Chapter 1170

Even driving the power of the Dao was incredibly difficult!

One could say that if a weaker Dao Lord were frozen by this ice, he would have no choice but to accept death.

It's not that the power of the Dao isn't strong.

It's that you simply cannot drive the power of the Dao at all!

The power of the Dao has always been extraordinarily potent, but it depends on who wields it.

The strength of an attack using the power of the Dao depends on one's mastery and understanding of the Dao, the divine power driving it, the strength of the deity's divine body, and many other factors.

An attack driven by a Supreme Deity's power of the Dao could instantly kill a being like Duolong Dazun.

But the power of the Dao driven by an ordinary Dao Lord could be easily shattered by Duolong Dazun!

Duolong Dazun clenched his hand, crushing the ice once more into a bead, and at the very center of this bead was Lin Yan.

It looked as if Lin Yan had been completely frozen inside, unable to move.

If this were any ordinary fourth-tier deity, the ice would freeze his thoughts entirely, rendering even his thoughts unable to function normally.

If thoughts cannot function, how can one attack?

This is the power of Duolong Dazun!

In ancient times, the starry sky was truly the starry sky, but the stars here were not all stars emitting light and heat.

Among these stars, many were peculiar.

For example, the Sacred Flame Star—there once were naturally born Sacred Flame Stars, though none as powerful as Lin Yan's transformed Sacred Flame Sun.

Another example: the Cold Flame Star that Duolong Dazun devoured!

The light emitted by this Cold Flame Star does not bring heat—it only absorbs heat.

This is somewhat similar to Lin Yan's Ice Flame.

In fact, the Ice Flame on the Continent of Deities was once brought down by deities from the Cold Flame Star.

In the star region where the Cold Flame Star resides, ice has remained unmelting for billions of years.

The temperature at the core of the Cold Flame Star plummeted to an extreme low.

The absolute zero Lin Yan knew before his transmigration meant nothing before the Cold Flame Star.

And yet, such an terrifying Cold Flame Star was completely devoured by Duolong Dazun!

This granted Duolong Dazun an exceedingly terrifying power.

Moreover, this power is precisely the opposite of fire.

One is extreme heat.

One is extreme cold!

"The Flame Lord has been frozen!"

Seeing Lin Yan frozen inside Duolong Dazun's bead, some deities grew anxious.

As the one directly involved, Duolong Dazun was instead terrifyingly cautious.

He took another bead from his wrist and flicked it toward the first.

The two beads instantly merged.

Below, the deities saw the ice bead imprisoning Lin Yan grow even more solid.

"Even if you drive the power of the Dao, you won't break free of my Cold Multi-Cage."

Duolong Dazun snorted softly, gestured with his hand, and the massive bead flew toward him.

But before the bead reached his face, his expression changed.

For inside the massive ice bead, red flames had appeared!

Duolong Dazun's expression remained unchanged as he flicked out another bead.

Yet the red flames continued to surge uncontrollably.

"You're indeed strong. Give you time to grow, you might even catch up to me."

Duolong Dazun snorted softly and flicked out another bead.

Now, the power of four beads was stacked together.

Even Venerable Tianlan's expression turned exceedingly solemn.

For if she were imprisoned by these four beads, she felt her chance of escape was nearly zero!

But immediately, Venerable Tianlan's expression shifted again.

For she saw that the flames within the ice bead were still surging.

"Huh?"

Duolong Dazun let out a soft exclamation and flicked out another bead!

After launching this bead, his expression subtly changed again.

He snorted, no longer sparing his power, and launched every bead on his wrist one after another.

The power of nine beads was now stacked together!

"You've forced me to use the power of nine beads—but the stronger you are, the greater my harvest when I devour you."

Duolong Dazun snorted.

He gestured again, and the massive bead flew into his hand.

Inside the bead, the flames seemed frozen.

Duolong Dazun wore an expression of expected triumph, preparing to retrieve the bead and leave—when suddenly, his face turned drastically pale.

For he felt an extraordinarily powerful force of the Dao!

"Boom!"

Within the bead—larger than an ordinary asteroid before Lin Yan's transmigration—the flames erupted violently!

Lin Yan directly activated the Flame Dao!

Then, the Ice Pearl, its power overlaid with nine beads, was completely burned away by the flames in less than a second—not a trace remained!

The power of the Flame Dao shocked even Lin Yan himself!
