Chapter 502: The Bull of a Yunzhonghe-Cultivated Huang Aotian!
The black shadow was indeed incredibly tough. According to Yun Zhonghe’s combat experience, even if it faced the Cheng Family’s corpse ancestor, Mu Jixue’s ice arrows could still explode and blast it into bloody mush.
This ice arrow was infused with the ultimate cold and White Tiger power, dual-layered to the max. And it was the result of Mu Jixue nurturing it for days.
Mu Jixue only had three of these ice arrows. Each one was stored in the three gemstones on her belt, which were bestowed upon her by Master Youyue as magical treasures.
“It looks like we’re in for it.”
As the ice mist dispersed, revealing the black shadow’s unscathed sneer, Yun Zhonghe felt a lump form in his stomach.
Although they all grew considerably after the Four Beasts Secret Realm boosted their abilities, and they gained many more skills, the sheer strength difference remained substantial.
“Demon!”
Suddenly, the black shadow’s body started shaking as it formed a seal with one hand, instantly summoning a large black symbol.
The demon seal burst forth, and demonic energy surged like a tidal wave, blocking out the sky!
The black shadow stared at Mu Jixue, “Is that all you can do? Dimensional Daughter!”
Dimensional Daughter?
Confusion flickered through Mu Jixue’s serious eyes, but she didn’t have time to think about it too much.
Meanwhile, Yun Zhonghe was absolutely stunned.
He knows?
He knew that Mu Jixue was Huang Aotian?! How could this guy know?!!
Is he also a crossover person?!
“Leiling, protect Mu Jixue!”
“Yun Zhonghe?”
In desperation, Yun Zhonghe decisively ordered Chen Leiling to go protect Mu Jixue, keeping her always close.
Though many things were still unclear, Yun Zhonghe’s instincts told him that this was what he must do.
“Go quickly!”
Yun Zhonghe urged Chen Leiling, who, though reluctant, eventually rushed towards Mu Jixue.
Although she had sustained some injuries, the zombie physiology allowed her to quickly heal her wounds.
However, though the black shadow seemed completely unaffected by their actions, he acted as if they were just two stray dogs barking, not worthy of his attention.
It was as if everyone else aside from Mu Jixue was just an inconsequential extra.
Yun Zhonghe looked at the snow cloud sword in his hand…
“Not quite working, Snow Cloud sword is still in its deep sleep. Without its help, breaking through to the peak seems a bit difficult.”
Just then, a thunderbolt flashed across the sky.
The heavenly principles seemed to tremble violently!
At that moment, it appeared as if the heavens were descending…
Does this mean Master Youyue is about to achieve enlightenment? Did she bring forth this disturbance in the heavens?
The black shadow approached Mu Jixue step by step. Mu Jixue snorted nonchalantly.
She raised her hand and conjured dozens of enormous ice arrows, each arrow as powerful as the first!
But the black shadow merely chuckled, and demonic energy shook, causing something to emerge from the seal, smashing those ice arrows.
“Only relying on these optical illusions?”
He saw through all of Mu Jixue’s fake ice arrows at a glance.
That level of magic was already a stretch for Mu Jixue to perform even one, let alone so many.
“Why don’t you guess how many I have left?”
Mu Jixue taunted.
“Hmph, it seems you always keep that same smug face.”
As he spoke, the black shadow punched, targeting both Chen Leiling and Mu Jixue, causing her protective shield to crack slightly.
Mu Jixue winced, coughing up bl**d.
Yet, she didn’t retreat. She swiftly closed in.
“Frozen!”
Yes, the ultimate cold!
At this moment, Mu Jixue’s potential burst; the ultimate cold at her first aperture surged to its peak.
Two White Tiger spirit bodies emerged from either side of Mu Jixue, biting down hard on the black shadow’s arms. The ultimate cold within them exploded with a powerful force!
Demonic energy clashed with ultimate cold!
The black shadow’s arm was injured, with demonic energy freezing, yet struggling to break free.
But Mu Jixue’s proximity amplified the ultimate cold effect by tenfold.
Although she’s a spellcaster and frail as paper, she boldly closed in for battle?
Today, Mu Jixue fights like a female war goddess.
Perhaps to make up for the loss in Tianhai City, or perhaps due to her mission as Huang Aotian, facing fate, she ignited immense fighting spirit.
Additionally, fearlessness fueled her drive…
“How interesting! You’ve grasped the ultimate cold so completely already! This surprises me. But, how much of me can you freeze?”
A faint smile creased the black shadow’s lips. Even with full mastery of ultimate cold, spiritual power had its limits.
So much energy expenditure, how long can she sustain this?
But a few moments later, the black shadow’s expression altered slightly.
Because Mu Jixue continued her relentless attack, the frozen demonic energy even extended up his arm!
With a loud crunch, his upper arm erupted, black-gold bl**d dripping out.
That’s his bl**d – incredibly strong!
What’s this little lady’s spiritual power? So abundant!
There’s no way a Golden Core cultivator’s reserves would be this high, even if her mana capacity is exceptionally high!
Unless—
Nine-Ringed Golden Core?!
Indeed! Only the recovery capacity of a Nine-Ringed Golden Core could provide such massive amounts of spiritual power!
The Nine-Ringed Golden Core, fully mastering ultimate cold, and wielding the power of the White Tiger…
Is this the current configuration Mu Jixue possesses?
The black shadow had to admit, he underestimated the girl from the start.
But he couldn’t figure out how she did it.
The black shadow’s gaze darkened. He tried to brute-force through Mu Jixue’s freeze, but found it impossible.
His pride was wounded.
Behind him, “Demon” symbols surged towards Mu Jixue. Her eyes glinted with resolve, immediately freezing the incoming demonic energy.
In an instant, she froze hundreds of demonic energy strands.
“Fast reaction…”
The black shadow mused.
Her combat experience was too polished for someone her age.
Why?
Only Mu Jixue held the answer.
For someone always striving to surpass, to get far ahead, not letting him take the lead anymore, she trained and pushed herself relentlessly.
Though every time she thought she caught up, she was pulled back, this minor frustration only made her stronger.
In less than twenty seconds, the surrounding energy churned wildly.
Conflicts between their energies created shockwaves visible to the n*ked eye.
The ground below began to shatter.
The black shadow’s expression grew increasingly solemn; he didn’t want to get too serious, not expecting such growth from Mu Jixue. But she forced his hand.
And he might have to resort to some tricks…
But that felt like losing, somehow.
Using tactics against a Golden Core cultivator—what a joke!
He came here to win! For revenge! Not to lose again!
Caught in indecision, an angry cry echoed from afar. Suddenly, a skyward sword beam soared above, drawing down some divine power from the heavens.
Yun Zhonghe hovered in mid-air, his robes shimmering magnificently.
The path of the sword!
Responding to Yun Zhonghe’s call…
