The drill pierced through the stone fist and finally, under the pressure of those rocks, it collapsed, but Ken's fist still moved forward.

He shifted the aim, and his arm went straight toward his chest. Fist, coated with ice armor and dragon scale, collided with his chest.

Bang!

The body of Arlong flung back like a broken kite, striking several ice peaks before coming to a stop and crashing on the icy ground.

Splash!

The blood spluttered out from his mouth and his hand. The broken stone revealed red blood flowing on the ice.

But in just a few more seconds, new stones appeared on top of his right hand and started covering the wounded fist with new stones.

'What was that? Wasn't it supposed to be an armor? How did he turn it into a drill?'

A look of shock appeared on Arlong's face.

Despite his overwhelming strength and pride in his strength, he didn't think one could so easily change a martial art in the middle of a battle.

Monsters couldn't use martial arts, but being born from the Dragon Blood of the Fire Dragon, he had inherited their knowledge of martial arts and techniques.

Monsters didn't need these things. They could simply absorb spiritual energy from the surroundings and use their blood to refine Qi.

With their blood merged with Qi, they could enhance their bloodline power, improve their physical attributes, and gain powerful bloodline abilities.

Because of this, they usually wouldn't train in martial arts.

But thanks to his knowledge, Arlong knew it wasn't possible to change Martial Arts in the middle.

Unless it was made that way.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that inside Ken was the knowledge of two hundred years two-hundred-year-old cultivator.

This cultivation hadn't reached its peak of cultivation. He wasn't some kind of Martial God or Emperor in his previous life.

But with his extensive knowledge and experience, his control over Qi was exceptionally good.

Although the current Julia had surpassed him in that regard thanks to her enhanced talent, it didn't mean his control had digressed.

With his insane control, he was able to use the Golden Elephant Energy to create the cone.

Whether it was Dragon Scale, Ice Armor, or Golden Elephant Body, they were all made from a certain form of energy.

Dragon Energy was produced by his innate ability, Ice Armor was produced by his Ice Qi, and Golden Elephant Body was produced by Golden Elephant Energy.

Golden Elephant Energy wasn't like Elephant Strength or Iron Body.

Instead, it was energy refined by the cultivation technique to use Elephant Strength and Iron Body.

Of course, it was made from his Qi, but it didn't change the fact that it was simply energy taking shape.

By manipulating the energy, he could also manipulate the shape. And that's how he was able to create that drill.

'That worked, but it definitely won't be enough. I need to come up with something else to defeat him.'

'Oh no! He is coming.'

Just when Ken was thinking about his next move, Arlong instantly approached him and punched forward with all of his strength.

He didn't even try to hold back this time.

His fist carried so much force that Ken knew he would be severely injured if that attack landed on him.

He ducked, but the fist instantly changed its direction and rained down like a wailing lightning bolt from heaven.

Ken gritted his teeth and channeled a massive wave of ice above his head, forming a huge barrier.

Bang!

The fist landed on top of the ice barrier. The cracks quickly appeared on the barrier. In less than a second, the hole appeared on the ice barrier as the fist passed down.

Crack! Bang!

The fist struck Ken on the head with so much force that it shattered the ground and Ken's body.

It literally shattered like ice.

At this moment, Arlong realized.

It was ice.

[Ice Clone Substitution Art]

Ken dodged his first attack using this same art. How could he forget it so easily?

He didn't expect Ken could use it with ice covering the ground.

Unfortunately, Ice only helped him more.

Suddenly, he turned his head and sensed Ken appear hundreds of meters away.

But he couldn't help but feel confused about it.

Ken's Qi was too scattered, especially on top of the ice. At this moment, he noticed several of the ice gathering in different places.

They slowly formed a replica of Ken's body, creating something similar to a clone.

[Ice Clone Art]

Ken's fingers were covered with a thin thread of ice. He moved his fingers, and those clones started moving as well.

'I've never tried this before. Let's see what they can do!'

He moved one of his fingers, and suddenly, the ice clone dashed forward. But it dashed in a different direction than Arlong.

Fortunately, it managed to distract Arlong, which was why Ken's face didn't turn red.

To deny his failure, he quickly controlled another clone that could move towards Arlong and sent it.

As the clone slid on top of the ice, it quickly reached in front of Arlong.

[Ice Thorn]

The clone extended its arm, and several sharp spikes emerged from its arm as it swung its arm towards Arlong.

Bang!

Because of the distraction, Arlong didn't manage to dodge or block it. His body was struck by those spikes, piercing the stone skin.

As blood spilled on top of the ice, Arlong's anger boiled.

He had never been hurt before. Pain was a completely unknown element to him.

He knew as a cultivator, he would need to learn to bear pain. But this time, it touched his limits.

"Die!"

He roared, and powerful spikes suddenly emerged from his body. Those rocky spikes pierced the ice clone and destroyed it instantly.

"I have had enough of these trickeries. Die! Die right now!"

Arlong roared, and his Qi burst out. Suddenly, the ground started shaking and the ice cracked open.

The lava underneath the ice exploded and started covering the layer of ice, turning the ice into water.

The ground shook, creating several large-scale spikes all around him.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

In less than five seconds, every single clone was destroyed by the spikes coming from the ground.

Even the melted water started to evaporate.

'No! He is increasing the temperature of the air and manipulating the ground. This is not just the utilization of Fire and Earth Element.'

'He is doing something more.'

A look of horror appeared on Ken's face. At this moment, the realization struck him.

He knew this guy was holding back the entire time. He knew the trump card of the Rank Fourth Monster.

But he had never imagined this would be the true power of the Rank Four Monster.

Below Foundation Establishment Realm, monsters had one less advantage than normal cultivators.

Of course, they would still be stronger than normal cultivators but their inability to use martial art in a battle was a weakness a cultivator could exploit.

But when a monster reaches Fourth Rank, everything changes.

The Fourth Rank Monster would awaken something known as a 'Supernatural Abilities'.

At Spiritual Palace Realm, cultivators would awaken the ability to put spirituality into items.

In this realm, a cultivator could easily awaken a spirit within their weapons, allowing them to live within their Spiritual Palace.

The Spiritual Palace existed within a cultivator's body. So, any kind of weapon could be stored within a human body, without causing any harm.

But for monsters, their previously existing bloodline abilities evolve into supernatural abilities.

They were called supernatural because of their ability to affect the nature itself.

A Wind-type Supernatural Ability could easily cause the destruction of a kingdom like Lightning Sword Kingdom.

A Water-type Supernatural Ability could easily create a massive lake and even river.

A Fire-type Supernatural Ability could easily burn the entire river.

Human's martial arts were created by copying many of these powers.

His Ice Manipulation Art was created from such supernatural ability. That's why when he used this ability to its limit, he was able to freeze this place.

But against a real Supernatural Ability, it wasn't that much useful. That's why his ice was destroyed so easily.

'Damn! His bloodline ability include Earth and Fire Element. If he unleashes more of this power, he can easily increase the heat of the surroundings.'

Ken gritted his teeth as he thought about it. But suddenly, his expression froze.

He realized that Arlong was increasing the heat but it wasn't affecting him. He had already increased it to the point that all of the ice had already melted.

But even so, Ken didn't feel any temperature affecting.

His eyes widened with surprise. He sighed with a breath of relief.

'That's good! My ability to reject the temperature with Ancient Dragon Qi saved me.'

'After all, no matter how ridiculously powerful his abilities are, they are nothing compared to a Saint.'

'But even so, he still has Earth Element.'

At this moment, Arlong showed a creepy grin as Ken gulped heavily.

'And, he has realized that as well.'
