Chapter 817: Mystic-type Ability

The Lord of Total Distortion was observing Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan was also observing him.

In truth, a powerful fiend or devil of the Lord of Total Distortion’s level could easily take complete human form without anyone noticing any difference if he wanted to.

But he didn’t change his pair of greyish-green double pupils.

The pair of double pupils almost seemed like they had some sort of magic that caused Gu Qing Shan to feel himself separating from this world itself as he stared at him.

This feeling was quite similar to his [True Soul Cleaving Eyes]

Indeed, since the War God UI was no longer here, there were quite a few Title Skills that he couldn’t use anymore.

But the [True Soul Cleaving Eyes] was originally the [Iris Sword] that Gu Qing Shan slowly trained and honed to create, it was then further reinforced by the War God UI and evolved to form the Thaumaturgy.

The ability itself had fused with his eyes, allowing him to use it even without the need for the War God System.

Because of that, he could still utilize [True Soul Cleaving Eyes].

As for other Title Skills like [Conquer] that came from [Starflame War God], Causality skills that simply cannot be replicated have all temporarily left together with the War God UI.

『 Xie Qi Fiend King, I have a small question 』the Lord of Total Distortion said.

“Please go ahead” Gu Qing Shan replied.

『 You should know, this place of mine only welcomes fiends or devils with Mystic-type abilities, but from what I know about you, you seem to have never displayed any Mystical prowess 』

“Is that really important?” Gu Qing Shan asked him in return.

——in truth, he already knew that this was the third rule that the fiend girls from before told him about.

『 Firstly, the master will forgive fiends and devils with powerful Mystic-type abilities 』

Gu Qing Shan had already fulfilled the other conditions, so the last thing he needed to do was prove that he had a Mystic-type ability.

As for why he purposefully asked about this was to avoid having to answer him truthfully.

The Lord of Total Distortion slowly replied as if he was stating a simple fact: 『 Of course, only the true beloved children of the Wraith Realm would be granted Mystic-type abilities by the Wraith Realm itself. Xie Qi Fiend King, you must first prove to me that you are indeed this kind of evil creature 』

『 Xie Qi Fiend King, I shall give you a chance for a fair transaction, and so I hope that you can dispel this one worry of mine before I do 』

“Can I show it to you right here?” Gu Qing Shan asked again.

No answers, only questions.

This was the safest strategy.

『 Naturally 』the Lord of Total Distortion replied.

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze fell onto the [Kindling] UI.

After killing the Xie Qi Fiend Kind and the Fiendess, I obtained a bit of Soul Points.

These Soul Points were supposed to be used to activate the ‘Soul Points level up’ function.

But now, to save the Earth sword, I don’t have time to worry about that.

As Gu Qing Shan was about to use his Soul Points, he stopped.

Wait.

Although the Lord of Total Distortion is willing to shelter fiends and devils with powerful Mystic-type abilities, there is no need for me to display all of my strength.

『 What, are there any difficulties? 』the Lord of Total Distortion’s tone had become a bit colder.

He was clearly questioning Gu Qing Shan.

Gu Qing Shan also noticed his impatience.

I’ll have to change my strategy a bit…

“Actually, I need to do something else first” Gu Qing Shan explained.

The Lord of Total Distortion was surprised: 『 Something else? 』

Gu Qing Shan replied: “As you know, many Mystic-type skills require strict prerequisites to activate”

The Lord of Total Distortion nodded.

“What I need to do now is to kill——- the stronger the enemy killed, the better” Gu Qing Shan continued.

After declaring so, he waited for a few seconds.

The cathedral didn’t react at all.

Indeed, he simply just stated two separate facts, one was common sense for Mystic-type abilities, the other was his own desire.

As these facts had no logical correlation, what he said wasn’t a lie.

But to the Lord of Total Distortion, that sounded like he needed to fulfill such a condition in order to activate his ability.

The Lord of Total Distortion waved his hand.

Very quickly several fiends carried a large sea creature onto the observatory.

This was a giant sea fish with sharp protruding spikes all over and an occasional arc of electricity around its body.

Its head alone was about three stories tall.

The fiends that carried it were already bleeding from being pierced by its spikes and were trembling from the occasional shock.

But they didn’t utter a single word of pain.

The Lord of Total Distortion pointed at the giant pufferfish: 『 I can’t let you kill the cathedral’s decorations or my subordinates, but this sea creature is decently powerful as well. I caught that one from the Chaos Demonic Sea myself, originally to use as the main dish for tonight’s banquet 』

“Can I kill it?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

『 Of course, I heard that you were quite the cook, so I assumed you’d also be decent at dismantling a prey 』the Lord of Total Distortion replied.

“Dismantling and butchering is nothing but basic knowledge” Gu Qing Shan replied.

That was the truth.

Gu Qing Shan’s mind turned briefly.

Oong——–

700 flying swords suddenly appeared from the void of space.

All the swords turned into flashes of light that swept through the giant pufferfish once before returning behind Gu Qing Shan and disappeared into the void of space again.

The electricity around the giant fish vanished.

In a single breath’s worth of time, from top to bottom, it was perfectly dismantled into even slices of meat from top to bottom, almost like a work of art.

The fish’s head perched up slightly, but its body didn’t move.

Only now did it feel the pain on its body.

Only now did it realize that it was already dead.

『 Impressive skills 』

The Lord of Total Distortion praised.

Gu Qing Shan didn’t answer and turned its gaze towards the [Kindling] UI.

Lines of blood-red text appeared:

[You’ve killed an Overlord Thunder Spike]

[This is an extremely rare demonic sea creature that is both powerful and ferocious, it feeds on fresh meat to live]

[As it was already critically wounded, you only finished the job]

[Obtained Soul Points: 5000]

5000 Soul Points is more than enough!

Gu Qing Shan walked up to the edge of the observatory.

He looked at the vast ocean outside that was being ravaged by the storm.

“Chao Yin”

He silently called out with his inner sight.

Oong—–

The Chao Yin sword was already connected to his mind, so as well soon as it heard his call it immediately answered.

“Good, we’re doing it now”

Gu Qing Shan replied.

He began to infuse the Chao Yin sword with Soul Points.

An unprecedented scene was unfolding on the ocean right in front of them——–

Originally, two gigantic demonic sea creatures were wrestling with one another.

But all of a sudden, the seawater began to pull away from them and formed two giant empty holes in the middle of the ocean.

The two fighting demonic sea creatures instantly began to fall from the surface of the ocean.

All of the seawater on the way avoided and evaded them, making sure that not even a single drop of water touched their bodies.

Roar!!!!

The two demonic sea creatures both utter a howl that shook heaven and earth.

But that did nothing to help them.

The creatures that relied on the ocean to live continued to freefall without being able to do anything.

Without them rampaging, the sea storm slowly calmed down.

The ocean became tranquil again.

Only two giant holes still remained on the surface of the ocean to remind the fiends and devils that were watching about what just happened.

The Lord of Total Distortion looked at the two giant holes in the ocean and showed an expression of intrigue.

『 That is…』

He muttered, apparently thinking about something.

At this point, Gu Qing Shan spoke: “I heard that the Chaos Demonic Sea is extremely deep, so much so that no one has ever reached its bottom”

The Lord of Total Distortion replied: 『 This area is still relatively close to shore so it isn’t that deep 』

Gu Qing Shan asked: “How deep is this area then?”

The Lord of Total Distortion thought for a few moments and replied: 『 About one minute 』

A minute later.

Boom!!!

A thunderous sound of impact resounded from deep underground, causing an earthquake on all the beaches and empty land near shore.

A devastating earthquake.

Even the cathedral trembled for a while before it became stable again.

——-the two gigantic demonic sea creatures fell all the way from the surface of the ocean and crashed into the seabed below to cause this impact.

Gu Qing Shan lightly waved his hand.

The two giant holes on top of the water silently disappeared.

The sea returned to normal.

The Lord of Total Distortion nodded satisfyingly: 『 The ability to control water alone would not be able to manipulate the Chaos Demonic Sea that way. Furthermore, demonic sea creatures usually have their own Mystic-type abilities that grant them blessings from the ocean, so you shouldn’t have been able to achieve that 』

He continued: 『 So, what exactly was that ability? 』

Gu Qing Shan stopped for a brief moment.

——it was a good thing that he didn’t need to lie to answer this question.

He quickly recalled the War God UI’s description of the Chao Yin sword back then.

…

[The ancient sword, Chao Yin]

[In the Age of Old, Shen Wu world was a world overflowing with water, as the Divinities left, they forged this sword to become the pillar of the four seas]

[He who wields this sword is the King of the seas]

[The sword has a spirit Thaumaturgy: All Crossing Sea of Bitterness[1]]

…

Gu Qing Shan grinned and answered: “This ability is called [All Crossing Sea of Bitterness]

The Lord of Total Distortion praised: 『 A decent name, it has some flavor of the Bygone Era 』

[1] Previously translated as [Even a sea of suffering will pass], but this just sounds cooler.
