Chapter 525: Dragged into the Ice‑Snow Realm, the Vicious Tianshan Snow God
Jiang Chen was surprised to discover that he had been transported to a strange world shrouded in wind and snow.
The snowflakes here were unusually huge, each as big as a palm, drifting lightly in the air, appearing harmless.
Yet when they gently struck Jiang Chen's Bone Armor, they emitted a dazzling flash.
Jiang Chen immediately realized these were not ordinary snowflakes, but attacks infused with pure elemental power.
He recalled the kind of power he had once personally experienced, and a wave of shock rose in his heart.
"This is an elemental world of the divine!" Jiang Chen whispered to himself.
He understood that each divine being is the ultimate embodiment of an element, mastering one or more elements and becoming the ruler of those elements.
Although only one divine seat can preside over a given element, it does not mean other divine beings cannot wield that element.
Like the water god that controls the Water Element, it holds the water god's divine seat and is the supreme ruler of water in this world.
However, that does not mean no other divine beings can use water elemental power.
And those divine beings who also command water will have their power suppressed when they encounter the water god, their control over water greatly weakened.
This is the crushing disparity between divine seats, the natural gap in power among divine beings.
Divine beings can create their own elemental worlds, which are the source and showcase of their power.
In such a world, their strength can reach its peak.
Jiang Chen was at that moment standing inside an elemental world belonging to a divine being, created by a deity that manipulates the Water Element.
No matter how the Water Element changes, becoming raging currents, or
solidifying into ice crystals, its essence remains the Water Element.
Facing this, Jiang Chen did not feel panic, because he possessed many trump cards sufficient to meet any challenge.
"Which divine being has brought this Divine General into this elemental world, and for what purpose?" Jiang Chen's voice was calm and resolute, showing no fear.
He displayed his three-star Divine General Badge, his glory and symbol of power.
This badge signified that he had slain three Divine Level beings, his record and pride.
Sure enough, when he flashed the three-star Divine General Badge, the howling wind and snow suddenly ceased, as if suppressed by an invisible force.
About a hundred meters away from Jiang Chen, a snow‑white figure gradually materialized.
This divine being stood ten meters tall, entirely snow‑white, exuding a pure and powerful elemental aura, and also radiating the inherent majesty of a deity.
Jiang Chen saw a true divine being for the first time; curiosity was there, but caution dominated.
Yet he also breathed a slight sigh of relief, for he sensed that although this deity's aura was strong, it was unstable, likely a newly risen divine being.
The growth of divine beings differs completely from that of the Human Race and Demons; their development is extremely slow, often requiring decades or even centuries to make progress.
From the other's aura, Jiang Chen judged that this Tianshan Snow God had been a divine being for no more than ten years, still in its growth stage.
"What may I call you?" Jiang Chen asked, his voice calm but no longer friendly.
Although the other attacked him with wind and snow, showing hostility, Jiang Chen still decided to first learn the
other's intent.
He was not cowardly; he simply did not wish to easily start a war with a divine being, for the cost would be enormous.
"You may call me the Tianshan Snow God." The other's voice rose slowly, carrying a hint of cold.
It was named so because it became a divine being in the Tianshan Mountains and excels at commanding wind and snow.
Jiang Chen nodded in understanding, then said, "I am Jiang Chen, a three‑star Divine General of the Shenlong Empire. Tianshan Snow God, you halted my teleportation, brought me into this elemental world, and attacked me; I expect a reasonable explanation."
The Tianshan Snow God's silver eyes flashed cold light on its snow‑white face, the elemental power flowing within seeming able to freeze everything.
It stared at Jiang Chen, its voice icy and firm: "Surrender the divine seat, or you will face utter annihilation."
Jiang Chen frowned slightly; indeed he bore two divine seats, one of the Poison God and another of the Thunder God.
When the Tianshan Snow God mentioned divine seats, an ominous premonition rose in Jiang Chen; he knew today's events would not be easily resolved.
The lure of a divine seat is indescribable for divine beings. For the newly risen Tianshan Snow God, obtaining a mid‑tier divine seat would be the opportunity it dreamed of, allowing it to ascend instantly.
"How did you know I possess divine seats?" Jiang Chen asked, bewildered. He had carefully hidden his divine seats within his spirit world and was unsure how the Tianshan Snow God learned this.
The Tianshan Snow God gave no answer, only coldly repeated its demand: "Surrender the divine seat, and I will let you go."
Jiang Chen's face
grew solemn; he realized negotiations were impossible, so his stance hardened: "What if I refuse?"
The wind and snow roared again, the Tianshan Snow God's White Light flickered erratically, releasing a fierce killing intent: "If you refuse, I will kill you."
Jiang Chen sneered, a trace of contempt flashing in his eyes: "Aren't you afraid that the Human Race's Divine Level will come after you? Killing a Divine General is a heinous crime."
Yet the Tianshan Snow God seemed unfazed, replying coldly: "Human Race's Divine Level? They may not necessarily wage war with me over a three‑star Divine General."
Jiang Chen's expression changed; he hadn't expected the Tianshan Snow God to be so brazen, but he also understood that the moment of life‑or‑death combat had arrived. He inhaled deeply, his aura surged instantly, ready to meet the impending battle.
He already had an answer: the Tianshan Snow God likely knew of his divine seats through some special sensing ability or secret method.
But now, that mattered only less; what mattered was how to handle the present crisis.
The Undead Legion suddenly surged, charging fiercely toward the Tianshan Snow God.
Countless lights flashed on the Undead Legion; the Lich General instantly applied a state, preparing for the great battle.
Yet, faced with the tide of the Undead Legion, the Tianshan Snow God merely showed a hint of disdain.
"Wind‑snow freeze!" the Tianshan Snow God commanded, and countless snowflakes fell like dense arrows, enveloping the Undead Legion in ice and snow.
Between heaven and earth, it seemed all temperature was stripped away, everything frozen into ice sculpture.
All of the Undead Legion, includ
ing the Lich General, were completely frozen under this powerful ice skill, unable to move.
The Tianshan Snow God's level and the ice skill's level were both extremely high, rendering the Lich General's skill unable to dispel the freeze.
The Undead Legion, which moments ago had been raging, now stood silent like ice statues.
Yet, in this frozen world, only Jiang Chen remained unfrozen.
He possesses a passive skill that grants immunity to all status effects, allowing him to move freely within this ice and snow.
The Tianshan Snow Deity saw the scene, a flash of surprise crossing its eyes, but it quickly resumed its snarling grin. It charged at Jiang Chen, ready to kill him in one blow.
"In the True Self's wind‑snow world, the True Self is invincible," the Tianshan Snow Deity said, its voice cold and confident, as if it had already foreseen Jiang Chen's defeat.
However, just as it was about to touch Jiang Chen, a spark suddenly leapt out from behind Jiang Chen, and a Flame Lich materialized beside him.
The moment the Flame Lich appeared, it lunged onto the Tianshan Snow Deity and clutched it tightly.
A raging Flame ignited on the Tianshan Snow Deity's body, forming a stark contrast with its icy power.
Its freezing skill was completely nullified beneath the Flame, while the Flame Lich clung to it like a festering wound.
The Tianshan Snow Deity, shocked and enraged, let out a Roar, trying to break free of the Flame Lich's grip. Yet the Flame Lich held it tightly, as if to burn it to ash.
In this fierce battle, the Tianshan Snow Deity's wind‑snow world began to quake violently. The Flame Lich, as a Pseudo‑God's full‑power strike, though not as strong as
the true divine Tianshan Snow Deity, was still enough to deal it a heavy blow.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen immediately retreated, and simultaneously ordered the Undead Legion to withdraw swiftly. The battle between the Flame Lich and the Tianshan Snow Deity was too intense; they had to keep their distance to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
The Flame Lich held the Tianshan Snow Deity tightly, while the deity kept Roaring and struggling. In this fierce clash, the entire wind‑snow world seemed on the verge of being torn apart.
Finally, with a deafening roar, flames burst across the sky. The Flame Lich and the Tianshan Snow Deity vanished simultaneously in the Explosion.
Jiang Chen exhaled in relief, knowing that although the strike hadn't killed the true divine Tianshan Snow Deity, it was enough to grievously wound it.
The upcoming battle would be even tougher, but Jiang Chen was already prepared.
What Jiang Chen thought of first was to destroy this domain built from elements.
In this elemental world, his opponent's strength was indeed not to be underestimated.
The smoke hadn't cleared when the second Flame Lich appeared.
Had it not been within the Shenlong Nation's borders, Jiang Chen could not pinpoint the exact location beyond the elemental world; he might have unhesitatingly used a deadly poison Lich to crush it in one blow.
But if the outside of the elemental world happened to be a bustling town shrouded in Poison Mist, it would cause an irreparable disaster.
The second Flame Lich silently merged into the lingering smoke.
Jiang Chen's Spiritual Power had been tightly locked onto the Tianshan Snow Deity, knowing its position like the back of his hand.
The Tianshan Snow Deity had not yet recovered from the first Explosion when the second Flame Lich appeared like a shadow.
"No!"
Amid the screeching Scream, the Flame Lich launched a lethal attack
The ice‑snow domain collapsed with a thunderous crash amid violent shaking.
The adventurers exploring the Tianshan Mountains looked up to see a sudden burst of scorching aura in the sky, instantly enveloping the whole heavens.
"What is this?"
"What actually happened?"
"What are those creatures, and how are there so many undead?"
"I know that person—that's Jiang Chen, Divine General Jiang!"
"Is Divine General Jiang fighting someone?"
