Things had already developed to a point where there was no retreat. Chu Yueli did not retreat. She suppressed the injuries on her body and activated the palace-suppressing divine skill of the Heavenly Snow Palace, the Ice Phoenix's Ode to the World Scripture.

Her aura had reached its peak. An icy chill from the nine serenities land lingered around him. With him as the center, it spread wildly in all directions.

In just a short moment, the entire world seemed to have turned into an ice cellar. Everyone had to use their cultivation techniques to resist this bone-chilling coldness.

"Hiss, this is the cultivation technique of the Heavenly Snow Palace. It's actually so terrifying!"

"I feel like my blood is about to freeze. As expected of the foundation of a large sect. It's so powerful."

"I wonder if Chu Yueli can get rid of Shi Shan's demonic hands. I don't want to see a delicate flower being destroyed just like that."

"Keep your voice down. Do you want to die? If Shi Shan hears you, he'll kill you with one finger."

Everyone felt the tense atmosphere at the scene. They were all affected by the rhythm, and their hearts pounded.

This cold air was extremely powerful, and they had no choice but to use all the strength in their bodies to resist it. However, it was obvious that it had no effect on Shi Shan at all.

Just a meter or so away from him, it disappeared into nothingness, as if it had never appeared in the first place.

Chu Yueli noticed this situation, and her eyes were filled with deep worry. Their cultivation techniques had been passed down from the ancient times, and they had gone through countless modifications and improvements. Their power was no longer on the same level.

She did not expect that they would be so weak in front of Shi Shan.

"Is that all you've got? I'm not afraid to tell you that I used 30% of my strength just now. I'm going to be serious now."

Shi Shan's words caused a thousand ripples.

Everyone was shocked. He only used 30% of his strength and he was already so powerful.

If a true Emperor was here, killing a quasi-emperor would be as easy as stepping on an ant.

Never mind a peak quasi-emperor, even a half-step Emperor would not be able to resist.

Hearing this, even Chu Yueli's gaze changed. She had a clear idea of what a half-step Emperor was like. Just 30% of his strength was enough to block a peak quasi-emperor's attack. It was indeed terrifying.

Moreover, this was before he used the laws of heaven and earth. One had to know that Tribulation Transcending experts were able to become one with heaven and comprehend the Heavenly Dao.

Quasi-emperors were able to control the general situation of heaven and earth and form their own unique domain, instantly deciding the life and death of a person.

Heaven in a single thought, and hell in a single thought. This perfectly explained how terrifying quasi-emperors were.

However, if one reached the level of an Emperor, even a half-step Emperor would be able to grasp a trace of the power of laws. It was not something that a peak quasi-emperor martial artist could compare to.

The laws of heaven and earth had fifty Great Daos and forty-nine Heavenly Daos.

Each of the three thousand Great Daos contained an extremely powerful force that could destroy the heaven and earth.

As the saying went, those below the level of an Emperor were all ants. It was not just talk.

Chu Yueli had no option. She became serious.

Then, while everyone was watching, Shi Shan raised an arm. There was not the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy or a powerful aura, but it was pressuring everyone to kneel and submit.

This was the ability to activate the laws of heaven and earth. It was so terrifying.

Chu Yueli faced this aura head-on. The pressure she felt was the strongest. She felt an invisible energy sealing the surrounding space.

Even the spiritual energy in her body began to slow down at this moment.

She forcefully suppressed the throbbing in her body. The spiritual energy in her body was roaring. Her palm drew an illusory shadow in the air. The spiritual energy in the world instantly surged over, and streaks of white mist that could be seen by the naked eye flashed.

"All things fall from the ice!"

With this light shout, the surrounding temperature rapidly dropped. The Earth, ancient trees, and mountains were all frozen, as if they had become a world of ice sculptures.

This cold air was too terrifying.

The surrounding crowd felt this intense cold air, and they only felt that the spiritual energy in their bodies was about to freeze.

In their shock, they were pushed back by about 30 miles, and could still clearly feel this oppressive cold.

"Petty tricks!"

Seeing this, Shi Shan waved his hand and shot out a ray of light. It seemed to contain a mysterious power within.

The two forces instantly collided, causing a huge explosive force. It was as if they were smashing apart one by one, blowing up large swaths of ancient trees and destroying distant mountain peaks. A shocking abyss appeared in front of everyone.

One after another, ferocious cracks spread out into the distance, shocking everyone so much that their mouths were wide open.

However...

Things were not over yet.

Shi Shan's attack was too powerful. After wiping out Chu Yueli's cold qi, its momentum did not decrease, and it continued to collide with its target.

At this moment, Chu Yueli was in the middle of recovering her strength. Facing the attack, she no longer had the strength to continue fighting.

She was about to die.

Lu Yanqi's face turned pale. Even if she wanted to go up, it was too late. She could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.

Ning Manman also frowned. Although she had many tricks up her sleeve, the power of a half-step Emperor was not something she could contend with.

It would be great if her master was here.

Right at this moment, Ning Manman seemed to have thought of something.

She took out a purple talisman from her interspatial ring. This was something her master had given her during her training to prevent any accidents from happening.

This talisman could block a strike from a peak-stage quasi-emperor. Should she give it a try!?

In this situation, there was no better way.

As she spoke, she threw out the talisman in her hand.

A streak of light flashed past and collided with Shi Shan's light, instantly annihilating him.

At this moment, everyone was stunned.

Chu Yueli was in disbelief.

Lu Yanqi's jaw dropped in shock.

Everyone was also stunned at this moment.

This attack was about to kill Chu Yueli. People were still mourning the loss of this beauty in advance.

No one expected that in the next moment, there would be a shocking reversal.

And the one who was most shocked was still Shi Shan. He had absolute confidence in his own attack. A moment ago, he was still feeling smug, but then he was slapped in the face.

The atmosphere became strangely quiet.
