He suddenly clenched his fist, and his dark-gold Soul Power erupted, shattering the ice crystals, but that chill still remained.
"What formidable Ultimate Ice."
Gold Crocodile Douluo felt a secret chill in his heart.
"If not for my Martial Soul's extremely high quality and my profound Soul Power, I would have suffered a loss from that one hit."
"Old Crocodile, you have quite some strength."
The Ice Empress gave a cold snort, but the Battle Intent in her heart was thoroughly ignited.
Her figure flickered again. No longer limited to close-quarters combat, countless ice-green beams of light capable of freezing Soul Power shot toward Gold Crocodile Douluo like a rainstorm.
Gold Crocodile Douluo's eyes turned sharp. Third Martial Soul Skill: Gold Crocodile Tail Flick.
The massive phantom of the crocodile tail behind him suddenly expanded and solidified like a golden mountain range. Carrying the momentum of a force sweeping through thousands, it lashed out fiercely toward the sky full of ice-green beams.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang...!"
Dense explosive sounds rang out as the ice-blue beams and the golden giant tail constantly collided and annihilated each other, bursting into clusters of brilliant yet dangerous energy fireworks that lit up the sky in bizarre colors.
Ice Empress's Wrath.
The Ice Empress brought her hands together, and an emerald light ball only the size of a fist—yet compressed with terrifying Ultimate Ice energy—instantly took shape. Carrying an Aura that could destroy everything, it shot silently toward Gold Crocodile Douluo's chest.
Everywhere it passed, the space was left with a black frozen scar that could not heal for a long time.
Gold Crocodile Douluo felt a fatal threat. Eighth Martial Soul Skill: Golden Barrier.
He crossed his claws in front of his chest, and his entire body radiated dark-gold light, forming a massive golden shield carved with a ferocious crocodile head. The shield's surface shimmered with flowing light, as if it had condensed the eternal power of the earth.
"Dong—!!!"
The emerald light ball struck the Golden Barrier, letting out an extremely dull, heavy boom.
There was no explosion, only ultimate freezing.
Centering on the point of impact, the heavy Golden Barrier was actually dyed emerald at a speed visible to the naked eye. It quickly spread in all directions, looking as if it were about to freeze the entire shield along with Gold Crocodile Douluo behind it.
"Roar!"
Gold Crocodile Douluo roared. Sixth Martial Soul Skill: Violent Gold Crocodile.
His entire body's blood and Qi boiled, and his strength, speed, and defense instantly surged by another fifty percent.
The muscles on his arms knotted. He forcibly held up the Golden Barrier that was about to be completely frozen and, along with the emerald ice crystals on it, slammed it forward toward the Ice Empress.
The Ice Empress's figure was agile, and she avoided this throw containing terrifying power by a hair's breadth.
The thrown Golden Barrier smashed into the ice field below like a meteorite, triggering another violent earthquake.
High in the sky, the two transformed into a golden and an emerald streak of light. They fought fast against fast and met strength with strength.
The Ice Empress's Ultimate Ice was omnipresent, freezing space and eroding Soul Power.
Gold Crocodile Douluo, relying on the top-tier quality of his Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul and his profound rank ninety-eight cultivation, possessed overbearing strength and amazing defense. His Moves were bold and grand, every strike containing the mighty power to crumble mountains and split the earth.
The Ice Empress's Ice Empress Body Protection made her almost invincible in close-quarters combat. Once Gold Crocodile Douluo's Seventh Martial Soul Skill, Golden Crocodile True Body, was unleashed, he transformed into a hundred-meter golden giant crocodile. His power doubled; with tail lashes and claw tears, he could even briefly resist the suppression of the Eternal Frozen Domain.
For a time, emerald and golden light intertwined and collided. Booming sounds were incessant as terrifying Soul Power fluctuations and laws clashed, turning this ice field completely into a forbidden zone for life.
The aftershocks of their battle were second only to the fight between the Snow Empress and Qian Daoliu on the main battlefield.
The Ice Empress was anxious, wanting to quickly break away from her opponent to regroup with the Snow Empress. But Gold Crocodile Douluo was like the toughest piece of sticky candy, entangling her so tightly that she could not escape.
Gold Crocodile Douluo was equally shocked. He hadn't expected the Ice Empress, one of the Three Great Heavenly Kings of the Far North, to be so difficult to deal with. The attribute suppression of that Ultimate Ice forced him to consume even more Soul Power to resist.
The battle fell into a fierce stalemate.
Emerald and golden lights flashed crazily under the sky of the Far North like two stars constantly colliding. Neither could overcome the other, but with every collision, this ancient ice field let out a groan of pain.
