Chapter 93

Yitian stood facing the Demon Snake King, feeling an overwhelming sense of danger from him, a threat that could endanger himself. The Demon Snake King's eyes were icy cold. He looked at Yitian, slowly raised his right hand, and suddenly struck out with a palm. A massive true essence hand, dozens of zhang in size, appeared, shattering the hundred-zhang void in an instant, and an extremely cold and chilling aura swept over.

Before the palm even landed, Yitian's body felt a bone-chilling cold, stimulating both his flesh and soul. "Break!" Yitian's body was enveloped in a brilliant light, like the sun, radiating a terrifying heat. He struck out with a palm. Boom... Suddenly, a shocking explosion erupted in the sky. A terrifying force swept in all directions, a series of explosions and destruction followed one after another, and the void within two to three hundred zhang was shattered, becoming chaotic. Yitian's figure was forced back hundreds of zhang.

In the previous clash with the Demon Snake King, Yitian did not gain any advantage, but he was not suppressed either. Clearly, Yitian's supreme yang true essence was more powerful than the Demon Snake King's, allowing him to match the Demon Snake King's attack at the Essence Method level. The Demon Snake King also realized that Yitian's cultivation technique was of a higher grade than his own Yin Transformation Profound Art. Otherwise, he would not have been able to resist the Demon Snake King's casual strike at the Essence Method level without any sign of suppression.

A cold light flashed in the Demon Snake King's eyes, and for the first time, he truly harbored the intent to kill Yitian. He was extremely envious. Yitian's cultivation technique was clearly far superior to his Yin Transformation Profound Art. After all, his Yin Transformation Profound Art was a high-grade Earth Rank technique, already extremely powerful among techniques of the same rank. "Kill him!" The Demon Snake King, filled with jealousy and hatred, suddenly burst with a shocking aura, a terrifying cold and icy chill spreading, causing the entire world to freeze with a layer of frost.

In an instant, the Demon Snake King rushed hundreds of zhang to Yitian's front, striking out with the Yin Transformation Shadow Palm, which was unremarkable and lacked any grandeur. However, Yitian felt the terrifying power of this palm, more dangerous than the previous attack. "Fight!" Yitian shouted, his fighting spirit rising, and he charged forward, his fist condensed with supreme yang true essence, forming a small sun that unleashed a powerful strike. Boom! The Yin Transformation Shadow Palm collided with Yitian's fist. The small sun-like supreme yang true essence exploded, most of it silently being extinguished by the Yin Transformation Shadow Palm. The Demon Snake King's palm was also broken by Yitian.

A fierce battle erupted instantly, with fist auras and palm imprints colliding and intersecting, the void being continuously destroyed, and terrifying ripples spreading. On the ground, the attacks created large craters and deep fissures. Yitian and the Demon Snake King both radiated boundless light, their Essence Auras manifesting, like two war gods. Yitian's Essence Aura was fiery red, like a divine flame, while the Demon Snake King's was pitch black, cold, and icy. They engaged in intense battles, the power of their attacks reaching terrifying levels.

The Demon Snake King's attacks on Yitian's supreme yang Essence Aura trembled, on the verge of being shattered. Yitian's fists, containing scorching and destructive supreme yang true essence, continuously burned the Demon Snake King's Essence Aura, greatly depleting his true essence. The battle quickly moved away from Lujia Fort to a desolate plain. Yitian, having cultivated the Great Sun Heavenly Art, had an extremely condensed supreme yang true essence, far surpassing those of the same rank. Even the Demon Snake King's Essence Method-level true essence was no match. The Demon Snake King's true essence was already condensed to the extreme, while Yitian's was just beginning to form. If he continued to refine it and reached the peak of Essence Aura, his true essence would far surpass the Demon Snake King's Yin Transformation true essence.

Therefore, their Essence Auras were almost equal in strength, and neither could break through the other's defense. Yitian and the Demon Snake King fought fiercely, the battle evenly matched. In one clash, the Demon Snake King took the opportunity to retreat from the battle. He found it hard to believe that, despite being a rank higher than Yitian, he could not suppress him. Yitian's true essence was too condensed, and it was vast and continuous, seemingly inexhaustible. "Mystic Ice Seal!" The Demon Snake King suddenly burst with a powerful aura, forming a seal with his hands, gathering a vast amount of Yin Transformation true essence. "Not good!" Yitian was startled. The Demon Snake King was using an Essence Method technique, also known as an Essence Method art. This Essence Method technique, after reaching the Essence Method level, was a combat skill evolved from the practitioner's cultivation technique, with immense power, not inferior to human-rank combat skills. The Demon Snake King formed a seal with his hands. "Destroy!" The Mystic Ice Seal suddenly emitted a brilliant light, a terrifying cold instantly spreading throughout the world, a beam of icy, chilling light sweeping over Yitian's position, covering hundreds of zhang. This was the true strength of an Essence Method-level expert. Yitian could sense the extreme destructive and terrifying power from the Mystic Ice Seal, capable of destroying everything. If he was hit, he would be severely injured, if not killed. His condensed Essence Aura could not withstand such a terrifying attack. "Secret Art of Divine Shift!" Faced with this terrifying strike, Yitian could not hold back and fully unleashed the Secret Art of Divine Shift. Boom... The Mystic Ice Seal struck the position where Yitian had been, embedding itself into a mountain several miles away. The mountain was instantly completely frozen. A thousand zhang away, Yitian's figure suddenly appeared. Seeing the power of the Mystic Ice Seal, Yitian couldn't help but draw a cold breath. The power was too terrifying. This was the means of a human-rank Essence Method-level expert. They could already use the essence of their cultivation technique to manifest a bit of the power of heaven and earth, increasing their power by dozens or even hundreds of times. The strength was so great that human-rank Essence Aura-level experts could hardly match it. "He's still alive!" The Demon Snake King's pupils constricted upon seeing Yitian unharmed. Yitian had instantly appeared a thousand zhang away, evading his fatal strike. "What kind of movement technique is this?" The Demon Snake King was shocked and greedy. "Kill!" Yitian launched a counterattack. With the Secret Art of Divine Shift, he appeared in front of the Demon Snake King, forming a Sky Sword with true essence, slashing down like a thunderbolt, radiating a brilliant and world-shattering edge. "What?" The Demon Snake King was suddenly startled. Yitian's attack was too fast, and his eyes were sharply focused, staring at the true essence sword in Yitian's hand, sensing a terrifying danger that brought the smell of death. What a terrifying strike! The Demon Snake King's eyes widened to the extreme. Pfft! The sword light flashed, and the Demon Snake King's figure was cut in two. "Not good!" Yitian realized it was not the Demon Snake King's true body and immediately used the Secret Art of Divine Shift to move away. In an instant, the Demon Snake King appeared nearby, slashing at Yitian's original position. This strike was incredibly terrifying, creating a sword beam over a hundred zhang long, splitting a distant mountain in half, leaving a deep sword mark on the ground. Yitian, appearing three hundred zhang away, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He thought his fatal strike could kill the Demon Snake King, but the Demon Snake King was so cunning, nearly killing him in return. Fortunately, he sensed the danger and immediately used the Secret Art of Divine Shift to move away. "Magic Treasure!" Yitian's gaze fell on the sword in the Demon Snake King's hand, which was sharp and surrounded by swirling essence energy. Yitian didn't expect the Demon Snake King to have a magic treasure. According to his understanding, magic treasures were extremely luxurious for human-rank experts. Having a magic treasure could greatly increase one's strength, even allowing them to contend with someone a rank higher. Some magic treasures were so terrifying that they could easily kill across realms. The value of a common low-grade magic treasure was probably equivalent to the wealth of many human-rank experts. Moreover, Yitian found it unbelievable that the Demon Snake King had evaded his fatal strike. Previously, he had used the Secret Art of Divine Shift to instantly appear in front of the Demon Snake King, forming a Sky Sword with true essence to launch a fatal strike. At the critical moment, the Demon Snake King had managed to deceive him, leaving a manifestation in place to avoid the fatal strike. The Demon Snake King was inwardly shocked and enraged. Yitian's burst of strength was extremely powerful, threatening his life. If not for his cultivation of the Profound Yin Manifestation, which replaced his true body at the critical moment, he would have been decapitated. This made the Demon Snake King both shocked and angry. Thus, the Demon Snake King revealed his last trump card, his low-grade magic treasure, the Autumn Frost Sword. ...
