Shui Bing'er Unleashes Her Presence
"No, they're evenly matched. Shui Bing'er's attacks are actually holding her own against Ling Yuan Douluo. Isn't that a bit exaggerated? You have to remember, that's a genuine Titled Douluo..."
As fellow fire-attribute Soul Master, Yan often consulted Ling Yuan Douluo when he encountered problems or bottlenecks in his cultivation. Although Ling Yuan Douluo had a somewhat unpleasant personality and always liked to tease him, Yan knew her strength better than anyone else. Watching the scene of ice blue and crimson colliding in the sky, he couldn't help but think that if it were him, he would probably be defeated by Shui Bing'er in an instant.
"No, it's not a stalemate. Shui Bing'er's Soul Skill can continue to be infused with Soul Power, and its staying power is much stronger than Ling Yuan Douluo's off-hand Soul Skill. Look closely, the Extreme Freezing Ray is gradually gaining the upper hand."
Xie Yue, being a speed-type Soul Master, immediately saw the crux of the problem. As Shui Bing'er continuously poured Soul Power into the icy blue pillar of light, the head of the giant firebird was swallowed up. It was like a thousand-mile dike collapsing in an instant. In a very short time, the giant firebird was turned into an ice sculpture, which then crashed to the ground with a "bang," sending up bursts of flying ice shards.
"She still dodged, which puts Ling Yuan Douluo at a disadvantage in terms of momentum. How could Shui Bing'er's strength be so terrifying? How could she suppress the flames of Titled Douluo? Right, Soul Power. She kept pouring Soul Power into this attack, so she must have consumed a lot of Soul Power by now."
Hu Liena is currently the strongest of the three, but even she, with her Divine Slaughter's Domain, wonders if she could achieve the same level of power after reaching the Soul Saint realm. The answer is no, she couldn't...
"Not bad, very fast. No wonder you're Titled Douluo."
When Shui Bing'er saw Ling Yuan transform into a ball of sparks and reappear in another place, a charming smile appeared on her lips. Although her words were meant to be complimentary, it was easy to tell from her status and tone that she was actually mocking her.
"Be elegant, stay elegant. So many people are watching. Don't let her anger you; it would be embarrassing and unsightly."
Ling Yuan Douluo's ample bosom heaved with anger, her alluring eyes fixed on the leisurely Shui Bing'er. Seeing her mocking gaze and posture, as well as her infuriating words, she suppressed her rage and kept reminding herself.
"It must have been really tough on Ling Yuan. Let alone being a fire-attribute Soul Master, even I would have been unable to hold back in this situation..."
Gui Mei was a calm and collected person, and his Martial Soul was inherently dark. However, seeing the fire-attribute Soul Master, who was known for her temper, endure Shui Bing'er's mockery, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Young lady, if you're hoping to gain some verbal advantage and recover your Soul Power, I advise you to abandon that idea. That attack just now must have consumed a lot of your Soul Power. I'd like to see how long you, a mere Soul Saint, can last against me. Fifth Soul Skill: Vermilion Bird Transformation; Fourth Soul Skill: Fire Sparrows Fluttering!"
Ling Yuan Douluo's Fifth Soul Skill is a transformation-type amplification Soul Skill that is most needed by Power Attack System Soul Master. After activation, it can greatly increase attack power, defense power, and flame intensity.
At this moment, she transformed into a human-shaped Vermilion Bird, wearing a suit of flame armor. Her Martial Soul Avatar was also clad in flame armor, and then instantly transformed into small Fire Sparrow, flying towards Shui Bing'er.
"Hmph, with your personality, being a fire-attribute Soul Master is a waste of your talent. However, don't judge me with your shallow understanding. Do you think I need to waste time talking to you and stall for time to recover my Soul Power? Ignorant..."
Over the past five years, Shui Bing'er has not only made the fastest progress in strength among all the girls in the Skywater Academy, but she has also entered the Ice and Snow Secret Realm the most times. This is because she urgently needs to improve her strength. She doesn't want Yu Tianshuang to always bear everything alone anymore. She wants to face everything with him, and even want him to stay behind her.
Therefore, to outsiders, including Ling Yuan Douluo, this attack appeared to have consumed a large amount of her Soul Power. However, when the attacks collided, she was quite surprised; it was much easier than she had imagined...
On second thought, it's actually quite easy to explain. Ice and fire are inherently mutually restraining; either you suppress me, or I freeze you. Shui Bing'er's Ultimate Ice is capable of suppressing the Ice Jade Scorpion, so facing a flame of the level of Ling Yuan Douluo is a piece of cake.
"Fourth Soul Skill: Extreme Cold Vortex, First Soul Skill: Ice Seal!"
Faced with the overwhelming swarm of Fire Sparrow descending from the sky, Shui Bing'er's beautiful face remained completely expressionless. She slightly turned her palm up, facing the sky, and soon a surge of Soul Power condensed in her palm, creating a miniature Ice and Snow Vortex.
Watching the Fire Sparrow soaring through the sky, obscuring the heavens and turning the entire world into a fiery landscape, Shui Bing'er slowly raised her hand and threw the miniature Ice and Snow Vortex in her hand towards the fiery sky composed of countless Fire Sparrow.
Soon, the Ice and Snow Vortex that Shui Bing'er threw out grew rapidly, transforming into a gigantic Ice and Snow Vortex in the sky within moments. It drew in all the Fire Sparrow flying around. "Crack..." The freezing sound quickly became continuous, and the Fire Sparrow fell from the center of the icy Ice and Snow Vortex like hailstones. Shui Bing'er also swiftly unleashed an Ice Seal move, freezing the Ling Yuan Douluo's true form, which had transformed into one of the Fire Sparrow.
"Bang..."
Despite being Titled Douluo, even though Shui Bing'er's Ice Seal possessed the attributes of Soul Skill Locking and Ultimate Ice, it was still only her First Soul Skill, and her Soul Power output had a limit. Unlike Yu Tianshuang and Huo Wu, who could infinitely increase their Soul Power output limit through Ring Fusion, Ling Yuan Douluo still managed to break free from the frozen state thanks to her Soul Power, which was equivalent to that of a Titled Douluo.
"Ultimate, Ultimate Ice? I should have realized it sooner. Only Ultimate Ice could suppress my flames with ice at the Soul Saint level. I am, after all, a fire-attribute Soul Master. If it were anyone else, they would have realized it the moment they saw your Martial Soul..."
Ling Yuan Douluo was in a very disheveled state. Her black leather jacket was covered in water stains from the melting ice. Fortunately, she was wearing leather, so her underwear wasn't exposed. However, her smooth black hair was dripping wet, and a few strands clung tightly to her cheeks, making her look as if she had just been rescued from the water.
"What? You have a problem with that? Your Pope sent you, a fire-attribute Soul Master, to fight me. You and I both know what she's thinking. And you're acting all surprised right now, it's too embarrassing..."
Shui Bing'er raised an eyebrow Lengleng, glanced subtly at Bibi Dong below, and then responded with great domineering confidence.
"This little girl..."
As a level 99 Peerless Douluo, even though she couldn't unleash her full strength due to the Rakshasa God Trial, Bibi Dong still caught Shui Bing'er's contemptuous glance. She immediately clenched her scepter, gritted her teeth in anger, and glared fiercely at Yu Tianshuang, who was standing next to Hu Liena, watching the Yu Tianshuang.
"I admit, I underestimated you. But if you think you can really win, then you're seriously underestimating me, and you're seriously underestimating Titled Douluo. Ninth Soul Skill: Southern Brightness Li Fire Break!"
In fact, Ling Yuan's family is also a long-established Soul Master family. Back then, their Martial Soul was not the Fire Sparrow, but the true Vermilion Bird, a top-level fire attribute Beast Martial Soul on par with the Fire Phoenix. Their ancestors had even produced Titled Douluo of level 95 or higher. At that time, their family, along with the Nine Heavens Rainbow Phoenix Clan, one of the Lower Three Sects, were known as the two strongest fire attribute families in the Soul Master World. However, with the thinning of their bloodline, by Ling Yuan's generation, their Martial Soul had degenerated into the Fire Sparrow.
"This move is the last trump card of Titled Douluo, and also my strongest attack. Shui Bing'er, I'm warning you beforehand, even I can't fully control the power of this move. You can still admit defeat now, otherwise..."
At this moment, Ling Yuan Douluo gripped the back of her other hand with one hand, and blazing flames gathered in her palm. The area affected by Shui Bing'er's domain and Martial Soul slowly melted. One could imagine how terrifying the fire power contained in this move was, capable of melting the ice surface created by Shui Bing'er's Ultimate Ice and domain. She looked at Shui Bing'er, who still seemed indifferent and arrogant, and although she was displeased, she still spoke up to remind her.
"It's alright, just use whatever tricks you have up your sleeve."
Shui Bing'er waved her hand, shook her head slightly, and responded with an air of authority. This powerful aura, combined with Shui Bing'er tall figure and cold, aloof face, made Yu Tianshuang below feel a surge of heat in her heart. She couldn't help but exclaim, "Senior Sister is so cool, so domineering..."
"Since that's the case, then I don't need to hold back anymore. Anyway, with Lengleng around, you won't die..."
Shui Bing'er's demeanor and words once again stung Ling Yuan Douluo. Anyway, the Spirit Hall had the successor of the Nine Heart Begonia, and His Holiness the Pope watching the battle. As long as he didn't die, he would be fine. He immediately unleashed the scorching flames he had gathered in his hand, aimed his palm at Shui Bing'er, and pushed forward with a jolt. A crimson flame cannon shot towards Shui Bing'er like a shooting star streaking across the sky, carrying the power to incinerate everything.
However, Hu Liena's eyes lit up with a strange look upon hearing this. She Lengleng glared at her... She'd been Huo Wu away by that girl Huo Wu and hadn't returned yet...
"Is this what it means to be worthy of the strength of Titled Douluo...?"
Shui Bing'er watched as the giant fire cannon launched by Ling Yuan Douluo melted away the ice surface she had transformed into as it attacked her. She nodded in satisfaction, then slowly extended a fair and slender arm, palm down, and pressed down sharply.
Sixth Soul Skill: Burial!
As Shui Bing'er pressed down with her hand and her sexy, round lips parted slightly, the ice that had been frozen on the battlefield where she fought Ling Yuan Douluo was melted by Southern Brightness Li Fire Break Po. However, when Shui Bing'er pressed down with her delicate hand, the ice instantly re-frozen.
The suffocating cold also swept over the onlookers. Even though everyone present was a powerful figure at the Soul Emperor level or above, they were still inevitably affected and their breath caught in their throats slightly.
The Ling Yuan Douluo in the arena was most deeply affected. She was astonished to see that when Shui Bing'er pressed her small hand down, everything in front of her seemed to slow down and become blurry. The attack that contained all her Soul Power turned into shards of ice in mid-air. She couldn't help but look down in horror and found that, without her noticing, terrifying frost had already engulfed her. Now, apart from her consciousness, even her blood and Soul Power were frozen.
"Hiss..."
This scene was both terrifying and eerie. What they saw was this: the giant cannon, carrying surging fiery power, was frozen into a cylindrical ice sculpture the instant Shui Bing'er's small hand gently pressed down. Then it shattered, turning into hailstones that fell down. At the same time, Ling Yuan Douluo, who had reached out to attack Shui Bing'er, was also frozen in an instant without warning.
