The Dead Soul Demon King won't be able to catch up for now.
Sensing what was happening behind him, Gu Qing Shan calmed down.
In order to hunt down the first Fuxi Emperor, the black cloaked skeleton, Gu Qing Shan once used [Even a sea of bitterness will pass] on the ocean.
From the looks of it now, [Even a sea of bitterness will pass] is even more powerful than before.
Could it be because this is a world created by the Old Gods?
Or because this is the Old Gods' mountain of ice and snow, as well as their divine palace?
Regardless, as he held the Chao Yin sword in his hand, Gu Qing Shan felt something — — -
The entire world is acting according to his will.
This doesn't seem like an illusion, but rather the fact that the Chao Yin sword's targets are everywhere in the world.
… Could it be that there's an ocean below us?
Gu Qing Shan was even more doubtful.
He brought Lola with him and flew deeper into the water abyss.
Outside the ice cave.
The Dead Soul Demon King held its head, the intense pain made it unable to suppress its anger anymore.
Why can't I enter the water?
It didn't want to think about this anymore.
In the face of power, all problems will be destroyed.
Roar!!!
The Dead Soul Demon King stood up, wrapped both arms in a silent black glow, and roared as it charged towards the water surface again.
With its great power as a Chaotic Demon Lord, a deep crater was formed on the surface of the water.
Wherever the black glow passed, all the water turned into solid black objects and broke apart.
But the crater only lasted for a split second.
New water flowed up from below, filling up the crater and returning to the smooth surface of the water.
The Dead Soul Demon King didn't stop attacking.
The water continued to replenish itself.
No matter how powerful the Dead Soul Demon King's attacks were, the water would only silently replenish itself.
As if there was no end to it.
Silently, something happened.
This was the divine palace of the Old Gods, the ice mountain of the Old Gods.
As the Dead Soul Demon King continued to attack, the entire ice mountain seemed to have been awakened.
Countless golden mystical runes appeared on every inch of the ice mountain's surface, even the divine palace itself was exuding a vast presence of majesty.
While flying deeper into the water abyss, Gu Qing Shan was surprised to see the changes on the ice mountain.
"Look, those are ancient Divine Script"
Lola pointed at the runes on the ice and exclaimed.
"I see it. No wonder the divine might still exists on this icy peak." Gu Qing Shan said in realization.
He had studied the Spire Keeper Association's Infinite Worlds Dictionary, so he naturally knew that these characters were the most ancient of the 900 million World Layers.
Words created by the Ancient Gods.
These words were extremely rare. If one knew how to use divine power to construct these words, they would be able to imitate simple divine might.
Unfortunately, even then, only a very small number of Divine Descendants knew how to do it.
In the depths of the ice cave.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly felt a vast power.
This kind of power was similar to the Divine Might: Solemn that enveloped the entire icy peak, but its power was dozens of times stronger.
"It's God Power. God Power is being activated by the language of the Ancient Gods and is currently accumulating power." Lola identified it.
Gu Qing Shan nodded.
It seemed that the tricks left behind by the Gods in this world had not dissipated.
On the entire icy peak, all the golden lights connected into one.
The icy blue peak turned into a majestic divine mountain that gave off a golden light.
In a split second, a pillar of golden light shot out from the ice cave that reached all the way to the sky.
The Dead Soul Demon King was enveloped by this pillar of light, broke through the roof of the divine temple, and flew towards the sky.
Under the overwhelming power of this pillar of light, over 200 million demonized Combatants collapsed on the ground, unable to even move.
The golden pillar of light only lasted for a single breath's worth of time before disappearing.
There was no longer any trace of the Dead Soul Demon King in the sky.
The Dead Soul Demon King and God's Might had already turned into a pile of white bone dust that scattered in the snowstorm.
When the golden light disappeared from the sky, the world returned to the gloomy snowstorm.
The Old Gods' snowy peak also returned to its icy blue color.
The demonized Combatants waited for a long while before they dared to slowly stand up.
They stood still, not a single one of them dared to climb up the snowy peak again.
"That was a Chaotic Demon Lord, how did he die just like that?" Lola asked in a daze.
"I think I understand now why [Origin] couldn't get what it wanted" Gu Qing Shan commented.
Indeed, the Old Gods' wills didn't leave this place.
With just over 200 million demonized Combatants, [Origin] couldn't overcome some of the Old Gods' arrangements.
It seems there must be a lot of shocking secrets hidden deep inside this world.
— — -so Triste had such a world.
What was even stranger was that she actually took out such a world.
What was she thinking?
Gu Qing Shan thought for a bit, then asked Lola: "How long has Triste been managing this world?"
"How long?" Lola froze, then recalled: "This world was given to her by my mother, hm, about 6 days ago"
"Why did your mother decide to give this world to her?" Gu Qing Shan immediately asked.
"Because Triste is the leader of the royal guards, tasked with protecting the royal court, and because I'm about to go through my coming of age ceremony, my mother hoped that she would do a good job as a guard, so she gave her this world"
Gu Qing Shan fell into thought: "It's only been 6 days, such a short time …"
"That's right, today is the 6th day"
"When Triste received this world, how did she react at the time?"
"She was very excited, repeatedly thanking my mother for her gift"
"Not counting today, she's only received this world for 5 days, such a short time, she probably isn't very familiar with this world" Gu Qing Shan judged.
Lola thought for a bit, then said: "I remember when she found out that there were ancient creatures in this world just a few days ago, she was very happy"
"That's right, being able to provide [Kindling] with such a large amount of Soul Points, she would definitely be happy" Gu Qing Shan sighed.
While they were talking, Gu Qing Shan brought Lola down through the water.
No matter how fast he went, the water would always avoid him and leave a path for him.
With his full speed, he only needed a few breaths' worth of time to reach the bottom of the mountain from the top of the mountain.
Gu Qing Shan went straight down, passing through the entire mountain.
Through the transparent layer of ice, he could clearly see the densely packed crowd of demonized Combatants on the other side of the ice. He could even see the subtle expressions on their faces.
If he slowed down time, he would be able to see a miraculous scene.
Outside the ice mountain, the demonized Combatants were staring at Gu Qing Shan and Lola, their eyes full of anger and unwillingness.
— — -but with the Dead Soul Demon King as an example, they didn't dare to go to the top again.
Inside the ice mountain, Gu Qing Shan was holding Lola, silently diving into the water like a meteor falling from the sky.
Both sides stared at each other, then moved away.
Time quickly passed.
Gu Qing Shan had reached the bottom of the ice mountain.
The ice was mixed with the water, moving slowly and sluggishly through the ice mountain, but as soon as it reached the bottom, the ice would disappear without a trace.
The water here was extremely turbulent, if he didn't use any spells, he would be swept away without a trace.
There was nothing inside the clear blue water.
Gu Qing Shan glanced at the War God UI.
Apparently because this was a world created by the Old Gods, the rate at which his Soul Points was being consumed was very slow, about 1 Soul Points every 3 seconds.
If that's the case, with how much Soul Points Gu Qing Shan had, he didn't need to worry too much.
Gu Qing Shan swung the Chao Yin sword to avoid the water and dived straight into the depths of the water.
A few dozen meters.
A few hundred meters.
A few thousand meters.
10,000 meters.
The Chao Yin sword finally sent a message.
While diving, Gu Qing Shan sensed the Chao Yin sword's message.
After a while, he suddenly understood.
He raised the Chao Yin sword and asked: "This world is the same as the Shen Wu world of the Age of Old, an ocean?"
The Chao Yin sword tapped the tip of its blade.
"That can't be right, if it's an ocean, why haven't I seen a single ancient creature?" Gu Qing Shan asked again.
This time, the Chao Yin sword pointed below the water and let out a continuous' wu wu 'sound.
Gu Qing Shan seriously listened.
He was able to communicate with the Chao Yin sword through telepathy, so at this moment, what the Chao Yin sword was telling him was a bit unbelievable.
"The world … is hidden under the ocean huh …"
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
At this point, he had reached the bottom of the ocean.
Below him, a layer of blue ice had condensed into a shell.
Through this thin layer of ice, Gu Qing Shan could see the scenery below.
Mountains.
Rivers.
Earth.
And most importantly — — -
Cities.
Cities after cities were glowing brightly in the darkness of the night.
As Gu Qing Shan stared at everything below, he felt an indescribable sense of shock.
He suddenly understood one thing.
Triste's collection world was covered in ice and snow, so everyone mistakenly thought that this was the case.
But it wasn't.
What was covered in ice and snow was only the outer layer of the world.
Underneath the ice and snow was an ocean.
Hidden beneath the vast ocean was a civilization left behind by the ancient gods!
