Just as Qi Ling ascended into the sky, Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er's attacks were about to miss. But at that moment, the highly compressed energy formed by ice and fire transformed into a Phoenix composed of ice and fire, complete in form and spirit, soaring through the air.
At the same time, Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er reappeared, both pale-faced but unable to hide their excitement.
"We did it, Bing'er! We finally succeeded!" Huo Wu exclaimed joyfully. "After so many attempts, we finally succeeded this time! Go, Flame Ice Phoenix, teach that guy a lesson!"
Meanwhile, Shui Bing'er said worriedly, " Huo Wu, isn't this a bit inappropriate? What if its power is too great and it kills Qi Ling?"
"Oh, don't worry about that guy. Didn't he say that in a battle, you have to go all out and fight to the death?" Huo Wu said. "Now let's see how he handles it!"
Having broken free from the two, the Flame Ice Phoenix let out a cry and charged towards Qi Ling. Qi Ling hurriedly dodged in mid-air, but compared to its enormous body, the small Flame Ice Phoenix undoubtedly had the advantage.
After dodging left and right, and nearly being caught by the Flame Ice Phoenix several times, Qi Ling realized something was wrong. Although this thing looked small, it undoubtedly possessed immense power. If she tried to withstand it head-on, she might really be seriously injured.
"There's no other way, I have to use that trick. I never thought I'd be forced to this point," Qi Ling thought helplessly. "You should all be proud of yourself for going this far!"
So, to everyone's astonishment, Qi Ling descended vertically from the sky, rapidly heading towards the ground. Behind him, the Flame Ice Phoenix followed closely, also rushing towards the ground with him.
"What's this guy trying to do? Lure the Flame Ice Phoenix to the ground and then let it detonate on its own?" Huo Wu said. "If that's the case, isn't he underestimating us? The Flame Ice Phoenix won't be so easily dodged."
"Perhaps Qi Ling wants to use us as a shield to force you to dispel the Flame Ice Phoenix?" Feng Xiaotian said. "This is the best idea I can think of."
"No, Huo Wu, Feng Xiaotian, Qi Ling's target isn't the ground, nor is it anyone," Shui Bing'er said, looking at the ground. "His target is these!"
The group looked down at the ground and saw the Blood Sea that Shui Bing'er had previously Ice Seal! The sea of the Blood Sea had not disappeared after being Ice Seal, but had remained in this solid state.
Shui Bing'er guessed correctly; these were exactly what Qi Ling was looking for! His massive body collided violently with the ground, shattering the Ice Seal Blood Sea. The instant the Ice Seal was broken, the sea of the Blood Sea immediately returned to its original form, transforming into a red ocean.
Then, something shocking happened! Enveloped in the sea of the Blood Sea, Qi Ling instantly reverted to the Blood Devil Slays Heaven state, then immersed herself in the Blood Sea, actually Blood Sea with it!
At that moment, the Flame Ice Phoenix in the sky also arrived on the ground, but its target changed from Qi Ling to this vast sea of blood!
These crimson seas of the Blood Sea surged into the sky, enveloping the Flame Ice Phoenix tightly at its center, then transforming into a gigantic water sphere, as if it had swallowed the Flame Ice Phoenix whole.
" Blood Sea: Devour!"
This is Qi Ling's Sixth Soul Skill: Blood Sea, one of its inherent abilities, which can devour the energy of anything it envelops! This is an amplified version of the Blood Devil Emperor's passive skill, and also the original attribute of the Blood Pool.
However, to maximize the Blood Sea's devouring power, there is a requirement: Qi Ling must merge with the Blood Sea and use the Blood Devil Emperor's true form to directly unleash the devouring power, which would achieve an astonishing level.
The Flame Ice Phoenix, swallowed by the Blood Sea, instantly triggered a massive explosion. The conflict between the two energies of ice and fire unleashed unimaginable power, causing the Blood Sea to expand more than tenfold in an instant.
At the same time, Qi Ling, who had transformed into the Blood Sea, was also using his greatest devouring ability to resist this power. If he could absorb it successfully, he could neutralize the attack; but if his absorption rate could not keep up, he would be seriously injured.
As it turned out, this power still did not exceed Qi Ling's limit. When the spherical shape formed by the Blood Sea continued to expand and was about to burst, Qi Ling finally controlled it, and the Blood Sea itself began to gradually shrink.
After all, the Blood Sea back then carried the energy of an entire city. No matter how strong Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er were, they couldn't compare to an entire city.
The gradually stabilizing Blood Sea began to contract in a certain pattern, like a beating heart, pulsating at an extremely regular frequency, and with each beat, it would shrink by one size.
Finally, the Blood Sea transformed back into human form, revealing Qi Ling's appearance. At this moment, Qi Ling felt as if she had just eaten a huge meal and was about to vomit, which was enough to show how astonishing the attack had been.
"Are you guys still going to compete?" Qi Ling said. "To be honest, that attack just now was beyond my expectations. I already felt like my life was in danger."
"So, if you insist on continuing the competition, I won't hold back!" Qi Ling said, as several black tentacles rose from his left hand, twisting and turning in the air, looking quite frightening.
Looking at these bizarre-looking things, Huo Wu blushed and said, "You, you're despicable! Who knows what you're planning to do with these things!"
"What? Do nothing? But if you don't surrender, I can't guarantee anything!" Qi Ling laughed.
"Damn it! Okay, okay, we surrender! You win!" Huo Wu said reluctantly. "Honestly, you're still as strong as ever! Are you even human?"
"There aren't many Soul Beast as strong as me," Qi Ling said with a smile.
Upon receiving news of Qi Ling's victory, Ma Hongjun laughed heartily and immediately shouted, "Long live Shrek Academy! Long live Qi Ling!"
The Shrek Academy students around them excitedly joined Ma Hongjun in shouting, their cheers echoing throughout every corner of the Shrek Academy, deafening everyone.
The students of the Four Elements Academy all looked dejected. After all, they had come with high hopes, but as expected, this man was simply unbeatable.
"Alright, now that we're done fighting, let's find a place to sit down and talk about the Shrek Academy," Qi Ling said. "The principal isn't here, and it's not appropriate for us to go to the dean's office, so let's go to the student council room first."
Everyone arrived at the student council room and took their seats. Qi Ling sat in the main seat in the center, while the others sat on either side, and no one objected.
