He held back no longer, his sinister aura surging, the sinister fire on his black longsword burning ever brighter. He poured all his cultivation into the sword, unleashing his strongest attack on the Snow Empress— " Black Baleful Yin Fire Slash." A massive black sword aura, carrying raging sinister fire, hurtled towards the Snow Empress. Wherever the sword aura passed, a huge crack was scorched in the ground, and sinister aura permeated the air, almost engulfing the entire plaza.
Snow Empress's expression was solemn. She could sense that the power of this attack was extremely strong. If she were to take it head-on, even with the protection of the Emperor Bell, she would suffer considerable injuries. But she did not back down, because she knew that if she did, not only would she be in danger, but Qingyunzi would also be in dire straits, and the last fragment of the Emperor Bell would be snatched away by General Black Fiend. She took a deep breath and poured all the Ziwei Power in her dantian into the Emperor Bell Emperor Bell, while also merging her own essence blood into it. The power of the Emperor Bell instantly increased to its peak. The bell shone with dazzling purple light, exuding an awe-inspiring imperial might, as if it could suppress the entire world.
" Ziwei Emperor Bell, suppress!" the Snow Empress roared, manipulating the Emperor Bell to smash towards the black sword energy. "Boom!" With a deafening roar, the Emperor Bell collided with the black sword energy. The purple light and black yin fire annihilated each other, and the powerful shockwave swept across the entire square. The ice sculptures on the square were instantly shattered, huge cracks appeared on the ground, and the accumulated snow was stirred up, forming a massive snowstorm.
Snow Empress felt a powerful force rush towards her, her throat tasted sweet, and she spat out a mouthful of blood. Her body flew backward involuntarily, crashing heavily into the ice wall at the edge of the plaza, instantly creating a huge crack in the ice wall. She struggled to stand up, but found herself powerless. The Emperor Bell in her dantian also vibrated slightly, its light dimming a bit, clearly indicating that she had overexerted herself.
General Black Fiend was also badly affected. He was forced back three steps by the recoil of the Emperor Bell, a trickle of black blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, and his sinister aura weakened somewhat. However, the fierceness in his eyes remained undiminished. He looked at the Snow Empress, who was struggling to stand up, and sneered, " Saintess Snow Empress, you are indeed very powerful, actually able to withstand my strongest attack. But the game should end now!" With that, he moved and rushed towards the Snow Empress, his black longsword aimed at Snow Empress chest, intending to kill her with a single blow.
"Holy Maiden, be careful!" Qingyunzi's eyes flashed with fear upon seeing this scene. He wanted to rush over to protect the Snow Empress, but he was entangled by several black-clad men at the Third Transformation of Dragon Transformation and could not break free. He could only exert all his strength to unleash a cyan sword aura, slashing towards General Black Fiend in an attempt to stop his attack. However, the sword aura was dispersed by General Black Fiend General Black Fiend with a wave of his hand before it even reached him.
As the black sword drew ever closer, a flicker of despair crossed Snow Empress's eyes. Was she destined to die here? Was the Emperor Bell beyond repair, the Underworld's conspiracy unstoppable, and the world plunged into misery? No, she could not die! She still had a mission to complete; she still had to protect the world, repair the Emperor Bell, and prevent the ancient evil god from awakening!
At this critical moment, the Emperor Bell in the Snow Empress's dantian suddenly trembled violently, resonating even more strongly with the last fragment in the center of the plaza. Purple light surged from the fragment, and a purple beam shot out from it, flying towards the Snow Empress. At the same time, a purple beam also shot out from the Emperor Bell, intertwining with the beam from the fragment to form a huge purple light shield that enveloped the Snow Empress.
"Clang!" The black longsword struck the purple light barrier with a crisp, loud sound. The barrier trembled slightly but remained intact. A hint of surprise flashed in General Black Fiend's eyes. He hadn't expected that the last fragment would actively protect the Snow Empress. "Damn it!" he roared, swinging the black longsword again and thrusting it towards the purple light barrier, trying to break it and kill the Snow Empress.
But at this moment, the fragment was slowly flying towards Snow Empress, getting closer and closer. Snow Empress could feel that the fragment contained incomparably pure Ziwei Power, and that power was Perfect World compatible with the Emperor Bell in her dantian. Without hesitation, she circulated the last of her Ziwei Power and guided the fragment towards the Emperor Bell in her dantian.
"Buzz!" The fragment fell into her dantian and Perfect World merged with the Emperor Bell. Instantly, an extremely powerful Ziwei Power surged out from the Emperor Bell, sweeping over the Snow Empress's entire body. Her injuries were instantly healed, her blood and qi were restored to normal, and even her cultivation level broke through again at this moment, reaching the Dragon Transformation Fifth Transformation! The last crack on the Emperor Bell disappeared, and the bell turned completely purple, its purple light blazing, exuding an awe-inspiring imperial might, as if it could shake the heavens and earth and suppress all evil spirits.
"This... how is this possible!" General Black Fiend looked at the changes in Snow Empress, a trace of horror flashing in his eyes. He never expected that Snow Empress would break through her cultivation at this time, and that the Emperor Bell would be completely repaired. He could feel that the repaired Emperor Bell was emitting an incomparably powerful pressure, making his whole body cold and even making it difficult to breathe.
The Snow Empress slowly rose to her feet, her body enveloped in blazing Ziwei Emperor Qi. The repaired Emperor Bell hovered above her head, its chimes ringing out with powerful divine force, pressing down on General Black Fiend and the men in black. Feeling the pressure of the Emperor Bell, the men in black trembled with fear, unable to even grip their weapons. Some even knelt on the ground, unable to move.
" General Black Fiend, do you think you can seize the fragments of the Emperor Bell and achieve your conspiracy with just a bunch of wicked villains?" The Snow Empress's voice was cold and majestic, echoing throughout the entire square. "Today, I will act on behalf of Heaven to eliminate you scourges and let you know that the righteous path cannot be deceived, and the world cannot be thrown into chaos!"
Having said that, the Snow Empress manipulated the Emperor Bell and hurled it towards General Black Fiend. The Emperor Bell, radiating a blazing purple light, moved with incredible speed, arriving before General Black Fiend General Black Fiend's eyes. He tried to dodge, but found himself locked in place by the Emperor Bell's oppressive power, unable to move. He could only muster all his strength, channeling the Yin and evil energy within his body, and thrust his black longsword towards the Emperor Bell in a final act of resistance.
With a deafening clang, the Emperor Bell clashed with the black longsword, shattering it instantly. The powerful force blasted towards General Black Fiend. General Black Fiend let out a shrill scream as the sinister aura surrounding him was instantly annihilated by the Emperor Bell's divine power. His body was also shattered into pieces, turning into a wisp of black smoke that dissipated into the air, marking his complete demise.
The remaining men in black, witnessing the fall of General Black Fiend, were terrified and lost all will to fight. They turned and tried to flee the Kunlun Ruins.
