Su Yan cautiously stepped into the massive tomb on the fifth floor, feeling a bone-chilling chill. The air around him seemed to be enchanted, carrying a chilling freezing effect. It gathered at an alarming speed, as if to tightly wrap around his body and mercilessly freeze it into an impenetrable block of ice.

It turned out that this place had been meticulously arranged into a vast glacial world, with an icy atmosphere permeating every corner. This glacier not only possessed a heart-pounding cold, but also had a powerful freezing effect, like an indestructible frozen prison, which made people shudder.

Surrounded by such bitter cold, Su Yan felt as if the blood in his body had instantly solidified, its flow becoming incredibly slow. But he didn't stop. Instead, he gritted his teeth and resolutely moved forward. Looking around, the entire space was silent, with no sign of life.

At this moment, Shalltear, who had been silently following Su Yan, suddenly spoke up, "Normally, Cocytus guards this place alone. He's confident in his own abilities and doesn't need any help from others." Hearing this, Su Yan raised his head and gazed ahead, a thoughtful look in his eyes. After a moment, he softly replied, "So, he must be quite confident."

Shalltear nodded quickly, agreeing, "Indeed! He's truly confident, convinced that he can single-handedly hold this crucial layer." With that, the two of them remained silent, stepping forward into the unknown darkness ahead...

Su Yan nodded slightly, agreeing, "If that's the case, I'll have to be extremely vigilant and give him a good fight." He then turned his gaze to Shalltear, who was looking around warily, muttering, "This guy is a pure, emotionless fighting machine. He never shows any mercy! Fighting someone like him is such a headache."

At this moment, Su Yan gripped the Ten Directions Sword tightly, his eyes fixed with determination and focus. To him, the identity of his opponent was unimportant; as long as he could have a hearty fight and use it as an opportunity to continuously improve his strength and skills, that was all that mattered. Just then, a subtle "crack" sound suddenly rang out. Su Yan quickly raised his head, his gaze fixed on its source—a massive glacier not far ahead.

There, a narrow crack appeared on the once smooth ice. As time passed, it grew wider and longer, like the gaping maw of a ferocious beast, ready to devour everything around it. Then, a shocking scene unfolded: a giant insect warrior, its body gleaming with silver light, slowly crawled out of the crack.

This insect warrior was incredibly large, its four sturdy, powerful steel arms alone enough to intimidate anyone. Each arm clutched an incredibly sharp fang, gleaming with a cold light and exuding a deadly aura. As soon as the insect warrior appeared, it glared fiercely at Su Yan and the others, its imposing aura as ferocious as an overwhelming force, chilling the very air.

Su Yan squinted his eyes as he studied the enemy before him. Although they were still some distance apart, he could still clearly sense the intense killing intent emanating from him. This invisible pressure weighed heavily on everyone's hearts, like a mountain pressing down on an egg.

Yet, facing such a formidable foe, Su Yan showed no fear. In the next second, the insect warrior named Cocytus suddenly flashed and pounced on Su Yan with lightning speed. Its speed was as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it was close to Su Yan, bringing with it a sharp gust of wind. At the same time, an unparalleled force gushed out of its body, causing Su Yan's breath to stop.

Su Yan tightly grasped the gleaming Ten Directions Sword in his hands, his eyes fixed fiercely on his opponent. With a sudden exertion of force from his arm muscles, the Ten Directions Sword slashed through the air in a dazzling arc, colliding with the enemy's weapon with the force of thunder.

With a resounding "bang," Cocytus was instantly flung away by the powerful impact like a cannonball. However, surprisingly, his body did not fall to the ground as expected. Instead, after flying a distance, he quickly steadied himself and remained steady in the distance.

Su Yan's gaze was as sharp as a torch, fixed intently on this seemingly ordinary but in fact unfathomably powerful opponent. He secretly marveled, "This guy's defense is so strong! He's clearly not wearing heavy armor, but the hardness of his exoskeleton is simply beyond imagination!"

At that moment, Cocytus suddenly moved. He gripped his halberd tightly with both hands and began to spin rapidly. The halberd in his hand was like a high-speed windmill, emitting a chilling aura. Then, he swung it forward violently, and the halberd carved a huge semicircular arc. With a dazzling light and a sharp sound of breaking through the air, it roared towards Su Yan with overwhelming force.

The light was as blinding as lightning, its edge piercing, as if it threatened to tear everything apart. In the blink of an eye, it was already approaching Su Yan. In a split second, Su Yan reacted incredibly quickly, dodging to the side and narrowly avoiding the fatal blow. But the terrifying force still grazed his body, leaving a clanging metallic impact.

Despite the attack, Su Yan remained unscathed. Since becoming a god, he not only possessed extraordinary divine power, but his physical body had also been greatly strengthened, becoming far more resilient than an ordinary human. Even facing such a ferocious attack, he remained calm.
