Xiao Yuyang proudly took out his magical artifact, a jade object carved in the shape of a plum blossom, its lustrous texture radiating a cold luster.
The moment the plum blossom appeared, the surrounding air was instantly swept by an extremely cold and fierce wind. The wind seemed to blow from the deepest hell, howling eerily. Every gust of wind felt like countless ice needles piercing the skin, making one feel the cold wind penetrating to the bone, as if the blood in one's whole body had been frozen, as if one had been trapped in an ice cellar that had never melted in an instant.
"You have to hand over this bamboo marriage certificate today, whether you like it or not. Don't try anything funny with me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw countless gleaming ice needles rapidly condense on each petal of the plum blossom. The tips of these needles were incredibly sharp, radiating a bone-chilling cold that froze the surrounding air, forming a thin layer of white mist.
The members of the Dayan Sect stood tall and proud, their faces radiating an unusual arrogance as they swept their gazes over the others present. Their eyes were filled with disdain and contempt; in their eyes, these people were nothing more than a bunch of country bumpkins who had never seen the world, utterly incomparable to their Dayan Sect.
"Hmph!" One of the disciples of the Dayan Sect sneered and said loudly, "This is our Dayan Sect's Cold Plum Jade. You people are fortunate enough to see it today, which is quite an eye-opener. With your abilities, you probably haven't even heard of such a powerful magic weapon!" His words were full of pride and boasting. "This was refined by our sect leader over a hundred years, and the materials used are extremely rare."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuyang became even more smug. "Today, I'm going to show you the power of my Cold Plum Jade!"
Xiao Yuyang originally thought that as long as he revealed this Cold Plum Jade, the people of Lingxiao Sect would be greatly surprised, especially Bai Ying's master, who would definitely come to stop him to protect Bai Ying.
Unexpectedly, not only the people from the Lingxiao Sect, but even Bai Ying herself showed no emotion on her face. It was as if she had taken out an ordinary magic artifact, not the Cold Plum Jade.
Xiao Yuyang sneered, looking at Bai Ying as if she were an idiot.
The people of the Dayan Sect couldn't help but whisper among themselves: "Are the people of the Lingxiao Sect stupid? Why aren't they afraid at all?"
"They probably don't know the power of our Great Yan Sect's most powerful magic weapon. Once Junior Sister Xiao uses that magic weapon, they'll know how powerful it is! They'll definitely regret underestimating us!"
The icy plum blossoms shot out one after another towards Bai Ying's location, yet Bai Ying remained calm and composed.
There was not a trace of fear on her face; instead, she drew her sword from its sheath.
Xiao Yuyang's hands moved rapidly, forming hand seals at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, with subtle lights flashing and intertwining in his palms. In an instant, the ice needles that had been floating in the air, radiating a chilling aura, seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, shooting towards Bai Ying's hand like arrows released from a bow.
The sharp ice needles pierced the air with a rustling sound, and wherever they passed, the water vapor in the air instantly condensed into tiny ice crystals, which drifted down, making the scene even more thrilling and fierce.
"Bai Ying, this bamboo marriage certificate is mine!" Xiao Yuyang's voice was filled with unwavering determination. She leaped into the air, her robes fluttering, like a hawk swooping down on its prey, and flew towards Bai Ying, her hand reaching out to grab the bamboo scroll from Bai Ying's grasp.
Unexpectedly, Bai Ying directly used the sword in her hand to slash at Hanmei Youyu.
Xiao Yuyang had never seen such a fool. That was a top-grade magic weapon that her father had spent over a hundred years refining with top-grade spirit jade. How could it be broken by such an ordinary sword?
But in the next instant, the sword in Bai Ying's hand suddenly began to move. The way the sword danced was extremely peculiar and strangely unpredictable, completely unlike the conventional swordsmanship. Each swing of the sword seemed to carry a rhythm that transcended nature, and the sword shadows swept through the air, leaving behind faint streaks of light and shadow, like shooting stars that flashed and disappeared in the night sky.
It was just a few simple moves, yet these seemingly ordinary sword techniques contained a chilling energy. That energy surged and spread outwards in all directions.
Such powerful energy could not only sever the precious Cold Plum Jade in Xiao Yuyang's hands, but it also seemed capable of tearing through the void.
This is the upgraded version of the Spirit Rhinoceros Void-Piercing Slash!
Previously, when Bai Ying was trapped by a large array created by so many Nascent Soul stage cultivators, this move was able to break even that array, let alone just sever a top-grade magic weapon.
"So what if it took a hundred years to refine? It just means the person who refined it wasn't skilled enough!"
An exceptionally terrifying sword aura slashed directly towards the Cold Plum Jade.
"boom!"
In an instant, a dazzling light flashed, as if a bolt from the blue had struck the earth. The sharp sword energy released by Bai Ying's sword, with overwhelming force, slammed heavily onto Hanmei Youyu with a "crack".
At that moment, time seemed to freeze. The ice needles that had been attached to the Cold Plum Jade, gleaming with a cold light and extremely sharp, did not even have time to show any resistance under the impact of this powerful sword energy. In an instant, they all turned into nothingness and dissipated into the air, as if they had never existed.
Even the Cold Plum Jade, treasured by the Great Yan Sect and possessing mysterious power, couldn't withstand this terrifying force. With a crisp yet despairing "crack," the Cold Plum Jade shattered in two. Its once cold, luminous surface was now covered in shocking cracks, like a broken spiderweb. Its former mystery and majesty were gone, leaving only deathly silence and ruin!
"ah!"
Xiao Yuyang screamed in agony, collapsing to the ground in a pathetic state. The fragments of the Cold Plum Jade fell directly onto her, turning into useless stones!
