听了主仆二人的言语，竟仿佛将自己当成了砖板上的鱼，可以任意宰割，九头老祖自然心中大怒。做为离合期妖族，他什么时候受过这等侮辱。不过怒归怒，在见识过月儿的神通手段之后，他也不敢有分毫大意的。袖袍一拂，磅礴的妖力汹涌而出。
The words of the master and servant duo seemed to treat him as a fish on a chopping board, subject to any slaughter. The Nine-Headed Elder Patriarch naturally felt furious at this. As an entity from the Separation and Union Realm, when had he ever endured such humiliation? However, despite his anger, after witnessing Little Moon's abilities, he dared not be careless.
zài jiàn le jiǔ tiān xuán zūn de xià chǎng yǐ hòu ， zhè lǎo jiā huǒ ， hěn cōng míng de méi yǒu qù diào dòng tiān dì yuán qì 。 guǒ rán ， tǐ nèi de fǎ lì kě yǐ rèn yì qū shǐ ， zhè ràng tā dà sōng le yì kǒu qì 。
在见了九天玄尊的下场以后，这老家伙，很聪明的没有去调动天地元气。果然，体内的法力可以任意驱使，这让他大松了一口气。
With a flick of his sleeves,磅礴的妖力汹涌而出。
gē bēng gē bēng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， jiǔ tóu lǎo zǔ de yī fú bèi chěng pò ， shēn xíng gèng shì bào zhǎng qǐ lái le 。 huà wèi le yī jiǔ tóu dà shé 。
咯嘣咯嘣的声音传入耳朵，九头老祖的衣服被骋破，身形更是暴涨起来了。化为了一九头大蛇。
Having seen the fate of the Nine Heavens Profound Sovereign, this old fellow wisely refrained from invoking天地元气. Indeed, the power within his body could be freely controlled, which greatly relieved him.
shēn cháng guò bǎi zhàng ， wū hēi yóu liàng ， yōng piàn shǎn shuò zhe jīng guāng ， suī shuō shì shé ， dàn kàn nà qì shì ， biàn shì jiāo lóng yǔ tā xiāng bǐ ， yě fǎng fú shì lóu yǐ 。 wǔ jiē yāo zú ， zhè cái shì tā de zhēn miàn mù 。
身长过百丈，乌黑油亮，鳙片闪烁着精光，虽说是蛇，但看那气势，便是蛟龙与他相比，也仿佛是蝼蚁。五阶妖族，这才是他的真面目。
Clicks and pops filled his ears as his clothes were torn apart by the force, his form swelling to become a massive nine-headed snake.
ér yāo dān gāo xuán zài jiǔ kē tóu lú de shàng kōng ， guāng máng shǎn shuò ， yǐn yǐn yǒu yī gǔ shè rén de qì shì chū 。 zhào 。！
而妖丹高悬在九颗头颅的上空，光芒闪烁，隐隐有一股摄人的气势出。召。！
Over a hundred feet long, its body was dark and glossy, with scales shimmering with light. Though it was a snake, its imposing presence made even dragons seem like ants in comparison. A fifth-stage妖族, this was his true form.
nà shé wěi ba yī shuǎi ， dà kǒu zhāng kāi ， pēn chū huáng tǒng bān cū de jiǔ dào guāng zhù ， suí hòu yī zhèn shǎn shuò ， měi dào guāng zhù zài zhōng tú de shí hòu jìng fēn jiě kāi le 。
那蛇尾巴一甩，大口张开，喷出黄桶般粗的九道光柱，随后一阵闪烁，每道光柱在中途的时候竟分解开了。
A large, luminous ball hung above the nine heads, casting an ominous aura. Summon!
huà wèi le tiáo xiǎo shé 。
化为了条小蛇。
With a flick of its tail and a wide opening of its mouth, it spat out nine light columns as thick as buckets. These columns suddenly split into smaller snakes mid-air.
zhǎng bù guò chǐ xǔ ， dàn shù liàng què jīng rén yǐ jí ， mì mì má má ， zú yǒu shù wàn tiáo zhī duō 。
长不过尺许，但数量却惊人以极，密密麻麻，足有数万条之多。
Each snake was no more than a foot long but numbered in the tens of thousands, densely packed together.
ér dà shé de qì shì ， míng xiǎn wěi mǐ le xià qù ， xiǎn rán cǐ mì shù ， bìng bú shì qīng ér yì jǔ jiù kě shī zhǎn de 。“ hēng d
而大蛇的气势，明显萎靡了下去，显然此秘术，并不是轻而易举就可施展的。“哼d
The massive snake's presence visibly weakened, indicating that this secret technique wasn't easily performed. Hmph!
yuè ér bìng bù zài yì ， jǐn guǎn cóng běn xìng lái shuō ， xiǎo yā tou hái yǒu xiē róu ruò ， dàn bù zhī wèi hé ， bèi nà céng yín máng bāo guǒ ， fǎng fú tiān dì jiān de yī qiè ， dōu kě yǐ bù fàng zài yǎn zhōng 。
月儿并不在意，尽管从本性来说，小丫头还有些柔弱，但不知为何，被那层银芒包裹，仿佛天地间的一切，都可以不放在眼中。
Little Moon paid no mind to it; despite being somewhat weak by nature, she seemed unbothered under the silver glow. The Elder Patriarch of Luo Family was correct—through spirit force induction, Little Moon indeed obtained some of her past life's power, but unlike Princess New Moon, this power was one-time and wouldn't affect her personality or strength. Unfortunately, using it reduced its availability.
luó jiā lǎo zǔ suǒ liào méi cuò ， tōng guò líng lì yòu tǐ ， yuè ér què shí dé dào le qián shì suǒ liú xià lái de xiē xǔ lì liàng ， dàn yǔ xīn yuè gōng zhǔ de qíng kuàng bù tóng ， zhè xiē lì liàng shì yí cì xìng de ， bìng bú huì duì yuè ér de xìng gé yǔ shí lì yǒu hé yǐng xiǎng ， kě xī yòng yì diǎn yě jiù shǎo yì diǎn le 。 suǒ yǐ yuè ér kàn shàng qù shì níng dān qī ， jiǔ tiān xuán zūn què shí fēn wō nāng de sǐ zài le tā de shǒu lǐ 。 miàn duì nà wàn qiān mó shé ， yuè ér de zuǐ jiǎo lù chū yī sī jī cháo zhī sè ， zuǒ shǒu tái qǐ ， huǎn huǎn xiàng qián diǎn qù 。“ pò ！”
罗家老祖所料没错，通过灵力诱体，月儿确实得到了前世所留下来的些许力量，但与新月公主的情况不同，这些力量是一次性的，并不会对月儿的性格与实力有何影响，可惜用一点也就少一点了。所以月儿看上去是凝丹期，九天玄尊却十分窝囊的死在了她的手里。面对那万千魔蛇，月儿的嘴角露出一丝讥嘲之色，左手抬起，缓缓向前点去。“破！”
Thus, while Little Moon appeared to be in the Condensation Core Stage, the Nine Heavens Profound Sovereign met a humiliating defeat at her hands. With a sneer, she raised her left hand and pointed forward. "Break!"
jiē chún huī qǐ ， cóng bèi chǐ lǐ jǐn jǐn tǔ chū zhè me yí gè zì ， hū de yī xià ， zhōu wéi de tiān xiàng jìng zhòu rán shēng gǎi biàn le ， yuán běn yì xiàng xiāo shī yǐ hòu ， yǐ shì qíng kōng wàn lǐ ， rán ér cǐ shí cǐ kè ， què guǐ yì de yīn chén xià qù 。
接唇徽启，从贝齿里仅仅吐出这么一个字，呼的一下，周围的天象竟骤然生改变了，原本异象消失以后，已是晴空万里，然而此时此刻，却诡异的阴沉下去。
Her lips slightly parted as she uttered a single word: "Break!" The surrounding sky suddenly changed; after the strange phenomena disappeared, it had been clear skies, but now, it turned strangely gloomy.
wū yún zhòu qǐ ， é máo bān de dà xuě cóng tiān kōng zhōng piāo luò 。
乌云皱起，鹅毛般的大雪从天空中飘落。
Dark clouds gathered, and snowflakes like goose feathers began to fall from the sky.
yī dào lán guāng shǎn guò ， nà shǔ yǐ wàn jì de mó shé bèi bīng fēng 。
一道蓝光闪过，那数以万计的魔蛇被冰封。
A blue light flashed, freezing countless魔snakes in ice.
suǒ yǒu rén kàn dé dāi zhù ， zhè shì shén me shén tōng ？
所有人看得呆住，这是什么神通？
Everyone was stunned. What kind of power was this?
lí hé qī xiū shì kě yǐ chū bù qū shǐ tiān dì yuán qì ， dàn bì xū yǔ běn shēn de gōng fǎ xiàng pèi hé ， jiù ná tiān yá hǎi gé de tài shàng zhǎng lǎo lái shuō ， mèng rú yān xiū liàn de piāo yún luò xuě jué ， nǎi shì shuǐ shǔ xìng de dǐng jiē gōng fǎ ， kě yǐ qū shǐ shuǐ yuán qì ， zài dà hǎi huò zhě yǒu hú pō de dì fāng gèng xiǎn wēi lì 。 dàn wǔ xíng zhōng de qí tā yuán qì ， mèng rú yān zé bù kě néng shè jí 。
离合期修士可以初步驱使天地元气，但必须与本身的功法相配合，就拿天涯海阁的太上长老来说，梦如嫣修炼的飘云落雪诀，乃是水属性的顶阶功法，可以驱使水元气，在大海或者有湖泊的地方更显威力。但五行中的其他元气，梦如嫣则不可能涉及。
Separation and Union Realm cultivators could initially manipulate天地元气, but only with their own cultivation techniques. For example, Elder Grandmaster of Tiansha Hailou Temple, Dream Ruyan, practiced the Drifting Cloud Snowfall Technique, a top-tier water attribute technique that could control water元气, especially in seas or lakes. However, she couldn't manipulate other elements.
ér yuè ér gāng gāng yù shǒu diǎn chū ， yǐn yǐn yǒu yín máng shǎn guò ， suí hòu mó shé cái bèi bīng fēng ， nà yín máng de shǔ xìng shì wú ， bù shǔ jīn mù shuǐ huǒ tǔ ， fǎng fú tiào chū le wǔ xíng zhī zhōng ， nán dào nà shì chuán shuō zhōng de xiān lì me ？
而月儿刚刚玉手点出，隐隐有银芒闪过，随后魔蛇才被冰封，那银芒的属性是无，不属金木水火土，仿佛跳出了五行之中，难道那是传说中的仙力么？
When Little Moon pointed her hand, a faint silver glow appeared before freezing the魔snakes. The silver glow was of an undefined nature—neither earth, wood, fire, water, nor metal. It seemed to transcend the Five Elements. Could it be that this was legendary divine power?
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ， dà shé de biǎo qíng yī xià zi biàn dé nán kàn yǐ jí ， tā cāi dé méi cuò ， suī rán ā xiū luó wáng liú xià lái de lì liàng ， yǔ quán shèng shí xiāng bǐ ， bù guò jiǔ niú yì máo ér yǐ ， dàn jiù shǔ xìng lái shuō ， què shí shì xiān lì 。 bù zài wǔ xíng ， dàn wǔ xíng què kě rèn yì qū shǐ 。” yuè ér ， bú yào dān gē ， zhàn jué 。
想到这里，大蛇的表情一下子变得难看以极，他猜得没错，虽然阿修罗王留下来的力量，与全盛时相比，不过九牛一毛而已，但就属性来说，确实是仙力。不在五行，但五行却可任意驱使。”月儿，不要耽搁，战决。
The large snake's expression turned extremely ugly; he guessed right. Although the power left by the Deva King was only a fraction of its former glory, its nature was indeed divine, not bound by the Five Elements but able to control them.
lín xuān suī rán dòng tán bù dé ， dàn yǎn lì yī jiù hái zài de ， lùn chéng fǔ ， tā yě bù bǐ luó jiā lǎo zǔ xùn sè ， xiǎo yā tou suī dà zhàn shàng fēng ， dàn qì shì què zài míng xiǎn jiǎn ruò ， shēn tǐ zhōu wéi de yín huī yuè lái yuè àn le ， lín xuān yǐn yǐn jué de bù tuǒ ， suī rán jù tǐ qíng kuàng rú hé ， méi yǒu shí jiān duō zuò sī suǒ ， dàn zhàn jué zǒng shì méi cuò 。“ ó ！” yuè ér yǒu xiē yí huò ， bù guò shào yé de huà zǒng shì yào tīng de ， shǒu zhōng fǎ jué biàn huàn ， jiù zhǔn bèi shī zhǎn bié de shā shǒu 。
林轩虽然动弹不得，但眼力依旧还在的，论城府，他也不比罗家老祖逊色，小丫头虽大战上风，但气势却在明显减弱，身体周围的银辉越来越暗了，林轩隐隐觉得不妥，虽然具体情况如何，没有时间多做思索，但战决总是没错。“哦！”月儿有些疑惑，不过少爷的话总是要听的，手中法诀变幻，就准备施展别的杀手。
"Little Moon, don't delay, fight!"
ér luó jiā lǎo zǔ yǎn zhōng jīng máng shǎn guò ， yě xiàng hòu bèi zi zhí men chuán yīn le ：“ dà jiā jiāng là wán yǎo pò ， fú xià wàn nián líng rǔ ， yī huì er lǎo fū pīn mìng jiāng cǐ nǚ dǎng zhù ， nǐ men jǐn kě néng de gǎn kuài táo zǒu 。“ duō xiè lǎo zǔ ！”
而罗家老祖眼中精芒闪过，也像后辈子侄们传音了：“大家将蜡丸咬破，服下万年灵乳，一会儿老夫拼命将此女挡住，你们尽可能的赶快逃走。“多谢老祖！”
Although Lin Xuan couldn't move, his eyesight remained sharp. In terms of depth, he wasn’t inferior to the Elder Patriarch of Luo Family. Although Little Moon was in an advantageous position, her气势was weakening, and the silver glow around her body grew darker. Lin Xuan sensed something amiss but didn’t have time to think further; a fight decision was always right.
zhòng xiū shì yī shēng dà hē ， cǐ shí cǐ s1， yě méi bì yào jì xù yǐn mán le ， jiāng tǐ nèi de là wán nòng pò ， yī dī hēi sè de yè tǐ chū xiàn le 。“ zhè shì shén me ？”
众修士一声大喝，此时此s1，也没必要继续隐瞒了，将体内的蜡丸弄破，一滴黑色的液体出现了。“这是什么？”
"Oh!" Little Moon was puzzled but obeyed her lord’s words. She changed her hand seals and prepared to unleash another killer technique.
luó zǐ shū yī è ， zuò wèi yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， jiàn shí zì rán pǒ wèi guǎng bó ， wàn nián líng rǔ dāng rán méi yǒu jiàn guò ， dàn shū jí shàng de miáo shù què qīng qīng chǔ chǔ 。 yīng gāi shì rǔ bái sè ， yùn shě de yǒu jīng rén de líng lì zài lǐ tou 。
罗紫梳一愕，做为元婴期修仙者，见识自然颇为广博，万年灵乳当然没有见过，但书籍上的描述却清清楚楚。应该是乳白色，蕴舍得有惊人的灵力在里头。
The Elder Patriarch of Luo Family also transmitted a message to his descendants: "Everyone break the wax pills, take in the ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk. I’ll try my best to block this girl; you should escape as quickly as possible."
kě là wán róng huà hòu de yè tǐ ， bù jǐn qī hēi rú mò ， hái yǒu yī gǔ ràng rén bù shū fú de qì xī liú lù 。“ nán dào shuō ， lǎo zǔ zài piàn wǒ ？”
可蜡丸融化后的液体，不仅漆黑如墨，还有一股让人不舒服的气息流露。“难道说，老祖在骗我？”
"Thank you, Elder!"

罗紫梳的脑海中，这个念头如电光火石般的闪过，但她已没有机会多做思索，那液体迅的融入了她的丹田之中，然后随着灵力，在全身游走。
All cultivators shouted loudly. There was no need for further concealment. They broke their wax pills, and a black liquid appeared.
luó zǐ shū de yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī sī jīng huáng zhī sè ， dàn hěn kuài jiù bèi xuè hóng gěi dài tì le ， yī gǔ bào nüè zhī qì cóng xīn dǐ shēng qǐ ， tā yǐ shǒu niān tóu ， yuán běn qīng lì de miàn róng mǎn shì niǔ qū ， sì hū nán shòu yǐ jí 。 pū pū pū yī yī yī yī yī yī
罗紫梳的眼中闪过一丝惊惶之色，但很快就被血红给代替了，一股暴虐之气从心底升起，她以手拈头，原本清丽的面容满是扭曲，似乎难受以极。噗噗噗一一一一一一
"What is this?"
cóng tā de bèi hòu ， jìng rán zhǎng chū le rú biān fú yì bān de ròu yì ， biàn huà hái bù zhǐ yú cǐ ， zhǐ jiǎ shēn cháng ， tóng kǒng biàn chéng le zǐ sè ， luǒ lù zài wài biǎo de jī fū ， gèng guǐ yì de duō chū wú shù gǔ guài de huā wén lái le 。 nà xiē huā wén shēn ào fán fù ， kàn shàng qù dào yǔ fú zhòu pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。
从她的背后，竟然长出了如蝙蝠一般的肉翼，变化还不止于此，指甲伸长，瞳孔变成了紫色，裸露在外表的肌肤，更诡异的多出无数古怪的花纹来了。那些花纹深奥繁复，看上去倒与符咒颇有几分相似之处。
Luo Zishu was surprised. As an元婴期cultivator, her knowledge was extensive; she had never seen ten-thousand-year-old spirit milk before, but the descriptions in books were clear—white and packed with astonishing spiritual energy.
ér shēng biàn huà de zì rán bú huì jǐn yǒu luó zǐ shū ， shèng xià de qī míng luó jiā xiū shì ， bāo kuò liǎng míng wú yīng hòu qī de dà xiū xiān zhě ， biǎo qíng wú bù tòng kǔ yǐ jí ， yǒu de shèn zhì zài yuán dì dǎ qǐ gǔn lái le 。
而生变化的自然不会仅有罗紫梳，剩下的七名罗家修士，包括两名无婴后期的大修仙者，表情无不痛苦已极，有的甚至在原地打起滚来了。
However, the liquid that melted from the wax pills was pitch black like ink and emitted an uncomfortable aura. Could it be that the Elder Patriarch was deceiving her?
yī shān bèi chēng pò ， tā men de shēn xíng yě dōu huò duō huò shǎo de shēng biàn huà le 。
衣衫被撑破，他们的身形也都或多或少的生变化了。
This thought flashed through Luo Zishu's mind as she had no time to think further. The liquid quickly entered her dantian and spread throughout her body via spiritual energy.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō ， yǐn yǐn jué de yǒu xiē yǎn shú ， shì mó huà me ？
林轩瞳孔微缩，隐隐觉得有些眼熟，是魔化么？
Luo Zishu’s eyes showed a hint of panic, but soon were replaced by blood-red. A violent aura rose from within; she touched her head, her originally elegant face twisted in pain. Puff! Puff! Puff!
bú duì ， yǔ yāo mó míng xiǎn bù tóng ， dào yǔ yīn sī jiè de mǒu xiē lì guǐ pǒ yǒu jǐ fēn xiāng sì zhī chù 。
不对，与妖魔明显不同，倒与阴司界的某些厉鬼颇有几分相似之处。
From behind her back, bat-like wings grew. The changes didn’t stop there—her nails elongated, her pupils turned purple, and her exposed skin developed countless strange patterns.
luó jiā lǎo zǔ de yǎn zhōng lù chū yī sī fēng kuáng zhī sè ， zhè “ fǎn zǔ dān ” nǎi shì luó jiā mì chuán ， bù guò fān biàn jiā zú de lì shǐ ， bāo kuò zhè huí ， yě jǐn shǐ yòng guò liǎng cì 。
罗家老祖的眼中露出一丝疯狂之色，这“返祖丹”乃是罗家秘传，不过翻遍家族的历史，包括这回，也仅使用过两次。
These patterns were intricate and resembled talismans to some extent.
dì yī cì shǐ yòng de shí hòu ， nǎi shì luó jiā shēng sǐ cún wáng zhī jì ， zǒng tán bèi qī dà zōng mén wéi gōng ， yǎn jiàn dǐ dí bú zhù ， bù shǎo gāo shǒu jiù shǐ yòng fǎn zǔ dān le 。
第一次使用的时候，乃是罗家生死存亡之际，总坛被七大宗门围攻，眼见抵敌不住，不少高手就使用返祖丹了。
The changes weren't limited to Luo Zishu; the other seven Luo Family cultivators, including two late-stage元婴期masters, also suffered intense pain. Their clothes were torn as their forms changed in various ways.
gù míng sī yì ， cǐ dān néng gòu jiāng tā men xuè mài zhōng de lì liàng huàn xǐng ， luó jiā běn jiù shì tiān shā míng wáng de hòu yì ， suī rán chuán chéng duō nián hòu ， xuè mài yǐ hěn xī bó ， dàn yī jiù kě yǐ biàn huà wèi yīn sī de guǐ wù ， ér biàn shēn yǐ hòu ， shí lì kě shì huì bào zhǎng yī dà jié de 。 dāng rán ， tiān shàng bú huì diào xiàn bǐng ， lì liàng suī kě tí shēng ， fù chū de dài jià yě bù fēi 。
顾名思义，此丹能够将他们血脉中的力量唤醒，罗家本就是天煞明王的后裔，虽然传承多年后，血脉已很稀薄，但依旧可以变化为阴司的鬼物，而变身以后，实力可是会暴涨一大截的。当然，天上不会掉馅饼，力量虽可提升，付出的代价也不菲。
Lin Xuan’s pupils constricted; he felt a familiar sensation. Was this demonization?
jí shǐ shì yuán yīng hòu qī de dà xiū shì ， zhè zhǒng biàn shēn yě zhǐ néng zhī chēng yī zhù xiāng de gōng fu ， suí hòu jiù bào tǐ ér wáng le 。！
即使是元婴后期的大修士，这种变身也只能支撑一炷香的功夫，随后就爆体而亡了。！
No, it was different from that of demons and monsters, resembling certain厉ghosts from the阴司界.
The Elder Patriarch of Luo Family's eyes showed madness. This "Return to Ancestral Pill" was a secret passed down by the Luo Family but had only been used twice in their history, including this time.
During its first use, it was during a critical moment for the Luo Family when seven major sects besieged their main hall. Faced with overwhelming odds, many experts took the Return to Ancestral Pill.
As the name suggested, the pill could awaken their bloodline power. The Luo Family were descendants of the Celestial Defiler King; although their lineage had thinned over time, they could still transform into阴司ghosts. After transformation, their strength would significantly increase. However, there was no free lunch—while their strength could be boosted, the cost was high.
Even late-stage元婴期masters could only maintain this form for a short while, an incense stick’s worth of time, before exploding and dying.
The words of the master and servant duo seemed to treat him as a fish on a chopping board, subject to any slaughter. The Nine-Headed Elder Patriarch naturally felt furious at this. As an entity from the Separation and Union Realm, when had he ever endured such humiliation? However, despite his anger, after witnessing Little Moon's abilities, he dared not be careless.
With a flick of his sleeves,磅礴的妖力汹涌而出。
Having seen the fate of the Nine Heavens Profound Sovereign, this old fellow wisely refrained from invoking天地元气. Indeed, the power within his body could be freely controlled, which greatly relieved him.
Clicks and pops filled his ears as his clothes were torn apart by the force, his form swelling to become a massive nine-headed snake.
Over a hundred feet long, its body was dark and glossy, with scales shimmering with light. Though it was a snake, its imposing presence made even dragons seem like ants in comparison. A fifth-stage妖族, this was his true form.
A large, luminous ball hung above the nine heads, casting an ominous aura. Summon!
With a flick of its tail and a wide opening of its mouth, it spat out nine light columns as thick as buckets. These columns suddenly split into smaller snakes mid-air.
Each snake was no more than a foot long but numbered in the tens of thousands, densely packed together.
The massive snake's presence visibly weakened, indicating that this secret technique wasn't easily performed. Hmph!

Unfortunately, using it reduced its availability.
Thus, while Little Moon appeared to be in the Condensation Core Stage, the Nine Heavens Profound Sovereign met a humiliating defeat at her hands. With a sneer, she raised her left hand and pointed forward. "Break!"
Her lips slightly parted as she uttered a single word: "Break!" The surrounding sky suddenly changed; after the strange phenomena disappeared, it had been clear skies, but now, it turned strangely gloomy.
Dark clouds gathered, and snowflakes like goose feathers began to fall from the sky.
A blue light flashed, freezing countless魔snakes in ice.
Everyone was stunned. What kind of power was this?
Separation and Union Realm cultivators could initially manipulate天地元气, but only with their own cultivation techniques. For example, Elder Grandmaster of Tiansha Hailou Temple, Dream Ruyan, practiced the Drifting Cloud Snowfall Technique, a top-tier water attribute technique that could control water元气, especially in seas or lakes. However, she couldn't manipulate other elements.
When Little Moon pointed her hand, a faint silver glow appeared before freezing the魔snakes. The silver glow was of an undefined nature—neither earth, wood, fire, water, nor metal. It seemed to transcend the Five Elements. Could it be that this was legendary divine power?
