Chapter 537: Triggering the Treasure Seal

Random Recommendation:

Boom!!!

The white ice meteorite, heavy with power, pierced through the azure tenacity light, destroyed clusters of giant trees, then smashed onto the mountainside, erupting violently.

Countless hailstones shot out fiercely, ice mist surged into the sky, quickly enveloping the entire battlefield.

Ning Zhuo's figure was completely obscured, only the Three Generals' Camp, standing within the sea of fire, remained united, holding their ground.

Earth Element - Earth Escape Technique!

Ning Zhuo continuously burrowed deep underground.

His body was covered in a layer of white frost, the frost constantly thickening, launching a strong erosion against him.

"Even if I simultaneously cast three spells, I cannot block a single spell from the Heavenly Frost Ghost Cultivator!"

Ning Zhuo's heart felt a chill.

This direct confrontation fully revealed the gap between the two sides.

"This should be the strongest enemy I've faced directly, right?"

Speaking of which, Lord Long was undoubtedly stronger than Heavenly Frost, but in the previous ambush, the White Jade Camp was the main force resisting Lord Long head-on. Although Ning Zhuo participated, he only played the role of the Old Stone Monster along with Sun Lingtong, reaping benefits all over the battlefield.

At this moment, he not only faced Heavenly Frost directly, but was also the main force resisting Heavenly Frost, immediately feeling unprecedented pressure.

"Cough, cough."

Ning Zhuo suddenly coughed, and tiny ice particles appeared in the blood he spat out.

He was secretly shocked, as he had already activated healing spells, but the effect was poor.

"Xiao Zhuo, use Warm Fire Pills to heal your injuries," Sun Lingtong reminded him promptly.

Ning Zhuo followed the advice, immediately swallowing a Warm Fire Pill. He activated his spiritual power, rapidly circulating the medicinal energy, which indeed had a swift effect. Not only did a warm current surge within his body, dispelling the chill, but even the white frost on his body surface gradually melted away.

"My Five Element spells are oriented towards attack, and I haven't put effort into healing on a daily basis."

Facing an unprecedentedly strong enemy, Ning Zhuo immediately discovered his shortcomings.

"The combat power of the Three Generals' Camp is already struggling to deal with one Earth Ash. I cannot converge with them, but should instead try to entangle Heavenly Ghost Heavenly Frost, so that the Three Generals' Camp can withdraw first!"

Ning Zhuo possessed the Mechanical Soaring Dragon, which was equivalent to having the Nascent Soul stage's Void Escape technique. Therefore, although the enemy's situation was fierce and put him under considerable pressure, he did not panic.

He had continuously invested in the Three Generals' Camp. If the Three Generals' Camp were to be annihilated in this battle, it would be a significant loss for him.

"Next, I will cast spells from underground and attack Heavenly Frost from a distance!"

Earth Element - Flying Rock - Standing Cone.

Just as Ning Zhuo was about to aim at Heavenly Frost, his divine sense suddenly alerted him, and he instantly changed his attack direction, shooting the cone-shaped rocks in various directions below.

Ghostly creatures let out cries of pain or hisses.

Their sneak attack was discovered by Ning Zhuo, and he severely suppressed a wave, but there were still a dozen ghosts, coming from below, continuing to pounce on Ning Zhuo.

These ghostly creatures were completely black, with streaks of orange-red lava cracks distributed all over their bodies, emitting intense heat.

They were well-versed in the Earth Escape technique, moving through the ground as if in water.

"Earth熔 Ghost!"

Ning Zhuo cried out internally, casting spells to form a second wave of attack.

Although he again killed many Earth熔 Ghosts, at the same time, more and more ghosts surged forward like a relentless tide.

Sun Lingtong, using the Mechanical Soaring Dragon, had a much deeper range of detection than Ning Zhuo. He immediately warned, "Xiao Zhuo, don't stay in the same spot."

"Understood!" Ning Zhuo immediately fought as he moved, killing a large number of熔 Ghosts along the way.

Suddenly, he felt a strong coldness arise from nowhere, aggressively eroding him from the inside out. In just a few breaths, his movements slowed, his limbs stiffened, and frost flowers hung on his eyebrows.

Sun Lingtong quickly reminded him, "It's Heavenly Frost attacking you! But how he's doing it is unknown."

Ning Zhuo used his divine sense to look inward: "It's my soul! His attack originates from my soul, harming my physical body."

Divine Ability - Frost Soul Gaze!

The white-robed ghost cultivator Heavenly Frost hovered high in the air, his right hand forming a sword-finger gesture, held before his chest, silently operating a divine ability.

His eyes were a ghostly white, and in his special vision, only the soul form of living beings was revealed.

At this moment, he focused on Ning Zhuo's soul.

The divine ability he employed was exceedingly subtle. As long as a target was gazed upon by Heavenly Frost for more than three breaths, the target's three souls and seven spirits would be enveloped by coldness. However, this coldness did not first harm the soul, but instead expanded outwards, injuring the physical body.

After the physical body was frozen to death, the accumulated terrifying cold energy would then surge back, delivering a devastating blow to the cultivator's soul.

Ning Zhuo was targeted by Heavenly Frost, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, becoming increasingly perilous.

He quickly took out various medicinal pills, consuming them rapidly. The medicinal energy was quickly circulated, turning into streams of medicine, flowing throughout his body, dispelling coldness, or providing vitality, or restoring flesh and blood.

Ning Zhuo's preparation for battle was quite thorough. This was mainly due to his abundant wealth, which allowed him to purchase many medicinal pills before the great battle. These medicinal pills were categorized, and although their quality was mediocre, they won by quantity.

Fire Element - Flame Cloak!

At a critical moment, the profound Five Elements realm once again demonstrated its power, allowing Ning Zhuo, in a perilous situation, to rapidly turn his thoughts, consuming thousands of mirror thoughts in his spiritual sea, and conceive a Fire Element defensive spell.

Flames erupted from the Fire Element Heart Temple, quickly burning throughout his flesh and blood. Ning Zhuo's body, from the inside out, was enveloped in a warm fire.

Zzzzzz...

Ning Zhuo was roasted by the flames, his flesh and blood being consumed by the fire, like meat skewers being roasted, and the smell of charring immediately emanated.

Heavenly Frost's vision was quite special, and he immediately detected the changes in Ning Zhuo's body. He let out a cold laugh, suddenly retracting the power of his divine ability.

In an instant, the coldness greatly diminished, causing flames to erupt all over Ning Zhuo, the tongues of fire rising three feet above his head.

Ning Zhuo was easily calculated by Heavenly Frost, and he couldn't help but let out a painful groan, subconsciously wanting to immediately stop the Flame Cloak spell. But at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flickered in his spiritual sea.

The inspiration was like a lightning bolt, splitting the sky of the spiritual sea, cleaving away nearly a thousand mirror thoughts along the way.

Ning Zhuo invested a portion of his divine sense, pouring it into his heart.

The statue within the Fire Element Heart Temple immediately became lifelike, its eyebrows bearing Ning Zhuo's likeness.

Following this change, Ning Zhuo immediately felt his control over Fire Element spells suddenly rise to another level.

He quickly reduced the power of the flames, making it match the current erosion of coldness.

"Oh?" Sun Lingtong was both surprised and delighted.

He was very clear about Ning Zhuo's situation, knowing that although the latter's Five Elements realm was quite profound, many spells were neglected in practice, and their actual combat effectiveness was another matter.

Especially these spells created on the fly, they were too targeted, but often also suffered from being biased and not very flexible.

Heavenly Frost's combat experience was too rich, his vision sharp and unique, and he could see at a glance that Ning Zhuo's spellcasting was quite stiff, so he retreated to advance, suddenly retracting the power of his divine ability, and effortlessly forced Ning Zhuo back into danger.

But he also did not expect that Ning Zhuo, at a critical moment, would master the timing of the spell, actively adapting to the sudden change in coldness.

In fact, even Ning Zhuo himself did not expect it.

"In my haste, I borrowed the existence of the Fire Element Heart Temple to timely design this Fire Element spell."

"Because the source fire is emitted by the Fire Element Heart Temple, and its participation is very high, I can indirectly adjust the strength of the spell's power by controlling the Fire Element Heart Temple. Wonderful!"

This small breakthrough during the battle seemed to open a new window for Ning Zhuo.

Heavenly Frost rapidly adjusted the power of his divine ability, making it fluctuate between strong and weak, and Ning Zhuo immediately made adjustments, causing the Flame Cloak on his body to shrink and grow.

Heavenly Frost probed once, confirming that Ning Zhuo could withstand this layer of attack, and a strange expression couldn't help but appear on his face: "This young man's situation is strange, it seems he possesses certain secrets, and his combat potential is considerable." "However, if you think you can resist my divine ability so easily, you are too naive!"

Even after forcing Ning Zhuo to this extent, Heavenly Frost had never unleashed the full power of this divine ability.

The full power of Frost Soul Gaze could generate intense coldness, directly reaching the cultivator's upper dantian spiritual sea, spreading and freezing all thoughts!

Heavenly Frost took a deep breath, immediately ceased to hold back, and fully activated his divine ability.

For a time, terrifying coldness was like a celestial waterfall pouring down, descending into Ning Zhuo's upper dantian, bringing boundless coldness and freezing all mirror thoughts along the way.

These mirror-like thoughts disintegrated one after another, and countless fragments were also submerged by the coldness, turning into nothingness.

Ning Zhuo's cultivation time was simply too short, only a mere decade or so. On weekdays, he had never encountered a bottleneck in his spiritual sea cultivation, and had always felt that the situation was quite good.

Now facing a strong enemy like Heavenly Frost, he immediately exposed his huge flaw in spiritual sea protection.

The terrifying coldness poured in without any obstruction, catching Ning Zhuo off guard.

He was skilled at using the Five Elements realm to design spells, but when it came to his own spiritual sea, it was within the scope of divine arts. Spells were mostly useless.

Ning Zhuo did not find a solution, only delayed for a few breaths, and most of the mirror thoughts in his spiritual sea were frozen to death, making his thinking several times slower.

This situation completely plunged him into the abyss of defeat!

At this moment, all his thoughts and reasoning were to be frozen and killed, completely losing the ability to think.

No matter how strong the Five Elements realm, without thought, no spell could be conceived.

"Xiao Zhuo!" Sun Lingtong could no longer restrain himself, and was about to act, pulling Ning Zhuo into the Myriad Miles Soaring Dragon and fleeing through the void.

At this very moment, a magical treasure in Ning Zhuo's mind suddenly bloomed with boundless Buddha light.

The Buddha light shone like the bright sun, clearing away all icy coldness wherever it reached.

It was none other than the Imprint of My Buddha's Inner Demon!

This precious treasure was passively triggered, emitting endless Buddha light, protecting Ning Zhuo's spiritual sea.

Within the Buddha light, countless Buddha thoughts were generated in an instant.

In a few breaths, there were tens of thousands of Buddha thoughts, distributed within Ning Zhuo's spiritual sea.

Ning Zhuo's thinking ability quickly recovered!

"That was close!"

"Just a hair's breadth from complete defeat."

Tens of thousands of Buddha thoughts shone brightly in the Buddha light, and at the same time, the Buddha light surged upwards, counterattacking Bai Shuang.

"Ah!" Bai Shuang cried out in pain, quickly covering his eyes.

From the slits of his tightly closed eyes, large amounts of blood overflowed.

Within the blood, there was even overflowing Buddha light!

Bai Shuang was a ghost cultivator, precisely countered by Buddhist techniques. This time, using his divine ability, he formed an extremely close connection with Ning Zhuo, and was backfired by the Buddha light, his eyes suffering severe damage.

For a short period, he absolutely could not use the divine ability Frost Soul Gaze again.

Sun Lingtong shouted, "Xiao Zhuo, good opportunity! Strike him while he's weak and kill him! Let's attack with all our might."

Ning Zhuo, however, shook his head: "Killing, fighting, right and wrong, it's all illusion. What's the point?"

Sun Lingtong: ?!

Although Bai Shuang kept his eyes closed, his vision was filled with this large expanse of Buddha light.

This Buddha light also shone on his spiritual sea, dispelling his other thoughts, replacing them with a large number of Buddha thoughts.

"These damn... me!" Bai Shuang began to repent in his heart: "I truly deserve to die."

"Why persecute others, persecute such a vibrant and young, beautiful life?"

"I am not human, what I'm doing is going against the heavens! Why not be kind to others?"

"May all sentient beings be happy... bullsh*t."

At the end of his thoughts, Bai Shuang forcefully twisted them back, fiercely cursing in his heart.

"These damn Buddha thoughts, get out of my spiritual sea!"

Bai Shuang did not launch a new attack, and Ning Zhuo did not take the opportunity to attack either, but instead released the Floating Ice White Jade Hand to urgently heal himself.

The two sides fell into a strange calm standoff.

"We'll attack in turns!" Liu Er shouted.

The confrontation between the Three Generals' Camp and Earth Ash entered a white-hot state.

Liu Er, Guan Hong, and Zhang Hei charged out of the iron-barrel formation, taking turns to deal with Earth Ash.

This Earth Ghost among the Heavenly and Earth Ghosts immediately activated spells to shift his position.

What he was using was not ordinary Earth Escape technique, but the Earth Striding technique, which required more skill and was more effective!

The Three Generals' Camp had participated in the ambush and witnessed the Old Stone Monster relying on the Earth Striding technique, knowing its power and subtle use.

Therefore, as soon as they saw the Earth Ghost also using such a spell, they immediately changed their target.

"Wahahaha, White Ghost, taste my spear!" Zhang Hei rushed into the sky, thrusting his spear at Heavenly Frost, his killing intent fully revealed.

Heavenly Frost kept his eyes closed, his divine sense constantly maintained.

Just as the Black Serpent Spear was about to touch the White Ghost's head, the latter suddenly reached out.

Heavenly Frost's hands directly blocked the heavy Black Serpent Spear, emitting a crisp sound of metal collision.

Spell - Nine Nether Cold Soul Claws!

Heavenly Frost's five fingers condensed profound ice, forming heavy claw gauntlets like cold ice.

Sealed within the gauntlets were a large number of ice souls, and every swing could bring out an ice wind. Countless suffering human faces of ice souls appeared in the ice wind, emitting wailing cries, causing great interference to the divine sense.

The next moment, Heavenly Frost swung his claws.

嗚嗚嗚...

Zhang Hei, struck by the double blow of the fierce icy coldness and the wailing of the ice souls, immediately fell from the sky.

But immediately afterwards, Guan Hong, supported by a large number of troops, took over from Zhang Hei, challenging the Heavenly Ghost.

After Guan Hong, it was Liu Er.

Liu, Guan, and Zhang had experienced several battles and had developed a tacit understanding. Relying on this tacit understanding, they formed a continuous offensive.

The Heavenly Ghost was quite disheveled.

Mainly, every time he wanted to counterattack, the Buddha thoughts in his spiritual sea would emerge, participating in his thinking and causing disruption.

This made him constrained every time he harbored killing intent.

Even his thoughts were limited, let alone activating spells.

The Heavenly Ghost was forced back by the Three Generals' powerful assault.

Seeing this scene, Earth Ash laughed out loud.

It was the first time he had seen his best partner so disheveled.

Hearing Earth Ash's laughter, Liu, Guan, Zhang, and Ning all felt their hearts tighten, simultaneously realizing that the opponent had not yet gone all out!
