Chapter 2176 Reversal (4)

Mo Lianxing, her body trembling from the exertion, stood tall. Gone was the aura of a desperate fighter; replaced by an aura of chilling stillness, an unyielding presence that defied comprehension. Her eyes, once filled with fear, now glowed with an icy blue light, an echo of the power surging within her.

"Huh?" A gasp escaped Mo Lianxing's lips as realization dawned upon her. The mysterious entity within her, the source of her newfound power, wasn't just a source of strength, it was a being with the ability to manipulate time itself!

But before Mo Lianxing could fully comprehend this revelation, she needed to act. With a newfound clarity born of the slowed time, she saw an opening.

Seizing this opportunity, Mo Lianxing channeled the remaining icy energy within her, focusing it onto the Frostmourn Spear. The spear, humming with a renewed intensity, pulsed with a blinding blue light.

In this slowed-down world, Mo Lianxing's movements appeared fluid and graceful, a stark contrast to the sluggishness that gripped everything else.

With a swiftness that defied the warped perception of time, Mo Lianxing vanished from her position. She reappeared moments later above Yun Lintian.

Shi Xuan, caught off guard by the sudden shift in the flow of time, stood partially transformed, his draconic aura struggling to maintain its hold. He wanted to stop Mo Lianxing but it was too late.

The expressions of Lan Qinghe and the others around Yun Lintian changed drastically. However, their bodies couldn't move no matter what.

A cruel smile played on Mo Lianxing's lips. With a surge of power, she thrust the Frostmourn Spear forward, aiming for a vital point on Yun Lintian's head.

Just as the tip of the spear neared Yun Lintian, a gentle-looking wall of water materialized out of nowhere, completely blocking the spear.

Mo Lianxing's spear trembled in mid-air, the tip inches away from the shimmering water barrier that had inexplicably materialized. Disbelief contorted her icy features as she stared at the unassuming figure of an old man, who stood calmly beside Yun Lintian, his hand outstretched towards the spear.

This person was none other than Tian He!

Tian He looked at Mo Lianxing calmly and said. "Don't you think you've overstepped your bounds?"

He seemed to speak to the person who lent the power to her.

Mo Lianxing, her defiance a flicker in the face of Tian He's overwhelming power, watched in horror as the blizzard she unleashed dissipated harmlessly.

The borrowed strength, once a raging inferno within her, now dwindled to a faint ember. The chilling cold that had replaced it intensified, gnawing at her very life force.

"This stops here." Tian He spoke calmly.

However, a swirling vortex of grey light suddenly materialized behind Mo Lianxing. It pulsed with an otherworldly energy, a stark contrast to the gentle blue light emanating from Tian He's hand.

Tian He, his gaze fixed on the vortex, spoke calmly. "Your best chance has gone."

There was no response from the other side.

A surge of energy erupted from the vortex in the next moment, whipping Mo Lianxing's weakened body towards it. The vortex then vanished from the spot as abruptly as it appeared, leaving no trace behind.

Tian He stared at the spot where the vortex had vanished for a moment before raising his hand slightly. In that instant, his hand turned black, ravaged by a horrific frostbite.

Shi Xuan, in his human form, came over and said. "Did you let her go on purpose?"

Tian He glanced at him and said. "I couldn't stop it."

Shi Xuan was surprised. "Well. You are old after all."

Thud!

At this moment, Han Bingling fell to her knees and kowtowed towards Tian He. "Senior, please save my man!"

Tian He turned around and waved his hand, bringing Han Bingling up. "I can't save him... But I know who can." He said calmly.
