Chapter 110 Misfortunes never come singly

"You... deceived me and tortured me! In this cold and miserable world, no one wants me to have an easy life!!"

The talisman array was broken, and now no one could control the turbid tears that raged. Iceman Sethron fell into a frenzy. His gloomy sorrow seeped into the ice along with his wails, transforming the supposedly colorless ice into pitch-black crystals. The black crystals surged like a tide, almost instantly enveloping all the surrounding buildings. But the raging power would not cease; it trembled, groaned, and tumbled, forming clusters of icy branches that resembled nerve endings.

Countless branches of ice stretched upward, exploding in all directions, like icy flowers blooming in the air. Beneath the blossoming sky lay the groaning Iceman. No, at this moment, he could no longer be called a "man." His flesh had almost completely transformed into frozen water elementalism. His frantic spirit wandered through the ice, causing the moving mass of ice to collapse and explode, transforming into yet another cluster of flowers, ready to bloom.

When this ice flower blooms, the entire Jinye City will be submerged in ice!

“Wow…ah…”

Three hundred meters away, atop a delicate wisp of ice, Miss Qingye of Shura Island hid her dagger behind her, making a faintly guilty sound. A true Canxin, fearless of elemental forces, felt the chill beneath her feet as no more threatening than a toothpick. But most people in Jinye City weren't Canxin. Even a strong breeze, let alone a freezing cold, would cause them to catch a cold. If that Zhuolei continued his rampage...

Ice·Age.

Corpses were scattered all over the fields.

Mass killing incidents.

Elemental derivatives littered the land, and soon glowing corpses appeared, slayers roamed the land, and the largest Turbid Tear would likely transform into a Greedy Demon. Unknown years later, a passing hero would clear out the natural disasters and begin investigating the source. They would discover that everything had been salvageable, but at the critical moment, an idiot, a Heartless One, accidentally destroyed the sealing array with a single blow...

So, who was that idiot who harmed the entire city? It happened to be Miss Guang Shi Qing Ye who came to Jin Ye City during those few days...

“Nooooooooooooooooooo!!”

Miss Qingye let out a short, deep wail, her performance slightly different from that of an elite. She pointed frantically at Chu Hengkong, "Those tentacles over there! We'll sort out our grudge later. Now, let me clean up this mess! If this continues, Jinye City will be destroyed!"

Chu Hengkong lowered his gun and glanced at her indifferently: "How to do it?"

"Give me half a minute to deal with the turbid tears—"

"Wrong answer." The killer said coldly, "You died again."

The tip of the white spear pierced the ground, and almost instantly, Qing Ye felt a chill behind her. She was only aware of two indistinct figures approaching from behind her. In a "real" vision that neither of them could see, two shadow knights raised their shadow blades and viciously slashed at her shadow's head and center!

The knights' sneak attacks were precise and ruthless, but Chu Hengkong's spear was even faster. A streak of white light pierced through the ground and broke through the surface, transforming the two shadowy knights into a blur of gray mist. Qing Ye broke out in a cold sweat. She still didn't know the enemy's attack methods, but her intuition told her that she had escaped this time. She panicked: "Can you see that clearly?"

"I can't see clearly." Chu Hengkong put away his gun, "But never let the enemy stand behind you."

At this moment, a new gray fog emerged from the ground, thicker than the thinner one before, as thick as smoke. Knights emerged from the smoke one by one, and at the Knight Captain's command, they formed up to fight.

In the eyes of Chu Hengkong and Qingye, the entire city block was filled with gray fog. Strange creatures, whose forms could not be seen, surged in the fog, making Jinye City look like a ghostly den. They all raised their arms high, and the unknown power gathered together to form a giant weapon pointing straight to the sky.

The next moment, the giant shadow sword slashed towards the two of them!

Two figures dodged to the left and right. Chu Hengkong used his tentacles to pull out the unfortunate individual hiding in the house, while Qingye used the Shadow Line to rescue the remaining civilians. The rescued civilians resembled two bunches of flying grape heads, each emitting a different level of screams. Then, the giant sword cleaved through the bungalow, splitting the frozen earth. The shadow formed a crescent-shaped sword energy that cut through the thorns and shattered the frozen flowers, piercing the surface of Iceman Sethron.

The sword energy did not dissipate, but was instead "absorbed" into the frozen flower bud formed by Sethron, making the black ice crystals even thicker. When the ice crystals dimmed like shadows, thousands of black ice blades resembling sickles appeared amid the cries, slashing out with an overwhelming black frost.

Seeing this, Wu He quickly waved his hands, unleashing a standard set of palm techniques to protect himself. The Steel Body Talisman's strengthening effect hadn't yet worn off, and he had been confident he could remain unscathed. However, the more he defended, the stiffer his limbs became, and the darker his mood became, as if he, too, had been infiltrated by the enemy's emotions and sealed in ice.

This freezing energy was as insidious as the Turbid Tears, lacking in lethality but highly effective at penetrating. Wu He, sensing this, grew increasingly irritated. He repeatedly told himself not to let his emotions control him and not fall for the Supreme Path's insidious tactics. But when he saw Ji Huaisu unsheath his Shadow Blade, he couldn't resist. "Stop! Using Reverse Shadow to attack the Turbid Tears? Do you think I'm not full? Like cures like?!"

"It's a pity that my cooking skills are not good. No matter how good the ingredients are, they can't be made up."

Ji Huaisu's answer was lighthearted; she truly didn't feel much pressure. The giant light shield enveloped her with warmth, evaporating the iceman's cold air as soon as it approached. She circled the iceman with her shield, then suddenly lowered the shadow blade in her hand and smashed it hard against the ground.

"--ah!"

A cry of pain echoed from deep within the ice flower, and the icy air spurting in all directions suddenly stopped. Wu He was momentarily confused; even his vast knowledge didn't recognize the underlying technique. From Ji Huaisu's perspective, the battle was actually quite simple. She simply estimated the man's position within the ice armor and struck him hard with the hilt of her sword.

This wasn't something a typical Shadow Reversal could accomplish, but Ji Huaisu was too busy fighting the enemy to gloat. The previous blow from the Iceman's greatsword proved that simply striking with a Shadow Blade was useless; defeating the enemy required positive emotions. So she focused on strengthening her light shield, transforming it into a long-handled warhammer with a heavy top and a thick handle.

She stepped heavily on the shadow, swung the light hammer, and hit the ice ball ten times without saying a word!

The long-handled warhammer blazed brightly, a golden flame igniting from the hammerhead. The rudiments of pure fire brought the weapon to a high temperature, and the hammerhead's successive blows left ten charred marks on the ice shell. This intense heat could easily melt steel, and if fully unleashed, it could easily set a street ablaze, but it had little effect on the ice shell. A small portion of the ice crystals melted under the intense heat, and new ice formed in the blink of an eye.

Ji Huaisu's thinking was correct, but she wasn't truly pure fire, and her flame wasn't strong enough to melt the renowned ice armor. Wu He saw the problem. He glanced at the girl and reached into her arms.

"Don't force yourself with this much strength. Stand back, I'll take care of this guy."

He took out a new piece of talisman paper. This one was drawn with dried blood, the dark red soaking through the back of the paper. The moment the talisman appeared, Ji Huaisu felt a sense of oppression in his heart. An inexplicable aura emanated from the talisman, like a bloody mouth devouring flesh and blood, making Wu He look gloomy.

She subconsciously pointed the hammer at Wu He and said, "Stop! That's an evil thing!"

Wu He pointed two fingers of his left hand at the ground, and layers of blood-red flames broke through the ice, forming a formation that trapped Ji Huaisu. In the brief seconds they joined forces to fight the enemy, he had already distracted himself and prepared a plan against his "teammate." He rushed towards the ice shell, leaving behind only a sneer, his contempt evident enough to silence Ji Huaisu's words.

You want to stop me, can you do it?

Do you have the strength to hold back your tears?

If you don’t have the ability, just watch from the circle. It’s not the turn of a mere Niying to speak on the battlefield of Particle 3!

With the icy fog obscuring his vision and the battlefield further away from his position, Wu He decided to flex his muscles a bit. He dodged the ice flowers blocking his path with ease, his movements as swift as a spring outing, leaving the intervening ice crystals behind him. The talisman in his hand pulsed with life, pulsing with anticipation, just like his heartbeat.

"The talisman is opened, blood is offered as sacrifice!"

The Blood Sacrifice and Axe Talisman is one of the most precious talismans Wu He carries. This talisman acts like a living being, capable of devouring the flesh and blood of its enemies, transforming their abilities into its own.

Normally, this talisman rarely had the opportunity to be used. He wouldn't sacrifice his favored foe in vain, and the fragile talisman paper couldn't survive intense combat. However, this Idiot Turbid Tears was still sluggish due to his rampage, and the others around him had no ability to stop him. This was a godsend opportunity!

Wu He was excited by the power he was about to gain, grinning like a beast about to hunt. The distance closed, the ice flower was within reach, and the blood sacrifice talisman struck out with a strong wind...

At this moment, the frozen ground suddenly cracked open, and a white, smooth giant egg rose from the ground, standing between Wu He and the Iceman! Standing in front of the talisman!

Wu He's eyes were filled with excitement, a mixture of anticipation, ferocity, and a sense of "What the hell are you doing?" But the talisman had already been cast and could not be retrieved. The sinister blood talisman remained imprinted on the surface of the large egg, affixed to the jade-white shell!

With a crisp pop, the giant egg's shell cracked and shattered. Nearly 90% of the shell was engulfed in the talisman, transforming it into a square object resembling a brick. As the shell dissipated, amidst the lingering dust and smoke, the true form of the creature within the giant egg was revealed. Its outline was perfectly rounded, gentle, and without any sharp edges. It was actually...

Another dome that is four meters high!

[Don't be afraid, Miss Ji, General Fei is here to help! ]

A line of small words appeared on the (probably) butt of the giant egg. It turned half a circle and searched for a long time before it found Ji Huaisu with his mouth half open.

[Sorry for taking so long underground, I just got a little lost. I always repay a favor, so I'll help you in this fight! My eggshell is incredibly hard, even ordinary ice and snow can't hurt me. Just attack me from behind my proud body!]

"Ah." Ji Huaisu said, "Oh. Well, thank you."

The dome feels something is wrong: […Have I been able to help?]

Ji Huaisu silently pointed to the back, and the dome turned 75 degrees, revealing a face as black as coal due to the effect of the tempering talisman.

[Hey! Your face is as black as coal, are you the Black Whirlwind of Jinling?!]

Wu He gritted his teeth and punched Dadan: "You bastard! I'm going to kill you!"

【Why>`<]

Who is the most unlucky person in this game? This is really a difficult question to answer (serious)
