Chapter 1668: Manipulator of Song and Dance!
Translator: La0o9
“The opponent is really strong, Gu Qing Shan, are we really going to get involved?” Laura asked.
Gu Qing Shan replied: “After all, we ate his food, drank his drinks, received a cookbook from him, then was noticed by the Utopia thanks to him and received that invitation——- all in all, we owe Ironman a favor”
Laura said: “Then—–“
Gu Qing Shan followed: “Let’s go!”
The two of them suddenly vanished.
…
The Ironman Vengeance Corps’ camp.
The burly man was moving at a rapid pace around Liao Xiao Pao.
He continuously attacked Liao Xiao Pao from various angles, attempting to look for Liao Xiao Pao’s weakness.
Each of his attacks carried numerous overlapping illusions that made it difficult to discern them.
———this was a result of Gu Qing Shan awakening [Phase Sight] that he managed to see those overlapping powers, other people wouldn’t even see the attacks.
Standing in a distance, Gu Qing Shan could even see hundreds of armored monsters attacking Liao Xiao Pao at once.
That illusion only lasted for a brief moment before it vanished.
Liao Xiao Pao was sent flying into the sky.
“Too slow! Too slow! Liao Xiao Pao, you don’t even have a chance to attack, so how are you supposed to fight me now?” the burly man mockingly laughed.
Liao Xiao Pao remained silent.
He was using his metal fists to protect his vitals, gritting his teeth while enduring the barrage of attacks.
Laura raised her umbrella and commented.
Both of them were still under the effects of [Infinite Worlds Shelter].
Gu Qing Shan didn’t say anything.
Lines of glowing text had appeared in front of his eyes:
[You’ve prepared to activate Spirit Art: ‘Manipulator of Song and Dance’]
[You’ve discovered four prerequisites for activating this Spirit Art]
[Prerequisite 1: Silence. To perform this Spirit Art, you must currently be in a moment of absolute silence]
[Prerequisite 2: Passion. To perform this Spirit Art, you must first attack 999 times]
[Prerequisite 3: Anticipation. To perform this Spirit Art, you must fully draw the other party’s attention to yourself and your actions]
[Prerequisite 4: Focus. To perform this Spirit Art, you cannot use any abilities that requires Realm Points before this one on your opponent]
[All four of these conditions must be achieved in order for ‘Manipulator of Song and Dance’ to activate]
Gu Qing Shan was silently surprised.
Silence, Passion, Anticipation, and Focus, all four of these conditions are quite harsh.
Why are there so many prerequisites?
——perhaps, this Spirit Art was exceptionally powerful?
Feeling curious, he couldn’t help himself: “Laura, stand aside for now, I want to try something”
“I’ll immediately move away when you attack”
Laura lifted her flower umbrella, preparing to jump down from his shoulder.
Gu Qing Shan warmed up his hands a bit, then grasped the twin swords Heaven and Earth from the void of space.
He equipped the War God Title: [Shen Wei General], which would increase his attack speed by 20%.
Everything was ready.
Three skeletons descended from the sky and landed behind him.
Four-sided Demon King!
At this point, the burly man was still immersed in his attack, loudly laughing: “Don’t even think about hitting me with any of the attacks you’re famous for, but all I need to do is continually hitting you like this to torture you to death!”
Bam——
Liao Xiao Pao was struck by an airborne attack into the ground, forming a large crater.
The burly man stood at the edge of the crater and grinned: “Next up is the final attack”
A glowing illusory world started to manifest from the void of space behind his back——–
In that instant, Gu Qing Shan moved.
Laura leapt back while he rushed forward, the 16 swords around him moving to unleash dazzling sword phantoms.
Clang clang clang clang clang!
Numerous sounds of defense could be heard.
Numerous soldiers appeared behind the man, each of which wielded a shield to protect him.
They were spirits from a Phase Realm!
They ensured that the burly man would not suffer any ambushes!
“Hah? So there’s still an insect remaining?”
The burly man didn’t turn around and only grinned even brighter.
Gu Qing Shan’s expression was unchanged, but he had instantly changed his strategy.
An autumn water-like blue steel sword flew into the sky and transformed into Shannu.
“COME!” Shannu loudly shouted.
She had activated the Title Skill, [Star Flame War God]
The fluorescent soldiers were unable to help themselves heading into the sky to attack Shannu.
——there was no one left behind the burly man.
“Huh?” the burly man exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Qing Shan gazed at him.
A flash of lightning!
The burly man was struck by the iris technique, then was restrained by the embrace of a wraith that prevented him from moving.
The remaining 15 swords around Gu Qing Shan left afterimages all over as they swung over a hundred times in a split second.
Suddenly, a spirit with a water vase in their hand appeared from the void of space.
This spirit held onto the vase while light emerged from the vase to illuminate the burly man’s body.
The burly man instantly regained his freedom and angrily roared:
“Scram!”
Gu Qing Shan’s pupils became dilated.
His attacks are very fast!
He only managed to put up a sword in front of himself before being sent flying by the burly man.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI:
[You’ve fulfilled the conditions to activate ‘Realm Spirit Descent’, but you didn’t activate it]
[You’ve struck the enemy a total of 996 times, you still need to attack another 3 times in order to fulfil the second prerequisite of ‘Manipulator of Song and Dance’: Passion]
Gu Qing Shan called out without hesitation: “Go!”
Instantly, the three skeletons around him flew out and reappeared next to the burly man.
The three skeletons clung onto the burly man and bit him.
997,
998,
999——-
The prerequisite: Passion has been fulfilled!
With a ‘pop’, the burly man had broken all three skeletons with a shake of his body.
“Such a weak attack, are you looking down on me? Die!”
He rushed towards Gu Qing Shan again, only to receive his gaze once again——-
[Forgetting River Severance]!
The burly man waved his hand to block the first few sword phantoms, then numerous spirit images emerged from his body to stop over a thousand attacks that followed.
Gu Qing Shan sheathed his sword and silently stood a bit further away, waiting.
Once the burly man had completely blocked all of his sword phantoms and rushed forward again, Gu Qing Shan suddenly entered a mass of white fog and vanished without a trace.
“Fled?” the burly man was surprised.
At the very next moment, a mass of white fog emerged from another direction.
Gu Qing Shan stepped out from it.
“…A World Technique” the burly man muttered and narrowed his eyes.
“Let’s introduce ourselves, I’m a passing stranger, who are you?” Gu Qing Shan said.
The burly man scoffed and replied: “You think you’re worthy to know my name? But when you said you’re a passing stranger——-“
“That’s right, I came from Gloomy City and am merely passing by here” Gu Qing Shan said.
The burly man raised his eyebrows out of surprise.
“You aren’t a qualification competitor? Strange…” he muttered.
Gu Qing Shan casually replied: “Yep”
“What do you mean ‘yep’?” the burly man asked.
“I mean you’re correct, I’m not a qualification competitor. I have a master, I’m heading straight into the center of the Dusty World” Gu Qing Shan said.
The burly man became solemn and closely observed Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan remained silent without saying anything.
The battlefield became silent.
Lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI once after another:
[Prerequisite: Anticipation has been fulfilled, the other party had focused all of their attention to observe you]
[Prerequisite: Silence has been fulfilled, it is currently as silent as could be]
[Prerequisite: Focus has been fulfilled, you had not previously unleashed any abilities that required Realm Force]
[Silence, Anticipation, Passion, Focus have all been fulfilled]
[You can now activate ‘Manipulator of Song and Dance’]
While Gu Qing Shan was reading these notifications, the burly man seemed to have received some sort of hint.
He laughed: “You’re bluffing! If you really are that strong, you wouldn’t fail to beat even me, I’m going to kill you first——-“
“Or I might kill you first” Gu Qing Shan casually replied.
“Self-righteous bastard!” the burly man roared.
Boom!
The ground underneath his feet was blown away as he charged like a bolt of lightning towards Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan simply prepared to receive the other party without attempting to retreat at all.
As the two of them were about to clash, the burly man raised his fist, while Gu Qing Shan——-
He had activated the unique Spirit Art, [Manipulator of Song and Dance]!
In an instant, the situation changed——-
The entire world fell to silence.
The two of them were clearly about to clash in the middle of the battlefield, but no flashy scenes or impressive noises could be heard at all.
A breeze of wind blew past them.
The ground was completely unharmed.
Gu Qing Shan was unharmed.
Even the burly man was unharmed.
They just stared at one another without saying a single thing for a while.
Finally, the burly man struggled to speak: “This… is your Spirit Art?”
Gu Qing Shan struggled even more to nod.
“AAAAAARRRRRRRHHHH!”
The burly man tried to shout and struggle free, but found himself unable to move at all.
Even after several more attempts, having used up everything he had, he still couldn’t move a muscle, unable to do anything except breath heavily while sweating bullets.
Gu Qing Shan shook his head: “Give it up, even I can’t move right now, how could you?”
The burly man stared straight at him: “How long do you intend on staying like this?”
“In any case, it’s going to remain like this for now”
Gu Qing Shan turned away and replied.
——both of them were currently sitting motionlessly on the ground in a front split posture.
Their postures were exactly the same.
Lines of glowing text had appeared on the War God UI to explain the Spirit Art:
[Through activating it, you’ve understood the characteristics of ‘Manipulator of Song and Dance’]
[Manipulator of Song and Dance: While you’re doing a split, your opponent must also do a split, they will be unable to escape from this state, as well as unable to use their Realm Force]
[Description: This is the opening ceremony of the Song and Dance Troupe of Sin, the troupe leader’s declaration of victory. Ponder it carefully, as you might be the one to perform the opening ceremony for the Song and Dance Troupe next time, young man!]
[Additional note: This kind of embarrassing skill would only appear in the Song and Dance Troupe, it’s extremely rare!]
Gu Qing Shan silently nodded.
Very—— good—–
After a lot of planning, effort, and improvisation, I finally understand this ability’s characteristics.
It was certainly exceptionally powerful, not even that ferocious enemy managed to escape from having to do a split with me.
But…
I really don’t want to use it ever again…
While Gu Qing Shan was dejectedly thinking this, the burly man shouted in irritation: “Brat, even if you won’t dispel this Spirit Art, can’t you at least change the posture? Fucking hell, I’ve been a murderous demon for my entire life without fear of anyone, and now you’re forcing me to sit in a front split with you like this!? Fucking damn it!”
Change the posture?
You think I don’t want to?
Gu Qing Shan felt annoyed, so his expression remained completely cold.
While maintaining the split, he crossed his arms and indifferently said: “You’re the one who got affected by the ability, stop complaining”
The burly man appeared angry and seemed to want to argue again, but another voice had sounded from behind him:
“——–And you’re about to die”
Liao Xiao Pao!
His body was covered in wounds as he staggered in front of the burly man.
“So—– you said I can’t hit you?”
Liao Xiao Pao looked at his own fist and asked.
The burly man began to be soaked in cold sweat and tried smiling amicably: “I’m sorry, Ironman, you’re a man of great kindness, please forgive——–“
Bam!
Ironman threw a punch towards his head with all his strength!
