Chapter 100: Truce
"Old thing, do you feel cold all over now!" The triumphant yet mocking voice of Thunder Lightning Spirit came from the armor, causing the already pale face of Wang Dian to turn shades of green and white.
Thunder Lightning Spirit's own strength would naturally pose no threat to this Wang Dian, but now he was in a combined form with Xiao Han.
In a sense, Thunder Lightning Spirit could mobilize the Battle Qi within Xiao Han to launch attacks, and at the same time, he had been granted permission by Xiao Han to use the Extreme Cold Crystal, which was the reason Wang Dian was being toyed with so miserably.
This was equivalent to taking a direct hit from a major move by a powerhouse of the same level; how could Wang Dian's old arms and legs withstand such a blow?
"Alright, stop playing, we don't have much time left now." Xiao Han stopped the provocative words that were about to spill from Thunder Lightning Spirit's mouth, feeling a massive headache.
Does this guy not know that the time limit for the secret technique is limited? Taking advantage of the current moment to see if he can finish off the opponent is the correct approach.
"Alright! You wait a moment!"
Thunder Lightning Spirit agreed, and in the next instant, an ice-blue long spear pulsing with lightning arcs condensed in Xiao Han's hand, while Xiao Han's originally jet-black hair gradually faded to white.
Only those familiar with Xiao Han knew that this was the sign of him going all out, belonging to Second Gear.
Sensing the change in Xiao Han's aura, Wang Dian's expression also turned gloomy; Xiao Han's strength had somewhat exceeded his expectations.
A flash of ruthlessness crossed his eyes, and Wang Dian's face rapidly flushed red before he spat out a mouthful of blood; he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Evil King Seal!"
As soon as the words fell, a large seal radiating dense Evil Qi appeared before Wang Dian. After this seal manifested, the many Demon Commanders in the distance all felt a sense of absolute suppression, and the Evil Qi within their bodies seemed unable to circulate smoothly.
But they had no thoughts of fear at all, only staring fixedly at that large seal—it represented the will of the King.
Wang Dian, who had successfully summoned the Evil King Seal, had his aura wither significantly, but his murky yet fanatical gaze indicated that his state was at its peak.
The facts were indeed so; after many years, Wang Dian had finally summoned this seal representing the Demon King once again, which was truly heart-stirring.
"Now let you all witness the power of the King." Looking at the fully armed Xiao Han opposite him, Wang Dian smiled coldly.
Xiao Han's expression did not change, and the aura on his body climbed continuously. When it reached its highest point, Xiao Han moved.
"Ice Peak Suppressing Mountain!"
The distance of several thousand zhang between the two was traversed in an instant. The next moment, a pressure as heavy as a mountain suddenly descended upon Wang Dian, and his originally slightly hunched figure bent even further.
Xiao Han thrust his spear out coldly, and the surrounding space collapsed directly; that cold, icy star seemed as if it would pierce the opponent through.
"Hiss—"
Mengka and the others gasped. Even though they were far from the battlefield, the aura and killing intent contained in Xiao Han's move still made them tremble uncontrollably, and they looked toward Wang Dian's position with worry.
But when their gazes fell upon the Evil King Seal, they were filled with absolute confidence.
The reputation of the Evil King Seal was not just empty talk; it was synonymous with power, followed by endless mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and piles of white bones.
The Evil King Seal is a World Seal that can only be summoned by a Demon King-level powerhouse. All the Evil Qi within this world can be freely utilized by the Evil King Seal, and its power to destroy mountains and break seas can only be resisted by powerhouses of the same level.
Even though Wang Dian was once a Demon King-level, and there were no other powerhouses of the same level here to contend with him, he had paid a huge price to summon the Evil King Seal.
But... all of this was worth it in his eyes.
Looking mockingly at Xiao Han's strike, which contained the power of heaven and earth, Wang Dian pointed a finger out lightly, hitting the seemingly peerless sharp cold light of the spear tip, and whispered: "Evil King Finger!"
"Woo woo woo—"
This strike seemed to shock the entire Sealed World. Everyone in this world felt a palpitation, and the powerhouses around the battlefield looked up in terror at the pitch-black abyss high in the sky.
However, the two sides who clashed separated upon contact, looking at each other with solemnity.
"Sure enough, fighting above one's level is not that easy now." Xiao Han looked at the Evil King Hall opposite him with a stern expression, a desire to retreat budding in his heart.
In fact, those who can cultivate to this point are all brilliant talents.
As for the attack techniques they have mastered, they are naturally extremely powerful, and it is not easy to determine a winner.
If he were in his original state, Xiao Han would naturally not worry about a prolonged battle. But now, his Eight-Star cultivation could only be maintained for at most a quarter of an hour; if he continued to fight, once the time was up, it would be difficult to run.
But Xiao Han had no intention of turning around and running, because in his perception, the aura of this Evil King Hall was also extremely strange.
After he summoned that so-called Evil King Seal just now, his combat power indeed increased greatly, and his Evil Qi was monstrous.
But Xiao Han had captured the opponent's unnatural rate of vitality loss.
Therefore, he still wanted to stay for a while longer to verify his guess; even if it didn't succeed, the remaining time would be enough for him to withdraw.
Feeling Xiao Han's strange gaze, Wang Dian became anxious, and the blood in his body churned. That move just now looked easy, but it left him with some hidden dangers.
Feeling his limited lifespan at this moment, Wang Dian's expression was ugly. Although he had luckily summoned the Evil King Seal just now, the price was his already not-so-abundant life.
If they continued to fight so slowly, even if he won, his outcome would likely not be very good.
Even though he had prepared very thoroughly, how could he, who was not in his prime state and even in his twilight years, guarantee the smooth execution of his plan?
Moreover, in the battle just now, the aura of the Seal Guardian had been collected almost enough; although it was not the person himself, it could barely be used.
Letting them retreat might be a good approach.
"Would you be willing to leave our world?" After deep thought, Wang Dian sent a sound transmission to Xiao Han; clearly, he was ready to yield.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Han raised an eyebrow and said with a half-smile. This old guy really couldn't hold on!
"I won't hide it from you, my body really can't hold on anymore."
"But..." the voice of the Evil King Hall suddenly turned fierce, "Your Excellency, I advise you, don't think that you can manipulate me just because of this.
If it weren't for my concerns, I would have taken your life for sure."
"Think about it carefully, retreat now and stop stepping into this world, and we can mind our own business. This... is good for both of us, isn't it?"
By the end of his words, there was even a hint of temptation.
Xiao Han's eyes narrowed instantly. Indeed, he was not confident in finishing off this Wang Dian. Rather than ending up defeated and fleeing in a sorry state, negotiating and retreating now was also a good choice.
"What are your plans?" Xiao Han sought Thunder Lightning Spirit's opinion at this time; after all, everything depended on the other party's wishes.
"Me?" Thunder Lightning Spirit fell silent. The situation was already very clear; the two of them really couldn't do anything to this Wang Dian.
In fact, the moment they entered the Sealed World, failure was already destined.
Retreating might be the only option, although this would make everything they had done go to waste, it was still much better than risking their lives.
"Let's go!" Thunder Lightning Spirit finally gave this reply with difficulty.
