I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

East side, Eastern Sea Area, East King.

From the beginning, Jian Beifang was contemplating.

Among the three beings who have surpassed the Divine level, which one can he defeat?

The South King is out of the question; South King has achieved enlightenment in the Sea of the Dead, making a path in this Netherworld-like Domain, filled with countless undead bones that can’t be killed.

Han Zhan’s cannons can completely purify them, but he can’t.

The West King is not an option either; during the Four Kings Struggle, Jian Beifang had already faced off against West King, who, despite not being an NPC, possessed eerie close-combat abilities, making him a leading figure in boarding battles.

Now that West King has surpassed Level 100, no one except the Divine can rival him in boarding combat.

Even if he were to devour more Elements, facing humiliation is out of the question.

Thus, only one opponent remains.

East King.

East King’s ”Chixiao” is a massive ramming ship.

From the current situation, although all three kings have experienced varying degrees of Mutation, they still use their signature combat styles.

With ram attacks, he is not without a fighting chance!

Jian Beifang has thereby made his final decision.

Although he keeps saying he wants to lie flat, as the former North King, he has his pride.

His pride is to personally take vengeance on the enemy who stabbed him in the back.

Even if that opponent is now Divine!

On the east side of the Sea of the Dead, in the formless darkness, a massive object is moving at incredible speed.

It quickly breaks through the darkness, appearing on the Nether Sea Channel paved by the Other Shore Flower Sea.

That’s East King’s warship, ”Chixiao.”

The current ”Chixiao” has long undergone a makeover, transforming into a thorough Skeleton Warship.

At its forefront, a huge terrifying skull ram, burning with two Nether Flames, is charging straight towards the only point of light in the darkness, where the ”Garuda” is located!

At this moment, the calm sea surface suddenly stirred up a storm.

The storm sweeps up giant waves, lifting the sea surface on its course sky-high.

On the ”Chixiao,” East King sat at the bow, brandishing his blade.

The changes on the sea, he sensed them instantly.

The next moment, facing the sky-high surging waves, he gripped the glaive’s tip and swung it forward forcefully.

Underneath him, the ”Chixiao” seemed to resonate, transforming into a straight-edged blade, slicing the raging waves in two!

But the next moment, a massive fireball hidden behind the waves already loomed!

Facing continuous obstacles, the ”Chixiao’s” sailing speed slowed down.

In the unseen darkness surrounding, the clicking sounds of freezing sea surface emerged densely from all directions, converging towards the center.

East King gripped the hilt, letting out a deep and wild roar from his throat.

”Jian Beifang, it’s you!”

The answer was another Wind Blade.

Invisible Wind Blade flat against the sea surface, wailed as it came.

The next moment, the mast of the ”Chixiao” suddenly snapped, breaking cleanly with a neat cut.

”Ice Element, Fire Element, Wind Element...”

”Whatever Elements you’ve devoured, bring them on.”

East King’s arrogant voice echoed in the confined Domain.

The response was only Jian Beifang’s extremely cold utterance:

”Kill!”

...

West King, ”Hidden Moth.”

The skeletal chains have captured successfully, retracting back to the warship.

In an instant, the ”Hidden Moth” became an airborne cage, imprisoning numerous captives.

At this moment, with a sound of a mighty clang, the cabin door bound by skeletal chains of the ”Hidden Moth” was violently kicked open.

Upon hearing the sound, West King swiftly turned his head, seeing through the dissipating dust the person emerging from inside the door.

It was a young woman.

She appeared to be not even twenty.

But that’s not the key point; the key is, she merely used her foot to kick open the Level 100 skeletal chains.

”You’re a Divine too.”

This was a declaration, not a question. West King watched Feng Xiaozao approaching step by step, and spoke lightly.

”I can sense the aura radiating from you.”

”I didn’t expect there would truly be a Divine hiding in the world, willingly just working as an ordinary crew member.”

As he spoke, the skeletal chains retracted, forming eight spider-like thin legs behind West King.

The skeletal crew on the ”Hidden Moth” chose to charge from both sides, trying to control this variable.

Feng Xiaozao punched each skeletal crew member flying, sending them directly off the ship, clearing the scene.

Though she couldn’t completely purify these skeletal crew members, she could make them disappear from her sight.

In no time, only she and West King remained on the deck.

”Perhaps, we could talk, as Divines, there’s no need to subordinate ourselves. Join us and you can——”

West King’s elongated voice abruptly halted.

In the midst of his speech, he unveiled a surprise attack on Feng Xiaozao without warning.

Eight skeletal chains darted from behind him like venomous snakes, fiercely striking at his opponent.

Clang clang clang clang!

The crisp sound of blocks echoed.

Feng Xiaozao held up a Wide-Blade Giant Sword encrusted with gems, blocking them in front of her.

But she only blocked four of them!

The other four chains spotted the Wide-Blade Giant Sword, suddenly diverged in four directions like blossoming flowers, then redirected themselves, successfully hitting Feng Xiaozao’s body.

Blood, bit by bit, dripped onto the deck.

The attacks with the skeletal chains returned to West King’s back, his cold and sinister laugh suddenly resounded.

”Turns out you’re just an embroidered pillow not skilled in close-range combat after all.”

”Though you can crush ordinary people relying on your Divine Body, when facing a real Divine, your flaws are as numerous as a sieve.”

Facing West King’s mocking words, Feng Xiaozao silently tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.

Following Gongyang Jin, she had learned Sword Dao for quite some time, but this was her first real combat encounter.

Her first encounter, against a Divine-level opponent skilled in close combat.

Her gaze remained unwaveringly focused, firmly holding her ground between West King and the captives inside the cabin.

She responded to West King with a single word:

”Kill!”

...

The Sea of the Dead, center battlefield.

On West King and East King’s side, new battlefields have already opened up.

No longer distracted, the ”Garuda” can finally fully engage against the South King’s army of the dead.

Gongyang Jin returned once again to the helmsman room, gripping the helm tightly.

She was awaiting Han Zhan’s final command.

After the last batch of Special Shells finished the infiltration process, the Contracted Spirit Girls and Unparalleled Cannon Princess were all in position.

She could faintly hear, from the distant east side and overhead, the extremely subtle sounds of battle reaching her ears.

Han Zhan’s eyes gazed far into the dark horizon, where an eerie green ghost flame was hidden.

Resolved voice echoed on the ”Garuda.”

”Kill!”
