Asked and answered.
I am not sure I follow. possible world semantics..?? Maybe there are correct formulations of your argument, I just think the one you presented is plainly false. In one sentence you say that there exists a world where nothing exists i.e. there exists a possible world which doesn't exist. That's impossible by definition.
