The light shone into the depths of the ocean, illuminating the dark ocean with a faint blue hue.
The gentle voice resounded again:
「 This black dragon appears to be a dragon-type lifeform, but it is actually a super Soul Artifact born for war — — the one who created it must have put in a lot of effort 」
"It's a unique existence."
「 … But I can sense an extremely powerful malicious hex on its body 」
「 I am currently busy commanding and dealing with the plague, so I have no time to deal with your matters. Bring Dragon King of Atrocity Jail to the sealed area to find me 」
The voice slowly faded away.
The light rose from the ocean and disappeared without a trace.
Only the black dragon's body was still enveloped in a layer of holy white light.
The black dragon comfortably fell asleep inside this white light.
If Gu Qing Shan was still conscious, he would see a few lines of glowing text appearing on the War God UI:
[You've received the Serpent King's blessing]
[The Wicked Thoughts Burning Spirit Talisman you were afflicted with has been slightly dispelled, the duration of this curse has been shortened by one hour]
The white light enveloping the black dragon's body slowly shrunk and dimmed.
The black dragon seemed to have sensed it and quickly shrunk his body, returning to human form and leaving himself inside the light.
A few moments later.
The light finally disappeared.
Gu Qing Shan muttered a few words of dissatisfaction before falling asleep again.
The giant beetle swam over and carefully caught him.
「 I'm going to bring him to see the king, who wants to come with me? 」 the giant beetle proudly asked.
"Me!"
"Count me in"
"Me too"
"Me!"
The monsters all hurriedly called out.
— — according to the king, this lifeform Soul Artifact had been struck by the hex.
Being able to win against Gergard while being afflicted by the hex, there was no need to doubt its strength.
This was his most difficult time, if I don't take this chance to curry his favor and befriend him, would I have to wait until later?
Once he recovers, why would he bother with me?
The giant beetle was about to leave with Gu Qing Shan on its back when it recalled something and asked Gergard: "Are you coming?"
The twin-headed sea serpent scoffed: 「 Bringing this guy to see our king will only cause him trouble. You should know, he's already having a hard time 」
After a moment of silence, the giant beetle said, "I'm just following the king's orders."
After that, it carried Gu Qing Shan and floated up to the surface of the sea.
Behind it, dozens of monsters followed closely.
The monsters floated to the surface of the sea and looked around.
The sky had already turned dusky yellow. Dark gray, dark green, and dark red mist streaked across the sky like meteors, continuously falling into the depths of the earth.
"Another seven or eight new plagues …" The giant beetle groaned.
"Strange, we've already defeated several dozen plagues, why are there still new plagues appearing?" one of the monsters asked in confusion.
Gu Qing Shan seemed to have heard this. She turned over on the shell and murmured, "Dozens of them are nothing. There are more than a thousand of them."
The monsters looked at each other, speechless.
Dealing with the dozens of plagues that had appeared previously had already caused everyone to suffer heavy losses. If there really were more than a thousand plagues, wouldn't they be doomed?
「 He's talking in his sleep 」 the giant beetle said.
The monsters looked at Gu Qing Shan.
He slept soundly.
「 So he's just talking nonsense, that's good 」
「 That's right, I was scared to death just now 」
They heaved a sigh of relief.
The giant beetle went silent for a bit, then confirmed the direction, flapped its wings, and abruptly sped up.
The monsters quickly followed.
After flying for about 10 minutes, Gu Qing Shan suddenly said: "There's a terrible stench ahead, don't go any further"
The giant beetle paused.
After thinking for a few seconds, it flapped its wings, drew an arc in the air, and flew to the other side.
The monsters had no choice but to follow.
"Oi, Purple Star, you're going too far like that" one of the monsters called out.
"That's right, he's talking in his sleep" another monster replied.
Purple Star didn't say anything and continued to fly around.
After flying for a few more minutes — — -
Gu Qing Shan laid on top of the shell and pointed:
"That way, that way!"
The giant beetle immediately flew in the direction he pointed.
At this point, a monster with a giant shell on its back jumped out and stopped the giant beetle, loudly calling out: "Purple Star, why aren't you taking the Deep Space Cableway?"
The giant beetle hovered in the air and replied: "The Deep Space Cableway might be a bit off, I'll listen to Dragon King of Atrocity Jail"
"He's asleep, not to mention, the Deep Space Cableway is heavily guarded, it's very safe — — flying around randomly like that is only delaying time" the monster berated him.
The giant beetle didn't know how to explain.
The monster continued: "You're letting down King's expectations, I can't accept this, quickly give Dragon King of Atrocity Jail to me, I'll take him to the Deep Space Cableway and quickly meet King!"
Before the giant beetle could understand the meaning of this, a sleep-talking voice resounded from behind him:
"Who's … talking?"
The giant beetle replied: "A snail"
"A snail?" the other person repeated.
"Yes, a snail"
"Why is it able to remain in this world?"
The giant beetle explained: "It's very powerful — — but that's not the main point. It's the only snail in history that can fart, and because of this unique characteristic, it has the right to remain in this world"
"Hah …"
The person on his back seemed to sneer coldly and raised his hand to point out a finger.
— — what does that mean?
The monsters were all curious.
Gu Qing Shan abruptly sat up and shouted: "Snail! I want to bake it, make it together with fish and butter pancakes! Together with some chilled liquor, it'll be a top-notch delicacy!!! "
After shouting, she yawned, slowly laid back down, closed her eyes, and stopped moving.
The monsters froze.
We're clearly trying to steal the right to carry Dragon King of Atrocity Jail to meet King, why … why did we suddenly talk about eating?
They suddenly recalled how this person turned into a dragon earlier and pinned the twin-headed snake to the ground, chewing on it until his mouth was full of blood while shouting 'delicious blood'.
Hm …
Dragon King of Atrocity Jail's recipe includes snails?
He even eats twin-headed sea snakes.
Could it be an omnivore?
That's right … that makes sense.
That makes sense.
The monsters all felt a chill down their spines, not daring to even breathe too loudly.
The snail monster was trembling in fear, then twisted its body to make way.
Indeed, it wanted to please King, but it definitely didn't want to offer itself as a cooking ingredient.
None of the monsters dared to stop the giant beetle.
— — -no one could be sure whether or not Dragon King of Atrocity Jail's recipe actually included them.
The giant beetle wasn't worried about this at all, so it flapped its wings and continued flying forward.
Following that.
As long as Gu Qing Shan asked to change directions, the giant beetle would do as she said.
About half an hour later, they suddenly ran into a group of fleeing monsters.
The giant beetle called them back, then hurriedly asked: "Strange, where did you come from?"
"The Deep Space Cableway" the monsters were still panicking, breathing heavily as they replied.
"What happened?" the giant beetle asked.
"Over a dozen types of plague descended on that place at once, the defense line instantly collapsed"
The monsters all went silent.
We almost lost our lives, it's a good thing we didn't take that path!
Everyone felt even more reverence towards Dragon King of Atrocity Jail.
About half an hour later, the group of monsters finally arrived at their destination.
This was a vast expanse of white snow, with withered trees all over the place, covered in a layer of white frost.
Behind the forest, there were lofty mountains and precipitous ridges with no end in sight.
The monsters landed far away, carefully maintaining their distance from the frost on the ground.
"The white frost on the trees has increased again" one of the monsters commented.
"That's right, I wonder how much longer our world can last" another monster commented.
The monsters were all worriedly staring at the withered forest.
Every single tree was covered in a thick layer of pure white frost.
A gust of wind blew.
The chill was bone-chilling.
The giant beetle slowly moved forward and told the withered forest: "King, I've brought Dragon King of Atrocity Jail here"
A holy white light descended from above and struck Gu Qing Shan's body.
As soon as Gu Qing Shan showed an expression of comfort, the light quickly disappeared.
A gentle voice then resounded:
"The number of plagues I can deal with has already reached its limit, but the number of plagues suddenly increased by several hundred, so I had no choice but to use my energy to manifest them on the surface of my body"
"But these plagues seem to be able to communicate with one another, they fused with my energy to form some sort of sealing power that sealed me away"
"Because of that, I no longer have enough power to dispel his hex"
The monsters.
"King, are you alright?" the giant beetle asked caringly.
The gentle voice sighed: "It's hard to say, I'm afraid I'm also — –"
Gu Qing Shan abruptly jumped up and shouted towards the withered forest: "Light! I want that kind of light! Where's the light? Why didn't you give it to me? "
"I'm sorry, my power isn't enough to dispel your hex" the gentle voice spoke apologetically.
"No, I want that kind of light! If you don't give it to me, I'll eat all of your power! "
Gu Qing Shan turned into an orange cat and leapt towards the white frost.
