Chapter 264: Dongfang Bingling’s Sacrifice!
Chapter 264: Dongfang Bingling’s Sacrifice!
Yang Dingtian couldn’t see the trio’s figure anymore. A thousand meters of surrounding ice had also vanished. It was replaced by a hell of extremely powerful energy, and it was unlike the human world anymore.
Dongfang Bingling’s delicate body was floating and swirling in the air. Endless icy radiance was rushing out from the ice layers and surging towards Dongfang Bingling’s body and revolving around her.
They were like countless spirits and fireflies that were much more beautiful than usual.
Instantly, Dongfang Bingling’s body had turned translucent, and she was emitting a mesmerizing and pure radiance, making her look more like a fairy.
Dongfang Bingling’s eyes were still closed, and when she was facing the fatal attacks from the three formidable foes, she didn’t even take a glance.
“Everything shall end...” Qin Huaiyu suddenly yelled out and slashed with the sharp sword in his hand.
All the dark energy had gathered into one line and was thrust at Dongfang Bingling.
At the same time, the blood light that was surrounding Dugu Fengwu had also condensed into a sword. It was a bright red and fearsome sword that was shot at Dongfang Bingling.
Gudu Wuhuan’s golden dragon suddenly made a sky-shaking roar and turned into a white light that rushed at Dongfang Bingling.
Three extremely powerful and fatal energies were all shot at Dongfang Bingling.
With the cultivation that Dongfang Bingling possessed, she was able to receive one of the attacks. She might also be able to barely block two of the attacks and survive. But three attacks were definitely going to kill her.
“Boom...” There was a giant echo.
***
Yang Dingtian could only feel a flash of white light.
It was like a nuclear explosion on Earth.
Everything in front of the eyes was extremely bright and dazzling.
The sudden explosion of the extremely powerful energy was enough to decimate everything and turn everything into dust.
Yang Dingtian’s Sky Devil Flame Saber had contained all of his energy and was cleaved out.
Everything in front of his eyes had turned into nothingness, and he had lost all of his senses.
It wasn’t just vision and hearing, the sense of touch and awareness had vanished as well.
In short, everything had vanished. Not only his body and consciousness, but it was also as though the entire world had vanished.
The feeling of death might just be like this!
***
It was unknown how much time had passed.
It felt just like a moment but also like a lifetime.
All of the sensations were gradually returned to Yang Dingtian’s body.
He could feel, hear, and see again.
But the first thing he saw had shocked him utterly.
He was actually unscathed!
Furthermore, Dongfang Bingling was actually unscathed too. But her body was no longer like a human. The ice spirits were still revolving around her, and she looked just like an ice sculpture. She was translucent and sparkling, and she was extremely breathtaking and strange.
The central lake had been blasted open with a giant cavity. The surrounding lake water had poured inwards to fill up the gap; afterward, they were quickly turned into ice at a visible speed.
It wasn’t just Yang Dingtian, Dugu Fengwu, Qin Huaiyu, and Gudu Wuhuan were also completely stunned.
Dongfang Bingling actually didn’t die after the fatal attacks from the trio? How was this possible?
They knew about Dongfang Bingling’s cultivation, and it was impossible for her to withstand their all-out attacks. There should be only one outcome, that would be Dongfang Bingling getting shattered into smithereens.
But she wasn’t shattered into pieces, she didn’t even look like she suffered any injuries. How was this possible? Even a Master class expert wouldn’t be able to achieve this.
At the same moment, Dongfang Bingling gradually opened her beautiful eyes. Yang Dingtian realized that her eyes were exactly like precious stones and weren’t like flesh anymore.
“The only person who can kill Dongfang Bingling is Dongfang Bingling!”
When she opened her small mouth to speak, her petal-like lips were currently translucent and were just like ice.
While her mouth was opened, a deep blue crystal-like fluid flowed out slowly from the corner of her mouth. This was originally her fresh blood, but it was now in a deep blue color.
Yang Dingtian understood that Dongfang Bingling wasn’t unscathed.
Immediately after, Dongfang Bingling looked at the trio and said, “That’s right, I am going to die today, but I will definitely not die in the hands of either of you. The only person who can kill Dongfang Bingling is only Dongfang Bingling. Also, each one of you is going to accompany me to death!”
After finishing her statement, Dongfang Bingling’s body suddenly emitted a strange radiance.
Subsequently, the ice spirits that were revolving around her body had entered her body.
At the same moment, all ice from the vicinity was flying towards Dongfang Bingling and diving into her body frenziedly.
Dongfang Bingling’s body was suspended in the air. Her shivering body indicated that she was experiencing extreme pain.
Furthermore, her body was rapidly transforming inch by inch.
If she looked like an ice person earlier, she was now a complete ice person.
Her fair and tender skin was freezing into ice gradually. The Nine Heavens Fairy, Dongfang Bingling, was turning into an ice person, inch by inch.
“All of you shall die together!” Dongfang Bingling yelled out delicately. Her voice sounded just like shattered ice.
Qin Huaiyu had a drastic change in expression while he looked at Dugu Fengwu and Gudu Wuhuan. The trio looked at one another and thought of the same thing.
Sacrifice!
That’s right! Sacrifice!
It was said to be the most powerful mystic skill and also the most ruthless mystic skill in the world. It was even more ruthless than exploding one’s own qi vessel.
Sacrifice was to offer one’s own flesh and spirit to the world’s most fearsome energy.
For ice attribute martial artists, it would be to offer themselves to the endless ice.
For fire attribute martial artists, it would be to offer themselves to the inexhaustible flame.
When one’s own body had completely fused with the extremely powerful energy, the final attack that was released would be able to slaughter anything in its path. It could even kill a God.
If Dongfang Bingling had just exploded her qi vessel, she might be able to inflict damage to Qin Huaiyu and the others, but she wouldn’t be able to kill them.
But she had actually used Sacrifice, and that would only mean one outcome, that was to end in mutual destruction. Dongfang Bingling might be shattered into pieces, but Qin Huaiyu, Dugu Fengwu, and Gudu Wuhuan would also be turned into dust.
Of course, it included the passer-by, Yang Dingtian.
Even though Yang Dingtian might die in Dongfang Bingling’s hands, he couldn’t help but feel a sincere respect for her, and this was the first time. In the past, Yang Dingtian only felt hatred and disdain towards her, but now, the resentment had an additional trace of respect.
This woman was extremely obstinate and prideful, so much that she would never lower her head and would maintain her pride.
The trio didn’t dare to look at one another. Sacrifice was the most mysterious and powerful mystic skill, and it only existed in legends. No one had witnessed or used it before.
They never expected for Dongfang Bingling to learn this supreme and ruthless mystic skill.
Earlier on, she had only used the first chapter of Sacrifice and was already able to block the combined attacks of the trio.
Right now, Dongfang Bingling was going to execute the second chapter of Sacrifice, Dark Extermination!
Sacrifice had a total of two chapters. Dongfang Bingling had devoured the surrounding energy from the lake of ice and had fused them completely with herself. Once it was released, it would surely have a shocking power.
Hence, the trio’s faces were filled with horror when they saw Dongfang Bingling turn into an ice person, inch by inch.
When Dongfang Bingling turned into an ice person completely, it would be the time for Sacrifice to be released. By then, everyone here would turn into ashes.
“Use weapons to kill her, don’t use mystic qi.” Qin Huaiyu said.
Right now, Dongfang Bingling’s surroundings were filled with powerful energy. Earlier on, the trio’s combined mystic skill attacks were already useless, it was obvious that no mystic qi would be able to hurt her anymore. It was why Qin Huaiyu said to use weapons.
Qin Huaiyu finished his statement and thrust at Dongfang Bingling’s chest with lightning speed, wanting to kill her with this thrust.
“Clang...” But, Qin Huaiyu’s sword didn’t stab into Dongfang Bingling’s body. It had been immediately deflected by indestructible energy.
After executing Sacrifice, the trio was actually powerless against Dongfang Bingling.
At this moment, more ice energy was frenziedly entering Dongfang Bingling’s body. The energy accumulated in her body was getting increasingly stronger and would be released at any time. Once it was released, the trio would definitely perish.
“Run...” Dugu Fengwu gave the command and immediately turned and fled.
Qin Huaiyu had a reluctant expression.
“Dongfang Bingling is definitely dead, she just didn’t die in our hands, that’s all.” Gudu Wuhuan said, “Let’s go!”
Almost instantly, Gudu Wuhuan and Qin Huaiyu turned and fled as well.
“Swish...” All of a sudden, Gudu Wuhuan, who had fled far away, had shot a cold awl that pierced into Yang Dingtian’s chest.
“Bang...” Yang Dingtian vomited a mouthful of fresh blood and was sent flying.
This Gudu Wuhuan was actually so vicious and still made a move to kill Yang Dingtian before fleeing.
Yang Dingtian could see clearly that the hidden weapon was an ice awl. If Yang Dingtian weren’t wearing the Deep Sea Mystic Clothes, he would be dead right now.
Before making a move, Gudu Wuhuan felt that Yang Dingtian was definitely dead; hence, he didn’t even take a look and had vanished with Qin Huaiyu.
***
Yang Dingtian desperately tried to get up, only to see more ice energy frenziedly rushing into Dongfang Bingling’s body, and her body was rapidly turning into ice.
Once this transformation reached the limit, all the ice energy that she devoured would be instantly released. By then, Dongfang Bingling would be shattered into pieces, and Yang Dingtian would surely be turned into dust.
But now, no one could stop what was happening. Not even Dugu Fengwu, Qin Huaiyu, and Gudu Wuhuan could stop it, so they fled.
Those three individuals were Martial Supreme experts, and if they couldn’t stop it, let alone Yang Dingtian, who was a mere Martial Mystic.
Right now, not even Dongfang Bingling could stop herself as her body and spirit were already offered to Sacrifice.
