Chapter 443: Sword Return to the Origin - Extreme Ice Sword

...

An invisible force spread rapidly in all directions from Zeng Yi as the center.

At this moment, the whistling cold wind disappeared, and the fine snow falling from the sky vanished without a trace.

Zeng Yi could feel the state of his body at this moment, a sensation that was indescribably refreshing.

His body seemed to be filled with boundless power, and his spirit seemed to be linked to the surrounding space, making him feel as if he had merged with nature!

Everything around him seemed to be under his control. All the creatures in the space, he could clearly sense their states, their breath, their heartbeat.

He could even feel the fear emanating from the opponents, those Evil Spirit Masters!

In this state, Zeng Yi felt that his mental state was incredibly pleasant. His whole body was filled with power, with an endless feeling. Even the spiritual energy of the surrounding world was under his control.

With every movement, he had the power to change everything!

So, this is a domain?

Zeng Yi couldn't help but marvel at the power of a domain skill. As long as one is in this state, the person who controls the domain can maximize their own strength and even control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

On the other hand, the opponents, being in the controlled domain, would find it difficult to fully exert their own strength.

This is the power of a domain!

Zeng Yi had a feeling that he would dare to fight against a Titled Douluo at this moment!

Whether he could win or not, he didn't know.

Since entering this state of domain, the Evil Spirit Masters in front of Zeng Yi were all filled with panic.

Ever since a while ago, they felt that something seemed to have changed around them, an inexplicable feeling.

Although they were still standing in the same place, the environment and the scene seemed to have entered another world.

This feeling was as if their bodies were being pulled by threads, like puppets. In an instant, they felt that even their life and death were under someone else's control!

They, who were only Spirit Kings and Spirit Emperors, didn't understand what the spirit master in front of them had done because they couldn't reach that level! But the remaining three Spirit Saints knew very well that what had just happened was an incredibly powerful, terrifying move!

That move was a domain!

Normally, one would not obtain a domain through spirit rings. To attain a domain skill, a spirit master had to have a perfect understanding of their own Martial Spirit, not only having a profound spirit power cultivation but also a high spiritual state to touch this level!

Generally speaking, those who possessed a domain skill were mostly Titled Douluo-level spirit masters! To reach this level, one must be an outstanding spirit master and have exceeded the limits of understanding their Martial Spirit.

Otherwise, they would not be able to become Titled Douluo, the peak figures standing at the top of the spirit master world!

Therefore, a domain was basically a symbol of a Titled Douluo-level powerhouse.

Of course, there were other methods to obtain powerful domain skills!

One was the talent of a Martial Spirit. Some exceptionally powerful Martial Spirits naturally possessed domain skills! For example, the Martial Spirit of Sword Douluo Chen Xin, the Seven Kill Sword, the strongest Sword Martial Spirit on the continent! It possessed the Seven Kill Domain!

There was also the inherited Martial Spirit of the Qian Clan of the Martial Spirit Hall, Seraphim! It had the Angel Domain!

These Martial Spirits were all among the best of the best.

Of course, there was another kind of domain, the bestowed domain! Usually, it was obtained by passing the tests set by the gods and gaining the power of the domain!

However, the Evil Spirit Masters were unaware of the other methods. They only knew that a domain was a symbol of a Titled Douluo!

The three Spirit Saints stared at the person standing opposite them in shock. He was just standing there quietly, without any movement, seemingly merged into this icy world, like he didn't exist.

A domain!

This person is actually a Titled Douluo!

Why would they encounter a Titled Douluo-level powerhouse in this kind of place!

They couldn't understand. Titled Douluos on the continent were few and far between. They could be counted on the fingers of both hands! Even if they added the Titled Douluos who didn't appear in the world, there were only about twenty of them!

These Titled Douluos were mostly observed and recorded by their organization.

But now, this newly promoted Titled Douluo suddenly appeared. Looking at his appearance, he seemed to be around twenty years old! When did a new Titled Douluo appear on the continent again?

This was beyond their predictions!

Fear began to rise in their hearts.

Ever since they entered this domain and stood in this space, they already knew that they were likely to die in this icy world.

Because the appearance of a domain represented absolute power!

In this space, they didn't even have a chance to escape!

The only way to break the opponent's domain was to possess a power surpassing theirs. Only with immense strength could they break free from the control of the domain!

However, those who could do that were also people with the same level of power, Titled Douluos with domains, just like the opponent.

They were only small Spirit Saints. Even if they exerted their strength to the limit, they would only have the battle power of Spirit Douluos, which was still far from enough!

"How is it possible? How can you be a Titled Douluo!" That Spirit Saint, who had been calm before and presented himself with an air of nobility, started to show his distorted, pale face turning ferocious, with fear flashing in his bloodshot eyes.

Just a moment ago, he looked down on the opponent like an ant he could crush as he pleased. But this state of mind lasted only a couple of minutes, and the situation suddenly reversed.

It turned out that it was his side that was the insignificant ant that the opponent could easily crush!

This sudden change felt like going from heaven to hell in an instant, and he found it difficult to accept.

This Spirit Saint couldn't accept this reality. He stood on top of the giant skeleton monster, glaring angrily with a terrifying expression and yelled out, but fear flickered in his eyes.

Titled Douluo!

The desperate shout of the Evil Spirit Saint was heard by Zhang Ruonan and her group hiding in the distance. They couldn't help but take a deep breath, wide-eyed, looking at the aloof figure standing in the snow.

They were actually saved by the legendary Titled Douluo; what kind of luck was this!

When they thought that their hope of survival was about to diminish as all the Evil Spirit Masters arrived, their eyes started to dim.

But now, their dim eyes were filled with excitement once again!

"Titled Douluo?" Zeng Yi was puzzled for a moment, not quite understanding what the opposite side meant.

However, this also indicated that the mentality of these Evil Spirit Masters had collapsed.

"If you say so, then it must be true." Zeng Yi said indifferently in response to that voice, the tone of his voice very calm.

His own combat power had reached its peak, and the strength of these people was simply not enough for him.

Not to mention three Spirit Saints, even if ten more came, Zeng Yi would still face them fearlessly!

At that moment, he made a move.

Zeng Yi grasped the hilt of [Ronin Sword] and slowly drew the sword.

In that instant, it seemed like some kind of power resonated and emanated out as if a drop of water fell onto a calm lake, causing ripples to spread.

As Zeng Yi drew the sword, the accumulated white snow and shattered ice on the ground seemed to be lifted by a mysterious force.

The snow and shattered ice floated upwards and condensed into the shape of swords!

In an instant, countless ice swords gathered in the sky, floating and suspended in mid-air.

Numerous ice swords filled the space densely, just the sight of them was enough to make one's scalp tingle!

"What do we do, Elder?" These Evil Spirit Masters looked up at the countless ice swords in the sky, in which their terrified expressions were reflected. Those icy swords exuded a terrifying chilling aura that seemed capable of freezing even their spirits!

They couldn't help but retreat, fear evident in their eyes as they looked at their leader, pleading for help.

The horrifying intent of the swords filled the space, combined with the terrifying icy aura, the sword intent and the extreme cold merged perfectly. This made even the evil spirits shudder involuntarily.

If he hadn't seen the portrait of the Sword Douluo who was titled as the number one swordsman on the continent, he would have thought that the Spirit Master before his eyes was none other than Sword Douluo Chen Xin!

Of course, his speculation was somewhat accurate, as Sword Douluo was Zeng Yi's master!

"How is this possible?!" The previously calm Spirit Saint, who presented himself with an air of nobility, started to grimace, his pale face turning ferocious, blood-red eyes flashing with fear.

He had looked down on the opponent just a moment ago, treating him like an ant he could easily crush. But this state of mind didn't last long, only a couple of minutes, and the situation suddenly reversed.

It became himself, who could be easily crushed like an ant by the opponent!

This disparity felt like going from heaven to hell in an instant, which made it hard for him to accept.

This Spirit Saint couldn't accept this reality. Standing on top of the giant skeleton monster, he glared at his subordinates with a terrifying expression, controlling the massive beast with spikes protruding from its back. In a moment, these bone spikes accurately pierced the bodies of those Spirit Kings and Spirit Emperors, sucking away their spirit power and life force.

"How is this possible? Ah--"

When they realized what was happening, they already felt their spirit power and life force rapidly being sucked and drained from their bodies.

In just a few seconds, their bodies shriveled up, eventually turning into dust and dissipating into the snowy world.

They didn't expect to be killed by their own people in the end.

"Still not enough! These powers are far from enough!" The Spirit Saint, now mad, shouted, not wanting to die like this and determined to make a final struggle.

However, the spirit energy and blood energy of a few Spirit Kings and Spirit Emperors were far from enough to resist the ultimate technique of a Titled Douluo!

Without hesitation, he turned his gaze toward the remaining two Spirit Saints. Blood-red eyes flashed with madness and ferocity.

"Qing Gui, Mo Hu, it's time to offer your lives to the Holy Ghost Church!"

"Well, it doesn't matter. If I can fight against a Titled Douluo, even sacrificing this life would be worthwhile!" Qing Gui sneered coldly.

As Spirit Saints of the organization, the two of them understood that they only had one path left, which was death. Since they were going to die anyway, they might as well make the most of their last moments and fight against this Titled Douluo.

"Hehe, go ahead!" Mo Hu also chuckled wickedly.

As Spirit Saints of the organization, the two of them had strong resolve.

Without saying another word, the Spirit Saint controlled his body to stab the two Spirit Saints with bone spikes, starting to absorb their spirit power and blood energy.

In the end, the two evil Spirit Saints also turned into dust and dissipated.

The massive skeletal monster beneath the Spirit Saint's feet became engulfed in a surge of evil energy, and its enormous body surged with terrible aura and power.

"Ahahaha!"

Feeling the tremendous power, the Spirit Saint also laughed manically and eventually merged into the core of the monster.

The monstrous skeletal frame, resembling a bull demon, started to change.

It roared to the sky, a terrifying aura surged, causing the surrounding space to visibly distort.

The monstrous creature, enveloped in evil energy, began to grow larger and larger. Its body, originally only ten meters tall, grew to a colossal forty meters.

Its right arm turned into a massive skeletal ghost hand, adorned with countless ghost faces on the bone, almost identical to the Ghost Hand Martial Spirit of Qing Gui!

Sinister black magic patterns appeared on the originally pale bones, and on top of the skull, the curved giant horn became even larger, with a pair of ferocious fangs growing from the upper jaw.

The terrifying monster exuded immense power, causing the surrounding space to visibly tremble and distort.

In its mouth, without flesh or blood, it let out a roar like that of a demonic god. It held a huge axe in its hands and charged towards Zeng Yi's position!

On the other side, Zeng Yi raised his right hand with [Ronin Sword], and countless ice swords floated in the air. In that moment, they gathered above Zeng Yi.

This beautiful, spectacular, and breathtaking scene was like...

The Return of a Thousand Swords!

Countless ice swords condensed and merged, eventually forming a gigantic ice sword measuring hundreds of meters!

This exquisitely beautiful sword of ice, clear like crystal, had a huge, sharp sword exuding a terrifying sword intent, an extremely cold aura, and a horrifying power. It seemed to shake and distort the surrounding space, as if it were about to shatter.

Zeng Yi looked at the terrifying monster oozing an aura of countless demons, but his expression remained unchanged. He simply moved his lips slightly and exhaled one word coldly.

"Sever!"

Zeng Yi held [Ronin Sword] and swung it forward!

At the same time, the gigantic Ice Spirit Sword in the air followed his movement and swung down.

The massive sword tore through the void, cutting off the air currents. Even though the sword had not yet fallen, a strong force field appeared beneath it.

The space in front was suppressed by the terrifying sword intent, and at that instant, the snow drifted away to both sides. A long trench appeared on the ground!

The ice swords had not yet completely fallen, and the ground had already been opened up by the terrifying sword intent.

In an instant, a violent snowstorm raged in this space, mixed with the terrifying sword intent, demonstrating an imposing aura capable of tearing everything apart.

"Roar!"

The demon roared angrily under the suppression of the sword intent, flames flickering in its crimson eye sockets. It looked up at the gigantic ice sword descending from the sky, the terrifying power and sword intent restricting its movements.

Visible terrifying force fields appeared all around it.

Boom~

The powerful force caused the ground beneath it to sink.

"How is this possible!" The demon's roar seemed to contain the unwillingness of Mou Yang.

The demon gripped the giant axe, its burning demon flames engulfing its entire body, as all its power concentrated into one swing.

The sharp axe burned with demon flames, carrying an earth-shattering power, slashing towards the incoming colossal ice sword like a divine punishment!

Bang-

When the giant axe collided with the ice giant sword, it sounded as if the heavens were collapsing.

It seemed as if the whole world became quiet!

However, that mere forty-meter-tall demon skeleton looked like a child beneath the hundred-meter giant ice sword that fell from the sky.

The giant axe, in the face of the sword sword, only lasted for a few seconds.

Cracks appeared on the terrifying frame, unable to withstand this power, as if it would shatter at any moment.

Finally, the demon's giant axe shattered, and the giant sword fell, cutting the skeletal demon into two.

Boom boom boom-

As the giant sword cleaved down, the intense impact and the storm it generated stirred up a flurry of snow dust.

The demon, now split in half, dissipated into nothing amidst the terrifying sword storm.
