The Ice Thunder Warhammer, carrying the extreme cold that freezes everything and the thunder that tears through space, crashes down like a pillar of divine retribution! Shadows instantly envelop Lin Feng and Su Wan on his back! In the ice-blue soul fire of the Ice Bear Guardian, which burns with lightning, Lin Feng's pale yet unusually calm face is reflected.
There's no escape! Essence energy is in disarray! A split second between life and death!
At the moment when the ice hammer, entangled with a destructive arc, was less than three feet above his head
In Lin Feng's eyes, the deep dantian, which had been disrupted by triggering the lightning to break the deadlock and was nearly exhausted from suppressing Su Wan, suddenly emitted an unprecedented light from the seed of the Hell Suppressing True Essence, which was a blend of dark gold and red gold! This light did not originate from the True Essence itself, but rather... the Order of the Armament Master!
Hum -!
The Bingzhu Order, which had just withstood the Thunderbolt Tribulation and was suspended in the sea of knowledge, seemed to be completely activated by this extreme threat of death! The word "Bing" on the token, which was fused with the red gold pattern, now split open into a thin crack that emitted a pale electric light! A violent, remnant Thunderbolt Tribulation power, which had been forcibly ingested and refined by the token but had not yet been fully tamed, mixed with the desolate and sinister aura of war inherent in the Bingzhu Order itself, like a flood breaking through a dam, suddenly fed back into Lin Feng's nearly collapsed Dantian!
This force is violent, unruly, and destructive! It instantly overwhelmed Lin Feng's already chaotic true essence balance, tearing apart his fragile meridians! The excruciating pain felt like billions of steel needles piercing his entire body!
However, amidst this torrent of destructive power, Lin Feng's will, which was on the verge of collapse, was tempered like steel, bursting forth with unprecedented resilience! The scriptures of the "Nine Abyss Suppressing Hell Sutra" transformed into solid golden chains in his heart, firmly binding this external force! The true intent of the Origin Furnace spun wildly in his dantian!
**Seal the prison, the void forge, and accept! **
Give me... Swallow!
Lin Feng roared silently in his heart! Instead of trying to control it, he opened the newly comprehended Origin Deity Furnace! Using his own Dantian as the furnace and the will of the "Nine Abyss Suppressing Prison Sutra" as the fire, he forcibly contained and refined the violent flood of lightning tribulation and weapon malice fed back by the weapon master's order!
Boom!
It was as if a cosmic explosion had occurred within the dantian! The newly born seed of the Hell Suppressing Essence energy trembled violently under the impact of the frenzied energy, almost shattering! But the power of the Origin was like the toughest furnace wall, firmly binding this force! The golden runic chains frantically twisted, strangled, and refined!
"Chichi chichi——!"!
The destructive power of the lightning tribulation was forcibly stripped away, transforming into a pure yet violent source of thunder! The sharpness of the military demon was refined and purified! Under the fusion of the power of the Origin of the Void, the two were actually forcibly absorbed and fused by the true essence seeds of dark gold and red gold!
A brand-new force, characterized by thunderous fury and destructive power, emerged like a ferocious beast breaking out of its cocoon, frantically breeding within the essence seed! The seed expanded once again, its radiance soaring, as dark gold, scarlet gold, and pale white streams of light intertwined and entwined crazily on its surface!
Peak of the Seventh Level of Qi Refinement! He even... touched the threshold of the Eighth Level!
The cost is that the meridians feel as if they have been plowed through, with a piercing pain in the heart!
But this newly emerged power, which contained the destructive power of lightning, gave him the means to fight back!
"Get out!" Lin Fengbao roared, his voice hoarse but carrying the might of a thunderbolt! Instead of retreating, he bravely faced the falling Ice Thunder Warhammer and suddenly raised his right arm, which was still trembling from the backlash he had just endured!
This time, he did not condense the power of lava, but instead mixed the newly born and violent source of thunder in his dantian with the power of the Origin, compressing it all into his fingertips!
**Zhenyu·Leiji Finger! **
Hmph!
A condensed to the extreme, finger-like beam of light, displaying a blend of pale and dark gold hues, resembled a thunderbolt tearing through the night sky, arriving later but striking first! It was not aimed at the head or heart of the Ice Bear Guardian, but rather - with unparalleled precision - it targeted the core node where the energy flowed, connecting the head and handle of the Ice Thunder Warhammer!
Attack the weak spot to break through the defense! Target the essential points to force a response!
Boom!!!
The dazzling lightning and the icy blue cold glow, along with the violent electric arc, collided fiercely! An indescribable loud noise instantly drowned the entire Ice Thunder Domain! A huge, three-colored energy-intertwined destruction lightball instantly expanded!
No stalemate!
Lin Feng's Thunderbolt Finger, which condenses the essence of the newborn thunder, embodies the annihilation characteristic of the Origin of the Void, and uses a point to break through a surface, possesses a destructive power far beyond imagination! It is like a red-hot steel needle piercing through solid ice!
Crack, crack!
The crunching sound of fragmentation rang out incessantly! The seemingly unbreakable head of the Ice Bear Guardian's Ice Thunder Warhammer was instantly covered with spider web-like cracks at the core where it came into contact with the Thunderbolt Finger Beam! The violent power of lightning surged in through the cracks, violently clashing and exploding with the Ice Thunder power inherent in the hammer itself!
Boom!
The head of the Ice Thunder Warhammer exploded under the unbelievable gaze of the Ice Bear Guardian's soul fire! Countless sharp ice crystals, wrapped in electric arcs, scattered like a rainstorm!
The Ice Bear Guardian let out a howl of pain and fury, its massive body swaying violently due to the backlash of the shattered hammer. The attack instantly collapsed! Its giant paws, entangled with electric arcs, were also affected by the exploding ice crystals and lightning power, leaving charred cracks!
Take advantage of its illness and claim its life!
Lin Feng's eyes flashed with a cold light as he endured the intense pain of his meridians tearing. Instead of retreating, he advanced forward! His left hand still tightly held Su Wan on his back, while his right hand was like a sword with its fingers interlocked. The three-colored interwoven essence seed in his dantian spun at an unprecedented speed!
**Suppression of Hell · Origin Destruction Furnace · Thunder Calling! **
This time, what he triggered was not the earth's fire and lava, but the thunderclouds that were still violently rolling in the sky above the Ice Thunder Desolate Region!
Hmph!
A strange fluctuation, mixed with the source of newborn thunder, the power of the void's devouring, and the aura of the Armament Master's order, suddenly surged up from Lin Feng's body! This fluctuation was like the most deadly provocation and attraction to the thundercloud!
Boom-boom-boom!!!
As if thoroughly enraged, and as if having found the perfect outlet for venting its anger, the thundercloud instantly erupted! More than half of the thickest, pale lightning bolts, which had been striking aimlessly, suddenly ceased. Like a shark pack sensing blood, they tore through the sky, carrying with them a destructive and terrifying power, and ruthlessly descended upon Lin Feng... No, upon the Ice Bear Guardian in front of Lin Feng, who had just been injured and was still struggling to maintain his breath!
**Use your body as bait to lure the heavenly thunder to punish the enemy! **
The Ice Bear Guardian had just stabilized itself from the backlash of the shattered Hammer when it looked up and saw the lightning waterfall pouring down like a doomsday punishment! For the first time, horror and despair were evident in its soul fire! Its huge body instinctively wanted to curl up for defense, condensing an ice armor and lightning shield!
But it's too late!
Boom——!!!!!!!
Dozens, even hundreds, of pale lightning dragons as thick as water buckets, struck the massive body of the Ice Bear Guardian with unparalleled precision and solidity!
The blinding lightning instantly engulfed the Ice Bear Guardian! The terrifying power of thunder raged wildly! The hard, black ice armor on its body was torn and vaporized like paper! The leaping electric arcs were forcibly assimilated and detonated by the even more violent power of the lightning tribulation! The ice-blue soul fire flickered crazily and dimmed in the lightning!
"Ooooh——!!!!"
The Ice Bear Guardian let out a mournful and twisted howl, a pain that stemmed from the tearing of its soul! Its massive body convulsed violently and disintegrated amidst the lightning bolts! Countless fragments of dark ice mixed with leaping arcs of electricity, exploding like fireworks in all directions!
Just count your breaths!
As the blinding lightning slowly dissipated, all that remained was a huge, charred pit emitting green smoke, and scattered at the bottom of the pit were several chunks of charred black ice, barely retaining the outline of a giant bear but covered in cracks, with their soul fires completely extinguished!
Summon the heavenly thunder and annihilate with one strike!
Lin Feng was panting heavily, his face as pale as paper, and fresh blood continuously oozing from the corner of his mouth. Continuously forcibly inducing, refining, and releasing power far beyond his own limits had imposed an unimaginable pressure on his meridians, causing his injuries to worsen. Yet, his eyes were burning with an unyielding flame, and the Su Wan on his back seemed to be trembling slightly due to the violent thunderous aura.
He raised his head and looked up at the top of the altar.
The shadow of the ice and thunder chain, which had been severely damaged by the lightning strike and impacted by the fallen aura of the Ice Bear Guardian, was now extremely dim, like a dying candle in the wind, emitting a weak and intermittent mournful cry. Large chunks of the ice-encrusted soul shadow on the surface of the chain shattered and dissipated, making the entire chain structure extremely unstable, as if it would disintegrate at any moment.
The best time to break the lock!
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Feng summoned his last bit of true essence and, carrying Su Wan on his back, took a step forward, appearing like a ghost at the top of the crumbling altar!
He stared at the whining Ice Thunder Chain, extended his right hand, and instead of condensing a powerful attack, he... gently pressed it onto the chain itself.
In the sea of knowledge, the commander's sword trembled violently, emitting a longing hum.
"In the name of the Warlord..." Lin Feng's hoarse voice echoed amidst the lingering thunder, carrying a peculiar rhythm and evoking the power of the Warlord's Order, "...Ashes to ashes, dust to dust... Dispelling... Disperse!"
**Suppression of Hell, Origin of Void, and Purification of Soul! **
Hmph!
A heavy, desolate, yet tinged with a hint of compassionate power from the Origin of the Void, mixed with the desolate will of the Armament Master Order to command weapons and soothe the souls of the dead, flowed through Lin Feng's palm like a gentle yet unstoppable stream, slowly infusing the ice-thunder chains that were on the verge of collapse.
There was no violent confrontation, no earth-shattering explosion.
There was only a soft "chirp" sound, akin to the melting of ice and snow.
The lingering grievances on the chains, burdened with the dual torments of ice coldness and electric shock, met their match in the combined power of the annihilation of the Origin and the soothing embrace of the Warlord, and were swiftly purified and dissolved. The twisted, frozen soul shadows, with their faces contorted in pain, gradually transformed into a dazed expression, ultimately dissolving into pure, ghostly blue specks, like fireflies breaking free from their bonds, silently dissipating beneath the violent thunderclouds.
The ice crystals and arc energy that comprised the chain's body, having lost the support of resentful will, began to disintegrate and dissipate, akin to unglued building blocks.
Crack... Crash
The third lock of the Ice Thunder Blood Sacrifice, amidst mournful cries, completely shattered and dissipated!
Boom!
The altar shook violently, and the faint blue light of the dark ice pillar flickered incessantly! The other eight chain shadows entangled around it emitted even more mournful and desperate cries! The entire Ice and Thunder Domain seemed to be enraged, and the thunderclouds rolled more violently. Countless lightning bolts struck down crazily, but they lost their precise targets, like headless flies!
Hmph!
The Armament Master Token flew out on its own for the third time and hung in midair. The word "Armament" shone with an unprecedented intensity, and the pale lightning patterns were crystal clear! A huge, pure, ice-blue flood, composed of extreme cold resentment and the origin of lightning, gushed out from the broken chains and was greedily devoured by the Armament Master Token! Beyond the dark gold and red gold on the token, a pale pattern of ice-blue lightning flashed, adding to the word "Armament"! The aura became more complex and more domineering, faintly exuding a hint of heavenly punishment-like majesty!
On the fragmented map, the third ice mine chain pattern had completely collapsed!
Pooh!
Lin Feng could no longer hold on, spewing out a mouthful of fresh blood mixed with ice crystal debris as he knelt down on the cold altar with one knee. The continuous high-intensity burst and lightning summoning, coupled with the mental consumption of the final purification chain, had added to his injuries. His meridians were like shattered porcelain, and the three-colored essence seed in his dantian was dim and covered with fine cracks. If it weren't for the deep foundation of the "Nine Abyss Suppressing Prison Sutra", it would have collapsed long ago.
At the moment when the chains broke and her resentment was purified, Su Wan, who was carried on his back, slightly relaxed her tightly locked brows and let out an almost inaudible sigh. The dark red rune on her collarbone slightly lit up, emitting a cool and refreshing aura, as if echoing the ice mine source that the Armament Master Order had devoured, or as if soothing the hidden injuries caused by the power of lightning in Lin Feng's body.
However, Lin Feng didn't even have time to take a moment to catch his breath.
Roar——!!! Howl——!!!
Several terrifying roars, filled with rage and murderous intent, echoed from the direction of the lava caves, piercing through the thick miasma and icy peaks like rolling thunder! The aura of the eight Lava Guardians was already imminently close! They had evidently been completely enraged by the continuous earth-shattering phenomena in the Ice Thunder Extreme Region and the fall of their companions. Ignoring the rules and constraints, they forcibly broke through the regional restrictions and pursued their prey!
Meanwhile, on the edge of the Ice Thunder Extreme Region, amidst the twisted black ice forest, several stealthy and greedy figures emerged quietly, taking advantage of the chaotic lightning and the shadows of collapsing ice peaks. The leader, holding a compass that shimmered with a ghostly light, was surprisingly the fellow disciple of the gray-robed cultivator who had been killed by Lin Feng earlier! The other person, with a sinister aura like a venomous snake, wore a jade pendant engraved with the character "Chen" hanging from his waist!
Su Chen's men! And other hyenas who came upon hearing the news!
With the Lava Guardian chasing behind and Su Chen's forces blocking the way on both sides, he was critically injured and in imminent danger, while Su Wan remained unconscious!
Desperation never stays away!
Lin Feng wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth. His eyes showed no despair, only an icy and resolute look akin to an abyss. He struggled to stand up, carrying the unconscious Su Wan more tightly on his back. His gaze swept over the next direction indicated by the Commander's Order - a dark area marked with symbols of twisted vines and poisonous fog.
The fourth lock of the blood sacrifice - the swamp of ten thousand poisons!
Instead of rushing towards the relatively weak Su Chen forces, he did not hesitate to head towards the deeper, more dangerous, and murkier poisonous fog, transforming into a shaky yet unwavering stream of light, speeding away!
"Want the shard? Want revenge?" An icy voice dissipated amidst the lingering echoes of thunder, "Then... follow me to hell!"
