Chapter 489: Shui Bing'er: One Against Three

"What kind of ice is this? I clearly have one more Spirit Ring, yet I am completely unable to break free." At this moment, other than his eyeballs being able to move, every other part of Ekao was frozen stiff.

To be able to cultivate a duck martial soul to the realm of a Soul Emperor, he actually counts as quite decent.

But a duck is a duck; even if packaged as a swan, it cannot compare to a phoenix. In the original work, he was no match for a level 57 Ma Hongjun at all, let alone Shui Bing'er, who is now at a higher level, has also consumed an Immortal Herb, has practiced Nan Feihuang's martial arts, and possesses two superior soul bones.

Shui Bing'er's current ice attribute is at almost the same level as Feihuang's, infinitely approaching the degree of Extreme Ice.

"Old E, damn it, Fourth Soul Skill, Wild Dragon Reverse Slash!" Seeing his companion frozen, Tianya immediately brandished his kitchen knife and slashed toward Shui Bing'er.

Ice condensed in Bing'er's hand, gradually transforming into an Ice Sword.

She met the kitchen knife with the edge of the sword; this was an ability Shui Bing'er gained after absorbing the Head Bone. It was not a soul skill, but rather this soul bone allowed her mental power to be greatly enhanced.

She could instantly condense ice into shape, turning it into various different weapons. Actually, Shui Bing'er originally wanted to learn from Feihuang and try using halberd techniques.

But as a girl, she felt that playing with that kind of grand, sweeping halberd technique didn't suit her, so she ultimately chose the more agile sword.

However, she is only practicing sword techniques slightly for now; the most important thing at present is still the cultivation of soul power. Feihuang promised her that as soon as she reaches the sixtieth level, he will teach her superior sword techniques.

Feihuang did not lie to her; the Dunjia Heavenly Book contains sword techniques, but Feihuang does not use a sword, so he had not studied them.

"Your martial soul is truly ordinary; even when using a slash with a soul skill, it seems you cannot cut through my ice!" Shui Bing'er smiled triumphantly. The cultivation method Feihuang taught her had completely purified her soul power.

The Ice Phoenix's ice already transcends the norm, and when condensed with such soul power, it is truly indestructible, second only to Lan Xue's Extreme Ice.

Furthermore, the cold air surged toward Tianya's arm along the point where their weapons met.

Tianya only felt the blood in his arm freezing. He simply abandoned the knife, let it go, retreated, and then, after using his intent to recall his martial soul, summoned it again.

It must be said that this guy's combat experience is quite good; no wonder he has done so many bad things and can still survive for so long while being hunted by Tianshui Academy.

Shui Bing'er swung her long sword, and a gust of freezing air blew forward; those soldiers without soul power were instantly frozen solid.

"You hateful little wench, do you really think we are easy to bully? Third Soul Skill, Cruel Hand Destroying Flower!" Bule's pair of cover martial souls enlarged, pressed down toward Shui Bing'er, and gathered all of Bing'er's cold air.

This move seems to be specifically aimed at attribute-type skills; Ma Hongjun's fire would also be blocked by this move, but later, because Ma Hongjun consumed the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, he could perfectly control his evil fire and thus burned it to ashes.

"Haha, little wench, you had better lie down obediently and wait for my affection. Fifth Soul Skill, Formless Strike!" Bule's covers disappeared without a trace, and a pitch-black aura shrouded Shui Bing'er; this was an invisible attack.

Seeing Shui Bing'er fall into the black aura, Yang Wudi spoke up, "Your Highness Flying General, should we step in to save your senior sister? One against three, and two of them have stronger soul power than her; this is disadvantageous."

Feihuang shook his head and said confidently, "No need. Senior Sister has a top-tier martial soul, as well as an Immortal Herb, a cultivation method, and a soul bone; she won't be unable to defeat these three."

"Fourth Soul Skill, Cold Ice Rapid Awl!" With herself as the center, Shui Bing'er and the Ice Phoenix rotated rapidly, and countless ice awls shot out in all directions.

This is a large-scale group attack move.

Bing'er's method of breaking this Formless Strike was very simple: since she couldn't see it, she would cover every possible angle of attack in the surroundings.

The sharp ice awls instantly pierced through the Heavenly Net Dual Covers. Although this martial soul can absorb cold air, it cannot face this kind of high-intensity physical attack. There is always a trade-off, after all.

"Ah!!!" Bule let out a miserable shriek, watching helplessly as the ice awls pierced his wrists, shoulders, thighs, and other areas.

Blood holes appeared all over his body.

Shui Bing'er spoke fiercely, but her heart remained too kind. She still showed mercy to such scum; when she could truly deal a killing blow, she held back and did not attack the enemy's vital points.

Otherwise, at least one ice awl could have pierced through Bule's glabella.

"Bule, Old E, how could it be like this?" Tianya was finally afraid.

Because of the suppression of a lower-tier martial soul by a higher-tier one, Ekao was instantly killed upon engagement, and Bule was now pricked into a hedgehog by ice awls; let alone fighting, whether he can even save his life is an unknown.

Of the trio, he was actually the only one left so quickly.

Shui Bing'er certainly would not let him go. On her forehead, a blue-white light flickered, "Spirit Bone Skill, Holy Ice Soul Condensation!"

The Light Spirit Sacred Beast's head bone granted Shui Bing'er a soul-attack soul skill, which, combined with her Ice Phoenix ice attribute, produced a skill capable of freezing an opponent's soul.

An opponent whose soul is frozen will become like a vegetable, completely losing their five senses.

Don't look at the fact that Tianya is a Soul Emperor; his soul strength is far inferior to Shui Bing'er's, and even his strongest Sixth Soul Ring does not have a higher age than this head bone of Shui Bing'er's.

Tianya only felt a chill throughout his body. The next moment, his entire person collapsed to the ground. Although his body was still warm, his blood was flowing, and his heart was beating, without a soul to control it, this body was just an empty shell.

"Done!" Shui Bing'er laughed. Of the three opponents, one had their body frozen, one had their soul frozen, and the last one was pricked into a honeycomb.

The outcome was decided.

"Haha, the little girl is truly amazing. Worthy of being a top student of Tianshui Academy. With the soul power of a Soul King, she can fight one against three, and two of them are Soul Emperors; truly impressive," Yang Wudi praised.

Shui Bing'er's excellence is such that they couldn't find anyone in their Po Clan who could rival her.

Indeed, birds of a feather flock together; the girl who can walk alongside Nan Feihuang, even if not as monstrous as him, is at least a genius-level existence when placed on the continent.

"Senior, you overpraise me. My strength improved so quickly thanks to my junior brother's cultivation," Shui Bing'er said. She understood that without the Immortal Herb, cultivation method, and soul bone given by Feihuang, she could not have achieved one against three.

"That is also due to your own hard work, Senior Sister," Feihuang said, then walked forward to Ekao.

Bule was pierced all over; even if he didn't die immediately, he would sooner or later die from excessive blood loss. Tianya's soul power is not strong, and it is very difficult for him to break Shui Bing'er's soul freeze on his own. If no one helps him, he will only be a living dead person for the rest of his life.

Therefore, whatever questions Feihuang has now, he can only ask this Ekao.

Shui Bing'er did remember to leave him a living captive who could be questioned.
