Chapter 445: Counterattack: Unparalleled Skill, Ice Extreme Peerless Seal

The high-speed spinning Wind Fire Wheel, like a sharp blade cutting through everything, caused the earth to crack and turn into an abyss wherever it passed.

Lan Xue gritted her teeth, using the body of her halberd to hold off Golden Crocodile's attack.

"Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang!"

The super attack speed of the Wind Fire Wheel was something even a top-level martial soul like the Mysterious Ice Halberd could not withstand; one could see that the shaft of Lan Xue's Mysterious Ice Halberd had already begun to crack.

The webs between her thumbs and forefingers also split open, and the fresh blood seeping from her palms flowed continuously down the halberd shaft.

"This won't do. Without Extreme Ice, Xue'er is completely no match for Golden Crocodile Douluo. Huang'er..." Nan Tianchen looked at Nan Feihuang with worry.

Nan Feihuang was just as worried at this moment, but he still said firmly, "Father, trust Mother. She hasn't given up yet and is looking for a chance at victory. She still has one hidden ultimate skill she hasn't used. If it truly comes to the last resort, even if I have to flip the table, I won't let anything happen to her."

In terms of personality, Nan Feihuang was indeed closer to his mother, Lan Xue; both were equally tenacious and full of determination, vowing never to give up until the very last moment.

"Eighth Soul Skill, Ice God's Wrath!"

Forcibly activating her Eighth Soul Skill, this soul skill of Lan Xue's was a strengthening state skill, increasing her freezing power, attack power, and defense power by two hundred percent each.

Although Extreme Ice was temporarily ineffective now, ordinary ice suddenly increased threefold, and supplemented by her immense attack power, it was still enough to move Golden Crocodile Douluo.

Golden Crocodile now had victory in his grasp and did not want to trade injury for injury with Lan Xue, so he decisively chose to retreat, avoiding the halberd of Lan Xue's counterattack. In any case, such an overly powerful state-type skill was also a burden on the Spirit Master themselves, consuming soul power extremely quickly.

"Senior Golden Crocodile, I think I've discovered your weakness." Lan Xue was already severely injured under Golden Crocodile Douluo's continuous attacks at this moment, but she appeared very happy because she seemed to have caught a glimpse of a chance at victory.

No matter what, she had to seize it.

"Since Tang Hao, it has been a long time since I have had such a satisfying battle with a master like you. This battle, I will definitely win!!!"

Disadvantage could not hinder her heart; instead, her fighting spirit grew even higher.

Shui Youlan smiled with relief upon seeing this, "Junior sister is still the same; she fears no enemy, no matter how strong. She will not fight unless she must win, and if she fights, she must win. Perhaps this is exactly the reason she has been able to reach this point today."

"What dream-talk are you spouting, Lan Xue?" Golden Crocodile had no idea where this woman's confidence came from. His Extreme Ice had already been filtered by him; did she not understand how great the gap was between Level 96 and Level 98?

"Senior Golden Crocodile, I discovered that, actually, the ice I unleash is still Extreme Ice; it's just that when it hits you, it gets downgraded by your hundred-thousand-year soul skill, the Golden Heart Protector," Lan Xue laughed.

Golden Crocodile frowned, "And so what?"

"This means that I can still use this move right now." Lan Xue took a bottle filled with red liquid from her bosom and crushed it in one go, then slashed with the Mysterious Ice Halberd, bringing the halberd shaft into contact with the red liquid.

"Is this move the Burning Ice Phoenix?" Although it was the first time Golden Crocodile had seen this move, he had heard of it. Back then, when a Level 95 Lan Xue used this move, even the Level 96 Sword Douluo, under the amplification of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, had received it very arduously.

Golden Crocodile, like the rest of the world, believed that Chen Xin had won the battle in the valley.

Only Nan Feihuang knew that, in fact, Chen Xin had not caught it at all, and because of that, he had been crippled for several years.

Therefore, Golden Crocodile still underestimated the power of this move of Lan Xue's and appeared somewhat careless. After all, the strength gap between Level 96 and Level 98 had long since surpassed that of a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

"Heavenly Queen Halberd Technique—Phoenix Dances in the Nine Heavens!" Lan Xue drew a phoenix in the air, and the burning Ice Phoenix appeared once again.

"Eighth Soul Skill: Golden Giant Strength Break!" Golden Crocodile Douluo used his Eighth Soul Skill again to clash head-on with Lan Xue.

The terrifying energy of both sides collided in mid-air, and the resulting energy tide instantly leveled the surrounding several miles to the ground.

The result of this clash was, without a doubt, a win for Golden Crocodile Douluo. With the Heart Protector, even the attribute power of the Ice and Fire Phoenix would be filtered, losing the power comparable to Extreme Fire and Extreme Ice.

Lan Xue was knocked down once again, spitting out blood, even bringing out a few tiny fragments of her internal organs.

Nan Feihuang had once been injured this severely, and at that time, he had relied on Lv Lingqi's Acacia Heartbroken Red to recover so quickly; Lan Xue's internal condition was actually no less severe.

The Hunyuan Immortal Grass was the immortal herb within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well with medicinal power closest to the Acacia Heartbroken Red, and when combined with the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, which had the strongest effect in consolidating the foundation and reshaping the body, her recovery was potent.

Lan Xue's physical resilience was actually far beyond the norm.

No matter how severely injured she was, she could still stand up.

Golden Crocodile wanted to press his advantage, but he discovered that his soul power was being obstructed, "What, my soul power? It's the Ice and Fire Power from just now!"

That was correct; even though it had been filtered, Lan Xue's burning Ice Phoenix still carried a soul-sealing effect, just not as strong as when it had previously crippled the Sword Douluo into a permanent invalid; Golden Crocodile Douluo could completely dispel it.

However, it was still no problem to obstruct Golden Crocodile Douluo for a short while.

Golden Crocodile circulated his soul power and began to quickly dispel the Ice and Fire Power within his body, and Lan Xue also took this opportunity, determined to seize that one chance at victory.

"I see it. My only chance of winning is this: the final form of the Heavenly Queen Halberd Technique, Unparalleled Skill—Ice Extreme Peerless Seal!"

Lan Xue held the Mysterious Ice Halberd high, and endless cold air surged. The cracks on the Mysterious Ice Halberd, which had originally begun to shatter, were instantly connected and fixed by the Extreme Ice, temporarily restoring it to the martial soul's strongest state.

Then, Lan Xue locked onto Golden Crocodile Douluo and thrust her halberd out, unleashing a shockwave of extreme cold.

"Unparalleled Skill? How could Mother know an Unparalleled Skill?" Lv Lingqi asked in surprise.

Lan Xue couldn't learn the Overlord Halberd or the Ghost God Halberd, so how could she comprehend an Unparalleled ultimate skill? Moreover, she had never even heard of this Unparalleled Skill, but the attack pattern of this move was very similar to her father Lv Bu's Peerless Heavenless Palm.

"This is Mother's trump card. Her Heavenly Queen Halberd already incorporates the two martial arts of the Overlord Halberd and the Ghost God Halberd. You know what Mother's personality is like, Lingqi. It is precisely because she could not learn the true Unparalleled skills that she stubbornly wanted to create her own. After researching for so many years, she has finally succeeded. Although it is not like ours, having three different Unparalleled skills to deal with various battle situations, she only created one, and its power is far inferior to a true Unparalleled Skill, but using it at this very moment should be enough," Nan Feihuang said proudly.

His mother was actually also a martial arts genius. If she hadn't been restricted by the Douluo Continent in the past and had instead lived in a world of higher martial arts, her achievements would certainly have been even greater.
