Tai Cang's momentum reached its peak, bursting forth with his utmost battle power. He resembled a bolt of lightning, wrapping his entire body's strength within himself as he slashed toward the frozen fireball.
This was the strategy he and Feng Qing had secretly discussed: Feng Qing would seal Si Kongyan in ice, and he would step forward to defeat him.
Seeing this, the crowd shook inwardly, feeling as though they saw the dawn of victory.
Wu Quan in particular had brightened eyes, growing somewhat excited inside. If Feng Qing and Tai Cang won, he could vent the stifled anger in his heart as well.
Only Su Mo wore a calm expression, for he had confidence in Si Kongyan. An attack of this tier was still not enough to defeat him.
Sure enough, before Tai Cang's attack could even strike the frozen fireball, the thick ice upon it erupted with towering white smoke and melted into nothingness in an instant.
Boom!
The fireball's flames surged wildly in an instant, turning into a ten-zhang-wide sphere of fire that filled the entire passageway and directly engulfed Tai Cang and the Ice Phoenix within the flames.
Boom! Rumble-rumble-rumble!
Immediately afterward, the crowd only saw continuous explosive sounds and the relentless vibration of flames coming from within the fireball.
Ah! Ah!
Following closely were the miserable shrieks of Tai Cang and Feng Qing, filled with endless agony.
Seeing this, the crowd shook inwardly once more. It was over!
Hum~~~
At that exact moment, the endless flames instantly receded and vanished without a trace, revealing the figures of Si Kongyan, Feng Qing, and Tai Cang.
However, among the three, only Si Kongyan stood tall and upright in the passageway, while Feng Qing and Tai Cang had both been burned nearly into two lumps of black charcoal
