World's Apocalypse Online Chapter 389 - Forced summon

Chapter 389: Forced summon

The 86,370,000 tons Earth sword had a Spirit Thaumaturgy: [I am heavy]

Only the one that the Earth sword recognizes will be allowed to hold it.

And naturally, these dead people weren’t recognized.

Not only that, Gu Qing Shan was also using a certain technique from the Kai Shan sword style on the Earth sword.

Kai Shan Sword Style, Heavy Stance.

The Earth sword’s weight combined with the technique of a sword saint made the sword twice as heavy, so none of the dead could move it even a little bit.

All the leaders continued trying for the next short while, but none managed to even budge the Earth sword much less lifting it.

The male Asura now went back to the female Asura and obediently knelt in front of her.

He was explaining something.

The female Asura’s gaze s.h.i.+fted, a hint of excitement flashed through her alluring eyes.

“Fool!” she scolded.

The male Asura lowered his head, dejected.

The female Asura turned to Gu Qing Shan and spoke: “Human, your weapon is truly powerful, but we want to know your own strength”

“What do you suggest?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“I’ll ask the h.e.l.lsp.a.w.n Blade to aid my attack, if you manage to block three hits from me, I’ll admit that you’re qualified to partic.i.p.ate in this matter of h.e.l.l” the female Asura told him.

The small white bird looked at Gu Qing Shan.

“Go” Gu Qing Shan spoke.

Following his thought, the Chao Yin sword appeared from the void of s.p.a.ce.

The Bone-rending h.e.l.lsp.a.w.n Blade then flew into the female Asura’s hand.

The female Asura grabbed the Blade, formed a hand seal and roared: “Scatter!”

Five orbs of water manifested around her.

The orbs quickly formed into humanoid shapes and then turned into her.

In front of everyone, there were six identical beauties.

The beauties raised their Blades.

All six of them looked at Gu Qing Shan and spoke at the same time: “””It’s not too late for you to beg for forgiveness”””

Seeing that, the Male Asura was visibly full of admiration.

This was a very hard Secret Art to learn, requiring masterful usage of a Water-element Secret Art as well as a Blade Secret Art at the same time.

———Asura, Rahu Secret Art, Aqua Body.

Gu Qing Shan smiled: “What a rare technique, please!”

The six beauties nodded at the same time, moved their bodies and rushed towards Gu Qing Shan.

The Blades gleamed for an instant.

Clang clang clang clang clang clang!

Gu Qing Shan swung the Chao Yin sword to intercept their attacks.

Every single one of the female Asura’s attacks were blocked.

In the blink of an eye, the promised three attacks were over.

“Great swordsmans.h.i.+p!”

The female Asura yelled out.

She was visibly excited and wasn’t at all willing to stop her attacks, instead continued to split herself into more afterimages as she surrounded to attack Gu Qing Shan.

Like shadows and light, the Blades came at Gu Qing Shan from all sides.

There were even times when Gu Qing Shan was only a hair’s breadth from being hit.

“Exhilarating!” the female Asura smiled so brightly she revealed her dimples.

In a single moment, over ten gorgeous women surrounded Gu Qing Shan, constantly showering him with Blade slashes as intense as the flow of the Forgetting River.

While standing in place, Gu Qing Shan blocked and attacked with only a single sword, but nothing managed to hit him.

After a few hundred more attacks, the female Asura was finally satisfied and stopped her hands.

“You’re a strange one” she commented.

“How so?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“I’ve met quite a few humans in h.e.l.l, according to what I’ve seen of them, the human realm shouldn’t have someone as strong as you”

“There are exceptions sometimes” Gu Qing Shan answered.

He had already seen through her strength.

According to the standard in the cultivation world, this girl was about equivalent to an Ascended realm early stage cultivator.

The Asura in legends were belligerent, this female Asura had to be quite a decent fighter within the ranks of the dead.

Despite being so powerful, the female Asura didn’t hold any killing intent in the exchange of blows just now, she really was just evaluating him.

Since Gu Qing Shan didn’t mind that, he entertained her and held back as well.

In fact, through that exchange, he instead got an estimation of the power level of a leader in h.e.l.l.

The human old man silently gave him a thumbs up.

The other dead exchanged glances and silently nodded.

They briefly discussed a bit.

“Now you can join us against the other h.e.l.ls”

It was now that Wolf King finally spoke directly to Gu Qing Shan for the first time.

“Thank you, I need to go meet the Forgetting River Soul Separating Hook to find out the truth of what happened” Gu Qing Shan spoke.

“What’s good is there to know about the truth, since things have already gotten this bad, it’s better to just kill —–” Wolf King couldn’t help but speak up.

The ground started to shake.

The Grand Tie Wei Mountain itself was shaking.

This mountain that could withstand the all-destroying winds of chaotic tribulation was now letting out rumbling noises.

“Not good, this feeling ——–it’s summoning!” the human old man’s expression changed.

“Something is calling us” Wolf King growled.

“I ——feel ——–must ———go” the Giant spoke in a thunderous voice.

“No! We’re going to help him first!” the female Asura decidedly spoke up.

The other leaders looked surprised.

“Whoever I fight, I’m able to sense their strength, this is my ability, or did you forget?” the female Asura solemnly spoke.

Obviously, the female Asura was quite respected, so the leaders quickly followed her idea.

“Then let’s make this quick!” the Fiendkind spoke.

He turned into a ball of light, flying into the air directly towards the Divine Armament shrine of wors.h.i.+p.

The Giant quickly followed.

Because Gu Qing Shan purposefully went far away from the shrine earlier, they were now a bit of a distance from the shrine.

“Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! We’ll be force summoned back to h.e.l.l in just a few moments” the human old man said.

He also flew up towards the shrine.

The rest of the leaders of h.e.l.l flew together.

Gu Qing Shan shouted: “What happened just now?”

“I don’t know, I really don’t know!” the small white bird hurriedly answered.

“We’re chasing after them, quickly!” Gu Qing Shan said as he went.

Halfway there, he heard the Giant’s screams coming from the direction of the shrine.

As he went over the h.e.l.l, Gu Qing Shan froze in place, muttering: “Soul Devouring Spider Demon…”

A battle was currently commencing in front of the shrine.

One of the Giants was now turned into an ashen white statue that quickly collapsed to dust.

The other Giant was sent flying far away.

The Fiendkind hovered in midair, constantly firing his Elemental powers at the shrine.

But these attacks were quickly scattered in their flight and couldn’t even make it to the shrine.

A 5-colored striped spider sat on top of the shrine, its size was about equal to the shrine itself.

On top of the spider was the naked upper half of a man.

This was the Soul Devouring Arachna, a renowned species even within the ranks of demons.

In the past life, he met this demonic creature once.

This type of demon had an eerie unique ability.

It hunts with its inner sight.

As soon as a creature’s inner sight gets entangled with it, they’ll be forced into a blank state of mind.

This ability was exceptionally frightening in large-scale wars.

The appearance of a single Soul Devouring Arachna could turn an even battle into a one-sided slaughter.

And it’s not even easy to a.s.sa.s.sinate individually.

It’s own powers are equivalent to that of a Remodeled Demon Lord.

The Soul Devouring Arachna’s vertical irises opened wide, smirking: “A bunch of dead that doesn’t want to sleep and come to bother me? What a——”

Slas.h.!.+

Dozens of Blade slashes struck him directly on the face, cutting off his words.

“An Asura? d.a.m.n you!”

The Arachna became angry as the eight spider legs quickly crawled down from the top of the shrine.

He started to chase the leaders of h.e.l.l.

Then Wolf King Suddenly howled and morphed his body to as big as the Soul Devouring Arachna.

He crashed straight at the Soul Devouring Arachna to push him back a few steps.

“Run!” Wolf King roared.

All the leaders of h.e.l.l quickly scattered and ran.

“You f.u.c.king pieces of s.h.i.+t!”

The Soul Devouring Arachna roared in anger.

Slightly lowering his spider legs, the Soul Devouring Arachna jumped to give chase.

Despite his size, he was surprisingly fast on his feet.

The leaders of h.e.l.l ran ahead while the Soul Devouring Arachna chased behind, quickly moving away from the shrine.

The male Asura suddenly appeared in front of the shrine, gesturing to Gu Qing Shan.

“Get in quickly!” he yelled.

Gu Qing Shan’s body disappeared and reappeared in front of the shrine in an instant.

The human old man also came out of the shrine, saying: “There are no demons inside, you go in, we’ll keep watch!”

“What if the Arachna returns?” Gu Qing Shan hurriedly asked.

“We’re going to buy time for you and help you escape”

Gu Qing Shan was moved: “But then you all might —–”

“It’s only a nap, nothing to worry about, dead people can’t die again” the old man waved his hand dismissively.

Thinking that was indeed the case, Gu Qing Shan nodded to the two of them and quickly went inside the shrine.

The shrine remained as silent as before, like no one has come here for over a thousand years.

Gu Qing Shan’s eyes quickly scanned across the shrine.

There were many pedestals for wors.h.i.+p here.

Each of them housed a different ancient weapon.

Blade, spear, sword, halberd, hammer, axe, hook, javelin, whip, shovel, fan, mace, flail, staff, pike, morning star… all common cold weapons from an age pa.s.sed, a total of 60 of them.

These weapons didn’t move, and didn’t manifest any spirits, seemingly sleeping.

Gu Qing Shan quickly found his target.

It laid at the very center of the shrine.

Standing tall on a pedestal of wors.h.i.+p was a unique weapon.

From the blade and hilt alone, it looked like a normal sword.

But at the top part of the blade, the shaft curved to form an inward-facing hook, a Khopesh.

It hovered above the pedestal, glowing in a light similar to that of the Forgetting River.

Gu Qing Shan landed in front of the khopesh’s pedestal.

Before he did anything, a light-blue presence came out from his body and lightly touched the pedestal.

As soon as the pedestal felt this blue presence, an incantation appeared on it.

This seems to be the weapon spirit summoning contract.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised at this.

Originally he thought it would take quite a bit more effort, who knew the blue-dress girl’s presence would have such an effect.

He looked at the incantation on the pedestal and softly chanted: “Separate the soul, takes a life, the Forgetting River at your service”

Oong!

With a quiet noise, the khopesh on the pedestal moved.

It became animated.

It spoke: “Ah? This seems to be her presence”

The khopesh flew down from the pedestal and hovered in front of Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit unconvinced.

This Divine Armament had also been sleeping, will it really know what happened to Huang Quan?

The Forgetting River Soul Separation Hook temporarily stayed silent, seemingly trying to confirm something.

After a while, the Forgetting River Soul Separation Hook spoke: “That’s right, you really do have her presence that she willingly gave, seems like we’re on the same side”

The khopesh’s att.i.tude became less distant.

Roar!

A thunderous roar came from outside the shrine.

Gu Qing Shan’s felt pressured.

The Soul Devouring Arachna is about to return.Seems like either those leaders of h.e.l.l couldn’t resist it for too long, or they really were forcefully being summoned back to h.e.l.l by something.

The Forgetting River Soul Separation Hook instantly spoke: “This is no place for us to talk, let’s go quickly!”
