Chapter 1316: 18.154 First Grey Star - Hei Anjing arrives on the Floating Island
Those who had endured their suffering regarded Ye Jieye practically as a god after he freed the human slaves from the dungeon. For those who were spared, the Underground Village turns into a paradise, and Ye Jieye gains reverence as a powerful figure with dual healing powers. Roi, the black lion, was even considered God's mount.
Conversely, Hei Anjing—who is currently utilizing Mo Xuejing's actual body—was perceived quite differently from his other half, the God of Void. He soared about and visited every danger zone astride the back of Reine, the hybrid dragon phoenix. There was only one reason he stopped by these locations. That is, to locate other beings that are capable of fighting in his stead.
He fished the Electric Dragon Eel that was fast asleep beneath the Milky Way river in the Tornado Mountain Ranges.
He seized the terrifying creature that was dozing in his trial zone within the Death Forest. He bound the two Yin Yang Flood Dragons and took them away at the Aurora Glaciers. The Sea God had lent him the Sky Whale in the Anairam Trench. Regarding the Star Fall Garden, he was unable to locate it despite his best efforts. Those that were apprehended were, of course, cast into his tiny universe.
After a week of traveling through this universe, he had arrived at Fire Magma Floating Island, an island topped by an active volcano.
As soon as he landed on the volcano island, his little dragon phoenix shrank like Roi does all the time. But unlike the worm version of Rou, Reine looks more like a canary in such a small form.
Reine whispered, "Master, Yun Ming is here with the Chief Warden and that Wood Archer God from the God System. They have two aborigines with them."
"Hm? Which way?" Hei Anjing asked while yawning. As someone as lazy as this God of Destruction, flying around for a week will be tiring for anyone.
"That way, Master," Reine replied.
With its wings fluttering, the dragon-phoenix hybrid pointed, and Hei Anjing strode over the molten earth beneath his feet. His journey becomes a trail of frost with each step, replete with ice elements. As soon as Hei Anjing set foot on this floating island, the majority of the fire elemental beings fled. His demeanor and inherent coldness were terrifying to these kinds of beings.
Ji Yoonjun, or rather, the God within Ji Yoonjun's vessel, felt tremendous pressure approaching them when the God of Destruction arrived at the spot where the others were. Leica and Lu Shang sensed it too, but they responded calmly, in contrast to Ji Yoonjun's terrified state.
There is a true hierarchy among the gods, but since the higher-class gods from the lower-tier worlds had to borrow a mortal's vessel, the pressure of their auras was imprisoned inside and would stay there till they released it. It was therefore not oppressive for Ji Yoonjun to be next to the God of Void.
However, there have also been instances where portions of the sovereign God's soul have entered the cycle of reincarnation in another world and have been born in this world as God. Since Mo Xuejing's soul is imperfect, it was unable to fully utilize God's vessel, even though his true body is God.
In addition, Mo Xuejing's spirit is reincarnated as a mortal, which means he hardly gets to benefit from being in a god-borne vehicle.
Now that the God of Destruction has taken over his body, Hei Anjing's soul is already divine, and by adding this God's vessel, he is capable of wielding divine aura in this world unhindered, as this is a body created by this world for his awakening.
Ji Yoonjun was on guard. "What's this aura? It's suffocating," he mumbles.
Ji Yoonjun, on the other hand, witnessed Leica and Lu Shang abruptly drop to one knee. They were only so respectful to Ye Jieye. But since they already know that the God of Void is inside the Ruins of Time's dungeon, it is not conceivable for him to be here.
"We greet the sovereign God of Destruction, Lord Hei!" Leica and Lu Shang collectively approach the arrival of Hei Anjing, who wears the origin body of Mo Xuejing.
His phoenix-shaped silver eyes peered at the group aloofly, his long silver hair was braided behind his back like a mermaid's tail, and ice and snow followed every step he took. He was dressed in a spotless white suit. Ice traces can be seen behind the path he traveled.
If it were not for the sly smile that twitches the edge of his ruddy lips, he appears to be the God of Winter who got lost in the realm of humans. Particularly when there is nothing but coldness in the depths of those silver eyes.
Hei Anjing's playful voice resounds in the area: "It's been a while~ how have you guys been? You may stand up."
Without delay, Ji Yoonjun knelt and bowed his head. About the God of Destruction, he had heard tales and information. He was once a celestial god who now roams all doomsday worlds and has slain several destroyers. He looks like a crazy person who was dreaded in the war, and his hands are covered in blood. He may be insane in a fight, but when it comes to kids, his compassion is unmatched.
He was feared and revered by all gods, demons, and divinities. All-time supreme executioner Lord Hei Anjing is sovereign.
"This humble one greets the sovereign Lord!" Ji Yoonjun said. He didn't dare to lift his head, as he was truly frightened by the aura emitted by this person. Moreover, it was just a hint of aura leaking from his body, not the type of aura he released intentionally.
Hei Anjing noticed Ji Yoonjun's trembling, and it wasn't caused by his fear alone but by something his body had instinctively felt towards his presence.
"Um? What's wrong? Why is this one trembling?" the God of Destruction asked in confusion.
Leica and Lu Shang had long stood up after getting permission and noticed Ji Yoonjun's trembling, then once again looked at their Lord Hei, who was unconsciously emitting an aura of destruction around him.
"Master, your aura is leaking?" Leica informed his lord the answer to his confusion.
Hei Anjing checked his body, and joyous ice elements were floating around him like butterflies and flowers.
"Oh~ I was a bit pissed, so my aura was a bit out of control." Hei Anjing controlled his aura to be sealed inside his body. With a wave of his hand, he lifted the trembling High God not far from him. "Stand up. There is no need to kneel to such an extent."
"Yeah, thank you very much, Sovereign!" Ji Yoonjun said.
"Master, why have you come to this place? Aren't you in the capital?" Leica asked.
Hei Anjing snorted, his attitude turning sour again as he remembered what had transpired in the Mo Clan's mansion. His frigid aura caused the hidden wisp of Nirvana Flame to tremble.
"Don't make me recall that bastard. He pissed me off so much that I don't want to stay there anymore. Either way, you guys must return to the capital as soon as possible. The next waves of monsters will be larger than this week. It's the type that self-destructs. These brats are needed," Hei Anjing said.
Ji Yoonjun said, "But their physical body's transformation isn't complete yet."
"Oh~" Snapped!
Hei Anjing lazily snapped his fingers and a blast of white flame ignited the three young men's bodies. Rather than fire, the components of this white flame are ice. Although it appears to be a flame, it was not entirely. It resembles a god composed primarily of ice. It melted any impurities in their bodies and quickly improved it to a lesser form of the God Vessel than his current vessel.
These demigod brats do not need a high-level God vessel because they need to maintain their divinity.
Hei Anjing yawns, "Is this enough?"
Leica and Lu Shang were used to their Lord Hei's decisiveness and did not care for the rules and restrictions of this world or even the divine rules. If he feels like it, he can make as many mortals as gods. It's just that, for him, such a thing is extremely boring, so he rarely does it.
He undoubtedly assisted the three young guys because of his blood kinship with them in this realm. He has three relatives: his cousin, his cousin-in-law, and his cousin-in-law's wife. Ji Yoonjun, for his part, is in disbelief. Even he, the God, requires some supplies and a chance to change his vessel into a divine one.
However, the trio in front of him fulfilled the prerequisites for becoming a god's vessel. It is a vessel that can hold divinity, even if it is a lower tier one. Find your next read at m_v l|e'm-p| y r
As expected, Lu Ming, Su Jin, and Mo Yuhan started waking up one by one and felt huge changes in their bodies. Their skin is covered with a smelly mud substance.
"Yuck! What the hell is this?" Mo Yuhan was the first to react. Then he looked at his friends, only to see Lu Ming looking like a mud man. Unlike them, he looked completely covered in black substances.
Hahahaha~
"Bro, look at you. You look worse than a beggar!" Mo Yuhan said.
Lu Ming got up as his lips quirked. He walked up to Mo Yuhan and gave him a quick hug while massaging his face with all the black material. Mo Yuhan began to cry out like a chicken that had been choked.
Aaagghhh~
Su Jin was standing next to them, oblivious to them, washing himself with water elements that he could manipulate. There is hardly much water on the island. Fortunately, he is surrounded by water components, which allow him to make water out of thin air. He just needed to collect enough water molecules from the air to make liquid.
Su Jin had just finished getting himself cleaned up and was going to assist his brother and sweetheart in getting cleaned up when he noticed that they were covered with nasty, unsightly black materials. Indeed, they have a rotting zombie appearance and scent. Su Jin was unable to contain himself and stared at the two, who were still playing a round, while covering his nose.
All of a sudden, a waterfall-like water fell above Mo Yuhan and Lu Ming's heads. Unlike Su Jin's warm water, what fell onto them was freezing.
Hiih!!
"Ah! So cold!" The two naughty brats exclaimed.
Lu Ming, Mo Yuhan, and Su Jin were astounded when they turned to face the person who doused the two in cold water. A man of breathtaking beauty, but for some reason, those silver eyes seem eerily familiar, even if they were in awe of such perfection at the moment. Though Mo Yuhan will never forget this man's face, Su Jin and Lu Ming failed to recognize him at all.
He rushed to give the man a hug while tears streamed down his face. When such an awful, putrid scent attacked Hei Anjing's nostrils, he scowled. Being touched by a relative with this aroma is impossible for a clean freak like him. Mo Yuhan was unable to get to him because had frozen his foot. The two were separated by one meter.
Hei Anjing with a disgusted face. "Take a bath! Don't you dare hug me smelling like a rotten egg."
"Brother. Brother! It's really you. You are back in your body! Wuwu~" Mo Yuhan said while trying to reach out his hand but still unable to touch the beautiful man.
At last, Lu Ming and Su Jin identified this handsome man. They were also aware of the situation with Ye Jieye's and Mo Xuejing's boats. The two were astonished to see Mo Xuejing look drastically different from what they had previously remembered. Mo Xuejing did not become his former self until he killed the Ye Jieye of that universe in his prior existence.
Furthermore, Mo Xuejing concealed his face with a black veil in the final moments of his life, as though he was mourning the loss of a loved one.
"Lord Mo?!" Su Jin and Lu Ming exclaimed.
Hei Anjing gave the two brats a quick glance before grinning. Next, he looked away from them to the nearby running magma river. With a wave of his hand, a portion of the magma had ice surrounding it, freezing the magma within.
Ironically, the rushing magma river was unable to melt the ice he had created. The water in the enormous ice tub warmed by the lava filled it in a matter of minutes. He pulled the ice off Mo Yuhan's feet and motioned for Lu Shang to place the brat in the heated ice tub.
"Lu Shang, throw them in," Hei Anjing commanded.
The chief warden followed the order and grabbed Mo Yuhan, who was the closest.
"Yes, Lord." Lu Shang responded by grabbing and throwing Mo Yuhan into the ice tub. He then walked towards his younger brother and his brother's lover, who was backing away from them.
Lu Ming stuttered in such a situation. "B-Big brother... W-wait! Ahhh!" He was grabbed and thrown in like Mo Yuhan.
"Please don't throw me. I will jump in myself!" Su Jin said as he ran towards the ice tub to escape. He safely ran towards the ice tub and felt the water inside.
"Wow~ it's warm, but the ice is still freezing. How did that happen?" Su Jin mumbled.
Leica approached Su Jin and passed a few soaps and shampoos to him with a gentle smile.
"Go ahead and take a bath. Master, I will not let you leave as long as you smell bad. He is an OCDic person," Leica explained.
Su Jin cast a quick glance at Mo Xuejing's stunning form, who appeared very different from the island in flames. He was surrounded by a blanket of frost and ice. It is as though the ice is alive, shielding him from the intense heat and flames around him.
