Su Wanqian abruptly pressed his palms together, and his absolute cold proto-rule erupted on an unprecedented scale.
The entire square froze into a silver-white world of ice and snow in an instant. The buildings, ground, and even the mist drifting through the air within several hundred meters solidified into hard ice crystals under this attack.
Hall had only just shattered the ice spreading beneath his feet when Su Wanqian stepped before him and struck with his palm.
The power of absolute cold slammed like a solid mass into the Rot Shield Hall hastily formed. The rot power on its surface became utterly brittle under the freezing cold, and the shield shattered after holding out for barely half a breath.
Su Wanqian's palm strike continued unabated, landing squarely on Hall's right arm. His entire arm froze into a pillar of ice in an instant, and the cold spread along his meridians toward his torso.
Hall's expression changed abruptly. Without hesitation, he unleashed his rot proto-rule and shattered his entire frozen right arm at the shoulder.
