NOVPUBAt the same time, a cold wind suddenly rose from the flat ground on both sides, blowing towards the blizzard.
"Ride the Wind Six Methods?"
As an incarnation of Wang Ba, the Ice Daoist was not unfamiliar with this technique, recognizing at a glance that it was the ’Cold Wind’ method from Ride the Wind Six Methods.
However, he soon shook his head slightly.
Cold Wind was one of the six methods in Ride the Wind.
In it was contained a portion of the Ice Dao’s cold essence.
But how could the auxiliary coldness of the wind compare to the utmost cold?
The Cold Wind clashed with the blizzard in an instant, only to stir up some snowflakes before immediately merging into the blizzard itself.
Far from lessening the blizzard’s force, it became even more formidable.
The swiftly accumulating cold current struck at Wang Ba, the noise growing even more immense.
Not far off, beside the pillar of heaven.
The female cultivator watched the confrontation quietly.
Seeing the Ice Daoist skillfully using the geographical advantage to rapidly amplify his control over the icy stream, a trace of imperceptible surprise appeared in her eyes.
"He mastered it too quickly… It’s not at all like he has just started cultivating it."
"Did he never practice the Method of the Ice Dao before?"
In a daze, the silhouette of the Ice Daoist seemed to overlap with that person from the past.
It was as if that person stood before her again, proudly laughing after just mastering the technique.
Showing off his insignificant Ice Dao skills, she casually pointed him out, leaving him utterly embarrassed...
"What about the Dao of Dharmas? Can it compare to one law that overshadows myriad laws?"
"You have a flaw here… Forget it, I think the Ice Method is too sinister for your own good. How about I teach you the ’Cloud-Water True Vacuum Technique’ instead? I could then recommend you to join our Sect..."
"Do not mention this again! As a Sect Master’s direct disciple, how could I easily switch allegiances."
"… I have to return to the Sect."
"Oh."
"My master’s life is nearing its end… Once I reach Nascent Soul, I will come to find you."
"Nascent Soul… Yao Piao, our aspiration should be to seek the Dao for long-lasting life. What’s the point of meeting again if we do not reach Immortal Ascension?"
"… Cough, can you not call me by that name? I still prefer people calling me Yao Wudi."
"Don’t be all smiles and no seriousness, I’m being serious."
"I’m serious too. Come back with me to the Sect, and I’ll have my uncle-masterteach you the ’Cloud-Water True Vacuum Technique.’ It’s no worse than your inheritance and doesn’t have as many issues."
"I am resolved in my decision, Yao Piao. If we do not reach Immortal Ascension, let us not meet again."
"Immortal Ascension…"
"Immortal Ascension…"
The female cultivator’s absent-minded gaze gradually cleared up.
A rare gentleness in her eyes quietly receded.
She returned to her original indifference.
But she soon discovered that Wang Ba’s confrontation with the Ice Daoist was also nearing its end.
Just like many years ago, under the Ice Daoist’s advantage of terrain, Wang Ba, despite fighting back continuously, quickly fell into a disadvantage.
His reactions became slower and slower.
The operation of his mana was visibly slowing down.
Meanwhile, the numerous streams of cold air that had accumulated were circling and winding around him, awaiting the final strike.
The female cultivator’s gaze held little surprise.
The extremity of the Ice Dao was not just talk.
A heart that severs emotions and desires, aligning the cultivator’s mind perfectly with the Ice Dao, thereby unleashing freezing powers far beyond the ordinary. Against opponents of the same realm or slightly higher, it was nearly invincible.
The Dao of Myriad Laws, even encompassing all phenomena, ultimately could not reach such an extreme…
As this thought crossed her mind.
Suddenly, Wang Ba smiled brightly.
"I have found your flaw!"
As he spoke, he surprisingly raised his hand, and from his sleeves surged forth countless waves, roaring and torrenting!
"Water?"
A hint of bewilderment arose in the female cultivator’s eyes.
She had considered that Wang Ba might use fire, wind, or various other methods to counter, but she had not expected him to use water.
The Ice Daoist was also a bit astonished.
Although he was connected by lineage to Wang Ba, he was not the original.
Even though he didn’t understand Wang Ba’s intentions, he did not give Wang Ba the opportunity, his mind moved at once.
The surrounding frigid air swiftly pounced on Wang Ba.
Under the intense cold, the water that surged from Wang Ba’s sleeves was almost instantly frozen the moment it appeared!
However, what baffled him was that not only did Wang Ba’s movements not stop, but the surging waves also grew more abundant.
Dodging with great effort while pouring out countless streams of water.
Which only turned to ice in the blink of an eye.
But soon, the always attentive female cultivator noticed something abnormal.
The amount of water around Wang Ba that had not frozen was gradually increasing.
"How is this possible?"
The Ice Daoist was equally astonished.
But Wang Ba started to laugh:
"Have you not seen that the ice over the North Sea is several yards thick, yet it never completely freezes?"
"There’s nothing else to it. Ice has its limits, while water is boundless."
"Your Ice Method may be strong, but it has its limits. You can freeze this area, but how can you freeze an entire ocean?"
"All I need is to compete with you on the robustness of mana!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth.
Wang Ba, his mana gradually recovering, did not hesitate for an instant, and the water that had not been frozen around him suddenly burst open, then numerous waves condensed into a mass.
Even though the exterior was rapidly frozen over, it still formed a shrinking ring of ice in mid-air, ultimately slamming onto the screen of wind and snow created by the Ice Daoist.
And in just the next breath.
A blaze of fire suddenly rose on top of it!
Then a gust of wind blew across the flames, and in an instant, the fire fed by the wind furiously expanded, quickly engulfing the entire blizzard.
The Ice Daoist hastily tried to extinguish it by driving the cold current, but soon found that the flames gave him no chance to react.
