Following the chanting of the 6 Guardian Deities, the icy sword let out a loud howl of pain.
In a split second, the hundreds of thousands of howls of pain stopped.
By the time the six Guardian Gods disappeared, the Ice Sword no longer made any sound.
The black cloaked skeleton's expression changed and spoke in a gloomy tone: 「 You dared to hurt my sword, seems like I'll have to spend a bit more effort, but that's fine, your soul will compensate me 」
He clasped his hands together.
Following the black cloaked skeleton's actions, everything in the world became silent.
The dark clouds and cold rain that covered the capital's outskirts disappeared.
A mass of greyish-yellow mist quickly rose.
Gu Qing Shan scowled.
Something powerful must have appeared to be able to interfere with reality and cause such a phenomenon.
I didn't think it would have such an ability.
He raised his guard.
The black cloaked skeleton opened his hands.
A drop of water silently floated in his hands.
The dark yellow drop of water was covered in mist, giving off an indescribable sense of fear.
The black cloaked skeleton carefully held the drop of water.
「 It took me over 1000 years to get it 」
The black cloaked skeleton couldn't help but sigh.
Its tone was filled with an unprecedented sense of pride.
「 In the entire hell of Huang Quan, no dead person has ever obtained a drop of Forgetting River water like I did 」
As the black cloaked skeleton spoke, the endless water vapor behind him condensed into a large river.
It was using the power of Water of the 5 Elements to manifest a large river that stretched across the sky.
The black cloaked skeleton sent the drop of Forgetting River water into the large river behind him.
The entire river turned a faint yellow color.
— — -it looked a bit like the Forgetting River, but much weaker.
At this moment, the two swords next to Gu Qing Shan both moved.
The Chao Yin sword seemed to be sensing something.
The Earth sword spoke: 「 Be careful! Any living being that comes into contact with the Forgetting River water will lose all of their memories, this is the Law of the Samsara 」
Losing all of their memories would turn them into a defenseless idiot.
The black cloaked skeleton could easily take their lives.
Gu Qing Shan felt tense and replied: "I understand"
The black cloaked skeleton moved its finger.
The great yellow river immediately encircled it.
With the Forgetting River's water forming this kind of defense, the black cloaked skeleton was already in an invincible position.
The black cloaked skeleton excitedly and madly spoke: "This is a Killer Technique that I specifically prepared for the human realm, you can die now"
It waved its hand.
The dim yellow river rushed towards Gu Qing Shan with a monstrous momentum.
Gu Qing Shan flew backwards.
The black-robed skeleton laughed loudly and said, "What are you running for? It's useless! The speed of this river is not inferior to your flying sword! "
Gu Qing Shan retreated even faster.
At this time, the Chao Yin sword suddenly let out an urgent 'wu wu' sound.
"Hold you? What are you doing? "
Gu Qing Shan asked curiously.
In Shen Wu world, he once obtained a Thaumaturgy called [Telepathy].
[Telepathy]: Allows you to naturally understand the meaning of the artifact spirit.
Up until now, Gu Qing Shan was able to understand whatever the Chao Yin sword was trying to convey.
— — except for the Chao Yin sword's Thaumaturgy [Passing Even Sea of Bitterness].
Regarding this Thaumaturgy, Gu Qing Shan couldn't understand what the Chao Yin sword was trying to convey.
But now, since the Chao Yin sword wanted to fight, Gu Qing Shan grabbed its hilt.
At the same time, a notification popped up on the War God UI.
[The Chao Yin sword is requesting to use your Soul Points, a total of 100]
[Would you like to allow it to use your Soul Points?]
This was the same as before.
When the Fuxi Emperor crushed the ice orb, a flood came down from the sky.
The Chao Yin sword used Gu Qing Shan's Soul Points to help it avoid the flood.
That time, the Chao Yin sword used 10 Soul Points.
But now, it's asking for 100 Soul Points!
Gu Qing Shan didn't hesitate and answered right away: "Allow!"
A new notification popped up.
[The Chao Yin sword has received 100 Soul Points]
An invisible gust of wind drifted around Gu Qing Shan, extending from his body to the Chao Yin sword.
The Chao Yin sword's tip was trembling.
It seems to be preparing for something.
The yellow river was approaching, almost catching up to Gu Qing Shan's retreating speed.
The river was about to reach him.
The intense wind was already causing Gu Qing Shan to lose his balance.
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to retreat as fast as he could.
The black cloaked skeleton crossed its arms, slightly tilting its head.
From the looks of it, it seems to be enjoying what it's seeing.
Suddenly, the black cloaked skeleton raised both of its hands.
A giant wave rose from the river, blocking out the sun.
「 Die! 」 the black cloaked skeleton roared.
The giant wave came crashing down.
The Chao Yin sword suddenly let out an explosive roar towards the wave.
Gu Qing Shan understood what it meant.
Gritting his teeth, he raised the Chao Yin sword and pointed it at the wave.
Fine, if I can't do it, I'll just run away at the last moment.
I need to believe in my sword first!
Gu Qing Shan only had enough time to think that before the giant wave blocked out all the light from the sky, bringing darkness with it as it crashed down.
Boom!
The rushing wave first hit the tip of the Chao Yin sword.
Then it turned towards Gu Qing Shan — — -
No, there's no 'then'.
In a split second, the raging river was sucked into the tip of the Chao Yin sword, disappearing without a trace.
The sky-covering river was sucked dry by the Chao Yin sword in a single breath's worth of time.
All the supernatural phenomena in the sky also disappeared.
The dark clouds and cold rain once again appeared.
Gu Qing Shan was stunned, still holding his sword.
"…" the black cloaked skeleton.
"…" Gu Qing Shan.
The Chao Yin sword jumped a bit in Gu Qing Shan's hand.
Then it jumped again.
Then it started to jump rhythmically.
Gu Qing Shan's heart tightened, lowered his voice and asked: "What is it?"
While the Chao Yin sword was jumping, it also let out a 'wu wu' sound.
Treasure! Treasure! Treasure! Treasure!
This is a treasure!
That's what it means.
Gu Qing Shan could feel the Chao Yin sword's joy.
Which means … it actually ate an entire river?
Gu Qing Shan silently thought.
That river contained a drop of Forgetting River water.
Forgetting River water contains the power of the Samsara Laws, so it's naturally a treasure.
Seeing how much the black cloaked skeleton treasured it, that drop of Forgetting River water must be extremely hard to obtain.
But the Chao Yin sword managed to steal the Forgetting River water.
That's a bit …
The black cloaked skeleton seemed to have just woken up from a dream and shouted: "Give me back the Forgetting River water!"
Gu Qing Shan puffed out her chest and spoke with a stern expression: "Where is this Forgetting River water, why haven't I seen it before?"
"That is a treasure that I spent over a thousand years to obtain" the skeleton gritted his teeth: "Very well, I'm going to make sure you die without a proper burial!"
He pointed at the ice sword and shouted, "Skeleton Grudge."
Balls of icy white mist erupted from the Ice Sword.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Ten armored skeletons with crowns on their heads appeared from the white mist in two rows.
Countless black mist condensed into countless ghostly figures that surrounded the skeletons, howling and howling.
The black cloaked skeleton let out an eerie laugh: 「 These aren't clones, they're Fuxi Empire's Emperors, they've all fought their way to the top through blood and steel 」
His voice became oppressive: "If you know what's good for you, give me back the Forgetting River water, that way I'll leave your corpse intact"
This was the black cloaked skeleton's strongest trump card, with these monsters in the past, he was always able to survive in the Frozen Hell.
"Go, kill him, then slaughter the entire city, I want the souls of every living person!" the black cloaked skeleton roared.
"Soul … Soul …" The Skeletal Demons of Resentment roared hoarsely in unison.
Gu Qing Shan looked at the 20 Skeleton Grudge Demons.
Each of the Grudge Demons was holding a different weapon in their hands.
They must have all sorts of powerful abilities.
Behind these Skeleton Grudge Demons, the black cloaked skeleton wielded his icy sword, waiting for a chance to strike.
They were really going to start from here, kill their way through, kill him, and then kill the entire capital.
The 20 Skeleton Grudge all roared at once.
One of the Skeleton Grudge Demons suddenly disappeared and reappeared in front of Gu Qing Shan!
It swung its giant axe at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan raised the Chao Yin sword, parried it, then swung forward again.
The sword passed through the Skeleton Grudge Demon's neck.
A black mist was carried by the blade of the sword, flying out from the Skeleton Grudge Demon's neck.
The Skeleton Grudge Demon's head was still on its neck.
It roared and swung at Gu Qing Shan again.
Gu Qing Shan scanned the surroundings with his inner sight, only to see the 20 Skeleton Grudge Demons rushing towards him.
He hurriedly retreated.
「 The Skeleton Grudge Demons are already classified as demonic gods, living beings definitely can't win against them 」 the black cloaked skeleton gritted his teeth: 「 I'll let them skin you alive right now, then slowly look for my Forgetting River water 」
While retreating, Gu Qing Shan tried to think of a way to deal with it.
The black cloaked skeleton's words were also a clue.
Living beings can't win against demonic gods?
If I can't even hurt them with every strike, then I'm sure they won't be easy to deal with.
While he was thinking, a line of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.
[The Earth sword requests to absorb your Soul Points]
[If you agree, the Earth sword will use your Soul Points at a rate of 10 Soul Points per second]
[Because you are recognized by the Earth sword as its wielder, it won't drain all your Soul Points during the process of using your Soul Points, your safety will be guaranteed]
[Do you agree?]
Gu Qing Shan glanced at it and muttered: "Why are you doing this as well?"
The Earth sword's heavy voice came: 「 These things are indeed about to become the lowest Demon Lord, how about you release your Soul Points and let me communicate with them 」
"You want to communicate with them?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The Earth sword answered with a resounding voice: 「 Indeed, if they were only dead people, then it's fine, but since they've become Demon Lords, I can counter them 」
For some reason, Gu Qing Shan suddenly recalled the System's description of the Earth sword.
[Earth sword, weighs 86,370,000 tons, has the Spirit Thaumaturgy: Bear Your Own Weight]
[This sword was a divine weapon used to offer sacrifices to the world in the Age of Old, capable of communicating with the Divinities]
— — -it had even 'communicated' with the Huang Quan Hellspawn before.
The 20 Skeleton Grudge Demons flew forward.
Gu Qing Shan continued to retreat.
The black cloaked skeleton laughed: "It took me a long time and a lot of effort to turn them into the Skeletal Grudge Demons, they are the reason for me to become a King"
Gu Qing Shan ignored it and checked her combat record and Soul Points.
[Remaining Soul Points, the Chao Yin sword just used up 100 Soul Points.
After killing so many clones, my Soul Points only increased by 1.6 …
There's no time to think about that right now, so Gu Qing Shan answered right away: "I agree to pay Soul Points"
A calculator appeared on the War God UI.
His Soul Power was disappearing at a rate of 10 points per second.
「 With your Soul Points, I can finally unleash my full power! 」 the Earth sword spoke with a resounding voice.
"What should I do?" Gu Qing Shan loudly asked.
「 Do what you usually do 」 the Earth sword replied.
Gu Qing Shan stopped in mid-air, then turned around and charged back.
Seeing this from afar, the black cloaked skeleton chuckled: 「 The body of a Demonic Lord, humans can't do anything to it 」
The Skeleton Grudge Demons all raised their weapons to receive the enemy.
Gu Qing Shan turned into a large white crescent sword phantom and charged into the horde of Skeleton Grudges.
The sword phantom clashed with the Skeleton Grudges' weapons.
A blinding sword phantom flew through the sky, flying far away.
The Skeleton Grudges that faced the sword phantom didn't even seem to exist, unable to stop it at all.
All of a sudden, all the Skeleton Grudges screamed in fear.
They stood stiffly in midair, their bodies emitting wisps of gray mist as they plummeted to the ground.
The white crescent sword phantom also disappeared. Gu Qing Shan and the Earth sword reappeared.
A gust of wind blew past.
The twenty crowned Skeletal Grudge Devils turned into ashes and dissipated in the wind.
Only innumerable sprites of light remained, silently dancing around the Earth Sword.
Half of the sprites of light were absorbed into the Earth sword, while the other half entered between Gu Qing Shan's eyebrows.
The Earth sword let out a satisfied 'ring'.
「 Communication complete 」 it spoke with a solemn tone.
"That's impressive …" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
「 They can't even be considered as the lowest level of Demonic Lords, of course they couldn't stop our combined power 」 the Earth sword spoke in a low voice.
The Soul Points consumption on the War God UI had stopped.
The entire battle only took 5 seconds, which was 50 Soul Power points.
A few lines of notification popped up.
[You and the Earth sword have split the spoils of war evenly]
[You've obtained 100 Soul Points]
"Leftover Soul Points, that's a great deal.
But as a Demonic Lord, why did the Skeleton Grudges give so little Soul Points?
Perhaps guessing what Gu Qing Shan was thinking, the War God UI explained: [These monsters are a bit weak, but they can't even be considered as the lowest level of Demonic Lords]
Silence all around.
Gu Qing Shan noticed something was off and looked up at the black cloaked skeleton.
His inner sight had been focused on the black cloaked skeleton, but he didn't see any reaction from it.
The black cloaked skeleton stood still in mid-air.
The skeleton didn't move at all.
The skeleton slowly raised its hand, pointing at Gu Qing Shan: 「 My Skeleton Grudge … give it back … 」
Gu Qing Shan spoke with a serious expression: "I'm sorry, I didn't see any Skeleton Grudges"
The black cloaked skeleton trembled.
