Chapter 282 The Divine Power of the Golden Gu
Chapter 282 The Divine Power of the Golden Gu
The Ice Gu King struggled in agony, large cracks appearing on its ice armor, and blue icy blood flowed out continuously.
"Wei Duoduo, your chance has come!" Jiang Mo shouted.
Holding the Gu-Extermination Blade, Wei Duoduo charged towards the Ice Gu King like a blue lightning bolt.
"The Gu-Extermination Blade Technique: A single strike to sever the source!"
The blue blade of light sliced across the Ice Gu King's chest, precisely severing the connection between the ice crystal cavity and his body!
&34;Ah—&34;
The Ice Gu King let out a heart-wrenching scream as an ice crystal hole broke off from its chest and fell to the ground.
Jiang Mo reacted swiftly, using a golden light to engulf the ice crystal cavity and bring it back to his side.
"Having lost the source of the Frost Marrow Ice Gu, you are no longer a threat."
Jiang Mo looked down from his high position, his golden Gu God form gazing down at the heavily injured Ice Gu King.
"Now is the time to purify the dark bloodline!"
"Golden Gu Divine Power, Returning to Origin Great Technique!"
Countless golden runes surged from Jiang Mo's palm, transforming into chains that wrapped around the Ice Gu King.
The golden light clashed fiercely with the dark energy within the Ice Gu King, unleashing a blinding burst of light.
"No...no..." the Ice Gu King struggled and pleaded, "Great master...save me..."
Before he could finish speaking, a black crack suddenly appeared in the air.
A huge, jet-black hand reached out from within and grabbed at the Ice Gu King!
"The Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect?" Jiang Mo's pupils contracted. "How could he appear?"
The black hand grabbed the Ice Gu King and pulled it sharply, trying to drag it into the crevice.
"Don't even think about it!" A sharp glint flashed in Jiang Mo's golden eyes. "Golden Gu Divine Power, Dimensional Seal!"
The golden light transformed into countless tiny chains, wrapping around the black crack in an attempt to seal it.
"Jiang Mo...I won't give up my chess piece..." A cold voice came from the crack, "You can't stop me..."
"Is that so?" Jiang Mo sneered, "Golden Gu Divine Power, Purifying Light!"
A blinding golden light shot out from Jiang Mo's palm, striking the black hand directly!
&34;Ah—&34;
With a shrill scream, the black hand was struck by the golden light and, as if burned, quickly retreated back into the crack.
The crack, bound by the golden chains, gradually shrank and eventually disappeared.
The Ice Gu King crashed heavily onto the ice, its ice armor almost completely shattering, revealing an aged human body underneath.
It was an old man with a full head of white hair, who looked to be several hundred years old. His body was emaciated and he was barely clinging to life.
"Is this the true form of the Ice Gu King?" Feng Baobao asked in surprise.
Jiang Mo nodded: "That's right, this is Frost, an ancient Nordic ice-type superhuman, who was controlled by the Heavenly Gu Sect Master and transformed into the Ice Gu King."
"I...knew...you would come..." the old man said weakly, "I...waited...for three hundred years..."
Jiang Mo crouched down, his golden eyes fixed on the old man: "You knew I would come?"
The old man nodded, trembling: "The Gu God...reincarnated...will...purify...all darkness..."
"This is...a prophecy..."
"The dark bloodline within you has been purified," Jiang Mo said softly. "You can rest in peace now."
The old man smiled with relief: "Thank you... Lord Gu God..."
"But...please be careful...of the Seven Stars...tomb..."
"The Seven Star Tomb?" Jiang Mo frowned. "What's that?"
However, the old man had already closed his eyes, and his life force had completely dissipated.
Jiang Mo remained silent for a moment, then reached out and touched the old man's forehead, a ray of golden light seeping into it.
"Rest in peace, soul controlled by darkness."
The old man's body slowly turned into ice shards, dissipating in the Arctic wind.
Jiang Mo stood up and looked at the empty hole in the ice crystal in his hand, where there were still some unconverted Frost Marrow Ice Gu.
"These Frost Marrow Ice Gu are the core of the Ice Gu King and have extremely high research value."
A flash of golden light appeared in Jiang Mo's palm, completely purifying it and turning it into a crystal-clear, ice-blue gem.
The Ice Gu Bead is a rare treasure, used to cultivate special ice-based Gu techniques.
He put away the Ice Gu Bead and then looked towards the Abyss of Eternal Freeze.
The blue light in the crack had disappeared, but Jiang Mo still felt something was off.
"There seems to be some secret hidden within the Abyss of Eternal Freeze..."
He walked to the edge of the crevice, his golden eyes fixed on the bottomless glacial fissure.
"I'm going down to take a look. You all wait for me here."
"No!" Feng Baobao immediately objected, "It's too dangerous!"
Jiang Mo smiled slightly: "Don't worry, with my current strength, nothing can threaten me."
"Besides, the Ice Gu King has been purified, so there shouldn't be any danger below."
Seeing that Jiang Moyi was determined, the three women had no choice but to nod in agreement, but they still looked worried.
Jiang Mo leaped into the abyss of eternal freeze.
A golden light forms a protective shield around the body to prevent injury during a fall.
The Abyss of Eternal Freeze was deeper than he had imagined. Jiang Mo descended several hundred meters and finally saw the bottom.
To his surprise, the bottom was not the ice layer he had imagined, but the entrance to an ancient, frozen tunnel!
The tunnel led deep underground, and the walls were covered with ancient runes, some of which he had never even seen in the memories of the Gu God.
&34;这是...&34;姜墨眉头紧锁,&34;难道这就是冰蛊王临死前提到的&39;七星陵墓&39;?&34;
He cautiously entered the tunnel, where golden light illuminated the path ahead.
The tunnel is spacious and flat inside, clearly carved out by hand.
Within the ice layer on the wall, some frozen ancient artifacts—armor, weapons, ornaments, and so on—can be vaguely seen.
"These things are at least a thousand years old," Jiang Mo thought to himself.
After walking for about half an hour, the tunnel suddenly opened up and turned into a huge ice cave.
In the center of the ice cave was a huge altar, on which were placed seven ice coffins arranged in a star shape.
"Seven Star Tomb..." A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Mo's golden eyes. "This is the place the Ice Gu King mentioned."
He approached and discovered that each of the seven ice coffins contained a corpse.
Each corpse had a peculiar rune on its chest, emitting a faint black light.
"These are... the sealing runes of the Heavenly Gu Sect?"
Jiang Mo frowned deeply. "Could these seven people be related to the Heavenly Gu Sect Master?"
He carefully examined each ice coffin and found ancient characters engraved on the lids, recording the identities of those sealed away.
&34;&39;冰霜之王&39;、&39;火焰之主&39;、&39;雷霆使者&39;、&39;大地守护者&39;、&39;风暴主宰&39;、&39;海洋统治者&39;、&39;黑暗掌控者&39;...&34;
As Jiang Mo read out these titles one by one, his doubts deepened.
"These seven people appear to be powerful beings from ancient times. Why are they sealed here?"
Just as he was pondering, his gaze was suddenly drawn to a small stone platform in the center of the altar.
On the stone platform sits an ancient stone tablet, covered with densely packed characters.
Jiang Mo approached and examined it, discovering that it was a document recording ancient secrets.
"The Seven Star Elementalists, the controllers of the power of heaven and earth."
"They possess the seven elemental powers that existed at the beginning of creation, maintaining the balance of the world."
