Chapter 550: Dead Soul Demon King

Translated by: La0o9

Proofreader: Arya

In the snowstorm, Gu Qing Shan’s dialogue with [Origin] continued.

[Declaring war on me? You are a mere mortal, while I am the source of Order that can change the entire 900 million World Layers] [Origin] said.

“Who can actually tell victory to defeat before the battle?” Gu Qing Shan said.

He looked at the inside of the ice mountain.

Large amounts of blood could be seen flowing down, mixing in with the clear blue water current.

The bright red blood quickly spread, corrupting the originally pristine color of the mountain.

Gradually, the entire inner water flow of the ice mountain was dyed red from blood.

The once clear blue ice mountain was now a blood mountain.

Hearing Gu Qing Shan say that, [Origin] seemed to be confused.

It asked: [Ever since I’ve been born into this world, since my evolution from Kindling to Origin, everything has gone so smoothly. Very few people are suspicious of me, reject me, and definitely none that insists on going against me like yourself. Tell me, why do you do this?]

Gu Qing Shan stared straight at the flowing stream of blood in the ice mountain as he muttered: “Just listen”

Carried by the howling winds, the screams of pain on the top of the mountain only became more vivid, more dreadful, and horrifyingly clear.

The bloody slaughter at the top was gradually reaching its climax.

The red color of blood inside the water also became thicker.

[Are you trying to claim justice for them?] [Origin] asked.

Gu Qing Shan looked up, staring at the snowflakes falling from above and replied: “Not for them”

[Origin] was even more confused: [I don’t understand you, but you are a unique slave who cannot be controlled. This is strange, why can’t I activate the order of torture on you? Why can’t I even demonify you?]

[No, you are a strange variable, you must be killed immediately]

Saying so, [Origin]’s voice disappeared.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t say anything else either.

He simply rode on the horse’s back, silently hugging Laura while listening to the noise and commotion coming from the top of the mountain.

There, he noticed the screams of pain and despair were starting to disappear, instead replaced by the strange hissing and roaring that became louder and louder.

At some point, Gu Qing Shan suddenly looked afar.

——this place was the highest peak from the system of ice mountains, surrounded by several others that formed a natural barrier around it.

Even with the black horse’s speed, it took Gu Qing Shan quite a while to pass through mountain after mountain until he finally reached this highest one.

And at this time, noticeable black dots began to appear all over the surrounding ice mountains from afar.

They were demonized people.

One by one they appeared, quickly spreading all over every ice mountain.

Under [Origin]’s command, a couple million demonized people had gathered.

Having surrounded this highest mountain, they were quickly approaching like tsunami waves.

Then the black dots started to scatter. Obviously these demonized people have all begun to pick up pace.

“Gu Qing Shan”

Laura pointed at a faraway ice mountain, gesturing him to look.

“Looking at the mountain kills the horse. They still need a very long time to get here” Gu Qing Shan casually told her.

Laura stretched her neck, looking all around them.

Every single snowy white mountain was now covered in black dots.

There were also numerous small black dots in the sky.

Although they were still quite far away, the presence they gave off in the atmosphere could be felt all the way here, a tell-tale sign that they were not ordinary people.

And since these people took the flying route, it was obvious how much of a rush they were in right now.

They were rushing to kill Gu Qing Shan and Laura before anyone else, monopolizing the rewards from [Origin] for themselves.

Both the ground and the sky were full of enemies coming to surround them.

Laura couldn’t help but take out her monocular again to look around.

“How is it?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“There are a lot of them, even the frozen wasteland outside of the mountain range is full of people. They are all rushing here” Laura told him.

“How many people do you think there are?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

Laura took out a small electronic rectangular tablet and operated the glass screen.

“Display the numbers” she ordered.

A number counter on the electronic screen began to change like crazy until it settled on a number.

[2,746,921]

“Over 2 million demonized people” Laura spoke in despair.

Even if she had a lot of Divine Armaments and equipment, with Gu Qing Shan and her alone, they didn’t have the power to use them all.

And there was no way for them to kill over 2 million demonized people who had [Origin]’s support!

This amount of demonized people could easily wipe out this entire world!

…

At the same time.

Back in the divine temple on top of the ice mountain, all the screams of pain disappeared.

God’s Might was heading for the gate of the temple.

Behind him, the demons neatly lined up to follow him.

God’s Might stood at the entrance of the divine temple, looking out towards the lower mountains.

He also saw the countless demonized people heading here.

“They’re all competing with me huh?” God’s Might muttered.

He suddenly circled the entire hall of the temple in an instant.

Black blood spilled.

Among the roars and hissing, all the demons who followed him dropped to the ground as their bodies were cut to pieces.

These demons managed to survive the demonification experiment, but were all killed by God’s Might in the most ridiculous way possible.

Now, God’s Might stood at the entrance of the divine temple alone.

Although he wasn’t hurt at all, blood was pouring from all seven orifices on his face, making him look like a devil. (1)

“You asked why I killed them? Of course I killed them for Soul Points. Don’t you want Soul Points?”

God’s Might explained to the air.

Apparently this excuse wasn’t convincing enough, so his expression began to warp, as if something was torturing him.

God’s Might tried his best to resist falling down and continued explaining: “Yes, I know killing those from the same side is not right, but we have something more important to do, that is—- to kill him!”

He spat out blood and collapsed.

As intense pain struck his body, he was writhing, screaming on the surface of the snow.

Before he couldn’t take it anymore and died, God’s Might furiously roared: “I am the leader of 800 demonized Combatants, I’ve killed too many ancient creatures to count, and now that I’ve killed those demons as well, I have enough Soul Points!”

“I offer all my Soul Points to you, let me exchange something that can definitely kill him! My only desire is to kill him!!”

It wasn’t clear which part of what he said managed to convince [Origin].

But God’s Might stopped bleeding from the orifices on his face, and the torturous pain on his body also disappeared.

Lying on the ground, he heavily breathed for a while until he barely managed to stand up.

God’s Might then put his hand to the void of space, declaring full of exhaustion: “Exchange Demon Lord: Dead Soul Demon King”

This was the same Demon Lord seen before in the shop interface, the strongest Demon Lord he could exchange for among all the Demon Lords.

It was stronger than any Remodeled Demon Lord, as it was a Chaotic Demon Lord equipped with various strange and eerie powers!

All of God’s Might Soul Points were spent.

In his vision, lines of glowing text silently appeared and hovered in front of his eyes.

Following the words’ instruction, God’s Might began to chant: “O’ [Origin], I offer all my Soul Points to you in exchange for the servitude of the Dead Soul Demon King”

A second later, something came out from the void of space.

This wasn’t a particularly giant creature, it was currently residing in another world, apparently only just opened its eyes to look here.

God’s Might’s chanting voice became raised: “Demon of dead spirits, devourer of souls, he who came from the casket of the Abyss, the original Order of all worlds summons you!”

Bam!

Space itself broke apart.

A towering figure stepped out.

It returned the crown on its head back to the void of space before turning to God’s Might.

? For the original Order of all worlds, I have come to kill your enemies ?

The Dead Soul Demon King whose body was engulfed in black flames spoke in a low voice.

While speaking, it was looking at the faraway mountains around.

? Hm… a few million enemies, but they are all very weak, all it takes is time… no, they are not enemies, they are slaves of the Order ?

The Dead Soul Demon King carefully used clairvoyance before continuing to speak.

? I found them. On the side of the mountain, a human cultivator and a Bramble Bird. Are there only two enemies? ?

The Demon King looked at God’s Might in surprise.

“Ye-yes” God’s Might couldn’t keep his voice from trembling.

Only by being stared at by the Dead Soul Demon King, God’s Might already felt his entire soul and spirit unable to keep itself from shaking.

Even as a Demi, even as powerful as he was, having been through countless battles, he still couldn’t help himself from stuttering.

Within his fright, God’s Might realized something.

If I were to go against such power, the other party would easily rip me apart.

Hearing God’s Might answer, the Dead Soul Demon King sighed in disappointment.

Stretching out his sharp claws, he lightly scratched his chin: ? I can sense the pathetically tiny power they wield… how insignificant, all I need is a single finger to kill them ?

“Ahahahaha!”

God’s Might threw both hands to the sky, laughing in frenzy: “I can do it, brothers, I will be able to avenge you right away!”

“We’re going to kill them, but you can’t kill them outright!”

He ordered.

? So you wish to torture? Very well, as you will ?

The Dead Soul Demon King put God’s Might on top of his head, lowered his body before leaping down the mountain.

Note:

(1) the 7 orifices: this refers to the 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 holes on the nose and 1 mouth.
