282. Three Divine Abilities of Worry-free Sovereign
In the void, Lin Fei and Worry-free Sovereign stood in confrontation. Worry-free Sovereign's gaze was now fully centered on Lin Fei.
Challenge!
It was clear to everyone. This was Lin Fei challenging Worry-free Sovereign!
Whispers spread among the crowd. While they recognized Lin Fei's ascension to Martial Sovereign, they couldn't believe he was actually challenging Worry-free Sovereign.
Worry-free Sovereign, in the past, joint force with Illusion Heart True Person, contending against three major powers' Martial Sovereigns and Golden Core True Persons. Even though the outcome of those battles remained unknown, the very existence of Illusion Worry City was ultimately acknowledged by these three powers. This recognition itself testified to the might of the two city leaders of Illusion Worry City.
"Quite bold of you, Sovereign Lin!" Worry-free Sovereign's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. He had initially thought that Lin Fei had Wind Sovereign's backing and even anticipated a combined assault from both of them. However, he was wrong. This challenge wasn't from Wind Sovereign, nor was it a collaborative effort from both Wind Sovereign and Lin Fei. It was solely Lin Fei!
A mix of shock and fury filled Worry-free Sovereign. He wasn't underestimating Lin Fei. In fact, he now viewed him with great importance. Wind Sovereign, being no fool, was aware of his own strength. Yet, he still allowed Lin Fei to challenge Worry-free Sovereign. That, in itself, hinted at something: Lin Fei was no ordinary contender.
"Divine Ability, Frost Seal of a Hundred Miles!"
Wind Sovereign took action. With his move, a Divine Ability was unleashed. A radiant white light burst forth, causing the surrounding void to seemingly freeze instantly. Especially around Lin Fei, everything was rapidly encased in ice, even his flesh. This was one of Worry-free Sovereign's three Divine Abilities, the Frost Seal of a Hundred Miles!
Given free reign, Worry-free Sovereign could truly freeze a stretch of a hundred miles with this ability. Even though it's a Lesser Divine Ability, its power was formidable.
Moreover, Worry-free Sovereign didn't merely rely on this one ability. He was well aware that a single Lesser Divine Ability might not suffice against Lin Fei. Hence, a second layer of radiant light shone brightly from the Life Wheel behind Worry-free Sovereign.
"Divine Ability, Shadow Fist of Ten Thousand!"
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
Lin Fei witnessed countless fists emanating an immense force, surging toward him like a relentless storm.
The combination of Frost Seal of a Hundred Miles and Shadow Fist of Ten Thousand created a force that was formidable. When paired together, their might could rival a Great Divine Ability and was arguably even more potent than most of them.
"Frost Seal of a Hundred Miles!"
Almost reflexively, the Worry-free Sovereign unleashed his Divine Ability. Immediately, a freezing chill enveloped him, ensuring that anyone who approached would be instantly frozen. This was both a form of defense and protection.
Divine Abilities could be quite diverse and peculiar. Worry-free Sovereign quickly deduced the nature of Lin Fei's Black Wind Prison - it seemed to isolate one's senses, rendering them directionless. As long as he defended himself, he could gradually break through this Divine Ability.
It had to be said that Worry-free Sovereign's combat experience was indeed vast.
After the Black Wind Prison isolated Worry-free Sovereign's senses, a gentle wind seemed to rise around him. This wind, though seemingly mild, was the Bone-Eroding Wind, capable of reducing a person to bare bones in an instant, without causing any pain.
"Master!"
Many witnessed this, and Jiang Tianyun couldn't help but shout, warning Worry-free Sovereign. Nobody expected the battle between Lin Fei and Worry-free Sovereign to take such a dramatic turn. Worry-free Sovereign, who had been dominating and seemed invincible, was suddenly pushed into a corner by Lin Fei's counter-attack.
Being isolated from his senses and now threatened by the Bone-Eroding Wind that could turn him into a skeleton, this wasn't merely a Great Divine Ability; it was a top-tier, insidiously vicious one. The kind that guarantees severe harm, if not death.
However, Worry-free Sovereign did not need Jiang Tianyun's reminder. He was already alert when the Bone-Eroding Wind approached.
A bright light emanated from the third layer of Worry-free Sovereign's Life Wheel, signaling his third Divine Ability, an ability he seldom used.
"Divine Ability, Quicksand!"
Very few had seen Worry-free Sovereign's third Divine Ability. Even in his battle against Wind Sovereign, he only had to use two of his Divine Abilities to secure victory. Now, he was forced to display Quicksand in front of everyone.
The Bone-Eroding Wind continued to blow, and Worry-free Sovereign, already reduced to a skeletal state, transformed into countless grains of quicksand. These grains were then scattered in all directions, breaking through Lin Fei's Black Wind Prison. In the blink of an eye, the quicksand grains converged, reforming Worry-free Sovereign.
Worry-free Sovereign had finally escaped! His third Divine Ability was purely a life-saving measure. In some sense, it was akin to an undying body. Once transformed into quicksand, as long as the quicksand remained intact, it would be incredibly challenging to kill him.
However, it was undeniable that this time, Worry-free Sovereign was defeated. Forced to resort to his third Divine Ability in a desperate bid for survival, he was utterly defeated.
