Chapter 184: The Arena of Life and Death—Bibi Dong and Others Are Worried!
In the battle just now, Hu Bai had already used the two defensive soul skills of Snow Empress and Ice Empress. Otherwise, how could he, a human, fight a Soul Beast for so long and only suffer an injury to his left shoulder?
Hu Bai's body was instantly covered by a layer of crystalline ice armor, with snowflake-shaped patterns flowing on its surface. This was the skill of the Snow Empress's torso Soul Bone—the Snow Soul Cold Heart Armor.
Outside the ice crystal armor, another layer of light blue ice covered it, full of sharp protrusions. This was the Ice Empress's soul ring skill—Ice Empress Possession.
Two great defensive soul skills protected his body!
Under the double defense enhancement, Hu Bai's defense instantly increased several times.
When the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's sharp claws landed on him again, there was a crisp "clang" sound—the claws were repelled, leaving only a shallow claw mark on the ice layer.
After once again dodging the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's claw strike, Hu Bai distanced himself from it.
"Now!"
Hu Bai seized the moment when the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's old strength was exhausted and its new strength had not yet emerged, opening his left hand to both sides.
The Domains of Snow Empress and Ice Empress unfolded simultaneously. The white ice and snow Domain and the azure extreme ice Domain merged in the air, forming a composite Domain covering a fifty-meter radius—the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain!
The temperature within the Domain plummeted, and the moisture in the air instantly condensed into ice crystals, causing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's movements to noticeably slow down.
The ground beneath its feet froze, and the ice layer spread upward along its limbs, quickly covering its body.
When the ice spread to its neck, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's movements were completely frozen. Its entire body was encased in a huge block of ice, with only a pair of eyes full of anger and unwillingness exposed.
"It's over."
Hu Bai flipped his right hand, and the Holy Radiance Sun Sword disappeared, replaced by a long halberd.
The halberd was composed of deep blue ice crystals; the blade was sharp, and the end had wave-like patterns—the Divine Artifact of Water, the Azure Sea Wave-Breaking Halberd!
Hu Bai gripped the halberd handle, his internal soul power perfectly fused with the power of the Snow Empress.
He raised the long halberd above his head, and the halberd's body erupted with dazzling blue light, as the surrounding ice and snow Domain energy frantically converged toward the halberd tip.
"Emperor Sword Ice Extreme Unrivaled!"
Hu Bai thrust the Azure Sea Wave-Breaking Halberd forward fiercely, and a blue Sword Qi with a diameter of three meters shot out from the halberd tip, carrying an extreme chill, instantly piercing through the ice block that had frozen the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
The ice shattered, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's body was pierced by the Sword Qi. A huge wound appeared on its chest, and black blood mixed with shattered ice splattered out.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger let out a mournful shriek, its body falling backward and heavily crashing to the ground. Its aura rapidly weakened.
At the wound on its chest, blue cold Qi continuously eroded its internal organs, making it extremely difficult for it to move.
Just as Hu Bai thought the battle was over, a strong black light suddenly erupted from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes.
It used its last bit of strength, opened its mouth, and a black vortex formed in the air. The vortex rapidly expanded, creating a powerful suction force. The ground beneath Hu Bai's feet began to crack, and his body flew uncontrollably toward the vortex.
"Oh no, it's the Life and Death Arena!"
Hu Bai inwardly thought it was bad. This Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was already like a candle in the wind, yet it still could unleash this move!
With this immense suction, Hu Bai simply couldn't resist. He and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger were both pulled into the vortex.
Snow Empress formed hand seals, and her ice and snow Domain erupted with full power, attempting to freeze the black vortex. However, she found that the Domain's energy was devoured as soon as it touched the vortex.
"It's useless. This is a spatial Soul Skill—we can't interfere," Hu Bai's voice echoed in the Spiritual Sea.
Once this Life and Death Arena opened, they could not resist. This ability was comparable to a god!
But being sucked in didn't mean it was a dead end. The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger now only had one last breath left.
Even if he was pulled into the Life and Death Arena, so what?
As long as he broke the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's Evil God Protection at the first opportunity and delivered the final blow!
Moreover, although this Life and Death Arena contained the power of time that could make people return to their youth, this required the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger to continuously inject Evil God power into it to trigger this effect.
And now, did the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger still have the ability to revert his age to before six years old?
That's not certain!
Hu Bai and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger were both completely pulled into the vortex, which then disappeared.
Just then, Bibi Dong arrived with Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and others. Seeing the scene in the arena, everyone stopped in their tracks.
Bibi Dong then scanned the traces of the battle around and finally stopped at the location where the vortex disappeared, her brows tightly furrowed: "What happened? Where's Xiao Bai?"
Yue Guan stepped forward, carefully observing the black energy remaining on the ground: "These are the residual energies of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and there are also traces of spatial fluctuations. It seems Hu Bai was dragged into another dimension by its Soul Skill."
Gui Mei's voice carried a hint of solemnity: "That beast is already severely wounded, but being able to activate the Life and Death Arena in this state indicates that its strength is deeper than we imagined. Xiao Bai entering that mysterious space might be dangerous."
Bibi Dong raised her hand, and purplish-black soul power condensed in her palm: "Everyone, be on guard and hold this place. I'll try to analyze the spatial fluctuations and see if I can open a passage!"
A hint of worry flashed in her eyes, and her aura became unusually cold: "If Xiao Bai gets into trouble, even if that beast dies, I will make sure its Soul Flies Away and Spirit Scatters!"
"Rakshasa God, can you open this mysterious alternate dimension?" Bibi Dong communicated with the Rakshasa God's remnant soul.
The Rakshasa God shook her head and said, "This is not my strong suit. At this point, all you can do is wait for Hu Bai to come out."
"Inside this mysterious space should be the so-called Life and Death Arena. Once inside this space, only one of Hu Bai and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger can survive."
"However, you don't need to worry too much. That beast only has one breath left, and although Hu Bai's soul power consumption is huge, fortunately, he doesn't have too many injuries, and he is accompanied by three Fierce Beasts. Among them, except for that big worm, the other two are much stronger than this Evil Tiger!"
Tianmeng Iceworm: 666.
Hu Liena and Shui Bing'er both looked a little pale, very worried.
"Big Brother, do you think Second Brother will be okay?" Hu Liena was so anxious that tears were about to fall.
She couldn't imagine what she would do if something happened to Hu Bai.
Shui Bing'er's small hand clutched Qingluan Douluo's sleeve, her fingers turning white. Her eyes fixed on the spot where Hu Bai disappeared, silently praying in her heart: "Brother Bai, you must be safe. Bing'er still wants to cultivate with you."
"You helped Bing'er solve the Martial Soul problem and even gave Bing'er two such good teachers. Bing'er hasn't had time to repay you yet. You must be safe."
