At this moment, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King was already feeling the urge to retreat. Although it hated human soul masters to the core, its intelligence rivaled that of humans, and it too understood the principle of seeking fortune and avoiding misfortune.
Its instincts told it that this female human soul master before it was unfathomably powerful, far from someone it could easily contend with.
However, Jingliu clearly had no intention of letting it go so easily.
Just as the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King attempted to once more slip into space to escape this terrifying woman, a terrifying sword intent capable of freezing everything locked onto it like a shadow.
The surrounding space seemed to be shrouded in an invisible layer of frost. Under the dual seal of the sword intent and icy chill, even with its powerful spatial attributes, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King found its ability to move through space completely severed as if it were trapped in an invisible cage.
With its path of retreat completely cut off, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King instantly erupted in ferocity.
It raised its head and let out a long, piercing howl. Silvery moonlight surged in its mouth like a tide, instantly condensing into a terrifying pillar of light dozens of meters wide, blasting furiously toward Jingliu.
Jingliu's expression remained as cold and calm as ever, not a ripple of emotion to be seen.
She slowly raised the icy sword in her hand, which exuded a chilling aura. An overwhelming sword intent instantly condensed, and the blade shone with dazzling icy blue brilliance. She swung gently—an action that looked soft but contained terrifying power.
Crack!
A sword aura a hundred meters long split through the void like a bolt of lightning tearing the sky asunder.
Wherever it passed, the air was covered with a layer of frost, freezing rapidly.
The terrifying light pillar unleashed by the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King was instantly frozen into a massive pillar of ice; the sword aura's momentum did not diminish in the slightest as it slashed straight toward the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King.
At this moment, the dragon's once-proud hundred-meter-long body had become a burden before this sharp sword aura.
With its spatial movement ability lost, it faced this unavoidable and lethal strike, falling into utter despair.
Sensing the threat of death, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King's soul power erupted like a volcano. Waves of terrifying soul power surged outward wildly.
At this critical moment of life and death, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King finally played its last card.
In an instant, blood-red and silver light interwove, illuminating the entire sky. A bright silver moon and a strange blood moon rose into the sky at the same time.
Bathed in the soft yet cold silver moonlight, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King's aura soared explosively.
Its crescent-shaped dragon tail rose high, then swung down fiercely, unleashing a silver crescent nearly a hundred meters long, slicing through the air and colliding head-on with Jingliu's sword aura.
At the same time, the blood moon hanging in the sky began its attack. Countless blood-red beams of light shot out in all directions like a blossoming flower, targeting everyone present indiscriminately.
Clearly, with intelligence rivaling humans, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King was attempting to force Jingliu to split her attention to save her companions, thereby creating a chance to escape.
However, it greatly underestimated the strength and teamwork of Lu Jingming and Zhang Lexuan.
"Sixth soul skill: Moon Over Nine Heavens! Seventh soul skill: Martial Soul True Body!" Zhang Lexuan shouted.
The soul rings on her body instantly shone with brilliant light as she simultaneously activated her sixth soul skill and Martial Soul True Body.
She seemed to transform into a silver moon, moving at incredible speed to the side of Wu Ming, who had fallen to the ground from exhaustion, hovering in the air above her.
The silver moon's radiance acted as an invisible shield, blocking the majority of the blood-red beams raining from the sky. Zhang Lexuan's sixth soul skill, "Moon Over Nine Heavens," could not only continuously restore health and soul power but also greatly enhance her attack and defense.
In the state of Martial Soul True Body, the effects of the sixth soul skill were amplified to the extreme.
Because of this, even when facing the terrifying power of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast's soul skill attack, she could block it steadily with her own strength.
Lu Jingming, wielding his black spear, followed Zhang Lexuan at blazing speed, arriving at Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo's side in the blink of an eye, black mist swirling around him.
The black mist formed a barrier, devouring the blood-red beams that Zhang Lexuan missed, ensuring that not a single bit of harm reached the two behind them.
The Silvermoon Flood Dragon King's plan had completely failed.
Jingliu was not distracted by her companions' danger, for she knew Lu Jingming and Zhang Lexuan's strength well and believed this crisis would not trouble them.
Thus, tragedy befell the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King. With a miserable shriek, Jingliu's icy sword pierced straight through the dragon's head, pinning it savagely to the ground.
Boom!
The earth seemed unable to withstand the massive impact, letting out a heavy rumble.
A gigantic hundred-meter-long behemoth crashed to the earth, raising clouds of dust that blotted out the sky.
As the sound of freezing echoed, the dust gradually settled.
What appeared before everyone was a huge iceberg, within which the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King was completely frozen, like an eternal sculpture.
Though its head had been pierced by Jingliu's sword, as a powerful hundred-thousand-year soul beast, its vitality was extremely tenacious and it would not die in a short time.
With Jingliu's ultimate ice freezing it, the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King was temporarily trapped in a state between life and death.
After all, this was a soul beast perfectly suited for Zhang Lexuan. If she wanted to absorb its soul ring, Zhang Lexuan had to do the deed herself.
"Wu Ming, what happened? How did you provoke the Silvermoon Flood Dragon King?"
Seeing that Jingliu had subdued the beast, Lu Jingming finally turned to look at Wu Ming. At the same time, a white holy spear shining with sacred light appeared in his left hand. Instantly, a pure white domain radiated from him like ripples.
Under the life-filled white Genesis Domain, the shocking wounds on Wu Ming and Han Ruoruo's bodies began to heal rapidly before their eyes.
Broken bones regrew and rejoined, torn muscles knit together, and bleeding cuts scabbed and faded.
Feeling her weakened body regain its strength, Wu Ming was shocked. Such terrifying healing efficiency was far beyond even the Soul Sage teacher at Shrek Academy with the Life Tree martial soul.
Moreover, if she wasn't mistaken, the weapon Lu Jingming used earlier to protect them was a black spear, not this white holy spear. In other words, the white-haired youth before her possessed the rare Twin Martial Souls.
