A Sect from a Spirit Vein
Chapter 193 - 162: Cold Ice Boundary Technique
Exotic Talisman! Jiang Qingfeng was startled and suddenly the Orange Splendor Lamp radiated light in all directions. The layers of light seemed to want to intercept the Purple Talisman. At the same time, she flipped her palm, a bright blue Treasure Pearl held in her palm, waves surged and rolled out from the pearl.
This was her new Magical Artifact, a High-Tier Support Spiritual Artifact, the Tide Listening Pearl. Inside this pearl, it can store three thousand liters of water, and it’s nourished day and night with Spiritual Qi, making the water manipulation much more flexible than ordinary water. Using this water to perform Water Element Technique, its Mighty Power is enhanced.
But just at this moment, four Purple Talismans flashed explosively, without any sound, yet the purple mist suddenly expanded, hissing like strong acid corroding, eroding large holes on the layers of light from the Orange Splendor Lamp.
This was precisely the Exotic Talisman, a secret technique of the Spirit Talisman Sect, specialized in breaking Defensive Spiritual Artifact shields.
The next moment, the sound of talismans breaking the sky echoed, dozens of paper talismans with various colors flew out through the holes!
Listening to the crowd’s exclamations, Zhang Guangzhong’s face showed a hint of pride.
Indeed, for a Talisman Cultivator like him, the arena duel was advantageous.
In normal combat, talismans fly slowly, single talismans find it hard to hit opponents. If it’s not a sneak attack but a face-to-face confrontation, either use techniques or Magical Artifacts to restrict opponent’s actions, or go for quantity, employing an all-covering method so opponents can’t evade.
However, in this arena, movement range is restricted, making it impossible to evade freely, so the effort of restricting the opponent’s actions can be spared, the range restriction of the arena also ensures the concentration of talisman power. As long as one fully employs the talisman wave like a talisman sea, victory can be achieved.
Seems my luck isn’t bad. Although I drew the host Jiang Qingfeng, yet Fellow Daoist Jiang’s cultivation isn’t high, victory shouldn’t be a problem.
At this moment Zhang Guangzhong raised the Sword Pointing and shouted: "Decree!"
Dozens of talismans suddenly lit up in various colors, large and small Fireballs, long and short wooden spears, Azure Wind Blades, faint yellow Earth Bombs, all kinds of attacks obscured half the arena, rushing toward Jiang Qingfeng.
As these attacks approached, the Tide Listening Pearl in Jiang Qingfeng’s hand spun swiftly, surging waves gushed from the pearl one after another. She let out a light shout, the massive water flow transformed into layered waves, like a giant wall, pushing toward Zhang Guangzhong.
On one side were dozens of varied color attacks, on the other side was a giant azure water wall. From above, the visual effects were quite enchanting, spectators applauded and cheered, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle.
Dozens of attacks hit the water wall, the explosion sounds roared as one, the water mist soared, the waves surged, massive amounts of water splashed, blocked by the arrays around the arena, not reaching into the audience.
This strike was evenly matched, the attacks dispersed, the water wall collapsed, but the water mist still soared, the two immediately struck again.
Zhang Guangzhong raised both hands, paper talismans flew endlessly from his sleeves, first came four more purple Exotic Talismans, aiming to repeat the same tactic, intending to exhaust.
After all, activating talismans doesn’t consume much Spiritual Power, while Jiang Qingfeng’s Water Control Technique, though good for both offense and defense, consumes quite a lot of Spiritual Power. With their similar cultivation levels, Qingfeng absolutely can’t hold out first.
Purple Talismans corroded large holes in the halo of the Orange Splendor Lamp once again, this time, continuous talismans seemed like a light band, pouring from Zhang Guangzhong’s sleeve, rushing into the halo holes, striking toward Jiang Qingfeng.
Jiang Qingfeng stood amidst the water mist, looking at the water flowing throughout the entire arena, facing the incoming talismans, she suddenly smiled slightly.
She clapped her palms heavily, and with a crash, the water in the field rose up, then smashed down like a torrential rain.
Zhang Guangzhong was puzzled, he activated his Defensive Spiritual Artifact, to block these water beads.
What’s the point of this? Does Fellow Daoist Jiang think simply wetting the talismans will render them invalid? That’s too arrogant, my Spirit Talismans are entirely different from the common goods available on the market...
Wait, why is it suddenly so cold!
In an instant, visible cold mist suddenly enveloped the entire arena, the crashing raindrops abruptly transformed into ice pearls, striking the Defensive Light Shield with snapping sounds. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
The talismans, initially soaked by the water beads all over the sky, instantly grew a thick ice shell!
Zhang Guangzhong inwardly felt something was wrong, his Divine Sense moved, trying to activate the talismans, but only the leading dozen talismans lit up, a wave of attacks hit in front of Jiang Qingfeng, Qingfeng waved a hand, the rushing water below her feet suddenly transformed into a thick layer of ice, blocking the attack.
The remaining dozens of talismans fell heavily to the ground, the ice shell containing Spiritual Power delayed Zhang Guangzhong’s communication, causing the talismans to break apart before activation.
Ice Technique!
Zhang Guangzhong was greatly shocked, before he could react, the water flowing across the arena completely transformed into solid ice, more than ten ice spears as thick as an arm shot forth, the ice pearls clattering in midair suddenly turned into roaring ice bombs, with a crash, the two attacks combined, shattering the Defensive Light Shield.
He quickly raised both hands, each holding a glittering gold Spirit Talisman, but heard a cracking sound below, the water flow previously spreading to his feet now became a thick ice layer, firmly rooting him in place.
The ice layer suddenly quaked, cold ice transformed into swords, spears, blades, and halberds, piercing toward his body!
And in midair, hundreds of fist-sized ice bombs roared down upon him.
Unable to evade the attack, if this were a life-and-death battle, Zhang Guangzhong would naturally employ his powerful move, perhaps exchanging his life for serious injury to the enemy, but here after all, is the arena.
"I lost." He reluctantly lowered his arms, the ice-formed swords, spears, blades, and halberds halted before his skin, ice bombs brushed against his body, striking the arena with deafening noise.
Too careless, thought the arena trapped the opponent, not realizing, it actually trapped me. Water waves spread across the arena earlier, when Jiang Qingfeng activated Ice Technique, the entire arena became her domain.
Who would’ve known, that this Yunshan Sect Fairy had such hidden methods.
Zhang Guangzhong sighed, finally asked: "Fellow Daoist Jiang, your methods are extraordinary, may I ask what the name of this Ice Technique is?"
Jiang Qingfeng politely replied: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, thank you for going easy on me. This technique is called Cold Ice Boundary Technique."
The referee below loudly announced: "The match is over, the victor is Jiang Qingfeng of the Yunshan Sect!"
The scene erupted with enthusiastic cheers, Jiang Qingfeng stood gracefully on the arena covered with thick ice, nodding to all sides, like a transcendent Fairy.
The watching cultivators applauded vigorously, Ice Technique being a high-end magic technique, is rarely seen by Loose Cultivators, today they watched with great pleasure.
The Yunshan Sect Fairy is truly extraordinary!
Jiang Qingfeng walked off the arena, smiling radiantly, waved toward the box where Lu Qian sat. Such a bright smile, rarely seen on the dignified and gentle senior sister’s face, made Lu Qian momentarily dazed, feeling infinite tenderness in his heart.
Senior sister, you did it.
Junior brother, I did it.
