Howl…

The folding ice fan was vibrating slightly in the sky. The thick pungent smell of blood seemed to linger in the air.

The temperature dropped increasingly. Within such a cold atmosphere, it felt like there was a dark and icy force that could almost pierce into one’s bones, eroding even one’s flesh and blood.

All the top powers on the altar witnessed the astonishing event. Their expressions changed significantly. Even the rest of the top powers from the Phoenix Clan, like Bai Bin and Chi Hong Wu, had mixed expressions on their faces.

“Bai Ming is getting crazy!” Chi Hong Wu gritted her teeth, an angry look on her face. “Doesn’t he know that it would cause huge damage to the Quasi-Divine Artifact if he uses this move?!”

Phoenix Blood Worshipping Spirit is a lose-lose method, where the Quasi-Divine Artifact would up its power to an extreme level by depleting itself. Hence, it would be damaged after using it. To win the battle, Bai Ming actually had resorted to this method just now.

Bai Bin, who was standing at the side, looked stiff. He swallowed his saliva, while looking at the bloody spiritual folding fan in the sky. He had not expected that Mu Chen would force Bai Ming to take such a bold action.

“Although the Quasi-Divine Artifact is precious, if he can obtain the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird, everything will be worth it!” Bai Bin tried to explain on behalf of Bai Ming, “And, Brother Bai Ming will win. He is one of the supreme talents in the Ice Phoenix Clan. Our clan would not look good if he lost to Mu Chen.”

“You!” Chi Hong Wu was angry, but she calmed down eventually. At this moment, it was useless for her to say anything. Bai Ming’s desire to win was too strong. Also, he was too prideful. He could not accept the fact that he could not win against Mu Chen. So, in order to try to win, he would do whatever it takes.

But, this would put Mu Chen in danger as, after Bai Ming activated such an offense, the Ice Phoenix Spiritual Fan’s power would be shockingly strong. Although it was not up to the level of a real sacred object, it was still much formidable than other Quasi-Divine Artifacts. Facing such an exploding combat strength, Mu Chen would not have any chance of winning against Bai Ming, despite his also possessing a Quasi-Divine Artifact.

“Heh, Bai Ming has been forced to this extent…” Not only was Chi Hong Wu surprised by Bai Ming’s move, but Kong Ling and the remaining three people in the other two battlefields were also shocked by it.

They were the top powers, who were at the same level as Bai Ming. As such, they could understand the power that accompanied the move he had just made. If Bai Ming were to display such a skill to them, they would also need to evade this blow as fast as possible. If they were not fast enough, they would likewise suffer from such a huge blow.

But now, this move was being used on a Grade Seven Sovereign human being. Had they witnessed this in the past, they probably would have just laughed it off and cracked a joke about it.

But, the event that was now happening before them was no laughing matter. They watched it with solemn faces, as they knew they would not win Mu Chen if they were the ones in the battle. This mere Grade Seven Sovereign human being was not as simple as they had first imagined…

Mu Chen stood on top of the Great Solar Undying Body in the sky. He was also looking solemnly at the bloody ice folding fan, which was currently suspended in front of Bai Ming. He could sense the extreme danger emitting from it.

Mu Chen flickered his eyes, but did not back off. He knew that retreat was not an option, for as soon as he backed off, it would mean him giving up the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird.

The Exterminating Eye opened once again in between his brows. A dark light flickered and a pitch-black light beamed out, shooting across the sky and heading towards Bai Ming’s head.

As he was standing under the bloody ice fan, a mocking curve seemed to be drawing itself onto Bai Ming’s pale face. He lifted his head and stared at the incoming black light beam.

Weng!

When the black light beam got to within ten feet of him, a scarlet cold current swept out suddenly in mid-air and the black light beam froze instantly into an ice rod. A loud sound was heard as the rod exploded into pieces.

Mu Chen slightly narrowed his eyes.

The power of the Ice Phoenix Spiritual Fan has grown to such a mighty level!

“I’ve underestimated you this time. I never thought that you could force me to such an extent…” Bai Ming lifted his head, then looked at Mu Chen without any emotion. “But since we have come to this stage, there is no point in regretting anything now. To show my ‘appreciation,’ I will freeze and keep your dead body to serve as a future reminder to myself.”

Bai Ming’s eyes still looked red. He stared at Mu Chen, his lips drawn. His pale face was even more hideous than before.

He raised his hand after he finished speaking. The bloody fan dropped into his hand slowly. He held the fan without any emotions on his face, then waved the fan at Mu Chen from a distance.

Weng!

The bloody cold current swept out like a windstorm, its speed exceptionally fast. Countless ice blades were forming in the current, each blade the color of blood. Every blade could tear a top power at the Peak of Grade Seven Sovereign apart easily. Its offense was truly daunting.

The bloody windstorm came closer to Mu Chen, which caused a slight change in his expression. Immediately, he reacted to it with alarm. He flashed a thought in his mind, and bright golden lights exploded like a golden light shield from the Great Solar Undying Body.

Bang! Bang!

Countless bloody blades charged forth from the cold current, bashing hard onto the Great Solar Undying Body. Confronted with such a violent attack, the golden shield in front of the body exploded.

“Slay it!” Bai Ming smiled and said hideously, while clenching his hand.

The swarming bloody cold current suddenly gathered and formed into a long bloody blade that was a thousand-feet long. The blade swung in a downwards motion, cracking the space and slaying the Great Solar Undying Body.

Before the blade was lowered, Mu Chen felt the extreme danger that was emanating from it. With a flicker in his eyes, he formed a seal with one hand. The real phoenix spirit formed a pair of phoenix wings on his back, which began to flap hard. At that same moment, a figure darted back from the top of the Great Solar Undying Body.

The bloody ice blade then split the undying body into two with just one stroke. The daunting sharpness of the blade caused Mu Chen’s eyelids to twitch.

“You’re as slippery as an eel.” Bai Ming smiled with his mouth wide open, while looking at the decisive Mu Chen, who had now backed off.

He fixed his gaze on the pair of phoenix wings behind Mu Chen. Bai Ming could sense the real phoenix aura exuding from it, which ignited the fire in his own eyes.

“You do have a treasure with the real phoenix aura from our clan. Heh, this seems like another reason for me to kill you.” Bai Ming laughed out loud. He then stomped his feet, and a pair of icy blue phoenix wings spread out from his back.

With a swift movement, he appeared in front of Mu Chen. Protruding red runes, like blood veins, appeared on the folding fan in his hand. He then swung his fan.

Boom!

Once again, the bloody cold current stormed out like a huge dragon, sweeping towards Mu Chen. As Mu Chen had experienced the power of this bloody ice fan before, he dared not underestimate it now.

His body exploded into golden lights, while he backed off quickly. He then circulated the Dragon-Phoenix Body to the maximum in an attempt to shield his body.

Bang!

The bloody cold current came howling and struck Mu Chen on his body. Mu Chen’s surrounding golden light dulled instantly.

His body was thrown back, as if he was knocked out by a heavy blow. Eventually, he landed and smashed right in the square, creating a hundred-feet deep pit-hole on the hard ground.

The rest of the top powers on the altar were watching anxiously. Mu Chen was on a losing streak, and it looked like he could not put a stop to Bai Ming!

Nine Nether and Ink Ring had pale faces. Watching the battle was like being on and up-and-down roller-coaster ride. Previously, Mu Chen had the upper hand, but now, his situation has changed.

Nine Nether gritted her teeth and her hands were clenched tightly. Worry filled her eyes. She even hoped that Mu Chen could back off from the battle with Bai Ming.

After all, if it meant his safety, she could give up on the Inherited Blood Essence of the Undying Bird. But, towards the end, she did not utter a word, as she knew that Mu Chen would not give up, given his character.

The current Mu Chen was no longer the young man that she had once known in the Northern Spiritual Realm. The rounds of life and death that he had been through had trained him into a warrior with high endurance and mighty strength.

Currently, Mu Chen was lying pitifully in the pit-hole at the square. Blood stains, made by the ice blades, were all over his body.

Upon seeing this, the rest of the top powers on the altar shook their head with pity. Judging from the looks of it, the outcome was clear. Mu Chen had been defeated.

Bai Ming flapped his pair of icy blue wings in the sky. He looked at Mu Chen from above. The bloody ice fan was fanning itself slowly, sending forth a daunting fluctuation.

He had a hideous and mocking smile on his face, then he laughed. “Have you ever thought that you would be in such a pitiful state? Like a beaten dog?” he demanded.

Mu Chen laid motionlessly in the pit-hole. His eyes were closed, as if he was meditating.

Bai Ming shook his head with disinterest, then said coldly, “Since you have given up on resisting, then go to hell!”

After he finished saying this, the bloody spiritual fan shot out from his hand and fanned non-stop. Streams of bloody cold currents swept out, forming a bloody hurricane windstorm.

The windstorm rose like a dragon, tearing the land apart with destructive force. Then, it headed straight at Mu Chen, who was lying below.

Apparently, Bai Ming had decided to end this battle! The top powers shook their heads with pity.

Nine Nether exploded her spiritual energy on the altar. Her eyes were filled with killing intent. Obviously, she could not stand around and not try to help.

Just as everyone thought that Mu Chen was preparing for his death, the latter opened his eyes again suddenly, just when the bloody cold current hurricane came whistling down. The moment he opened his eyes, the aura around him changed significantly.

The look of determination in his eyes was formidable…
