Chapter 928 - The Spread of Reality’s Collapse



Everyone was dead.

A towering figure descended from above and turned into a duo-horned man.

Colorful lights drifted around his body, then swiftly flew away, manifesting as various Professionists screaming and moaning in pain, trying to get as far away from him as possible.

「 Huh? So there are still so many souls that know these unique escaping methods? But to still dream of running away in front of me, how arrogant and self-righteous you are! 」

The Abyssal Demon Dragon’s eyes shined coldly.

He opened his mouth and inhaled, sucking all the light in this world into his stomach.

The world returned to darkness.

Boom———

Another volcano began to erupt, revealing the current state of this world.

The Demon Dragon stood still.

12 figures came down from above, all kneeling on one knee in front of the Abyssal Demon Dragon.

The leading Divinity reported: 「 Master, have you summoned us? 」

The Demon Dragon didn’t answer.

He slowly closed his eyes to show a pleased expression.

The 12 Divinities don’t dare to make a single move.

After a long while, the Demon Dragon muttered: 「 197,324 souls... what a wonderful feast this was 」

All of a sudden, his tone became furious, his roar echoed across the entire world, sending the world itself into a shudder.

「 GU——– QING———- SHAN! Why are you not here!!! 」

...

At another location.

Seaside World.

The hotel.

Hearing Kitty’s voice, Gu Qing Shan immediately spoke up: “It’s me, Kitty, it’s Gu Qing Shan!”

He seemed to hear Kitty talking to someone else on the other side, apparently muttering his name.

A few moments later, Kitty’s voice sounded again: [Thank the heavens, it really is you. Are you ok?]

Gu Qing Shan replied: “I’m still well, what about you?”

Kitty replied: [A year ago, your world finished its fusion and stopped interfering with space around it. When we re-established connection to the outside world, we discovered that the entire Strife Zones had vanished!]

Gu Qing Shan sighed and replied: “That’s right, it’s the Divinities’ action——- how are you guys faring right now?”

[Not very good, many people are wounded. We’ve led them all into hiding in your world, but it’s only getting more and more chaotic out there, we have no choice but to take refuge here for now] Kitty replied.

“Hm? What happened?” Gu Qing Shan cautiously asked.

[We’ve done some investigation, the monster that destroyed the Spire and the 900 million World Layers Alliance was actually a creature that came from the Eternal Abyss. It’s called the Soul Shrieker]

“What about it?”

[It is growing increasingly stronger——– the Fallen Zone that the Demon King Order took over had basically been completely destroyed]

“Did it manage to destroy the [Order] as well?”

[It didn’t, while fighting against it, the Order has also been controlling the demonized people to forcefully recruit more people into their ranks]

At this point, Kitty regained her composure: [Let’s not talk about that for now. Where are you? I’m going to pick you up]

“Can you make it here?” Gu Qing Shan hesitantly asked: “I’m at a very secluded location, most likely at the edge of the Strife Zones, near the Eternal Abyss”

[Why are you that far away!?] Kitty cried out in shock.

“A lot of things happened, so I’m staying here for now” Gu Qing Shan replied.

[I’m afraid I can’t make it that far—— we’re separated by the entire Fallen Zones and the entire Strife Zones] Kitty replied.

“Are there any other ways?” Gu Qing Shan asked again, still not giving up.

[The Strife Zones have been hidden away, so I’ve lost all of my teleport points within that area, and because you’re on the other side of the Strife Zones, I’m not able to make it] Kitty patiently explained.

She then recalled something and hurriedly asked: [That’s right, do you still have the Club’s Void String? You can use the Void String to travel directly back to the Club, I’ll be able to pick you up from there]

“I’ve already used it” Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Before his trip back to the Age of Old, Gu Qing Shan had already used the Void String to avoid Xie Dao Ling’s ‘killing question’.

——-even the last option is no good, seems like I won’t be able to meet up with Barry and Kitty for now.

Gu Qing Shan then said: “Listen to me, Kitty, what I’m about to say is very important, make sure that you don’t miss a single word”

[Got it!]

Gu Qing Shan told her about the Demon Dragon, then about the fact that there might be an issue with the Eternal Abyss.

[A parallel world that’s wrestling with the Apocalypse...] Kitty blankly repeated his words.

“That’s right, you need to be prepared for it, the best choice is to stay in hiding for now” Gu Qing Shan suggested.

Both the Soul Shrieker and the sweeping Abyss wasn’t something that Kitty and the rest of them could handle right now.

——–of course, Gu Qing Shan couldn’t handle it either.

However, even though he couldn’t even activate the Coin of the Earth right now and had no choice but to hide it inside his body, he was still a wielder of a Saint Pillar, and he would one day grow up.

Kitty replied: [We’re hiding in a Scattered World so there won’t be any issues for the time being, but you need to be careful]

Gu Qing Shan went silent briefly and asked: “If I make it to the other side of the Strife Zones and arrive at the vicinity of the Fallen Zone, would you be able to locate me?”

[I can definitely do that!] Kitty confirmed.

The two of them exchanged a bit more information before cutting off their connection.

Lin who had remained silent while Gu Qing Shan and Kitty discussed finally spoke up: “Seems like your friends won’t be able to make it”

“That’s right” Gu Qing Shan sighed, “That’s an issue”

Something suddenly started moving in his pocket.

When Gu Qing Shan took it out, he found that it was the Hitman medal.

He pressed his finger against it.

A sobbing female voice then came from the medal: [Ye Fei Li? Is that you?]

“Yeah, it’s me, what’s going on?” Gu Qing Shan asked in surprise.

[Everyone is dead]

“WHAT!?”

[Hic, hic, the Fire Mountain world suddenly collapsed, no one was able to escape...]

While sobbing, the girl carefully explained the situation.

It was only now that Gu Qing Shan understood. It wasn’t only the Hitman Guild but all the other forces, including the 7 Holy Churches, anyone who went into the Fire Mountain world perished within the world’s destruction.

The girl continued: [Ye Fei Li, after our Guild’s HQ knew about the situation, we’ve immediately dispatched manpower here, but before our experts made it here, many of the secret documents and wealth that’s kept in this world must be protected. HQ had entrusted you a job to watch over them]

“Me? I’m only an Intermediate-level Hitman”

[Most Combatants from the forces within several thousand worlds around us are all dead as well, although you’re only an Intermediate-level Hitman right now, you are most likely among the strongest]

The girl was clearly distraught: [This is considered a unique urgent dispatch, I beg you, please come quickly]

“...Fine, wait a minute, I’ll get there soon” Gu Qing Shan replied.

After cutting off communication, Gu Qing Shan looked towards Lin.

“I knew it was a trap, but I didn’t expect him to literally eat everyone, that’s a bit much” Gu Qing Shan scowled.

Lin crossed her arms and spoke without a care: “That’s nothing. You should feel fortunate that it wasn’t the Soul Shrieker or the Abyssal me”

“What would have happened then?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Lin replied: “If the Soul Shrieker wasn’t insane, it would have sucked every single world around this sector completely dry, as for me——– my Abyssal form can sense your emotions and thoughts, I don’t need to kill any extraneous people to reach the real you”

Gu Qing Shan shivered a bit inside and asked: “How’s your recovery now?”

Lin calmly replied: “My body is still constantly recovering, my martial arts expertise is also returning bit by bit. But since I’ve lost the ring of vows, I can’t use my Abyssal form, and all of my abilities that aren’t related to martial arts have been temporarily lost”

When Gu Qing Shan was about to say something else, he felt a vibration from inside his pocket again.

He took out the Hitman medal once more.

The girl’s extremely distraught voice came from inside: [Ye Fei Li, go to the Hitman Guild quickly, I have a specialized escape pod here that can immediately bring us away from this world!]

Gu Qing Shan became tense and hurriedly asked: “What happened?”

[After the Fire Mountain world was destroyed, the other worlds around us are also quickly collapsing one by one. It won’t be long until the wave of destruction reaches us!] the girl shouted.

“Got it, I’ll come right away” Gu Qing Shan replied.

He turned the medal off.

Lin stood up from her chair and faintly grinned: “I’m guessing it went berserk from not being able to catch you”

Gu Qing Shan said with irritation: “It’s really annoying to keep being chased around like this”

“Of course, the Abyssal Demon Dragon has control over the entire Strife Zones, if it wants to find us, there is a near limitless amount of resources and manpower at its disposal, we won’t be able to do anything but run” Lin replied.

“The Apocalypse of the Abyss is about to erupt and he’s still trying to interfere with our actions. Not only is this affecting my cultivation, but it’s also affecting your recovery”

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but complain.

“Unfortunately, we don’t have a way to change this” Lin agreed.

Gu Qing Shan went silently for a bit.

“Do you have a solution? Or rather, do you have a way to escape from its pursuit?” Lin asked.

Standing across from her, Gu Qing Shan’s gaze slowly became sharp.

“Causing such a huge commotion... and incessantly chasing after us, I think we need to have a little talk with him”

“Have a little talk with it?” Lin doubted her ears.

“That’s right. We have a lot of things we need to do right now, so I think it’s time we teach him a lesson and make sure he calms down a bit”

Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
