Chapter 5259 The past is the past
Hua Can's unstoppable gray sword energy, seemingly capable of severing cause and effect, was attacked from both sides by the raging red light of the Annihilation Flame and the extreme cold released by the hundred-foot-tall phantom of the Ice Crystal Girl, which was enough to freeze time and space.
Finally, for the first time, a visible stagnation appeared!
It wasn't that it was completely blocked, but rather that it was like an indestructible divine sword piercing into the incredibly viscous and exceptionally tough mixture of millennia-old ice and lava, forcibly slowing down its forward momentum.
With the power of the Emperor's Heart, Xiao Yan's aura surged like a storm.
The power of the Annihilation Flame increased several times over. The red light was no longer flickering, but transformed into a substantial wave of flames that seemed intent on burning away the void.
The primal power of ice behind him surged even more fiercely, and wherever the blue-white cold air passed, even the dissipating energy storms were frozen into dazzling ice crystals.
The space emitted a crackling sound as if it were about to freeze completely under the strain.
The unprecedented synergistic eruption of the two fundamental forces, coupled with Xiao Yan's own Hundred-Sound Emperor Mindset, made the power of the rules even more formidable.
However, Hua Can, who was suspended above the divine sword, showed no sign of solemnity or surprise on his handsome yet extremely indifferent face.
Instead... a very subtle sense of absurdity flashed through my mind, as if I were seeing ants trying to shake a giant tree.
The mockery in his eyes did not fade; instead, it intensified, as if he were watching a farce destined to be futile.
"Even if fireflies gather in thousands, how dare they presume to compete with the bright moon?" Hua Can's voice slowly rang out, each word containing a suffocating pressure, clearly echoing in the shattered void.
His hands, which were behind his back, remained motionless, and even the divine sword beneath his feet did not tremble in the slightest.
"Haha, really? Why were you so afraid to even fart before?"
As Hua Can stood there arrogantly, as if he were the most powerful person in the world, mocking laughter came from the side. Hua Can ignored it, as if he hadn't heard it at all.
As for who spoke, it was naturally Ye Beijing, who was watching the battle from the sidelines.
Hua Can's face was expressionless, but his body language revealed that he was somewhat angry and annoyed. He casually brushed his index and middle fingers together, as if he were brushing away a speck of dust from his clothes.
Things are different now; the past is the past, and the present is the present.
The moment he finished speaking, he pointed his two fingers together at the stalemated energy core below.
The struggling red and blue light, the figure pinned to the ice wall yet bursting with indomitable will—pressed down gently!
A seemingly casual movement, yet it arrived with a bang!
hum!
The stagnant gray sword energy suddenly emitted a deep hum, and the originally restrained, deathly gray light on the sword blade instantly surged!
That was no longer just sword energy; it was more like a manifestation of will imbued with the law of "annihilation"!
Chi Chi Chi -!
A series of teeth-grinding melting sounds rang out.
The raging red light of the Extinguishing Flame, powerful enough to incinerate stars, was extinguished the moment it came into contact with the gray light, like a scorching iron encountering ancient ice. The deathly gray sword energy forcefully "cut it off"!
It wasn't a defeat, nor an elimination, but a complete "erasure," as if the very concept of the flames themselves had been negated and devoured by the sword energy!
On the other side, the extreme cold released by the illusory ice crystal girl, which was enough to freeze space, was as if it had met its nemesis under the erosion of the gray sword energy.
The stagnant sword energy regained its devastating power under Hua Can's gentle pressure!
In a more domineering and powerful way than before, it extinguished the red flames, broke through the solid ice, and resolutely slashed down at Xiao Yan on the ice wall!
Space was no longer shattered, but left behind deep, dark, and seemingly empty traces of nothingness wherever the sword energy passed.
The entire Ice Abyss Ruins seemed to be enveloped in a deathly silence of despair under the influence of this will.
Hua Can hovered above the void, his robes remaining perfectly still amidst the chaotic energy currents, his gaze indifferently looking down below.
Xiao Yan, struggling to maintain his strength as it rapidly crumbles, is like a god looking down upon a mortal attempting to challenge divine might.
"After your reincarnation, I never imagined you would be so weak, and I don't understand why you would give up all your power and start over."
"Is it meaningful? It's just a pointless operation that ultimately leads to failure."
"I used to think that Your Majesty used the world as a chessboard, and placed yourself in it, controlling all realms with an infallible plan."
"With each reincarnation, it's as if nothing ever happened to you."
Hua Can spoke slowly, his words seemingly revealing a lingering, inexplicable disappointment in Xiao Yan.
The gray sword energy, carrying the power to destroy everything, annihilated all and enveloped Xiao Yan!
Before the sword energy even arrived, its sharp aura, which it exuded, whistled past and pierced through everything to land on Xiao Yan.
Dozens of lines of blood appeared, and blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly turning him into a blood-soaked figure. Pain swept through his entire body, as if his flesh was being cut by countless blunt knives at the same time.
Even the original god clone of the ancient realm couldn't withstand the sword energy from Hua Can, let alone the original body of the ancestral realm.
Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, completely baffled by Hua Can's intentions. Was he simply trying to lure his true self here through his primordial spirit clone, only to then eliminate him?
With Hua Can's immense strength, killing him would be incredibly easy. Is he scheming for the sake of scheming, or is he imitating the Venerable One's methods?
These thoughts flashed through Xiao Yan's mind. At this moment, his methods, which were able to contend with Hua Can, seemed utterly inadequate in front of him.
His physical body was on the verge of collapse, and when the gray sword energy fell, he would be annihilated by this sword.
Ye Beijing seemed to remain detached, standing to one side as if it were none of her business.
Xiao Yan didn't suspect Ye Beijing of trying to frame him; the reason she didn't intervene was because of Hua Can.
Xiao Yan coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, his life force rapidly dissipating, and the gray sword energy quickly magnified in his pupils.
However, at that very moment, the illusory figure of the ice maiden suddenly moved forward and crashed into the gray sword energy!
"Li'er...no!!"
Xiao Yan hurriedly tried to stop them, but the two quickly approached each other. Just as the sword energy was about to fall, it hovered a few feet away from the Ice Maiden's phantom.
"I thought you really dared to kill him," Ye Beijing said softly from the side.
Hua Can still didn't look at Ye Beijing, nor did he pay any attention to her.
"You're pretending..." Ye Beijing took a sudden step forward and appeared in front of Hua Can, reaching out to slap him.
Hua Can was startled, not expecting Ye Beijing to be so fierce, and hurriedly pulled away to dodge.
"What are you trying to do? Don't think we won't kill you!" Hua Can steadied himself and was quite annoyed, feeling as if his image had been humiliated.
"Kill me? You've never defeated the Venerable One, much less me. What makes you think you can kill me?"
"With your mediocre sword aura?"
