Chapter 689: 376 Chapter The End of the Great War_2 Chapter 689: 376 Chapter The End of the Great War_2 Especially Daoist Hu Yuan, who had almost depleted ninety percent of his spiritual power, and consumable treasures like the Second Order Attack Talisman were completely exhausted.
Adding to his injuries, the strength he could exert now, I’m afraid, was less than half of his peak level.
Knowing this, facing the divine skill attack of the Cold Ice Crocodile, he clearly didn’t have much confidence he could survive.
Seeing the ice pillar getting closer and closer, fully aware of the severity of the Cold Ice Crocodile’s ice pillar, Hu Yuan’s already pale face instantly turned extrely grim.
“Sigh…”
Hu Yuan let out a sigh, his condition was terribly poor at the mont; he could only try to delay as much as possible, waiting for Lin Tianming to join the fight which would herald their victory.
With this realization, Hu Yuan forcibly circulated most of his remaining spiritual power, pouring it all into the defense artifact in his hand, preparing for one final gamble.
...
However, as to whether he could block the ice pillar and survive this terrifying attack, he truly wasn’t certain.
“Rumble…”
The light beam traveled swiftly, and in the blink of an eye, it had already descended in front of Hu Yuan.
Just then, the sound of tearing through the air could be heard, followed by the appearance of Lin Tianming blocking in front of him.
Seeing the arrival, who was none other than the eagerly awaited Lin Tianming, Hu Yuan’s expression instantly turned to joy.
At that mont, Lin Tianming, gripping the Green Scale Shield in one hand and after infusing it with a vast amount of spiritual power, transford it into a large shield firmly guarding in front of them both.
As the saying goes, in the nick of ti, the ice pillars all crashed against the shield.
“Bang bang bang…”
A series of explosive sounds continued to rise, and huge waves churned across the surface of the lake.
At this ti, Lin Tianming’s face was flushed red, as he held the Green Scale Shield steady.
He was well aware that the strength behind him, belonging to Hu Yuan, was limited. If he dodged, given Hu Yuan’s current state, it was highly likely that Hu Yuan would perish there.
Although should Hu Yuan die, he could alone claim the three Creation Fruits and the Creation Fruit Tree and wouldn’t need to bear the risk of potential exposure.
But after spending several years together, he had found that Hu Yuan was a man of loyalty and righteousness, who had never wronged him or the Lin Family, and had even helped him quite a bit.
Such broad-minded, grateful loose cultivators were rare in today’s Cultivation World.
Driven by the interest in a Creation Fruit, Lin Tianming, by nature, didn’t want to commit such despicable acts of kicking a man when he was down.
Consequently, he exerted his spiritual power to the fullest, standing steadfastly in front of Hu Yuan, refusing to budge an inch.
At this mont, his silhouette and actions were etched into Hu Yuan’s vision.
He was also keenly aware that he and Lin Tianming were not related by blood or friendship; their partnership was rely a cooperative relationship.
Being alone without any clan or power behind him, Lin Tianming could have simply let him fend for himself, a choice that would have brought greater benefits without risk.
Yet, in the face of such interests, Lin Tianming chose not to do so!
This act moved Hu Yuan intensely, filling him with admiration and gratitude.
Ti slowly passed by.
Who knew how long it had been when the explosive sounds abruptly ceased.
Looking now, Lin Tianming and Hu Yuan had been flung into the air by the powerful recoil force.
Floating midair, Lin Tianming’s complexion was pale as snow, his blood churning inside. A trickle of fresh blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Although the Cold Ice Crocodile’s divine skill, the ice pillar, was terrifyingly powerful, at this mont, its strength was clearly not as formidable as it had been at its peak.
Being a dual cultivator of body and law, he hadn’t expended much in the previous battle, and his strength was almost unaffected.
Therefore, after taking on the entire ice pillar attack, he had suffered only so internal injuries, and his overall consumption was not significant.
As for the Green Scale Shield used to deflect the attack, it had only so cracks; it could easily be restored to its original state with so re-enchantnts from Lin Shilu.
Once both had regained control of their postures, Hu Yuan coughed up blood in large mouthfuls, a flush of red passing over his pale face.
At that mont, he looked at Lin Tianming’s silhouette, with an expression of joy erging.
“Cough cough…”
Hu Yuan coughed and then bowed in thanks, saying, “Lin, I’m indebted to you for arriving just in ti. Otherwise, my life would surely have been lost here!”
Hearing these words, Lin Tianming waved his hand in response.
“You’re overstating it, Daoist Hu. During this grand battle, the ti you bought was more than sufficient,” Lin Tianming replied.
“I also underestimated the strength of these two Cold Ice Crocodiles; the battle was rather lengthy, which is why I arrived a bit late,”
“Heh… However, despite that, there were no mishaps, which is indeed cause for celebration!”
Hearing Lin Tianming’s explanation, Hu Yuan nodded in agreent, fully endorsing his statent.
After this ferocious battle, everyone, including himself, had indeed underestimated the strength of the two Cold Ice Crocodiles.
While Lin Tianming’s strength was superior to his, it was still not sothing that could be done quickly to kill a Cold Ice Crocodile.
Thus, it was clear that Lin Tianming had exerted his full strength to arrive in ti.
Understanding this, Hu Yuan expressed his gratitude, “Lin has made every possible effort, fortunately, the outco is satisfactory!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming also nodded and then addressed Hu Yuan.
“Daoist Hu, there is only this injured Cold Ice Crocodile left; let’s join forces to finish it quickly and avoid prolonged troubles!”
“Good, Lin can make your move, I will assist you from the side!”
Having responded, Hu Yuan’s Attack Talisman flashed with Spiritual Light, and he imdiately rushed towards the location of the Cold Ice Crocodile.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming followed suit, quickly reaching the vicinity of the Cold Ice Crocodile.
At this mont, the Cold Ice Crocodile was in the middle of the lake, its huge head sticking out as it glared at Lin Tianming and Hu Yuan, a mix of shock and rage in its deanor.
The Cold Ice Crocodile had witnessed Lin Tianming’s strength and the process of killing its companion.
Seeing its comrade killed and Lin Tianming now free to target it, the Cold Ice Crocodile was sowhat panicked.
But even more so, it was enraged.
At that mont, it wanted to eliminate these two humans right there and avenge its companion.
It roared furiously and then launched an attack.
In the blink of an eye, the Cold Ice Crocodile’s huge tail swept towards the heads of Lin Tianming and Hu Yuan without regard for its own wounds.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming let out a cold laugh; if the Cold Ice Crocodile had been at its peak strength, he might have had so reservations.
However, it had been wounded by Hu Yuan, its abilities reduced by twenty to thirty percent, so with its weakened Divine Skills, it posed no significant threat.
With this understanding, Lin Tianming perford a spell, and his Tiangang Sword flashed with silver light, followed by the release of Tiangang Sword Qi Seventh Sword, piercing towards the sweeping tail.
anwhile, Hu Yuan unleashed several attacks from different directions towards the Cold Ice Crocodile.
His Spiritual Power was greatly depleted; although his attacks were weak, they were enough to distract the Cold Ice Crocodile.
This was just the assault from the two n; the Bloodthirsty Jiao and the Silver-Eyed Spirit Fox that accompanied Lin Tianming also launched their attacks from various angles.
In an instant, the Cold Ice Crocodile found itself besieged from all sides, utterly overwheld.
Facing the onslaught of two n and two beasts, the Cold Ice Crocodile finally felt imnse pressure.
However, it understood that Lin Tianming was the greatest threat since he had just killed its companion, and his attack was the most formidable.
Therefore, after a mont’s hesitation, the Cold Ice Crocodile locked its sights on Lin Tianming as its target.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!” A series of explosions sounded.
The Cold Ice Crocodile twisted its body to avoid the attacks from Hu Yuan and the Bloodthirsty Jiao, while the Tiangang Sword collided head-on with its tail, the force repelling the sword.
However, the damaging power of the Tiangang Sword was imnse, almost severing its tail in one strike.
In addition, the red mist spat out by the Silver-Eyed Spirit Fox enveloped half of its body, the corrosive nature of it igniting so of its flesh.
“Sizzling…”
A foul odor spread as the Cold Ice Crocodile howled in pain, its already injured body thrashing violently.
With the combined strike of the two n and two beasts, the Cold Ice Crocodile was no match.
Especially Lin Tianming’s strike, which nearly severed its tail, exacerbating its wounds even further.
If the assault were to continue this way, perhaps in a few rounds of attacks, the Cold Ice Crocodile would inevitably be besieged to death.
But even so, it had no room for choice.
Lin Tianming had already instructed the Bloodthirsty Jiao and the Silver-Eyed Spirit Fox, including keeping Hu Yuan vigilant, to watch every move of the Cold Ice Crocodile, to prevent its escape.
In such a situation, it could be said that the Cold Ice Crocodile was trapped, with no escape to the heavens above or the earth below.
