Worlds' Apocalypse Online Chapter 1118 - Come

Chapter 1118: Come

“How does it feel to be a dog?”

Gu Qing Shan nodded and silently stared at him.

Faint fog drifted about the two of them as steam rose from the teapot into the air.

The man clenched his fist tightly.

When the atmosphere became frozen to its limit, he suddenly let go.

“The Devil King is surely a man of character, unfortunately, that character is coupled with the shallow vision of an ignorant man” the man regretfully shook his head, talking to him like a man standing from a higher point.

Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised but silently took him more seriously.

This fearless att.i.tude…

Does he have a treasure tool that can a.s.sure his victory?

Gu Qing Shan relaxed his sword seals, leaned back on his chair, and crossed one leg over the other.

He turned to the sea of clouds, considering the measures he could take while displaying a regretful expression.

“Truthfully, this humble one isn’t ignorant of the situation, it is simply that the mask contains too many runes, I can’t possible wear such a thing”

——-the mask on the table was carved with so many runes that Gu Qing Shan simply used spirit energy to push it back to the other party without touching it.

The man went silent shortly before tapping his finger on the mask.

The Devil King’s words were a bit surprising to him.

His killing intent faded slightly, but still curious and couldn’t help himself asking: “Why would the Devil King not be able to wear it when it’s full of runes? Are there some problems that you cannot put into words?”

“Indeed” Gu Qing Shan admitted.

The man pondered, his killing intent faded a bit more, and continued: “Would the Devil King care to share it with me?”

Gu Qing Shan answered very sincerely: “I am claustrophobic”

The man froze.

Violent killing intent erupted from his body, sweeping into their surroundings like the wind of a storm.

Gu Qing Shan sighed: “It is the truth——- if you instead offer your mask to me, I would seriously consider your proposition”

The man’s mask was completely void of any runes, it was a plain mask drawn over with deep red ink, depicting a pair of terrifying fangs, a ring over his nose, and a pair of droopy eye features——- although the eye sockets were left empty to display a pair of blank, dirty irises.

The man placed his hand on the table and slowly spoke: “When any Deity of Huang Quan is killed, the Divine Armaments of Huang Quan would go and search for new masters by themselves, this is a Law of Huang Quan that even we cannot violate, an extremely troublesome thing”

He then slammed the table: “But if I don’t kill you today, it would tarnish my master’s name, and as his servant, I would also feel irritated”

Gu Qing Shan smiled and casually said: “Then come”

The man also smirked: “Come”

The two of them locked eyes.

A layer of b.l.o.o.d.y glow suddenly appeared all over Gu Qing Shan’s body.

Strand after strand of the b.l.o.o.d.y glow detached from his body, gathering behind the man to manifest a surging sphere of blood.

Gu Qing Shan sensed his blood being siphoned away and wielded his sword to perform a single forward thrust.

Convergence realm!

This strike had converged all of Gu Qing Shan’s power, the strongest attack he could perform.

The pavilion shattered from the shockwaves.

The man sat still, but a pair of golden chopsticks appeared in his hand.

As the violent sword phantom approached him, it suddenly stopped.

His sword was stopped.

Gu Qing Shan’s strike was perfectly caught by this pair of chopsticks.

Gu Qing Shan tried pulling his sword back, but it wouldn’t budge no matter what.

A curt ‘wu wu’ resounded.

Another sword appeared from the void of s.p.a.ce to slash at the man’s head.

Just as the sword was about to cut through his mask, another pair of golden chopsticks caught it.

——–it was a projection of the golden chopsticks.

Gu Qing Shan turned his mind and summoned the Chao Yin sword.

This time, even before a sword phantom could manifest, it was already caught, unable to move.

Gu Qing Shan lost control of three of his swords, unable to use his swordsmans.h.i.+p.

“Devil King, you are dead”

The man calmly replied.

Gu Qing Shan stood on top of the table with a confused expression.

His blood was continuously being siphoned from his body, gathering into the sphere behind the man.

This battle was over.

Gu Qing Shan staggered a bit and sat down on the table, sighing dejectedly: “My inner sight is constantly watching around my body, how did you suddenly start siphoning my blood when I couldn’t find you making any moves?”

The man chuckled: “Every yaksha mask contains an unblockable Guise Hex, all of them are different. This mask of mine was bestowed by my master, which can siphon blood from afar—– there, you should be content in your death”

Gu Qing Shan continued: “Since you are able to arrive at the Yama Heavenly realm, your cultivation shouldn’t be too much higher than mine. Those three attacks just now were already performed with my full power, so how did you stop them with only a pair of chopsticks?”

The man remained silent for a while, only until Gu Qing Shan started leaning on the table from losing too much blood that he chuckled with a low voice.

“The strength of the Wraith realm’s Soul Artifacts lies in them containing Causality Laws——- this pair of chopsticks were made from pure gold, housing a single Causality Law. This was also bestowed to me by my master”

“When these chopsticks are used, no matter what kind of attack you use, it will definitely prevent three attacks without fail”

While explaining, the man was closely observing Gu Qing Shan.

The b.l.o.o.d.y glow around Gu Qing Shan’s body was madly surging forward, being drained together with the blood from his body, causing him to tremble, unable to even hold his sword properly.

“Using pure gold to make a pair of chopsticks, how luxuriously wasteful” Gu Qing Shan sighed.

The man checked the progress of his draining blood and boasted: “Earlier, the Devil King asked me how it felt to be a dog? I’ll tell the Devil King now, this mask and chopsticks are my answers”

Gu Qing Shan nodded: “What a good answer”

The man felt triumphant and started boasting even more: “Although we are servants, besides having to heed the master’s orders, our daily lives are not too inferior compared to the Yama Heavenly realm being depicted here; after all, we’ve conquered countless parallel worlds”

“That’s right, not only did you destroy those worlds, you’ve even pushed them into the Eternal Abyss, causing us to lose so much sleep every day” Gu Qing Shan followed up.

The man grinned even more.

He then spoke with a pretentious unfortunate tone: “How regretful, how very regretful, the Devil King will have to die now, you can’t even choose to be a dog, tell me, how does that feel?”

Gu Qing Shan pondered and muttered to himself: “An artifact with an Unblockable Guise Hex, Soul Artifacts with Causality Laws—— this is already powerful beyond any sense of the imagination, I a.s.sume that your world has already fused with quite a few Wraith realm fragments”

The man scoffed: “We have fused over 70% of the Wraith realm fragments—- Devil King, let me send you on your way!”

He reached his hand out, manifesting a sharp ghostly claw and swiped towards Gu Qing Shan.

——this swipe would directly rip Gu Qing Shan’s body apart.

Hoh!

The force of the strike scattered into the wind.

The ghostly claw couldn’t catch anything.

Gu Qing Shan had vanished.

The man froze, muttering: “Strange, he was already at death’s door, how did he have the strength to evade that?”

The next split second.

Heaven and earth turned over itself.

The small table, the tattered pavilion, the sea of clouds, everything suddenly stretched endlessly far.

Then they immediately returned.

The man found himself sitting still.

The small table was still there.

Steam slowly rose from the teapot.

Everything was as it was.

The Huang Quan Devil King was still sitting in front of him, silently staring at him.

The man paused for a brief moment and asked: “An illusion?”

Gu Qing Shan shook his head.

The man waited for a bit longer but found that Gu Qing Shan remained silent without saying a word.

He slowly spoke: “The Devil King’s abilities truly are beyond expectations, but when you deserve to die, you will not escape death!”

Gu Qing Shan was once again enveloped in a b.l.o.o.d.y glow.

———Guise Hex – Blood Siphon!

At the same time, Gu Qing Shan abruptly wielded the Earth sword and stabbed forward.

The man took out a pair of golden chopsticks again.

Regardless of how the sword changed its course, it still struck the golden chopsticks without fail.

The blinding light of the sword phantom on the sword scattered, perfectly caught by the golden chopsticks.

“Tch, the Devil King truly is stupi——”

Before he could finish his words, a blinding arc of lightning appeared from the sword.

Lightning Thaumaturgy, [Dreamjolt]!

The man was instantly frozen, unable to move.

Five seconds.

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze became tense.

From the void, another sword abruptly appeared from the void and stabbed straight into the man’s chest.

—-the Heaven sword!

Before the sword even got close, two projections appeared from the golden chopsticks to receive the sword.

——-this was the power of Causality, capable of stopping any attack regardless of what it was!

Unfortunately.

Gu Qing Shan’s sword went through the projections of the golden chopsticks without issue and stabbed into the man’s chest.

Another sword then appeared, also stabbing through his chest from behind.

Secret Art, [Swallow Returns]

“Im…possible” the man was in complete disbelief, struggling to speak: “This is the master’s golden chopsticks, nothing could pa.s.s through it…”

Gu Qing Shan casually replied: “You only know that your master’s chopsticks are powerful, but fail to realize that gold has the third highest electric conductivity among metals, losing to bronze but is better than aluminum”

The man opened his eyes wide, speechless, then pointed at the sword in his chest.

The chopsticks were able to block three attacks without fail.

He really couldn’t understand why the golden chopsticks lost their effect this time around.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “I’m not going to tell you”

The man coughed up blood but was stopped by his mask and flowed down his neck.

His head went limp, he died.
