542: Chapter 542 Absolute Zero

The Fourth Elder's demonic energy stretched across tens of thousands of miles of the starry sky, its aura so terrifying that all living beings retreated!

At this moment, he was exerting his full power to suppress Yi Mu.

From their exchange, it was clear that Yi Mu's strength was somewhat inferior to the Fourth Elder's.

She was finding it quite difficult to resist.

Although the Fourth Elder wore a relaxed expression, he did not hold back in the slightest, remaining incredibly cautious.

The power of the civilization fragment was actually superior to his own, but the woman before him seemed to possess a power that countered the fragment's Source Power, preventing it from fully awakening.

Therefore, Yi Mu's strength had not actually reached its limit.

To his surprise and delight, Yi Mu was actively suppressing the power within her body; this way, he could take down his opponent as quickly as possible!

The Fourth Elder's power grew stronger and stronger until he could fully suppress Yi Mu!

...

Bang!

On the battlefield between Fang Bai and the Ice Maiden, the combat was also extremely fierce.

In this exchange, the Ice Maiden was at a disadvantage, and the trend was becoming increasingly obvious.

Fang Bai's power was rising continuously, and her attacks had no effect on him, weirdly appearing as if they were being Weakened.

The Ice Maiden's expression was grave; she, a Tenth Order Peak expert, was actually unable to take down a junior after all this time!

Not only that, she was being suppressed!

For Fang Bai, after his breakthrough, he yearned for a hearty and satisfying battle, and the Ice Maiden's cultivation made her a worthy opponent!

Tenth Order Peak—the gap between her and Fang Bai was getting smaller and smaller!

Swish!

Golden sword light illuminated the dark starry sky; wherever the golden light passed, sheets of ice shattered!

The Ice Maiden's skills had no damaging effect on Fang Bai!

Fang Bai's speed increased once more, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of the Ice Maiden!

The latter was greatly shocked and instinctively deployed her defenses, erecting a thick ice shield before her!

Bang!

The ice shield exploded, and the Ice Maiden was sent flying backward!

Pfft!

A mouthful of essence blood sprayed from the Ice Maiden's mouth, and her complexion turned increasingly unsightly.

Fang Bai walked toward her with his sword, having no intention of wasting words.

The Ice Maiden looked resentful: "Damn it! If I weren't injured, an ant like you would have been crushed to death by me long ago!"

How could she not know that the youth before her was using her as a whetstone?

She was furious!

Yet she was helpless.

Fang Bai suddenly said, "Putting it that way makes me seem unfair. How about you recover to your peak first?"

The Ice Maiden was about to speak.

But Fang Bai spoke first: "I'm joking!"

His figure vanished instantly!

A sharp sword intent locked onto the Ice Maiden!

The latter's face changed, and she hurriedly defended herself!

Crack!

However, her defense was useless!

Ice shards scattered, and the Ice Maiden's figure was sent flying again!

Strange cracks appeared on her body as her injuries worsened!

Fang Bai gave her no room to breathe, charging straight at her once more!

"Ah! Damn you!!!"

The Ice Maiden roared, her suppressed rage instantly releasing as she directly burned her soul!

The Ice Maiden's entire body swelled, transforming into a massive, deep-blue monster!

Her aura returned to the Tenth Order Peak!

Fang Bai's expression remained calm, completely indifferent to this.

At the same time, the human emperor sword in his hand trembled slightly, and strands of Power of Faith gathered from all directions!

The Ice Maiden stared fixedly at that sword: "Power of Faith!"

Her tone carried a hint of shock.

Power of Faith—this human had actually mastered faith?

Fang Bai held the sword vertically at his brow, then suddenly thrust forward!

Tear!

Space was pierced through like a curtain!

Before the Ice Maiden, a massive sword glow instantly expanded with majestic momentum!

The Ice Maiden's pupils constricted, and almost simultaneously, she roared as she threw a punch!

Boom!

A massive explosion formed in the area, a truly grand sight.

After the explosion cleared, the Ice Maiden's arm had vanished!

She was heavily injured!

Fang Bai's gaze was calm: "You lost."

The Ice Maiden was stunned; she couldn't believe that she, a dignified Tenth-Tier Expert at the peak, could be so fragile.

"What power exactly do you possess?"

Fang Bai said calmly, "It's just that you are too weak."

"..."

In the Ice Maiden's current state, her defeat was certain.

Moreover, her opponent's aura was getting stronger, as if he might break through at any moment.

If his combat power was already comparable to a Tenth Order Peak expert before breaking through, how terrifying would he be once he did?

Fang Bai also hadn't expected that his strength would increase after a life-and-death struggle with the opponent.

Setting the system aside, his own talent was also very frightening.

Perhaps he really could rely on his own talent to break through this bottleneck.

Of course, Fang Bai wouldn't deliberately pursue any specific method of breakthrough.

To him, whichever way was fastest was the one he'd use!

Regardless, the breakthroughs provided by the system had absolutely no side effects!

Fang Bai's gaze turned to the Ice Maiden; as long as he killed her, there was a high probability he could break through.

And before that, he couldn't let others know about his method of breakthrough.

Kill her first!

Thinking of this, Fang Bai began to gather his momentum!

The Ice Maiden also seemed to sense the other's killing intent. Gritting her teeth, she willed it, and her severed arm actually restored itself!

At their level, restoring one's physical body could be said to be effortless.

As long as the divine soul was not annihilated, even if the physical body was gone, it could be reconstructed.

However, compared to Fang Bai, the Ice Maiden's current aura was undoubtedly the weaker side; her defeat seemed certain.

At this moment, Fang Bai suddenly attacked!

He charged straight at the Ice Maiden!

The latter's expression was calm, not at all frightened by that aura of death.

"Absolute Zero!"

Buzz!

As the Ice Maiden opened her mouth, a wave of cold air instantly swept out!

This was no longer ordinary cold air!

That cold air could permeate time and space, freezing the very laws of reality!

In an instant, the space within ten thousand feet was enveloped by a frigid chill!

Young Master Tang and the others on the distant battlefield felt the danger and hurriedly retreated!

"This power..."

The Seventh Elder's eyes narrowed slightly.

Even as a Tenth Order Peak expert, he couldn't help but be shocked.

Because this move of the Ice Maiden's was a bit beyond the norm!

Wait? Is this... a mutual destruction?

In the field, ten thousand miles were frozen!

At the very center, the Ice Maiden and Fang Bai were most affected by the cold air.

The Ice Maiden's face was incredibly pale, and her aura was weak.

Undoubtedly, she had been preparing this move all along.

This was her greatest trump card!

However, performing this secret technique took an enormous toll on her!

At this moment, the Ice Maiden's Source Power was almost completely exhausted!

She looked at the frozen figure ahead, and the corners of her mouth curled up.

"Haha... Hahahaha!"

Excited laughter rang out as the Ice Maiden smiled broadly: "Finally... you fell for it!"

She hadn't hesitated to use this double-edged move that harmed herself to kill the enemy, all for the sake of completely finishing off her opponent!

And she had done it!

At this moment, all of Fang Bai's life force was frozen solid; not even a shred of power leaked out!

The Ice Maiden raised her hand and waved, and the block of ice was shattered by a burst of energy!

Along with it, Fang Bai's body also shattered into pieces!

Fang Bai was dead!

Killing this super-genius was something the Ice Maiden felt very proud of.

Just then, an invisible force appeared in the area.

The Ice Maiden's face instantly stiffened, and her eyes filled with terror.

"How is this possible?!"
