Gu Qing Shan looked at the long flight of stairs.
At the top of the stairs.
A black screen of light decorated with dazzling starlight covered the entire arena, similar to how it looked before the curtains were drawn.
Gu Qing Shan released his inner sight to touch the black screen, only to be bounced back.
Seems like the situation inside the arena couldn't be seen from the outside.
"So mysterious."
Gu Qing Shan muttered in a low voice.
Holding the Six Paths Great Mountain sword tightly in his hand, he flew up the stairs.
1800 steps passed in the blink of an eye.
Gu Qing Shan crashed into the black screen.
The world was spinning.
He suddenly landed on an empty field.
The ground was covered in snow.
Cold wind was blowing in the sky.
All around him was a vast wilderness.
Night had fallen.
Gu Qing Shan crouched down and grabbed a handful of snow.
It was cold to the touch.
This feeling was so real that Gu Qing Shan was a bit surprised.
"Was this all caused by the Devil King Warden Rod?" he asked.
"Yes, it's so powerful, even without a weapon spirit, the scepter itself is still able to wield a whole host of Thaumaturgies, how unimaginable" Shannu replied.
"Even without a weapon spirit, it's still so powerful, no wonder it could fight against the Divinities of several worlds" Gu Qing Shan sighed emotionally.
The faint sound of music could be heard from the wind.
Gu Qing Shan followed the sound and looked afar.
At the edge of the wilderness was an endless ocean.
A large ship was anchored by the shore.
Under the night sky, the entire ship was brightly lit.
Out of nowhere, a message appeared in Gu Qing Shan's mind.
It was the Devil King Warden Rod's request from afar.
"Boarding the ship …" Gu Qing Shan muttered.
He suddenly thrust his sword forward.
From the darkness, a lion suddenly jumped forward, about to roar.
It was originally preparing to ambush Gu Qing Shan, but didn't expect Gu Qing Shan to suddenly attack.
This attack came without any warning, so the lion couldn't dodge at all.
Am I the one being ambushed? A strange thought popped up in the lion's mind.
The long sword pierced through its open mouth, all the way into its body.
The pouncing lion seemed to have taken the initiative to skewer itself on the sword.
"Ao ao ao ao ao ao!"
The lion's four claws dangled in the air as it howled miserably.
"Animal — — ah, I mean, friend from the Beast King realm, did you want to greet me?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The lion hurriedly nodded.
Whoosh!
Gu Qing Shan pulled out her sword.
The lion was freed at once.
It let out a ferocious roar!
"Roar! Damn humans, I — "
Whoosh!
The sword pierced into the lion's mouth again, skewering the entire lion.
The Six Paths Great Mountain sword was a bit longer than normal swords, so piercing through the lion's body wasn't an issue.
Gu Qing Shan raised her sword.
The lion was skewered on the sword, its four claws in the air, but it was helpless.
"Buddy, I'm new here, your attitude will scare me," Gu Qing Shan said sincerely.
"Ao ao ao! Howl howl! "
The lion howled and begged for mercy.
This time, it behaved itself.
It couldn't evade the other party's sword at all.
Obviously, the other party was terrifyingly strong and could take its life at any moment.
"Let's talk nicely, do you agree?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The lion nodded to express its agreement.
The sword was pulled back.
"Then, friend from the Beast King realm, why aren't you trying to board the ship and instead loitering around here?" Gu Qing Shan asked.
The lion sat down on the ground and dejectedly said: "I've already chosen, what's the point of going?"
"That can't be right, as far as I know, the Blood River Hell still hasn't chosen the final Combatant" Gu Qing Shan said.
The lion answered: "They've already chosen, but due to that Combatant's personality, he didn't want to board the ship just like that"
"Didn't want to board the ship?" Gu Qing Shan scowled.
"That's right, he still hasn't eaten enough"
The lion seemed to remember something and shivered.
"Eat?"
"You'll understand when you see" the lion slowly spoke, as if trying to gauge Gu Qing Shan's strength.
While the man and the lion were talking, countless dead people quietly surrounded them.
Giants, Fiendkind, wild beasts, chaotic creatures, Asuras, there were too many to count.
"An unfamiliar face" someone muttered.
"He's not a Combatant from our hell"
"Does anyone know him?"
Gu Qing Shan looked at the crowd of dead and stroked the lion's head: "I'm his friend, I heard that he wants to become the Devil King, so I came to watch him compete"
The dead froze.
"I've never seen him before, everyone, let's get rid of this fledgling!" the lion shouted.
The dead all rushed forward.
"How heartbreaking" Gu Qing Shan commented.
From the darkness, a giant white moonlight manifested from thin air.
A single strike. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
Before the blood could even fall, it was already blown away by the sharp wind generated by the sword.
The moonlight slowly faded away.
Gu Qing Shan appeared with a serious expression.
As soon as the sword phantoms illuminated the surroundings, he saw an endless sea of dead.
All the Combatants of the Blood River Hell were gathered in the wilderness.
Among the dead, there wasn't even a place for them to stand.
They were fighting in the most primitive way possible, trying to find the joy of killing.
But they only dared to kill each other, none of them dared to approach the ship.
From the looks of it, one of the strongest Combatants had arrived near the ship.
However, that Combatant seemed to have a different idea, so he didn't board the ship.
"Seems like I need to hurry"
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
Despite saying that, he simply stood still with the Six Paths Great Mountain sword on his shoulder.
"Aren't we going to fight for the Devil King title?" Shannu couldn't help but ask.
"That's right, but there's an endless sea of dead from here, how long are we going to fight for?" Gu Qing Shan scowled and said.
"So you're just going to stand here?" Shannu asked.
While they were talking, a mammoth charged forward.
It stomped down on Gu Qing Shan.
「 Puny human, die! Turn into minced meat! 」
The mammoth roared in a frenzy.
A blinding sword phantom slashed through the void of space.
The mammoth froze on the spot, unable to move at all.
Gu Qing Shan had activated [Freeze], turning it into a sitting duck for a short period of time.
Two seconds later, seven strikes had passed.
A few moments later, seven flickering lights appeared on the sword.
The lights were resonating, as if calling out to something.
Gu Qing Shan exerted all her strength, wielded the sword with both hands and slashed forward.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
Lightning surged from the longsword.
The blinding lightning illuminated the entire wilderness, turning it into a world of flickering light.
[Seven Stars Flowing Dragon]!
A giant dragon head made of lightning flew out from the sword and bit the mammoth in its mouth.
The mammoth lost all signs of life in the blink of an eye.
Following that, a dragon made of both sword phantoms and lightning flew out from the sword.
"Wait a bit" Gu Qing Shan called out.
The lightning dragon seemed to be sentient as it circled in the air.
Gu Qing Shan flew on top of the dragon's head.
Roar!!!
The lightning dragon let out an earth-shattering roar and flew up.
Gu Qing Shan pointed the sword forward.
The lightning dragon turned into a streak of lightning, flying across the entire wilderness in a single breath.
The wind was howling past her ears.
The scenery around her was quickly disappearing.
The dead that crowded the entire wilderness were at a loss in the face of the power of the Heavenly Thunder.
In the blink of an eye, the ship had arrived.
Gu Qing Shan could even see the situation on the ship.
A dozen dead were standing on the ship, each forming a small circle.
Gu Qing Shan saw the 7 leaders of hell that she met before.
The lightning dragon was so eye-catching that the 7 leaders also noticed Gu Qing Shan standing on top of its head.
The expressions on the 7 leaders' faces were very strange.
Gu Qing Shan ignored them for now and looked down at the side of the ship.
A giant the size of a small mountain was sitting in front of the ship.
The giant had started a fire, occasionally throwing some dying dead into the fire to roast.
Some of the roasted dead were caught by the giant and stuffed into his mouth.
Ignoring the screams of pain coming from his mouth, the giant continued to chew.
— — seems like he was the entity that the lion mentioned.
The giant also noticed the lightning dragon.
He cautiously stood up with a battle axe in his hand.
"Roasting living people to eat? Your retribution has come "
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
He pointed his sword forward.
The giant lightning dragon flew down from the sky.
The lightning dragon opened its mouth wide and bit the giant.
The giant swung his battle axe, but the blade of the axe went straight through the flashing lightning and missed.
The lightning dragon bit the giant.
"Aaaargh!"
The giant screamed in pain.
An Ascended realm late stage sword saint using [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon] at full power, its power was nothing short of extraordinary.
Very quickly, the giant's body gave off a burnt smell.
He fell down and extinguished the fire.
It was now that Gu Qing Shan landed.
He immediately received a formless message.
