He Pingsheng's heavy punch smashed the Earth Immortal straight underground.
But a sweep of his Divine Sense revealed that the deacon elder still wasn't dead.
Sickening!
Earth Immortals were so fucking tenacious!
"Just... die..."
Without the slightest hesitation, He Pingsheng drew out the Primordial Purple Gold Staff again, aimed one end at the deacon elder buried underground, and thrust it down hard.
However!
The next moment, the deacon elder opened his mouth and spat out a pure white ice pearl.
The ice pearl was small, only about the size of a jujube, yet it spread a white barrier.
The barrier was immensely powerful. No matter what He Pingsheng did, he could not drive the Primordial Purple Gold Staff in his hands any farther down.
Rumble...
Vast energy exploded, blasting away several dozen feet of earth.
The Earth Immortal emerged from underground, panting heavily. "He Pingsheng... I was careless just now!"
"I..."
"I still have many immortal arts I haven't used!"
"If I used my immortal arts, you would undoubtedly die!"
"Just... die..."
The deacon elder roared and formed seals with both hands. Spell after spell flowed from his hands, and a dense, mighty Ice Attribute aura surged toward He Pingsheng.
In an instant, the world around them became a boundless expanse of whirling ice and snow.
Amid the endless flying snow, countless Ice Thorns formed from ice cones flew toward He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng had nowhere to dodge!
He could only whirl the staff in his hands so tightly that not even wind could pass through, shattering the incoming Ice Thorns.
Unfortunately, it could not block everything.
Many Ice Thorns still pierced his defenses and stabbed into his body.
Fortunately, He Pingsheng cultivated the Chaos Golden Scripture, and his body's strength and resilience far surpassed those of ordinary Immortals. Even
