Chapter 830: Seeking Enemy

Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9

The blue flame danced on his forehead.

Sudden waves of chill flowed across the air from where he stood like tidal waves.

Transparent, glittering ice crystals began to manifest around the Xie Qi Ruler’s body, refracting the light around him to form a 5-colored glow.

A divine sense of dignity and solemnity exuded from his body.

From the time he killed the God of Frost and Chill up to now, Gu Qing Shan had been hiding his body inside his Inventory Bag.

This couldn’t be helped.

At the time, all the Divinities were gathered at the Cold Jade Forest to observe the situation of the Divine King’s death so if he didn’t conceal the God of Frost and Chill’s body well and it was found, his plan would’ve failed right away.

But he didn’t expect it to have other uses like this.

『 Ah… You are… what exactly…』

The Silent Ruler stared closely at him, completely frozen from the strange scene she was seeing.

Sensing the immense power made purely of Elemental Ice emerging from Gu Qing Shan’s body, all the evil creatures were speechless.

Elemental Ice!

Metal-Wood-Water-Fire-Earth, among them, Elemental Ice was a special form of Elemental Water, but it was still a main Element.

And it was a power that didn’t belong to this world!

Gu Qing Shan spoke up: “This is my unique ability, I can borrow and utilize the power of another world. I hope you don’t panic from seeing this”

『 The Primordial Heaven Realm? 』the Silent Ruler asked.

“Indeed”

The Silent Ruler wasn’t completely convinced, but she had no other way to explain the current situation.

Not to mention the fact that she and every other evil creature here were currently under the effect of her covenant.

They cannot attack the Xie Qi Ruler.

After explaining himself, Gu Qing Shan’s gaze fell back onto the [Kindling] UI.

Lines of blood-red text were already displayed here:

[You’ve used 900,000 Soul Points to use the Mystery of All Beings Equal and transform into the God of Frost and Chill]

[As you took a large number of Soul Points, the Order’s evolution was forcefully stopped]

[…Your Excellency, Envoy of Condemnation, I hope you are correct]

After Gu Qing Shan read them, these lines of blood-red text vanished.

Gu Qing Shan smirked and silently said in his mind: “Don’t worry, the rest of this is very simple”

His jet-black skin signature to the Xie Qi fiends faded away as his human appearance came out.

But unlike normal humans, he was exuding a thick air of dignity.

[Kindling] replied: [You will soon have to face the attacks of several dozen 100-million-year-old demonic sea creatures. If you say that is simple, I don’t know what you consider difficult]

“You’re still too green” Gu Qing Shan explained: “In truth, fighting is and has always been the simplest thing to do. As long as you’re prepared and are willing to fight, the only two results that can come out is either victory or defeat”

[Then, what is more difficult?] [Kindling] asked.

It was preparing to memorize everything he said to ensure that it doesn’t look dumb in the future.

Gu Qing Shan answered: “There are a lot of things that are vastly more difficult than fighting. Like making a good dish, like finding a job to live, or going after the girl you like, earning enough to support your family, returning to the good old days… all of them are a lot more difficult”

“That’s why the one thing I’m never worried about is fighting”

He pulled the Divine King’s staff from the void of space and pointed it downwards.

Divine King Craft, [Frost Century]!

This was a full-powered attack from a peak stage Paragon realm Divine King!

Sha sha sha sha sha sha sha sha!

The mist that surrounded the entire ship was instantly turned into fragments of ice and fell onto the deck.

The world became clear again.

Following that, the turbulent ocean water around the ship was quickly frozen over by a thick layer of ice.

While the sea beneath that couldn’t be seen with naked eyes was also quickly being frozen at a pace that even the eye couldn’t keep up, almost instantly turning the 1,000,000 meters radius of the ocean around them into an iceberg.

This freezing speed far surpassed the reaction time of most demonic sea creatures.

All the fleshy tentacles that stretched onto the deck of the ship were frozen stiff, unable to move.

Gu Qing Shan held the Chao Yin sword tightly and swung at full power.

“HAAAAAAHHHHH! BREAAAAAKKKKKK!!!!”

He furiously roared.

The Chao Yin sword’s Thaumaturgy, [All Crossing Sea of Bitterness]!

The progress bar representing the remaining Soul Points on the [Kindling] UI abruptly jumped and was reduced to nothing.

Under Chao Yin’s will, the sea of ice began to crumble by itself.

The calamity produced a turbulent and deafening bang, worse than any earthquake that resounded all around.

The demonic sea creatures hiding under the ocean were first frozen, then ripped apart by the immense force of the ocean itself breaking apart.

Pah!

On the [Kindling] UI, the progress bar that had just reduced to nothing was instantly filled to the brim.

Because the Soul Points progress bar couldn’t display the exact amount of Soul Points, a number appeared below the progress bar to display the number of Soul Points collected.

The number reads: [3.7 million].

A whooping 3.7 million Soul Points!

[Kindling] immediately spoke up: [So much Soul Points! And the Life Mysteries of lifeforms over 100 million years old! Quickly, take this chance and kill more of them!]

Its tone was full of desires.

The Chaos Demonic Sea itself was full of chaotic elements and energy, combined with the immense power produced by the shift of the 1,000,000 meters ocean just now, even the 100 million years old demonic sea creatures couldn’t properly react to the sudden devastation.

The weaker ones were immediately killed.

Only the extremely powerful demonic sea creatures remained.

Taking advantage of when they still haven’t regained their senses and killing a few more was indeed the best choice.

But as soon as the ocean iceberg erupted, Gu Qing Shan vanished.

No one knew where he was hiding.

No one knew if he had even left or not.

The turbulent ocean gradually became slow.

Gigantic creatures rose from underneath the frozen sea.

Their bodies blocked out the sky itself, taking up the evil creatures’ visions.

They were chanting an incantation with a strange tone, then suddenly raised their voices.

The incantation was activated!

Boom!

The originally frozen water surface was instantly turned back into seawater.

This was the joint operation of all the 100-million-year-old demonic sea creatures.

They needed seawater.

And the ocean is both their home and preferred battlefield!

『 Where is that bastard!? 』

A furious voice resounded across the air.

The remaining demonic sea creatures all frantically searched for the God of Frost and Chill.

But they couldn’t find anything.

After taking the Divine King form, Gu Qing Shan’s power was equivalent to that of a Paragon realm peak stage cultivator.

Which meant that to surpass the [Black Smog Boots]’s concealment abilities, the enemy must surpass him by at least three realms, they needed to have at least reached {Mahesvara King} realm.

This was the power of the Demon King’s armor!

The demonic sea creatures unleashed various spells and techniques to try and flush Gu Qing Shan out.

But even after trying everything, they failed.

『 I can’t find him 』a demonic sea creature said.

『 Me neither 』another demonic sea creature followed up.

『 That despicable rat killed so many of our comrades 』

『 The surrounding space is still being sealed by us 』

『 Which means, he’s still here? 』

After this question, all the demonic sea creatures became tense.

A heavy and dignified voice arrived from inside the group of demonic sea creatures:

『 Not necessarily. Since he was that strong, he might have already left through some unique means 』

All the demonic sea creatures looked back towards the sea creature that said that.

It was a demonic sea creature that wasn’t particularly gigantic.

It was being guarded among all the other demonic sea creatures, calmly observing their surroundings.

Countless flesh tentacles sprouted from its body.

As it was thinking, the tentacles were also constantly moving about.

But quite a few tentacles were already broken or cut off.

It was this demonic sea creature that killed the evil creatures on the ship.

The jade gourd pendant Adorable said that the demonic sea creatures were collecting the Life Mysteries of evil creatures.

Apparently, it was mainly this demonic sea creature that was doing that.

『 What should we do now? 』

A demonic sea creature asked.

The demonic sea creature with writhing tentacles all over its body spoke: 『 Follow the plan and kill all the evil creatures. Let’s accomplish our goal first before anything else 』

『 Protect me well, don’t let anything else unexpected happen 』

The other demonic sea creatures all responded: 『 Understood 』

…

At the same time.

Inside a certain room of the giant ship.

Gu Qing Shan opened his eyes.

Regardless of [Kindling]’s urging, he stayed completely still.

He was silently waiting to see the demonic sea creatures’ reactions.

And now, their leader had shown itself.

When two armies clash, if one side can kill the other side’s commander first, they would naturally drive the other army into chaos and confusion in the middle of battle.

And this didn’t just apply to wars, the same principle applied to many other occasions.

Which meant, it was time for him to truly act.

The Frostlie Staff silently appeared from the void of space and landed in his hand.

Faint killing intent lingered around Gu Qing Shan’s body.

He vanished from the room.

A split second later.

Far above in the sky, a tiny sprite of icy light appeared.

It was the God of Frost and Chill.

As soon as he appeared, he unleashed an attack on the sea creatures below.

Ice Divine Craft, [Silent Seal]!

This was the ultimate ability that the Golden Flame Divinity once described, the strongest Ice-type technique that the God of Frost and Chill could perform!

A faint white ray of frost struck the flesh tentacle monster.

All the demonic sea creatures immediately realized what was going on.

They angrily roared and retaliated.

A group of demonic sea creatures shielded the flesh tentacle monster to prevent it from being attacked again.

The rest of them unleashed their strongest attack towards the Divine King in the sky.

Rays and jets of terrifying power soared through the sky.

Gu Qing Shan simply watched and laughed.

[Silent Seal] was the strongest Ice technique he knew, not only could it freeze the enemy’s body, it would completely freeze their soul and thoughts as well.

At that time, an enemy struck by the technique will enter a ‘brittle’ state in which neither their body and soul could defend against any attacks.

Furthermore, thanks to the characteristics of Elemental Ice, the enemy can be easily broken to dust.

However, the demonic sea creatures reacted and instantly shielded the flesh tentacle monster while retaliating at the same time.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t have the chance to unleash a second attack.

But this wasn’t a tough situation for him at all.

Gu Qing Shan let go of the Frostlie Staff and drew the Chao Yin sword.

At this time, the first attack had already arrived right in front of him!

Gu Qing Shan vanished.

Divine Skill, [Shadow Shift]!

The flesh tentacle monster appeared where Gu Qing Shan originally stood.

Just in time for the countless powerful attacks to strike it head-on.

Even in its peak state, the monster wouldn’t be able to endure this level of attack from so many demonic sea creatures, let alone in its current frozen state.

Bang!

A shattering sound came from the sky above.

The flesh tentacle monster was completely decimated into fine snow powder that fluttered and sprinkled down from above.

The demonic sea creatures were all stunned.

The evil creatures were also stunned.

What kind of maneuver was that?

How did that happen? What else is going to happen?

They didn’t have time to contemplate these questions.

Because Gu Qing Shan was now standing in the very middle of the countless demonic sea creatures.

He raised the Chao Yin sword.

A pair of giant wings of swords manifested behind him.

The frigid Elemental Ice and razor-sharp sword qi mixed and fused together, cutting open black cracks all over the void of space around him.

In the blink of an eye, the Sword Array had been activated!
