Chapter 381: with translation of chapter title

Chiyou's gaze was like a torch, staring at the huge monster; at a glance he saw that the opponent was strong on the outside but weak within.

Though the opponent still emitted the aura of a Golden Immortal, his body lacked the corresponding magical power.

"He indeed has a serious problem."

Chiyou said in a deep voice.

"That is an ice frost giant, his body entirely made of ice, exuding a bone‑chilling cold all over."

Hearing Chiyou's words, the ice frost giant's gaze fell upon him, filled with icy killing intent: "I guard this place; even if I suffer from a chronic illness, I will never let you take this part of my body—this is my heavenly mandate, and I will fight to the death for it!"

The icy voice entered everyone's ears, but Chiyou snorted coldly, his expression disdainful: "What nonsense heavenly mandate, merely orders given by those lofty fellows; they do not represent the heavenly mandate! The heavenly mandate belongs to all beings of heaven and earth, not to those damned high‑ups!"

The ice frost giant burst into loud laughter upon hearing this, his expression contemptuous: "Chiyou, you are too naive. If they do not represent the heavenly mandate, why were you defeated in the first place? This shows the heavenly mandate was never on your side! So‑called myriad beings are utterly insignificant before those supreme existences!"

"Is that so? I don't believe it."

Qin Yang's voice rang out, carrying a piercing killing intent, as he fixed his stare on the ice frost giant.

Ao Zhan also stepped forward, his eyes flashing with mad battle intent.

"You also want to fight me?"

The ice frost giant asked.

Hearing this, Ao Zhan's expression turned a bit embarrassed, yet he still replied: "I am no longer a free agent; I must obey my master's command to fight."

"Master?"

The ice frost giant stared at Ao Zhan, detecting the traces of an ancient divine seal on him.

"I see, you are actually controlled by an ancient divine seal? Was it Chiyou who controlled you?"

Ao Zhan shook his head: "My master is him; his name is Qin Yang."

The moment his gaze fell upon Qin Yang, the ice frost giant's pupils tightened sharply, sensing a familiar aura on him: "That person's cultivation method! You are actually his inheritor?"

Chiyou was also somewhat surprised; the fame of Erlang Shen was indeed great, enough to shake even this ice frost giant who had once been a Golden Immortal powerhouse.

He too had been a heavenly prodigy in his youth, but later, due to suppressing his body and standing guard here, and then encountering the Jue Tian Di Tong, the spiritual qi of heaven and earth sharply declined, causing his cultivation to stagnate and even develop a serious problem.

If such a person could develop normally, he would at least be a Great Luo Golden Immortal level, yet he fears Erlang Shen so much that merely from the inheritor's cultivation method he shows shock and reverence, making Chiyou ever more curious about Erlang Shen.

"Since you already know my origin, you should step aside." Qin Yang said, "You should understand that, having come here, I represent his will; you cannot block me, nor could you possibly do so."

Qin Yang's words caused the ice frost giant's expression to shift slightly, then he could not help but laugh: "You're deceiving me!"

He wore a look of disdain.

"After the heavens and earth are severed, no great deity can easily enter Lan Xing unless willing to pay a heavy price of severe injury; but for him, it is utterly unnecessary, the loss outweighs the gain."

Seeing that he was not intimidated, Qin Yang stopped wasting words and moved to attack.

He manifested his Dharma form, a body hundreds of zhang tall, entangling with the opponent; the two figures clashed fiercely.

At this moment Ao Zhan also transformed, becoming a true dragon, and together with Qin Yang they surrounded and attacked the ice frost giant.

Both wore solemn expressions, daring not to be the slightest bit lax.

That icy aura could actually freeze the void; once contaminated, it would surely cause trouble.

Qin Yang summoned heavenly thunder to strike, while simultaneously casting the Samadhi True Fire cultivated to the utmost high realm, hurling it at the opponent.

The ice and fire attributes are extremely mutually destructive; their collision erupted in a terrifying shockwave, instantly blowing up the surroundings.

The ice frost giant roared in anger, never expecting Qin Yang to simultaneously command heavenly thunder and Samadhi True Fire; at that moment he suffered a severe loss.

But he had once been a Golden Immortal powerhouse, and did not sustain overly grave injuries.

"With just you? You also want to defeat me? Pure fantasy!"

The ice frost giant sneered, condensing in his hand a huge ice frost blade, sweeping outward as if to cleave Qin Yang and Ao Zhan in half together.

Qin Yang let out a long cry, a changdao appearing in his hand, colliding with the ice frost blade and producing a thunderous boom.

Their magical power collided, the immortal dao aura boiling here, after which both retreated, neither gaining an advantage.

Qin Yang's expression grew solemn as he fixed his gaze on the opponent, daring not to be the slightest bit careless.

Even a former Golden Immortal powerhouse, though now fallen in realm, is certainly not something an ordinary person can easily defeat.

Ao Zhan roared, exhaling dragon breath; a massive fireball smashed into the ice frost giant. He let out a miserable cry, his whole body circulating profound ice to extinguish the dragon breath, his icy eyes locked on Ao Zhan, filled with piercing killing intent.

At this moment he did not hate Qin Yang; on the contrary, he hated Ao Zhan even more.

This fellow originally bore the same heavenly mandate as I, ought to stand on the same side, yet he betrayed the mandate, defected to Chiyou, and aided him in seizing the body.

This made the ice frost giant wish to flay him alive on the spot; if not for his own bodily ailment, Ao Zhan would already be a dead loach.

Thinking of this, the ice frost giant glared at Ao Zhan and madly chopped down one blade after another.

Ao Zhan's face drastically changed; he dodged left and right but was still struck. A blade fell, leaving a huge wound on his body, dragon blood spraying, a miserable sight.

Ao Zhan let out a tragic wail, collapsing not far away, already severely wounded and deprived of fighting strength.

Qin Yang couldn't help but shake his head: this so‑called son of the Dragon King, how could he be so weak? He gets defeated by any equal‑level expert, and now he's been split into serious injury by a single blade.

His gaze toward Ao Zhan was full of contempt.

Though both are of Xuan Immortal level combat power, this fellow is weak to an absurd degree.

Thinking of this, Qin Yang even considered instantly undoing the ancient divine seal and letting him go—he does not keep useless people here.

If Ao Zhan knew that in Qin Yang's heart he had become a useless person, he would surely fight to the death; even though he is injured, Qin Yang still harbors contempt for him in his heart.

Chiyou prepared to act, but was blocked by Qin Yang.

He stared at the ice frost giant and smiled: "Senior, leave this fellow to me; I guarantee I can defeat him and retrieve your body for you."

Seeing Qin Yang so confident and even stopping himself from acting, Chiyou immediately understood—Qin Yang was treating this ice frost giant as a whetstone, using the opponent's strength to hone himself.

Thinking of this, Chiyou honestly stood aside.

The ice frost giant did not know Qin Yang's thoughts; if he found out, he would probably become even angrier.

Even so, the fact that Qin Yang's intention to face him alone was seen through also made the ice frost giant's anger reach its peak.

His eyes were icy cold, fixed upon Qin Yang, killing intent surging heavenward.

This guy really deserves to die, daring to look down on me like that.

In the next moment, the Bing Shuang Ju Ren actually shrank to the size of a normal person, then emanated immortal Dao aura from his whole body and charged at Qin Yang.

The overbearing aura enveloped Qin Yang, and the Bing Shuang Ju Ren wanted to behead Qin Yang.

In that case, the remaining Chi You and Ao Zhan's bastard offspring might not be able to threaten me.
