Chapter 1281: Parallel travels
A flash of light appeared in the sky.
It seemed to have a predetermined destination, flying through the night sky as it quickly headed down the vast meadow.
Gu Qing Shan landed on the bank of the lake on the meadow, looking at his other ‘self’.
His other ‘self’ was also looking at him.
“Ah? This sensation... how miraculous, then you are me?” the other ‘Gu Qing Shan’ asked.
“That’s right, on the way here, I heard that you were hailed as the Myriad Realms Sword Saint?” Gu Qing Shan replied.
The other ‘Gu Qing Shan’ pondered: “It’s merely a title, there’s no need to think too much of it. I can sense that your swordsmanship is no weaker than mine”
“Furthermore, you and I are exactly the same, combined with the unusual spatial fluctuations just now, perhaps you are from a parallel world?”
Gu Qing Shan praised: “Exactly, as expected of one with monstrous wits”
——behind him, the swords were discussing with one another.
The Earth sword spoke: 「 Why doesn’t he get flushed praising himself like this? 」
Luo Bing Li replied: “His skin is thick; the red won’t show through”
Shannu explained for Gu Qing Shan: “That’s another ‘him’, so he isn’t praising himself”
The Chao Yin sword vibrated in agreement.
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan pondered for a moment, then asked: “Did you come to find me because there is a tough situation to resolve in your reality?”
Gu Qing Shan replied: “Indeed, since I alone can’t deal with that situation, I needed some reinforcement”
He then explained the situation at the Tomb of Myriad Beasts.
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan listened, then slowly smiled: “To be able to observe the Apocalypse from such close distance, not to mention cooperating with myself in battle, how could I pass on such an interesting thing”
He stood up.
“Also, you said that one other ‘me’ is carrying [NEET], while another me is an Asura King?”
“Right, are you carrying an [Order]?” Gu Qing Shan asked.
“I am, it’s called [Worlds Apocalypse Online – Demon King Order]” Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan replied.
“[Demon King Order]! Listen to me, it had already been sabotaged by the people of the [Chaos] faction” Gu Qing Shan said with a changed expression.
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan waved his hand dismissively: “It’s fine, we’ve already fixed this [Order]”
Gu Qing Shan sighed in relief.
“That’s good, we still need to find other versions of ourselves, so what do you say we leave this reality now?”
“Give me a few minutes, I need to delegate a few things to my disciple” Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan replied.
Gu Qing Shan was surprised.
“I took in a disciple?” he muttered.
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan replied: “Hm, with Shifu’s permission, I can now take in my own disciples. Let me call him”
He took out a communication talisman, spoke a few words into it, infused it with spirit energy, then sent it away.
A few moments later.
A healthy, spirited teenager flew in from the meadow.
“Master! Master!”
The teenager called out in high spirits, then exclaimed in surprise: “Whoa! What the, why are there two Masters now!?”
He suddenly thought of something and uttered in surprise: “Master, did you manage to learn [Myriads Incarnations]?”
Gu Qing Shan looked at this young man, then sent his voice to his other ‘self’: “What did you see in him when you took him in as a disciple?”
“His morals and abilities” Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan sent his voice in reply.
Gu Qing Shan felt interested and continued: “Without discussing morals, what kind of ability does he have?”
“An Elemental Sound supernatural ability”
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan said with a bit of pride: “Within the range of a world after his ability has been activated, no one would be able to speak. As soon as someone goes against it, they would be immediately rejected from that world”
Gu Qing Shan nodded: “A rare ability indeed, and it can most likely evolve as well”
“Indeed, I also think the same”
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan waved to the teenager and spoke: “Come, Hai Lan, I’m going to make a trip outside, so there are things I need to delegate to you first”
“Yes, Master”
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan and the teenage Hai Lan spoke for a while before he was assured enough to leave this parallel world together with Gu Qing Shan.
...
Another parallel world.
Gu Qing Shan and Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan both used concealment hand seals and silently landed on top of a certain apartment building
A few moments later.
A figure hurriedly ran outside.
Watching the two people on the balcony, he was a bit confused.
“Are you my parallel world ‘selves’?” he asked.
“That’s right, we have something we need to do, so I came to ask if you’re willing to join us” Gu Qing Shan replied.
He then explained everything.
That ‘Gu Qing Shan’ sincerely said after hearing the explanation: “Such a challenging matter; of course, I would participate without fail”
As soon as he said that, the sound of a crying child resounded.
Followed by an irritated female voice: “Gu Qing Shan, the child is crying!”
That ‘Gu Qing Shan’ hurriedly ran back in while shouting: “Coming, coming!”
He silently mouthed something to his other two ‘selves’ before running back inside: “Wait a moment”
Bam!
The door was closed.
They could faintly hear voices from inside:
“Precious, don’t cry, papa is here...”
Gu Qing Shan and Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan were both stunned.
They couldn’t help themselves releasing inner sight to observe the situation in the room.
That ‘Gu Qing Shan’ was currently cradling a baby while awkwardly making powdered milk.
After the baby had their fill, he cradled the baby on his chest and put them to sleep while lightly swinging them.
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan scowled: “Fool, you can’t swing the baby, if the baby gets used to it, they’ll never go to sleep in the future without being swung”
Gu Qing Shan: “...Why do you know about that?”
“Take a guess” Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan replied.
They continued to observe the apartment with their inner sight.
In another room, four women were playing cards.
Su Xue Er, Anna, Ning Yue Chan, and Lin.
“Up” Lin declared.
“Why do you keep upping my cards?” Su Xue Er asked in irritation.
“Because my hand of cards can one-up you, simple as that” Lin replied.
“Wait—- I won. Pay up, pay up now, don’t get rowdy. If you can’t settle things with words, go to the space vortex and fight” Ning Yue Chan spoke.
“I have no issues with that, I’ve always wanted to beat her up” Lin grinned.
Anna pulled Su Xue Er behind her and looked up: “Lin, how can you bully people like that when you’re so strong? How about the two of us both take you on?”
“Why not? It’s not like having more people means you’re going to win in a fight” Lin scoffed.
Clang!
A shining white Blade was slammed onto the table.
The three women stopped quarrelling.
Ning Yue Chan held the handle of the Blade, casually telling them: “I don’t care how you’re resolving your bickering, but I won that game, so pay up”
At this point, the other ‘Gu Qing Shan’ had finished putting the baby to sleep.
He hurriedly came back out, sending his voice to the other two Gu Qing Shan:
“Come one, lead me away, let’s fight the Apocalypse”
The two of them looked at him, only to see his gaze full of dreams and anticipation.
Gu Qing Shan: “...”
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan: “...”
Gu Qing Shan took a deep breath, then whispered in a low voice: “That is... we need to use him as an example”
Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan nodded in agreement, then said: “Truly, we must use him as an example... both you and I will have a lot to do”
...
Another parallel world.
Bai Hua Sect.
Orchid Hall.
One ‘Gu Qing Shan’ was sitting on a cushion, then had an expression of epiphany on his face:
“I was wondering how someone managed to enter Orchid Hall without making any noises, so it was myself”
Gu Qing Shan, Sword Saint Gu Qing Shan, and babysitter Gu Qing Shan all nodded.
“The situation is like that. We need more forces to go against those Apocalypses” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Orchid Hall Gu Qing Shan then asked: “Why aren’t you looking for more people? Why just yourselves?”
“Because the situation is a bit urgent, with so little time, other than myself, I can’t trust anyone else” Gu Qing Shan shrugged.
Suddenly, a female voice resounded from the door of the hall:
“If you can’t trust others, then what about me?”
Several Gu Qing Shan all looked back.
Bai Hua Fairy – Xie Dao Ling had brought white goose, Qin Xiao Lou, Xiu Xiu, Wang Er, and Qing Rou with her, all standing at the entrance to Orchid Hall.
Xiao Lou rubbed his eyes, asking in disbelief: “Junior brother, how come you can also perform [Myriad Incarnations]? I heard before from Shifu that this technique can only be practiced by female cultivators...”
His gaze inadvertently fell towards Gu Qing Shan’s lower half.
Bam!
White goose violently slapped him on the head, saying: “Idiot, they are Gu Qing Shan from other realities”
Xiu Xiu was surprised: “Why did they all come here to us?”
Wang Er and Qing Rou gazed at each Gu Qing Shan, exchanged glances, then silently nodded.
It’s him.
It truly is him.
——so there really are parallel worlds!
Xie Dao Ling’s expression called down, dispersing the seal in her hand and said: “I had thought there were some sort of unimaginable enemy, but it was just Qing Shan”
She then told her other disciples: “While Qing Shan and I are not present at the sect, white goose will be responsible for everyone, Xiao Lou and everyone else, make sure to diligently keep up your cultivation”
“What!?” Gu Qing Shan was shocked, “Shifu also wants to come to my reality?”
Xie Dao Ling looked at him, then casually replied: “I know that you’re in a hurry and couldn’t find anyone trustworthy to fight the Apocalypse with you, so you could only find yourself——- but now that I’ve known everything, are you saying you can’t trust your master?”
Gu Qing Shan froze.
That’s true.
Regardless of what happens, Shifu is definitely worthy of trust.
And Shifu is much stronger than I am...
Xie Dao Ling then stared closely at the four Gu Qing Shan, asking: “Your master wants to accompany you to the Tomb of Myriad Beasts and examine the root of the situation while also lending a hand, does any of you have any objections?”
Saying so, she took out her whip and snapped it in mid-air.
Bang!
The void of space was struck to the point of trembling.
