Chapter 761: A Fair Deal
Translator: La0o9 Editor: La0o9
The Xie Qi Fiend Realm used to be a barren wasteland in the Primordial Wraith Realm.
No valuable resources or natural-born treasures of the Wraith realm were ever found in this place, and it did not have any sort of natural environment suitable for any type of evil creatures to grow and prosper in.
Because of this, no evil creature was ever interested in this place.
Thanks to this, after the Primordial Wraith Realm was broken into pieces, the Xie Qi Fiend King was able to take over this piece of land without a single other Fiend King trying to compete with him over it.
After killing the two fiend guards, Gu Qing Shan continued heading deeper into the palace.
A few steps later, a group of armed Xie Qi fiends responsible for the security of the palace came up to stop him.
They were completely black from top to bottom with a similar appearance to that of a human, the only difference was a long, horned tail that dragged behind their backs.
The head guard called out: 『 Fiend King, you can’t enter the palace, otherwise, we’ll have to be disrespectful 』
Gu Qing Shan ignored him.
He kept walking past these guards and continued to walk forward.
But strangely, all the guards were standing absolutely still, not a single person tried to stop him.
Only after his figure could no longer be seen did an intense storm of sword-infused wind howl and turned the guards into scattered pieces of flesh and blood before blowing them away.
As Gu Qing Shan continued, another group of Fiends appeared to block him.
These Fiends were clearly a lot more powerful than the previous group.
Their leader tried persuading him: 『 Sir Fiend King, you can’t keep going forward. If our master knows about this, your allowance for next month is as good as gone 』
Gu Qing Shan actually stopped when he heard that.
“Allowance…”
He put his hand to his forehead, feeling completely speechless with the Xie Qi Fiend King.
He called himself a Fiend King, but his everything was held in the hands of his wife, he couldn’t even return home and all the money he earned was confiscated by his wife—— although, the second part wasn’t unique to him.
But this Fiendess was obviously having the Fiend King dancing in the palms of her hands. Not only did she hold absolute authority over this Fiend Realm, she was even cheating on him without him knowing.
Of course, that has nothing to do with me.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t bother with the small talk, his sword simply appeared in the void of space as he slashed from afar.
A boundless light-blue sword phantom lightly manifested and circled around Gu Qing Shan’s body once.
Rumble——
Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, the entire palace was also cleaved in half.
As a Chaotic Star realm cultivator, Gu Qing Shan’s spirit energy reserve had already far surpassed what it used to be.
With a single slash of his sword, he could infuse an immense amount of spirit energy to perform a powerful attack equivalent to any Secret Arts.
The few Fiends who were lucky enough to survive were stunned by this power and couldn’t help themselves backing off.
An angry female voice shouted.
『 Which damn bastard dared to touch my palace!? 』
From deep inside the palace, a feminine figure leapt to the air and flew directly to this place.
It was the Fiendess.
Such a huge commotion finally got her attention.
The Fiendess landed in front of Gu Qing Shan and furiously shouted: 『 So it was you, garbage. You dared to destroy the palace, do you want to die!? 』
Gu Qing Shan calmly replied: “I am this world’s Fiend King”
The Fiendess scoffed: 『 Do you really think that anyone else but yourself still thinks of you as a Fiend King? 』
Gu Qing Shan glanced at her.
How fast was a glance?
A lot of the Fiendess’ protective treasures were triggered all at once, but none of them were fast enough, or strong enough to do anything.
The Fiendess’ look of contempt and scorn froze on her face as her head fell to the ground.
The headless body collapsed.
Gu Qing Shan just stared at the Fiendess’ corpse and waited for a while.
Grey fog began to rise from the corpse and formed a short series of runes.
The runes suddenly disappeared, as if something had caught it from the void of space.
Several dozen clusters of fog fell from the sky and landed around the Fiendess’ dead body.
A withered hand reached out and picked up the Fiendess’ head by her hair.
It was the Cruel Bone Devil King.
He had a pair of grey wings, a lanky body, and a haggard face.
「 How regretful, killed so suddenly that I couldn’t even make it in time to save you 」
The Cruel Bone Devil King looked at the Fiendess’ alluring face of beauty and sighed regretfully.
Gu Qing Shan looked at him, then at his powerful subordinates and cleared his throat: “Thank you for coming straight here, you really saved me a lot of trouble. Now, if you’re done mourning, turn this way, I have a deal for you”
The Cruel Bone Devil King didn’t care to look at him at all and just stared blankly at the Fiendess’ head.
A long while later, he slowly spoke: 「 Your entire Fiend Realm is already mine, what else do you even have to make a deal with me? 」
Gu Qing Shan replied: “Give me the 5 Elemental Roots of the Cruel Bone Devil Realm, I have a use for them”
The Cruel Bone Fiend King finally turned to look straight at him and tried to probe: 「 Are you speaking on behalf of a Great One? Or are you saying someone wants to take over my Devil Realm? 」
“No” Gu Qing Shan answered: “I’m speaking on my behalf. Like I said, I have a deal for you”
「 You? 」
As if this was the first time he had seen him, the Cruel Bone Devil King observed him for a long while before asking the subordinate standing next to him: 「 Am I dreaming? Or has our poor Xie Qi Fiend King gone mad? 」
His subordinates all laughed.
A weak, cowardly, useless fiend actually requested the Cruel Bone Devil King to give him his evil world’s Elemental Roots, what else could he be but insane?
Gu Qing Shan sincerely replied: “I’m very serious. Because only right now can you use the Cruel Bone Devil Realm’s 5 Elemental Roots to exchange for your own life”
While he spoke, a gentle breeze blew past the ruins of the palace.
The breeze quickly circled around all the devils and formed an inescapable trap.
Invisible wind without form that disallowed both entry and escape.
Innumerable numbers of minute sword phantoms made up this breeze. It swiftly encircled one of the devils, slashing and cutting him numerous times in a single split second.
All the other devils could see was that the devil was hit by a light breeze before scattering away like grains of sand.
The only thing left behind in the air was a faint smell of blood.
The wind began to pick up.
It swept over the bodies of each devil here, howling by their ears. It swept across this entire area, not leaving even a single empty spot.
Gu Qing Shan shrugged: “Just look, I could’ve killed all of your subordinates, but I only killed one of them. This should be enough to show my sincerity, so I suggest you go ahead and seriously consider my offer”
The Cruel Bone Devil King stood there, feeling his heart sank as the cold wind swept by his body.
「 This is a sword technique, are you a cultivator? 」he lightly grumbled.
Gu Qing Shan raised one finger.
An intense blinding arc of lightning was dancing around the tip.
The Cruel Bone Devil King was surprised.
「 Elemental Lightning, you are not a human…」he muses.
Gu Qing Shan replied: “I’m sorry, but I don’t have a lot of time to let you think this over. I’ll give you 10 more breaths”
The Cruel Bone Devil King observed him carefully and grunted: 「 I need more time to think 」
“Fine then” Gu Qing Shan sighed.
As soon as he did…
[Soul Sword] was activated.
The Cruel Bone Devil King’s soul was shocked by the sword qi in Gu Qing Shan’s eyes and became stunned for the blink of an eye.
The flying sword flew.
A split second later, the Six Paths Great Mountain sword had already pierced through the Cruel Bone Devil King’s chest with a shimmering cold aura around it.
Gu Qing Shan’s Elemental Lightning was infused——-
[Dreamjolt]!
The Cruel Bone Devil King’s body froze, falling into a dreamscape that lasted 5 seconds.
Boom!
Intense sword-infused wind descended from above and completely enveloped the Cruel Bone Devil King.
「 AAAAarggggh!! 」
The Cruel Bone Devil King let out a sharp scream.
Right at this moment, the Cruel Bone Devil King had just only taken out a staff that exuded dark lingering light.
He seemed to be preparing for some terrifying spell.
But the sword-infused wind wouldn’t let that happen!
The howling wind quickly drowned out the Devil King’s screams, enveloping both him and his subordinates at once.
Just a few seconds later.
Everything disappeared.
The Cruel Bone Devil King’s limbs were gone.
Covered in blood and sprawling on the ground, he had nothing but fear in his eyes.
Gu Qing Shan stood still and muttered: “4 breaths have passed, you have 6 breaths left to buy back your life”
…
The Cruel Bone Devil King returned to the Cruel Bone Devil Realm as soon as his life was pardoned.
Gu Qing Shan was now holding 5 clusters of different-colored lights in his hands.
Blue was Lightning, white was Light, black was Dark, invisible but constantly noisy was Sound, and Purple was Wind.
Unlike the 5 Elemental Roots of the human realm, the 5 Elemental Roots of an evil realm wasn’t Metal-Wood-Water-Fire-Earth, but rather Wind-Lightning-Light-Dark-Sound.
Very quickly, Gu Qing Shan engraved his will onto these Elemental Roots through his inner sight.
Using the same technique as before, he skillfully stretched and weaved the Elemental Roots into a thin string and combined all of them.
After doing that a few times, a 5-colored string of light was created.
A few lines of glowing text scrolled past the War God UI.
[You’ve obtained a String of Law]
[This String of Law belongs to a tiny fragment of the broken Primordial Wraith Realm]
[If you bring it to another world, this small fragmented world will be pulled with it and combined with the second world into a new world]
Gu Qing Shan exhaled satisfyingly.
“Gongzi, so you want to fuse two fragments of the Wraith Realm?” Shannu asked.
“Yeah, but I’m not sure if this is going to be useful to me or not” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shannu thought briefly: “When two worlds fuse, the living beings of the main world will become stronger. Is gongzi worried that the Law of world fusion wouldn’t affect you as an outsider?”
“Exactly, but there’s only one way to find out if it works or not. If this doesn’t work, I’ll have to quickly find another way” Gu Qing Shan replied.
Shannu commented: “It should work because after you transform into the Xie Qi Fiend King, your body became the body of a Fiend of this world, so the world Origin should give you feedback—— it isn’t sentient, nor does it have the intelligence to tell your true identity”
“Let’s just give it a try” Gu Qing Shan said.
He threw the String of Law out.
