“Then let's see who is stronger! The constancy of your heart or the torment of the cold in this ice prison of mine,” Heilong exclaimed.
Heilong then moved his hands together to make the temperature of the air in the ice drop to an extreme until a very strong snowstorm was created inside the ice prison.
Xin Ye simply fell silent quietly in place while closing her eyes like she was waiting for something. He did not move at all even though his body had already started to freeze and was covered in extremely thick snow.
Heilong sensed that something was strange when he saw Xin Ye's calmness he finally decided to ask Li Ziqi.
“Teacher, did Master also sense that there was something strange about Xin Ye? Why can he be that calm when under the attack of extreme cold.”
“Did you have forgotten that Yin energy was identical to cold so the cold attack did not seem to have any effect on his body.”
Suddenly Li Ziqi felt a surge of darkness energy on Xin Ye's body although the surge of energy was not too great but it happened gradually and still continued to this day.
Li Ziqi frowned as she sensed that darkness energy was constantly increasing and finally decided to examine Xin Ye's body with her divine eyes.
“He was apparently waiting for all the seals shackling his power to open,” Li Ziqi said in surprise.
Heilong immediately frowned as if in disbelief. “What does teacher mean, he hasn't expended all his strength against me?”
“Boomm .... ”
Suddenly there was a very violent explosion inside the ice prison. The force of this explosion made all of the ice-cold walls that formed the ice prison shatter into pieces into pieces of ice.
Apparently what Li Ziqi said was all true. Right now all the power seals Xin Ye had put on were almost all open and her strength had already recovered by seventy-five percent of her original strength.
“You are lucky that Dao Xue Lian cannot recover her strength by one hundred percent,” Li Ziqi said.
"Why Teacher? Does he plan to save twenty-five percent of his strength to use in times of urgency?” heilong asked confusedly.
“The biggest seal that shackles his power is in the Spirit of your beloved. As long as your lover's spirit is still inside Xin Ye's body then twenty-five percent of the power of Dao Xue Lian will remain sealed,” Li Ziqi replied.
“In other words my chance of being able to defeat him is only until Sherly's spirit can survive inside Xin Ye's body. I should be able to bring Sherly's spirit back to its senses before Dao Xue Lian managed to exterminate it,” Heilong said as he looked towards the already destroyed ice prison.
The aura of darkness energy present in Xin Ye's body became larger than before until it multiplied many times until it made anyone around her tremble. The water on the shore became high tide and the sky was rumbling as a result of the intense pressure of darkness energy emanating from Xin Ye's body.
All of the Divine Beasts present on Dreamland Planet had finally gathered on the inner island and strengthened the Ice World Protector Formation that Xue Xian Hou and the three Emperors had created.
“Our greetings to the Divine Beasts,” said Xue Xian Hou and the three Emperors together upon seeing the arrival of the Divine Beasts.
“Did you all come to this place to kill Dao Xue Lian?” ask Emperor Xuan De.
“No. That matter has been completely handed over to Long Bai and his Master as they're the ones who are the most capable to defeat the current Dao Xue Lian. Our arrival to this place is only to strengthen the protective terrain that exists in this place so that the strength of their battle does not cause damage outside this island,” Divine Beast Genbu replied.
Heilong stood in front of Xin Ye while holding a white fang sword that had been enveloped with extremely strong ice and wind energy. He was already prepared to attack Xin Ye with the Earth-Splitting Sword Technique.
“Are you surprised after seeing the change in strength that is inside my body! Right now your strength is nothing more than an ant in front of me. I can destroy your body just by flicking my fingers,” Xin Ye said with a mocking smile.
“I was really surprised. I never thought that you could raise your power to this magnitude in just a short time and destroy the ice prison I created. But don't you think I don't know that your strength hasn't recovered a hundred percent,” Heilong replied coldly.
“To kill you I don't need to recover my original strength by a hundred percent. Seventy-five percent of this power alone is enough to turn your body into dust,” Xin Ye exclaimed.
“Try to prove that you can kill me with only seventy-five percent of your original strength. I want to see how you forget what you said just now, you Devil,”
Heilong grinned and immediately jumped towards Xin Ye while clasping the white fang sword he had in his hand firmly as the sword was unceasingly shaking due to the sheer magnitude of the ice and wind energy it was in put Heilong into the sword.
Xin Ye looked at Heilong sharply and immediately poured an extremely powerful darkness and lightning energy into her right palm when she saw Heilong was already getting closer. He wanted to fight Heilong's sword stance with Lappatah being formed with seventy-five percent of his original strength.
Heilong instantly slashed his sword towards Xin Ye when they were still two meters away. He could not move any closer as he was restrained by the force of the darkness energy and the demonic air emanating from Xin Ye's body.
“The Sword Splits the Earth.”
“Slash ...”
The sword shadow of wind and ice energy formed from the earth-splitting sword stance instantly pointed straight towards Xin Ye very quickly like a gust of wind.
“Boom …. ”
Two enormous forces clashed strongly in the air and made a huge explosive sound that made the entire place tremble. An extremely strong gust of wind formed from the collision of the two great powers and threw out whatever was around it.
Heilong and Xin Ye were the closest to the explosion, their bodies were both instantly pushed up by a meter when they were hit by that gust of wind.
Xin Ye looked at Heilong sharply. “Great also your ability. What if you join the Devil nation and come with me to the Underworld. I know that you love very much the spirit of the woman in this body. I promise you if you want to join us then I am willing to marry you and make you the prince of the Devil nation.”
“I refuse,” replied Heilong firmly.
“Why did you immediately reject my offer without thinking about it first? Do you think what I offer is not interesting enough or everything I offer is still lacking?” xin Ye asked confusedly.
“What you offer is indeed very interesting but I do not believe in the demon race at all. Once you get there you can deny everything you promised and make me a slave to the devil. I assure you that until any time I will never join the demon race because the demon nation is destined for me to destroy with both hands,” Heilong exclaimed.
Xin Ye immediately looked at Heilong sharply and a killing intent began to radiate from his body. “Did you say it was your last decision and you sure you don't want to change it again?”
“I am very sure of what I have said that you do not need to repeat your offer. Don't ever expect me to believe what you said after you disavowed everything you said just a moment ago. After all the person I love is not you so there is no point if you offer to marry me,” Heilong replied smilingly.
“It's a shame you've wasted the only chance I've given you so you can stay alive. Now there's no reason to keep you alive. With my hand I will kill you and absorb all the power that is in your body for that power to be mine,” Xin Ye threatened while showing her black and very sharp nails.
“Do it if you can. It seems that I will cut off all the nails that are in your hands first before those nails can touch my body,” Heilong exclaimed defiantly as he pointed his sword towards Xin Ye.
“Basic man cocky!” xin Ye said furiously.
An enraged Xin Ye immediately shot to where Heilong was and directly attacked Heilong's body with her black and extremely sharp Dragon claws. That Dragon Claw was not an ordinary Dragon Claw because Dao Xue Lian actually came from the Eternal Dragon Race just like her Father Demon King Dao Gi. This race was the strongest Demon Dragon Race in the Underworld and the leader of the Divine Devil Race.
The Dragon Claw that Xin Ye had in hand contained an extremely powerful darkness energy and also contained the eternal darkness poison within it. The poison of eternal darkness has the ability to turn a human into a demon if the poison has spread throughout that person's body.
Heilong continued to dodge those attacks very agilely using the Super Sonic Dance style. Xin Ye's claw attacks would scratch her body several times but before the nail touched her skin, Heilong first used her ice energy to cover the part.
“Is it just that fast the speed of your attack? if it's only that fast then don't expect your claws to hurt my body,” Heilong sneered.
Heilong continued to taunt Xin Ye for Dao Xue Lian to become so angry that her attention became distracted. This way he hoped that Dao Xue Lian could forget about exterminating Sherly and give Sherly time to gather her consciousness back.
“Bigger!! Alright, I will show you the true speed of the Eternal Dragon Race,” Xin Ye exclaimed furiously.
Xin Ye's body instantly disappeared before Heilong's eyes and appeared behind his body. Heilong was surprised to feel his back suddenly turn cold but he did not have time to look back.
“Buk …. ”
Xin Ye's black claw hit Heilong's back and left a deep scratch scar. The dark energy that coated the claws was apparently able to scratch Heilong's body which was stronger than steel.
“Hehe .. Feel the power of my eternal dark poison. When the poison spreads to your dantian and all the meridian points on your body, you will become a Devil. I want to see how you can avoid joining the demon race like you exclaimed just a moment ago because after becoming a Devil. Want to not want you to join the Devil nation,” said Xin Ye smiled cunningly.
A black colored flame instantly appeared on the scar of the claw that was on Heilong's back. This fire felt very hot and painful even though Heilong's body contained the element of water that always protected him.
A soul restoration technique that could heal all wounds and be immune to all poisons could not even heal these scratches. The poison began to spread into Heilong's body and attempted to get into his dantian.
“Teacher what should I do? My water element healing technique is completely useless against this poison of eternal darkness. I don't want to be a Devil,” Heilong asked Li Ziqi in a slightly quivering voice as it endured the pain.
“Your water element healing technique will not be useful to fight against this eternal darkness poison because in fact it is not a poison but a very pure dark energy so that this energy can turn other forms of energy into energy darkness,” Li Ziqi replied.
“Then what should I do to remove this poison?” heilong.
“Take out the Blue Star Heaven Sword and place the sword over the wound on your back. I will use the Starlight Seal Force to absorb that dark energy and seal it into the Blue Star Heaven Sword Sword,” Li Ziqi's orders
In accordance with the orders from Li Ziqi, Heilong directly took out the Blue Star Heaven Sword and placed the sword on his back.
Xin Ye immediately raised her eyebrows when she saw the Blue Star Heaven Sword sword that Heilong had in hand. He was very surprised and his slightly shaking hand was trying to reach towards Heilong.
“The sword …!? How could the sword be in the young man's hand. The sword should have disappeared along with Li Xuan's death because it only recognized Li Xuan as its Master. Was that young man the reincarnation of Li Xuan?”
