Yin Deficient Ox Head

Buzz!!

The sword tip struck the [Anomaly Membrane], a faint, almost invisible film formed from wisps of black mist.

It was thin, yet exceptionally tough.

Ox Seat had expected to pierce the [Anomaly Membrane] as easily as before, but he hadn't expected to meet resistance this time.

The [Anomaly Membrane] seemed thicker than before!

His sword actually couldn't pierce it!

Could it be... he'd been holding back, too?

While Ox Seat stood stunned, the Ice Blade that had shattered earlier turned in midair as if controlled by an unseen hand, becoming a rain of shards that swept toward him.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

Ox Seat had paid no attention to the shards.

But when the first one shot toward him at incredible speed and pierced straight through his wrist, Ox Seat's eyes flew wide open.

Only then did he realize these shards weren't just fragments of the Ice Blade. Fang Yue was controlling them, turning them into sharp hidden weapons!

The dense shards swept toward his entire body like a meteor shower.

Every shard was infused with Fang Yue's surging inner force, giving it astonishing power.

Pssht, pssht, pssht, pssht, pssht, pssht—

Each shard that struck Ox Seat's body made him twitch.

The dense barrage left his entire body riddled with holes, blood spraying everywhere, as if he'd been hit by a machine gun.

Ox Seat tried to fight back, tried to summon his inner force to defend himself.

But in the [Still World], his thoughts could race, while his body couldn't keep up.

Worse, the moment the first shard pierced his body, the icy power of the Ice Condensation Mind Method had already begun to invade him, slowing even his thoughts.

Only when the final shard pierced his body did his eyes widen. His inner force erupted, blasting everything
