Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 362 Absolute Power

Huh, huh——

The tiny group atop the snow-capped mountain peered through layers of storms at the terrifying presence in the sky.

The biting cold wind, like a waterfall, descended from the sky and lashed at everyone.

"It's a blizzard! Everyone, defend!"

Bri quickly deployed a shield, barely managing to withstand the howling wind.

Amidst the raging winds, they gradually came to see the being soaring in the sky.

The Blizzard Dragon, also known as the Blizzard Dragon King, is even referred to as the Lord of Blizzards in many adventurers' diaries, a terrifying existence like a dragon god.

The Blizzard Dragon King is not very large, with a length of only 35 meters. Compared to other powerful beings known as Dragon Kings, such as the Black Lantern Dragon, Lava Dragon, and Forest Mountain Dragon, it is much smaller.

However, even though its size is smaller than most beings hailed as 'Dragon Kings', it is undoubtedly the pinnacle of Dragon King-level beings.

Its entire body is covered with ice crystal scales that shimmer with a silvery-white light. Each ice crystal scale contains powerful ice energy that can slow down any attacks that get close to it!
Its heart, located in its chest, is like an ice spring a thousand meters below the surface, directly influencing the environment at depths of over ten thousand meters.

As a colossal beast, it can even create a vast 'domain' that stretches for 30,000 meters.

Its breath is a blizzard, and its very existence is an unshakeable snow-capped mountain.

Zak, the second mate of the Ice Demon Pirate Crew, picked up his two-meter-tall shield-axe and asked:

"So, Captain, should we attack?"

Zack's fourth-tier class is the Berserker of the Blade Aspect, which is an advanced class for Berserkers.

This is a pure Blade Master class, whose job is to engage in one frenzied battle after another.

The crazier you are, the higher the reward!

Without a doubt, the Blizzard Dragon King's strength is already at the Saint level.

Among the many lost adventurers' diaries, the Blizzard Dragon King is the most terrifying being in the first half of the Coffin of the Sea, second only to the Tentacle Witch of the Merchant's Coffin and the Lord of Coagulation!
Its scales are even forbidden weapons of the fourth-tier legendary level that can be mass-produced.

Its Dragon Heart is hailed as the purest creation of ice, something every student of the path of ice must learn.

Its dragon eggs are something that dragon tamers in the Golden Flower Bird Kingdom dream of.

During this operation, Paru and the others also accepted a request for the dragon egg.

If they can defeat the Blizzard Dragon King, their adventure will be a resounding success.

Paru said almost without hesitation:
"Avoid war."

In Palu's original plan, they needed to reach the Witch's Coffin. Their role was to delay the Black Whale Pirates, and then Chenqi and Fen would enter the Witch's Coffin to revive the Ice Witch.

In the original plan, their combat strength was equal, and even superior, given that the Black Whale Gang was mired in the war!
However, the sudden appearance of the azure beast completely altered the balance of power on the battlefield, shattering the chessboard.

In their operations, the only thing they could rely on was his D20 domain.

During the ongoing battle in D20, Paru was confident that he could single-handedly hold off the Azure Beast and the numerous pirates behind him!
However, the D20's duration is only 20 minutes. Once it ends, they are like stray dogs, left to be trampled upon by others.

Moreover, they are now physically weak, and after nightfall, there will be a continuous stream of ferocious beasts.

During these days, they encountered Yetis, avalanches, and unimaginable extreme cold. Except for a few legends, everyone's physical strength was on the verge of its limit.

Let alone launching an attack on the Blizzard Dragon King, even if the Blizzard Dragon King were to crush their beloved friend in front of them, they could only endure it.

"Let's keep going..."

"Also, stay alert. I've sensed the presence of the Black Whale Gang."

Palu spoke very softly, concealing his spiritual power, and took a step forward, leaning on his cane.

The group followed behind the captain, braving the biting blizzard, and continued onward.

Unexpectedly, they were extremely lucky. The Blizzard Dragon King in the sky merely hovered and watched them without launching an attack.

Two hours later, the group finally came down from the snow-capped mountain and arrived at the plain.

boom!
A level three physician collapsed like an ice sculpture due to the extreme cold.

"Put her in the car, and we'll set up camp and rest right away."

Palu exhaled a puff of white air and gave the order.

The plains where they are currently located are surrounded by snow-capped mountains.

In the middle of the plain is a rectangular depression with sharp edges, stretching for 10,000 meters. This enormous tomb is the Witch's Coffin.

The temperature near the Witch's Coffin will drop again. Once you get close, your thoughts, movements, and even your soul will slow down, and eventually, you will turn into an immobile ice sculpture.

This is both a natural place and a sanctuary created by the original witch.

Under the protection of the Witch's Coffin, only the witch can move freely.

Meanwhile, an aurora-like barrier above the Witch's Coffin prevents others from going deeper. Only by collecting five Witch Relics can one open the Witch's Coffin, disable its defenses, and enter its depths.

Palu adjusted his cow-hair hat and used his spiritual power to probe his surroundings.

The Black Hunter has not yet reached the Witch's Coffin.

Indeed, crossing the ocean is not easy...

Palu could already imagine the scene of Chen Qi fighting fiercely against those monsters who claimed to be followers of the sea god.

If things go badly, Chenqi may have even been corrupted by the power of the sea god and become its follower!
"Try to be optimistic, maybe the Black Hunter's spirit can withstand the Sea God's corruption..." Palu comforted himself and then shouted:

"Follow me. We'll set up camp at the border of the Witch's Coffin and wait for the Black Hunters to arrive."

Can the Black Hunter really get here in such a short time? Bri picked up his backpack and followed Palu and the others to find a safe place to shelter from the wind.

Boom, boom, boom——

The group advanced along the ice floe, and eventually chose a sheltered spot about 1,000 meters from the Witch's Coffin to set up camp.

Suddenly, severe cracks appeared in the ice beneath their feet.

"Ok?"

Palu lowered his head in confusion.

Piranhas could be seen floating in the ice beneath their feet.

There's water under the ice... A question flashed in Palu's eyes.

The terrain of the Coffin of the Sea is bizarre and varied. In other words, this 'plain' may be a large lake whose surface is solidified, and the Witch's Coffin is a coffin built in the lake.

In other words, there might be someone hiding under your feet.

No, in such extreme cold, even a mad deep-sea hunter wouldn't hide in cold water.

"Everyone, watch your step..."

Paru shouted.

However, everyone fell into a brief silence.

In the blizzard ahead of them, a graceful figure was waving at them, holding a burning lantern!

Amidst the wind and snow, a light and cheerful voice drifted through the air:

Good afternoon, are you hungry?

"Everyone! Pick up your weapons and prepare for battle!"

Without hesitation, Palu aimed the Luck Gun at the figure in front of him.

Meanwhile, the crew behind Paru picked up shields and axes, heavy shields, and dual swords, forming a thick wall in an instant!

Everyone held their breath, ready to launch an attack at any moment.

The woman, amidst the wind and snow, slowly emerged from the icy ground:

Am I that scary?

Palu's pupils contracted. The other party was none other than Big Mom Carol, one of the seven great pirate generals he knew very well.

Carol was an old rival of their Ice Demon Pirates, but at this moment, there were two things about Carol that instilled boundless fear in everyone's hearts.

First of all, she was dressed very lightly in this heavy snow! In this environment, she was only wearing a simple white shirt and tight-fitting shorts.

Secondly, she was laughing very happily!
Unlike the starving and freezing man, Carol in front of me had a rosy complexion and a slight smile on her lips.

Carroll picked up the musket at his waist and said cheerfully:

“Palu, I’ve heard that you can transform into a woman, a man, or even a beast.”

“It’s the type I’ve never tasted before. Here’s what we’ll do, Palu, kneel down and lick my feet, and I’ll let your crew go and give them to my men.”

Carol gave a soft hum.

Although now he is even more eager to capture the Black Hunter.

But long ago, Carol wanted to add the captain of the Ice Demon Pirates to her harem!

Palu gripped his musket tightly, giving only a glance. Attack!

The crew members instantly understood and rushed forward.

Among them, the second mate Zak was the fastest. He suddenly turned the gears of the large shield in his hand and then transformed it into a giant axe!
The large shield in his hand instantly transformed into a cleaver that swung down fiercely.

"Blade Dissection. Berserker!"

"Blade Dissection. Power Transformation. Bloodbath Axe!"

Boom! The thunderous sound of drums rang out beside Zach, and behind him, a berserker five meters tall, clad in blood-red armor, appeared, wielding a giant axe stained with blood!

The giant axe, like a falling lava meteor, cleaved towards Carol's head!
"Using 'Liberation' right off the bat, this newly promoted fourth-tier recruit really doesn't know any manners..."

Gun-drawing technique!
In an instant, Carol bent forward, quickly drew her gun from her waist, and fired a shot at Zach's axe!
So fast! Zack was completely shocked. He was already in the air, but the other party was able to draw his gun in such a short time.

boom!
Fiery Spiral Magic Bullet!

The scorching spiral of flames condensed in the air, quickly forming a huge firestorm that shot straight towards Zach's head!

Amidst the spiraling flames, Zach, whose fighting strength had been greatly reduced due to hunger and cold, was suddenly burst forth, his entire body engulfed by the scalding fire.

"Before we arrived here, the Azure Beast hijacked the highest-level weapon case of the Magic Bullet family."

Carroll blew out a puff of smoke, smiled slightly, and reloaded the bullets.

However, the next second, something unexpected happened!

Before she knew it, Palu had arrived beside her, holding a magic book that he kept flipping through!
At this moment, Palu was dressed in a white mage's robe, and his azure eyes reflected countless patterns of magical arrays and runes.

The entire field of vision is a vast library!
This is... Carol was completely stunned.

The other person's image is like that of a saint of books in the Tower of Books!
Paru whispered:
"Dice solution. A momentary imitation."

Without any hesitation, Paru used one of his trump cards.

A moment of imitation requires a large amount of the 'imitated's' spiritual power.

As the captain of the Ice Demon Pirates, Palu once encountered the Book Saint in a lost ruin and accepted a commission to help him collect materials.

In return, the Saint of Books gave Palu a grimoire containing her spiritual power, allowing him to perform this special 'transformation'.

Palu rapidly flipped through the magic book in his hand, eventually forming one vast magic array after another!

Paru said in a deep voice:
"Great Magic Bullet!"

A torrent of spiritual power surged from the grimoire in Palu's hand, eventually transforming into a laser beam that shot straight into the sky!
This battle must be won quickly!

Meanwhile, above Paru's head, the twenty-sided die spun wildly, eventually stopping at the number 15.

1.5 times the damage!

boom!
Carroll couldn't react in time and could only bend his arm to block!

A huge white light enveloped her body.

Under this massive impact, the enormous blizzard was also dispersed.

As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, Carol, covered in wounds, spat out a mouthful of bloody teeth and gasped for breath:

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Numerous rune marks appeared on her skin, and her two arms, which were used for blocking, were dripping hot blood like melting candles!

Seriously injured!

As expected of the captain, he can even imitate that saint of books… Carol smiled:
"You've got some skills, Palu!"

"However, it's not enough. This level of liberation is simply not enough to shake the Azure Beast! It cannot shake the power of a Saint!"

"The Saint..."

Palu's robes gradually disappeared, and he returned to his normal state.

His own spiritual energy source could not support him maintaining the state of 'Saint of Books' for too long.

This instantaneous transformation drained most of his spiritual power.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Paru stretched out his hand, gesturing for everyone to step back.

Brie whispered:
"captain……"

"You are preparing to join forces and unleash a powerful spell."

Palu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. As the captain, he had to stabilize the situation first.

However, soon, a familiar figure appeared in the distance.

The azure flames burned fiercely in the cold wind.

The Azure Beast stood inside the Witch's Coffin, its azure pupils silently gazing at everything.

Then, he reached out and snapped his fingers!
Carroll couldn't help but burst into laughter:
"The moment the prey steps into the trap, they have already become a meal on the table."

Boom! Suddenly, the entire ground shook violently!

Suddenly, a colossal beast, hundreds of meters tall, burst open from the ice beneath their feet, like a volcanic eruption!

This is……

Palu looked up. Although he had been careful of his feet, he never expected that a giant beast was hiding beneath them!
A huge black shadow completely obscured their figures.

Paru looked up and saw the hundred-meter-tall behemoth before him, the Black Sea Elephant that had breached the thick walls of the naval base years ago—the masterpiece of the Black Whale Gang!

In an instant, the earth shook violently!

The Black Sea Mammoth swung its thick trunk and swung it violently, smashing it towards the group behind Paru!
Because of the cold, the people's reaction speed was not fast enough to avoid this heavy blow.

Boom!

This blow created a crater a hundred meters deep!
The Ice Demon Pirates were ambushed and suffered heavy losses!

The Azure Beast stood at a distance, watching this scene.

Apart from Paru, all those who tried to stop him were nothing more than weak ants.

The power gap between them is far too great.

"Times have changed..."

The azure beast exhaled a breath of fire.

During his era, on the Witch Sea, whether it was the Deep Sea Hunter, the Ice Witch, the patriarch of the Magic Bullet Family, the president of the Hunter Association in Moonstone City, or the bank manager, they were all his greatest enemies.

In this era, on the Witch's Sea, there was no one who could rival him.

This is a Saint-level expert, possessing absolute power!
Next, all that's needed is for the captain of the Ice Demon Pirates to initiate the liberation. Once the liberation is complete, this coffin in the sea will become his residence.

Boom! Boom!
The Black Sea Elephant, like a tyrant, relentlessly bombarded the crowd that was trying to get up!
One! And another!
"it's over……"

The azure beast remained expressionless and whispered.

However, the moment he finished speaking, the Azure Beast's pupils suddenly contracted.

Suddenly, a huge black lightning bolt flashed in the space to their left.

Lightning? The azure beast turned its head and looked towards the distant horizon.

Black lightning is a phenomenon of spatial leap...

A ship, wanting to sail directly into the frigid ice field?
Once a ship sails onto the ice field, it becomes a wrecked vehicle without wheels.

This is a path to death... The Azure Beast silently raised its right hand.

Deep blue vortexes of fire kept forming in his right hand!
He could destroy the Black Hunter's ghost ship with the strength of just one hand!

Boom!

More and more black lightning bolts appeared, and the entire space seemed to be in a raging thundercloud!

Unlike the Black Whale Gang, the Azure Beast did not see the Black Hunter and the Witch as beings that needed to be captured alive.

Perhaps, one day in the future, the Black Hunter and the Witch will be able to defeat him.

However, he was not a battle maniac; in this vast ocean, he did not need any being who could rival him.

"Bye now……"

The Azure Hand spoke softly, releasing the vortex in its hand.

Boom!

However, before he could finish speaking, a ship of natural disaster was launched out of the crack!

A heavy shadow fell over the people engaged in fierce fighting.

Almost instantly, a giant ship engulfed in raging ghostly flames, along with the Azure Beast and the Black Sea Elephant in front of it, were all sent flying!
