2372 The Domination of the Godslayer Mecha
Song Shuhang drew in a sharp breath. His body shivered as he felt the bone-chilling coldness of Senior White Three’s palm.

“Whoa,” he exclaimed as the frigid touch sent shivers down his spine.

Could this be the legendary Ice Palm technique? The thought crossed his mind as he tried to make sense of the sensation.

As he contemplated, a strange energy, native to this artificial realm, flowed from Senior White Three’s palm into Song Shuhang’s body. Even Pavilion Master Chu couldn’t identify the nature of this peculiar energy.

Song Shuhang’s protective spiritual energy, body-tempering techniques, and the radiance of his virtues proved ineffective in blocking this foreign energy. Even the spiritual energy from the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Technique, which Song Shuhang was cultivating, came alive as it responded to this influx of energy.

The strange energy continued to pour into Song Shuhang’s core.

Song Shuhang’s core was anything but ordinary. Despite having ascended to the Seventh Stage and formed his Nascent Soul, his original spiritual lake remained intact. Within this spiritual lake, a baby and a whale coexisted harmoniously.

Senior White Three, with a puzzled look on his face, raised his head to examine Song Shuhang.

Never before had someone managed to preserve both a Fifth Stage Golden Core and a Sixth Stage Spirit Lake within their core upon reaching the Seventh Stage. It was a miraculous feat that Song Shuhang hadn’t exploded from this unusual arrangement.

“Don’t be surprised, Senior White Three,” Song Shuhang spoke while hoping his words would be understood. “Thanks to the guidance of Senior White and Senior White Two from the main world, my core is rather unique. But it’s perfectly healthy. There are no issues at all.”

Senior White Three nodded, his expression suggesting he might have understood.

Then, Senior White Three’s other icy palm pressed into Song Shuhang’s body and transmitted another special energy into his core.

As the two streams of energy from Senior White Three stimulated Song Shuhang’s core, the spiritual energy of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Technique surged, as if it had received a powerful boost. It automatically circulated throughout Song Shuhang’s body.

After a few moments, a subtle change occurred in Song Shuhang’s core.

Beside his Nascent Soul and the core of the spiritual whale, a small black lion shadow appeared.

Song Shuhang had encountered similar illusory figures in the past. When he was at the Fourth Stage Realm, before forming his Intrinsic Whale Core, he had condensed similar phantoms in his core. However, those phantoms from the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Technique back then were all golden. They exuded warmth and vitality.

The black shadow of the little lion before him, however, emanated an icy chill of death.

“Is this some kind of supplementary technique of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Technique?” Song Shuhang wondered aloud as he looked at Senior White Three with curiosity.

The Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Technique had numerous supplementary cultivation methods. Song Shuhang’s Whale Swallowing Technique was one of them and allowed him to cultivate by swallowing spirit beast crystals directly. The Encyclopedia of Animal Taming enabled the training of spirit beasts to reach the ‘little ghost spirit’ level.

Senior White Three remained silent, his expression serious. He had detected that, apart from Song Shuhang’s original core, there were actually seven other small cores in his body.

Each of these cores housed a plump and adorable little Nascent Soul.

Senior White Three once again looked at Song Shuhang, his eyes filled with surprise.

It was as if his eyes were asking, “How did someone like you not blow up yet?”

“I won’t hide it from you, Senior White. In order to create these seven small cores, I’ve already blown up.” Song Shuhang sighed faintly.

Senior White Three was left speechless.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Meanwhile, the city’s defense system continued to unleash a barrage of attacks on Song Shuhang and Senior White Three.

The Godslayer had disappeared, and they couldn’t allow the enigmatic ancient god to escape once more. Moreover, they couldn’t let the steel lion on the ground be taken away. This steel lion represented their hope for forging a new Godslayer.

Senior White Three extended his hand once more and pressed it firmly against Song Shuhang’s abdomen. He injected a surge of energy into it. He was seemingly intent on creating a small black lion beside each of Song Shuhang’s cores and Nascent Soul.

This demonstrated Senior White Three’s unwavering commitment.

At the same time, the two sets of the Thirty-Three Divine Beasts Combined Magical Treasure on Song Shuhang’s body activated automatically.

Two Impregnable Holy Cities materialized to shield Song Shuhang and Senior White. Two knights in golden armor stood guard against the city’s defense system’s onslaught outside the Holy City.

When Song Shuhang witnessed this, he was overcome with excitement, tears welling up in his eyes. It was the first time the Impregnable Holy City had taken the initiative to protect him!

The subtle feeling of gratification—like a parent seeing their child mature—was indescribable.

After Senior White Three poured an enormous amount of energy into his hands, he divided it into seven parts and sent it to each of Song Shuhang’s cores.

Song Shuhang shivered uncontrollably from the cold. It felt as though his bones were on the verge of freezing.
After some time, in Song Shuhang’s body, beside each small Nascent Soul, a small black lion had condensed.

Senior White Three finally breathed a sigh of relief. This time, he didn’t detect any new cores or Nascent Souls in Song Shuhang’s body.

Senior White Three had expended a significant amount of energy. Condensing eight black lions for Song Shuhang in a single go had left him visibly drained.

Song Shuhang’s hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes were all covered in ice crystals.

Gradually, the cold air turned him into an ice sculpture.

This condition resembled that of Song Shuhang’s adopted daughter, Li Yinzhu. Whenever her condition flared up, the cold air would emanate from within and transform her into an icy statue.

Senior White Three retracted his palm from Song Shuhang’s abdomen and exhaled a cold breath. Then, he clasped his hands together and returned to his usual stoic demeanor.

Under the watchful eyes of all, Senior White Three’s form disintegrated into particles and dissipated like a fulfilled wish ascending to heaven.

The steel lion on the ground also vanished.

After Senior White Three’s actions, Song Shuhang couldn’t hold on any longer.

His body became an ice sculpture and he lost consciousness.

Lady Onion, the hamster, and all the other pendants were also frozen.

As Song Shuhang descended, the two sets of Combined Magical Treasures formed into a steel lion that protected him as they landed on the ground.

Simultaneously… Song Shuhang’s World in the Sleeve could no longer endure it.

A burst of light erupted from the ice sculpture.

The 90-meter-tall Godslayer reappeared, covered in ice fragments.

“Roar!” The Godslayer’s megaphone roared in anger.

Once again, he had been toyed with by that ancient god.

Fortunately… the ancient god’s steel lion remained.

After venting his frustration, the Godslayer silently dragged the steel lion to the landing platform.

They would transform this steel lion into a Godslayer Mecha!
