Chapter 334: Escape

Translated by: La0o9

Edited by: VindiFan#1 & Juicetin

The black cloaked skeleton stood still for a few moments before finally regaining its breath.

To conquer the Human Realm, it spent so much effort to prepare 3 different killer moves, all of which were either ruined or dismantled by his opponent one by one.

The black cloaked skeleton felt light-headed.

「 You destroyed my skeleton soldiers, stole my treasure… 」

The black cloaked skeleton gritted his teeth begrudgingly.

He swung his sleeves, instantly jumping up.

Like a floating black shadow in the sky, the black cloaked skeleton came swooping down.

「 I want to kill you with my own hands! 」the black cloaked skeleton shouted.

Gu Qing Shan asked in a low voice: “Can you deal with him?”

「 This is a normal dead person, my divine pressure is useless 」the Earth Sword rang and answered.

“A normal dead person… fine, I’ll do it” Gu Qing Shan said.

Gu Qing Shan equipped the title [Youji General]

[Youji General: equipping this title grants you the Unique Skill: Quick Attack (Intermediate)]

[Quick Attack (Intermediate): The user’s attack speed is increased by 5%]

He formed a hand seal to manipulate his swords.

The Chao Yin Sword appeared next to him for protection.

The Earth Sword turned into a shadow and disappeared without a trace.

Bam —-

The black cloaked skeleton was knocked flying back.

“You go as well” Gu Qing Shan silently shouted.

The Chao Yin Sword also flashed and disappeared.

A high-pitched screeching resounded in the air as the flying sword stabbed the black shadow.

The Earth Sword also suddenly sped up.

Both swords turned into blurry shadows as they flew around the sky, slashing him over and over.

After its cloak was stabbed to tatters, the skeleton was trembling while enduring the attacks.

「 What sort of sword style is this! 」the black cloaked skeleton was both scared and surprised.

Not only were the flying swords relentless, they were so quick that he couldn’t evade or get away.

The black cloaked skeleton clenched down on his teeth, turning into a grey mist and rushed at Gu Qing Shan.

He increased his speed to his limits, finally managing to get away from the two swords.

In the blink of an eye, the black cloaked skeleton had arrived in front of Gu Qing Shan.

「 Die, brat! 」

He howled.

The icy sword appeared in his hands, slashing at Gu Qing Shan with a chilling presence.

“You want to kill me with such swordsmanship?”

As Gu Qing Shan opened his palm, the Chao Yin Sword quickly drew an arc and returned squarely in his hand.

Holding the Chao Yin Sword, he moved forward.

As they exchanged blows, after 10 mere strikes, Gu Qing Shan had already knocked his opponent’s sword away.

The Chao Yin Sword followed up with the momentum and stabbed into his neck.

After the black cloaked skeleton was hit by the intense force, his body wanted to fly backwards.

He howled in anger, ignoring the sword stabbing through his throat and kept pushing forward.

The black cloaked skeleton’s entire body turned into a puff of mist, leaving only the large mouth behind.

The mouth opened up enough to swallow Gu Qing Shan whole.

Inside the mouth, there was nothing but numerous sharp teeth, frightening to the look.

Gu Qing Shan also moved forward right into the black cloaked skeleton’s mouth.

The black cloaked skeleton bit down.

Gu Qing Shan had suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind him.

The Earth Sword then slashed at the black cloaked skeleton’s skull.

Secret Art, [Silver Star]!

Five thread-like sword phantoms appeared and cut the black cloaked skeleton’s entire skull into mush.

Black blood scattered in the air.

The black cloaked skeleton was still in the air, tumbling in pain.

Gu Qing Shan quickly formed a hand seal and shouted: “Now!”

The Chao Yin Sword took the opportunity to move up and struck the black cloaked skeleton a total of 7 times.

The very next moment, a lightning dragon manifested from the Chao Yin Sword, opening its jaws to crunch down on the black cloaked skeleton and crushed him.

Secret Art, [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon]!

“Arghhhhhh!” the black cloaked skeleton let out a harrowing scream.

Lightning itself contains the Smiting property, inflicting more damage to it compared to normal attacks.

Using this opportunity, Gu Qing Shan took out a Spirit Replenishment pill and swallowed.

Consecutively using two flying swords to attack is strong without a doubt, but the energy usage is also insane.

Right now, he’s already using the sword saint’s method of battle.

But he hadn’t gotten used to manipulating flying swords yet so he had to use hand seals as a supplement.

Gu Qing Shan glanced at the lightning dragon.

——-I’ll have to see if one [Seven Stars Flowing Dragon] is enough to kill him.

The blue lightning finally disappeared.

「 Why! Why does such sword techniques exist! 」

The black cloaked skeleton held its stomach with one hand, yelling in a frenzy

A large hole had opened in his stomach.

When the black cloaked skeleton looked down, his hand was splattered with grey blood.

「 You’re irritating me! 」the black cloaked skeleton finally went into a frenzy.

Using the blood in his hand, he started to write some mysterious runes in the air.

A chilling but silent wind appeared.

「 Huang Quan’s Hellspawns, I summon —–」

The wind started to pick up, followed by a minute ringing, as if something was coming.

Then, the Earth Sword flew up and circled around the air.

Suddenly, it started to emit a silent pressure.

A mountainous heavy voice came from the Earth Sword and echoed across the sky.

「 All outer demons, hellspawns and demonic creatures, get near and you will die! 」

Hoh!

The wind picked up even more.

The invisible turbulence swirled, screeching as it did.

In the next moment, the turbulence had disappeared, everything returned to silence and no more sounds came from the void of space.

The Hellspawns were threatened into running.

The black cloaked skeleton stared at the Earth Sword, his expression is that of desires and fright.

「 Such a sword, held you by such an insect like you! 」he begrudgingly cursed.

“Insect?” Gu Qing Shan repeated.

「 That’s right, if not for this sword, you would be nothing! 」the black cloaked skeleton answered.

“Then you need to get to know me better” Gu Qing Shan said.

Swish!

A sword stabbed straight through the black cloaked skeleton’s stomach.

The Chao Yin Sword.

The next moment, the Chao Yin Sword disappeared.

A large white crescent moon manifested and exploded from inside the black cloaked skeleton’s body.

[Shadow Shift]!

Having turned into the Secret Art [Crescent Slash], Gu Qing Shan had bisected the black cloaked skeleton.

The two sides of the black cloaked skeleton’s body were blown apart by the intense wind pressure created by the strike, bleeding profusely as they tumbled down.

Gu Qing Shan formed another hand seal.

The Chao Yin Sword pursued, turning into a torrent of sword phantoms.

Secret Art, [Torrent]!

Countless sword phantoms rushed like a true torrent through the black cloaked skeleton’s lower body, decimating it.

Only the black cloaked skeleton’s upper body remained in the air.

The black cloaked skeleton could only watch as his lower body was ground to dust by the sword phantoms.

This was a very strange feeling; unlike any battle he’s ever been through.

But now, he has regained his composure.

「 I have never seen anyone fight like you, not even in Hell 」 the black cloaked skeleton spoke with a heavy voice.

As if it wasn’t the least bit concerned by how it only had half a body left.

“We can keep getting to know each other better” Gu Qing Shan raised his sword.

The black cloaked skeleton’s strongest means were actually only that drop of Forgetting River water and the 20 demonic gods.

The Forgetting River water was absorbed by the Chao Yin Sword.

The 20 demonic gods were perfectly countered by the Earth Sword.

The black cloaked skeleton itself wasn’t that strong at all.

「 The next time… we meet; I will definitely finish you 」 the black cloaked skeleton spoke.

“You think I’m going to let you get away?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

The Chao Yin Sword and Earth Sword circled in the air, sandwiching him.

The black cloaked skeleton revealed an eerie smile.

「 I can die as many times as I want, but you can only die once to lose 」

「 In hell, dead people like I am, no, even those stronger than I are too numerous to count, all of which have immortal bodies 」

「 How in hell are you going to deal with us? 」he asked.

Gu Qing Shan remained silent.

The dead cannot die, this is the truth.

The black cloaked skeleton continued: 「 In the end, the winner will always be the dead, and the hells of Huang Quan 」

Saying so, he twisted his own neck.

He disappeared from Gu Qing Shan’s sight.

No more black cloaked skeleton in the sky, there was only a grey mist that’s already dissipating.

Gu Qing Shan was trembling a bit.

He killed himself.

Using this method, the black cloaked skeleton managed to escape this area in a flash.

That way, he will return to the Frozen hell, once again using the ice to recover from his wounds.

When he’s completely recovered, he will go out to cause havoc again.

Gu Qing Shan couldn’t help but sigh.

This is the most headache-inducing aspect of the Frozen hell, you can only win against them, but never truly destroy them.
