Chapter 209: Ice Emperor Hai Bodong

"Hehe, it seems you came for the fragmented map. However, I will give you that fragmented map, but don't even think about the other half." Hai Bodong sneered and turned around, preparing to leave.

Although Hai Bodong knew the fragmented map was very important—after all, even Queen Medusa wanted to obtain it—he had studied it for so long and hadn't discovered any value in it.

Xiao Yan was so young, yet his strength was so terrifying. The Gama Empire couldn't cultivate such a genius, so in Hai Bodong's cognition, Xiao Yan must have come from Zhongzhou or some other major force.

However, Hai Bodong truly couldn't afford to provoke such a force. Adhering to the principle that more trouble is worse than less, Hai Bodong chose not to provoke him. Anyway, the other half of the fragmented map was still in his hands; if the fragmented map really had value, Xiao Yan would offer a higher price.

"The taste of being sealed isn't good, is it? Do you want to have the seal broken?" Seeing Hai Bodong choose to leave directly, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and offered a very tempting price.

After hearing Xiao Yan's words, Hai Bodong's body shook violently, an expression of astonishment appearing on his face, followed by looking at Xiao Yan in disbelief, saying: "How did you know?"

"Why are you so insistent on fighting me?" Hai Bodong asked with a frown.

"Let's try close-quarters combat!" Xiao Yan brandished the giant blade in his hand and attacked Hai Bodong fiercely.

"Such strong power!" Hai Bodong widened his eyes, feeling extremely shocked in his heart.

"What does it matter if your moves are exquisite! Watch me break it with sheer force!" Xiao Yan shouted loudly, the Dou Qi in his hand erupting suddenly, golden light flickering on the blade.

"Because an opponent like you is truly rare!" Xiao Yan said earnestly.

"Take this move, Flame Fist!" Following Xiao Yan's loud shout, a giant flame fist condensed and shot explosively toward Hai Bodong.

"Wind God Leg, Fifth Form: Wind Sweeps the Ruined Tower!"

"Hehe, it's a pity you are not an ordinary Dou Ling." Xiao Yan said with a faint smile.

Hai Bodong quickly formed seals with his hands in front of him, and ice cones condensed in the air into a giant ice cone, shooting toward Xiao Yan.

Seeing Xiao Yan wanting to engage in hand-to-hand combat, Hai Bodong didn't say much, his figure flashing as he attacked Xiao Yan fiercely.

The two fought for an entire night, yet they still hadn't determined a winner, and both were somewhat exhausted.

However, Hai Bodong's long spear was not so easily blocked. The spear danced continuously, forcing Xiao Yan to only defend passively, unable to take the initiative to attack.

"Then come on!" Xiao Yan shouted loudly, his feet slamming into the ground, his whole person charging forward like an arrow leaving the bow.

"Come again!" After one strike yielded no results, Xiao Yan slashed out with his blade again.

"Mysterious Ice Shield!"

In terms of technique, Xiao Yan was inferior to Hai Bodong; in terms of power, Hai Bodong was inferior to Xiao Yan. Thus, the two were evenly matched, and neither could do anything to the other.

After the Mysterious Ice Shield shattered, the Flame Fist also seemed to have exhausted its power, dissipating directly in the air.

"Clang!" Hai Bodong's long spear was shaken until it broke, falling to the ground with a crisp sound.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan had to return to defense, brandishing the giant blade in his hand to deflect Hai Bodong's long spear.

"This round can be considered a draw, right!" Xiao Yan looked at Hai Bodong and said indifferently.

Hai Bodong looked at the rapidly flying Flame Fist, his heart feeling a shock. Flame was precisely his nemesis, and this Flame Fist contained terrifying energy; if he didn't handle it carefully, he would definitely suffer a loss.

"Overturning Seas and Rivers!"

Seeing that even the Flame Fist couldn't do anything to Hai Bodong, Xiao Yan took out the Snow Drink Mad Blade from his storage ring.

"So that's how it is. An opponent like you is also very rare! I also really want to test your skills!" Seeing Xiao Yan speak so earnestly, Hai Bodong knew that Xiao Yan truly just wanted to spar with him.

Hai Bodong quickly condensed five Mysterious Ice Mirrors in front of him to resist Xiao Yan's attack, and after being smashed, he could control the fragments to attack the target.

"Tearing Heaven and Parting Clouds!"

Throughout Xiao Yan's journey, the opponents he encountered were either too powerful or too weak.

"Mirror of Condensed Ice!"

"Mysterious Ice Giant Cone!"

Hai Bodong knew his strength wasn't as great as Xiao Yan's, so naturally, he wouldn't clash head-on with Xiao Yan again. The long spear in his hand danced like a spirit snake, its angles extremely tricky, stabbing toward Xiao Yan's vital points.

"Bang!" Xiao Yan's leg was like an electric drill, slamming fiercely into the Mysterious Ice Mirror. A powerful force erupted instantly, and all five Mysterious Ice Mirrors were smashed by Xiao Yan one by one.

It was no wonder; Hai Bodong was, after all, a veteran expert, and before being sealed, he was a five-star Dou Huang with extremely rich combat experience. Although he was a Dou Ling now, in terms of true strength, he was definitely not weaker than a Dou Wang. Xiao Yan truly found it difficult to take advantage.

"You are quite good. With only the strength of a Great Dou Master, you are actually this powerful. An ordinary Dou Ling is truly no match for you." Hai Bodong praised.

Xiao Yan's figure rotated rapidly, bringing along all the objects in the vicinity as he attacked Hai Bodong fiercely.

"Cold Ice Break!"

"That's exactly what I intended!" Hai Bodong also felt extremely excited at this moment. He hadn't taken action for a long time, and today he could finally show off his skills.

Xiao Yan shouted loudly, his body erupting with a surging force, his hands slamming fiercely toward the flying ice cones.

Seeing this, Hai Bodong hurriedly held his long spear horizontally in front of his chest, gripping the spear with both hands to block this blade.

A forty-meter golden giant blade, mixed with terrifying force, slashed directly toward Hai Bodong's chest.

"I'll tell you after you win!" Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Boom!" Accompanied by a loud sound, the ice cones were directly shattered by Xiao Yan's palms, transforming into countless fragments that scattered in the air.

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he put away the Snow Drink Mad Blade in his hand, his figure rushing toward Hai Bodong again, then throwing a punch.

Xiao Yan pushed with both palms, and the rolling air waves were like the waves on the sea, directly shattering all the fractured Mysterious Ice.

A long spear condensed rapidly in Hai Bodong's hand, followed by a flash as he charged toward Xiao Yan.

"Clang!" Accompanied by a loud sound, the giant blade in Xiao Yan's hand slashed fiercely onto Hai Bodong's long spear, shaking Hai Bodong's hands until they were numb, almost unable to hold the spear.

The moment the mirror shattered, Hai Bodong transformed these fractured Mysterious Ice into countless spiral ice crystals, shooting toward Xiao Yan in a sky-covering manner.

Hai Bodong condensed a thick, semi-circular shield in front of him, preparing to resist Xiao Yan's Flame Fist.

"Boom!" The Flame Fist slammed fiercely into the Mysterious Ice Shield. After the two stalemated for a long time, following a loud sound, the Mysterious Ice Shield shattered, transforming into countless fragments that splashed in all directions.

Although that giant black bear in the Magical Beast Mountain Range was quite good, it was a magical beast after all, and it was different from a person; it was very boring to fight.

Being forced to defend passively all along made Xiao Yan feel extremely stifled. He had never suffered such a big loss before.

"Sweeping the Army!"

"Try this move! If this move still can't defeat you, then you win!" Xiao Yan knew that if he didn't use his trump card, he wouldn't be able to determine a winner if they continued fighting.

"Good! Let's determine the winner with one move!" Hai Bodong nodded and said.
