Chapter 204 Activating Backup Hidden Energy
"The river water's composition has changed... What did you just do?"
The old man in the green robe spoke in a mixture of surprise and anger, his voice coming from the river in fits and starts.
As the number of Fushou Gu decreased, his voice became increasingly urgent and weak.
"You don't think you're the only one capable of targeted mutation, do you? I also have considerable experience in biological modification."
Mo Di flipped his palm, and the Styx River reversed accordingly. Countless Fu Shou Gu were trapped under the Styx River and could not move. They could only watch helplessly as they were dissolved and digested.
The surface of the river shimmered with a layer of green light, from which countless flying insects with the same luster flew out. These were insect-type Blood God Children that imitated the form of the Fu Shou Gu.
A single one of them may not cause much of a stir, but when they swarm and rampage, it will be a terrible natural disaster.
The prism attached to the back of the giant monster Poison Woman lit up with green light, continuously assimilating the giant monster's flesh and blood while shooting beams of light at the Styx worms flying in the air.
"I underestimated you. You truly deserve to be called the Styx Cult Master who single-handedly leveled Hidden Sword Peak."
The giant, venomous woman was gradually covered by eerie green crystals, and an old face appeared on her hammerhead shark-like head—the face of the old man in the green robe.
His will replaced, or rather assimilated, the beast's will. In the process, the prism grew continuously, filling the wounds that the beast had been slashed by the sword.
Styx worms surged forth from the Styx River, propelled by beams of light emanating from the prisms, and charged toward the green-robed old man who had merged with the giant beast.
Modi casually hung that section of the Styx River in the sky, picked up the Yuan Tu and Abi swords, and slashed at the Qian Emperor, who had grown larger again.
Emperor Qian also charged towards him with the giant sword bearing the dragon's breath, amidst the roar of the dragon and the crisscrossing sword energy.
As the two sides fought fiercely, the capital city was once again shaken.
Unlike the previous tremors caused by the giant beast and the poisonous woman drilling into the cave, this one was particularly violent, so much so that a crack appeared in the entire capital city from east to west, clearly visible even from the air.
Countless houses were destroyed in the earthquake. Even the imperial palace, which had been reinforced with layers of magic, was shaking. Tiles fell from the roof, and valuable porcelain pieces were smashed to the ground.
"Another one."
Modi glanced at the ever-expanding crack and was shocked to see a strange beast crawling out of it.
Its shape was unpredictable; although its body was much larger than the crack, it could compress its body like a mollusk and squeeze out of the crack.
After crawling out of the ground, it returned to its original state and barked at Mordy, looking up at the sky.
"Its shape is like a dog, with long fur and four legs, resembling a bear but without claws, having eyes but not seeing... Is this Chaos?" Modi guessed.
"Chaos? That's a good name. Since it was bestowed by the Lord of the Styx, then I shall accept it."
First, a silvery laugh was heard. Mo Di brandished his sword to force Emperor Qian back, then lowered his gaze to look at the top of the ferocious beast.
A beautiful woman in a flowing red dress stands atop a giant beast, flashing him a captivating smile.
"The Grand Preceptor of the Great Qian Dynasty, feasting on the remnants of the remnants?"
Without a second thought, Modi raised his hand and swept his sword towards the woman.
Zeng Yao neither dodged nor avoided the attack, but stood there laughing loudly, her body shaking with laughter, letting the sword energy sweep over her and separating her upper and lower body.
Her upper and lower body were swallowed by chaos, and her facial features appeared on the head of chaos.
Chaos opened its mouth and took a deep breath.
Its breath seemed endless, with no end in sight, engulfing everything around it and drawing it into its mouth, as if a singularity were unleashing an immense suction force.
Whether it be people, livestock, houses, or earth and stones, everything that falls into its mouth disappears without a trace, yet its belly shows no sign of swelling.
"It can absorb not only matter, but even my Styx death energy."
Modi's gaze became slightly more serious as he stared at the ferocious beast Chaos, but a white figure appeared in his eyes.
Then, the figure walked out of his sight.
The wind whipped her white dress, and her flaxen hair brushed against her fair face. She lowered her head, looking at the ferocious beast on the ground that seemed to be feasting, and slightly raised her hand.
A long sword, entirely ice-blue and sculpted like an ice sculpture, fell into her hand. With a slight swing of her arm, she unleashed a chilling glint of light downwards.
The cold light, seemingly slow but actually fast, plunged into the head of Chaos. In an instant, Chaos's devouring stopped abruptly, and it ceased to emit any suction force. The entire beast froze in place as if it had been frozen in place.
A cold wind suddenly blew up, and most of the capital city seemed to be plunged into the dead of winter in an instant, with large patches of icicles suddenly appearing on the ground.
Chaos, at the center, was covered in frost flowers, and the entire beast was frozen.
A moment later, as the roar of chaos resounded, all the ice shards around it cracked and shattered by the loud sound.
The alluring face atop the beast's head smiled sweetly and said in a delicate voice, "May I ask if you are Elder Su from Hidden Sword Peak?"
Rumors circulate that the leader of the Blood God Sect has a romantic partner, who is none other than Elder Su from Hidden Sword Peak.
Zeng Yao had only heard of this name before, and it wasn't until today that she was able to see it in person.
Su Youli looked at her coldly and said softly, "There is no longer any Elder Su, only the Affectionate Demon Ancestor under the Blood God."
After saying that, she swung her sword again, driven by the pure emotions of the "Scripture of Passion," and slashed diagonally at Zeng Yao.
Emperor Qian's heart skipped a beat. He was about to intercept the sword with the Dragon Breath Greatsword when a blue and a white sword blocked his way.
"Where does Your Majesty intend to go?"
Mo Di smiled sinisterly, his twin swords transforming into a blood dragon that bit down on Emperor Qian's dragon body.
The sword energy transformed into the fangs of a blood dragon, tearing apart Emperor Qian's scales and piercing into his dragon body, tearing away large chunks of flesh with each thrust.
In pain, Emperor Qian let out a series of low roars, his eyes red, and he twisted his dragon body to fight with Mo Di.
On the ground, Chaos twisted its massive body, trying to dodge the sword strike that filled it with fear.
However, its body was too large and cumbersome to dodge, and it could only take the sword strike head-on.
In an instant, white mist filled the air, completely dyeing the world white.
The cracking sound continued to emanate from Chaos, a sword wound appeared on its body, and its body was frozen again.
Centered on the sword mark, the chaotic body crumbled inch by inch, revealing the completely necrotic flesh beneath from the outside in.
On the head, the once beautiful woman's face was now distorted and twisted into a mess, making it almost impossible to discern her original features.
Chaos moved his body stiffly, the sound of ice shattering coming from all parts of his body, and a scarlet tinge appeared in his eyes at some unknown time.
It suddenly shook its body, shattering the ice shards all over its body, and a black ball emerged from its mouth.
The black sphere devoured all matter and energy along its path without emitting the slightest fluctuation, yet it caused Su Youli's heart palpitations to rise steadily.
Before she could make a move, a chaotic aura surged from the horizon, and a giant handprint composed entirely of cold, warm, and hot energies suddenly appeared and pressed down on the black sphere.
"Master, when did you arrive?!"
Zeng Yao froze, clearly recognizing the owner of the large handprint, and unpleasant memories flooded her mind.
An old man rode his qi through the air, looking down at the chaotic beast on the ground, his face full of undisguised disappointment.
"You traitor, it seems I still didn't wake you up last time." You Qingxiang shook his head and sighed, slowly raising his fist with a strange smile on his face.
"You wicked wretch, the Emperor Qian won't be able to save you this time. You'd better die obediently under my iron fists."
The strange smile turned into a sinister grin. Under the horrified gaze of Chaos's face, You Qingxiang clenched his fist, enveloped himself in the four elements, and slammed down with a punch, leaving only a single sentence that dissipated in the wind.
"Fellow Daoist Su, leave this to me. You go and deal with Zhang Kuning who's chasing us over there."
The iron fist smashed down on Chaos's head, slamming him into the ground in an instant.
Chaos's body once again became like gelatin, and it was almost smashed into a crack in the ground by this punch.
"Look at your inhuman, ghost-like appearance. I wouldn't dare say that I founded the Feast Cult outside."
You Qingxiang pressed down on Chaos's head with one hand and clenched his other fist, carving a large hole in Chaos's body.
Su Youli glanced at the brutal beating, turned her head away, and unleashed a burst of sword light, slashing at Zhang Kuning, the founding emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, who was rushing over with his dragon.
Above the pseudo-dragon, Zhang Kuning's eyelids twitched slightly as he drew his sword to meet the chilling sword light.
The swords flashed and the blades separated in an instant, leaving a bloody mark across the top of the fake dragon's head.
Zhang Kuning was startled and leaped away from the fake dragon.
A moment later, the false dragon let out a mournful howl before crashing to the ground, flattening countless houses. Its eyes lost their luster, and it was utterly devoid of life.
"Your strength is impressive, being able to withstand my blade while simultaneously slaying the primordial demon beneath me."
Zhang Kuning narrowed his eyes and looked at the woman in white, feeling a chilling aura emanating from her that kept strangers at bay.
Su Youli did not answer, and instead drew her sword to attack the Great Qian Emperor.
"Good timing!" Zhang Kuning roared, and various strange phenomena appeared around him.
Qiuniu, Zi, Chaofeng, Pulao, Suanni...
The phantom images of the nine sons of the dragon appeared around him at this moment because of the blood of the nine primordial demons within him.
The white silk formed from the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword clashed fiercely with them, pausing only for a moment before piercing through the first layer of Qiuniu's phantom, followed by Zi and Chaofeng...
The sword light was stained with blood, breaking through the last barrier, and was about to reach the target's brow.
Zhang Kuning's pupils contracted sharply, he gripped the hilt of his sword tightly with both hands, and slashed forward with his blade.
The Spring and Autumn Dragon Sparrow Blade clashed with the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword, and an astonishing chill spread from the blade to his hand, instantly freezing it.
Sensing the chill spreading upwards, Zhang Kuning gritted his teeth, burned the primordial demon blood within his body, and sent the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword flying.
He had just caught his breath when he heard a painful roar coming from afar.
The roar resounded throughout the heavens and earth, even causing everyone on the field to stop fighting for a moment.
Zhang Kuning turned his eyes toward the source of the sound and saw a dazzling green light emanating from the giant beast, the Poisonous Woman.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that the light was not emitted by the poisonous woman herself, but rather by the countless insects attached to her body.
Countless tiny insects gathered together, almost completely enveloping the giant beast, slowly devouring its flesh and blood, assimilating with the Fushou Gu on it, and vying for dominance.
"Master of the Styx River, even if I die, you will never assimilate me!"
The old man in the green robe spoke in a furious voice, shouting, "Activate the backup hidden energy!"
