Above the Absolute Zero Ice Field, the light of colliding laws tore through the sky as energy storms swept in every direction. Ling Yun wielded the Chaos Measuring Heaven Ruler, engaging Starry Eyes Projection in an earth-shaking battle. Tang Chen, Snow Empress, and Ice Empress fought around the perimeter, continuously attacking the array's nodes and disrupting Starry Eyes Projection's energy supply.
The battle was exceptionally brutal. Starry Eyes Projection's power came from the Power of Stars and Extreme Cold Vital Energy that the entire Starry Eyes Altar had accumulated over countless years, making it nearly inexhaustible. Every Star Death Ray contained the terrifying power to freeze souls and disintegrate matter. If not for the exceptionally high rank of Ling Yun's Chaos Laws, which could continuously annihilate the starlight, he would have long since been defeated. Even so, his blood and qi churned violently, his Chaos Domain fluctuated intensely, and starlight had grazed him in several places, leaving frostbite wounds deep enough to expose bone. Power of Stars continued to erode the wounds.
Tang Chen and the other two were in even greater danger. Every time they attacked a node, they drew a furious counterattack from Starry Eyes Projection. Tang Chen's Clear Sky Hammer took several Star Chains head-on, splitting the flesh between his thumb and forefinger and injuring his internal organs. Snow Empress and Ice Empress's extreme cold power had limited effect against the Star Frost Qi of the same origin; instead, the impacts scattered their Soul Power. Ice Empress was even struck in the shoulder by a stray ray of starlight, her emerald blood spilling across the ice field as her aura weakened.
"This won't work! This damned thing has too much energy! We can't outlast it!" Tang Chen coughed up blood as he sent an anxious voice transmission.
