The Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable could only transform into six beasts.

However, these Phantom Beasts were incredibly powerful, their strength comparable to that of Spirit Beasts.

As soon as the Phantom Beast appeared, everyone below the stage gasped in astonishment.

"Roar!" The Phantom Beast let out a deafening roar and then, baring its fangs and claws, it charged toward Leng Qingqiu.

Leng Qingqiu's hand grasped the Sword Technique firmly like a mountain, the Ruthless Sword emitted a sword light ten feet high, shielding her in front.

Boom!

The Phantom Beast collided with the Ruthless Sword, knocking both the sword and Leng Qingqiu flying.

Fortunately, the arena was rather large, otherwise that hit would have sent Leng Qingqiu tumbling off the stage, resulting in her loss of the match.

Thud!

Leng Qingqiu landed heavily on the ground, a trace of fresh blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, the red streak on her somewhat pale face looking somewhat tragic.

The Ruthless Sword was stuck upside down in the arena, trembling ceaselessly, emitting a whining sound, its light dim.

The Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable's male Cultivator retracted his Phantom Beast and sneered at Leng Qingqiu, "Hmph, concede, or else you'll even lose your life."

Leng Qingqiu got to her feet, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her expression turning severe, showing a hint of sternness.

With a gesture from her right hand, the Ruthless Sword in the ground zipped out, flying to her front.

The light gradually became more intense.

Leng Qingqiu made the Water Bottle Seal with both hands in front of her, then raised her hands, and the Ruthless Sword whizzed into the sky, disappearing into the clouds,

When it fell back down, it was completely transformed, shining coldly, like an icy sword itself.

The sword body, like a spinning top, whirled rapidly; for every rotation, a wave of icy chill emanated from the blade.

Wave after wave of chill energy, like ripples, spread out from the Ruthless Sword as the center, expanding outward like a vast, chilly current, quickly frosting the ground with a half-foot layer of ice.

The spectators below the stage were shivering from the spread of the icy air, with those of weaker Cultivation Bases finding it difficult even to breathe.

And at this point, Leng Qingqiu's complexion had turned pale, her black hair visibly turning white at a speed noticeable to the naked eye…

The Path of Ruthlessness, Cold Fiend!

The strong practitioner with the Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable saw that Leng Qingqiu had finally used the Path of Ruthlessness, and his heart sank, his face becoming solemn, but he didn't shrink back. He held the Ring of Ten Thousand Beasts aloft with his left hand, and his right hand formed a hand gesture, swiping in front of the ring…

Suddenly, the Golden Ring emitted a pleasant sound, and then a mist rose behind it, and with a roar, a Phantom Beast burst forth, closely followed by another emerging from behind the ring.

The two Phantom Beasts let out earth-shaking roars, lunging toward Leng Qingqiu with teeth and claws.

But...

As soon as the two Phantom Beasts encountered the Aura of Cold Fiend, their swift forms slowed down significantly; after running forward for about ten meters, their speed decreased even further, showing signs of contraction and fear, apparently unable to withstand the invasion of the Cold Fiend.

When the two Phantom Beasts reached about five meters in front of Leng Qingqiu, they were frozen as if in place, their bodies covered in a layer of ice, solidified midair…

The spectators below the stage and all those within the Emperor's Immortal Carriage were stunned by this scene.

There were indeed many who cultivated the Ruthless Path, but someone at Leng Qingqiu's level was a rare sight even throughout the entire Yellow Dragon Empire.

The Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable's Cultivator, seeing his Phantom Beasts frozen by the Cold Fiend, felt a surge of panic and helplessness, but it was impossible for him to concede the match at this point. So he swung his hand in front of the Phantom Beast Ring, four times in succession…

Immediately...

Roar, roar, roar, roar…

Four roars emanated from behind the Phantom Beast Ring, and then four Phantom Beasts sprung out in quick succession. Under the control of the Fourfold Body, they lined up in a row and charged toward Leng Qingqiu…

Leng Qingqiu waved her right hand, and the two frozen Phantom Beasts in front of her shattered into icy fragments on the ground.

```

Then she formed hand gestures with both hands, waving them once and again, the Ruthless Sword spun even faster, and the Aura of Cold Fiend scattered even more fiercely...

At this moment, Leng Qingqiu's black hair had completely turned white, including her eyebrows, and even her eyelashes had turned white...

Four Phantom Beasts attacked in a row; the one at the front could shield the one behind it from some of the Aura of Cold Fiend. The Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable Cultivator aimed to use this to shock the Ruthless Sword.

He had long realized that Leng Qingqiu's Cold Fiend was channeled through the Ruthless Sword, drawing the Aura of Cold Fiend from the heavens and earth before dispersing it. If the Ruthless Sword could be knocked aside, then the Aura of Cold Fiend would dissipate on its own.

As the four Phantom Beasts entered the range of the Cold Fiend, they began to shiver from the cold, and their speed of attack noticeably slowed. However, under the control of the Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable Cultivator, they still charged forward without any thought of turning back...

Finally, when they were fifteen meters from the Ruthless Sword, the first Phantom Beast was frozen stiff; the three behind it continued to charge forward,

At ten meters, the second Phantom Beast was encased in ice.

The remaining two Phantom Beasts leaped over the second one, continuing their charge.

At five meters, the third Phantom Beast was frozen stiff.

The fourth Phantom Beast surged past the third one and, with a thunderous charge, headed straight for the Ruthless Sword that was within eyeshot...

However, just one meter from the Ruthless Sword, the fourth Phantom Beast was also frozen by the Aura of Cold Fiend.

Just when everyone thought the outcome was decided, the Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable Cultivator released an Avatar, and charged towards the Ruthless Sword.

The Cold Fiend was extremely powerful, but it had a drawback: the spellcaster would suffer backlash from the Cold Fiend, especially someone like Leng Qingqiu who had only recently mastered it and still couldn't wield it freely. She was inevitably subjected to the fierce backlash of the spell.

Her complexion had turned deathly pale, and even her eyeballs had turned white, making her look like a demoness at first glance!

Seeing the opponent's Avatar pounce, Leng Qingqiu's eyes flashed, realizing he intended to use the self-destructive Avatar to impact the Ruthless Sword. So, she waved the hand gestures even faster in desperation, causing the Ruthless Sword to spin even quicker and the Aura of Cold Fiend to grow even denser.

The Avatar of the Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable Cultivator charged at the Ruthless Sword and, upon entering the range of the Cold Fiend, its speed significantly decreased. At fifteen meters from the Ruthless Sword, it could hardly move, and by ten meters, its body nearly froze...

At that moment...

He struggled to raise his right hand, forming a Life and Death Rune, and slapped it onto his forehead.

Boom!!

The Avatar exploded, skin and flesh burst open as if a meaty grenade had detonated. The Essence of Flesh and Blood and True Yuan, under the trigger of the Life and Death Talisman, transformed into thousands of flying swords, shooting towards the Ruthless Sword and Leng Qingqiu.

Leng Qingqiu stood still, moving her hand gestures more urgently, making the Ruthless Sword spin to the point of becoming almost invisible, the Aura of Cold Fiend becoming so dense it seemed to solidify like ice.

Several hundred flesh swords, just a foot away from the Ruthless Sword, were frozen into icicles.

Seeing that the Avatar's self-explosion failed to shake the Ruthless Sword, the Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable turned pale, said "I admit defeat,"

With that, he turned and fled towards the edge of the arena.

However, Leng Qingqiu's eyes turned cold, and with a wave of her hand, the Ruthless Sword, spinning, charged towards that Cultivator of the Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable. Before he could jump off the arena, it struck him.

The Sixfold Body of the Immortal Venerable was blasted away; as he fell, his body rapidly whitened, turning his hair, skin, lips, eyeballs, nails, completely pale. Not only that, but his internal organs and all flesh turned white, completely corrupted by the Aura of Cold Fiend.

When he crashed heavily onto the ground, he had already become a cold corpse,

The crowd scattered to dodge, but still, a few were invaded by the Aura of Cold Fiend from the body. Though it was not fatal, a few days of chills were inevitable.

Looking back at the arena, Leng Qingqiu had won the match, but at this moment, she was suffering from the backlash of the Cold Fiend, trembling all over from the cold,

She hugged her arms as she walked down from the arena. She had just reached the bottom of the arena when she became weak, collapsed on the ground, curling into a ball, her lips trembling from the cold. Her consciousness... gradually blurred...

The onlookers jumped away to dodge, fearing the invasion of the Cold Fiend from her body.

There was one exception.

That person was Wang Xiaoqiang.

Wang Xiaoqiang walked over directly, opened his arms, and embraced Leng Qingqiu. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at Qidian (qidian.com), and your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
