Chapter 1736: Chapter 1314: Battle Against Six Rings (Part 2)
The Sun Furnace itself can use Yang Fire to heal injuries, and now, relying on the Fire Source Holy Pearl, a vast expanse of Yang Fire is rapidly transformed, fiercely burning to reshape the furnace!
Fang Qingxiao’s divine power was exhausted. If he truly waited for the Fire Ring to be repaired, it would be difficult to deal with the Fire Ring again.
However, Fang Qingxiao did not rush to act, but suddenly laughed and said, "How do you know I haven’t made any preparations?"
Almost simultaneously, as demonic energy surged, a figure suddenly appeared behind the Fire Ring, raised his hand, and struck it with a palm.
"Yellow Springs Reverse Flow, Human World Reversal!"
Runes flickered, curse seals descended, and vast amounts of demonic energy, accompanied by the mighty Yellow Springs Water, entangled the Fire Ring.
In an instant, the Yang Fire on the Fire Ring that was originally healing injuries now seemed to turn into a burning poison, instead corroding the Fire Ring’s body.
The Fire Ring’s expression changed drastically, and he turned to look at Ma Liang: "Damn! What is this?"
Ma Liang smiled and said, "It’s nothing but reversing the rules of healing~"
Ma Liang cultivated the Six Paths of the Yellow Springs Demon Technique, wherein the Human World Path controls the power of "Healing Repair," which can heal, prevent healing, and even poison the healing.
If the Fire Ring was at full strength, Ma Liang might not have been able to restrain him.
But now...
The Fire Ring, already severely injured and on the brink of death from Fang Qingxiao’s heavy blows, was only prolonging his life through the rapid self-healing powered by the Fire Source Pearl, unable to withstand the tactics of Ma Liang in his home territory.
At this moment, the Fire Ring was forced to halt Yang Fire healing, but with the curse seal entwined, Jun Tian True Fire and Yang Fire burned together, irreversibly, and within moments turned to ashes in the black water...
The Fire Ring, perished.
Fang Qingxiao exhaled lightly in relief.
However, as Ma Liang looked at the site of the Fire Ring’s demise, he found no Star Core left behind.
But... this had no effect on him.
Ma Liang’s eyes were bright as he turned and looked at Fang Qingxiao, cupping his hands, "Human World Path’s Ma Liang, greetings to Fang Yu."
Fang Qingxiao retrieved the Qiankun Ring, returned the gesture, and said, "Friend Ma, excellent tactics."
In fact, Ma Liang had long secretly revealed his existence and abilities to Fang Qingxiao, hence Fang Qingxiao used this as a strategy, leaving no holds barred to deliver a fatal blow to the Fire Ring.
Unexpectedly, the opponent still had the Fire Source Holy Pearl as a backup, yet Ma Liang managed to handle it successfully.
"Fang Yu is too kind; I merely added the finishing touch, defeating this foe was all due to Your Grace’s power." Ma Liang smiled slightly, raising his hand to spread out a pitch-black vortex, "Fang Yu may rest here for a moment before leaving."
Fang Qingxiao nodded, "Very well."
Ma Liang’s figure flickered and disappeared from the spot.
At the core of the Six Paths Demon Statue, lies the barrier map of the Six Paths of the Yellow Springs, and on the outskirts, statues of six different demon gods stand in each corner of the barrier, representing the Heavenly God, Hell, Asura, Human World, Beast, and Hungry Ghost.
Ma Liang reappeared, slightly admiring, "This Fang Yu, nearly defeated the Fire Ring, which had invoked its divine arts, relying solely on his strength, with a decisive and fierce combat style, yet still cautious..."
Ma Liang was contemplating when the Human World Demon Statue in front surged with large black qi, the Demon Map Barrier slightly lit up, and then a mass of scorching soul energy gathered.
"This avatar of the Fire Ring left no Star Core, yet possesses such abundant soul energy, what an interesting method..."
Ma Liang looked up with excitement at the soul energy before him, but his eyes flickered as he did not immediately absorb it, instead casting his gaze to another space.
...
The cold ice connects to the sky, the frost spreads a thousand miles.
The once demonic and dim world had now turned into a vast ice field.
"Ice Sealed New Star!"
With a chillingly cold voice, a terrifying icy light exploded between heaven and earth like a white sun, instantly turning miles of void into a gigantic ice sphere filled with frost runes!
And within it, two figures, unable to dodge, were frozen by the ice star, namely Luo Bingtong and Hua Tiandu.
"Can you escape?" Ice Ring stood atop the massive stellar ice like a meteor, looking down at the two frozen below, "Burn up, Red Flame!"
Within the ice star, dense red light surged, red beams erupted, and rampant spirit light unleashed a scorching heat capable of melting and burning everything solid!
"Two mere figures below the Ninth Stage, dare stand against me?" Ice Ring sneered.
In Ice Ring’s view, opponents below the Ninth Stage were hardly worth attention, let alone these two who were neither the Great Flame Master nor sect leaders, merely two nameless nobodies, how could they possibly withstand the burning of his Red Ice.
But a second, two seconds, three seconds...
Several seconds passed, and Ice Ring frowned, "What is happening?"
To see within the Red Flame-red-lit Ice Sealed New Star, neither of the two bore any signs of being burned!
Upon closer inspection, each seemed to harbor an extreme cold and extreme heat energy within their bodies, blocking the extraordinary high temperatures of the Red Ice from their surfaces.
It was then that the icy exterior around Luo Bingtong suddenly began to flow like water, clearly within the solid ice star, yet enveloping Luo Bingtong like a fish swimming towards the outside!
Simultaneously, Hua Tiandu’s pupils abruptly turned a dazzling golden hue; a brilliantly radiant golden fire burst forth, embodying a sun-like aura of imposing flames that at once overpowered the terrifying high temperatures of the Red Ice, melting it layer by layer, then soaring into the sky!
In a matter of moments, the duo escaped from the great divine power wielded by the Ice Ring, one surrounded by water-like ice, the other radiant as the fierce sun, jointly staring down at Ice Ring from on high.
Ice Ring arched an eyebrow, "Mystic Ice, Divine Fire?"
Hua Tiandu scoffed coldly, "Ice is simply ice, how dare it attempt to reverse the Heavenly Gang and burn the Great Sun True Yang?"
Luo Bingtong said nothing much, the taciturn girl never had much to say to her enemies, her eyes bore only coldness.
"Oh, is that so?" Ice Ring curled a sinister smile, "Even with Ice and Fire Divine Items, you think the two of you can contend with me?"
As she spoke, Ice Ring clapped both hands, "Shatter!"
"Crack, crack, crack...!"
The ten-mile-wide Ice Sealed New Star beneath their feet cracked into innumerable fissures, and with a "boom," shattered into tens of thousands of Red Flame streaming ice shards, whistling and raging like blistering meteors towards Luo Bingtong and Hua Tiandu in mid-air!
This offensive mimicked a natural disaster, colossal in power and unavoidable.
Luo Bingtong slightly raised her head, a brilliant blue light shone in her right eye, revealing an Ice Seed Bodhi Flower blooming within.
"Bodhi Ice Sky Venerate!"
With cold gleams flickering, countless Ten Thousand Transformation Xuan Ice surged from behind her, transforming into the Dharma Aspect of a Heavenly Venerate wielding a Bodhi Blade.
Ice as skin and jade as garment, this Dharma Aspect of a Heavenly Venerate bore a jade face and elegant form, its expression indifferent, exuding an immensely cold and profound aura that was unfathomable.
This was no ordinary divine ability, but a Star Device’s power, precisely the Ice Treasure—Ice Seed Bodhi Tree that Su Yuan gave to Luo Bingtong back then!
Over the years, Luo Bingtong always nurtured this tree with the Power of Time, and with the aid of the Sunrise Sunset One Year Array, she had long since enhanced this treasure from its previous millennium age, successfully upgrading it to a Legendary Holy Artifact!
The Heavenly Venerate Dharma Form wielded the Bodhi Blade condensed with Ten Thousand Transformation Xuan Ice, unleashing fierce and chilling Sword Qi that vertically shot out, cutting through countless Red Flame ice shards, and slicing them apart like moonlight cutting through decaying wood.
Beside her, Hua Tiandu opened his arms, Fire Light revolving as nine great Suns circled outside his body, having evidently also trained the Nine Yang True Technique to the Ninth Grade.
Unlike Master Yunhua’s red sun, the eight Suns Hua Tiandu cultivated shone brilliantly and dazzlingly like pure gold, with power possibly a whole notch more intense!
Nine Suns encircled, imposing and formidable, and though the amount of fragmented ice was vast, crossing into the range of the Nine Suns, they were melted directly, and the internally surging heat couldn’t inflict any damage on the Nine Suns forged by True Sun Fire.
The two each wielded their methods, and the numerous Red Flame fragments of the exploding new star vanished like moths to a flame under their Holy Artifact divine powers, unable to inflict any harm!
Ice Ring slightly frowned, "Oh? Quite competent."
For mere figures not yet at the Ninth Stage to repeatedly withstand her assaults, it caught Ice Ring somewhat off guard.
The crux was that neither Ten Thousand Transformation Xuan Ice nor True Sun Fire feared the scorching heat of Red Flame Mysterious Ice, which effectively paralyzed one of Ice Ring’s arms, and drastically weakened the destructive power of all her attacks.
