Chapter 470: Chapter 362: Battle Heroic Spirits!

On the other side.

Wu Xiaode returned to the island.

Xiao Baihong emerged from the mist and threw a box onto the ground.

"The castle is pretty empty, this thing seems decent enough, but the rest doesn’t seem very useful."

He kicked the box open with one foot.

From the box emanated a burst of cold, chilling air which, once dissipated, revealed a set of armor.

Little Bone’s voice suddenly came from the mist:

"This is an extremely high-level Undead Battle Armor."

"You know it?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"No need to check with a phone, I can tell at a glance, it’s a growth-type Immortal Battle Armor that only the undead can wear," said Little Bone.

"What does growth-type immortal mean?"

"Even if you’re at level 1, you can wear it; if you’re at level 1000, you can still wear it—the defense power remains the same."

Level 1000...

I’m only at level 70 here, how many years will it take to reach level 1000?

Wu Xiaode muttered to himself and couldn’t help feeling a bit relieved.

If there was a level 1000 immortal among them, there would be no way to fight at all.

This matter.

It was thanks to the Destruction Council’s setting that "the soul power limit for everyone is 1."

Wait wait!

Something’s not right.

The immortals haven’t died; they can’t wear this Undead Battle Armor at all.

So who is it for?

A thought flashed through Wu Xiaode’s mind.

He shuddered, waved his hand, and stored away the level 1000 Undead Battle Armor.

"Everybody hide, don’t wander around," Wu Xiaode whispered.

Quiet Demon Mist emitted from his body, engulfing everyone again.

All was silent once more.

Time passed.

One breath.

Two breaths.

The Void opened.

A voice followed:

"Hmm? They ran away?"

The Dragon God, now a pale skeleton, burst out and swiftly circled the surrounding void.

Despite being sent to the Death World, it managed to break through the boundaries of life and death and returned to the living world!

"It’s good that they ran. I’ll start by killing all the humans in this world; everything else will be much easier after that—"

It muttered to itself, ready to take to the skies.

The next instant.

Endless ambiguous lines filled the surroundings, transforming into a world.

Ghost Country!

Beneath the gloomy sky.

All was silent.

The dark forest still bore the traces of past battles.

Numerous faintly glowing ghosts were repairing the forest, but they vanished the moment the Dragon God appeared.

"This magic again... it seems you haven’t run away after all."

The Dragon God floated in mid-air with a ferocious smile.

Wu Xiaode emerged from the mist, an unprecedented dread hidden in his expression.

"How can you travel between the realms of life and death?"

He asked.

"I’m certainly not going to tell you that," replied the Dragon God.

The two stopped talking.

The Dragon God raced through the air, seemingly preparing its killing moves while trying to find a way to escape the bronze hands that could emerge any moment.

Wu Xiaode also put his gauntlets back on.

Evil Spirits...

Since they come from the Spirit Realm, it must be classified as a type of Heroic Spirit.

Undead and Heroic Spirits are both entities that have died.

The words of the Human Emperor echoed once again in Wu Xiaode’s ears:

"I’ve long been slain in battle! Time has also been slain, haha, we’re all dead, but still not content, thus we became Heroic Spirits."

Combining this with the Undead Battle Armor just now—

Does it mean that after defeating the immortals and passing the trial, this world now allows Heroic Spirits to descend freely?

"You shouldn’t have come to our world—it should have been the Heroic Spirit ancestors of our humanity that came after I won the trial for mankind!"

Wu Xiaode spoke out.

The Dragon God laughed loudly in the air:

"Hahaha, so you’ve figured it all out! But I’m here to wipe you humans out, to thoroughly disgust your Heroic Spirits!"

It suddenly raised its upper body high, seemingly preparing to release some magic.

Wu Xiaode clenched his fists, his thoughts racing—

The opponent was already a Heroic Spirit.

Being sent to the Death World had no effect on it.

This meant that his "Death Intense Flame Soldiers" were useless against it.

The Sealing Hand was still evolving, and its current power could only bring targets into a state of death.

—Still useless?

Wu Xiaode glanced back at Audrey.

Her face was pale as if she was on the verge of collapse.

Right.

She was different from Qiong; she had not used the End, Summoning, or Tao Power, nor did she have these powers.

For her to use them with her strength, the burden must be heavy.

She might give out at any moment.

They couldn’t afford to delay.

—The next move would decide the winner!

Wu Xiaode made up his mind and suddenly shouted:

"Stop! We won’t fight anymore!"

The Dragon God paused briefly, then sneered, "You say we won’t fight and that’s it? Watch me tear you apart, then go and kill all your people!"

It charged toward Wu Xiaode.

Along the way, a multitude of bronze hands were flung aside by its rush.

"Huh?"

The Dragon God seemed surprised as well.

So many bronze hands hidden in the void?

Lucky for it, its opponent’s Tao Power turns life into death—

This cannot harm it!

One bronze hand was knocked back by its impact, speeding towards Wu Xiaode and sending him flying.

"Pah!"

Wu Xiaode spat out a mouthful of blood and immediately looked at the Book of the Dead.

A line of ice crystal text had already appeared:

"You have persuaded the opponent, but their charge has caused you an injury."

"The Dual Angel Seal is activated simultaneously!"

"1. All healing effects on the opponent are nullified;"

"2, You can select one ability from your opponent to use,"

A dense array of icons emerged on the Book of the Dead.

The Dragon God was still laughing wildly in midair, "Setting up so many hidden traps, and in the end, you hurt yourself. Truly a clown’s tactics!"

It suddenly spat out a ball of light.

At the same time, a line of small text leapt out on the Book of the Dead:

"Undead Dragon Flame Breath, guaranteed hit."

Too late!

Boom—

Amidst the tremendous roaring sound, dust rose high into the sky.

A deep crater appeared in the ground.

The Dragon God floated in midair, sneered and said, "Dead."

It extended its claw towards the ground with a grab.

The earth split open, revealing the bottom of the deep pit.

Wu Xiaode crossed his arms in front of his chest, protected by a set of armor that radiated an icy chill.

—The very same Immortal-grade Battle Armor from before!

The Dragon God stared at this scene, its voice becoming rough:

"That is... my Battle Armor..."

"What? It’s yours?" Wu Xiaode looked up.

Almost died.

At the brink of death, he became a Bright Ghost for a split second, using countless bronze hands as a wall, donning the armor that only the Undead could wear.

The Battle Armor was indeed good, snapping into place over his body in over a dozen components once activated.

The defense was also indeed strong.

—If any part of this had gone wrong, he would have died.

Rattle—

With each sound, more and more cracks appeared on the surface of the Battle Armor.

Countless fragments fell off the armor.

The Dragon God suddenly flew high into the sky, shouting with distress:

"Damn it, do you know how precious this set of Battle Armor is?"

"You’re the one who’s damned. It was your attack, not me damaging the armor!" retorted Wu Xiaode without showing weakness.

Taking advantage of this moment, he continued to look towards the Book of the Dead, seeking a skill from the opponent that could determine the outcome of the battle.

It was all too rushed before.

Now, upon taking another look, he immediately found a usable skill.

"Shattering Bone Spirit Spell."

"Consumes all Soul Power, instantly destroys the opponent’s skeleton."

Indeed, amongst the many powerful skills, it was not outstanding.

For the average enemy, so what if their bones shattered?

They could just heal.

But now he had a reason to use this skill:

1. The opponent’s body was now nothing but a skeleton;

2. Due to the Dual Angel Seal, it couldn’t heal its shattered bones;

3. The Dragon God had already been killed by him, and now it was a Heroic Spirit attached to the Dragon God’s skeleton; the skeleton was its weak point;

Then—

The enemy was a Heroic Spirit!

Without a vessel for descent, what could a Heroic Spirit do?

If it were someone else, they might not understand the intricacies—

This is point 4:

He had already experienced the descent of several Heroic Spirits!

He knew a crucial piece of information:

Heroic Spirits can’t directly affect the real world; they must rely on the bodies of the living!

All four points decided that he must choose this skill.

The battle’s victory or defeat would rest on this last move!

"Use the ’Shattering Bone Spirit Spell’!" Wu Xiaode shouted lowly.

Instantly, his Soul Power depleted completely, then suddenly rebounded by 10 points.

—That was the recovery after exhausting the Eternal Soul Power.

An extraordinary phenomenon abruptly occurred—

Wu Xiaode’s body manifested a huge pale purple skull which spoke a single word to the Dragon God in midair:

"Shatter!"

A dense crunching of bones resounded.

The Dragon God laughed heartily in midair:

"Hahaha, so you know the Shattering Bone Spirit Spell as well, seems like this battle is getting more and more interesting!"

It opened its mouth and spat out a ball of lush green light, enveloping its skeletal body in its glow.

—But it was of no use.

There was no healing effect.

Instead, the minor scrapes on Wu Xiaode’s body healed in an instant.

The healing effect only appeared on him!

In midair.

The skeletal dragon, dozens of meters long, crumbled apart bit by bit, and turned to ashes with a gust of wind.

The Dragon God looked at Wu Xiaode with a complex expression.

"A descent from the Death clan, Dark Element Tao Power, and the secretive End..."

"Truly a worthy figure of the ’Heaven, Earth, Man’ world."

"You have passed this trial, your world may now begin the Summoning."

As the voice faded.

Its body completely dissipated.

—That spirit had long since vanished without a trace.

However, lines of ice crystal text appeared on the Book of the Dead:

"Using the Bonephone 2 MAX to take pictures is powerful!"

"We have seen that Evil Spirit depart from our current world, returning to the Spirit Realm."

"You have completed the true Summoning Trial."

"—In a human body, you faced a Heroic Spirit in battle."

"The current ’Heaven, Earth, Man’ world is about to experience a large-scale Summoning event!"

All the text gathered and vanished from sight.

Wu Xiaode stood in place, deep in thought, reflecting on the opponent’s words from before.

Indeed.

How had he not realized it.

If the Past Epoch was a ’Heaven, Earth, Man’ world, then the real world should also be a ’Heaven, Earth, Man’ world!

More lines of ice crystal text emerged:

"The last Divine: the Dragon God, has also thoroughly died."

"Death God Trial task reminder:"

"Two requirements of the trial have been met: 1. Take down those with ill intentions; 2. Eradicate the true enemies behind them."

"Remaining task content: 3. Show your majesty to the world."

"Remaining task time:"

"19:03."

There were 19 hours left.

Show majesty...

How should he do that?

Wu Xiaode was filled with confusion.
