Layers of ice appeared on Wu Kuo's body, his face was also covered with frost, causing his face to twist slightly.
Not only did Wu Kuo's awakened bloodline reach the Earth Level, it was also of the ice attribute. The power of the ice should not have caused Wu Kuo any harm, on the contrary, the power of the extreme cold should have become Wu Kuo's assistance.
The colder it was, the more Wu Kuo should be like a fish in water.
However, at this moment, Wu Kuo's performance seemed to be unable to bear the cold. It was obvious how scary the cold air that permeated the surface of Wu Kuo's body was. It was already beyond Wu Kuo's endurance.
However, after a short period of time, Wu Kuo's aura soared, his face instantly flushed red and the frost on his face melted.
Actually, Wu Kuo did not increase his strength by much. The main reason was that he had recovered the large amount of Genuine Qi that he had expended previously, as well as forcefully changed his condition to a certain state.
In this state, Wu Kuo would be able to maintain his peak state for the rest of the battle.
Naturally, this secret art would come with quite a large price. It would consume quite a bit of Essence and would take at least three to four months to recover.
However, in order to win, Wu Kuo couldn't care less.
With Wu Kuo as the center, a large amount of gelid qi violently spread out. The gelid qi almost turned into a fog, which was extremely terrifying.
At this time, if one had a Genuine Returning Stage, even if one's realm reached perfection, if one did not have too many powerful techniques, the moment they charged into this icy mist, it was likely that they would be completely frozen within a few breaths of time.
Ice mist surged as ice swords appeared one after another.
The length of the ice sword was not big, only the length of an adult's palm. However, there were a lot of them floating around Wu Kuo.
In the resting area, Dong Shengjun from Guangping County frowned and said, "So he planned to use this move."
Gu Yiyu also saw through Wu Kuo's intentions, and said: "This Dragonformed Ice Slaughtering Sword is a Middle Grade of Earth Level sword move, and although it's powerful, it's not something that can be casually displayed with Genuine Returning Stage, and it's extremely difficult to cultivate."
"For a sword cultivator with Yuan Combination Stage, mastering this move is also very difficult."
[Dragonformed Ice Slaughtering Sword], in terms of profound strength, could be considered superior. Its power was strong, and its difficulty in cultivating it was naturally extraordinary.
Gu Yiyu sighed: "You and I haven't grasped this sword move yet, since it doesn't match the bloodline attribute of the two of us. Although Wu Kuo's bloodline attribute is similar, he's only of Genuine Returning Stage, how could he grasp it?"
No wonder he had to cast the secret technique [Point Transforming Ice Technique] earlier, using a special technique and strength, through a special acupoint, he stimulated the bloodline power in his body to release even more cold energy into his internal organs. This would fit the requirements to execute the [Transforming Ice Slaughtering Sword], and then through a secret technique, he forcefully performed this sword technique.
"However, in this way, it will cause great harm to the internal organs. Even the Fourth Rank and Innate Body would not be able to withstand it."
"After this, regardless of whether Wu Kuo can win or not, we will not be able to fight again today. Furthermore, we will also need to rest for a long time later."
Gu Yiyu never thought that Wu Kuang would, in order to win, forcefully execute a Middle Grade of Earth Level sword move, which he had not completely grasped.
Generally speaking, the power of a sacred art far surpassed that of a normal martial art.
However, that would depend on how they compared. A low-rank Earth Realm martial art was naturally inferior to a low-rank Earth Realm divine ability.
Middle Grade of Earth Level martial arts …
Actually, a normal Middle Grade of Earth Level martial art is not necessarily stronger than a low-grade Earth Realm martial art. After all, the power of a martial art depends on the state of the warrior, the Genuine Qi, and the mastery of the martial art.
As for divine abilities, they also gained an additional layer of bloodline power.
If the power of a bloodline that was at the peak of the Genuine Returning Stage was profound, then in the hands of this peak Genuine Returning Stage, the power of a low-grade earth-step divine ability would be even stronger than the power of a Middle Grade of Earth Level martial art.
However, if a warrior could awaken a low-grade Earth Realm divine ability, then the power of the low-grade Earth Realm divine ability might not be comparable to a normal Middle Grade of Earth Level martial art, much less a sword move like the Dragon Transformation Ice Killing Sword.
In fact, as a martial artist's cultivation increases, the martial arts will gradually replace the sacred art as their killing move.
Because divine abilities were limited by the bloodline, if the level of the bloodline was too low, then the divine abilities would help a martial artist as their cultivation level increased. In addition, divine abilities were difficult to awaken, they would be replaced by higher level martial arts.
Most martial artists did not have a bloodline on them, so even if the Red Dragon Guard participants all had a bloodline, these people were dragons and phoenixes. Outside, there were plenty of those who did not have a bloodline awakened.
Even if it was the blood of Awakened, how many were high ranked? Sooner or later, it would be discarded by a Xiantian realm martial artist.
To be able to be useful to martial artists until they become a All-power Stage Grandmaster would allow them to increase their strength by a large margin, at the very least, they would have a high-grade Earth rank bloodline or even a quasi-sky rank bloodline. However, this kind of bloodline Awakened is extremely rare.
Wu Kuo did not awaken any low-grade Earth Realm martial skills, but right now he was using a secret technique and forced to use the Middle Grade of Earth Level and sword skill [Melting Dragon Ice Killing Sword]. Its power was not weak either, roughly seventy to eighty percent of Chen Yi's powers.
The reason it couldn't compare to Chen Yi was, firstly, that Chen Yi's grasp of the power of his bloodline was too deep, and secondly, that Wu Kuo had used it forcefully after all. Furthermore, Chen Yi's Genuine Returning Stage was only in itself.
Otherwise, its power would definitely be above Chen Yi's low-rank Earth Realm divine ability.
Of course, this was only temporary. If Chen Yi's [Burning Devils Body] had transformed and reached the fifth or sixth stage, then the strength of the low-grade Earth Rank divine ability displayed would still be stronger than the Middle Grade of Earth Level sword technique.
No matter what, Wu Kuo, who had unleashed his [Ice Dragon's Killing Sword], had once again made the situation difficult to fathom.
Countless ice swords whistled through the air and gathered together, forming an ice dragon made of ice swords. The ice dragon opened its mouth and roared, causing endless ice shards to explode.
At the same time, Chen Yi had already finished all nine ice men, one punch for one.
Gazing at the huge ice dragon that was gathering in the air, Chen Yi's expression was solemn. This move made him feel threatened.
Just by looking at its appearance, it was a ice dragon whose entire body was filled with a terrifying cold aura. The cold aura being emitted by the ice dragon caused even the Half-step Yuan Combination Stage to feel fear.
The Fourth Rank and Innate Body simply could not withstand such a cold.
Even though Chen Yi's overall body was now infinitely close to the Fifth Stage, he still felt his body gradually stiffen.
From the essence, Chen Yi seemed to see more than ten thousand sword Qis gushing out, the endless sword aura shaking the world.
The inside of this ice dragon was impressively imbued with heaven-shaking sword energy.
Roar!
The ice dragon rushed at Chen Yi with a speed that completely didn't match the huge body. Chen Yi dodged quickly but the ice dragon kept up with him. Even though Chen Yi's overall physical fitness was now very close to a level five Innate Body, he still couldn't get rid of the ice dragon.
"We can't be swallowed!" Chen Yi's gaze turned cold.
These ice dragons were formed from a combination of one ice sword after another. Each ice sword was made up of Wu Kuo's bloodline power, Innate Genuine Qi, and sword energy.
The moment Chen Yi was swallowed, it was as if he was trapped in a meat grinder made of endless ice swords. Even if his comprehensive quality was close to level 5, he would still be seriously injured.
If it was any other ordinary Half-step Yuan Combination Stage, just by relying on a top Fourth Rank Innate Body, it would not be able to last for long before they were twisted into mincemeat.
At this moment, the Ice Phoenix, who was flapping her wings in the distance, suddenly charged over.
Previously, the Ice Phoenix only dared to not come close to Chen Yi from afar as it was afraid of being blown away by Chen Yi's punch. But now, under Wu Kuo's order, it charged straight at Chen Yi, not caring about its own life.
Although the Ice Phoenix had a bit of intelligence, it was ultimately formed by Wu Kuo's sacred art. If Wu Kuo did not take the initiative to control it, then it was true that he would be scared to the point of not daring to approach Chen Yi because of that bit of intelligence.
But once Wu Kuo controlled it, he naturally had no other choice.
The ice phoenix didn't do much damage to Chen Yi. Chen Yi turned around and punched the ice phoenix.
However, at the level of Chen Yi and the ice dragon, an instant of time was enough to close the gap between them. Chen Yi's punch destroyed the ice phoenix and his body uncontrollably stopped for an instant.
Forget it, chasing them and running away like this is pretty boring. Chen Yi sighed. He originally wanted to keep the One With the Sword as a trump card to deal with the eight-to-four situation. Now, he had no choice but to reveal it.
Chen Yi's expression turned cold. The transformed Burning Demon roared and the flames around his body exploded with a loud bang. The transformed Burning Demon did not retreat, but instead charged straight at him!
The sound of swords clashing resounded throughout the world. There were many practitioners who wore swords on their bodies today, including Dong Shengjun and Gu Yiyu. All of them wore long swords made from divine weapons.
Right now, these long swords were all trembling, as if something was attracting them and causing them to be unable to wait any longer, wanting to resonate with something that was attracting them.
Everyone looked at the stone platform in shock. This was … One With the Sword?
