Upon seeing this, Luo Hua sensed the immense power of the ice sword. His eyes narrowed, and without hesitation, he stepped in front of Xia Qingwan, his spiritual energy surging, preparing to take the blow head-on.
Luo Hua took a step forward with one foot, leaning his body slightly forward, and a massive amount of spiritual energy surged from his arm and gathered on his fist.
At the same time, the Earth-Splitting Demon Ape behind him roared to the sky, its massive body twitched slightly, and it stretched out its pillar-like arm, slowly merging with Luo Hua's fist.
Instantly, Luo Hua's fist emitted a jet-black light, as dense as ink, exuding a chilling aura. The surrounding air seemed to hiss and whistle under the immense pressure, as if it couldn't withstand the terrifying force.
With a slam of his foot into the ground, a huge crater appeared, and Luo Hua was sent hurtling towards the ice sword like a cannonball.
clank
A crisp, ringing sound rang out as the jet-black fist and the ice sword collided fiercely, their shadowy light and biting cold clashing and interacting. In an instant, light and coldness filled the air.
After a brief stalemate, cracks appeared on the ice sword, which finally shattered with a "crack".
As the ice sword shattered, Luo Hua suddenly retreated, taking dozens of steps back before regaining his footing.
Drops of blood dripped from his hand onto the ground. His jet-black fist was riddled with crisscrossing wounds, from which blood continued to gush out.
Luo Hua's spiritual energy materialized in his hand, instantly stopping the bloodstains. He looked at Leng Ning Shuang, whose face had darkened slightly, with a fighting spirit and said:
"This is the late stage of the Soul Contract Realm? I don't think it's as bad as the beatings my dad usually gives me!"
Hearing his flippant words, Leng Ning Shuang couldn't help but laugh in exasperation, a hint of anger flashing in her icy eyes.
But soon, her eyes regained their composure, and she snorted coldly at Xia Qingwan, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground behind Luo Hua.
"Heh, you've got a good plan. You want to provoke me to buy her time, right? Then I'll show you the true strength of the late-stage Soul Contract Realm."
As soon as she finished speaking, Leng Ningshuang formed a series of mysterious hand seals, and a pure white phantom appeared behind her.
Ice Soul Snow Fox, ranked 285th on the list of all beasts!
After the phantom appeared, her hand gestures changed, and an extremely cold spiritual energy surged from her body. This spiritual energy flowed into the phantom, and a snow fox several dozen feet tall quietly appeared.
The Ice Soul Snow Fox stood quietly behind Leng Ning Shuang, its body slender and elegant, its form delicate yet full of power.
Then, Leng Ning Shuang flashed and instantly merged into the Ice Soul Snow Fox's body. In an instant, the Ice Soul Snow Fox's aura became even stronger, and its deep blue eyes gleamed with anthropomorphic light as it gazed at Luo Hua and the other person.
Its snow-white tail lashed out, sending a chill that swept towards Luo Hua. The terrifying temperature caused the surrounding air to freeze instantly, and the ground also frostled over with the chill.
Luo Hua's expression changed drastically, and the spiritual energy within his body began to circulate wildly, forming a pitch-black barrier in front of him in an attempt to resist the powerful cold current.
However, the power of this cold wave far exceeded his expectations. In just a moment, his barrier was frozen, and a bone-chilling cold swept over him, as if to freeze his very soul.
bang
As the sound of the barrier shattering rang out, Luo Hua's face turned deathly pale. Blood spurted from his mouth as he stared intently at the pure white Ice Soul Snow Fox.
He hadn't expected the fusion power of the late-stage Soul Contract Realm to be so terrifying. This was just a casual strike, yet it had already severely injured him instantly.
This filled Luo Hua with a sense of powerlessness. The difference between the middle and late stages of the Soul Contract Realm was only one word, but the gap was like an insurmountable chasm.
But he would never give up like this, he absolutely could not let her get any closer to Qingwan. He recalled his first meeting with Xia Qingwan, that fleeting glimpse by the lake, a memory still vividly etched in his mind.
Their relationship blossomed from initial conflict, and they spent some time traveling together in the Eastern Region. During this time, he became deeply attracted to this elegant woman...
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, forced himself to stand up, and his eyes burned with an indomitable fighting spirit.
The Earth-Splitting Demon Ape behind him emitted a deep, dark light. Its mountain-like body took a step forward and then covered Luo Hua's body, enveloping it in a layer of dark armor.
Upon seeing this, the Ice Soul Snow Fox's eyes sharpened, and countless wisps of icy spiritual energy gathered in its mouth. These wisps of energy quickly intertwined, forming a complex and mysterious rune.
The runes shimmered with a cold light, emanating an endless chill.
The Ice Soul Snow Fox stared intently at Luo Hua, its eyes revealing a hint of anthropomorphic disdain. Then, it suddenly bit down on the rune.
In an instant, the air around Luo Hua froze, and then an immense pressure surged from all directions. The ground began to tremble, and countless ice crystals erupted from the ground, quickly solidifying into sharp ice spikes.
splash
With a series of crisp sounds, countless ice spikes shot out in all directions like a rainstorm, landing on Luo Hua's dark armored stomach with biting cold and powerful impact.
Ding ding ding
Ice spikes struck Luo Hua's dark armor repeatedly, producing a crisp, sharp sound. This instantly placed him in the midst of a terrifying, frigid storm, the biting cold seeping through the armor and relentlessly eroding his body.
Fine cracks began to appear on the dark armor, as if it might shatter at any moment.
"Hmph, trying to break a rock with an egg, utterly overestimating your own strength!"
