Guan Yu knew that for Zhuge Qing's blood energy to reach such terrifying heights, he must have used the Eight Gates Technique-perhaps even opened the final gate.
Something must have happened over there for that youngster Zhuge Qing to fight so desperately.
"Partner, we need to hurry. Lend me more sacred spirit power. I can withstand it," Guan Yu communicated with Azure Dragon through his will.
"Are you sure? Any more, and you'll suffer serious injuries." Azure Dragon was taken aback. The current amount of sacred spirit power maintained a perfect balance. Any more, and his host would be unable to withstand it.
"Do it." Guan Yu drew a deep breath. Feeling the power surging through his body, he looked at the Snow Monster King and roared, "Azure Dragon Crescent Slash!"
An enormous azure dragon flew from the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, raging wildly.
Guan Yu leaped onto the azure dragon's back and charged straight toward the Snow Monster King with it.
The Snow Monster King condensed a massive snowball in front of itself, hoping to block the strike.
Looking disdainfully at the snowball before the Snow Monster King, Guan Yu gathered all his strength and slashed down hard.
The azure dragon's attack that the Snow Monster King had anticipated never came.
The instant they neared the Snow Monster King, the azure dragon plunged back into the crescent blade.
"Azure Dragon Thirteen Strikes!"
Strike after strike fell upon the same spot on the snowball. On the sixth slash, the snowball split open.
As Guan Yu's battle with the Snow Monster King grew fiercer, the pressure radiating from him rose higher and higher. By the tenth strike, the Snow Monster King was struggling to fend him off.
Yet Guan Yu had locked down its escape routes, leaving it nowhere to retreat.
