Chapter 1447: Ice and Fire Dust

It’s incredibly difficult to awaken or comprehend the Ice Fire Stardust (Skill).

Extremely difficult.

Harder than Thomas circling.

So difficult that Mingxi teared up just looking at the analysis.

A Transcendent creature must simultaneously possess pure ice and pure fire attributes, be able to split its spiritual world into three equal parts, and demonstrate astonishing control and comprehension of skills.

These three conditions alone have caused countless heroes to fall short.

Even ancient Transcendent creatures would weep.

Forget about meeting all three conditions; the first one alone stops 100% of Transcendent creatures worldwide.

Even if a Transcendent creature in the future possesses both ice and fire dual-inverse attributes, how high is the possibility of cultivating those attributes to a pure state?

Taking a step back, even if a Transcendent creature meets that condition, what about the second one?

The spiritual world splitting method, so far, only Lan Yue can achieve it. Even if she unreservedly taught her insights, techniques, methods, and experience to Golden Yuanbao and the others, none of them succeeded.

Are Golden Yuanbao and the others stupid?

The highly intelligent Emerald Green would be the first to disagree.

Are they not working hard enough?

Golden Yuanbao, the king of diligence, would ask, “Who are you talking about?!”

Are they lacking luck?

Little Silver Flower, the goddess of fortune, would scoff at you.

In summary, it’s not that the comrades don’t want to learn; it’s that this thing simply cannot be learned by Transcendent creatures!

The barrier is too high; the demands on talent, aptitude, physiological structure, and so on are too extreme!

For ordinary mortals, understanding its existence is enough.

However, Mingxi, after her ninth awakening, did slightly grasp a bit of the knack, but she’s still a little short of true success.

Keep up the good work; what if it suddenly clicks one day?

Getting back to the main topic, the Ice Fire Stardust (Skill) was never intended for other Transcendent creatures to awaken or learn.

This skill will most likely remain solely with Lan Yue, existing as her signature individual skill.

It has no dazzling brilliance, much like Lan Yue’s understated and reserved personality.

Billions of ice-blue and bright white threads, fine as the fluff on the edge of a dream, surged out from her center, like mercury spilling across the ground.

They didn’t resemble an attack; they were more like a slow-motion, self-aware river of stardust, elegantly and swiftly moving towards the abyssal silence will.

The abyssal silence will’s silently expanding corrupted domain, upon touching the ‘stardust,’ erupted in a microscopic reaction of freezing and melting.

Calm and silent.

Rapid and stable.

It was as if countless invisible carving knives were sculpting, and in less than a heartbeat, the domain was eroded, absorbed, integrated, and restored.

Ice Fire Stardust (Skill): pure ice and fire attribute energies are symbiotic, with extreme cold and extreme heat energies simultaneously acting on the fundamental structure of an object (including cells, air particles, energy circuits, etc.) at a microscopic level, causing its structure to naturally disintegrate due to its inability to withstand two diametrically opposed stresses, returning dust to dust!

This skill acts upon existence in any form or state.

How powerful is this skill?

Let’s put it this way.

Currently, only Golden Yuanbao and Emerald Green in its Second Form dare to battle Lan Yue when she uses Ice Fire Stardust (Skill), because in simulated combat, Lan Yue, using this skill, instantly kills God Rank opponents!

Without exception!

Even Bright Crystal, as daring as it is, closed its solitary large eyes when it personally witnessed Lan Yue instantly kill everything—the sky, the earth, the air—with Ice Fire Stardust (Skill).

Can’t handle it!

Its life is more important.

Of course, a forbidden, nuclear-weapon-level skill like Ice Fire Stardust (Skill) has limitations when used. Firstly, there’s an ultra-long standby, no, a wind-up time.

Lan Yue needs to remain silent for a full minute during the skill’s release. During this process, she cannot move and cannot perceive external changes, essentially existing in a space where her five senses are lost.

For a Transcendent creature without any protection, a minute is enough for too many things to happen.

Secondly, there’s the age-old problem of consumption.

One skill can deplete two-thirds of Lan Yue’s ‘mana bar.’

So, God Rank skills are powerful, but they certainly aren’t something that can be used whenever one pleases.

“Hiss hiss... slurrp...”

The abyssal silence will’s babbling intensified. Although it only possessed the instinct for survival, this instinct was enough for it to realize the terror of those beautiful, delicate threads.

There was no pain, only a calm disappearance.

Its release, its threat to this world, were all being erased!

Everything brushed by the fluff and threads transformed into shimmering stardust.

The entire process was utterly silent.

Everything around the abyssal silence will ‘evaporated’ in a unique way. Apart from the abyssal silence will itself, only countless blue and white intertwined light dust and fine fluff danced in the air, like the aurora and star river appearing simultaneously in the polar night sky.

It transcended deafening roars and shocking explosions, reaching deep into the soul, chilling one’s bones.

When the last trace of Ice Fire Stardust (Skill)’s energy dissipated, the area around the abyssal silence will was empty.

Even its own beautiful wings had largely dissolved, significantly reducing its cuteness!

It now felt like a once-pristine, delicate doll that, after years of erosion, had transformed into an eerie, haunted doll.

Finally, it had a bit of that evil villain vibe.

“Ling!”

Lan Yue let out a soft cry and retreated to Little Silver Flower’s ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ side to Sunbathe.

Meanwhile, in a certain corner, a figure moved while Lan Yue was releasing Ice Fire Stardust (Skill).

It was Emerald Green.

It made no sound, but a cold, deathly aura, imbued with a strong will to kill, erupted from its body!

“Buzz—!”

Switching to Second Form!

Its ankle-length silver-grey hair danced gracefully in the cool ocean breeze, with dark powder constantly scattering from its tips.

The Soul Flower on the mask on its face bloomed in profusion.

This added a touch of enchanting eeriness to its demeanor.

The vertically striped cape fluttered wildly in the energy storm.

Where it dragged, it left faint trails of black mist that seemed to devour light.

Thousand Spirit War God, unsealed!

The instant Lan Yue’s skill wore off, Emerald Green’s gaze precisely pierced through the chaotic energy flow and locked onto the abyssal silence will.

No roar, no hesitation.

Emerald Green decisively raised its claws.

Five pale bone claws, condensed to the extreme, as if compressed from countless wailing souls, appeared out of thin air!

They went straight for the abyssal silence will’s body, which resembled a dark jade cicada, ignoring the lingering corrosive and polluting power. They broke through all real or illusory forces and defenses, gripping the abyssal silence will’s head.

Ghost Hunting!

Not only that, the countless wailing, struggling phantom souls on its cape, at this moment, surged out like a breached flood of the Styx River!

They were no longer illusory shadows. The moment they left the cape, they ignited with blazing quiet blue soul flames, transforming into hundreds of soul chains, thick as a child’s arm, imbued with the cold rule of death!

The soul chains, like living ghostly pythons, let out soul-piercing shrieks, forming a destructive torrent of soul chains that twisted and attacked the abyssal silence will!

Soul Ferry!

By simultaneously releasing two of the three Ghost Hunting divine skills, Emerald Green was also going all out.

However, the abyssal silence will, having been continuously subjected to heavy firepower, turned its glassy purple compound eyes towards Emerald Green.

It showed curious, bewildered eyes, that pure innocence making one feel incredibly cruel.

But it’s not about what you think; it’s about what I think!

Don’t forget, Emerald Green in its Second Form carries negative emotions like resentment, hatred, sorrow, and suffering. This situation will only worsen as its level increases.

Therefore, in this state, apart from its Beast Tamers, it cannot feel even a speck of goodwill towards other creatures.

Let alone pity or self-loathing.

This is also the main reason Emerald Green immediately switched to its Second Form. Facing an existence like the abyssal silence will, whose appearance is quite deceptive, it, like Mingxi, became wary at the first instant.

It, as the co-commander of this battle, needed to be ready to take over Little Human’s duties at any time.

Absolutely no mistakes could be made at a crucial moment!

The abyssal silence will’s corruption had no effect, and facing the defense-ignoring bone claws and the surging torrent of soul chains, it could only grunt twice in dissatisfaction and slightly opened its tiny mouth.

A strange fluctuation appeared out of thin air.

The hundreds of soul chains burning with quiet blue soul flames, as if encountering their nemesis, instantly dimmed and extinguished at their tips.

The chains themselves began to rapidly melt, like ice thrown into a furnace.

And the Ghost Hunting bone claws, which struck at the very essence, even froze in mid-air when they were mere millimeters from its head. Fine cracks began to appear on their tips, as if an invisible force was dismantling them at the rule level.

Emerald Green’s full-power attack, transformed into Thousand Spirit War God, was so effortlessly... neutralized?

Surprise.

But not much.

Before the battle began, Guangguang had already surveyed all the potential abilities the abyssal silence will might possess for them.

“Although the abyssal silence will is not a Transcendent creature, it resides on the world wound and erodes world rules. Therefore, its ability is to use world rules!

But it is, after all, just a parasite, a germ, not the World Will. So, the rules it can control are certainly not many.

Otherwise, there would be no need for you to act; the World Will would have long since evolved into a spiritual entity and taken action itself!

So, the basic rule it masters is one, with an upper limit of three.”

Clearly, the first rule this abyssal silence will mastered was corruption, which is a rule commonly mastered by abyssal silence will born from world wound.

And the second rule is the one that can now effortlessly nullify God Rank skills.

“Master, it’s Equivalent Exchange!”

Guangguang, as their logistical support, was naturally always in a state of readiness and immediately identified the rule the abyssal silence will had just used.

“Equivalent Exchange, as the name suggests, if you want to gain something, you must pay a price of equal value.

To gain, you must first lose.

The same applies to nullifying an attack.

This is a rule that follows the principle of absolute fairness; it’s not that mastering it is useless, but rather it’s a rule that harms a thousand enemies while hurting eight hundred of yourself.

This abyssal silence will just sacrificed a part of its body to forcibly neutralize all of Brocade Life Asura’s attacks.”

Mingxi raised an eyebrow, “Then what did it sacrifice just now to neutralize Emerald Green’s attack?”

From its appearance, there was no sign that the abyssal silence will had lost anything.

Guangguang: “Ahem, it was its ‘reproductive organs.’”

Mingxi: “...”

Emerald Green: “...”

“...Doesn’t this guy only have instincts for survival and Devour? Is it actually that smart?

The abyssal silence will’s body structure perfectly mirrors humans or Transcendent creatures; it possesses a heart, spleen, stomach, kidneys, and lungs, and naturally, reproductive organs.

But the abyssal silence will is fundamentally a ‘microorganism,’ a ‘bacteria’ dependent on the world wound; its reproduction doesn’t rely on reproductive organs.

Using reproductive organs for Equivalent Exchange is tantamount to no cost.

Guangguang sighed, “Sometimes, the instinct for survival is the most terrifying thing.”

That’s a valid point.

What a pity for the incomparably handsome Emerald Green.

Mingxi and Baobao, with remarkable synchronicity, cast sympathetic glances at Emerald Green, including the Celestial Mystery Nine Radiance Python, who had just joined the family.

“Heh, Poyu (Breaking Prison), Poyu (Breaking Prison).”

Bright Crystal, having eaten the guts of a bear and a leopard, not only sneered but also grumbled, “A flurry of operations like a tiger, but the record shows 0-5, 6!”

No sooner had it spoken than a sinister, chilling gaze shot over.

Even Little Silver Flower was impressed by Bright Crystal.

What a brave warrior, daring to brainlessly provoke Emerald Green in its Second Form. It truly isn’t afraid of death.

Do you believe Emerald Green would dare to pluck off its big head, shake its brains until they’re evenly mixed, and then put them back?

In that regard, it was somewhat inferior.

Although it accomplished nothing, Emerald Green’s attack was by no means ineffective. Being able to test out the second rule mastered by the abyssal silence will was already a great contribution.

This way, they could do even more, and the certainty of killing the abyssal silence will once again significantly increased!

Equivalent Exchange, it’s hard to say who it benefits more.

It can’t possibly have two sets of reproductive organs.

“Buzz!”

Joking aside, they were serious about fighting.

A completely different, extremely heavy force field suddenly descended!

It was Chiyu!

She had, at some unknown point, rushed to a position diagonally above the abyssal silence will, and with both palms, she slammed downwards!

Gravity Well (Skill) was released.

In an instant, the space around the abyssal silence will seemed to be fiercely squeezed and compressed by an invisible large hand!

The corruption, which had once again begun to expand, visibly slowed its expansion speed. Even the abyssal silence will’s small body sank slightly, and the force field around it showed subtle ripples.

The crowd control, weakening, and anti-air effects of Gravity Well (Skill) were maximized by Chiyu at this moment, forcibly creating a temporary restrictive domain!

But this was not enough!

Chiyu knew that control alone could not shake this terrifying existence.

Her eyes were as sharp as a peerless divine weapon about to be unsheathed. The Steel-type energy that had been contained within her body now burned and compressed frantically in an unprecedented manner!

The steel bones on her back rapidly combined, forming a dark red glowing spike.

All the scattered energy, the potential energy gathered by the Gravity Well (Skill), and even her own boiling fighting spirit and soul power, were forcibly converged by her at this moment, infused into the sharp spike on her right claw!

One Line Pierce!

Chiyu’s figure vanished.

She and the red spike seemed to merge into one, transforming into an extremely condensed, almost invisible dark red line of light!

This light line, with a pure concept of penetration that transcended conventional physics and energy, directly pierced towards the abyssal silence will’s brow.
