Chapter 1126: Chapter 1127: The Domineering Wu Chengjue Chapter 1126: Chapter 1127: The Domineering Wu Chengjue “Rustle,” the oil-paper umbrella slowly opened.
In an instant, the arena fell silent. Not only did the stage beco still, but an extraordinary hush enveloped the surrounding audience seats as well. In the very mont Wu Chengjue opened his umbrella, an incomparable burst of icy cold Qi erupted. At that mont, ti seed to freeze as a terrifying silence and depth engulfed everything.
The golden figure in the void, holding a knife, suddenly stiffened in his movents. His unstoppable montum ceased abruptly, and the entire sky turned into a black and white backdrop. Only Wu Chengjue stood out in vivid color.
It was as if silence had fallen on everyone’s ears simultaneously, engulfing them in utter quiet, completely plunging into silence.
The next second, to the shock and horror of the audience, the golden figure in the void saw his knife intent suddenly lt away in the ice and snow, silently collapsing into golden fragnts that turned into pinpricks of starlight, dispersing between heaven and earth.
“When I open my umbrella, all powers and techniques beco useless.”
“Today, I will not kill you. Get down, will you?”
Wu Chengjue said indifferently. The next second, Liu Jinshui only felt a blackout before his eyes, his world spinning, and then, inexplicably, he found himself beneath the stage, his pupils filled with shock and horror.
“Damn it, what the hell, he’s that strong? It’s gotta be a fake, right?”
“How did he cultivate to instantly defeat Ol’Fatty?”
Liu Jinshui’s face was filled with shock, cursing under his breath. He might not look the part in everyday life, but when it cos to cultivation level, few peers could match him—he was confident that he could even fight his fellow senior brothers and sisters. But against Wu Chengjue, he felt too bizarre; the invading Frost Qi left his body completely immobile. How was he supposed to fight like that?
To encounter such talent in the Heavenly Immortal Realm was unheard of, clearly overpowering him.
“Senior brother, don’t take it to heart. After all, she’s the Deputy Helmsman of the Eastern Continent’s Enforcent Team. You and I could sense, more or less, her strength is on par with our first and second senior sisters.”
Li Xiaobai comforted Liu Jinshui by patting his shoulder.
Su Yunbing spoke indifferently, “She’s far behind , sixth junior brother, you should start practicing. Those resources you’ve swindled can be put to use now.”
“Correct, resources remain re dirt if not used. Only by utilizing them effectively can they truly be considered real assets.”
Ye Wushuang nodded and added her thoughts.
“That young girl’s oil-paper umbrella is no ordinary object. Just now when the umbrella opened, I could vaguely sense the inklings of Domain Power. It seems she has already stepped one foot into the Half-Saint Realm and could break through at any mont.”
Yan Zuzi squinted slightly, speaking softly.
“Indeed, she has essentially reached the end of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. She has not rushed to break through but instead cald her heart to consolidate her foundation and refine her Frost Qi. To achieve this, she has already surpassed many geniuses by a step.”
“When she breaks through the Half-Saint Realm, she will likely leap into the ranks of the mighty elders, not to be compared with ordinary cultivators. She’s quite the talent and has so of my old prowess, although there’s still a gap compared to .”
Yitilou smacked his lips, subtly praising himself once again.
“That makes sense. She must indeed be soone of great talent and determination; otherwise, she would certainly not possess such strength and cultivation level.”
Fourth Senior Brother Yang Chen nodded his agreent. He had great respect for Wu Chengjue’s cultivation level; unlike them, gifted beings, she had truly worked her way up here step by step. Such spirit and determination were admirable.
On the stage.
Wu Chengjue retracted his oiled paper umbrella, and in an instant, the world of ice and snow vanished without a trace. The bone-chilling cold that enveloped the arena dissipated suddenly, leaving the cultivators in the spectator seats feeling a release from their stifled breaths. Once again, they could breathe freely.
Wu Chengjue’s feet moved lightly like petals drifting on water as her figure floated down, landing in a secluded corner of the vicinity.
Long Aotian imdiately greeted her, “Immortal Wu’s dominance is truly impressive. The Deputy Helmsman of the Eastern Continent’s Enforcent Team wields frost Qi so masterfully, I am in great admiration!”
His heart was filled with astonishnt. The strength of a Super Sect Disciple didn’t need to be spoken for, as just two or three matches on the platform were enough to demonstrate their formidable presence. Especially that Ol’Fatty Liu Jinshui’s peerless strike, which resonated with a domineering blade intent that could stand tall in the void, sent a shiver of terror to the depths of his soul. He had no doubt that, without external forces to aid him, he would have certainly t his demise against that strike, with no opportunity to retaliate.
But just now, Wu Chengjue had rely used one move. With the opening of her umbrella and an outbreak of frost Qi, she effortlessly extinguished the golden blade light. Such strength and cultivation level were far beyond his reach. Moreover, as a proud descendent of the Blue Dragon Race from Ice Dragon Island, who specialized in cultivating frost Qi and possessed the ice-blood lineage, theoretically, he should be the divine master controlling the ice and snow. Nevertheless, Wu Chengjue’s arrival shattered his confidence as he shockingly realized that the frost Qi she wielded, both in quality and quantity, far surpassed that of his own esteed Dragon Race status.
In other words, if he were to oppose Wu Chengjue, she could potentially freeze his frost Qi, and the very thought sent tremors through his heart.
He felt fortunate that he had heeded his master’s words and promised a hefty sum for her aid. Otherwise, he would have likely failed to advance even beyond the first round today.
With such a strong support at his side, his chances of winning the platform battle had increased significantly.
“It was just a trivial matter, not worth ntioning. Where is the Immortal Plant?”
Wu Chengjue still maintained her unchanging frosty deanor as she spoke indifferently.
Long Aotian was not offended and still had a smile on his face. He took out a jade box and presented it with both hands, “Inside this jade box is the Thousand Year Welcoming Cold Immortal Plant, aged five thousand three hundred years. Though it might not be as precious as the Ten Thousand Years Cold Immortal Plant, it’s still infinitely valuable. I believe that after consuming it, soone like Immortal Wu, who specializes in frost Qi, will reap only benefits without any harm.”
“Indeed, it’s a fine item. I’ll take it, and we’ll be even.”
Wu Chengjue took the jade box, opened it to take a look, and a hint of satisfaction appeared in her beautiful eyes. This quality of Thousand Year Welcoming Cold Immortal Plant could only be found on Ice Dragon Island. The outside world’s auctions only offered strains that were one to two thousand years old—all flowing from Ice Dragon Island. She had previously bought several that were less than satisfactory. It seed her visit to Ice Dragon Island was the right choice.
“Cough, cough, Immortal, please don’t rush. There’s another favor I’d like to ask.”
Seeing her turning to leave without dragging her feet, Long Aotian quickly spoke up.
Wu Chengjue narrowed her eyes, “Speak.”
“I believe there’s potential for a long-term partnership between us. For the next match, my master has arranged for you to face Li Xiaobai. If you could defeat him in the second round and then deliberately lose to in the third round, my master will teach you an Ice Dragon Island Secret Technique, ‘Ice Dragon Burst.’ How does that sound?”
“This is a technique that uses frost Qi to montarily stimulate the blood Qi within the body. One will beco weak after using it, but during its use, one’s strength can more than double. Even those without the bloodline of the Dragon Race can execute it,” Long Aotian explained.
Wu Chengjue said, “Let’s inspect the goods first, then we can talk business.”
“Alright, sure thing. Please, Immortal, take a good look.”
Long Aotian flipped his wrist, took out an ancient to, and handed it over. Wu Chengjue received it and quickly flipped through it. Starting from the first page, she rapidly scanned each one. Her movents were swift, and after flipping through it multiple tis, she casually returned the book, as though she had rely glanced through it.
“What do you think, Immortal?” Long Aotian asked, not noticing the unusual gleam in Wu Chengjue’s eyes. His face was full of expectancy.
“It’s settled then, hand it over to .”
