No one could have imagined that the sound of the small bell, known as the Clear Chime, would resonate throughout the entire battlefield!
All the warriors of the Human Emperor's Army engaged in battle initially paid no mind to the piercing sound that seemed to penetrate their eardrums. However, they soon realized that this sound was causing such intense pain in their heads that they could no longer continue fighting.
If only ten or eight were affected, it would be manageable, but with hundreds of warships and tens of thousands of soldiers all suffering similarly, it was clear just how formidable that bell was!
Jiang Xue stood beside her, a triumphant glint in her eyes. Although Princess Lingli had been somewhat competitive this time, her tactical skills were exceptionally sharp.
As Wang Long had said, they currently had no concept of Slicing Shadow's abilities. If they charged recklessly, they would easily fall into his traps. Now, however, they were forcing Slicing Shadow to go on the defensive; otherwise, he would face a complete defeat in the battle.
"Indeed, the most poisonous heart belongs to a woman!" Slicing Shadow hesitated and timidly drew his sword, then...
With a single stroke, he slashed through the air!
Under that sword light, it was so dazzling that it seemed to darken the entire sky for a moment. Even facing the enemy directly, Princess Lingli and Jiang Xue were both meticulous thinkers but were still startled by his strength, which contrasted sharply with his appearance.
By the time they adjusted to that sword light, the blade was already at Ling Li's brow!
"Clang!" Ice Element activated instantly, and a flash of clear light appeared as an Ice Shield blocked in front of Princess Lingli.
In such a short amount of time, there was no way to withstand that fierce strike; the Ice Shield shattered immediately. However, it bought enough time for Ling Li to unleash her Wind Dragon Technique and retreat ten zhang away.
"Interesting!" A glimmer flashed in Slicing Shadow's eyes. This round of testing had surprised him; he hadn't expected Princess Lingli and Jiang Xue to be stronger than the intelligence he had gathered from their previous encounter with Yang Fuhai.
Otherwise, even if Princess Lingli had not been struck down by his sword just now, she would have suffered severe injuries.
He understood that maintaining the initiative was hard-won and that top experts like the East Sea Dragon King were right behind him.
Do not be fooled by their current demeanor, standing there adhering to the rules without rushing forward. However, that one likely fears the hidden experts among them. Just now, my sword has completely exposed my strength to their eyes, raising their alertness. As long as my precious daughter and beloved partner are in danger, they will definitely act at the first opportunity!
“Sea Dragon Technique!”
The mere mention of this name caught Jiang Xue and Princess Lingli off guard. Could there really be a technique called Sea Dragon Technique in this world? They had not only never seen it but had never even heard of such a name related to Dragon Arts.
However.
Now they were about to witness it firsthand.
A sensation akin to being submerged in the ocean washed over them. The originally open space seemed to have something added, and the surroundings became blurred. Princess Lingli was somewhat fine, but Jiang Xue immediately felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation, as if… she was not in the air but had been thrown into the ocean without using any Water Dragon Technique!
Moreover, their mobility was greatly hindered. When Princess Lingli attempted to activate her magical bell with Spiritual Essence again, even the transmission of her Spiritual Essence was severely affected.
“Hahaha, I heard that the beautiful women on the Western Feather Continent enjoy something called a seawater bath. Are you two ladies satisfied with this?”
“Die!” Jiang Xue reacted quickly. Although she was initially caught off guard by this sudden change and faced with such a Dragon Art that could directly alter the environment for the first time, she quickly regained her composure and immediately identified the biggest flaw in her opponent's mysterious Dragon Art!
Unfortunately, he did not know her expertise in Dragon Arts!
“Absolute Ice Domain!” A strong chill radiated from Jiang Xue, quickly freezing the entire area.
This move would normally be considered a betrayal for Princess Lingli, who was not adept at ice-type Spiritual Essence. However, since the air around them was not real seawater, a massive air bubble formed that completely isolated Princess Lingli from the ice layers. Then a stream of Spiritual Essence fell from above and shattered the entire ice layer. This time, the angle and force of the attack were perfectly controlled; most of the shattered ice chunks flew toward the warships in the ocean, with only a small portion affecting the battlefield where both sides clashed.
Moreover, as the ice layer dissipated, the water-type Spiritual Essence within it was expelled, no longer affecting their movements or the flow of their Spiritual Essence!
Princess Lingli showed no hesitation, as if she had practiced the combined attack with Jiang Xue countless times. As the ice layer began to crack, she struck out with both palms, aiming directly at Slicing Shadow.
A wave of water silently formed around Slicing Shadow.
Slicing Shadow smirked slightly; although the layer of water was subtle, what was more terrifying was its apparent thinness. If he foolishly attempted to break through and evade this strike, he would fall right into the opponent's trap.
Moreover, it seemed that the opponent had underestimated his sword!
"A Sword Cuts Through the Void!"
A powerful sound wave combined with Princess Lingli's formidable palm strength pressed toward Slicing Shadow from all directions. However, after one strike, Heaven and Earth Spirit calmed completely, and Princess Lingli's power was unexpectedly "severed" from her connection to Spiritual Essence by his single sword strike!
"Hmph! The first talented woman of the Four Seas Dragon Clan! Eastern Sea Princess!" Slicing Shadow's expression now appeared incredibly arrogant, completely different from his previous low profile and feigned weakness.
Slicing Shadow excelled in military affairs; without the recognition and cultivation of the Human Emperor, he would not have achieved his current status. Fundamentally, he harbored a deep-seated disdain for those born into noble families or high status!
Today, he intended to shatter that pride completely!
With the next sword strike, he aimed directly at Lingli's face!
"Today, I will make you taste the defeat of being trampled underfoot by others!"
"Be careful!" The voice came from Princess Lingli. Although it appeared that she was at the forefront now, this was merely an attack pattern she had already practiced with Jiang Xue. The true killing move to counter Slicing Shadow's strike would come from Jiang Xue!
Both women did not expect that the Sword Momentum was not only a thunderous strike but also a continuous downpour like spring rain! Essentially, these two concepts are contradictory. If you want to unleash the maximum power of Sword Momentum, you must gather your strength and wait. However, if you wish to confront with Quick Sword, you must reserve your energy. This is an unchanging principle; even if your strength reaches the heavens, like Wang Long who has attained the Creation Realm, it would still hold true.
"How did it go, Sister Jiang Xue?" Seeing that Jiang Xue's attack was ineffective after clashing with Slicing Shadow, Princess Lingli immediately stepped forward to prevent Slicing Shadow from launching another Quick Sword.
"This person's strength is formidable; we cannot be careless. Moreover, his techniques are too strange." Even Jiang Xue, known for her composure, couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.
This Slicing Shadow was definitely of the same type as her! Both could catch their opponents off guard with various techniques in moments of urgency; the more chaotic the situation, the more their ability to seize opportunities would shine.
However, one’s quick wit and calmness were evident, while Slicing Shadow hid behind a facade of deliberate weakness and nonchalance!
This was undoubtedly a formidable rival!
"Strange techniques?" Princess Lingli didn't quite understand her choice of words.
"Hehe, it's nothing. Let's stay focused; we can definitely defeat him! He isn't as strong as he appears!" This was the first time for both Jiang Xue and Princess Lingli to fight as main commanders!
On the surface, it seemed that the opponent achieved such results by holding back during attacks; in other words, his strength was greater.
But Jiang Xue had already seen through this. The power of an attack could deceive people, but that relentless momentum could never be faked! This guy was definitely relying on his unique Martial Arts to bluff!
