Phantom of the God Descending Tower

The icy plains were bitterly cold, yet this biting wind did not seem to have much of an effect on the dark-skinned boy.

He walked step by step toward the girl in white. Behind him, a vast black ocean appeared, and in the middle of this ocean was a huge whirlpool. A blood moon hung high above the whirlpool, slowly rising and falling.

These strange phenomena were the scene of the God Burying Abyss, and the blood moon was the Dharma Aspect Totem of the dark-skinned youth.

The dark-skinned youth, wielding a curved blade, approached the White-robed woman step by step.

"If you had control of the God Descending Tower, I would naturally be no match for you. But now, your connection with the God Descending Tower has been severed by the Divine Lord. What makes you think you can fight me? You are merely an Artifact Spirit. Even your sword and your body are just simulations of energy."

As the dark-skinned youth spoke, the blood moon had already entered his body. When he unleashed all his killing intent, he no longer appeared foolish or idiotic, but rather like a ferocious demon king!

Compared to martial artists, the combat power of an energy-based Artifact Spirit is extremely limited.

The White-robed woman remained silent, gazing at the vast ice plain. She gently clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and her body emitted a hazy light.

The light was seven-colored, dreamlike, and radiated outwards in all directions.

The entire God Descending Tower then began to tremble slightly.

Seeing this, the dark-skinned youth was startled. He took a step back and looked around in surprise. In all directions, the ice field was showing traces of cracks in the glacier.

"Impossible... The Divine Lord has severed your connection with the God Descending Tower, how could you... possibly activate the God Descending Tower?"

He was filled with doubt and apprehension. The Divine Lord had been preparing for this plan for countless millennia. As the executor of this plan, if he succeeded, he would receive the Divine Lord's Demonic Heaven Bestowal, which was an unparalleled opportunity.

If he fails, the Divine Lord will take away his soul and all his energy, which is more terrifying than death!

At the critical moment, the dark-skinned youth roared and charged straight at the White-robed woman. His body transformed into a streak of black light, and his malevolent curved blade slashed directly at the White-robed woman's crown.

"Clang!"

With a loud bang, the White-robed woman, like the embodiment of ice and snow, conjured a beautiful, flawless six-pointed Ice Ling Flower in the void before her. This Ice Ling Flower blocked the dark-skinned youth's strike.

However, after the first cut, the Ice Ling Flower already had a crack!

The dark-skinned youth's eyes gleamed with a ferocious light. He roared and swung his sword a second time. This strike carried the power of a blood moon, and the blinding crimson light dyed the endless snowfield a deep red.

"Snap!"

The Ice Ling Flower had split open, seemingly unable to withstand the dark-skinned youth's attacks.

However, protected by the Ice Ling Flower, the White-robed woman's face remained calm and undisturbed. Her heart was also completely empty. She didn't even glance at the blood-red scimitar, as if everything happening before her eyes had nothing to do with her.

The threat of death was imminent, yet the White-robed woman still clasped her hands together in front of her chest, as if she were performing a most devout ritual.

The scimitar slashed down again and again, snowflakes falling, tinged with an eerie red, as if stained with blood.

The White-robed woman remained unmoved; she was like a goddess rising from the ashes in the snow...

The tremors of the God Descending Tower grew more and more violent. Far outside the Empress Secret Realm, amidst the turbulent currents of the Eternal Vortex, the elders of various forces stared blankly at the entrance to the Empress Secret Realm.

The tremors of the God Descending Tower caused the entrance to the Empress Secret Realm to shake as well.

"What happened? What's going on?!"

First, a gigantic Eye of the Divine appeared at the center of the God Burying Abyss vortex, and then the Empress Secret Realm began to tremble violently, but they had no idea what was happening.

Now, even the supreme elders of the major forces are somewhat panicked. Whether it is the Empress Secret Realm or the God Burying Abyss Vortex, their power is beyond what they can withstand. If something happens and they are swept into the God Burying Abyss, they will die without a burial place!

Some people have even started considering evacuation.

Just then, a loud boom was heard. They saw that the void not far away was as if it had been cleaved open by a giant sword. The shattered space rapidly split open to both sides, and endless seawater was swept up by this spatial vortex, creating a huge ocean storm!

"Careful!"

Someone shouted that before this terrifying power, they were like leaves in a storm, completely unable to control their own bodies.

Death was so close, and no one knew why such a change had suddenly occurred in the Empress Secret Realm and the God Burying Abyss.

Just as the elders and luminaries of the various powers were losing control of their bodies and were about to be swallowed by the vortex, a huge pagoda suddenly appeared from the Space Rift.

This pagoda is not a physical object, but a phantom formed from condensed energy. After the pagoda appeared, it swept away all the storm forces in the surrounding space, like Divine Mountain descending from the sky, and pressed down on the Eternal Vortex.

This enormous pagoda, carrying raging torrents and towering waves, was tilting towards the Eternal Vortex; the scene resembled an apocalyptic vision.

Many renowned elders felt their vision go black, their heart stop beating, and their blood seem to freeze the moment the pagoda appeared. Their vital energy was stirred by this energy, surging in their dantian.

Some of the weaker individuals already had traces of blood trickling from the corners of their mouths.

This bizarre scene, like the supreme might of heaven, gave the many renowned figures of the Tianyuan Realm present a tremendous shock to their souls!

The pagoda crashed into the Eternal Vortex, within which the eye remained open, its indifference radiating an aura of despair and death.

Boom!

The base of the pagoda, right in the center, is the pupil of that enormous eye!

Click!

The pagoda shone brightly, and a terrifying chill spread across the sea.

Countless surging waves were frozen by the cold air, forming glaciers stretching for thousands of miles!

The glacier spread in all directions, freezing the ever-surging seawater around the Eternal Vortex!

Everyone present was utterly shocked by this sight. The Eternal Vortex had been frozen?

That terrifying torrent, powerful enough to engulf even the Great Emperor, could actually freeze?

If this got out, it would be absolutely shocking.

The glacier only stopped a few hundred miles away from all the famous figures. The pagoda's phantom had disappeared, and the giant eye was sealed by the glacier, so they could no longer see it.

The storm of the Eternal Vortex ceased, and people looked at each other, frozen like stone statues. This sudden turn of events had rendered them all incapable of thinking.

What exactly happened within the Empress Secret Realm?

And at this time...

On the second floor of the God Descending Tower, in the desolate world where Yi Yun was, above the lush canyon, space suddenly distorted, and a white-clad figure flew out from the distorted space. She was the White-robed woman who had been fighting the dark-skinned youth.

Her figure had become semi-transparent, appearing extremely weak, and her once indifferent and beautiful eyes seemed to have lost their luster.

She hovered in the air for a few breaths, then finally glanced at the cave where Yi Yun was hiding, and with a flash, flew towards the cave entrance...
