Ice God Spear!
Countless currents of cold spread outward, forming a colossal spear nearly a thousand feet long that crushed the scattered chunks of ice ahead.
"Gah!"
Vali had only just broken free when he suffered another devastating blow.
His white armor was completely stained red with blood.
His entire body...
Was sent flying straight backward.
At the same time...
Countless ice crystals began forming on his body, spreading over him.
"No, I can't let this go on."
Vali gritted his teeth hard. The White Dragon Emperor's wings of light shone brilliantly as he tried to resist the encroaching cold.
"Just one last strike."
Esdeath took a step forward, the aura surrounding her becoming vast and majestic.
"Mahapadma."
Without a sound...
The wind stilled and the clouds stopped, leaving the entire world utterly silent.
Everyone had stopped moving.
No!
More precisely...
There were still two people moving.
"As expected of Master and that Infinite Dragon God. My technique has absolutely no effect on them."
Watching the two figures locked in fierce combat in the distance, Esdeath sighed in admiration.
Ultimately...
Her technique merely froze space and time.
It did not truly stop time.
In fact...
She suspected that even if she genuinely stopped time...
It would have no effect whatsoever on Master or that Infinite Dragon God.
The gap between their strength was simply too vast.
Even against Vali here...
Had he not already been gravely injured...
She would not have used this trump card so readily.
But now...
It was time to settle the outcome in a single move.
Whoosh!
Her figure flickered, and she appeared before Vali.
She hesitated briefly.
In the end, she did not strike to kill.
After all, with the situation completely under her control, killing someone who could at least be considered an ally...
