Chapter 13 The Celestial Crystal of Justice, Ice Break
The moment Wu Yi gripped the sword hilt, a surge of immense power flowed into his body.
The feeling was completely different from when I held the Frightening Evil.
The power of the evil spirit is external, like a bolt of lightning, transmitted from the divine weapon to his arm, and then released by him.
Although powerful, there is always a layer separating them.
The power of the Celestial Beast is internal.
There is no barrier between the sword and the man.
The power of the Celestial Beast directly merged into his meridians, resonating with his own internal energy, as if the sword and this power were originally a part of his body.
He didn't need to adapt or break in; the moment he grasped the sword, he knew everything about it.
Its weight, its sharpness, its power, and the moves it can unleash!
This is the soul contract.
Wu Yi looked down at the Heavenly Crystal Sword in his hand, the blue light flowing across the sword reflected in his pupils.
No praise was needed; Wu Yi's eyes were filled with satisfaction.
Everything about this sword seems to have been tailor-made for him.
The only flaw might be that the Celestial Beast has only recently been born, and the power of the divine weapon is still somewhat insufficient.
But for Wu Yi, this was not a problem.
He has plenty of time to allow the Celestial Beast to grow.
Moreover, the feeling of nurturing something personally gives him a great sense of accomplishment.
Wu Yi's descent stopped the moment the Heavenly Crystal Beast completed its transformation. He stood in the air, looking down at General Scorpion and Poison Scorpion.
General Scorpio also noticed the uninvited guest who had fallen from the sky.
He looked up abruptly, but his expression changed drastically the moment he saw the figure in the sky!
Lord Nangong Yi of Nangong City!
General Scorpion was unaware that the leader of the Heaven and Earth Alliance had been defeated; he was simply attacking Flying Dragon Gorge according to the previous plan.
But seeing Nangong Yi appear still filled him with terror.
Because he knew very well that he was no match for Nangong Yi.
Unless they can get close enough to allow the scorpion to inject its strongest venom into Nangong Yi's body, there is absolutely no chance of victory.
Just as General Scorpion was plotting his plan, Wu Yi raised his hand and swung his sword down.
Ice Break!
There were no fancy moves, just a simple slash of the sword.
However, this sword strike was not an ordinary sword aura.
A blade of ice-blue light detached from the Heavenly Crystal Sword, suddenly expanding in mid-air and transforming into a crystal-clear ice dragon.
The ice dragon bared its fangs and claws, swooping down on the venomous scorpion and the Scorpion General with overwhelming cold. Wherever it passed, the moisture in the air instantly condensed into ice crystals, which fluttered down from the sky and refracted into seven colors under the sunlight.
Sensing the terrifying chill, the scorpion instinctively raised its tail, aimed its stinger at the ice dragon, and spewed out a thick purple venomous mist.
However, the poisonous mist was frozen the moment it came into contact with the ice dragon.
The purple mist solidified into countless tiny ice crystals, which crashed and fell to the ground.
Without pausing, the ice dragon opened its massive jaws and swallowed the poisonous scorpion whole.
boom!
The ice dragon exploded, turning into a sky full of frost.
The scorpion's massive body was completely encased in a thick layer of ice, its tail raised, frozen on the rock like an ice sculpture.
Within the ice layer, the purple poisonous mist was frozen halfway before it could be released, forming a strange purple pattern.
One sword.
Only one sword.
The venomous scorpion that General Scorpion relied on was thus eliminated.
His eyes widened, his legs began to tremble uncontrollably, and his lips quivered, but he couldn't make a sound.
He knew Nangong Yiqiang, but he didn't expect the gap to be so large.
There was absolutely no room for resistance.
Wu Yi landed on the ground, the tip of the Tianjing Sword pointing diagonally at the ground, and a faint chill still lingered on the blade.
He glanced at the scorpion frozen into an ice sculpture, then looked at General Scorpion, who was too frightened to move, and shook his head slightly.
too weak.
He didn't even feel like he was warming up.
The power of the Celestial Beast was indeed formidable, but its opponent was too weak to withstand the attack, and the true power of this divine weapon could not be tested at all.
But it's okay.
Jade Dragon Kingdom is so vast, and there are so many demonized divine beasts. This is only the first one; there will be plenty of opportunities to come.
A flash of light appeared on the Heavenly Crystal Sword, and it transformed back into the form of the Heavenly Crystal Beast.
The azure Qilin landed beside Wu Yi, its four hooves treading on auspicious clouds, its eyes shining even brighter than before.
"City Lord," the Heavenly Crystal Beast's voice carried a hint of excitement, "I felt a power trembling slightly within me after that sword strike. Although it hasn't fully awakened yet, it has already reacted."
Wu Yi understood; battle was indeed the best catalyst.
Although the opponent was weak, even a single sword strike could resonate with the power within the Celestial Crystal Beast.
At this rate, unlocking the remaining four forms is only a matter of time.
Wu Yi stepped forward to the ice sculpture of the scorpion, placed his hand on the ice, and with a slight tremor of his inner force, the ice layer cracked open, but without harming the scorpion inside.
The frozen scorpion had lost its ability to fight, and its demonic energy was constantly dissipating under the corrosive influence of the ice.
"Wen Ya," Wu Yi called out upwards.
The giant dragon slowly descended, and Nangong Wenya jumped off its back and ran to the scorpion.
She stretched out her delicate white hand and placed it on the scorpion's cold carapace. A soft green light shone, and the purifying power seeped into the scorpion's body like a spring breeze.
Black demonic energy emanated from the scorpion, hissing in the air as it rapidly dissolved and disintegrated.
The scorpion's eyes also changed from cloudy to clear.
Purification complete.
Wu Yi secretly glanced at the Red Dust panel.
Perhaps the scorpion was too weak, as its energy bar only increased by a negligible amount, less than one percent.
However, Wu Yi did not mind.
After all, little by little, it adds up.
There are still so many magical beasts in the Jade Dragon Kingdom waiting for him to purify; it's only a matter of time before his energy bar is full.
The purified scorpion returned to its true nature. Looking at the flying dragons it had poisoned, it felt a deep sense of guilt.
"Can your poison be cured?" Wu Yi asked.
He remembered that in the story, Nangong Wentian and the others relied on the divine weapon Shennong Ruler to cure the poison, but now that they didn't have the Shennong Ruler, they could only see if there was any way to deal with the source of the poisonous scorpion.
Fortunately, the scorpion nodded quickly, indicating that it had a solution.
As it spoke, the scorpion raised its tail, but this time it sprayed not purple poisonous mist, but a wisp of light green smoke.
The wisps of smoke drifted toward the poisoned and fallen dragons, and the purple poison spots on their bodies began to fade the moment they came into contact with the green smoke.
Their breathing gradually calmed down, their wings regained their strength, and soon they stood up again one by one.
Seeing this, General Scorpion finally came to his senses.
He turned to run, but a bolt of lightning grazed his ear, and a charred crater appeared in the ground in front of him.
The evil spirit descended from the sky, its enormous pincers slamming into the ground, causing General Scorpion to fall flat on his backside.
"Did I let you leave?" Jingxie said lazily.
Shen Wufei chuckled lightly in the air; this familiar scene was clearly something she had imitated from Wu Yi.
General Scorpion's face was ashen.
