Worlds’ Apocalypse Online - Chapter 501

Chapter 501: Unease

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader: Arya

Within the space vortex, a large ship was currently moving forward.

Being as fast as it was, the ship caught the attention of numerous creatures hiding within the void.

Occasionally, some of these particularly large creatures would appear out of nowhere, attempting to attack the ship.

Whenever that happened, the ship would release a bright light that covered it like a shell.

It would then suddenly speed up and crash straight into those creatures.

Before you knew it, the ship would’ve already gone through the monster and continued heading forward.

While a large hole would be left on the monster’s body.

This was a ship that belonged to the Spire Keeper Association.

After countless years of search and exploration, they had thought of all sorts of countermeasures against problems that would appear from the void of space.

In the ship.

One of its guest rooms.

Gu Qing Shan had selected the layout of his room this time to be Bai Hua sect’s Orchid Hall.

Sitting in a corner of the large hall, he glanced at the spirit cooking and pills that were placed here.

They were already here when he entered the room.

These pills were clearly reminiscent of Bai Hua sect. Upon closer inspection, they could be recognized as something that Bai Hua Fairy and Qin Xiao Lou created.

There was also an incense pot burning calming incense, the same kind Gu Qing Shan always used.

Being able to create real, usable items simply from the memories of their passenger, this wasn’t a simple feat.

Gu Qing Shan was once again impressed by the powers wielded by the Spire Keeper Association.

The conditions in Orchid Hall were perfect for him to break through.

But Gu Qing Shan did not regret choosing the slums last time at all.

That was also a type of relaxing.

Gu Qing Shan took one of the pills and swallowed it.

The medicine quickly turned into a warm flow, absorbing into his body.

Intense spirit energy began to build up.

Gu Qing Shan stared at the notification on the War God UI.

[Remaining Soul Points: 300,000/400]

Gu Qing Shan just stopped and stared at it for a while.

Why do I feel a sense of… satisfaction out of nowhere?

He took out the 7-colored fragrance bag again.

Infusing his inner sight into it, he searched for a bit to find a jade tag.

A notification popped up on the War God UI.

[Xie Dao Ling’s cultivation notes]

[This jade tag records Bai Hua Fairy Xie Dao Ling’s experience cultivating the Sainted realm through its early, middle and late stages, as well as methods she tried to advance above Sainted]

Reading this, Gu Qing Shan sighed.

With Xie Dao Ling’s talent and brilliant mind, she would’ve broken through Sainted to achieve Projection realm, or possibly reached Tribulation realm and above a long time ago.

Unfortunately, she was born in the cultivation world.

Being a Scattered world, the limit it was stuck with was Sainted realm.

Now that he carefully thought about it, the cultivation world was also very strange.

During the semester examination, Gu Qing Shan had witnessed the broken Path to Heaven.

If Divinity used to exist, then the cultivation world should also be a complete Samsara world.

Then where were the Divinities now?

Xie Dao Ling’s previous sect was destroyed, leaving no one but herself alive.

But despite being alone, she managed to learn some powerful Divine Skills such as [Skyfall], [Ground Shrink], [Unbreakable Mountain].

She even had Samsara Divine Skills like the Huang Quan Path’s [Forgetting River] and an Asura Path Divine Skill.

At the time, Qi Yan was a Virtualized realm cultivator, a total of 3 realms above Xie Dao Ling, but as soon as he noticed that Xie Dao Ling had a Samsara Divine Skill, he was frightened and wanted to stop her from using it.

How did Xie Dao Ling get these Divine Skills?

If there was one from the Huang Quan Path and Asura Path respectively, then what about the other paths?

Gu Qing Shan witnessed first hand the existence of the Forgetting River ferrywoman, she wasn’t fake.

Everything about Xie Dao Ling was a mystery.

The history of the cultivation world had a missing period of a few hundred years.

What exactly happened, over 100,000 years ago in that missing history?

The fact that a Samsara world existed within the Scattered worlds——- this came as a shock to both Barry and Kitty.

According to them, Samsara worlds usually existed in the Mystic Zones.

Then what about the cultivation world?

Was it also an undiscovered Samsara world?

Thinking about it for a bit, Gu Qing Shan found that he didn’t have a clue about anything.

And he was currently unable to return to the cultivation world.

Thinking that, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but sigh helplessly.

Qing Rou and Wan Er have both been sent to the cultivation world.

I can only hope everything goes well.

As he thought about it more and more, a sense of worry welled up inside him.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head, dispelling such thoughts.

It’s not time to think about useless things.

It’s time to breakthrough!

Following his thought, a few lines of text showed up on the War God UI.

[To comprehend Xie Dao Ling’s cultivation notes’ method of breaking through to Sainted realm middle stage, 600 Soul Points is required. Would you like to comprehend it?]

“Yes, use 600 Soul Points”

As he said so, a warm flow came from the jade tag, filling Gu Qing Shan body before settling at his Thought Sea.

In a few moments, Bai Hua Fairy Xie Dao Ling’s comprehension of cultivating the Sainted realm was now understood by Gu Qing Shan.

At this point, Gu Qing Shan had both the Asura King’s entire life’s worth of battle experience and Xie Dao Ling’s Sainted realm middle stage understanding of cultivation.

As a genius in both sword cultivation and battle, having these two things made him improve as if having a pair of wings on a tiger.

Gu Qing Shan briefly calmed himself down, leveling his breathing and quickly entered a breakthrough state.

Having been through the battle in the Suspended world, killing Wang Hong Dao despite being 3-4 realms below, even Gu Qing Shan couldn’t believe it at the moment.

But that sense of disbelief didn’t last for long.

The appearance of the white fox.

The battle for Rakshasa.

Xiao Die.

The Spire Keeper Association.

Barry and Kitty.

Gu Qing Shan was now already numb.

His vision had far surpassed himself from before, his view on and understanding of cultivation realms had both gone beyond that of the cultivation world’s.

His spirit energy was shifting constantly, his spirit sense got clearer and more hidden, his Thought Sea was also opening up.

After an untold amount of time.

Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.

Sainted realm middle stage was reached as easily as water flowing downstream.

After checking the changes in his body briefly, he stood up from the cushion.

“What time is it?” he asked.

“6 o’clock, it’s already nighttime” Shannu answered.

She looked around in confusion: “Gongzi, the place you lived at before was so small, why is this place so big?”

Gu Qing Shan smiled a bit and answered: “My Shifu likes to keep up appearance, so she likes things to be a bit grandiose and solemn”

He held back his thought of wanting to breakthrough again as he paced around Orchid Hall.

With a shadow expanding in his mind, Gu Qing Shan felt a bit uneasy.

“Something’s not right, why do I keep feeling so uneasy, could it be something happened?” Gu Qing Shan muttered.

This feeling was similar to having someone tailing you closely with a knife, waiting to stab you in the back.

“Shannu, do you feel something?” Gu Qing Shan suddenly asked.

Shannu was the spirit of the Divine Mountain, so she might sense things a bit clearer.

The Six Paths Great Mountain sword flew out, turning into an indifferent blue-dress girl.

She silently stared at Gu Qing Shan and answered: “I feel that you’ve gotten stronger”

“Not that, do you have some sort of strange feeling in your mind, like some kind of intuition”

Shannu thought for a bit and shook her head.

Then she thought of something, activated the [All Beings Equal] and turned from a sword spirit into a real female cultivator.

“Hm… I can sense that everything is as it should be, completely normal” Shannu thought for a bit more and answered.

“Could it be that my spirit sense was off?”

Gu Qing Shan lightly pinched the creases on his forehead.

Shannu curiously asked: “Gongzi, your spirit sense is reacting?”

“Ah, it is, but it’s a faint omen, it won’t necessarily be the truth” Gu Qing Shan replied.

While he said that, spirit sense was similar to the intuition that Gu Qing Shan was used to, and frequently relied on.

Spirit sense was different from fortune telling cards.

Spirit sense would foretell real images of what was about to happen, so if cultivators could glance and peek at these real future images, they might be able to prepare better to deal with them.

Unfortunately, Gu Qing Shan was only feeling uneasy without seeing any solid future.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head and sighed.

Fine, let’s not think about it for now.

While I’m feeling so uneasy, it’s not suitable to keep cultivating.

So Gu Qing Shan stepped out.

Following the hallway of the ship, he reached the ship’s deck.

There weren’t any other guests on this ship.

Seems like this was a ship that the Spire Keeper Association purposefully sent out to receive him and him alone.

Gu Qing Shan looked around.

The winds of the vortex flowed intensely like a waterfall.

Gu Qing Shan’s shirt sleeves were fluttering with the wind nonstop.

The ship itself was currently moving forward at such speed that even though there would occasionally be sceneries of various worlds flashing by, they were too fast for even Gu Qing Shan to check out.

Out of nowhere, a monster that appeared incredibly fierce came out.

It looked like a snake and at the same time similar to an ocean fish that grew too long.

The monster opened its gaping jaws, roaring as it approached the ship.

Its jaws were huge enough to swallow ten ships of this size at once.

But the ship wasn’t reacting to it at all.

“Is someone there?” Gu Qing Shan called out.

No one responded.

The ship only sped up and crashed straight through the monster’s body.

The monster was screeching as it writhed in a frenzy while falling downwards.

More and more monsters appeared from the void of space, pursuing the fallen monster.

It probably didn’t have long to live.

Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan felt nothing but completely impressed.

He couldn’t help but look back at the ship’s sails.

Unlike the duo sail ship he travelled on before, this ship was even larger, with several layers of sails orderly lined up to form a half-bowed shape.

If this was ancient times, this would be a 4-sail ship appropriate for long-distance travel.

The large ship kept quickly moving through the dark space vortex, no more monsters dared show up around it.
