Chapter 561: Victory! I Have Come to Save You

~8 min read 1,444 words

"It is over, Bingdi, Xuedi. Unparalleled Skill—Heavenly Tyrant Unparalleled Carving!" Feihuang's final strike was the strongest of the three Unparalleled techniques of the Ghost God Halberd Technique.

True Unparalleled—Heavenly Tyrant Unparalleled Carving.

Gathering all power into the halberd blade to slash down, the attack is increased by 300% compared to a normal Unparalleled, and the user's Tyrant Body receives no hit-stun from normal attacks for 10 seconds.

In other words, this is a move that allows Feihuang to be in an invincible state for a full 10 seconds while charging, which cannot be interrupted, and delivers a strike with attack power increased by three times that of a normal Unparalleled skill.

"Bing'er, this move is very dangerous. We cannot let him successfully charge it. Interrupt him with all your might." Xuedi stood up, enduring her injuries.

As the strongest existence in the Extreme North, although her injuries were severe, they were still bearable for her; in any case, she would not sit and wait for death.

"Ice Emperor's Wrath!"

"Emperor Sword—Ice Extreme Unparalleled!"

Bingdi and Xuedi gathered their final strength, unleashing their respective strongest strikes, slamming heavily into Feihuang.

Yet, no matter how powerful they were, they were still not at the God level. Feihuang's current Tyrant Body state was even more overbearing than Xiao Wu's Invincible Golden Body; within these 10 seconds, he truly did not budge an inch.

"Slash!" Feihuang let out an angry roar, and the Fangtian Halberd transformed into a giant halberd. Its length was indiscernible because this halberd had already pierced through the sky, its blade surging toward the cosmos. If Feihuang were to cleave down with this halberd, even if an army of one hundred thousand were before him, they might instantly turn to dust, and even some hundred-level God Officials might perish under this halberd.

A monstrous storm rose with Feihuang at its center, the sea of clouds churned, and all the clouds were pushed away by the halberd blade.

The power of Bingdi and Xuedi was instantly torn apart. The ice mountain behind them immediately vanished from everyone's sight. The earth cracked for hundreds of meters, and a bottomless chasm appeared. This strike altered the terrain; great mountains were razed to flat ground, and flat ground turned into precipitous cliffs.

Just as Feihuang was about to successfully kill the two emperors, he deliberately deflected his power, directing the remaining force toward the sky and piercing a large hole through it.

Bingdi and Xuedi had now completely lost their ability to fight, and it would be easy for Feihuang to kill them. Therefore, he wanted to persuade them once more; if they were willing to Sacrifice, Feihuang would leave them another path to godhood.

Otherwise, he would have no choice but to kill them by force. He was a Spirit Master, and hunting Spirit Beasts for Spirit Rings was only natural. He would have no moral burden in killing them, nor would he consider himself to be slaughtering the innocent.

He still possessed this bit of ruthless temperament.

Feihuang held the Fangtian Halberd and slowly walked toward Bingdi and Xuedi.

In truth, although his strength far exceeded theirs, it was two against one, and they should not have lost so miserably.

There were many factors, the most important of which was attribute suppression and attribute restraint.

Both were of the ice attribute, and when Extreme Ice met even stronger Extreme Ice, it was like ordinary ice meeting Extreme Ice; its power would be suppressed by several layers.

And Extreme Fire, when its attribute power was stronger, completely countered Extreme Ice.

Furthermore, there was intelligence. Feihuang knew too much about the fighting styles of these two Ice and Snow Emperors, and even their trump card, the Xue Wu Extreme Ice Domain. By calculating against the unprepared, both of their thoughts were within Feihuang's calculations.

He knew that the Ice and Snow Emperors actually had one final ultimate move, which was to gather the power of Bingdi and Xuedi into a single palm, forming a massive ice-storm vortex of white and emerald to attack the opponent, an attack skill known as the Pride of the Ice and Snow Emperors.

The name was tacky, but the power was immense. It was just a pity that after they were controlled by their own Xue Wu Extreme Ice Domain, it was already too late to use this move. With such step-by-step targeting, how could Feihuang not win? A commander must engrave the saying "know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated" into their life motto.

Looking at Nan Feihuang before her, Xuedi said sorrowfully, "Do it, human!"

"Damn it, you want to obtain this emperor's Spirit Ring? Even if this emperor self-destructs... Ngh!" Bingdi had a tougher personality and seemed to want to resist, or even self-destruct to perish together with Feihuang.

It was a pity that this, too, was within Feihuang's calculations.

The cold air of the Xue Wu Extreme Ice Domain had already frozen the flow of their soul power. At this moment, even if they wanted to self-destruct, they could not mobilize the soul power within their bodies and could only be slaughtered.

"Bingdi, stop resisting. You can't even move now, what are you going to use to fight me to the death?" Feihuang asked with a smile.

"Human, what exactly do you want to do?" While Bingdi was still raging impotently, Xuedi was the first to calm down, worthy of being the King of the Extreme North.

"You could have killed us just now, but you held back at the last moment. I don't understand your meaning."

"My goal? It's very simple. Actually, I came to the Extreme North specifically to save you two," Feihuang smiled.

His opening line was learned from the strategists of the Three Kingdoms period.

Whether it was Zhuge Liang or Sima Yi, every time they went to persuade someone to surrender, they never seemed to say "I am here to persuade you," but rather "I am here to save you." They would seize the initiative from the start, creating an atmosphere where it wasn't that I needed you, but that only I could help you, and you had no choice but to accept my help, thereby occupying the initiative in the negotiations.

Bingdi's two large pincers moved, and she sneered, "Heh, save us? Are you joking? In this Extreme North, even if Ditian came in person, he couldn't do anything to us. What danger could we possibly be in? Even if there were, it would come from you!"

The person who had beaten them into such severe injuries claimed to have come to save them; how ridiculous was that? How could she believe him?

"That's right. In this world, there are very few who can contend with you, but besides enemies, there is one other thing that can kill you: the limit of every one hundred thousand years. Xuedi, you are now... your next limit is not far off. Ask yourselves, what is the probability of passing that limit?" Feihuang questioned with a serious expression.

As if poked in a sore spot, both Xuedi and Bingdi frowned. The Spirit Beast limit was harder each time.

Bingdi admitted that her chance of passing the four-hundred-thousand-year limit was less than thirty percent, and Xuedi's seven-hundred-thousand-year limit was not even one percent. For Xuedi, facing the seven-hundred-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation was almost no different from fighting a god; she had no chance of winning at all.

The difficulty of the Spirit Beast Heavenly Tribulation was truly too high now.

To date, there had been few Spirit Beasts that had successfully passed the seven-hundred-thousand-year limit in the past million years. Besides Tianmeng Iceworm, who had inexplicably coasted through it, there was only the Deep Sea Demon Whale King in the ocean, and on the continent, there were Ditian and the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord; they were all super Spirit Beasts possessing supreme bodies and souls.

Xuedi admitted that her Extreme Ice would not lose to them in battle, but if comparing physical strength alone, she was truly far behind them.

Xuedi even had the idea long ago that if the limit approached and her strength had no qualitative leap, she would use a special method to transform into a human and re-cultivate to avoid the next great tribulation. In the original work, she did indeed do this, but it was a pity that she was captured after transforming into a Spirit Beast embryo and was almost made into a Second Martial Soul.

In the end, she became Huo Yuhao's Spirit Soul, and facts proved that this method was not reliable either.
