Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

Chapter 449: Suppressing the Ice Maiden Clan Leader

Tang San didn't know that the Polar Domain of Fortune and Calamity was not something unique to himself, but a hallmark of god-level Celestial Fox clan members. Only Celestial Foxes at the god level, with seven tails or more, could cultivate the Celestial Fox Transformation to the extent of generating a domain. He had obtained this domain's power in the Hell Garden by a stroke of luck, and being able to use it while only at the four-tail level was something unprecedented.

However, while the Polar Domain was immensely powerful, it also consumed a lot of spiritual power. Tang San's peak ninth-order spiritual power was depleting at an astonishing rate. Fortunately, it was extremely robust and profound, thanks to being bolstered by his divine consciousness. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to maintain it for long.

Moreover, Tang San found that the higher the level of the beings within his Polar Domain, the greater the consumption of his spiritual power. Additionally, the consumption was much greater when using this domain in the outside world compared to the Hell Garden.

At this moment, he was trapping a god-level cultivator. The rapid consumption of his spiritual power surprised even Tang San.

Huang Bingbing's shock was even more incredible. When Asura unleashed the Polar Domain, she felt immense pressure, as if her very fate was being altered. This sensation was excruciating. More importantly, Huang Bingbing couldn't smoothly activate her energy to use her abilities. Asura's Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer became heavier with each strike, and coupled with the intense heat from the Lion-Tiger Golden Astral and the Sky-Shatterer, it made her extremely uncomfortable.

"Ah!" A scream burst from Huang Bingbing's mouth as her divine consciousness erupted in the next instant. A snowflake-shaped ice-blue mark appeared in the center of her forehead. Her powerful divine consciousness surged almost instantly, aimed solely at breaking free from the Polar Domain.

Faced with her divine consciousness explosion, Tang San was not alarmed but pleased. Almost simultaneously, he retracted the Polar Domain.

The consumption of spiritual power was too great; if he continued, he would be unable to sustain it due to excessive depletion, even without Huang Bingbing defeating him. He had been waiting for her divine consciousness explosion. Just like the domain was draining him, this kind of explosion was immensely consuming for her; she had to give her all to break free from the domain's power.

Given the difference in their cultivation, Tang San had no intention of letting his Polar Domain clash head-on with her divine consciousness. As Huang Bingbing's divine consciousness exploded, Tang San used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, continuing his Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer. He struck three consecutive blows at Huang Bingbing; while she blocked with an ice shield, she was still forced back, her aura in disarray.

However, without the suppression of the Polar Domain, the unbearable feeling of wanting to vomit blood finally disappeared. Huang Bingbing quickly retreated, ice forming under her feet to increase her speed. A massive snowstorm erupted, sweeping toward Tang San.

Tang San did not pursue but instead spun in place, his Sky Shatterer swirling like a tornado around him. The heat from the Heavenly Fire Essence Iron empowered his Lion-Tiger Golden Astral, creating a ten-meter diameter around him where no ice or snow could exist.

As Huang Bingbing was about to catch her breath, an inexplicable sense of danger came from her divine consciousness. She instantly formed four ice shields around herself.

Boom—

An ice shield shattered. Somehow, Tang San had navigated through the snowstorm and appeared right before her. He launched another series of heavy strikes using the force from his Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer technique.

How did he do that? Huang Bingbing was shocked. Although the battle had only lasted briefly, Asura had already brought her too many shocks. Navigating freely within her snowstorm without being detected and reappearing in front of her to attack was simply unbelievable. Could it be the teleportation array disc again?

Of course it wasn’t. The teleportation array disk required time to recharge after activation and wasn't that easy to use anyway. But Tang San had another teleportation ability: the Peacock Transformation’s space control!

The abilities of this bloodline imprint allowed for instantaneous movement within a reasonable distance. Of course, Huang Bingbing had no way of knowing that, and even if someone told her so, she wouldn’t believe it. And having finally suppressed this formidable opponent, how could Tang San give her a chance to pull herself together?

In terms of cultivation, he was far inferior to Huang Bingbing. But when it came to battle experience, even a hundred Huang Bingbings couldn't compare to him.

Huang Bingbing retreated again, and at the same time, ice spikes shot out from her body in all directions. The ground also erupted with huge ice spikes, sealing off all surrounding space.

Tang San didn't retreat at all. Continuing with the Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer technique, he used the miraculous Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to move through the ice spike array. His heavy hammer struck Huang Bingbing with unerring accuracy, forcing her to defend herself and keeping her in an unfavorable state.

In Huang Bingbing's eyes, Asura's figure seemed illusory, yet with each strike, the scorching hammer only became heavier and heavier.

Huang Bingbing was actually best at mid-range combat, typical for most elemental energy users. At the beginning of today's battle, she chose to approach Asura out of confidence in her strength, thinking close-range attacks would secure a faster victory and be easier to control. In addition, she feared that her mid- and long-range attacks would be too powerful for him to handle, and she didn’t really want him to get injured.

With that, she had fallen into Asura's rhythm. Even as a peak tenth-order powerhouse, she was being forced to retreat step by step.

White light flickered in Tang San's eyes. His Discerning Eye of Heaven offered him the fortune control of the Celestial Foxes and the abilities of the Aetherhorn Deer lineage. He could observe how the ice elemental energy operated, where it was most potent, and where it was weakest. Moreover, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track always allowed him to evade danger at the last moment and appear at the opponent's weakest spots. Even without the assistance of the Polar Domain, Huang Bingbing still couldn't escape his rhythm.

Of course, Sky Shatterer played a crucial role as well. Without the Heavenly Fire Essence Iron, even the powerful Lion-Tiger Golden Astral wouldn’t be enough to counteract the extreme cold.

Tang San's blood and Qi surged within him, the powerful recovery of the Mysterious Heaven Technique supporting his continuous energy output. The Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer technique pushed his attack power to the limit, and the dazzling platinum light of the Lion-Tiger Golden Astral grew even stronger.

Huang Bingbing was starting to feel the strain. Suppressed by Asura’s incredible hammer technique, she felt an increasing sense of pressure and pain in her chest. Such head-on combat had never been her forte.

At this moment of crisis, she let out a cold snort, and the ice-blue mark on her forehead shone once more. The next moment, all the surrounding ice and snow suddenly converged toward her. A massive, coffin-like ice structure enveloped her.

Boom, boom, boom!

Three consecutive strikes hit the ice coffin but only left shallow marks. Yet although it seemed like she was about to lose and Tang San could continue attacking, he chose to retreat.

The ice-blue coffin emitted a profound radiance, and the surrounding cold intensified geometrically.

Where did the Ice Maiden clan come from? They were born from millennia-old ice gaining spiritual intelligence—ice that was extremely cold and incredibly hard. At this moment, the Ice Maiden clan leader, Huang Bingbing, was using her innate ability, her very essence as an ice elemental being.

Tang San’s retreat was the right move.

The next instant, the ice-blue coffin turned dark blue, and Huang Bingbing reappeared like an undead emerging from its coffin. Her long hair had turned dark blue, and even her eyes had become dark blue as well. The aura she radiated due to her cultivation hadn’t really increased, but the ice elemental energy around her had changed dramatically. The ice elemental energy around her seemed to intertwine with a massive amount of spiritual power, becoming extremely dense.

Within a thirty-meter radius around her, the energy had no other elemental attributes whatsoever; the area was now a world of pure ice.
