Struck by these droplets, an enemy wouldn’t just be riddled with holes; their wounds would freeze. If struck by more than five droplets, the target would be frozen solid—this was the terror of the Scientific School mages: they never wasted spells like fireballs or water bullets; to them, such rigid techniques were garbage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wind Prince clasped his hands together; the droplets above sharpened into needles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Light, swift, silent, piercing blessing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wind Prince rapidly cast, layering four buffs onto the droplets in succession.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Frost Water.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He flung his arms outward; the droplets screamed toward Su Xiao, who was still mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dozens of droplets flew at high speed—yet utterly silent, the “silent” buff in effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the ultra-pure water droplets neared within seven meters, Su Xiao’s scalp prickled—a direct intuitive warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao didn’t look at the droplets; fifty-three counter-shields formed around him, not as flat plates but as energy blades; he seized all fifty-three and hurled them outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pah! Pah! Pah! Pah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click-click-click~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First came sharp cracks, then a vast wave of frost froze airborne moisture into ice crystals three meters to Su Xiao’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another energy shield appeared beneath Su Xiao’s feet; he stepped on it, still facing Tie Nan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath his helmet, Tie Nan’s face twisted; he had one MMP he absolutely had to scream: Why are you targeting me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao stood on the energy shield, crouching low, leg muscles tensing; his Zhan Long Shan was sheathed, wrapped in a flood of Qinggangying energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze was razor-sharp; one hand gripped the scabbard, the other the hilt, crouched in the exact posture for a drawing slash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at that moment, the Wind Prince raised his index finger, a cruel smile on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He curled his finger—two ultra-pure water droplets, deflected by the energy blades, suddenly changed trajectory; he could remotely control them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The droplets flew silently toward Su Xiao; he took a deep breath and ignored them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pala! Two droplets struck Su Xiao’s back; frost surged upward, faint shards of shattered energy shields visible within the cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This madman!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wind Prince’s jaw clenched; he realized his opponent was tougher than expected—those two droplets had first hit an energy shield, losing over 40% of their kinetic energy before striking Su Xiao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A muffled explosion echoed mid-air as translucent shards of energy shield scattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A straight blue streak slashed from mid-air toward the ground, aimed directly at Tie Nan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tie Nan leapt backward; the Red Scorpion, who had just arrived to support him, sidestepped instantly—her urge to assist had vanished the moment she saw the blue blade descend; her own life mattered more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blue blade grazed Tie Nan’s side; Su Xiao appeared—his technique, “Breakthrough,” his self-developed strongest move, without exception, his most powerful attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to the immense downward momentum of “Breakthrough,” Su Xiao’s body surged forward uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao’s feet hit the ground, sending yellow sand spraying over seven to eight meters high; his feet plowed through the sand, carrying him over ten meters forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao exhaled a breath of frost, glancing sideways at the Wind Prince—perhaps the second target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drip. Drip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood dripped onto the sand; a horizontal gash split Tie Nan’s entire torso, his chest and abdomen split open, organs clearly visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thought you were dead?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tie Nan glared darkly at Su Xiao—but Su Xiao ignored him entirely, shifting his grip on Zhan Long Shan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, countless slashes erupted inside Tie Nan; he vomited a gout of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Puch! Puch!…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dense barrage of slashes appeared; in an instant, Tie Nan and his armor were shredded to pieces, blood- and flesh-stained armor fragments falling to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An explosion swept across half the sandy arena—Tie Nan’s arsenal detonated; Su Xiao was blown backward by the shockwave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“First one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao leapt backward to maintain balance; sand sprayed into his face. He had just used the immensely draining “Breakthrough” and needed moments to recover—his hands and legs were already numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logically, after Su Xiao instantly killed Tie Nan, the other three should have hesitated—but these three were no amateurs; they immediately deduced Su Xiao’s weakened state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rush of wind came from behind; the Red Scorpion had appeared behind Su Xiao, legs spread, fists drawn to her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Punch Rush.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her punch wasn’t fast, its trajectory wasn’t cunning, its power wasn’t overwhelming—but it felt utterly unavoidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao was forced to halt his backward leap; the Red Scorpion blocked his retreat path. He twisted his body sideways—his Direct Perception had already predicted her punch’s trajectory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her fist grazed Su Xiao’s collar—she froze. In her expectation, it would have struck his shoulder and knocked him off balance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Continuous Rush.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Red Scorpion shifted from her calm style to a furious barrage of punches, hammering Su Xiao like a storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bam! Bam! Bam!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Xiao took three direct hits—not because he couldn’t dodge, but because his numb legs prevented him from moving.\u003C\u002Fp>",1171,"2026-06-19T23:49:56.324Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2dedc376045461200ab9fe5cb09a310d38f392f951a6a74d38d89ff1c9c34cc1","paradise-of-reincarnation-chapter-967","paradise-of-reincarnation-chapter-965",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fparadise-of-reincarnation-cover.jpg"]
