shan, when you fought against the Apocalypse in the past, you were very brave, but you actually did not realize what had happened during each of your battles from that point up until now 』

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised and said: “I’m sorry, I don’t understand what you mean”

The woman giggled, then explained: 『 When you fought against the Apocalypse, there were billions of heroic spirits aiding you in the shadows, even the Tianma were fighting alongside you with all their strength, but you simply couldn’t see it 』

『 Additionally, ever since you entered this city, countless virtuous spirits had continued to fight with you, allowing you to turn the repet.i.tive dangerous situations into a safe one. Of course, it was also because of your own superior combat skills, but in the end, you still do not know anything at all about Phase Realms 』

“What is a Phase Realm?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

『 An outer world hidden within another world. It exists together with the main world, but would only ever manifest at certain moments, otherwise, they do not interact or interfere with one another 』the woman explained.

While speaking, she took out a dagger to score her finger and lightly tapped the center of the Card.

A drop of bright red blood fell down.

The four lights from before circled around it.

The woman lightly chanted an incantation.

Under the incantation, the light and blood fused together.

『 In many world systems, there are other powerful paths of Realm Force cultivation that doesn’t concern Phase Realms 』

『 But not for us of the Twin Rivers of Life and Death 』

『 This was because our world system’s unique characteristic was related to Phase Realms 』

『 —–being capable of seeing a Phase Realm is a representation of strength, suggesting that you were at least close to reaching Realm Force 』

Gu Qing Shan suddenly thought of something.

At the time, Shannu remained in the underground of the Wraith realm to summon Li An.

She later reported how Li An said something at the time.

…

『 A barren desolate place in your eyes was, to me, actually a site of inheritance of the Tianma Saint Lord 』

Perhaps——

That was also a Phase Realm?

If that was the case, could the Tianma be significantly more powerful than what I’ve seen suggests?

Gu Qing Shan made a note to be more cautious.

Suddenly, the Master of the Heroic Spirit Hall said:

『 It is done 』

Her face seemed quite tired as she displayed the Card for Gu Qing Shan to see.

The Card now depicted a single bloodshot eye.

『 By using this Card, you will be bestowed the unique characteristics of the River of Life, River of Death, and the Blood Sea 』

『 Your path of Realm Force cultivation will be opened 』

She handed the Card to Gu Qing Shan and flew back into the Condemnation Codex by herself.

『 I’m going to rest for a while, do not disturb me 』

Her voice disappeared.

The Condemnation Codex returned to Gu Qing Shan’s hand.

He put the book away and turned to the Card———

Lines of glowing text quickly appeared on the War G.o.d UI:
