第两千五百二十一章 求饶

The only sound was the continuous explosion, and the fluctuations of primordial qi in the天地 were intense beyond description. This strange phenomenon lasted for a full teacup's time before the flickering spiritual light gradually dimmed. The dark aura also subsided, revealing a massive figure.

Ice Bear King!

At this moment, his dozens of arms still maintained their attacking posture, but they had frozen there in mid-action.

The treasure he held was devoid of any spirit, just like a heap of old iron.

His expression was even more indescribable—there was fear, but also不甘and regret. Simply put, he died with unfinished business, falling to his rival. Naturally, he would be extremely unwilling to accept this.

Wu...

A cold wind blew, and the enormous body of this demon began to disintegrate into sand, dissipating in the endless ice plains.

He had once fought Lin Xuan, but on that occasion, Lin Xuan was merely acting out a show, using only two or three-tenths of his strength, treating him like a clown.

This time was different. Lin Xuan fully unleashed the power of the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword. Thus, the multi-armed bear, who had misjudged Lin Xuan's strength, did not even last one round before tragically perishing.

However, this wasn't the end. Lin Xuan then turned his head to the left.

There were two enemies. The Ice Bear King was now in the Underworld. How about the Frost Rat King?

Another shadow appeared in his sight, but unlike the disintegrated multi-armed bear, the Frost Rat King, though severely injured, still lived and had not perished.

This wasn't strange.

Firstly, his strength was superior to that of the multi-armed bear.

Secondly, after using the Hundred Dragons Fang, Lin Xuan did not immediately attack but instead deployed several defensive treasures.

Careful is wise. The combined effect of these factors allowed him to preserve his life.

However, it wasn't just preserved.

The Nine Palaces Momentary Sword had upgraded to a tri-attribute treasure, and this was the first time Lin Xuan used the Hundred Dragons Fang. Its power far exceeded his expectations.

Despite multiple defenses, the Frost Rat King's predicament was dire due to his haste and proximity. His actions were akin to bracing for impact against Lin Xuan's attack.

Under the might of the Hundred Dragons Fang, although he managed to preserve his life, severe injuries could not be avoided.

One arm had vanished, and his entire body was covered in wounds. His face showed extreme fear as he tightly gripped a jade-like object with his right hand. A round gem floated above him.

The gem was pale green, with faint符文emerging like rice grains. It seemed to be an extraordinary treasure, but what use did it serve now?

At this point, the Frost Rat King had no hope of reversing his fate.

Moreover, he was terrified by Lin Xuan's formidable strength.

One move and both the Ice Bear King and himself were dispatched. Was this guy a Divisive Spirit? If not for knowing that only the Elder Ice could transcend the Tribulation Realm in this world, he almost doubted whether Lin Xuan wasn't some old monster pretending to be weak.

Regardless, his immense power was beyond his defense.

The death of the Ice Old Demon at his hands was no exaggeration; it was true.

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, the demon began to beg for mercy.

"Princess Xiang'er, Fellow Daoist Lin, it's all my fault. Please forgive me this time."

When he spoke, the Frost Rat King felt extremely aggrieved. After all, his plan had been flawless—by common sense, the Snow Fox Clan should have been defeated long ago, and he would be the victor. Who knew that their luck would turn so dramatically, with a powerful ally appearing from nowhere to alter the final outcome.

Defeat was not due to any fault on his part.

At this moment, he deeply understood the saying: "Man plans, heaven disposes."

The only emotion was frustration, but what could he do?

In the realm of cultivation, might is right. It doesn't matter who's in the right; the victor is the one with power. Despite all his efforts, he ended up with such a tragic fate.

"Fellow Daoist, it's too late to regret now," Lin Xuan's indifferent voice entered his ears, devoid of any emotion.

"Princess Xiang'er."

The Frost Rat King directed his pleading gaze towards Little Snow Fox, displaying a pitiful expression. However, he miscalculated again; although young, she was the leader of her clan. Since her sister was frozen, it had been her who supported the Snow Fox Clan single-handedly. She wasn't easily swayed by a few words.

Moreover, Lin Xuan was present. The powerful display of his strength left Little Princess in awe, her eyes sparkling with admiration as she obediently stood beside him, showing deference to him.

Lin Xuan raised his right hand, and the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword floating around emitted silver light, faintly echoing a phoenix's cry.

The Frost Rat King's face turned even paler.

With severe injuries, how could he withstand it? Even the slightest chance of escape was nonexistent.

"Fellow Daoist, I am willing to admit my mistake and offer substantial compensation to the Snow Fox Clan. How about that?" The Frost Rat King said anxiously.

"Humph."

Lin Xuan didn't even bother answering; he was a man who wouldn't shed tears until seeing a coffin. At this point, offering such meager terms showed no sincerity.

Since there was none, Lin Xuan had no qualms about sending him to the Underworld.

"Go!"

Lin Xuan's sharp command echoed in his ears as silver rays shot out like meteors toward the Frost Rat King.

"Fellow Daoist, please spare my life. I admit my mistake. Just let me live, and you can ask for anything; if it's within my power, I will not refuse," the Frost Rat King's panicked voice entered his ears. At this point, he finally realized that his fate was in someone else's hands, leaving him with no bargaining power.

"Better."

Lin Xuan's indifferent voice echoed. With a mental command, the Nine Palaces Momentary Sword stopped just a few meters away from the demon. If he had delayed another moment, he would have lost his head.

The Frost Rat King was drenched in sweat as he looked at Lin Xuan with fear. This was a decisive and ruthless individual; before him now, there was no room for negotiation.

A wise man adapts to circumstances. A submissive expression appeared on his face: "Just spare my life, Fellow Daoist, you can ask for anything."

"Alright."

Lin Xuan said indifferently, then waved his sleeve, sending a small, glossy wooden plaque flying out.

"What is this?"

The Frost Rat King's eyes widened with fear as he recognized it. "A Soul Restriction Plaque?"
