ferocious Ice Dragon King spread its wings from the clouds and swooped down suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This monster, with a wingspan of nearly twenty meters, was like a strategic bomber, diving toward Hozuki Suigetsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell is this thing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hozuki Suigetsu cursed immediately, his hands quickly forming seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique, which requires forty-four seals to release, was released by Hozuki Suigetsu with only a dozen or so seals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A slender-shaped water dragon leaped from the lake and bit toward the Ice Dragon King diving from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"BANG!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two collided suddenly in the air, and a dull impact sound was emitted when their huge bodies collided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But very quickly, the water dragon condensed from water was no match for the Ice Dragon King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just one contact, and it was smashed into scattered water splashes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hozuki Suigetsu cursed secretly; dealing with such large-scale attack ninjutsu was precisely not what he was good at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Hozuki Suigetsu directly took out his ultimate secret technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Water Release: Water Mirror Technique!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Hozuki Suigetsu slapped both hands on the lake surface, a huge water mirror appeared in front of Hozuki Suigetsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Dragon King did not stop in the slightest and crashed straight into the water mirror summoned by Hozuki Suigetsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Ice Dragon King got closer to the surface of the water mirror, a reflection of the Ice Dragon King also appeared in the mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the Ice Dragon King got close to the water mirror, preparing to smash it completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An identical Ice Dragon King flew out from the mirror!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"ROAR!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the \"pirated version\" in front of it, the Ice Dragon King seemed to have been provoked, and after letting out an angry roar toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It twisted and killed toward the pirated version in front of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pirated version that flew out from the water mirror seemed not to fear at all, not retreating in the slightest, and fought with the Ice Dragon King.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two behemoths were constantly biting and killing each other in the air, and for a time, transparent ice chips were constantly scattered from the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mid-air, above the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke frowned as he looked at the two identical Ice Dragon Kings below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Mizunuki Ryosuke wanted to summon the Ice Dragon King, he needed to meet certain conditions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How exactly did the opponent manage to do it?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ice Release: Heavenly Phenomenon Descent, Second Stage: Ice Dragon King Form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This move was undoubtedly a unique secret technique created by Mizunuki Ryosuke himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To activate this move, there were extremely harsh prerequisites.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hozuki Suigetsu could never have summoned the Ice Dragon King through normal channels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it were just a copy, it was absolutely impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There must be a problem here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the original story, Hozuki Suigetsu had also used this Water Mirror Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The effect shown was creating a mirror made of water, in which a person identical to the enemy would appear, capable of using the same ninjutsu as the opponent, and with the same power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke never expected that Hozuki Suigetsu's Water Mirror Technique would have the ability to copy his Ice Dragon King!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where exactly does the problem lie?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mizunuki Ryosuke thought with a frown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Mizunuki Ryosuke seemed to understand something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secret Technique: Extreme Cold Nerve!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the stimulation of the ice on his brain, Mizunuki Ryosuke directly got rid of all interference from hallucinations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure enough...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening his eyes again, the scene Mizunuki saw was already completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking again, the one fighting and entangled with the Ice Dragon King before his eyes was not an \"Ice Dragon King\" at all, but entirely just a \"Water Dragon King.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although it was completely identical to the Ice Dragon King in appearance, the inside of this fake was entirely condensed from water, a complete \"water-based product.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason it looked like it possessed the posture of the Ice Dragon King just now was because Mizunuki Ryosuke had been influenced by Hozuki Suigetsu's genjutsu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right, the core of this Water Mirror Technique lay in genjutsu!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the water mirror appeared, anyone who saw it had already been influenced by Hozuki Suigetsu's genjutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the effect of the genjutsu, the target would be misled into thinking they saw the same ninjutsu appear in the mirror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in reality, whether it was the person or the technique that appeared in the water mirror, it was just a form simulated by Hozuki Suigetsu using water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, after breaking the genjutsu and returning to a normal perspective, Mizunuki Ryosuke could clearly see that the \"water-based product\" was in a miserable state under the Ice Dragon King's attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large amount of the water-flow body was shattered by the Ice Dragon King's sharp teeth and tail with barbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But very quickly, under the operation of Hozuki Suigetsu below, the water dragon's body would be replenished by new water flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Repeating over and over, it created the illusion in the genjutsu effect that the two \"Ice Dragon Kings\" were evenly matched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way, Mizunuki Ryosuke already had a plan to break it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since indirect attacks would cause this water dragon to recover, then a one-hit kill would suffice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Mizunuki Ryosuke formed seals with one hand, deciding to unleash the strongest strike in the Ice Dragon King state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, Hozuki Suigetsu on the lake surface also finally realized the severity of the problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time stretched on and snowflakes continued to fall, the temperature in the air was constantly dropping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, even on the lake surface, a thin layer of ice had already condensed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not on the water surface, not underwater.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The opponent needs to manipulate this ice dragon to attack; it's absolutely impossible for him to be too far away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then there is only one place left.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Hozuki Suigetsu looked up suddenly toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the cover of the clouds, Hozuki Suigetsu's vision was severely obscured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wind Release: Typhoon Pass!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wind Release previously used to disperse the Hidden Mist Technique was once again unleashed by Hozuki Suigetsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the typhoon blew past, dispersing the clouds in the sky and revealing Mizunuki Ryosuke's figure behind the clouds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ryosuke was standing on a huge ice bird, floating in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under the illumination of the sunlight, Ryosuke at this moment seemed to be entirely placed within the sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up at the sky from the ground's perspective, Mizunuki Ryosuke at this moment was like a heavenly god!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mane of the sun constantly descending...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let the footprints left on the thin ice gradually disappear...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do not be afraid of being deceived...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this world was originally built on deception...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, such a sentence suddenly came to Hozuki Suigetsu's mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he saw the hand gesture Mizunuki Ryosuke held in front of his chest, his heart suddenly felt stifled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"ROAR!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud, high-pitched dragon roar resounded through the universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hozuki Suigetsu turned his eyes to look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Dragon King, which had still been entangled with the water dragon, suddenly spread its wings and flew high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the Ice Dragon King's massive body struck an extremely shocking posture in the air!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive amount of cold air began to condense on the Ice Dragon King's thick tail with barbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ice Release: Heavenly Phenomenon Descent, Second Stage: Ice Dragon King Form, Ice Dragon Spinning Tail!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ice Dragon King in the air swept its tail out toward the water dragon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment it made contact with the Ice Dragon King's tail, the water dragon's body first froze into a large ice lump under the effect of the cold air, and then directly exploded into ice chips all over the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's been seen through!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1324,"2026-06-17T04:30:30.011Z","2026-06-17T05:05:37.377Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash
