Chapter 448: Polar Domain of Fortune and Calamity

"Alright," Wu Bingji nodded without saying much. He had always known Tang San had a number of secrets, and this was made painfully clear when he defeated the peak ninth-order Lion-Tiger Sword Saint. That feat required abilities beyond his understanding.

Now Tang San was about to challenge a god-level powerhouse. Wu Bingji wanted to see how deep his junior brother's reserves were and what he relied on to face such an opponent.

He moved away to a safe distance, while Tang San and Huang Bingbing stood facing each other, only a dozen meters apart.

Huang Bingbing said coldly, "Do you really want to fight me? It's not too late to stop. How about this? I can promise to spare his life. Even if the clan ultimately doesn't agree to cooperate with humans, I will protect his life."

Asura shook his head and said, "My senior brother can't go with you, at least not now. If the Ice Maiden clan truly allies with humans in the future, then he can go back, even to find his mother, but not now."

Huang Bingbing said indifferently, "I didn't expect you to be so stubborn. Well, if you want to do this, let’s do this. Let me see how you defeat me."

Her aura changed abruptly as she spoke, and a sudden chill spread like a cold night.

A flash of light emanated from Asura, and in an instant, he was a hundred meters away, directly widening the distance between himself and Huang Bingbing. It was the teleportation array disc he had shown her earlier.

At such close range against a tenth-order nymph, he wouldn't have many chances to use his abilities before being simply steamrolled. He was very familiar with Wu Bingji's Ice Nymph Transformation; the most vital aspect of the ice element was its ability to control the fight, not its hardness or whatever. Moreover, he had experienced the chilling power of Huang Bingbing's god-level abilities firsthand.

Therefore, he first moved to widen the distance between them at the start of the fight.

A hundred meters distance was far even for a god's attacks.

Watching him teleport in an instant, Huang Bingbing's eyes flickered.

This teleportation array disc is really interesting!

Then she saw that Tang San had a hammer in his hand, a black hammer that emitted a faint red glow.

It was Sky Shatterer!

When this hammer appeared, a scorching aura naturally arose around Asura, blocking out the overwhelming cold accompanying his teleportation.

This was one of Tang San's sources of confidence in challenging a tenth-order powerhouse. Sky Shatterer was made of Heavenly Fire Essence Iron and modified by Tang San. Now, it was his forging hammer, but also his strongest weapon.

In his previous life, Tang San's best weapon had also been the hammer. After all, apart from the Blue Silver Emperor, he also had the Clear Sky Hammer as his martial soul—the one as the strongest tool soul.

With the hammer in hand, his aura suddenly surged. His eyes brightened, and a faint purple glow burst forth, causing his spiritual power to increase dramatically.

But at the same time, a five-hundred-meter area centered around Huang Bingbing had already turned into a world of ice and snow.

Yes, it was that fast. At the god level, forming a basic domain within a certain range was within the realm of possibility, especially for someone like the leader of the Ice Maiden clan.

The ground froze, becoming as smooth as a mirror. Large snowflakes floated in the air, and the temperature plummeted. Even Wu Bingji, who also possessed her bloodline and had retreated to a distance, could feel the intense cold.

Wu Bingji's eyes widened as he watched the impending battle unfold. He understood that he had been brought here not just to watch Tang San, but also to observe Huang Bingbing's combat methods. After all, she was the true heir of the Ice Maidens. Wu Bingji was sure to learn a lot from her combat style.

Isn’t this basically an expanded version of my own Ice Path? An ice world, I guess you’d call it?

In this domain, ice element users would undoubtedly experience a significant boost in their power.

Huang Bingbing's graceful body slid across the ground, shooting toward Asura like an ice arrow from a hundred meters away.

But at that moment, the light in his eyes changed.

His left eye turned white and his right eye turned black. Above his head, a unique energy seemed to swirl out.

This was the fusion of heaven and hell, the alternation of fortune and calamity— the Polar Domain!

This was the first time Tang San used this domain in battle.

As Huang Bingbing sped forward, she felt her heart skip a beat. The distant Asura grew taller instantly, and everything around her seemed to slip out of her control.

Crack!

The ice on the ground in front of her suddenly cracked, impeding her movement. Additionally, a few snowflakes drifted into her line of sight, blocking her vision.

What shocked Huang Bingbing even more was that her smoothly circulating bloodline power suddenly stagnated and her blood seemed to freeze momentarily, causing her movements to stall and making her grunt in frustration.

Though she forcefully activated her divine consciousness, resolving the problem just the next moment, her charge was affected and failed to reach Asura.

At that moment, Tang San moved. He spun in place, and at the same time, he swung Sky Shatterer.

Blinding platinum light burst out from his entire body. When that platinum light infused the hammer, it turned into a bright crimson gold. Intense heat erupted, instantly turning the surrounding cold into scorching heat as Sky Shatterer was infused with the power of the Lion-Tiger Golden Astral. The Heavenly Fire Essence Iron of the hammer radiated dazzling light, and the scorching energy surged out as if to melt the entire world, rushing toward Huang Bingbing.

The Polar Domain represented the extremes of fortune and calamity. Enemies faced extreme misfortune, while the user experienced extreme luck.

The most magical aspect was that the domain forcefully balanced fortune and calamity. The unluckier the opponent, the luckier Tang San would be, without the risk of backlash from overusing luck the way it happened with the Celestial Fox Transformation.

Huang Bingbing struck out with her right hand, but her foot inexplicably slipped. How was this possible for a being literally made of ice?

Her bloodline power stagnated again, significantly weakening her strike. She had to forcibly stimulate her bloodline energy to create an ice pillar before her, barely blocking Sky Shatterer's blow.

But the scorching hammer force instantly shattered the ice pillar, and the intense heat affected Huang Bingbing!

Tang San used the momentum to spin, launching the second strike of Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer. He was incredibly fast, his acceleration aided by the reduced friction from the ice beneath his feet. Yet even with this reduced friction, he showed no signs of losing control. The second strike landed just as Huang Bingbing was about to gather her strength again but hadn't yet completed the process.

This time Huang Bingbing was struck back three steps. She hadn't even been able to use thirty percent of her full strength.

Huang Bingbing felt incredibly frustrated. Although her cultivation was much stronger than her opponent's, she kept experiencing inexplicable accidents.

"Are you from the Celestial Fox clan? What is going on?" Huang Bingbing shouted angrily.

Tang San didn't stop, launching one hammer strike after another. Under the effect of Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer, each strike was heavier than the last. Huang Bingbing never managed to regain her footing and, to Wu Bingji's astonished gaze from a distance, was continuously forced back by Tang San.

The effect was even better than Tang San had expected. Even a god-level powerhouse like Huang Bingbing was greatly affected, and that was even though they were fighting on flat and clean ground where he could not use the environment in his favor.
