There were two deep trenches on the ground in the huge stone square. At the end of each trench, two figures were freeing their feet, which were stuck in the ground.
Spectators around the square fixed their gazes on the confrontation in the center of the square. The mocking disappeared completely. Apparently, numerous people from the Nine Netherbird Clan were shocked, as Mu Chen had used his physical body to block Qin Xuan’s attack.
While everyone was watching Qin Xuan, who was pulling his leg out from the ground, he also took a closer look at Mu Chen. This time, his eyes were filled with seriousness.
In the previous confrontation, he realized that the skinny-looking young man possessed an extreme power. Although Qin Xuan owned a Divine Beast Body, and he had more strength than Mu Chen, he had not gained any advantages in the previous fight.
All this spoke to one thing. Mu Chen was a highly-regarded opponent that he should fight with all his might.
Qin Xuan took a deep breath and spoke slowly. “Looks like it was my misjudgment.”
“You’re polite.”
Mu Chen smiled, but he did not feel proud. Qin Xuan was indeed formidable. He had already circulated his Dragon-Phoenix Body to the maximum just now. Even so, he had not gained much advantage either in the close body combat.
In the past when he fought with the Prince of Netherworld and the rest, he would never lose out in body combat with his Dragon-Phoenix Body. But this time, it was not effective.
Obviously, it was tricky to deal with a top power who possessed a Divine Beast Body.
“To show my apologies, I will be using my full force now.”
Qin Xuan stared at Mu Chen. His eyes surged with sharpness again. He stomped his feet, and an ice storm immediately broke out from his body. In the falling snowflakes, a Frosty Giant Sparrow appeared behind Qin Xuan.
Eek!
The giant sparrow flapped its wings as soon as it appeared. A snowstorm swept out as a high-pitched cold shriek resounded through the sky.
Daunting spiritual energy spread out.
“Qin Xuan called out his Divine Beast’s form?! Looks like he is going all-out.”
“Mu Chen is really something. He has forced Qin Xuan to this extent.”
“But the outcome is obvious now.”
“…”
As the Frosty Giant Sparrow showed up, everyone started whispering again. From the expressions of the clan members of Nine Netherbird Clan, they had regained their confidence, as they knew Qin Xuan was genuinely formidable when he got serious in a fight.
“Nine Nether Frosty Sparrow?”
Mu Chen also lifted his head to see the gigantic frosty bird behind Qin Xuan. His eyes narrowed. This must be Qin Xuan’s actual body. Although it evolved differently and was not as rare as the Nine Netherworld Bird, the strength from the extreme cold was quite tricky, too.
Qin Xuan intended to go all-out now.
Mu Chen looked stern, and he clenched both his fists tightly. Spiritual energy glowed radiantly at the tip of his fingers.
Shoo!
Qin Xuan leaped onto the giant sparrow, his eyes even colder than before. He curled his fingers, and snowflakes quickly gathered in the center of his palm. The next moment, the snowflakes turned into a huge ice bow with ancient snowflake runes running along the bow’s length.
When the bow appeared in Qin Xuan’s hand, the surrounding aura turned extremely cold. The atmosphere was completely different than compared to before.
Qin Xuan locked his gaze on Mu Chen like an eagle. Without any words, he pulled his bow at lightning speed. At that moment, snowflakes swept out, and a ten-foot-long snow arrow was fixed on the bow.
Blue-colored ice was flickering at the tip of the arrow. It exuded a sharp aura that could penetrate voids silently.
The bow curled up like a rounded full moon. The snow arrow was locked onto Mu Chen. Qin Xuan did not give Mu Chen any time to react as he suddenly released the bow.
Bang!
A white glow flitted across the sky as if snowflakes had burst out. It was shot directly at Mu Chen’s forehead at lightning speed.
The moment the arrow was released, Mu Chen’s hair stood on end while a chill spread all over him. His eyes flickered with a golden glow. He stomped his feet on the ground and moved his body with all his might a few yards to the left.
Dong!
As Mu Chen dodged, the white glow hit precisely at the spot where he had just been standing. The entire ground collapsed into an ice pit.
Mu Chen reappeared at a distance from the pit. He felt a little stunned as he looked at the hole. He could sense that the rocks in the pit had been eroded by a scary, icy cold aura. Even a gentle touch on the stones would turn them into powder immediately.
The snow arrow was super powerful. The most formidable aspect was its speed. The arrow was so fast and furious, even though Mu Chen did his best to dodge, he was still not far from it.
