Chapter 283: Water Authority, Diverting the Sea!
Upon seeing this scene, everyone in the Li family’s convoy almost knelt down.
They had witnessed a god!
Initially, they thought the opposing side was just an ordinary beautiful maiden, but none of them had expected Zhong Ningxue to possess such terrifying combat prowess!
Both Li Da and Li Er were known to them; these two had been arrogant, powerful, cold-blooded, and ruthless with no regard for others.
When they arrived earlier, everyone in the convoy thought they were at a dead end. But just as all hope seemed lost, the situation changed dramatically!
“Woman, do you really intend to wipe us out entirely without retreating even one step?”
Li Da held onto Li Er’s arm, his eyes filled with fury.
They had originally thought this mission was a certain success, but an unexpected obstacle emerged, causing them to fail at the last moment.
“Why so much talk? Haste and destroy your cultivation yourself. Don’t make me exert more effort. And don’t even think of running away, or you’ll have a hard time!”
Upon hearing these words, Li Da’s face twitched violently.
This maiden was truly terrifying, having not yet used her full strength, yet the two brothers were already at their limit, unable to even attempt an escape.
“Indeed, she is divine!”
Below, the Guard Leader’s eyes sparkled with admiration, although the gaze was directed toward Zhou Tong who had remained inactive on the side.
If Zhong Ningxue had become so powerful, Zhou Tong’s strength must be even more fearsome!
“Hmph! You truly believe we are powerless? Do not blame us for our last stand if you press us too hard!”
Li Er said with a fierce expression, indicating that they still had one more trump card.
It was the Sacred Weapon, the Nether River Water.
Once this killing move was unleashed, everyone in the convoy was sure to perish, but they would then have to face Zhong Ningxue’s wrath. They did not wish to perish together unless absolutely necessary.
“Empty threats!”
Zhong Ningxue paid no attention, her killing intent only intensifying as she pressed forward, confident in overcoming their trump card if it indeed existed.
“Fine… Fine… Fine… Since you show no mercy, don’t blame us for our ruthlessness!”
In the middle of their declaration, they both simultaneously lifted a black box. The power radiating from it struck fear into everyone’s hearts.
“Sacred Weapon!”
Zhong Ningxue instinctively stopped in her tracks, her pupils shrinking as her face turned serious.
“Haha… now you know to be afraid, but it’s too late!”
The brothers, with a crazed expression, wasted no time in using all their strength, opening the cover!
“Splash!!!”
Pitch-black Nether River water surged out violently, transforming instantly into a torrential flood!
Even worse, this water contained rules that could completely sever life. Ordinary beings would perish upon contact, making it an extremely lethal weapon comparable to a heavenly disaster!
“Dammit!!!”
Zhong Ningxue cursed under her breath. Though she had no fear of the Nether River Water, she could not stop it in time to save the convoy below.
“Aaaaagh…”
Everyone below, seeing the hellish water descending from the skies, felt like helpless driftwood. They could only scream in terror, unable to resist.
Even the Guard Leader stared fearfully at Zhou Tong!
“Guest Senior, you must quickly use your unparalleled strength and come up with a solution!”
Though he screamed in his mind, he still dared not to speak the words aloud.
“Stand down. The rest is my responsibility.”
Zhou Tong transmitted his message, making Zhong Ningxue’s face light up with joy.
Finally, their master was going to take action!
Zhou Tong closed his eyes, beginning to communicate with the Quasi-Emperor Weapon within him.
“Heavenly Cold Snow Pearl, obey my command!”
He intended to use its freezing cold to ice up the vast flood.
However, after the first call, there was no response. Instead, the first sound he heard was a breath.
Then, intermittent voices from the Four Annihilators of the 麟 arrived.
“Do not speak, I am in the middle of an in-depth exchange of rules with Snow Pearl Sister. This is the crucial moment!”
“Ugh… Mirror Brother, you devil!”
Zhou Tong was as if struck by lightning, feeling utterly astonished. This was the first time he was hearing the voice of Heavenly Cold Snow Pearl — not bad, the artifact spirit should be a beauty, no wonder…
“No, what am I thinking!?”
He quickly snapped out of it, never expecting that artifact spirits could engage in such activities. He had not anticipated that the relationship between them would progress so fast.
It should be noted that originally Heavenly Cold Snow Pearl was meant for Snow Woman to monitor Zhou Tong. From what he observed now, it had taken the form of a mirror!
Even the Snow Woman herself probably had no inkling that her painstakingly nurtured Quasi-Emperor Weapon would be so easily gained by Zhou Tong. If she found out, she would surely lose her mind!
“Mirror Brother… you must not do this, the master is watching.”
“Who is the master? Just a mere servant of the Emperor. Pay no heed to him!”
“In fact, in our recent rule exchange, I discovered three vulnerabilities in you. Allow me to fill them immediately!”
“Ah… You bad egg!”
Zhou Tong was infuriated by these two things and immediately blocked out their voices. “Don’t think that without you, I cannot handle the situation at hand.”
As the Nether River Water continued to rush down, Zhou Tong sighed deeply.
“Apparently, it’s time to use that long-forgotten ability again!”
The next moment, Zhou Tong’s brow emitted a shine, which only lasted a second before flickering out. Only the Guard Leader closest to him noticed a subtle change.
“Water Authority, Diverting the Sea!”
He silently recited in his heart. With the Authority of Water, he could manipulate any water source in the world effortlessly. Whether it was water from a Sacred Weapon or even water-based attacks of a Holy King level, none of it could harm him in the slightest.
Of course, achieving this level of control was only possible with his Imperial-level spirit. If someone else possessed the Authority, they could not possibly achieve such effects.
“Boom!!”
Under everyone’s astonished gaze, the Nether River water did not continue its rampage but instead split apart, bypassing everyone in the convoy. Moreover, it formed towering walls on both sides!
Not just that, the Ji Water ahead was also split apart by an unseen force, creating a wide and dry path, without a single drop of water!
“Miracle, this is truly a miracle!!”
Hot tears streamed down people’s faces, even the young miss couldn’t help but kneel down before Zhong Ningxue, assuming it was her doing!
“Impossible, even if you are a Sage, it is absolutely impossible for you to achieve such a feat. Quickly, what method did you use?”
Li Da and Li Er were already speaking incoherently, unable to contain their panic.
Not only them, but even Zhong Ningxue couldn’t help but widen her eyes in disbelief, looking at Zhou Tong. She knew the master was strong, but she hadn’t anticipated this level.
“Even with this ability, even in a confrontation with the Four Heavenly Kings, one might still come out unscathed.”
Just as this thought surfaced, Zhong Ningxue quickly dismissed it.
Revenge for the slaughter of her clan must be hers alone to enact!
“This should conclude!”
Zhong Ningxue gazed coldly at Li Da and Li Er, making their souls tremble.
“Dammit, it’s not that easy!”
In desperation, they channeled the Nether River Water, turning it into water knives, attempting to block Zhong Ningxue!
“What’s going on?!”
At this moment, Mirror’s voice echoed within Zhou Tong’s mind.
“Hmm? Turns out it’s another Sacred Weapon. The Emperor and Snow Pearl Sister need someone to serve them well, and she fits the role perfectly!”
