Gu Qing Shan continued reading the War God UI.
Lines of glowing text were still scrolling past his eyes.
[Duo Image battle mode: In this mode, the two Envoys of Condemnation can instantly synchronize their battle cards as well as their card-type battle experience]
[You’ve obtained permission to use all battle cards belonging to the lapis-grade card: Angel of Condemnation – Dusk]
[You’ve learnt how to use these cards]
[Currently, you are a grey-grade lv0 card, Angel of Condemnation – Dusk is unable to obtain any battle card from you]
[As you’ve never fought using cards before, Angel of Condemnation – Dusk is unable to obtain any card-type battle experience from you]
[Under these circumstances, whenever you use three of her cards, Angel of Condemnation – Dusk will be able to draw upon one of your abilities and manifest it as a card for her to use]
[You may select one of your abilities to manifest as a card, placing it into Angel of Condemnation – Dusk’s Duo Deck]
Gu Qing Shan quickly finished reading.
Little Dusk told him: “It’s fine, now that you’ve obtained my lapis-grade card deck, it will be the same as two of me fighting at the same time, so we should be able to beat them”
She continued: “According to the rules, you can choose one of your abilities to put into our shared Duo Deck, but I prefer the caster-type fighting style, so I won’t be able to use your close-ranged abilities, just randomly put one of them in”
Gu Qing Shan thought for a single second and told her: “Wait”
Now that he had obtained Little Dusk’s experience as a card user, he focused his mind to choose one ability as a shared card.
A grey card manifested in front of them.
Depicted on the card were two arrows cycling around one another, constantly changing places.
[Card: Shadow Shift]
[Spatial-type Divine Skill, instant cast, you can switch places with any creature within the range of your inner sight]
[Note: This Skill is a Law-grade Divine Skill, no living being will be able to resist it, no barrier of sealing technique will be able to stop it]
Little Dusk was surprised, quickly caught the card in her hand, and exclaimed excitedly: “Whoa! For a caster like myself, this is certainly the best evasion card right now!”
Gu Qing Shan also grinned.
He was currently absorbing Little Dusk’s battle experience.
“Little Dusk”
“Hm?”
“I… kind of understand now why Divinities were afraid of you”
“Hehehe, this is nothing, I’m still very weak right now”
In the sky, the grey giant finally made his decision.
“Regardless of what the secret is, we can’t offend the Holy Church”
He shouted: “Go! All teams, kill them on the spot!”
The entire bounty hunter squad moved into action again.
Gu Qing Shan and Little Dusk quickly noticed it.
Little Dusk shifted her focus onto the enemies in the sky and began to draw card after card.
She asked: “Should we do a combined spell attack?”
Gu Qing Shan also began to draw card after card.
While drawing cards, he answered: “No, I already received your battle experience and now I know how I should be fighting, so…”
“So?” Little Dusk asked.
Gu Qing Shan continued: “So I’ll take care of the close combat and you take care of the long-ranged spells, that is the correct way to form a combination!”
He flung one hand up.
A card was thrown out and turned into a cluster of light that was absorbed into Gu Qing Shan’s body.
[Rapid Strikes]
[After activating this card, your attack speed will be increased by 30%]
Gu Qing Shan let the nine other cards in his hand go.
The cards began to spin around his body, slowly fading into the void of space.
Wielding two swords at once, Gu Qing Shan shot to the sky.
During his flight, the second card suddenly lit up.
It swiftly glowed bright green before vanishing from the void of space.
A full plate metal armor carved with multitudes of majestic and intricate runes appeared behind Gu Qing Shan.
The armor scattered itself into its components and equipped itself onto Gu Qing Shan’s body.
[Lapis-grade armor: Plate of Life’s Gracious Gift]
[Equipping this armor grants you the Unique Skill: Immersion of Life’s Fountain]
[Unique Skill description: Half the power of attacks you receive will be converted into healing power, treating your wounds over a duration of 8 seconds]
Gu Qing Shan immediately activated the Unique Skill.
A faint bright green misty glow appeared around his body.
He then vanished on the spot, directly appearing in the middle of the bounty hunter squad.
“He just blinked again! Kill him!”
Someone shouted.
Everyone attacked at once.
But the misty glow around Gu Qing Shan’s body absorbed half the power of the attacks and turned them into healing power instead.
In other words, the wounds he suffered were being treated at the exact same rate.
Not to mention, most of the attacks couldn’t even go through Gu Qing Shan’s armor to hurt him, only bouncing off the sturdy armor with a chime.
A sword cultivator who didn’t need to defend was the worst nightmare to face on the battlefield.
Gu Qing Shan’s dual swords moved.
Sword Array – [Taiyi].
Intense sword-infused wind manifested around his enemies, forming a meat grinder of a tornado as various screams and cries rang out.
A storm of blood was brewing!
“Fall back! I’ll stop him!” one of the bounty hunters shouted.
He charged straight at Gu Qing Shan, his body gradually turning into a transparent, glittering crystal-like substance as he did.
The sword-infused wind had almost no effect on his transformed body.
Seeing that, Gu Qing Shan let go of his swords, allowing them to freely fly through the air and form the rest of the sword array.
Instead he grabbed one of the cards circling around himself.
A crimson red card.
A card that depicted a blinding cluster of crimson light.
Being obscured by the blinding light, it was impossible to tell what the card actually depicted.
“True Crimson Demon Spear”
Gu Qing Shan muttered.
A spear cloaked in an endless crimson glow appeared from the void of space as he grabbed it.
At the same time, the armor he was wearing quickly crumbled and disappeared.
[Rare Item: True Crimson Demon Spear]
[While equipped with this spear, you can’t wear any armor at the same time]
[This demon spear carries the Law-grade property: Absolute Sharpness]
[Note: This is the first weapon created by Divinities from the Age of Old that can hurt them]
[Unstoppable!]
Gu Qing Shan held the spear and changed his equipped [War God Title] to [Shen Wei General]
[Shen Wei General: Your attack speed is increased by 20%]
The previously buffed [Rapid Strikes] was now further reinforced by [War God Title], making Gu Qing Shan’s attack speed reach a ridiculous level!
At this time, the bounty hunter whose body was transformed into diamond had already reached Gu Qing Shan.
As he was about to use a close combat technique to attack, a crimson light swiped at him.
This light was so fast that he couldn’t even react to it.
His reflexes made him put both of his arms in front to try and stop that light.
The air screeched, moving away like broken waves in the ocean as space itself was ripped apart.
Sha!
A strike with such an extreme speed combined with an unrivaled sharpness, the results could be only one——-
The diamond man was cut into crumbling pieces of crystals and fell from the sky.
Still standing in the desert, Little Dusk smiled.
“That’s it, as expected of my partner”
She drew something from the void of space.
——as Gu Qing Shan had used three of her cards, she could draw one of his abilities to use.
Originally, she didn’t expect much from this, but [Shadow Shift] alone had immediately shocked her.
So right now, Little Dusk was feeling expectant of Gu Qing Shan’s abilities.
She drew the second card.
This was a pink card that depicted a kiss mark left by red lipsticks.
[Ability card: Kiss of the Love Saint]
[Activating this card allows you to give the most unforgettable kiss in history”
Little Dusk was stunned, then her face flushed.
“Bah! First time I’ve seen such a card”
She angrily put the card back.
On the other side.
The grey giant who was just standing to watch changed his expression.
The cultivator had clearly let go of both swords, but they were still constantly slicing and flying through the air, showing off the immense power of a large-scale sword array.
“Damn this luck, it’s a Sword Saint!” the grey giant cursed.
He knew Sword Saints were a type of incredibly rare cultivator with a ridiculous level of power to their attacks.
I can’t let him keep doing as he pleases!
The grey giant took out a giant maul from somewhere and flew down towards the chaotic tornado of swords below.
Half-way through, he suddenly stopped and slammed his maul downwards with all his strength.
——-bam!
It had no effect!
Two humanoid puppets carrying shadowy blades in their hands suddenly appeared and stopped the maul on its path.
“Shit!” the grey giant shouted.
He glanced back down at the desert.
In the desert, Little Dusk had just let go of two puppet cards.
“Hmph, you think I’m just here for decoration?”
She drew cards again.
This time, she finally reached the two cards she wanted.
She threw one of them towards Gu Qing Shan.
The card disappeared.
At the same time, five transparent hexagon barriers appeared, circling around him.
[Shield Spell: Shields of the Dead]
[This spell can continuously block up to 5 attacks at once]
Although Gu Qing Shan wasn’t able to equip any armor due to the True Crimson Demon Spear, he could still benefit from this type of magic shield.
Little Dusk then pointed another card at the grey giant and uttered: “Weapon Prohibition, Maul!”
The giant maul disappeared from the grey giant’s hand and reappeared on her card.
The grey giant was unable to hold back his rage and shouted: “Dark Blade, use your shadow form, I want that caster card user dead right this instant!”
A bounty hunter dual-wielding daggers answered him.
“Leave it to me, I only need one minute”
After saying so, he turned into a shadow that quickly slithered towards Little Dusk.
This was an extremely rare ability called ‘shadow form’ that allowed the user to pass through any spells or magic without being affected, and as long as he could kill the enemy within a certain amount of time, the Law of shadow would take the dead enemy’s soul away while leaving the user immune to any spell damage he took.
Little Dusk casually put several cards around herself.
And then——
She took out the first card that she got from Gu Qing Shan.
[Shadow Shift], activate!
In an instant, the bounty hunter appeared where Little Dusk was standing.
He looked around in confusion.
Huh? Why am I suddenly standing in the desert already?
And then, he noticed several glowing cards around his feet.
At the same time, Little Dusk who was standing in the air muttered: “Explode”
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Intense explosions reverberated in the desert.
