With absolute overwhelming power and even a bit of surprise attack, Zircon Jade thought that the result would not have any surprise at all.
And what was the result?
Qi Chuan actually repelled Great True Monarch Yin Bone’s Bone Shuttle with a single move?
What is going on?
"Damn it, could it be that old trickster Yin Bone is going easy on him secretly, scheming something in the shadows?"
Suddenly thinking of something, Great True Monarch of Zircon Jade felt a chill in his heart, and cold sweat drenched his back.
But on second thought, he couldn’t figure it out.
Yin Bone, this guy, shouldn’t he instead unite with Great True Monarch Qing Gang against me? He couldn’t think of any reason Yin Bone would do this.
"Hmm?"
"This kid’s Nascent Soul foundation... is strange?!!!"
On the other side, Great True Monarch Yin Bone, who originally had an indifferent expression and thought victory was within grasp, was now staring intently at Qi Chuan, his gaze filled with both shock and uncertainty.
Qi Chuan’s previous move, able to repel his Bone Shuttle, that pitch-black giant seal was, indeed, extraordinary.
This Water Attribute Divine Technique seems to have been cultivated by Qi Chuan to a profound level, capable of wreaking havoc in the Realm of the Great True Monarch.
However, Great True Monarch Yin Bone did not focus much on this Divine Technique.
Because no matter how strong a Divine Technique is, its higher potential is still limited by the cultivator’s own Mana.
If the Mana is weak, even if the Divine Technique is powerful, it would be difficult to reach a high upper limit.
Therefore, relying solely on this Water Attribute Divine Technique, it would be hard to repel his Bone Shuttle.
The key here was Qi Chuan’s Nascent Soul foundation.
When Qi Chuan made his move, he vaguely sensed that Qi Chuan’s Nascent Soul foundation was extremely robust, even seemingly superior to his own.
But this... how is it possible?
One must know, Qi Chuan is a newly promoted Great True Monarch!
Even if he is an outstanding talent, it should be impossible for him to possess such a strong Nascent Soul foundation.
"This kid has something odd about him!"
He stared fixedly at Qi Chuan.
Perhaps Qi Chuan used some sort of trump card in secret, which led to such an incredible scene appearing.
But no matter what, in Yin Bone’s mind, Qi Chuan’s label had already changed from a "weakling to be easily manipulated" to "a character to be wary of."
Even a veteran Great True Monarch powerhouse must be cautious of him; this carries considerable weight.
"Qi Chuan, I don’t know exactly how you accomplished this scene before us."
"However, from this moment on, I have regarded you as an existence of the same rank as myself."
Gazing at Qi Chuan, Yin Bone took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
In his eyes, there was no longer any light of contempt.
It can be imagined that from this point on, this Great True Monarch Yin Bone would surely go all out, using any means necessary to defeat Qi Chuan.
Seeing this, Great True Monarch Qing Gang’s expression also subtly changed.
"Fellow Daoist Qi Chuan, do you need my assistance?"
He asked Qi Chuan.
He meant to ask if Qi Chuan wanted to swap opponents, for him to face Great True Monarch Yin Bone, while Qi Chuan would deal with Great True Monarch Zircon Jade.
In his view, though Qi Chuan had just displayed astounding power,
perhaps it was a non-replicable or time-limited method.
After all, for a newly promoted Great True Monarch to defeat an experienced powerhouse like Yin Bone, it was somewhat hard to believe.
However, Qi Chuan’s strength, in his eyes, had indeed surged significantly.
If they were to swap opponents and let Qi Chuan face Great True Monarch Zircon Jade, there would already be a high chance for him to contend with the latter.
And he himself would strive to battle Yin Bone, even if the latter’s strength surpassed his by a bit, easily defeating him would not be so simple.
In this case, the apparent strength on both sides nearly balanced out, and such a situation seemed good.
"No need."
"Fellow Daoist Qing Gang should continue to deal with Great True Monarch Zircon Jade, leave Yin Bone to me."
However, in response to Great True Monarch Qing Gang’s offer, Qi Chuan shook his head.
Seeing Qi Chuan say this, Great True Monarch Qing Gang opened his mouth, but did not say anything more.
After all, since Qi Chuan had already shown such power earlier, perhaps there truly was a slight chance he could defeat Great True Monarch Yin Bone?
And just as Qi Chuan and Great True Monarch Qing Gang were conversing, Great True Monarch Yin Bone didn’t leave the two any time, and directly made a move.
He opened his mouth, and a streak of flowing light flew out from within.
This streak of flowing light emitted the waves of a Tier Four Upper Grade Spirit Treasure, its quality and power even surpassing the previous Bone Shuttle.
Once it emerged, it wavered slightly and turned into a mass of bone-cold flame, with that penetrating chill spreading, freezing even the surrounding void.
The present individuals all witnessed it clearly.
Inside this bone-cold flame was a white pearl, the size of a fist, from which the cold flames emanated.
As Great True Monarch Yin Bone muttered spells and made a hand seal, this white pearl quietly melted, merging into the bone-white cold flames.
Whistling...
In an instant, after absorbing the white pearl, the bone-white cold flames transformed into a gas that was both like flame and mist and surged violently, turning into a fog that, under an eerie wind blown by Great True Monarch Yin Bone, swept toward Qi Chuan’s position, enveloping both him and Great True Monarch Qing Gang.
For a moment, both Qi Chuan and Great True Monarch Qing Gang felt the surrounding space rapidly drop in temperature, becoming as cold as a prison. Yet, deep inside their hearts, a strange sense of heat began to rise, and their Qi and Blood seemed to become agitated.
Witnessing this, Qi Chuan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He merely turned his thoughts.
Immediately, the intangible heat within his body disappeared in an instant.
Sweeping his gaze again over the surrounding flame-like misty white world.
In such a scenario, it was hard to ensure that Yin Bone wouldn’t suddenly attack Great True Monarch Qing Gang, just as he had done to him earlier.
With this, he turned his thoughts swiftly, looked at Great True Monarch Qing Gang, who was not far away, and flicked a finger.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Great True Monarch Qing Gang’s expression was taken by surprise.
Because he discovered that the heat sensation in his body had vanished in an instant.
He looked towards Qi Chuan, realizing that this was Qi Chuan assisting him.
"Fellow Daoist Qing Gang, perhaps it’s time to focus?"
At this moment, the figure of Great True Monarch Zircon Jade suddenly appeared ahead.
This person did not avoid but instead entered the Cold Flame White Mist World, because of his alliance with Great True Monarch Yin Bone, the cold flame naturally didn’t affect him.
"Hmph, Zircon Jade, I happen to want to see how much your strength has increased recently!"
Great True Monarch Qing Gang sneered, then unleashed Divine Spirit Treasure attacks toward Great True Monarch of Zircon Jade.
Facing an opponent of the same level, even he must go all out.
So, Qi Chuan had to rely on himself mostly.
He felt some worry in his heart.
On another side, Qi Chuan raised his head, looking into the front void.
Though there was the obscuration of the Cold Flame White Mist, it actually only blocked vision; it did not obscure the sensing of Divine Sense, so Qi Chuan could still know what Yin Bone was doing there.
He saw at this moment that Yin Bone, after unleashing the Cold Flame White Mist, did not stop but continued to employ other equally powerful methods.
"Heart-Eating Five Ghosts, arise..."
