686: Chapter 686 The Ice Prison Descends!!

Snowflakes and ice crystals fell onto his body, carving out tiny wounds.

Those wounds were very small, almost invisible, but they were densely packed and covered his entire body.

Every snowflake was a blade, and every ice crystal was a sword; they were omnipresent, attacking at every moment.

However, with Qin Yan's immense physical constitution, these minor injuries were restored to their original state in an instant.

The recovery power of the Indestructible Blood Demon Body was showcased to the fullest at this moment; as soon as a wound appeared, it healed instantly.

However, the cold and the cutting were only the most superficial effects of the Domain.

One of the most core and lethal effects of the Domain was the suppression of blood qi.

Qin Yan could clearly feel that his internal blood qi had become sluggish and heavy under the shroud of this Ice-Snow Domain, as if a roaring river had been covered by a thick layer of ice, no longer able to flow freely.

His 1,654,000 cal of base blood qi was actually suppressed by nearly fifteen percent.

"Such a formidable Supreme-grade Spear Intent!"

Qin Yan sighed inwardly once more.

One important function of a Supreme-grade intent is that it can greatly enhance the power of ordinary Domains and can also grant immunity to the suppression of ordinary Domains.

For example, when a Prodigy with a Supreme-grade intent faces an ordinary Grandmaster expert, the Grandmaster's Domain suppression is ineffective against them.

This is because a Supreme-grade intent has already surpassed the Domain power that an ordinary Grandmaster can master in terms of level.

This has led to a universally recognized fact—to challenge a Grandmaster expert above one's level, a Supreme-grade intent is one of the essential conditions.

Seeing Qin Yan's blood qi fully suppressed by his Ice-Snow Domain, a rare glint of satisfaction flashed in Xiao Han's ice-blue eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled into a cold arc.

He gave Qin Yan no chance to catch his breath; his right hand tightened around the Ice Prison long spear as the extreme cold True Qi around his body erupted.

Silvery-white cold air surged from his body, coiling around the Ice Prison long spear and shrouding the entire long spear in frost.

The thousand patterns on the spear shaft lit up simultaneously, their silvery-white light dazzling; at the spear tip, ice crystals condensed, and a cold glint flickered.

He took a step!

Xiao Han's figure transformed into a silvery-white streak of light, moving at an astonishing speed.

He left a shallow footprint on the floor of the Fighting Arena, and a trail of frost remained in the air as he charged toward Qin Yan!

The distance of dozens of zhang was covered in the blink of an eye beneath his feet.

The Ice Prison long spear thrust out, its tip pointing straight at Qin Yan's heart.

This thrust had no fancy variations or complex techniques; it was the simplest, most direct stab.

But precisely because it was simple, it was all the more lethal.

All the power was concentrated on that single point at the spear tip—fast, accurate, and ruthless, leaving the opponent no room to dodge.

Watching the attacking long spear, Qin Yan's expression remained unchanged.

A weakening skill? Who doesn't have one?

Not only did he have one, he could weaken the opponent even more than they could him!

Facing the incoming long spear, Qin Yan blocked with his long spear, and the familiar Five Elements Radiance bloomed once again upon the shaft!

Gold, green, blue, red, and yellow—the five-colored lights lit up simultaneously, intertwining on the moyuan spirit weapon's shaft to form a magnificent Five Elements barrier.

Ice Prison and the moyuan spirit weapon immediately collided!

"Clang—!!!"

A crisp sound of clashing metal rang out, and sparks flew in all directions!

The silvery-white icy glimmer and the five-colored light intertwined.

The cold air attempted to freeze the Five Elements Radiance, while the Five Elements Radiance used the power of mutual generation and overcoming of the Five Elements to easily dissolve the cold.

Xiao Han's brow furrowed slightly.

He could feel that the attack power of his strike was weakened by a full thirty percent the moment it hit that five-colored barrier!

That weakening force wasn't a defense or a reflection; it directly caused a portion of his attack to vanish—as if someone had sapped thirty percent of his strength before his fist could even reach the target.

This feeling made him very uncomfortable.

Xiao Han quickly estimated his explosive power in his mind.

His own base blood qi had reached 1.55 million cal.

This figure was already at the top level among Rank 6 Peak Martial Artists.

Ice Prison Spear Intent—Supreme-grade, a fivefold increase.

Ice Prison spirit weapon—3,900 patterns, a 3.3-fold increase.

With a cumulative increase of 8.3 times, his Blood Burst reached 12.86 million cal!

This figure was enough for him to look down on his peers and easily crush 99.999% of Rank 6 Peak opponents.

Combined with the suppression of the Ice-Snow Domain, an ordinary Rank 6 Peak Martial Artist wouldn't even last three moves against him.

However, after being weakened by the opponent like this, his Blood Burst was left with only 9 million cal.

9 million cal.

While Qin Yan's blood qi was suppressed by fifteen percent by his Ice-Snow Domain and his explosive power had decreased, Xiao Han could feel that the opponent's current Blood Burst was still around 10 million cal.

9 million versus 10 million.

His 9-million-cal burst couldn't break the opponent's defense at all!

"I don't believe I can't break through this turtle shell of yours!"

Xiao Han shouted lowly.

The silvery-white Ice Prison long spear was like a living thing in his hand; the tip hummed and the cold light flickered as it thrust toward Qin Yan again and again.

Every thrust carried the biting chill of the Ice Prison Spear Intent, and every thrust was enough to freeze an ordinary Rank 6 Peak Martial Artist on the spot.

Diluo Valley naturally had information on Qin Yan.

Before coming to the Taixuan Holy Land, Diluo Valley had conducted a detailed investigation into the eight Heavenly Ladder Clearers of the East Courtyard—who cultivated which Cultivation Technique, who had comprehended what level of intent, and who possessed what special means—they were clear on all this information.

Among them, Qin Yan's Five Elements Block skill was highlighted in particular.

The ability to weaken any attack's power by thirty percent had caused quite a stir among the Disciples of Diluo Valley at the time.

And when lineage master Pulse Master Lu Chenyuan analyzed Qin Yan's data, he also gave his own judgment—Grandmaster power could break through the opponent's Five Elements power.

Grandmaster power was a higher level of power generated after condensing a golden body and fusing with a martial Dao Domain, and its quality was more than a grade higher than sixth-rank True Qi.

Attacking the Five Elements Block with Grandmaster power could directly break through its weakening limit.

But since none of those present were Grandmasters, lineage master Lu also gave another suggestion—one could try using a Supreme-grade intent.

With the overbearing nature of the Supreme grade, there was also a chance to break through the opponent's Five Elements Block power.

At this moment, Xiao Han wanted to test whether the sharp edge of a Supreme-grade intent could truly pierce through this indestructible defense.

"Ice Prison Descends!"

Xiao Han shouted lowly, his left hand rapidly forming seals in front of his chest, while the cold light on the tip of the Ice Prison long spear in his right hand suddenly surged.

Behind him, a towering and hideous phantom of an Ice Prison fully manifested from the Void Realm.

That Ice Prison Phantom was dozens of zhang high, composed entirely of deep-blue ten-thousand-year ice.

Every block of ice was like a meticulously carved cage bar, each as thick as a pillar.
