Talented Martial Hero novel Chapter 950

A flood of enormous true ice intent was hurled at Darren.

Darren swallowed a drop of the holy emperor's power. He could feel a surge of strength run through him, but the true ice intent was starting to freeze his power.

The Water Spirit's true ice intent was so effective that it could even freeze a half-step emperor.

Darren howled in desperation.

In an instant, he transformed himself into a dragon and used his Shura Force to retreat.

He was fortunate that the true ice intent had only grazed him. This gave him ample time to climb to the peak of the half-step emperor level before it could have frozen him entirely.

Sensing Darren's horrifying aura, the Water Spirit shrieked in fear.

She then turned into a blue shadow, camouflaging herself in the icy plain.

With that, she was able to escape.

Darren spread out his spiritual sense to search for traces of the Water Spirit. This was his only chance to defeat her because the next time they met, the Water Spirit would surely take extra precautions, making her harder to kill.

He knew he had limited time left before his cultivation level would go back to normal. He couldn't waste any more time.

He flew through the air as fast he could.

The ice plain was rushing below him like a blur, and with all his strength, he began smashing through it.

He didn't stop until the entire plain was destroyed. And yet, there were still no signs of the Water Spirit. The only note-worthy thing he discovered was a black ice that wouldn't break even when he used his strength on it.

He decided to come closer without hesitation.

"I don't have any plans on killing you, so you can come out now. Just let me pass and I'll leave you alone," Darren called out.

Beneath the black ice's surface, a soft blue light glowed. Then she spoke. "This is the Absolutely Cold Pool. You can't break it even if your power has increased. No one can get me from here. And, if I'm not sensing it wrong, your strength won't last long, right?"

After recovering from her initial panic, the Water Spirit was able to think clearly now.

Upon hearing this, Darren knew that his secret was finally revealed. If he couldn't get to her now, then he would get into deep trouble.

He began banging against the black ice with all his might.

He was going all out because this was now or never.

With each hit, the world shook. Ice rained down as the entire area threatened to collapse under the strain. But the black ice didn't show any signs of breaking. It remained intact.

Suddenly, Darren heard a whimper.

That soft cry of pain gave him hope, renewing his vigor.

It appeared that his power could pass through the black ice even though he couldn't break it directly. The impact was enough to rattle the Water Spirit who was hiding inside it.

"If you don't come out, I'll have to shock you to death," Darren roared, raining down more attacks on the black ice.

Sometime later, his powers dwindled back to normal.

At that moment, a blue icy fog hissed out of the black ice and it slowly formed into a shape of a girl.

The girl was extremely beautiful despite the blood running at the corner of her mouth. Her pale skin shone like moonlight.

"I can see that you're hurt badly," Darren said calmly.

His demeanor had enraged the Water Spirit. After all, she was beyond wounded. She had almost died in the hands of this human. She was lucky that his unnatural strength subsided before it could even finish the job.

"I wished you no harm, human, but you also cannot blame me for my actions because you're obviously seeking death. Now, you have lost your strength. Let me see how you can resist my true ice intent." The Water Spirit stared hard at him.

"Really? Have I forgotten to tell you that even without the holy emperor's power, I could kill a senior holy warrior? Well, now that you're here, let us see who attacks faster."

In a blink of an eye, Darren disappeared from his spot.
