Chapter 1038: Chapter 828: Pseudo Saint Demon Saber

Northern lands, the Demon Beast Forest, within the Ice Mist Forest.

"Awooo!!"

A miserable scream, birds and beasts scattered.

Only to see a Northern Ice Bear at the Chongyang Realm being punched away by a Frost Giant, its body exploding in a mist of blood.

Still in mid-air, it was pierced by a dazzling Golden Arrow, nailing it to a distant snow wall, blood flowing down as it struggled.

With a flash of Silver Light, Su Yuan appeared in the void in front of the Northern Ice Bear, swinging the Demon Saber to slay it completely.

[Demon-slaying Progress (Legendary): Burning Sun Level (19/20), King Level (0/1)]

Su Yuan nodded: "With this, only one more to go."

At that moment, Su Yuan’s expression shifted slightly, and he suddenly lowered his head to look at the Demon Saber at his waist.

The once eerily glowing red Demon Saber had its runes suddenly dim a few shades.

"Hmm?" Su Yuan’s brows furrowed suddenly, "The Demon Soul has fallen!"

Unexpectedly, the Demon Soul had fallen.

Could it have encountered a Star Beast at the Three Suns Realm?

Or perhaps, it ran into a group action of Qiguang Knights capable of True Form Release?

If not for these, the Demon Soul’s strength should have been enough to handle it.

Originally, it was for safety that the Demon Soul was sent to escort Xia Xuan and others back, but even the Demon Soul fell; it seems they had encountered quite a formidable enemy.

"I wonder how Xia Xuan and the others are, as for the Demon Soul, it doesn’t matter."

Su Yuan caressed the Demon Saber, its runes flickering along with Su Yuan’s fingers.

Until this moment, Su Yuan could be certain that the Demon Saber was on the verge of a further upgrade!

If it truly upgrades, the powerful force of the Pseudo Saint Artifact might enable the Demon Soul’s rebirth directly.

"Just one more, and it’s done."

Su Yuan directly extracted the Star Core of the Northern Ice Bear and let Ruan Ruan devour its corpse.

After devouring, Ruan Ruan leaped onto Su Yuan’s shoulder, transforming a small hand to point deeper into the Ice Mist Forest, "Pujji pujji," conveying the obtained partial memories to Su Yuan.

"A Star Beast at the Overlord Stage within the Ice Mist Forest, huh?" Su Yuan was quite intrigued.

Ruan Ruan crossed its arms and nodded, "Pujji!"

"Then let’s go..."

Even if he were to return now, it would be too late to rescue Xia Xuan and the others, so he decided to proceed at his own pace.

Su Yuan’s form flickered as he led a group of Refinement Shapes, sweeping towards the depths of the Ice Mist Forest...

Two days later.

Within the glacial canyon where Frost Snow Roar echoed, Spirit Light Burst and continuous rumblings signified an intense battle ongoing.

On one side, hundreds of exquisitely featured Ice and Snow Elves with glamorous ice-crystal wings stood.

Apart from many Shining Star Level and Radiant Moon Level Ice and Snow Elves, there were also three Ice and Snow Elves with six wings.

One of the Ice and Snow Elves, at the Three Suns Realm, had its ice-crystal wings engraved with extremely complex and luxurious golden patterns!

Legendary Grade Ice and Snow Elf—Ice Sky Elf Envoy!

At this moment, aside from the Glazed Tianqing, Ruan Ruan once again split into three.

The Great Sun Golden Crow spread its two wings, the Golden Sword formed from True Sun Fire slashing unrelentingly, massacring the surrounding Ice and Snow Elves madly.

Spirit Kun floated back and forth in the void, a torrent of black Heavy Water howling forth; any Ice and Snow Elf caught in it could not escape.

As for the Great Monkey displaying the Alchemy Furnace Sacred Body, with a grasp on the adaptable Ruyi Jingu Bang, it single-handedly dealt precarious blows against the other two Early Sun Realm Ice and Snow Elves!

Ruan Ruan alone almost annihilated the Ice and Snow Elf forces governing the vast Ice Mist Forest!

Previously, the more clones Ruan Ruan split into, the more its strength would decline.

However, after entering the Legend, even splitting into multiple Complete Mimicry clones would not diminish its strength in the slightest!

It seemed the clone skill was designed precisely for the Complete Mimicry of the Devouring Law.

Nevertheless, whether it was Mimicry or the Complete Mimicry clones, they couldn’t utilize other forces of the Devouring Law.

Only in the Slime or human form could these be used.

At this moment, Ruan Ruan handled the remaining Ice and Snow Elves with multiple clones, while Su Yuan and the Sky Blue Refinement Shapes besieged the Three Suns Realm Ice Sky Elf Envoy!

"Clang-clang-clang...!"

The sounds of weapons clashing were like a torrential downpour.

In mid-air, the Black Flame Cloak on Su Yuan burned incessantly, wielding the Demon-controlling God Demon Saber and the Glazed Tianqing, colliding at high speed with the Ice Sky Elf Envoy in Frost Holy Armor and wielding two Ice Crystal Greatswords!

White vapor screeched, as the pair delivered a fierce collision, Void Sword Qi and Ice Power burst forth, and the snow ground below was suddenly ripped into a gorge hundreds of meters long!

Su Yuan shot backwards, the Ice Sky Elf Envoy’s eyes were filled with killing intent, immediately chasing after with a leap!

But at this moment, a massive arm covered in white long fur smashed down from above, the "Frost Sky Divine Fist" of the Frost Giant!

The Ice Sky Elf Envoy’s expression remained unchanged, its ice-crystal six wings fluttering to evade.

While Su Yuan raised his left hand, the void around the Ice Sky Elf Envoy distorted and shattered like a black vortex!

The Frost Holy Armor and blue-white skin were instantly scratched with numerous white scars, restricting its movement slightly.

The next moment, the Frost Sky Divine Fist had already smashed down with force.

"Boom!!"

The earth trembled, frost and snow roared!

However, with this punch, a tinge of struggle appeared on the face of the Frost Giant.

Upon closer inspection, beneath the sky-reaching giant arm, the Ice Sky Elf Envoy merely raised his left hand to support the giant fist of the Frost Giant, which was dozens of times larger than his own body!

This strength was simply astonishing!

But it wasn’t over yet, as the Howling Moon Ice Wolf and Earth Demon Bear launched a pincer attack from the left and right.

"Roar! Awoo!"

The bear’s mighty paw!

The ice wolf’s claw!

The Ice Sky Elf Envoy held up the Frost Giant’s giant arm with his left hand, and with only one available hand, threw the Ice Crystal Greatsword from his right hand at the ice wolf on the left, then punched the Earth Demon Bear on the right.

With two sounds of "bang bang", the Howling Moon Ice Wolf and Earth Demon Bear were successively struck flying.

Yet at the same time, a dazzling golden light flared up, and an incredibly powerful arrow shot with lightning speed at the chest of the Ice Sky Elf Envoy!

"Sss!!"

The unrivaled sharpness of the golden light nearly pierced through the back of the Ice Sky Elf Envoy, but the terrifying defense of his ice armor was not directly penetrated by the arrow of Mei Erche’s True Form Release.

The golden arrow gradually penetrated the ice armor, aiming to pierce through the chest of the Ice Sky Elf Envoy, but he grabbed the arrow with a surge of cold in his palm, and with a "crack" crushed it into a pile of golden dust!

And as the Ice Sky Elf Envoy’s hands were both occupied, Su Yuan instantly teleported behind him in a flash of silver light, wielding the Divine Break Sword with a sudden slash.

The Ice Sky Elf Envoy quickly reacted, with one hand supporting the Frost Sky Divine Fist, and the other crushing the golden arrow of Mei Erche’s True Form Release, making Su Yuan’s timing exquisitely precise.

In that critical moment, an ice imprint lit up at the Ice Sky Elf Envoy’s forehead, and a colossal phantom of the Ice Goddess appeared beside him, with terrifying cold surging forth like the tide of an abyss!

Instantly, the Frost Sky Divine Palm overhead, and the charging Howling Moon Ice Wolf enveloped in frost and chill were frozen in place the moment the chill surged forth!

Legendary Skill, Ice and Snow Goddess’s Roar!

But the next moment, black flame soared, golden wind flourished, the Ice Goddess’s phantom abruptly vanished, and the mind-numbing cold suddenly ceased.

The head of the Ice Sky Elf Envoy flew into the air, decapitated by a single slash of the Divine Break Sword Light!

"Huff..."

Su Yuan let out a soft sigh of relief.

He gazed at the Howling Moon Ice Wolf and Earth Demon Bear, both frozen into ice sculptures, even the colossal frosted arm overhead frozen solid, his gaze finally landing on the ice-crystal covered Black Flame Cloak on himself.

"Even ice and snow series star beasts with high ice resistance froze easily. If not for the Evil Fire from having Evil Spirit Entanglement, I’d probably have to flash back first."

Earlier, Su Yuan had temporarily held off this Legendary Skill with the Black Flame Cloak of Evil Spirit Entanglement, and with the tenfold acceleration of Returning Ruins Divine Wind, swiftly killed the Ice Sky Elf Envoy to interrupt the skill.

Fortunately, although the Ice Sky Elf Envoy was truly tough, his neck, exposed outside the ice armor, could not withstand the slicing of the Divine Break Sword Light.

Just then, intense demonic red light erupted unexpectedly from the demon saber, which had quieted due to the fall of the demon soul!

This wasn’t just the twentieth Burning Sun Star Beast to be slain but also a powerful Three Suns Realm Legendary Star Beast. The demon saber reached the pinnacle of excitement, eager to undergo some transformation!

[Demon-slaying Progress (Legend): Burning Sun Level (20/20), King Level (0/1)]

Naturally, Su Yuan did not interfere, tightened his focus, and released the demon saber to hover before him.

"Ascend to a higher level, Demon-controlling God Demon Saber!"

"Zheng!"

With a sword chant, spirit light surged, and the eerie red glow intertwined like threads and cocoons, enveloping the demon saber within.

Red light continuously flowed over the cocoon of light, with hints of mysterious runes flickering erratically, as if some transformation was occurring within the demon saber.

Su Yuan stood calmly to the side, not multitasking on other matters during this crucial moment.

He only instructed the Frost Giant, now free of the lingering ice, to guard the outer perimeter.

After a while, the red light subsided, and the cocoon of light gradually decomposed from top to bottom, revealing a brand-new demon saber before Su Yuan.

The red on the saber was even deeper than before, distinctly contrasting the "temperament" of Glazed Tianqing.

At the sword’s hilt, there was an additional red crystal, or rather... a crystal core!

"Such a huge transformation!"

Su Yuan’s pupils slightly contracted, surprised at the transformation merely from advancing to a pseudo saint artifact.

But it wasn’t just a huge transformation in appearance... Su Yuan fixated on the red crystal at the saber’s hilt.

Compared to an energy core, it resembled more of a Star Core!

Demon Saber Demon Saber... Could it truly be a combination of demon and artifact?

Su Yuan grasped the advanced demon saber, activated his system in one swift thought.
