【Target: Abyssal Profound Ice Snapping Turtle】

【Rank: Rank 80 (pseudo-divine rank)】

【Health: 1,300,000,000 / 1,300,000,000】

【Traits: Extreme Cold Body, Spatial Lockdown, Profound Ice Indestructible Armor...】

“1.3 billion health?”

Zhou Huai raised an eyebrow and sneered inwardly, “What a thick-skinned old monster! With a health bar this long, even if it stood still and let the top experts from the Great Xia Country's leading guilds hack at it for half a year, they might not even scratch its surface!”

Seeing the dark-gold small giant in front of it actually withstand its bite, a low growl rumbled from the snapping turtle's throat.

“Roar—!”

A muffled roar erupted from deep within its throat! Immediately after, inside that abyssal maw, a dark blue sphere of light collapsed inward.

The ultimate Law of Extreme Cold!

Zhou Huai's eyelids twitched; this chill was even forcibly freezing the surrounding Spatial Laws.

“Only a fool would fight you head-on!”

Zhou Huai didn't hesitate. While the snapping turtle was charging its breath, he pushed off its upper and lower jaws with both hands! Using the counterforce, his massive Sky-Propping Body retreated hundreds of meters in a flash.

“Bang—!”

Just a thousandth of a second after he dodged, a dark blue pillar of ice light over ten meters in diameter blasted out from the snapping turtle's mouth, grazing Zhou Huai's afterimage and crashing into the Void Realm behind him.

“Crack, crack—”

That section of the Void Realm was instantly frozen, covered in countless glass-like cracks!

“Ang—!”

Seeing its master forced back, the Demon Dragon Xiao Hei circling in mid-air let out a long cry toward the sky!

The proud Ancestral Dragon Bloodline within it would never allow it to back down before this turtle! Its massive black leathery wings flapped as Xiao Hei dived down, trailing Abyssal Demonic Flames across the sky. A breath of concentrated Abyssal Dragon Breath blasted straight toward the snapping turtle's ice-spike-covered head!

“Xiao Hei, watch out for its tail!” Zhou Huai shouted a warning.

However, he was a step too late.

The snapping turtle's crimson eyes rolled, fixing on Xiao Hei in mid-air.

“Bang—!!!”

From beneath the glacier, a massive tail over a hundred meters long and covered in hideous ice spikes burst through the ice without warning! It swung so fast that space itself wailed, striking Xiao Hei's dragon belly with a heavy thud!

“Awoo—”

Accompanied by the tooth-aching sound of cracking bones and shattering black dragon scales, Xiao Hei's massive body turned into a black streak of light, flying backward with a scream of pain.

Both were at the pseudo-divine rank, but Xiao Hei had, after all, just been forcibly elevated through class bonuses, whereas this snapping turtle was a Rank 80 ancient monster that had lived through countless eras!

The gap in their foundations was laid bare in this single clash!

Xiao Hei was about to slam violently into the hard spatial barrier at the edge of the ruins.

“What a troublesome big black bug.”

In mid-air, Chun, who had been watching the show, gave a cold snort. Her hands quickly formed seals, and she cried out, “Myriad Manifestations, Bind!”

Countless green vines as thick as giant pythons sprouted out of thin air, weaving and interlacing across Xiao Hei's path to form a massive web of life.

“Bang! Creak—”

Xiao Hei slammed heavily into the vine net! The vines were stretched to their limit by the force, letting out groans of overextension. But ultimately, relying on the insane flexibility of the Wood-attribute Law, they managed to forcibly halt Xiao Hei's momentum in mid-air.

“Roar...” Xiao Hei stabilized itself and let out a low growl, black dragon blood leaking from its mouth.

“Stop whining!” Chun patted Xiao Hei's horn irritably.

“That old turtle has lived longer than your ancestors. How long have you been well-fed? To think you'd go head-to-head with it... you're lucky your skin is thick enough that it didn't snap you in two!”

Just then, from the depths of the ruins, the Extreme Ice Empress's laughter drifted over through the swirling snow.

“Hehehehe...”

“Ants of the present world, do you see? This is the true foundation of the ancient era!”

The Empress's voice echoed in the wind and snow: “Even a mere pet at my feet can swat your companion dragon aside like a fly! With just you few pathetic wretches, who gave you the courage to step into this Empress's territory?”

The wind and snow howled as the Empress's mockery echoed through the ice-crystal space, turning into tangible sound waves that sought to completely crush Zhou Huai's psychological defenses.

Facing such wanton ridicule, Zhou Huai, suspended in mid-air, grinned.

“In that case, I'll slaughter your little turtle first and stew a pot of All-Healing Turtle Soup before coming to deal with you!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the dark golden light in Zhou Huai's eyes flared!

“Xiang Yu—”

“Domain, Battlefield!!!”

With Zhou Huai's roar, a will that transcended the iron Laws of the world erupted from his three-hundred-meter-tall Sky-Propping Body!

This will no longer belonged solely to the Hegemon-King of Western Chu's slaughterous aura; it perfectly fused the diverse, ultimate Laws of all the Clones within Zhou Huai's body! Under the enhancement of All-Aspects Unity, the Battlefield Domain that originally belonged to Xiang Yu underwent an unprecedented and complete qualitative transformation!

“Buzz—!”

Reality was forcibly distorted. Before this overbearing will, the absolute-zero ice and snow Law melted and collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In the blink of an eye, that frozen land was forcibly covered by a vast, boundless Battlefield filled with swirling yellow sand and a chilling aura!

“Woo—woo—woo—”

Desolate and powerful war horns sounded across the river of time, echoing over the yellow-sanded landscape!

The Extreme Ice Empress's cold laughter stopped abruptly as she sensed something unbelievable: “This... what power is this? You can actually forcibly /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ rewrite my Extreme Cold space?”

A second later, within the yellow sand, war drums thundered!

Originally, the Battlefield Domain should have summoned the battle souls of the ancient Chu Army, armed with long halberds and riding warhorses.

But now, because of All-Aspects Unity, the army descending upon this Domain had undergone a world-shaking mutation!

“Kill!!!”

Amidst the earth-shattering battle cries, countless phantoms of modern-day Professionals clad in various types of armor charged out from the wind and sand!

Berserkers holding heavy shields, Elemental Mages holding staves and chanting for a rain of fire, Sharpshooters pulling bowstrings to fire armor-piercing arrows... Even in the sky, accompanied by high-pitched cries, an aerial knight order riding giant griffins and even Four-winged Wyverns bore down!

This was no longer a military formation of the old era, but represented the strongest expeditionary force of the entire modern professional system!

An army of tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of Professionals, under the command of Zhou Huai's will, turned into an unstoppable iron torrent, charging fearlessly toward the mountain-sized snapping turtle!

“Bang bang bang bang!”

Magic fireballs, sharp battle-qi sword glows, and a sky-covering rain of lightning arrows poured frantically onto the snapping turtle's dark blue Profound Ice shell!

This kind of epic-grade war scene would be a one-sided slaughter if it were used against ordinary Rank 70 or 80 beast bosses in the outside Great Xia Country!

“Rumble—”

However, when the dust from the explosions settled...

That pseudo-divine rank snapping turtle with 1.3 billion health merely shook its head impatiently.
