Chapter 627: The Third Extreme Ice: Shui Bing'er vs. Title Douluo Sky-Reaching

~8 min read 1,528 words

"Your Excellency Sky-Reaching, since Dian Wei spared your life just now, you should have cherished it. By returning to the battlefield, are you not afraid of encountering E Lai again?" Shui Bing'er said coldly.

Hearing the name of Dian Wei, Title Douluo Tang Ling shuddered subconsciously, and cold sweat broke out all over his body.

The sheer power and dominance Dian Wei displayed just moments ago, instantly killing five Title Douluos, had already left a deep psychological shadow upon him.

Subconsciously looking at the "Ancient E Lai" who was still wreaking havoc among the great army, he almost chose to retreat immediately, but seeing Tang San still fleeing, he knew he could not withdraw.

After today's battle, the strength of the Clear Sky Sect has already suffered heavy losses.

Tang Xiao is not necessarily a match for Lan Xue, who possesses Extreme Ice, and even if Tang Chen could defeat Nan Feihuang, he would surely be on the verge of death after today's battle due to the backlash of virulent poison.

It can be said that Tang San, who possesses the Asura God Inheritance, is the only hope for the rise of the Clear Sky Sect; as the last remaining Elder of the Clear Sky Sect, he must protect his life today no matter what.

"This is not that madman Dian... not that madman... it is not!!!" Title Douluo Tang Ling repeated in his heart three times, barely dispelling the psychological shadow, before looking at Shui Bing'er and saying, "Hmph, the people of my Clear Sky Sect have always been fearless; the Clear Sky Sect is the Clear Sky Sect that looks down upon the world."

"You really are stubborn to the point of death. Since that is the case, there is no need for E Lai to act; let me deal with you myself!" Shui Bing'er's aura surged and erupted, and the temperature of the surroundings dropped at an extremely rapid speed.

The Eighth Spirit Ring shimmered with a red radiance.

Shui Bing'er's long hair turned snow-white, and her blue clothes were covered in white ice crystals, making her look as beautiful as a fairy in the snow.

Her Eighth Spirit Skill originated from a Ten-thousand-year Snow Lotus; this type of Spirit Beast has no offensive capabilities and belongs to the support type, and its strongest support ability is to increase the power of ice-attribute attributes.

Therefore, this Eighth Spirit Skill of Shui Bing'er is to raise her ice-attribute ability by one level.

Never underestimate this small increase.

Her ice was originally, like Feihuang's back then, infinitely close to the level of Extreme Ice; now, this small barrier was briefly crossed under the amplification of this ten-thousand-year spirit skill.

In other words, Shui Bing'er, having activated the Eighth Spirit Skill's amplification, temporarily possessed the power of Extreme Ice.

This is the third Extreme Ice of the Gulei Empire, and also the greatest source of confidence for Shui Bing'er to dare to challenge a Title Douluo.

Extreme Ice, killing enemies across ranks, is enough to make up for the difference in soul power and the difference of one spirit ring.

Moreover, there is also a gap in the quality of the martial souls between the two sides.

The Clear Sky Hammer does indeed have the title of the world's number one tool spirit, but that does not mean every Clear Sky Hammer is a top-level spirit.

Even with the same type of martial soul, there are still gaps.

For example, Tang Chen, Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, etc., their Clear Sky Hammers had hammer bodies, weights, and innate soul power far exceeding other Clear Sky Hammers at the beginning of their awakening, which is why they can be considered to have stepped into the threshold of a top-level spirit.

Ordinary Clear Sky Hammers mostly hover between high-level spirits and top-level spirits.

Otherwise, if all Clear Sky Hammers were top-level, then there wouldn't be so many mediocre disciples in the Clear Sky Sect.

The real reason why the Clear Sky Hammer is hailed as the world's number one tool spirit is because of the many unique skills that accompany the Clear Sky Hammer, such as the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Ring Detonation, Great Sumeru Hammer, and Haotian Formation.

In terms of martial soul quality alone, Tang Ling's Clear Sky Hammer is inferior to Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix.

"Seventh Soul Skill: Martial Soul Avatar!" Shui Bing'er struck first to gain the advantage, transforming into a giant Ice Phoenix, and the terrifying cold air completely enveloped Tang Ling.

Tang Ling is not in his best state at this moment; although he barely summoned the courage to return to the battlefield through self-suggestion, as long as Dian Wei is still on the battlefield, the feeling of fear in his heart will not be completely eliminated.

In such a state, he can at most exert sixty or seventy percent of his strength.

How could he face Shui Bing'er, who possesses a ten-thousand-year spirit ring and soul bone, and a top-level martial soul? A layer of indestructible thin ice condensed on the Ice Phoenix's wings, turning them into the sharpest blades, and she slashed toward Tang Ling.

This is one of the ways to use Extreme Ice that Nan Feihuang taught her; back then, Lan Xue also used this to raise her attack power to be comparable to the Seven Kill Sword under the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and engaged in a duel with Chen Xin.

"Seventh Soul Skill: Weapon Soul Avatar!" As a Title Douluo, Tang Ling would of course not sit and wait for death, and immediately activated his avatar to resist.

The collision between one of Shui Bing'er's ice wings and the hammer body resulted in a draw.

But don't forget, the Ice Phoenix has two wings.

Shui Bing'er turned to the side, and the other wing slashed from bottom to top; Tang Ling was already too late to retract the hammer to defend with the hammer body, and could only rely on the hammer handle.

The ice wing grazed the hammer handle, leaving a scratch on it, and the cold air began to spread from that scratch until it diffused throughout the entire Clear Sky Hammer.

The speed at which his Clear Sky Hammer was frozen by the Extreme Ice was faster than Tang Hao's back then.

After all, whether it is martial soul quality, soul power cultivation, or spirit rings and soul bones, Tang Ling is far inferior to Tang Hao.

When Tang Ling tried to grasp the hammer handle again, the cold air attached to it could almost seep into his body, freezing the blood throughout his entire body.

But he couldn't not grasp it; he couldn't possibly fight Shui Bing'er without relying on his martial soul.

He knew that if he lost his Clear Sky Hammer, he would be nothing.

Biting the bullet and grasping the Clear Sky Hammer, Tang Ling frantically executed the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes technique, smashing wildly at Shui Bing'er.

He must end the battle quickly.

But Shui Bing'er chose to change her tactics, not engaging in a direct attack with him, but instead creating ice walls of Extreme Ice for defense; the Clear Sky Hammer could not break through the ice walls condensed by Extreme Ice and could not hit Shui Bing'er.

And Tang Ling was constantly being invaded by the cold air of the Extreme Ice, and the feeling of fear in his heart surged again.

Already at a disadvantage and with his state of mind compromised, the outcome of this battle was actually clear long ago.

Unlike Feihuang and Tang Chen, who were fighting at an altitude of several thousand meters, the battlefield of Tang Xiao and Lan Xue was only a few hundred meters from the ground; with his profound cultivation as a Level 97 Super Douluo, he could see the various situations occurring on the battlefield.

He never expected that with the Star Luo Empire having the advantage in both the number of Title Douluos and the size of the army, Star Luo would collapse so quickly.

If this continues, they will inevitably be wiped out.

He really wants to go down to rescue them now, but the problem is, before he could even act, the tip of the Mysterious Ice Halberd had already thrust toward him.

"Tang Xiao, you actually dare to be distracted while having me as your opponent; you truly do not know death!" Lan Xue said angrily.

Back then, she did indeed lose to Tang Hao because Tang Hao had the Clear Sky Unique Skill, while she had nothing but a powerful martial soul, and she had taken the wrong path in her cultivation, which is why she was miserably defeated.

But today is different from the past; she also has things that the Clear Sky Sect does not.

That is her precious son; her son brought her resources far exceeding those of the Clear Sky Sect, including Immortal Herbs, Extreme Ice, and exquisite halberd techniques that surpass the Clear Sky Sect.

If she were to lose again today, she would have no face to see her son.
