Chapter 436: and translation of title, then ===GLOSSARY=== with list of named entities
【3】
Above the firmament, leaden clouds piled up, roaring angrily; within the immeasurably thick black clouds, countless intertwined lightning bolts roared as they intertwined!
【5】
That is the wind of calamity, one of the Three Calamities—the God‑Exterminating Wind—which can greatly affect a cultivator's soul and even easily annihilate it.
【7】
The drifting snowflakes were shattered and melted into droplets by the powerful aura, then evaporated into a fine mist before they could fall, shrouding heaven and earth in a thick haze.
【9】
Xie Yunshen stepped out of the tent, his eyes bright, his fighting spirit blazing like fire, continually igniting.
【11】
Xie Yunshen said in a deep voice.
【13】
Now it makes perfect sense: Lu Taibai is about to assault the God‑Tribulation Realm, which is the calamity of the entire Qianyuan Divine Sect.
【15】
Since Lu Taibai has not yet broken through into the tribulation and cannot aid the Qianyuan Divine Sect, it can only be said that the sect is missing a great general at this moment!
【17】
The Old Dragon God eagerly awaits that day, for if the Qianyuan Divine Sect falls, his Dragon God lineage could gain a new ancestral land, leave Dragon Island, no longer suffer pressure from all sides, and need not fear that his lineage would be utterly wiped out after his death.
【19】
The Old Dragon God let out a soft sigh, after all, even he merely struggles to keep the Dragon God clan alive in the East Sea, on Dragon Island; his cultivation and strength fall far short of those of the previous Old Dragon God, or of the Dragon God lineage at its peak.
【21】
Alas, time is like a merciless long blade, cutting down all that glory.
【23】
No matter how magnificent and peerless you once were, before time you will inevitably gradually wither.
【25】
The Old Dragon God now only wishes for the Dragon God lineage to preserve its inheritance and continue onward.
【27】
The Old Dragon God clasped his hands behind his back, gazing at Xie Yunshen, who had pledged to join the campaign, his eyes softening considerably.
【29】
The Old Dragon God raised his head and glanced at the Calamity Wind.
【31】
"Therefore we must act swiftly; if we wait for Lu Taibai to succeed in entering the tribulation, Qianyuan will be hard to break."
【33】
He restrained his own cultivation, not fully revealing it, for after all, the Heaven‑Earth manifested calamity hung like a sword above his head, as if it might fall at any moment.
【35】
Countless waves surged, water mist hung hazy, accompanied by bursting sounds; water columns shot up into the sky, then turned into one winding dragon shape after another.
【37】
These were precisely the Dragon God Crown Prince and the three dragon sons of the Dragon God clan!
【39】
The Old Dragon God looked with great satisfaction at his dragon sons and grandsons; this bearing and spirit were truly excellent—this is how the Dragon God clan ought to appear when striving for their homeland.
【41】
With such bearing, the Dragon God Crown Prince likely has a great chance of breaking into the God Tribulation in the future…
【43】
"Hahaha!" Upon thinking this, the Old Dragon God couldn't help but burst into loud laughter.
【45】
The Old Dragon God clenched his five fingers, and a golden trident instantly appeared in his hand, its gold radiant and gleaming, inlaid with sparkling gems, exquisitely splendid.
【47】
Xie Yunshen gave the Old Dragon God a faint glance, lightly shaking his feather fan.
【49】
The pitch‑black night, like distant mountains, was completely shrouded in hazy mist, making outlines indistinct; snowflakes drifted down between heaven and earth, as if seeking to freeze everything in the world.
【51】
On the Grand Canal, the river waters surged and exploded, as if a heavy horn sounded, its rumbling echo rising from the canal's surface and reverberating for hundreds, then thousands of feet.
【53】
One after another, enormous black Xuan dragon ships, after lying idle for so long, finally stirred again, parting the waves like towering icebergs, and began to sail!
【55】
The Xuan‑iron spirit‑wood warships are the warships of the Dàjǐng imperial navy, incomparably fierce and dreadful; the Dàjǐng emperor early on began arranging such warships in preparation for the Dàjǐng's future conquest of the four seas.
【57】
The incomparably fierce Xuan‑iron spirit‑wood warships have, on both sides of the hull, carvings of equally ferocious patterns symbolizing slaughter, as if the ships sail forth from the bitter sea of the Yellow Springs.
【59】
Bang—!
【62】
One ship after another, like a neat and orderly army, along the Grand Canal, once again heading toward the direction of Gan Yuan Dao City, moving off in a dark, pressing mass!
On the warship.
Translation: "On the warship." Wait this line is actually the English translation given? Actually the line is "【63】 Translation: "On the warship."" That seems like they already gave translation. But we need to translate the Chinese line, which is missing? Actually the Chinese line for 【63】 is not present; maybe it's a mistake. But we must output a line for 【63】 based on the Chinese? The Chinese line might be missing; but we can infer it's the same as 【62】? However we must follow the given: The line after 【62】 is "【63】 Translation: "On the warship."" That is not Chinese; it's already English. But the instruction: These lines still contain untranslated Chinese. Translate each FULLY into natural English. So we need to translate the Chinese part. If there is no Chinese, maybe we just output the English translation? But we must avoid Chinese characters. The line currently is English, but we need to output exactly one line per item as: 【N】
Xie Yunshen wore a crane‑cloak, crowned with a cap, lightly shaking his feather fan, stirring a gentle breeze.

"My lord!"
Translation: "\"Lord! \"" We'll translate: "\"Lord! \""
Gu Changqing wore the robes of an alchemist, his face filled with excitement and exhilaration.
Has it been refined?
Li Che asked with a smile.
Indeed, capturing a deity still requires capturing a person to be best; like Gu Changqing, a master alchemist, who brought him great help.
Li Che once also thought of refining pills himself, but he knew little about the art of alchemy; if he wanted to learn, he would have to start from scratch.
It would consume a lot of mental effort; where could it be as easy as now, directly summoning a deity who is a master alchemist, letting the master alchemist help refine pills so pleasantly.
"Divine Weapon Master, Divine Pill Master, Divine Talisman Master, Divine Eagle Master, Divine Formation Master... the five major professions; I have already gathered two of the profession masters, and when I have the chance later, I will try to see if I can gather the masters of the three professions: Divine Weapon, Divine Talisman, and Divine Formation."
"Be a genuine all‑profession master!"
Li Che chuckled.
Isn't the ability to summon deities just his Li Che's ability?
Then, if he Li Che calls himself an all‑profession master, what's wrong with that?
"Let's have a look..."
Li Che narrowed his eyes, feeling quite interested in the poison pill.
Gu Changqing smiled, flicked his sleeve, and instantly a black jade bottle floated in the air.
With a thought of his mind, inside the jade bottle instantly appeared a pill as black as jade, its bright surface gleaming, as if it were not a pill but a black jade pearl.
Moreover, an extremely rich medicinal fragrance wafted, making one's qi and blood, even divine nature, seem to stir restlessly.
If not said, who would know this is a poison pill?
One would only think it's a very exceptional treasure pill!
"How to use it? Could it be that one just takes it directly? People aren't fools; they wouldn't blindly swallow an unknown pill."
Li Che admired the poison pill, then looked at Gu Changqing and asked curiously.
Gu Changqing laughed: "My lord, this 【Nine‑Turn Ascending Dragon Pillar】 is the proudest heavenly poison pill creation of the Yin Xuan Ancestor; its usage is also unique—by manipulating it with one's mind, the pill rotates: one turn creates mist, two turns increase the mist, three turns… nine turns form the heavenly poison curtain, the Ascending Dragon Pillar is complete, and even gods cannot be saved."
Upon hearing this, Li Che immediately understood how to use the pill.
"Non‑selective attack?"
"That's right, my lord… this is the antidote pill; after taking it, one becomes forever immune to the poison of the Ascending Dragon Pillar."
Gu Changqing obsequiously produced another clean jade bottle.
Li Che laughed.
He tipped out the antidote pill, popped it into his mouth—it was a little sweet.
White sugar, Gu Changqing had added white sugar!
Li Che's eyes grew deep, he put away the Nine‑Turn Ascending Dragon Pillar and patted Gu Changqing on the shoulder: "Not bad…"
"Next time there's something good, I'll reward you in advance."
After painting a big pie for the summoned deity.
Li Che then stretched his limbs.
He spread his five fingers, not using the Primordial Dragon‑Elephant Flame as a mask, but slowly took out the black‑and‑white Netherworld King of Hell mask and placed it on his face.
The moment his eyes opened, golden flames flared and jumped.
He clenched his fist, gripping the Flying Thunder chess piece tightly in his palm.
His whole figure vanished from sight.
…
…The great battle is about to erupt!
When the court's black‑iron spirit‑wood warships appeared, sailing within five li of Qianyuan Dao City.
Everyone's hearts and minds involuntarily grew tense!
Yet no one retreated or fled; each erupted with a fierce aura, all waiting.
Waiting for a great battle!
Everyone also knew the court's second assault on Qianyuan Dao City would surely be more brutal and solemn than the first; the court permits one failure, but generally will not permit a second.
The many powerhouses atop Qianyuan Dao City also all opened their eyes, released their auras, and exerted pressure.
Boom—boom—boom——!!!
When the warships halted, Xie Yunshen's eyes involuntarily narrowed.
He glanced at the Yellow‑Browed Grand Dharma Master beside him, and far away at the Sect Master of the Seven Treasures Divine Sect, Ning Caishen, his gaze deep.
Meanwhile, the Old Dragon God donned golden armor, his two dragon horns seeming to pierce the heavens, his hair flying wildly, exuding ultimate ferocity.
He stepped forward, shouting as he shot up into the sky.
In an instant, his body twisted and actually transformed into a true dragon's form; a dragon body over a hundred zhang long appeared above Qianyuan Dao City, hidden within the black clouds, dragon whiskers, horns, and scales slowly emerging as if alive, glittering brightly.
Terrifying dragon might poured down like a vast tide; the entire night sky over Qianyuan Dao City seemed to turn into a tattered cloth, constantly trembling under the dragon's might.
Invisible pressure stirred the void, like ripples spreading, like a great wave fiercely slapping against the city walls.
Even the tribulation clouds above the heavens piled up, the terrifying pressure of heaven and earth descended, making the whole world feel at this moment extremely oppressive and stifled.
>
The Old Dragon God's true form!
The Old Dragon God at the One Disaster Two Tribulations realm!
Terrifying!
The ultimate terrifying aura made everyone's faces turn grim.
Even Feng Zhiqi, standing on the city wall gripping his longsword, as a Four‑Opening Martial Saint, now seemed to lack even the strength to lift his head.
The Old Dragon God, having transformed into a true dragon body, released monstrous demonic energy that surged heavenward—a primal beast's bloodline power that inherently exerts a suppressive force on humans.
"Qianyuan Divine Sect, betraying the court, defying the court, shall be annihilated!"
We, the Dragon God Clan, acting on the order of the Dàjǐng Emperor, have undertaken Qianyuan Dao City; if all the aristocratic families and Divine Guard troops within the city lay down their weapons, after the city is breached, my Dragon God Clan will leave an opening in the net!
Otherwise... kill without pardon!
The voice was vast and mighty, like rolling thunder, bursting forth above the firmament.
The voice even carried a powerful force of the Heaven-Earth Dao Soul, as if to bewitch everyone inside Qianyuan Dao City, making them willingly open their hearts to worship the gods and also worship the dragon.
Hmph——!
Even an old loach dares to pose as a god!
A cold snort.
An extremely sharp sword qi burst forth from within Qianyuan Dao City in an instant, piercing heaven and earth!
The Qiankun Plaque shot up into the sky, within it sword qi ran rampant; the one who made the move was none other than the patriarch of the Qiankun Divine Sect, Lü Qiankun!
If we fight, then let us fight!
Enough with the nonsense! If Qianyuan Dao City is truly breached, and the Qianyuan Divine Sect is truly destroyed, that too is fate!
Fight!
Lü Qiankun's cold voice contained repressed fury!
Hum——!!!
Simple and straightforward, make a move, unleash a technique!
Kill!
Sword qi crisscrossed between heaven and earth, as if illuminating the night!
Lü Qiankun walked out from within the Qiankun Plaque, wielding a sharp divine sword, flowing with profound Dao essence and divinity, he boldly slashed forth, as if wind and waves like tribulation.
Dao Essence Tribulation Sword!
Like a moon arc soaring in the sky!
One of the Three Tribulation Winds... the Silver Moon Arc Wind!
As you wish!
The Old Dragon God's true dragon form was immeasurably massive, spanning the firmament, bringing an overwhelming pressure.
However, the instant Lü Qiankun made his move, the Old Dragon God transformed into his dragon body, curled his five fingers, and swung a claw, like a true dragon's claw, tearing open heaven and earth!
Two Divine Tribulation grand cultivators of the One Disaster Two Tribulations realm collided violently in midair!
Although the two suppressed their aura and cultivation, not openly drawing upon the Disaster Tribulation Wheel, their aura was truly too intense, far surpassing ordinary Half-Step Divine Tribulation and Martial God.
In an instant, the void collapsed and caved in!
Boom——!!!
The great battle erupted suddenly!
One after another, powerful auras burst forth from within Qianyuan Dao City, rushing into the clouds above.
And on the imperial war ships that came pressing down the Grand Canal, each also had aura shooting to the heavens—these were Martial Saints and Divine Fetuses.
Just as in the previous first battle, the top combatants clashed, and only after deciding the victor would the true army siege begin.
Kill!
Feng Zhiqi's black hair flew as he joined the Qianyuan Divine Sect; his identity is now that of a Qianyuan Elder.
He clenched his five fingers, brandished his long sword, a Martial Saint with Four Openings cultivation, he led the charge out of the city, killing into midair.
Hong Shifo gave a light sigh, also acting for the Qianyuan side.
Zhao Fangzhou, Ding Zi, Gong Shu Jingjun, and other Martial Saints and Divine Fetuses who heard the call also went out to meet the battle.
Rumble——
The Dragon God Clan's Dragon God Crown Prince and Dragon Sons took action.
Huang Mei also rose into the air, launching a fierce assault; the master of the Seven Treasures Divine Sect, Ning Caishen, his eyes gleaming, also erupted with great godly power, and Gu Cheng of the Ba-Shu Sword Pavilion also joined the battlefield.
On the Qianyuan Dao City side, lacking Lü Taibai, the only great godly combatant able to act was Fang Hanshu.
Fang Hanshu was also unafraid; the raging river surged, and with his own strength he faced the three top-tier ultimate great gods: Huang Mei, Ning Caishen, and Gu Cheng.
After all, he is a genuine Divine Tribulation cultivator; if necessary, he can also reveal his Divine Tribulation cultivation.
He had a good relationship with Lü Taibai, training and growing together; he despised the chicken-and-dog theft of Jiangnan Dao, came to the Qianyuan Divine Sect, and became a great elder.
His fondness for the Qianyuan Divine Sect mainly stems from the atmosphere and environment here that pleases him; since he likes it, he will spare no effort to protect it.
Boom——!!!
Fang Hanshu's aura grew ever stronger, causing the combined Ning Caishen and Gu Cheng to wear expressions as if they had seen a ghost.
How could he be this strong?!
Xie Yunshen stood upon the warship, feather fan lightly swaying, not in a hurry about the situation of this war.
His gaze fell upon the Old Dragon God and Lü Qiankun, who were clashing.
My lord... you have delayed this long; what exactly do you plan to do about the Old Dragon God?
Xie Yunshen was very curious.
Boom——!!!
In a single exchange, Lü Qiankun and the Old Dragon God clashed; his body repeatedly retreated in midair, as if the space itself had been shattered by the impact.
The Old Dragon God gave a faint smile: 'Not within your little cave heaven, you are no match for me...'
The Qianyuan Divine Sect shall perish today.
Boom——!!!
The Old Dragon God narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his head, and saw the Dragon God Crown Prince erupting with the aura of a Half-Step Dragon God, after mobilizing the power of the Dragon Emperor Pearl.
Meanwhile, the three Dragon Sons linked their auras, performed a combined technique, and erupted with Half-Step Dragon God aura.
Two Half-Step Dragon Gods roared across the void, directly heading toward the city of Qianyuan Dao City to kill.
The Old Dragon God's mouth corners involuntarily turned up in a smile.
Good!
Qian's splendid!
As long as the city is taken, once Qianyuan Dao City falls, people's hearts will scatter, making it even easier to capture the city!
However, the Old Dragon God's smile quickly froze.
Because he saw a figure wearing an embroidered golden lotus robe on the city wall, whose palm slammed down heavily on the wall.
Boom—!!!
A pitch-black gate, exuding a dark aura, suddenly appeared between heaven and earth, lying across the path of the Dragon God Crown Prince and the Three Great Dragon Sons as they sped.
The Dragon God Crown Prince roared in anger, and the three dragon sons also howled angrily.
"Netherworld——!!!"
Exactly!
Again, the Netherworld!
Everyone is all too familiar with this black city!
Therefore, the moment the gate of Fengdu in the Netherworld appeared, the Dragon God Crown Prince and the Three Great Dragon Sons intended to retreat.
But within the gate, countless black currents suddenly arose, intertwining and condensing into clanking chains that shot out, entangling the Dragon God Crown Prince and the three dragon sons.
Accompanied by the clanking sound, the Dragon God Crown Prince and the three dragon sons were pulled into Ink City.
Heaven and earth…
Instantly fell into dead silence.
The Old Dragon God's pupils narrowed slightly.
"No!"
The Old Dragon God's face suddenly showed an extremely fierce expression.
He thrust out a palm, shaking off Lu Qiankun, his whole body turning into a meteor as he sped toward the gate of Fengdu in the Netherworld.
"Gu Qianchi, stop Lu Qiankun for me!"
The Old Dragon God coldly shouted.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qianchi said nothing more, drew his sword, sword light shot up to the heavens, and sharp sword qi raged and intertwined.
If one does not enter the Minor Cave Heaven and fully display one's cultivation, the difference between facing one disaster and one catastrophe versus one disaster and two catastrophes in the mortal world is not great.
Gu Qianchi can still stop Lu Qiankun.
Boom—!!!
The battlefield situation changed too quickly!
The moment the Netherworld's Ink City appeared, many on the Qianyuan Dao City side breathed a sigh of relief, and their fighting spirit suddenly rose.
Fang Hanshu's gaze also flickered, and his heart eased slightly.
The Netherworld still exists, the Netherworld has never been defeated!
There is still a chance!
"Stay!"
A roar burst from the Old Dragon God's mouth, a fierce release exploding with rumbling reverberations.
The Dragon God Crown Prince must not come to harm!
During this time, the Old Dragon God was extremely pleased with the Dragon God Crown Prince, who is the last hope of the Dragon God lineage, and the Old Dragon God does not want anything to happen to the Dragon God Crown Prince in the Netherworld's Ink City.
He thrust out a claw, as if tearing the void, and the Old Dragon God's domineering strike slammed toward the gate of Ink City Fengdu.
However…
But the gate of Ink City Fengdu suddenly shifted and vanished!
The Old Dragon God's heart startled, his rage uncontainable, as the mighty Heaven Earth Dao Soul surged, his gaze sweeping over.
He suddenly turned his head, looking in a direction!
"National Master, be careful!"
The roar from the Old Dragon God's mouth made him instantly understand the Netherworld's purpose— to capture the thief by first capturing the king?
Xie Yunshen, standing on the warship, instantly showed extreme panic.
The gate of Ink City Fengdu, like a demon crawling out of hell, opened its pitch-black maw above the warship.
"National Master!"
A figure stepped forward to block Xie Yunshen— none other than the heavily injured Divine Tribulation Great Cultivator Zhao Beidou.
In the Old Dragon God's eyes, Zhao Beidou's aura was feeble, yet he struggled to block Xie Yunshen.
Thereafter, both were entangled by the chains hanging from the Ink City Fengdu gate and dragged into the Netherworld's Fengdu.
Subsequently, both were entangled by the chains hanging down from Mo City's City of the Dead, and were dragged into the Underworld's City of the Dead.
The Old Dragon God's heart sank.
Zhao Beidou heavily injured…
With only a tenth of his cultivation remaining, the Netherworld had counted on this, so it took Zhao Beidou and Xie Yunshen together, dragging them into the Minor Cave Heaven to be slain!
His cultivation is down to one-tenth; the Underworld has exactly counted on that, so they also took Zhao Beidou and Xie Yun Shendu together, dragging them into that small cave world to kill them together!
"Damn it!"
The Old Dragon God let out a furious roar, terrifying qi and blood bursting from his burly frame as he shot forward.
He charged toward the Ink City Fengdu gate that was about to vanish.
And Zhao Beidou, in the final moment as he was being pulled into Ink City,
And Zhao Beidou, in the final moment as he was being pulled into Ink City.
It seemed as if he saw the Old Dragon God charging forth in wrathful fury, and he roared: "Dragon God! Quick!"
A bolt of White Abyss Calamity Fire exploded in midair!
Boom——!!!
Ink City Capital of the Dead was instantly shaken by the blast.
The city that was about to vanish actually slowed its fading.
Good!!!!
Well done!
Seeing this, the Old Dragon God's dragon eyes burst forth with an unprecedented brilliant light!
This Zhao Beidou... actually has some guts!
He's not trash!
And the Old Dragon God seized the opportunity, surging with mighty waves, fully erupting his aura; behind him, the Calamity Wheel appeared, instantly provoking the Will of Heaven and Earth to fury, triggering the calamity!
Yet the Old Dragon God cared not, his whole body like an extremely sharp spear, he fiercely drove into the gate of Ink City Capital of the Dead!
He boldly slaughtered his way into Ink City Capital of the Dead!
Boom——!!!
The Old Dragon God who had slaughtered his way into Ink City Capital of the Dead had his hair and beard flying, his eyes sharp, and his Dragon Scale Golden Armor clanged.
At a glance he saw the Dragon God Prince, the Three Dragon Sons, and the pallid Xie Yunshen fallen on the ground, as well as Zhao Beidou, who displayed a Calamity Wheel with an extremely shocking rift across him.
The Old Dragon God floated over and landed beside the Dragon God Prince.
His eyes scanned up and down.
My beloved grandson, are you alright?
The Dragon God Prince shook his head with a smile: "Grandfather, I'm fine... I'm truly moved that you could come."
"Silly child." The Old Dragon God breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as you're safe, the Dragon God Clan cannot do without you."
Afterward, the Old Dragon God focused his gaze and turned to look around, at this city surging with ink.
Underworld... Capital of the Dead...
Huh?!
Just as he turned around.
The Old Dragon God's pupils suddenly contracted.
Pfft!
A sword instantly tore through his Dragon Scale Golden Armor from behind, ripping his flesh.
The Old Dragon God abruptly turned back.
His whole body shuddered violently, blood spurted out.
Unbelievable...
Seeing his most beloved grandson...
Gripping the sword, his face filled with frenzy.
He pierced his heart.
