World's Apocalypse Online Chapter 466

Outermost Layer worlds.

Gu Qing Shan managed to catch this unfamiliar noun within the white fox's words.

He kept the word in mind without saying anything yet.

Out of nowhere, Gu Qing Shan recalled Shen Wu world's coordinates.

It was different from every other coordinate that the Suspended world had.

If you really used the concept of ‘Layers' to explain, then they would be on different layers.

The white fox mused for a bit: “How do I say this? Truthfully, the reason for the beginning of all this was due to you using trickery to kill a Rakshasa candidate”
“That's how I took notice of you”
“In fact, at the start I only assumed that you were lucky enough to use that particular method to deal with the mask, and that the Rakshasa candidate's death was quite underserved”
“But your every decision, every plan, every action that followed were perfect without fault”
“That's why, you will get a fair treatment”

“Thank you” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He already had his hand on the formation plate.

The only solution left was to use the formation plate to warp and run away from here.
But the white fox will definitely notice…
With how strong it is, it can probably stop the formation plate from working.
What should I do?

While thinking, Gu Qing Shan continued asking: “It's an honor to catch your eyes, then, for what reason did you have to monitor me so closely?”

The three girls had already stepped in closer to him as he directed through inner sight.

After this, all they had to do was activate the Two-world warp formation as discreetly as possible to escape from here.

However, just like when Qi Yan activated his formation plate from before, this process required a few breaths of time.

“Look, I'm a very well-mannered person” the white fox said, out of nowhere.

 “I don't understand what you mean?”

The white fox explained: “I've been patiently waiting until you finished making that item to travel to another world to show up”
“I believe, this will feel more like I'm giving you the privilege of choosing, instead of forcing you”

While listening, Gu Qing Shan's expression turned solemn.

He's very powerful.
He knows about everything.
He even gave me the time to complete the formation plate.

“Why did you come see me?”

Gu Qing Shan changed his tone and asked seriously.

But his hand was still on the formation plate.

The white fox answered: “The main issue isn't why I came, but what will you choose for your future”

The white fox raised one of his tails, reaching forward.

The signs of a spell quickly passed through Gu Qing Shan.

“Let me see… hm… you've been through a total of 5 worlds, haven't you?”

“…I did”

To be able to find out even that, the fox's spell had completely overturned Gu Qing Shan's common sense.

The white fox kept his tail waving behind his back, not saying anything.

Gu Qing Shan also said nothing.

They only stared straight at each other while staying silent, as if trying to find the other side's weakness.

The white fox suddenly smirked.

He said: “Now I really feel like this test was worth it”

“I don't understand what you're talking about at all, sir” Gu Qing Shan replied.

The white fox was nonchalant: “I can feel your desires, how strong it is. It reminds me about myself in the past”

“Desires?” Gu Qing Shan repeated.

“That's right, the desire to become stronger, the desire to not be taken over by the Apocalypse, the desire to know the entire truth”

Gu Qing Shan was silent.

The white fox spoke: “After so long, you must have been quite tortured by your own desires, but that can't be helped. I bet you haven't had a good nap in a while”

“That's not true, I got myself quite a fulfilling nap not too long ago” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“You only slept for 10 minutes” Wan Er instinctively cut in.

Gu Qing Shan and the white fox both looked at her.

Qing Rou hurriedly pulled Wan Er back.

Wan Er stuck her tongue out, embarrassed: “I'm sorry, please ignore me”

The white fox spoke to Gu Qing Shan again: “This world, no, every world is currently facing their own rigorous tests and hardship, and you can't help but handle such a situation by yourself every time”
“This sort of unease, I have experienced as well, that's why I can empathize with you”

“Thank you for your consideration, but I still don't know why you're here” Gu Qing Shan replied.

“I already did, I came to give you a choice”

“A choice?”

“That's right, you're searching for the truth, the truth behind the disaster of all worlds, because only when you know the truth can you deal with everything to come”
The white fox sighed: “In truth, within the millions of worlds, both those in power and those with power are all searching for the truth behind the Apocalypse”
“Even powerful existences the kind of which I cannot imagine are deeply troubled by this problem”
“The search for the truth compels you, compels me, and compels everybody, Gu Qing Shan”

After saying so, the white fox stopped.

It looked at Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan went silent for a second and answered: “Your words did strike a chord, please continue”

The white fox asked: “How many worlds do you think there are?”

“I don't know”

“Monster of the same level as the realm demon, do you think there would be someone who can defeat it?”

“There isn't”

“The most powerful cultivators in this world are Cryptic realm, but do you think this is the final destination for cultivators?”

“I don't know, but it shouldn't be” Gu Qing Shan was a bit uncertain.

The white fox smiled, went silent and said nothing else.

Gu Qing Shan also understood.

“Excuse my poor language, but if there's something I need to make a choice with, please tell me directly” he said.

“What comes next involves some very precious secrets, outsiders aren't fit to listen in” the white fox answered.

Gu Qing Shan nodded.

He gave the formation plate to Qing Rou.

“The two of you leave first”

“Gongzi, what about you?”

“I want to try listening to him”

“But then…” Wan Er hurriedly called out.

Qing Rou held her back, giving her a knowing glance.

“Then we'll leave first”

“Hm”

Qing Rou infused the formation plate with spirit energy to activate it.

The light of the formation also covered Gu Qing Shan.

In just a few breaths, Gu Qing Shan would also be warped away.

This was what they used inner sight to discuss before.

Gu Qing Shan looked back at the white fox.

He was making a bet.

The white fox looked at him and slowly spoke: “You can decide by yourself whether to leave or stay, but I'll say this. The chance to meet me, within any of the worlds you reached before, will never appear again”

The light of the formation began to become stronger, covering Gu Qing Shan and the three girls.

The Two-world warp formation plate began to shift back and forth, as if looking for a path within the space vortex.

It was exactly the same as when Qi Yan activated the formation before.

The formation will activate in about 10 more breaths.

The three girls were all staring at Gu Qing Shan.

The white fox was also looking at him.

Seems like it has no intention of attacking.

Gu Qing Shan's thoughts were moving quickly.

His actions this time were to fish out the fox's true intentions, as well as attempting to regain the initiative.

He hadn't actually decided whether to stay or leave yet.

His little experiment already came out with results.

The white fox really didn't care whether he returns or not.

Gu Qing Shan then lowered his head and went into thought for 1 breath.

If I return…
I'll be able to see Shifu, Qin Xiao Lou, Xiuxiu, Ning Yue Xi, Leng Tian Xing.
After so many long battles, being able to meet them again would be a great thing.
Once I return, I can even fuse the two worlds to make the cultivators become stronger.
And then what?
If a monster like the realm demon appears in the cultivation world, who could stop it?
Even Cryptic realm cultivators are powerless.
And Reality is even weaker than the cultivation world.

Gu Qing Shan's gaze fell on the white fox again.

The white fox's strength had already surpassed Cryptic realm.
He represented a higher level.
And the girl who randomly wandered into the Suspended world of 1000 years ago.
She alone destroyed the entire Suspended world, not leaving even Cryptic realm cultivators the hope to resist.
Would I be willing to give up a chance to find the truth?
And according to what the white fox said, I only managed to qualify for a talk with it under completely random circumstances.
Such a chance might never come again.

Gu Qing Shan silently sighed.

To return to his own world and reunite with everyone, or take a step towards the unknown?

This was the choice.

Gu Qing Shan fell into thought.

His gaze happened to pass through the War God UI.

Nothing was being displayed on the UI.

But Gu Qing Shan suddenly realized something.

That's right.
I don't even know what the War God UI is.
Given the chance to do everything over again, do I really want to keep living cluelessly until one day a Demon Lord-class monster comes and devours everything?
In the past life, aside from the cultivation world, people of Reality didn't even get the chance to meet another world.
Being able to do it all over again, given an exclusive offer from an unknown entity, do I want to stay without improving?

He silently thought about it.

There were only 5 breaths left.

Gu Qing Shan couldn't help shaking his head.

The Two-world warp formation plate began to shake.

It had finished its preparation and was about to warp.

Gu Qing Shan suddenly took a step forward.

He went outside the effective range of the formation.

The two girls stared at him without moving away.

Gu Qing Shan turned back to look at the two worlds inside the formation.

“Your cultivation is quite high, so make sure to not bully our world's cultivators ok?” Gu Qing Shan smiled.

““Don't worry, gongzi”” the two girls replied in unison.

Wan Er's eyes were already a bit wet.

Qing Rou whispered to him: “We will tell your Shifu about you”

“Thank you” Gu Qing Shan nodded to her words.

Qing Rou was a bright and understanding girl.

What he went through in this world were all unheard of to the cultivation world.

As long as someone like his Shifu gets to hear and analyze these stories, they would be able to obtain a lot of useful information.

That way, the cultivation world's understanding of the various worlds will change drastically.

The current cultivation world has vast amounts of resources and two worlds in their hands, together with a relatively safe cultivation environment.

The cultivation world will be able to prepare for certain things ahead of time.

Oong!

The light of the formation plate abruptly became stronger.

Qing Rou was a bit anxious, wanting to say something to him, but she was already gone.

The Two-world warp formation had taken them and warped away.

Back to Shen Wu world.
