Chapter 865 - Unexpected Situation

Chapter 865: Unexpected Situation

Gu Qing Shan didn’t stay long in the barren land.

Since the decisive battle was approaching, he was facing immense pressure.

And since he told Luo Bing Li just earlier that he needed to resolve a problem in his cultivation, it wasn’t a good idea to leave right away.

So he made his decision.

He was going to check the Cruel Bone Devil King’s corpse and confirm this unlucky evil creature’s identity.

In the small chance that this Cruel Bone Devil King was also an impersonator, there would have been two fake Cruel Bone Devil Kings in this world and all of my assumptions would be incorrect.

Of course, the chances for this were close to zero.

But before checking the corpse, any number of possibilities were still possible, so Gu Qing Shan decided to check it out anyway.

He wanted to make sure that all of his assumptions and conjectures were concluded from reasonable foundations that actually existed.

Only then could he determine his ultimate strategy without interference.

As he draped the hood of the cloak over his head, Gu Qing Shan vanished from the barren land.

He used [Ground Shrink] to directly appear inside the palace.

The Cruel Bone Devil King’s corpse was still lying on the ground with his head crushed into a pulp and some bits of brains still on the floor.

? Halt! ?

? You there with the black cloak! ?

? Who are you!? ?

The fiend and devil guards in the palace shouted in fear.

One of their Devil Kings was now suddenly dead while the other had already left, so the entire palace was in chaos.

A few of the bolder evil creatures had already entered the palace to confirm and sent the news from the Xie Qi Fiend Realm to other places.

? I have some information I want to sell ?

? Boss, yes, they broke up ?

? The Xie Qi Fiend Realm is currently without a ruler ?

The evil creatures quickly spread the news to every other evil realms.

Gu Qing Shan ignored all of them. He crouched down by the body, took out a scalpel and began to dissect the Cruel Bone Devil King’s corpse.

His movements were swift and accurate, as the Cruel Bone Devil King’s stomach and torso were cut expertly open in just a few minutes.

“Hm, this is indeed the body of a Cruel Bone devil, there’s no mistake”

After poking a piece of rectangular inner organ that was still moving a bit with his scalpel, Gu Qing Shan concluded.

As long as there aren’t any other variables, my assumptions should be more accurate now.

Now that I’m done with everything here, let’s return to the Primordial Heaven Realm.

Gu Qing Shan put his scalpel away and looked around.

More and more evil creatures were gathering here, some of which were Devil Kings and Fiend Kings who had just arrived in this world.

No matter how barren it was, the Xie Qi Fiend Realm was still a fragment of the original Wraith realm, so it was still valuable.

The struggle for this land that would soon follow was definitely going to be bloody.

Gu Qing Shan shook his head.

But that didn’t have anything to do with him.

He stood up and was about to leap into the sky.

When all of a sudden, intense pain struck him.

Gu Qing Shan’s legs almost bowed.

Oh no!

In an instant, the power of the Demon Dragon went from being dormant to erupting like a volcano and immediately permeating to every corner of his body.

It wanted to erode Gu Qing Shan’s body and soul.

Feeling the ferocity, Gu Qing Shan began to dance without hesitation.

There was no old man.

No music.

So he could only dance alone as he practiced.

Right in the middle of this huge chaotic mess of a world.

Step step step!

Move.

Shuffle.

Leap to the air!

Spin around!

Gu Qing Shan carefully performed every step of the Dance.

This Dance had already been ingrained into his mind and muscle, so every move he performed was exactly as they were supposed to be with each step weaving into the next, his movements were fluid and flexible, giving off an air of nonchalance.

The evil creatures were all stunned.

When they saw this guy dissecting the Cruel Bone Devil King’s body, they had thought this guy was a ferocious one that shouldn’t be touched.

But then he suddenly started dancing right next to the corpse.

He’s a moron, ain’t he?

If so...

? Go, get rid of this irritating crazy person ? an Archfiend ordered.

His subordinates smirked and charged forward.

But at this point, the powers of Mysticism had already descended around Gu Qing Shan.

All the evil creatures who charged at him abruptly tripped and fell then stood up and started to dance along with Gu Qing Shan with fearful expressions on their faces.

? Boss, I can’t control my body! ?

One of the fiends shouted fearfully.

His boss squinted his eyes and watched for a while.

The guy in the black cloak was still dancing.

Seems like this guy’s ability is to control others to dance with him.

? What a laughable ability ?

The Archfiend then took out a long pike, took a stance, and abruptly threw it towards Gu Qing Shan.

This act caused the anger of the countless Mystic Laws within the void of space.

The [Living Being Sacrificial Dance] is the greatest ceremonial dance of Occultism, and yet these foolish insectile creatures dared to try and put a halt to the Dance?

As soon as the pike was thrown out, it vanished.

Sha!

Blood spilled!

The Archfiend stood completely stunned and looked down at his chest.

Only to see the pike had already pierced through his body, took his heart out from his chest, and left it hanging at the tip.

? No! ?

The Archfiend collapsed on his knee, lowered his head, and died.

The evil creatures felt their hearts jump.

But that wasn’t even the end of it.

The dead Archfiend stood up, pulled the pike from his chest without changing his expression, and threw it to the ground.

The body staggered towards the group of dancing evil creatures and joined them in following Gu Qing Shan’s dance.

The entire crowd went silent.

All the evil creatures held their breaths and silently stared at this unimaginable scene.

What was originally a laughable dance became a terrifying sight.

Some evil creatures were already unable to contain their fear and slowly backed away.

It was at this point that a Devil King arrived here.

? Ahahaha, fools, no matter how happy you are, you don’t have to dance in front of the Cruel Bone Devil King’s corpse ?he laughed.

This Devil King’s subordinates had been here waiting for him, so he quickly ran up and explained what happened.

The Devil King appeared cautious and spoke: ? I think I’ve already heard of this kind of ability before, this is probably one of the Pure Holy Priestess’ Dance of Bewitchment ?

The evil creatures all suddenly recalled something.

The Lord of Total Distortion, the Blood Demon Duke and the Pure Holy Priestess were the three greatest evil rulers of the Wraith realm.

And the Holy Pure Priestess’ ability was the Dance of Bewitchment.

Since the Holy Pure Priestess was one of the strongest existences to them, now that her subordinate was here, conquering this evil realm was as good as hopeless.

But at least now they knew the origin of the dancing evil creature, and the benefit of knowing was that they could at least negate their fear.

A few moments later.

The Devil King abruptly howled:

? NoooOoOO! ?

As he howled in sorrow and regret, the flesh was constantly melting off his gigantic body like dried mud off of a wall.

In mere seconds, all of the Devil King’s flesh was stripped away, leaving nothing but a full set of devil skeleton standing straight up.

Under all the evil creatures’ gazes, the skeleton slowly knelt down, clasped its hands together to pray, and began to repent with the language of the devils:

? I am guilty, I should not have used the name of Bewitchment to shame this Dance ?

? I am guilty, I should not have used the name of Bewitchment to shame this Dance ?

? I am guilty, I should not have used the name of Bewitchment to shame this Dance ?

The Devil King’s skeleton knelt on the ground and chanted that over and over.

The surrounding evil creatures looked at this, then again at the guy shrouded in the black cloak who wouldn’t stop dancing.

Silence, all around.

That guy was still dancing among the groups of dead or alive evil creatures.

As if nothing could affect him dancing.

For some reason, the evil creatures felt a chill rise from their feet up to their spines and made it so they couldn’t utter a single sound.

This scene they were witnessing had already gone past the point of being ‘strange’, it was now full of malice and terror.

The city fell into silent dread.

All of a sudden, a completely dry and hoarse female voice resounded from the voice of space:

[ You uninteresting souls do not deserve to witness this Dance ]

This seemed to have been a sort of signal.

No one knew who among the evil creatures was the first to shout in dread:

? Run! ?

The evil creatures immediately scattered and ran as fast as they possibly could reckless abandon out from this palace and city.

They desperately ran and ran, until finally they made it out of the city and reached a different place in this world.

The evil creatures slowed down a bit, feeling fortunate to survive a catastrophe, stopped a bit to calm down their fearful hearts.

Huh?

They suddenly noticed something strange.

Their bodies turned transparent.

In just a few moments, the evil creatures had already realized what happened.

Indeed, they were already too used to seeing this.

The soul was the most common currency they used, so they recognized that all of them were souls that managed to run away.

While their bodies remained inside the city.

They were already dead.

On the other side.

Gu Qing Shan continued to perform the [Living Being Sacrificial Dance], using this to suppress the boiling power of the Demon Dragon inside his body.

The evil creatures around him had all been turned into solid statues of rock, no longer dancing along with him.

The Devil King skeleton was still kneeling on the ground, praying and repenting.

Only he...

Was dancing alone.
