Seeing that Qingfeng Li had dodged his attack, the White Hair Devil was surprised. He certainly knew the power of his own attack, which made the fact that Qingfeng Li had so effortlessly escaped it even more astonis.h.i.+ng.
The pair of wings that appeared on Qingfeng Li’s back were immensely strong, and they were able to keep up with his Spirit Monarch Realm level speed easily.
Upon witnessing the unusualness of Qingfeng Li’s Wind Elemental Wings, the White Hair Devil felt that they had to be another type of ultimate treasure as well. Otherwise, Qingfeng’s speed would not have reached levels comparable to the Half-step Spirit Monarch Realm.
“Qingfeng Li, it looks like you have more treasures on you than just the saint level Golden Flames. I guess I will have to kill you today, or else I won’t be able to make all these treasures mine.”
The White Hair Devil glared at Qingfeng Li with eyes full of the intent to kill. He definitely lived up to the “Devil” in his name, with his att.i.tude of wanting to forcibly seize whatever he set his eyes on.
Qingfeng Li had disdain written all over his face when he responded, “Before spouting all this big talk about killing me, try to keep up with my speed first.”
Qingfeng Li continued to put his Wind Elemental Wings to good use. His body turned into flashes of cyan whirlwinds and flew all over the sky at a speed faster than lightning. There was no way for the White Hair Devil to catch up to him.
Though, after about an hour, Qingfeng Li’s face paled. Beads of pea-sized sweat trickled down his forehead, and he felt his body was becoming frail. The use of the Wind Elemental Wings had greatly depleted the vital essence in his body and therefore had made him physically weak.
The White Hair Devil bursted out into a fit of violent laughter as he watched Qingfeng Li struggle. He then declared coldly, “Although you are extremely speedy, you also have to pay the great price of vital essence depletion. Now that you are done, it is my turn! Take my Icebound World!”
Once again, the White Hair Devil applied the Ice and Snow Law. Suddenly, a blizzard descended, which covered up Qingfeng Li’s body and formed a colossal ice block, freezing Qingfeng’s body inside of it.
Qingfeng Li felt an intense chill inside of his body, as if he had been transported to the North Pole. In fact, the temperature he was locked in was immensely lower than that of the North Pole, making him feel like he was soaked through in the middle of an avalanche.
Promptly, Qingfeng Li started summoning the fire elemental vital essence from within his body to help him fight off the cold. He also thought of utilizing the Golden Flames, but soon realized that it was impossible with his currently depleted physical strength.
Mengyao Xu’s eyes were filled with concern after she saw that Qingfeng Li had been frozen up.
She jumped into the air while drawing out her Fairy Sword and striking forward forcefully. A silver light beam formed and started travelling at an insane speed. It brutally struck the ice block surrounding Qingfeng Li, leaving a crack in it.
“Oh, another treasure! It contains the aura of an immortal sword, how wondrous.” The White Hair Devil studied Mengyao Xu with eyes blazing with desire.
Mengyao Xu did not respond. She kept on striking the Fairy Sword in her hand, producing flashes of powerful silver light beams. The light beams lacerated the heavens and earth, directly tearing up the Ice and Snow Law adhered on the surface of Qingfeng Li’s body.
Inside the ice block, Qingfeng Li started exercising his Mortal Purgatory Body and formed a cl.u.s.ter of powerful h.e.l.l talisman scripts on his fist. At the same time, he used the Gold Dao Seed and forcefully punched the ice around him.
Boooom!
With the help of Mengyao Xu, Qingfeng Li cracked the ice block created from the Ice-Snow Law with Strangle h.e.l.l Fist. His body came out of the void abruptly and landed beside Mengyao Xu.
“Big Brother Li, are you alright?” Mengyao Xu asked as she watched Qingfeng Li attentively.
Qingfeng Li shook his head in response, “I am fine for now. It’s just that I have exhausted my vital essence and physical strength a lot. Luckily, your sword techniques were forceful and effective. As a result, we were able to break the ice block.”
At this time, Mengyao Xu’s face had gone pale, and drops of pea-sized sweat started rolling down her forehead. Her physical strength had been exhausted as well. Even though she had cultivated the Fairy Sword Techniques, there was also a limit to how many times she could exercise them at once. After five times, she would suffer an immense loss of physical strength.
In order to help Qingfeng Li break the Ice and Snow Law, she had used the techniques six times. Now, her body was wobbly, looking like she was about to fall over at any moment.
Qingfeng Li had noticed that Mengyao Xu was in a frail state as her body was slightly falling forward. He quickly reached out his hand to hold her up and comforted her gently, “You have completely exhausted your physical strength and can no long use the Fairy Sword. You have to get some rest now.”
Suddenly, the White Hair Devil drew out an ice club. The ice club was entirely made of white ice and was a Spirit Monarch level spiritual treasure. The entirety of its body was emitting talisman scripts of Order – they were Heavenly Dao talisman scripts of the Great Emperor, looking immensely destructive. As soon as it appeared, it ruptured the void, leaving behind a gigantic black hole.
Some people in the crowd recognized the ice club and started exclaiming in awe.
“Wow, the Ice-Snow Monarch Club… a first stage monarch level spiritual treasure! Who would have thought?”
“The White Hair Devil took out the Ice-snow Monarch Club just to killing Qingfeng Li? That’s kind of unfair.”
“That’s true. The legendary Ice-Snow Monarch Club is made with monarch level materials. It is invincibly powerful!”
All of the self-cultivators looked at the White Hair Devil in horror. Although the White Hair Devil’s notoriety and strength were reasons enough for them to fear, the Ice-Snow Monarch Club had an even more incomparably horrifying reputation.
There was once a master of the Ninth Level of the Supreme Realm who was about to achieve the Spirit Monarch Realm but got killed by the White Hair Devil with one hit using the Ice-Snow Monarch Club. Because of that event, the notoriety of the Ice-Snow Monarch Club was widespread.
The Peach Blossom She-Devil had helped Qingfeng Li block off the white icicles in the sky a while ago. Now she saw that White Hair Devil had taken out the Ice-snow Monarch Club, a shred of concern crossed her face.
She promptly flew down from the air and stood in front of Qingfeng Li again to s.h.i.+eld him. Activating her will, the Peach Blossom She-Devil took out a branch from a peach blossom tree from her interspatial ring.
This peach blossom branch was rather small as it was only of half a foot tall. Its stem was pink and sitting on top of it was a fresh, blooming blossom. It was giving off a fierce aura, ripping one black hole after another in the s.p.a.ce surrounding it.
“Thats the first stage Monarch Level Spiritual Treasure, the Spirit Monarch Peach Blossom.”
“To protect Qingfeng Li, the Peach Blossom She-Devil is even willing to take out Spirit Monarch Peach Blossom! Who would have thought…”
“The Peach Blossom She-Devil is showing so much favor for Qingfeng Li! I wish I was him.”
Those self-cultivators who had identified the Spirit Monarch Peach Blossom started shouting out their bewilderment.
Qingfeng Li had learned the name of the Spirit Monarch Peach Blossom, and the fact that it was a spiritual treasure comparable to the Ice-snow Monarch Club.
He couldn’t help but furrow his brows in confusion. He wondered why the Peach Blossom She-Devil would go out of her way to help him, and whether she had any hidden agendas.
Coldness crossed the eyes of the White Hair Devil as he threatened cruelly, “Peach Blossom She-Devil, are you sure about this? Taking out your Spirit Monarch Peach Blossom just to protect this man? You should know that once Spirit Monarch Peach Blossom and Ice-snow Monarch Club clash, your entire inn will be coming down.”
The Peach Blossom She-Devil smiled lusciously and slightly parted her bright red lips, “So long as Qingfeng is staying at my Peach Blossom Inn, he is a customer of mine. I have the responsibility and obligation to ensure his safety. I will allow no one to cause him harm, not even you, White Hair Devil.”
The White Hair Devil answered, “Now that I have warned you about it, don’t blame me for not holding back.”
The White Hair Devil marched towards Peach Blossom She-Devil with the Ice-snow Monarch Club in his hand. Every inch of his body was emanating his intent to kill and his frightful presence. His movements had caused the entire s.p.a.ce to become unstable. Moreover, a set of distinct footprints appeared in the ground as he pa.s.sed.
