Chapter 5847-5848
“Perfect, let’s try out my newly mastered technique.”
He stepped forward, facing the surging tide of beasts alone.
Against the backdrop of hundreds of ferocious beasts, his figure appeared so small, yet so unwavering.
He slowly raised both hands, his left hand outstretched, his right hand held upright with fingers together in front of his chest. In
his left palm, a tiny crimson spark quietly appeared, then rapidly expanded, transforming into a slowly rotating twelve-petaled fire lotus shrouded in chaotic energy! At
the center of the fire lotus, a wisp of dark golden dragon-shaped flame could be faintly seen moving, radiating a terrifyingly high temperature capable of incinerating the heavens!
This was the “Chaotic Dragon Flame,” a fusion of chaotic source fire and true dragon blood!
At the fingertips of his right hand, an icy blue light shone, not from cold air, but from an extreme chill that froze the laws of nature and solidified spacetime!
This was Kai’s simulation and evolution of the ice-elemental source power to its ultimate form using chaotic immortal power!
Ice and fire, two extremely opposing forces, now coexisted harmoniously in his hands, and began to slowly approach and merge!
“Return to the Origin of Chaos—A Dual Realm of Ice and Fire!”
Kai roared, thrusting his hands forward with a mighty shove!
“Boom—!!!”
Centered on him, the left half of the world instantly transformed into a crimson sea of fire!
These were no ordinary flames, but chaotic dragon flames, capable of incinerating magical treasures and scorching the soul with a mere touch!
The sea of fire churned, with faint dragon shadows flitting about; the temperature was so high that even the distant ice crystals and ironwood began to melt!
The right half of the world transformed into an absolute zero frozen world!
An extreme chill permeated the air, even space itself seemed frozen, revealing fine black cracks!
This was a spatial instability phenomenon that could only be triggered when the freezing law reached a certain level!
The boundary between ice and fire was clearly defined ten feet in front of Kai, yet they strangely intertwined and rotated, forming a Tai Chi diagram of ice and fire with a diameter of one hundred feet!
At this moment, the vanguard of the beast tide had already reached the edge of the Tai Chi diagram!
“Swoosh—!!!”
The Ice Soul Wolves that charged into the sea of fire didn’t even have time to howl before they were reduced to wisps of smoke in the crimson flames,
their bodies and souls utterly destroyed! Their icy blue fur and protective chilling aura were like paper before the Chaotic Dragon Flame.
The Ice Soul Wolves that rushed into the frozen world instantly froze into lifelike ice sculptures, maintaining their running posture, before being smashed to pieces by their companions surging from behind.
The extreme cold directly froze their life force and soul. The
Ice and Fire Tai Chi Diagram slowly advanced, and wherever it passed, whether Ice Soul Wolves or Xuanbing Giant Bears, they all melted like snow under the blazing sun!
The three-headed wolf king tried to bypass the Tai Chi Diagram from the side, but three chaotic sword energies unleashed by Kai instantly pierced its head, and its massive corpse crashed to the ground.
The silver-haired bear king was the most ferocious, and it roared wildly, its ice armor bursting with dazzling light, enduring the pressure of the dual ice and fire, charging towards Kai like a chariot!
With each step it took, a huge crater was blasted open on the ice, its imposing presence was terrifying! Kai glanced at it, extended his right index finger, and flicked it lightly at the charging bear king.
“Clang!”
A crisp snap.
The bear king’s charging figure abruptly froze. It looked down in astonishment at its chest.
There, a hole the size of a thumb had appeared, its edges smooth as a mirror. No blood flowed, because the flesh, bones, and even the soul surrounding the hole had been instantly and completely “erased” by an incomprehensible force.
“Thump.”
The massive bear carcass fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of icy dust.
The remaining ferocious beasts finally felt their instinctive fear, whimpering and retreating, dispersing. But the Ice and Fire Tai Chi Diagram had already spread out, enveloping them all.
A moment later, the ice and fire dissipated.
The basin returned to calm.
More than three hundred Ice Soul Wolves, eight Xuanbing Giant Bears, including their king, had all vanished without a trace, leaving not even a trace of remains, as if they had never existed.
Only the craters on the ice, melted and quickly frozen by the flames, and the eerie aura of lingering heat and cold in the air, testified to the brief but terrifying massacre that had just occurred.
Kai lowered his hands, his face slightly pale.
Simultaneously manipulating two extremely opposing laws to form such a large-scale killing move was quite taxing, even for someone with his current Celestial Immortal cultivation and the inclusiveness of Chaos Immortal Power.
But the effect was clearly satisfactory.
Crimson Cloud Demon Lord and Ling Shuang were completely speechless.
What they had just witnessed had exceeded their understanding of “power.”
That ice-fire Tai Chi diagram was practically like the work of a legendary immortal!
“Rest for half an hour, then continue on our way.”
Kai sat cross-legged, took out a pill to restore his immortal power, swallowed it, and closed his eyes to meditate.
Crimson Cloud Demon Lord and Ling Shuang quickly protected him, vigilantly observing their surroundings. But after experiencing that world-destroying scene, it was unlikely that any living being would dare approach this basin for a short time.
Half an hour later, Kai had fully recovered, and the three of them set off again.
The closer they got to the heart of the ice plains, the more frequent and intense the ambushes became.
After defeating the fourth wave of interception by thirty divine warriors, an extremely unusual area appeared ahead.
It was a circular ice plain with a diameter of over five hundred miles, its surface as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the hazy sky.
But above this area, a layer of pale blue, visible light membrane shrouded it. Complex divine runes flowed on the light membrane, radiating a powerful spatial confinement force.
“It’s an anti-air zone and a gravity superposition zone!”
Ling Shuang’s expression was grave. “I can feel that the airspace in this area is filled with chaotic spatial turbulence and a gravity field more than a hundred times stronger! Forcing flight will not only greatly reduce speed, but may also tear us apart by the spatial turbulence. We can only cross on foot.”
The Crimson Cloud Demon Lord tried to sense it, and sure enough, the flow of immortal power within his body became much sluggish, as if he were carrying a mountain on his back.
Kai looked up at the pale blue light membrane, his golden vertical pupils flickering slightly.
In his vision, the light membrane was not a simple barrier, but rather a complex network of countless tiny divine runes interwoven together, connected to the earth veins deep within the ice plains below, continuously drawing upon the cold air of the ice plains and the power of the earth veins to maintain its operation. Its complexity and energy level far surpassed the formations encountered previously.
“This should be part of a large-scale defensive barrier set up by the Northern Underworld God Clan, covering the main passage to the core area,
” Kai analyzed. “Traversing on foot is exactly what they want.”
Sure enough, the moment the three stepped into the no-fly zone, three neat military formations silently appeared on the icy plain ahead!
Each formation had fifty men, totaling one hundred and fifty God Clan warriors.
They were all dressed in standard ice-blue heavy armor, wielding uniform ice crystal halberds, their auras stern and their killing intent soaring to the sky.
This was clearly not the previous patrol or ambush, but the true regular army of the God Clan!
The three formations were arranged in a “品” shape, their auras connected, vaguely forming a larger battle formation.
At the front of each formation stood a powerful God General.
The general on the left wielded a massive ice crystal shield, his aura as steady as a mountain, a sixth-grade Celestial Immortal;
the general on the right held twin ice spikes, his figure agile, a peak sixth-grade Celestial Immortal;
the central general, though empty-handed, possessed the most terrifying aura, reaching a seventh-grade Celestial Immortal!
A flash of icy blue divine light flickered in his eyes, clearly indicating he was the true commander of this allied army.
Their strength and scale likely surpassed all the sects of the Tenth Heaven.
“You trespassed into the forbidden land of the Divine Race, breaching seven of our race’s defenses and killing over a hundred of our warriors,”
the central general declared, his voice as cold and piercing as ice rubbing together. “Your sins are countless. Today, we will use your blood to appease the heroic souls of our race and restore the dignity of the Divine Race!”
“Form the formation—’Northern Dark Ice Immortal Slaughtering Formation’!”
With his command, one hundred and fifty Divine Race warriors roared in unison, their voices shaking the surrounding wilderness!
“Boom!”
The three military formations simultaneously erupted with soaring icy blue light, which converged and merged in mid-air, transforming into a massive array phantom covering several miles in radius!
Within the phantom, the shape of the Black Tortoise was faintly visible, emanating a chilling aura of slaughter.
As soon as the array was formed, the temperature in the entire no-fly zone plummeted again, and the gravity field surged to nearly two hundred times its normal level!
Countless sharp ice shards condensed in the air, like swords hanging overhead, ready to fall at any moment.
Even more terrifying was that the array perfectly integrated the power of 150 people, forming a unified whole.
Any attack that landed on the array would be distributed among all those who set it up, making it extremely difficult to break through. And the attack launched by the array was equivalent to the combined strike of 150 people, with terrifying power!
“This is getting interesting.”
A hint of seriousness finally flashed in Kai’s eyes.
The Northern Underworld God Clan was indeed quite powerful, capable of dominating the Eternal Ice Plains.
But he felt no fear; on the contrary, he was eager to try.
