WHIR!

The air surged as the pitch-black hull, like a sharp blade, sliced through the clouds.

The quasi-Tier Four spiritual warship, the Ghostly Flood Dragon, had arrived!

Seeing the Ghostly Flood Dragon arrive, Su Ye didn’t hesitate. He activated his Water Escape Skill, quickly teleporting himself.

WHOOSH.

In the blink of an eye.

His figure emerged from a coalescing bank of clouds.

His elegant black boots, intricately detailed with gold thread, landed firmly and powerfully on the bow of the Ghostly Flood Dragon!

Su Ye lowered his gaze slightly.

A much deeper sense of Harmony instantly flooded his mind!

Every array pattern, every armor plate, every cannon barrel, every wisp of blood flame... felt like an extension of his own limbs, moving as if by instinct!

"Haaa..."

Su Ye opened his eyes!

His jet-black pupils were filled with an incomparably brilliant silver radiance!

His Tier Four Divine Sense was unleashed, empowering the Ghostly Flood Dragon without reservation!

Of all the martial paths, this was the Way of the Warship!

At that moment, the Ghostly Flood Dragon’s power level stepped into Tier Four!

"Master!"

"Cannons are ready to fire!"

Jiaojiao was eager to go.

Her eyes were filled with the thrill and excitement of facing a challenge!

’Killing a god with Master... This is so much fun!’

Her spirits soared!

Jiaojiao focused with one hundred and twenty percent of her concentration!

She threw all her effort into assisting Su Ye, maneuvering the ship’s hull and empowering its arrays to enhance the warship’s overall might!

"Well done, Jiaojiao!"

Su Ye praised her before giving a deep-voiced command!

"Fire!"

"Yes, Master!"

CREAK.

The ship’s hull activation was complete!

A majestic, pure white exoskeleton armor covered the Ghostly Flood Dragon’s hull as countless bone cannons extended from its underside, sprouting like bamboo shoots after a spring rain!

Then, at Su Ye’s command, the blood flames erupted!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The heaven-shaking, earth-shattering sound of cannon fire rang out!

An endless torrent of Blood Flame Streaming Light, like a violent storm, blasted toward the Eternal Hunter Incarnation in midair.

The Divine Incarnation stood suspended in the air.

It lifted its head, its gaze icy.

HUMMM.

Within the golden-red spiritual halo surrounding its body, the sacred, dazzling gold gradually dimmed...

In its place, an ominous, ink-like blackness spread, suffusing the light!

And in the next moment.

BAM!

The endless Blood Flame Streaming Light!

Guided by Su Ye’s Divine Sense, the barrage converged like a cluster of missiles, completely engulfing the creature’s body!

BOOM! RUMBLE! BOOM!

A deafening, violent explosion erupted!

The piercing, brilliant light of the blood flames was like a newly ignited sun!

Such a brilliant flash of light.

It was so brilliant that it could be seen clearly even from Aino City!

Some people’s eyes were even burned by the blinding spiritual light just from looking directly at the blast!

Even uninvolved bystanders dozens of miles away were injured by it!

This was a testament to...

the terrifying destructive power of this volley!

And at the very center of the bombardment.

The damage the Eternal Hunter Incarnation sustained was a thousand, even ten thousand times greater than what the bystanders experienced!

However...

A flicker of surprise crossed Su Ye’s eyes.

WHOOSH!

A fierce wind blew, scattering the smoke and dust!

In midair.

The Eternal Hunter Incarnation reappeared!

It seemed to have emerged from the volley completely unscathed?!

"What is this..." Su Ye’s eyes narrowed.

He could see it now.

Just behind the Eternal Hunter Incarnation, a vertical, pitch-black, and profound spatial rift had appeared!

Just then,

the Eternal Hunter Incarnation, completely at ease, commented arrogantly.

"A decent attack."

"An ordinary Tier Four Early Stage cultivator would probably have weaker firepower than this warship of yours... Is this the source of your confidence to blaspheme a god?"

"A pity that such attacks are completely useless against me!"

"As a mortal, you can never touch the domain that belongs to the gods!"

HUMMM.

The pitch-black rift continued to expand, surging outward!

Finally, it stabilized, maintaining a size of about ten feet around the Eternal Hunter Incarnation, neither growing nor shrinking!

As the spatial rift expanded,

an inexplicable fluctuation emerged from within!

The area around the Eternal Hunter Incarnation seemed to have become a separate, independent domain!

’This...’

Su Ye’s brow furrowed slightly.

When his Divine Sense approached this domain, it would instantly vanish.

Even... even pure matter, or energy, would disappear upon reaching its perimeter!

’This ability...’

’Did it devour my blood flames?’

’So... that’s why the cannon fire had no effect?’

"Haaa..."

Su Ye’s eyes darkened as he pushed aside his negative emotions, calmly and seriously contemplating the true nature of the Eternal Hunter Incarnation’s ability.

’First of all, it absolutely can’t be a simple shield!’

’After all, with its Defense Power, it couldn’t even block a strike from the Moonfall Halberd...’

’Even if its Spiritual Power level has reached Tier Four, it’s impossible for it to tank that volley of cannon fire and come out unscathed...’

’So, it must have used some kind of trick!’

’Then... what is it?’

Suddenly,

Su Ye’s brow twitched.

He thought of something else!

’The way this monster appeared was also strange.’

Su Ye’s formidable Divine Sense allowed him to replay his own memories like a video player.

This allowed him to uncover many details he hadn’t noticed at the time!

By reviewing his memory, Su Ye could confirm it.

He had detected no trace of the Eternal Hunter Incarnation within Prince Tewa Kan’s body!

Furthermore, he remembered.

To ensure his safety, he had used his Taiqing Magical Power to completely destroy Prince Tewa Kan’s blood, muscles, and organs with an Ice Seal!

Strictly speaking, the Prince’s body had become a massive block of ice wrapped in a layer of skin!

And yet,

he still hadn’t found the Eternal Hunter Incarnation.

This was highly abnormal!

’It seems to have appeared out of thin air?’

’Space!’

’Does this monster have an ability similar to an Other-Dimensional Space?’

’Or... a Divine Kingdom?!’

Su Ye’s eyes lit up!

A Divine Incarnation summoning an Earthly Divine Kingdom!

It was something recorded in the books of Aino City’s library!

At this moment,

the Eternal Hunter Incarnation didn’t give Su Ye much time to think.

After blocking the cannon fire, it attacked at once, without hesitation!

SHIIING!

From the spatial rift, countless streams of pitch-black spiritual light poured into the mortal world, empowering the Eternal Hunter Incarnation!

This made its aura even more terrifying, chilling one to the bone!

SCHLICK!

Wreathed in pitch-black spiritual light, a wolf-like claw, resembling the grip of the Grim Reaper, swung out ferociously!

Unlike its previous silent, ghostly, and formless attacks, this strike was immense and powerful!

The moment it struck, a terrifying and vast pressure rolled forward like a sky full of dark clouds!

"Repent, mortal!"

SHIIING!

The dark claw of the Eternal Hunt tore through the void, slashing toward the Ghostly Flood Dragon!

Su Ye’s expression was grim, a vicious glint in his eyes!

’Divine Kingdom or not, I have to block this attack first!’

"Netherworld Boat, activate!"

Su Ye formed a hand seal!

HUMMM.

Within his Magic Power Crystal.

the pitch-black divine seed suddenly stopped spinning and burst into light!

Quasi-Technique: Netherworld Boat!
