Staring at the familiar imperial sword, Ice Extreme Unparalleled, the Ice Bear King's eyes flashed with a trace of madness. He roared once more, spewing a thick aura of death from his mouth, aiming straight at Ice Extreme Unparalleled.
He could feel that Ice Extreme Unparalleled was far stronger now than when it was in Snow Empress's hands.
Even the power of ice it possessed surpassed that of Snow Empress.
This was Ice Extreme Unparalleled unleashed at absolute zero.
If he dared to use his own ice power again, it would mean certain death.
Yet, Ice Extreme Unparalleled advanced without hesitation.
The power of death was diverted like a gray river under the assault of Ice Extreme Unparalleled, which continued to slash down toward him.
The Ice Bear King was still unwilling to give up and tried to leap away to dodge. But to his shock, he realized that at some point, a thin layer of icy wings had formed in the surrounding space.
Absolute zero—it could even freeze space.
"Impossible! How could anyone comprehend absolute zero to this extent?!" the Ice Bear King roared. With space frozen, he couldn't even move, let alone dodge. All he could do was watch helplessly as Ice Extreme Unparalleled expanded infinitely in his field of vision.
Just then, the once-clear sky of the Tianxuan Continent suddenly darkened. A thunderous boom erupted high in the air. In that instant, the sunlight was completely blotted out by darkness, and an overwhelming, suffocating pressure emanated from the Gate of Death.
The Ice God's Heart jerked its head up and looked, eyes instantly filled with horror. A stream of gray airflow drifted out from the Gate of Death, gradually condensing into a vague figure. An ancient voice, filled with an indescribable majesty, echoed:
"With the sun and moon in hand, I reach for the stars. In all the world, none are like me."
Seeing this, Yali immediately sprang into action. Wielding the Sky-Towering Spear, she lunged at the figure.
However, in front of that figure, a small tower appeared. Accompanied by a low chant, death energy exploded forth, instantly engulfing Yali and even forcing back the Ice God's Heart.
"Your understanding of holy power is indeed profound, but my comprehension of the power of light is no less. My death power is born from the power of light itself—your divine force cannot suppress it."
The dense death energy quickly spread across the battlefield. Yali's sacred energy was rapidly overpowered and dissolved.
Without the protection of her divine energy, the united armies of the three races stood no chance against the death energy. In an instant, cries of agony echoed across the heavens.
"I am the Holy Necromancer God, the Plague of the Undead, Electrolux, ruler of the Undead Plane, the mastermind behind the invasion of Tianxuan Continent—without exception!"
"Did you really think that defeating the demons meant defeating me? The demons were merely pawns used to test this world. If all the Tianxuan Continent has to offer is a fake Goddess of Life, then I hereby declare this world mine."
"Don't worry—I won't kill you. I'll simply use undead magic to turn you all into undead creatures, transforming the Tianxuan Continent into an undead world. And I... will be its only god."
"Originally, I dared not directly attack the Tianxuan Continent. I used demons to probe whether the Sea God would intervene. But instead of the Sea God, I found only a counterfeit Goddess of Life."
"All resistance is futile. You must understand that before absolute power, everything else is meaningless. So stop your useless struggle. It's all in vain. If you must blame someone, blame that fake Goddess of Life. If not for her, I would never have dared to appear in this world."
Despite this, Electrolux did not immediately slaughter the allied forces. Like many villains, he basked in the glory of his presumed victory, boasting about his plans.
His face showed deep satisfaction, as if he relished having the world in the palm of his hand.
After rambling on for quite some time, Electrolux suddenly said coldly:
"It's over. From this day forward, there will be no more Tianxuan Continent—only the Undead Plane."
But just then, the Sea God Lake on Sea God Island suddenly emitted a loud hum. A blinding golden light shot up into the sky.
The golden light quickly condensed into a figure, which floated in the air.
Everything else remained frozen in time, but the moment this figure appeared, the distant ocean turned crystal blue, and even the sky regained its azure color.
The power of the deep blue ocean surged forth, and Electrolux's death energy was instantly suppressed the moment it touched the sea-blue energy.
Faced with the appearance of this figure, Electrolux's expression shifted to one of shock and fear, and he rapidly retreated.
"Sea God!" Electrolux shouted, his voice trembling.
But the Sea God didn't respond to him. Instead, he turned to the three-race coalition, smiled gently, and said:
"My people, you've already done very well. Leave the rest to me. I will save you all."
"Lord Sea God!" The human coalition, led by the Sea Demon tribe, erupted into joyous cheers.
The Sea God—a name they had revered for thousands of years—had actually appeared before their eyes. How could they not be shocked and moved?
Seeing this, Tang San nodded in satisfaction to himself:
"Fools will always be fools. So easy to deceive. I'm about to sell them all out, and they'll even help me count the money."
Tang San turned to Electrolux, his gaze deep and unfathomable.
"The time has come," he said quietly.
As he spoke, a Sea God Trident suddenly appeared in his hand. He waved it, and golden rings of light burst outward.
Electrolux frantically retreated, unleashing the small tower in front of him to pour out vast amounts of death energy and undead magic to block the golden light.
But all his efforts were in vain.
No matter what he did, the golden rings appeared right around his body, wrapping tightly around him, seemingly gentle yet utterly inescapable.
Layer after layer of golden rings bound him. Electrolux was now completely trapped, unable to move even an inch. Yet rather than panic, he burst out laughing.
Tang San frowned, surprised. "Why are you laughing?"
Electrolux laughed wildly:
"Of course I'm laughing at you."
Tang San remained calm. "What's so funny about me?"
Electrolux replied:
"If you hadn't made a move, perhaps I wouldn't have realized. But now, you've exposed yourself. You're just a soul fragment—and it won't last long. At most, you can strike me once."
At this, the hearts of the three-race coalition sank. If Electrolux was laughing, it meant he had a reason for confidence.
Tang San sighed:
"You're right. Gods are not supposed to interfere in the lower realms. Even with my lofty status, I can only make one move. But… is that not enough? My divine technique is enough to bind you for a very long time."
Electrolux sneered:
"Of course it's not enough. Yes, you're a God King, and even your soul fragment's divine technique is beyond my power. But don't forget—I've already reached the divine level myself. You can only bind me, not kill me. So what if I'm restrained? Let the people of Tianxuan Continent attack me—they can't hurt me."
Tang San smiled again.
"Holy Necromancer God, I should thank you. To take over Tianxuan Continent, you even sacrificed the Demon Plane to test me. Very strategic, indeed. But there's just one pity."
Eletrolux asked in confusion, "What pity?"
Tang San smiled faintly:
"It's a pity that I was even more prepared than you. I laid my plans even more carefully. To lure you into my trap, I've prepared for ten thousand years. Everything that happened today—I was ready for it ten thousand years ago."
