Chapter 342 With Complete Ease
Chapter 342 With Complete Ease
The atmosphere instantly turned silent. A stifling pressure crawled through the Radiant Core disciples.
At that moment, the duel began!
Kali immediately made her move before anyone else. Her Draconinc Ice Wing wildly flapped, propelling her body forward at unmatched speeds.
As she flew, Kali's fingertips glowed with Ice Law essence as she discharged luminous blue threads of her Ice Law Marks.
The Ice Law Marks threads soared straight towards Huo Zhi.
The Ice Law Mark threads not only moved at lightning-like speed but also released a continuous stream of frost energy.
The frost energy rapidly infused into the atmosphere, engulfing the area right around Huo Zhi.
Huo Zhi's pupils contracted. All in a moment, the pressure doubled by dozens of times now that Kali was attacking!
In that instant, Huo Zhi whipped out a Master Grade True Spirit Sword.
The True Spirit Sword caused a powerful Sword presence to gush out of Huo Zhi. His prowess instantly climbed to its absolute peak state.
Simultaneously, Huo Zhi's white light aura turned blinding.
He launched himself backward, attempting to move at swift speeds but was met with immediate, powerful resistance.
Attempting to move backward felt as if he was trudging through sludge. Moreover, it became increasingly colder the more he flew back.
Temperature, whether hot or cold, could barely affect even the weakest of Divine realm cultivator. But this only applies to temperatures of weak natural environments.
This current temperature was directly controlled by Kali's superior prowess. It can naturally shred right through Divine defenses. Such an increase in the cold also added to slow down Huo Li's movements.
'Damnit! Not even my Radiance Sword Art can tear through the cold atmosphere?' Huo Li internally cursed, feeling a rise of dread.
The Radiance Sword Arts was derived from the mystical Light Laws and the essence of Sword Laws.
Its effect is supposed to be blinding flashes to an enemy's vision as Light Laws are incomparably bright. And the ability to tear pierce through defenses as Sword Laws have powerful striking prowess.
Combined together would make for a terrifying move. Furthermore, the requirement to cultivate this art is to just be proficient with Light Laws.
Huo Zhi could genuinely be considered a grand genius. He had even reached the fifth stage of the Radiance Sword Arts, Sword Light Ray!
With a causal move from him, he can easily strike down any peak-tier 3rdfall genius.
But while pouring nearly all of his strength, Huo Zhi couldn't even tear through Kali's frost energy atmosphere. The difference in strength was too vast.
Kali merely smiled at this feeble resistance.
She didn't retract her hand as her face suddenly started to gain crystal blue markings.
When these blue markings appeared, Elder Weilong and Elder Chun, who were intently observing, felt their eyes widen.
'She mastered fusing Law Marks into her bloodstream and can now fuse into her whole body?!'
As in response to the Elders' unspoken questions, Ice Law Marks started to rapidly appear over Kali's hands, and her legs glowed with luminous Ice Law essence.
Indeed, Kali's Expert level Source Law attainments increased from Threshold Success to Ordinary Success.
At this stage, she can directly apply the power of her Ice Law Marks to her entire body!
Now, it wasn't as simple as unleashing the power of Source Law Marks from the dantian.
Currently, Kali completely fuses the abundance of energy within her bloodline, organs, and skeleton with her Ice Law Marks for an even greater multiplier to her prowess!
Her understanding and level of control reached the point where she could draw out the surface-level depths of the Source Law attainment path.
The moment Ice Law Marks fused into Kali's body, her speed monstrously increased!
Kali's body soared with a near-deafening sonic boom.
Powerful airwaves discharged from her, causing a frenzied whirlwind to whip around the entire courtyard.
"Ah?!"
Lu Lin, who was distracted by the sudden fight, shielded her face as she revolved all the energies within her Inner World to resist flying off into the skies.
'Shit!' Yang Lin cursed within his mind as he needed to deploy the same tactic as Lu Lin.
Amazingly enough, the recording ring stayed stable the whole time, as if it was reinforced with greater power than what Yang Lin could produce.
Cain wasn't affected at all by the airwaves. While Amber had already retreated a considerable distance and cloaked herself in blue Spirit energy to calmly resist the pressure.
In the span of a split second, Kali had appeared above Huo Zhi as if she had teleported!
Ice Law essence rapidly spread, encasing Huo Zhi in her inescapable aura. She tightly locked down the space around him. Huo Zhi had zero chances to escape!
Kali couldn't stop herself from cruelly smirking. She slammed her Ice Law Mark infused palm straight at Huo Zhi's head.
Huo Zhi reacted on his pure battle instincts. If he couldn't escape, the only option was to charge straight head-on.
His True Spirit Sword swiped up in a flash of white, meeting Kali's Icy palm in a frontal collision!
'Chi!'
Instead of the sound of flesh tearing or metal crashing, the sound of Ice forming rippled across the courtyard.
In that moment, everyone witnessed Kali tightly gripping down on the Master Grade True Spirit Sword and causing crystal blue ice to rapidly form along its blade surface!
"What?!?"
Not only Huo Zhi was horrified with shock, but so were Lu Lin and Yang Ling.
After all, this was a Master Grade True Spirit weapon!
Such a weapon can easily slice through the toughest mortal metal. And it can even shatter Qi-infused metal to absolute pieces!
Furthermore, the Master Grade Spirit insignia symbols on the blade amplified its prowess by 12x.
No physical body should be able to match the strength of any Spirit Weapons.
And yet, Kali was gripping the True Spirit Sword without even a slight scratch on her fleshly hand.
That cruel smirk on Kali's beautiful face drowned Huo Zhi into the pits of despair. He could barely feel his body at this point.
The Ice aura already shattered his protective Divine aura and drilled through his bodily defenses, causing his internal body to freeze from the Ice essence.
Even more damaging was the fact that his Radiance Light aura simply had no effect on Kali's vision or attacking power.
The Radiance Light Arts have the additional effect of weakening attacks through the purifying power of Light Laws.
But that was utterly useless against Kali.
Huo Zhi had no other options. And at that moment, his eyes blazed with an indomitable fighting spirit!
If he's going to lose, he might as well give it his absolute all!
Huo Zhi gave a mighty battle cry while opening his other palm wide-open. He poured every ounce of his Inner World strength straight into his palm, creating a massive stream of Light Law essence and Sword energy.
The two streams of powers instantly combined into one long Radiance Light Sword!
This was Huo Zhi's strongest attack; Light of Sword! His prowess surged to his absolute zenith.
Cracks split open his palm, blood shooting out of it. And his Inner World ferociously trembled as if it would break apart.
Any middle-tier 4thfall expert would feel suffocated in the face of this massive power surge.
But Kali was undisturbed. No matter how much Huo Zhi's prowess increased, she only felt a strong breeze brush her skin.
At the same time Huo Zhi formed his Light of Sword skill, Kali made her move.
She instantly summoned nearly 40% of her energy reserves capacity to her other palm, forming a massive Ice Draconinc Claw.
Kali thrust her Ice Draconinc Claw forward without any regard to Huo Zhi's power surge.
There weren't any flashy Qi explosions, only the sounds of Ice loudly forming as Kali's Ice Draconinc Claw merely touched the Light of Sword.
The Light of Sword completely froze over within a moment before shattering into particles of tiny white lights!
Kali's Ice Draconinc Claw continued straight for Huo Zhi's mortified face.
But inches before his face, Kali stopped, only letting the remnant force of Ice Draconinc Claw drill into Huo Zhi's body.
Even with just the remnant force, Huo Zhi's eyes split open to the point they nearly tore apart.
Kali's powerful Ice Law essence shredded all of his Divine defenses completely before drilling into his Inner World.
His Inner World similarly couldn't put up any defenses.
Ice Law essence rapidly spread, freezing around 70% of his entire Inner World within just moments!
Huo Zhi miserably coughed as immense freezing pain assaulted his whole body. He crashed to the ground, shivering in complete anguish.
It was impossible for him to fight anymore.
Huo Zhi, a top-tier Radiant Core disciple, a peak genius with middle-tier 4thfall prowess, was utterly dominated for the entire match.
And it was done by a Divine Mortal only at Early Stage Sacred Sage!
Kali only relishes in her victory for a moment before quickly waving her hands and recalling back her Ice Law essence from Huo Zhi's body.
She really felt that Huo Zhi should be counting his graces now.
If she didn't hold back on her last attack, Huo Zhi's frozen brain chucks would've been splattered all over the ground.
Despite her malicious thoughts, Kali gave a more friendly smirk as she reached her hand out to Huo Zhi, saying, "That was a good fight. We should do it again sometime soon."
At that moment, the whole courtyard was dead silent.
Yang Lin, Lu Lin, Elder Chun, and even Elder Weilong couldn't believe just how decisive that battle was.
That fight was similar to the one she had in Yellow Dragon City. But her opponent, this time, was thousands of times stronger!
Yet, Huo Zhi was dominated all the same.
Moreover, it appears as if Kali was barely trying throughout the whole battle...
Huo Zhi silently looked up at Kali's seemingly showcase of good sportsmanship.
Having such beauty up close to him nearly left him in a bit of a daze. Her personality may be cold, but her strength was unfathomably attractive.
She had complete grace while fighting, truly like a fairy ice maiden.
Huo Zhi only reacted on autopilot as he dumbfoundedly took Kali's palm. As he rose to his feet, a wry smile crossed his face.
He lightly sighed. "Fairy Kali truly is amazing. A Divine Mortal prowess is unmatched."
At this time, Lu Lin was still reeling from how overwhelming Kali's prowess was.
But a sudden cough interrupted her thoughts and caused the hair on her arms to rise in dread.
"Well then. It's our turn, right?" Cain spoke in a polite tone.
Such a turn only caused Lu Lin's expression to turn grave. She slowly turned over with movements stiff as a robot to stare at Cain's handsome face.
