Xue Qingyu remained silent, her figure like a cold wind in winter, swiftly darting to the front of the formation. She slowly raised her hands, and a piercing chill began to gather at her fingertips; it was the Xue Family's ancestral technique, Bing Xin Jue.
The cold air converged in her palms, gradually forming a crystal-clear ice blade that shimmered with a heart-stopping glow. "Break!" Xue Qingyu shouted softly, and the ice blade shot forth like an arrow released from its bow, striking fiercely at the weak point of the formation.
The Light Barrier rippled as if a massive stone had been thrown into a lake, creating layers of waves. Soon after, the Light Barrier began to shatter under the sharpness of the ice blade, dissipating into countless specks of light in the air.
The members of the Xue Family had yet to recover from this sudden turn of events when another layer of earthy yellow Light Barrier quietly rose, acting as a shield for this area. This unexpected change caused the expressions of the Xue Family members to shift; they understood that this must be yet another tactic from Zhang Yi.
Outside the formation, Zhang Yi watched with a sinister smile creeping across his lips, letting out a chilling laugh. "Xue Qingyu, even if you can break my carefully arranged Zhou Tian Sealing Formation, you surely cannot overcome this Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Zhen, can you? This formation is derived from ancient texts and has been refined through countless days and nights of calculations. Its intricacies are not something you can easily comprehend!"
Xue Qingyu's expression hardened; she knew Zhang Yi spoke the truth. The Dou Zhuan Xing Yi Zhen was said to harness the power of Heaven and Earth to lower the strength of those within by three minor realms while enhancing the combat power of those outside.
Taking a deep breath, she steadied her gaze and once again concentrated the power of Bing Xin Jue. The second form of Bing Xin Jue, Han Shuang, gathered in her heart. With a cold shout from Xue Qingyu, it shot forth like an ice spike in midwinter, aimed directly at the formation before her.
However, that seemingly unstoppable technique was easily deflected upon contact with the formation, as if a hot iron had met an iceberg—instantly losing all its sharpness. "Useless!" Zhang Yi's voice was as cold as the winter wind, piercing through the chaos of battle and striking at their hearts. "Since you are so stubborn, I will have to use force!"
There was no hesitation or pity in his words. With his command, the Zhang Family members surged forward like tigers descending from a mountain, attacking those trapped within the formation of the Xue Family. In an instant, it felt as though heaven and earth were being torn apart by this violent force; the sky collapsed and the earth quaked.
Although the Xue Family members were not without strength, their abilities were limited to only seventy or eighty percent due to the constraints of the formation. Faced with the ferocious onslaught of the Zhang Family, they found themselves overwhelmed and suffered heavy losses.
Blood stained the earth, and the wails of the dying echoed like a hell on earth. Xue Qingyu stood beside Xue Beibei, witnessing the brutal deaths of her beloved brothers and sisters one by one, her heart filled with indescribable sorrow.
Her fingers clenched into a fist, nails digging deep into her palm as if to absorb all the pain and anger within. A chill quietly emanated from her body, spreading rapidly like the first frost of winter.
"I will avenge you!" Xue Beibei's voice resonated in the cold wind, filled with boundless fury and determination.
Xue Qingyu gazed at the young girl from their clan, waves of shock surging within her. No wonder the elders had made an exception to allow Xue Beibei to embark on this perilous journey into the secret realm; it turned out that everything was for her impending awakening of an extraordinary constitution!
Recalling the moment of Xue Beibei's emergence, it was as if the entire Xue Family had been enveloped in endless ice and snow. In the sky, strange phenomena unfolded, with snowflakes falling endlessly, as if heaven and earth were shaken.
People in the Southern Region speculated that this was a sign of Xue Qingyu's constitution awakening, unaware that it was actually the celestial phenomenon brought forth by Xue Beibei's arrival.
Even more astonishing was that with Xue Beibei's descent, an Emperor Weapon, the Extreme Cold Ice Spear, had quietly appeared, sealed within her body by Zhun Di Lao Zu of the Xue Family using supreme divine powers.
This Emperor Weapon shimmered with a cold light, containing the ultimate power to freeze all things, waiting for the moment when Xue Beibei's constitution would awaken to reveal its true might.
