Emperor Saber, Sovereign Sword
After Chu Xiaoran summoned her Aspect Totem, her aura was completely different. A pure chill now covered her entire body.
Seeing Chu Xiaoran in this state, the audience became secretly horrified. It was as if the person on stage was a snow lotus, growing on an icy divine mountain. The Glacier Snow Wolf behind her boosted this strong visual impact!
Chu Xiaoran’s blade faced the ground. What was once a soft ‘like water’ sword was now suddenly turning hard and sharp. This cold blade then stabbed into the purple tungsten stage.
Phew~
A cold wind blew out from the stage! Frost Qi began to emanate, with Chu Xiaoran’s sword as its center.
Ka-cha! Ka-cha!
Column after column of ice pillars formed on the stage’s platform. The entire Divine Wilderness Stage had now turned into a forest of ice, with Chu Xiaoran at the center.
Yi Yun stood inside the the ice forest, facing Chu Xiaoran’s sword, experiencing the bone-chilling coldness around him.
Seeing this scene, the audience became shocked. These ice pillars were formed from Chu Xiaoran’s Yuan Qi. A Purple Blood realm warrior could actually form a ice forest using her body’s Yuan Qi? How much Yuan Qi was that!?
A Purple Blood warrior’s body had limited amount of Yuan Qi. If typical warriors were to do the same as Chu Xiaoran, they would be drained of all their body’s Yuan Qi, making them unable to battle anymore.
“Oh… This ice forest…”
Yi Yun looked around and frowned slightly. He could feel that each ice column had a spiritual connection with Chu Xiaoran.
Interfacing with his Purple Crystal, he opened his energy vision. Now, Yi Yun could see that each ice column contained extremely pure energy. And this energy had thousands of connections with Chu Xiaoran.
The ice column’s energies came from Chu Xiaoran’s body, but at the same time, these ice columns also gathered Yuan Qi from the surroundings to supply Chu Xiaoran.
“This is an array technique!”Yi Yun suddenly realized.
The ice forest may seem to consume a great portion of Chu Xiaoran’s energy, but once it was set up, Chu Xiaoran would be supplied with energy from this array technique, while fighting within the ice forest’s boundary. As a result, she would have an absolute advantage in it.
“Is this how the ice laws are used…?”
Yi Yun knew that by controlling ice elemental energy, one could only use Frost Qi to attack enemies. It could definitely not be used to create such an exquisite array setup with magical effects.
Laws are the fundamental principles behind energy. By grasping the understanding of laws, one would be able to wield their methods for using energy.
The higher the realm of laws, then the application of energy would be closer to perfection!
At this moment, Chu Xiaoran attacked!
When she stabbed out, if was as if all the Frost Qi on the stage was drawn out. The energy within the ice column array was driven by Chu Xiaoran’s attack, now sweeping towards Yi Yun!
“Peak Frost Lotus!”
Chu Xiaoran twisted her blade and the surge of Frost Qi formed a huge ice lotus in the air which shot towards Yi Yun.
This unrestrained sword Qi did not break through the ice columns when it entered the ice column inside the array, instead it moved through it unimpeded.
Just from this move alone, one could see the level Chu Xiaoran had attained in her ice laws.
Facing this attack, Yi Yun charged forward with pure Yang Yuan Qi injected into the Thousand Army Saber. With a slash of his blade, the saber Qi laws appeared once again
“Cha!”
The saber beam shot into the sky, and Yi Yun’s saber Qi had a fierce collision with Chu Xiaoran’s sword Qi.
The two aimed to better the other. Boom!
When the aftershock of the immense explosion approached, both Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran were pushed back. When Yi Yun was retreating, his eyes suddenly focused and he abruptly lifted his head. Just above him, the huge Glacier Snow Wolf was attacking him!
Its white killer fangs flashed. Although it was a phantom image formed from the Power of Desolates, it could still fight like a real beast!
The Glacier Snow Wolf attacked downwards with both claws!
Its seven meters long body possessed claws that were like a row of sharp swords. These swords slashed at him, right at Yi Yun’s throat!
At this moment, Yi Yun had just finished his move, and having used up his energy, he could not muster any more at this time. Facing the Glacier Snow Wolf’s attack, Yi Yun forcefully twisted his body in midair.
Minute Subtlety!
Although Yi Yun could not fly, he could use his Minute Subtlety movement technique to be in one with his surroundings. He did not need to touch anything to control his movements!
His body moved to the side and at the same time, he slashed out with his saber!
“Dang!”
