Chapter 1515:
The Sword of Baihu Ling kept moving to the Ice Phoenix, destroying her Ice s.h.i.+eld.
The Ice Phoenix had only moved back a few steps, but it wasn"t enough. The sword came slicing.
Fortunately, as the Ice Phoenix had moved back enough by now, the sword couldn"t slice her neck, but it managed to slice the nose of the Ice Phoenix, making it scratch.
Seeing her b.l.o.o.d.y nose, the Ice Phoenix screeched like an evil spirit. "You! You have successfully managed to infuriate me! I will break you now!"
An frozen energy blast took place between the two ladies, sending Baihu Ling flying back. Most of her clothes were torn now, revealing too much of her skin.
Fortunately, as a G.o.dly Beast, her skin was strong enough to resist the blast.
"If that was the best you could do, I"m unimpressed," Baihu Ling answered as she stood up.
"You have no idea, little girl!" The cold voice of Ice Phoenix fell in the years of the young lady.
Baihu Ling prepared to attack again, only to realize that she couldn"t move now! There was a thick layer of Ice, and her feet were frozen in the ice. The Ice kept moving up, covering even her knees.
The Ice wasn"t even any ordinary ice that could be broken easily. She was trapped.
"You have this beautiful body, a scar. I don"t want this ugly body anymore. I want your body now? Let me take over it!"
The mist started disappearing now that Baihu Ling was trapped, revealing the surroundings. Ling was able to finally see the face of her enemy, which was completely pale. The eyes of the Ice Phoenix were lifeless as if she was dead, yet she was moving. Her nose was bleeding as it was sliced.
Watching the Ice Phoenix close in, the White Tiger Princess started getting worried as she struggled to free herself, but she couldn"t. The ice was just too strong.
The Ice Phoenix raised her right hand. A spear made of snow appeared in her hand, which she thrust toward the White Tiger Princess.
Baihu Ling closed her eyes, realizing she was trapped now. She couldn"t escape. Even her soul weapon was lying in the distance. Because of the cold, she couldn"t move her hand at all.
Clank~
Just as the spear was about to stab Baihu Ling, a sharp metallic noise came. Baihu Ling opened her eyes, gazing down.
She noticed a heavy black sword before her like her s.h.i.+eld, which had blocked the spear. Instead, it was the spear that had shattered.
The young woman looked to her hand, wondering who was holding the sword. Who had arrived to help her?
She noticed a young man standing before her, who was none other than Long Chen. However, for some reason, he looked like a completely different person now. There was a powerful aura around him that wasn"t there before. His body appeared to be filled with strength.
"So you didn"t run." Baihu Ling smiled weakly. She hadn"t been abandoned all alone. Someone had arrived to save her right at the door of death.
Long Chen gazed into the eyes of Baihu Ling. "How could I abandon you?"
"Thank you for keeping this one busy while I recovered. Now leave the rest to me," he declared as he attacked with the Sword of Time.
Now that his core was healed, he was able to use the Sword of Time and much more! He was back to his usual old self!
He didn"t know what was in that small orb, but it appeared to have immense energy. He needed a lot of energy to heal himself, yet that orb not only healed him, but it still had some of that Qi left.
Long Chen used that excess Qi to break through the bottleneck in his cultivation, becoming even stronger.
Previously he was as strong as the G.o.dly Beast Heirs, but now he was slightly stronger than them with his breakthrough. He was in the same realm as the G.o.d Beasts now, even though he was in the lower states of that Realm.
He had entered the initial stages of the G.o.d Realm. The Heavenly Emperor, the Demon Emperor, and all the G.o.d Beasts were at the Peak States of the G.o.d Realm, which was their limit.
It was as if Long Chen had reached the same floor as them, but he was still a few steps behind, despite being in the same realm.
Everything came so fast for him that even he was surprised. After healing his core, his cultivation jump appeared to be even easier.
It was as if his new core, which he made after his old core was hurt, had no flaws of his old core. Moreover, it also received some divine energy from the Martial Soul, which had possessed him when facing the Rainbow Phoenix. That came as a blessing in disguise.
It was even more important since that takeover of his body, and his core damage had made his core able to use the Origin Energy.
As someone who was born as a human, Long Chen couldn"t use the Origin Energy to its full strength. He also couldn"t use the Origin Energy when cultivating even though the Origin Energy was immense in Higher Ranked worlds, compared to the negligible amount of Qi here.
"Another Prey!" The Ice Phoenix cackled as she froze Long Chen"s feat as well.
"Not going to work," Long Chen"s voice came from behind the Ice Phoenix as his illusion disappeared.
"Feels so good to be able to use my Laws again."
The Ice Phoenix flew to a distance hiding in the mist that surrounded the place once again, making her invisible.
Unfortunately, that lady was really underestimating Long Chen, who looked exactly where she was standing. It was as if he could see her even through the mist, which stunned the Ice Phoenix.
"You can see me?" The Ice Phoenix asked in shock.
"Should I not? Are you feeling shy?" Long Chen smiled. Until now, he hadn"t attacked the Ice Phoenix even once.
Instead, he moved back to Baihu Ling. He thrust his sword of time on the block of Ice, shattering it and freeing Ling.
"You can really see her? That"s amazing! We should be able to kill her then! Just tell me where she is, and I"ll attack!" Baihu Ling picked up her Sword as well.
"Little Princess, it"s time you take some rest. You fought enough. It"s my time to do something." Long Chen tapped the bare shoulder of the lady.
Now that he was healed, he didn"t worry about where he was. He didn"t need to be careful around the young lady. He could be his real self, and that was what he had been missing for a long time! The old Long Chen was back!
