Talented Martial Hero
Chapter 949 The Water Spirit's Wrath

Darren started his cultivation again as he knew that he couldn't participate in the test.

Slowly, three years passed.

During this time, Darren focused on upgrading the blue ice crystal and comprehending the true iceintent.

But, he wasn't the only one who felt bored in this desolate world of snow and ice.

From time to time, the Water Spirit would observe Darren and gauge his comprehension of the trueice intent. As she now had something to do, she wasn't quite as bored as before.

"It only took him three years to form a high-grade ice crystal.”

One day, the Water Spirit checked Darren's progress again, but to her surprise, his crystal wasalready close to the highest level. If he went further, he would become the True Ice Spiritual Body.After he succeeded, no ice element attack would cause him any damage.

His progress came as a great surprise to the Water Spirit.

Boom!

Suddenly, a loud explosion occurred. The snow and ice around Darren scattered in the air, and ablue light lit up the whole world. The light was so dazzling that even the Water Spirit couldn't keepher eyes open.

"Wow! He has become a True Ice Spiritual Body! He is so powerful!" the Water Spirit exclaimed.When she was observing him earlier, her calculations showed her that it would take another threeyears for this human to become a True Ice Spiritual Body. Unexpectedly, he reached a breakthroughbefore she could process her theory.

"Hum, but he is too unsympathetic. It doesn't matter that he is powerful. I can't let him pass.” TheWater Spirit was reminded of the time when Darren first came here. He had completely ignored her!The memory upset the Water Spirit.

When Darren woke from his cultivation, he noticed that all the cold had disappeared.

"Ha-ha, I've become a True Fire and Water Spiritual Body. Now I should be eligible to inherit the Fireand Water Emperor Character.” Darren was overjoyed.

A second later, he frowned. He remembered that he had no idea how to leave this place.

"Since the Water Spirit hasn't come to see me, I will take the initiative to bring her here." Darrendecided.

The small fire had warned Darren not to use any fire energy, or the Water Spirit would harm himNow, it seemed like the perfect time to use fire to draw the Water Spirit out.

Moreover, Darren had become a True Ice Spiritual Body. He was not afraid of any level of coldness,and he was not anxious about the Water Spirit's attacks!

After careful consideration, Darren activated the three kinds of godly fires in his body.

Crash!

As soon as the godly fires appeared, the flames around him melted a large amount of ice and snow.A few seconds later, a huge lake spread out around Darren.

The longer he continued to burn the surroundings with his godly fires, the quicker the iceberg in thedistance began to collapse, and the more violently the water world began to shake.

"Hey!"

A harsh voice suddenly pierced Darren's eardrums, and a stunning blue figure appeared in front ofhim.

"Human, you're courting death!"

The Water Spirit stood in front of him, emotionlessly.

"If I hadn't done all this, you wouldn't have come out. Don't blame me.” Darren shrugged.

However, the Water Spirit did not respond. Instead, she released her killing intent!

The Fire Spirit and the Water Spirit were enemies. When Darren released his godly fires, it arousedthe Water Spirit's innate hostility. This was why she was so quick to want to kill Darren.

"Die!" With a cold snort, she released streaks of horrifying true ice intent that enveloped Darren andfroze his godly fires.

"What?"

Darren was astounded. The Water Spirit had frozen his powerful godly fires. How powerful was herice intent?

Before Darren could comprehend her power, the horrifying ice intent encased him.

Darren was simply unable to react and was completely encased. Had this happened before hisbreakthrough, Darren would have frozen to death. Now that he was a True Ice Spiritual Body, the iceintent would not hurt him.

What shocked him was that even though the ice intent did not hurt him, all of his power had beenfrozen. At the moment, he was like an ordinary, powerless man.

"This is too scary.” Darren was surprised that the true ice intent was mighty enough to even freeze ahalf-step emperor!

Even if the true ice intent did not kill or harm him, being frozen like this would eventually weakenhim. And then, he could be slaughtered by people.

Only then did Darren realize the extent of the danger he faced. In this situation, there was no needfor the Water Spirit to use the true ice intent. She could just stab him to death with one finger.

"I was too careless.” Darren murmured. "She can't kill me with her true ice intent, but she has thestrength of her physical body. I will turn into dust with only one slap.”

The Water Spirit's physical body was comparable to that of a senior holy warrior. She could easily killDarren, whose body was completely frozen.

Whoosh!

The blue figure landed in front of Darren, and her killing intent made Darren's heart tremble.

“No, she must not attack, or she will kill me for sure!’ Darren thought, dismayed.

Then, he got an idea. If he could use the fire to weaken the ice cocoon that had trapped him, hemight be able to restore some strength and replace a way to escape.

After breaking through the ice completely, Darren's strength would return to its peak. As long as heattacked fast enough, he could defeat the Water Spirit.

"I lost! As the Fire Spirit, I admit defeat!" Darren roared in desperation.

'Why did he call himself the Fire Spirit?" the Water Spirit thought.

This was all part of Darren's deceit. He had to mention something the Water Spirit cared about toshake her from her near-comatose state.

Since the Fire Spirit and Water Spirit were natural enemies, an admission of defeat by the Fire Spiritwould surely disturb her a little.

When the angry Water Spirit froze and contemplated over this puzzling development, Darren'shunch was proved right.

Her spiritual sense instantly probed Darren, as if to ascertain if he was the real Fire Spirit.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Sensing the change, Darren took advantage and released the godly fires from deep within his body.He had been so desperate that he released everything. In the blink of an eye, his flame crystal wasempty.

After erupting from his body, the three godly fires were quickly frozen by the true ice intent.However, this response consumed the power of the true ice intent.

Darren threw out all three kinds of godly fires to weaken the ice intent. This action also helped himrecover his lost strength.

Exhilaration coursed through Darren when he realized that his plan was succeeding. His spiritualsense ran wild, and he immediately swallowed a drop of the holy emperor's power attached to thestrange stone.

"Fortunately, this place is different from the flame zone. Had I been transformed into a mortal likethe last time, I wouldn't have a chance to swallow the holy emperor's power."

Previously, Darren had been faced with the threat of death in the flame zone. As his spiritual sensecould not communicate with the strange stone in his head, he was unable to swallow the holyemperor's power.

But, in this world of ice and snow, Darren's power did not decrease. The Water Spirit had just frozenhim. As the seal was weakened, he could activate more spiritual sense to connect with the strangestone, and thus, was able to swallow the liquid of the holy emperor's power.

"Argh!" When the Water Spirit felt that something was wrong, she screeched and released anotherwave of potent true ice intent.

This was a critical moment for Darren. If he were frozen before his power increased, he would die!
