Chapter 330: A Single Sword Strike Cleaves the Thunderveil Godbeast!

One of the towering glaciers in the sky transformed into a spear seemingly capable of piercing through the heavens and aimed at the Thunder Pool.

"That thing is too large and unwieldy. It's useless against me." The Thunderveil Godbeast grinned mockingly.

The small Thunder Pool darted nimbly around the thousand-zhang-tall glaciers, and the spear-shaped glacier could not lock onto it.

The Thunderveil Godbeast effortlessly controlled the Thunder Pool, maneuvering it with lightning speed while continuing its barrage of fierce lightning strikes.

Seven colossal bolts of lightning, each a different color, lashed out at the nine glaciers.

The nine towering glaciers burst with icy light as they swayed violently in the air.

Crack!

The glaciers fractured and massive chunks of ice crashed down to the earth.

Pang Jian found his strength was draining quickly.

Seeing the dire situation, he decisively moved the ice shards within the Heart of Winter away from the core.

The nine towering glaciers followed suit, retreating millions of li away from the Thunder Pool to hover at the edge of the Forbidden Land of the Thunder God.

They then released nine beams of radiant cold light.

These beams shot directly at the Thunder Pool, intent on destroying the Thunderveil Godbeast's puppet body.

"A human is wielding the Ice Demon's artifact?" The Thunderveil Godbeast's expression changed.

The beams of radiant cold light were locked onto the Thunder Pool, and no matter how the Thunderveil Godbeast moved it, the nine beams of icy light would follow.

"Block them!"

The seven resplendent bolts of colorful lightning gathered around the small Thunder Pool, encircling it like cascading waterfalls and blocking the beams of cold light released.

Boom! Crack!

It was a collision of lightning and cold.

"Boy, do you truly believe you can outlast me in the Forbidden Land of the Thunder God and with the Thunder Pool in my hands?

"The nine glaciers will shatter, your strength will be exhausted, and the brilliance of the Heart of Winter will eventually fade.

"When that inevitably happens, I'll kill you!" The Thunderveil Godbeast sneered as it stood on the shifting Dao Seals and bared its fangs at Pang Jian.

Its azure eyes brimmed with unshakable confidence.

A sea of lightning formed in the skies above the Forbidden Land of the Thunder God, and the small silvery-white pool floated above it.

Red, orange, yellow, green, teal, blue, purple—seven radiant lightning bolts appeared like seven Thunder Gods had manifested and imbued their understanding of the Dao of Lightning into the sea of lightning.

Boom!

Deafening thunderclaps rumbled as enormous streaks of lightning erupted from the sea of lightning, firmly intercepting the nine beams of cold light.

Not a single beam could approach the pool floating above the sea of lightning.

The Thunderveil Godbeast sneered as he stood atop the Dao Seals and controlled the Thunder Pool. "I know you've been nurturing the Nether Abyss Spirit Bees in your soul sea, but you're already aware they cannot devour my divine consciousness.

"You may wield the Heart of Winter, but your cultivation is shallow. How long do you think you can last?

"Boy, you won't survive for long."

Meanwhile, the nine glaciers hovering at the edge of the Forbidden Land of the Thunder God had started to shrink and their radiant divine light gradually dimmed.

The once-ten-thousand-zhang-tall glaciers had shrunk to two-thirds of their original size.

Crack!

Several snow-capped peaks in the adjacent Frozen Land collapse with a thunderous boom and ancient frozen lakes shattered violently.

The solid, frost-covered earth split open with deep fissures.

The Heart of Winter, the glaciers, the snow peaks, and the Frozen Land were interconnected—when one thrived, so did the rest, and when one suffered, the others would too.

"The Thunder Pool and the Divine Court of Thunder are indeed extraordinary," The Spider God, Yang Luo, elegantly twirled a strand of hair around a pale finger as she watched the scene from high in the skies.

"Pang Jian, you must hold a great secret to have been able to obtain the Heart of Winter from the Frozen Land. Once you die, that secret will be mine."

Yang Luo glanced at the silvery-white pool above the sea of lightning.

"Lei Meng, when his body and soul are destroyed, do you mind if I search him?" she asked.

"All I want is the Heart of Winter. I'll take nothing else from him besides that!" The Thunderveil Godbeast arrogantly said. "The power of cold and lightning can coexist. This artifact, tempered by the core of Winter, will be just as powerful in my hands!"

"Very well." Yang Luo nodded, pleased.

Yang Luo believed Pang Jian possessed treasures more extraordinary than the Heart of Winter. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to wield such a powerful artifact and nurture Nether Abyss Soul Bees.

In the Frozen Land, Zhuang Yuyan, Qi Qingsong, and the Ice Race watched as the Frozen Land seemed to crumble beneath their feet.

"Pang Jian!"

"Sir!"

They anxiously gazed toward the distant sky.

The Forbidden Land of the Thunder God was wrapped in a pale white mist that obscured their view.

Although they could still make out the vast sea of lightning and the nine glaciers, they could neither see the Thunder Pool nor Pang Jian.

However, they could hear the conversation between the Thunderveil Godbeast and the Spider God, Yang Luo.

"Pang Jian's in danger!" Qi Qingsong frowned. "Senior Sister, is there any way we can help Pang Jian?"

Zhou Qingchen and Dong Tianze were equally anxious.

"Help Pang Jian?" Zhuang Yuyan let out a helpless sigh. "I don't know what's happening with Little Junior Brother, but do you truly think we can participate in a battle of this level?

"This is a battle between Gods! Little Junior Brother's power far surpasses Fu Wangchen with his ancient god Dharma Idol!

"Not to mention, the Thunderveil Godbeast has formed the perfect puppet body from the iron tree and controls the miraculous Thunder Pool.

"So, don't go throwing your lives away, and don't distract Little Junior Brother at a critical moment!" Zhuang Yuyan calmly advised.

"I agree," Fifth Elder Bing Ying chimed in before addressing the eager Ice Race warriors, "Lord Pang Jian is using every ounce of his strength to fight the Thunderveil Godbeast. As for us..."

Bing Ying shook his head with a bitter smile.

"We are not qualified to participate. We're better off praying for him to win from a distance.

"The Ice Race's path to revival will collapse if he loses. If that happens, the Thunderveil Godbeast will likely hand our Frozen Land over to the Frost Crystal God and our extinction will be inevitable."

The terrified Ice Race warriors sat down and prayed fervently for Pang Jian's victory.

"Sir, you must win!"

"You're the last hope for our Ice Race!"

"Please, continue to create miracles for us!"

The prayers of the Ice Race warriors echoed within the Heart of Winter and into the ears of Pang Jian's golden figure.

It was like he had become the dead Ice Demon, listening to the heartfelt prayers of his faithful followers.

Boom! Crack!

The nine glaciers shattered into chunks of ice.

Blood streamed from the seven orifices on Pang Jian's exhausted face as he strained to control the glaciers.

The Spider God sneered, "You dare challenge us with a mere human body? How naive. Do you think you're a True God, boy?"

"Heh! Do you think you can outlast me?" The Thunderveil Godbeast mocked.

Pang Jian closed his eyes, vision impaired from blood, and forced himself to remain calm.

Is there really no way to outlast him?

Cold energy...what else can it merge with? Can my other energies be channeled through the Heart of Winter and the nine glaciers? Can I somehow link them to my spiritual sea?

My Primordial Chaos Spiritual Sea allows me to understand the fusion of different types of energies and how they can be used to produce even greater strength.

Perhaps...

Pang Jian was hit with a flash of inspiration.

Calming his mind, he recalled the sublime sensation of his energies intertwining.

He then peered into his dantian at the two radiant moons—one full and one crescent.

The cold radiance of lunar energy has always blended perfectly with my cold energy. My attribute-less spiritual power can also fuse with anything.

Different types of energies coexist in my Primordial Chaos Spiritual Sea.

Pang Jian started to gather his different types of energy.

He had long known that divine sense was the best conduit for every type of energy.

That golden figure formed from his divine sense held the core of Winter in its palm, with the ice shards corresponding to the nine glaciers hovering close by.

Merge!

Bright lunar energy and thick spiritual power streamed into the nine ice shards like water.

Whoosh!

A mysterious green radiance akin to the full moon of the Nine Heavens[1] merged with the cold light of the nine glaciers.

Faint stellar energy and lightning also seeped into the glaciers in the wake of the lunar energy and spiritual power.

The trace amounts of lighting from the lightning vortex within Pang Jian's spiritual sea seemed to bestow the nine glaciers with mystical properties, infusing the cold light with the profound essence of lightning.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Nine beams of radiant blue-green light shot from the nine glaciers and pierced straight through the sea of lightning!

The sea of lightning, sensing the lightning essence in the blue-green light, did not release its destructive power.

Whoosh!

The nine beams of blue-green light passed through the sea of lightning and converged into a single pillar of light above the Thunder Pool.

This pillar was like a sharp, cold sword that sliced down at the Thunderveil Godbeast hidden at the bottom of the pool.

𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Skrrak!

The sword cleaved the Thunderveil Godbeast's puppet body into two.

Lightning bolts in the pool soon eradicated the pieces of the iron tree that remained.

The Thunderveil Godbeast's puppet body would never move again.
