1133 Darkness Against Ice! (2/2)
”The Dawnbreaker of Darkness!”
As the sword slashed forward, the sky turned dark instantly, yet it felt like a glimpse of daybreak was tearing through it. It was long, sharp, and fast, and the light was icy cold. It did not bring hope like daybreak would, but the despair and hopelessness of an era of darkness!
It was impossible to dodge the attack. The slash did not have a trail, nor was it coming from a certain angle or direction. It would strike the target it was locking onto. Even the Super Mages gasped after realizing how powerful the slash was!
”Arrow of Silence!”
With a soft thrum, the crystalline arrow was fired, followed by a great storm that shook the sky and the ground as it surged forward. It felt like the confined space would collapse at any second!
The storm was powerful and huge, yet completely silent. Everything was turned into ice as the arrow flew past. Even the dark energy had frozen, and was drifting in the air like a mist!
The Arrow of Silence and the Sword Glow of Dawnbreak were incredibly fast. They swept past half the battlefield in the blink of an eye, but neither made a single noise. It was so quiet, as if everything was dead and still...
The arrow was shattered in the light produced by the sword. The light of the sword was also dissipated by the power of the arrow. The darkness looming over the battlefield immediately cleared up, while the ice covering the place melted instantly as if it was never there!
When the crowd thought the two powerful attacks had nullified one another, a white light flickered in the center of the battlefield. A terrifying explosion took place, and strong winds blasted in all directions!
It was impossible to tell where the energy had come from. It was more like black winds and black icy blades, shredding the trees into pieces. Not even the stumps were left. The river at the center turned into pitch-black ice and went still. The rocks and mountains were chewed up beyond recognition, and the cliffs surrounding the battlefield were left with scratches and marks all over them!
Luckily, the overwhelming energy did not rise any further. Otherwise, the people watching the match on the cliffs might be in danger...
The battlefield was the size of a district in a town. If the two powers had collided in a city, every structure in it would be razed to the ground. To think that such destructive powers were produced by two beautiful women. It was absolutely unbelievable!
The place remained silent for a long time, as if everything was frozen by the ice and darkness.
On the destroyed battlefield, Asha'ruiya was still standing firmly in her black armor. She had taken off the silver mask, revealing her stern face. It was nothing like the alluring expression she usually had.
A few snowflakes were circling Mu Ningxue, setting off her unique icy charm. She looked at Asha'ruiya, who was perfectly unharmed. Her face was incredibly pale.
She was still holding the ice crystal bow. If she needed to fire another arrow to win the match, she had no idea what would happen to her.
This Saintess of the Parthenon Temple also possessed a power that was beyond her cultivation. As she thought, she was not the only special person in this world!
”You win!” Asha'ruiya suddenly conceded.
Mu Ningxue was stunned. She was wondering if she had heard it wrong.
Asha'ruiya did not repeat her words . She put her sword away and headed toward the exit.
Her steps were light, and the cold, black armor on her slowly disappeared as a puff of black smoke. She threw the silver mask onto the ground too, and it soon melted.
Asha'ruiya reached the edge of the battlefield and walked past Mo Fan. She finally lifted her gaze and glanced at Mo Fan, who was utterly confused too.
Mo Fan had no clue what was going on. It was obvious that the two were on an equal footing. If Asha'ruiya chose to fight further, the outcome was still unpredictable… unless Asha'ruiya could not use her power any longer, meaning that the slash was already her limit.
The truth was, it was unlikely that Mu Ningxue could fire the arrow a second time!
Mo Fan noticed Asha'ruiya staring at him coldly. Her eyes still had the imposing aura of the Dark Swordmaster. Any other person might be panicking by now, but Mo Fan, who had slain a Dark Swordmaster before, was not intimidated by the aura.
”You owe me one,” Asha'ruiya icy expression was suddenly replaced by a naughty grin, as if the girl next door he had offended had suddenly come up with an evil plan to get her revenge, making him feel uneasy.
”What do you mean by that?” Mo Fan asked.
”If I don't lower my sword, she won't lower her bow, either; but if she doesn't lower her bow, she will lose her life. She's not willing to give up, so I was left with no choice, but you owe me one, understand?” Asha'ruiya smiled, reclaiming her vixen temperament.
”You're at your limit, too,” Mo Fan said.
”Then I'll go back there and continue the fight, and see who's going to be the last person standing...” Asha'ruiya pretended she was going back. She had yet to leave the match officially, as she was only disqualified after crossing the line.
”You win, I owe you one,” Mo Fan said helplessly.
”You seem to care a lot about her?” Asha'ruiya asked, intrigued.
”She's my first wife.”
”...”
Asha'ruiya had never seen anyone so straightforward and shameless!
