Chapter 1857: Mandate And Ice

The three other Great Emperors also appeared to be shocked at Clara's icy wisps that appeared like flames, but just icy-blue in color as they swayed in the air, capable of chilling someone to the bones, turning them into a frozen corpse that could shatter at the slightest touch in an instant.

"Mandate Emperor, you're telling me that you aren't aware of the powers of your own disciple?"

"I am aware that she possesses ice energy but not Ice Phoenix Flames." The Mandate Emperor narrowed his eyes, "If this is the case, then what power does Myria have? Don't tell me that they both possess Ice Phoenix Immortal Blood."

The others all looked at the Mandate Emperor with confusion.

"It could be… possible." The Vast Sky Emperor nodded, "I mean, if it's an immortal inheritance we're talking about, they both could've passed its Emperor Grade Trials, becoming rivals who could possibly kill each other for it."

"Does that mean that their relationship is one of animosity?" The Starnova Emperor couldn't help but ask, "However, the Hex Demoness called Myria as Ellia and asked her to return. What's going on here?"

"They probably have a complicated relationship." The Karmic Guardian Emperor replied.

"That's for sure..."

The Starnova Emperor almost rolled his eyes in exasperation. They were all extremely curious but couldn't find the answer. 

However, they all felt that Myria had already inherited the Ice Phoenix Immortal Inheritance, and that's why the Hex Demoness asked for her return. They felt it was more likely to be the case than anything they could imagine. After all, the Mystic Ice Sect also seem to have mysteriously risen, which made them doubt Myria heavily. 

But contrary to what they expected, neither Clara nor Myria was the successor to the Ice Phoenix Immortal, which made their curiosity and speculations pretty much go to waste.

*Whizz!~*

With wind and ice clashing against each other, the atmosphere transitioned into one of a ravaging blizzard. It wreaked havoc as it swirled around them, threatening to freeze or cleave anything that dared to step inside the five-kilometer zone.

This was the case as they limited the range to concentrate their attacks a bit. Otherwise, their attacks would spread to many kilometers, causing damage to the others.

"This is… completely unexpected..."

Jambei's expression calm and poised expression completely fell as he looked at the monstrosity in front of him.

He couldn't believe that the Emperor of Death's little sister also had two Perfect Domains but different than his; they were both five-kilometer domains that rose tumultuous waves in his heart, causing it to beat faster.

He was sure that Mandate and Ice Laws were totally two different laws, unlike Fire and Lightning, which at least had their yang nature connecting them. But to comprehend until reaching this level in both Mandate Laws and Ice Laws at such a young age, was it even possible?

"You have two types of wind, but unfortunately for a single law, you can only have a single domain. However, I have two of my Perfect Domains overlapped with each other, strengthening one and another. You can't defeat me, so give up before I make a move that could gravely injure you."

"So polite… However, if I don't even face the challenge, then I'm truly not worthy of you!"

Jambei spread his hands out as Emerald Gale Roc Wind surged out crazily, trying to forcefully break the suppression cast by the two five-kilometer Perfect Domains cast on him.

"Break!~"

The suppression shattered, and he quickly turned formless using his Formless Breeze Physique, becoming one with the end as he shot in the opposite direction, looking like he wanted to escape Clara's five-kilometer domain.

However, he stopped at the edge and spread out his hands.

"Almighty Wind Nullification!"

Abruptly, the atmosphere around them began to condense before imploding, causing the icy air to fade rapidly. It caused the heave chill to recede, allowing Jambei to become freer of the suppression before he attacked again.

"Subduing Wind Fist!"

He punched out straight at Clara when a massive force of wind rushed towards her. It was like a tsunami of wind, appearing to have been complemented by his previous technique that caused the space to become filled with his Emerald Gale Roc Wind instead of his Formless Breeze Physique Wind that was weaker in destruction prowess.

The strong wind he unleashed rapidly approached Clara.

However, Clara merely stayed indifferent to the current circumstance.

Her hands didn't even move, but an ice wall made up of Ice Phoenix Flame Wisps appeared before the emerging wind tsunami, causing them to clash!

*Bang!~*

The wind tried to cleave with its destructive force. However, the icy wisps were too strong, instantly freezing the wind and its energy which further constructed layers and layers of ice to defend against the onslaught of the wind.

Jambei clenched his teeth and shot towards her flank. His body split into two as he headed for both her left and right flank.

Clara's eyes widened. It was her first time to see an afterimage this real, making her wonder if this was an illusion. However, knowing that his physique was special, she didn't let her guard down and spread her hands.

"Embolden."

The formless might of her mandate energy surrounding her further infused with the technique she cast. The energy passed through her meridian pathways through certain points that activated the mysteries of the technique, abruptly strengthening her formless might by many times.

*Bang!~*

*Bang!~*

The two figures of Jambei abruptly got struck by a formless might that arrived directly before him and struck both his face. The energy figure he conjured using his Formless Breeze Physique was instantly destroyed as a result while he was sent flying.

Jambei clenched his teeth, looking at his caved cheek.

'How terrifying is her accuracy…!?'

He couldn't believe she caught him when he was swift.

Abruptly, icy wisps began to appear on his legs, freezing him until it got to his thighs before he was thrown out of her domains. The strength of the icy wisps became lesser, and he was instantly able to slip away from becoming more injured using his Formless Breeze Physique.

However, he could not understand the extent of her power. What was her limit? Could it be that she has something more frightening up her sleeves for her to be this calm!?

Jambei felt his horizons flip. He, who had always felt lazy because his opponents were not up to par, now had his ass whooped by a woman. It didn't make him angry but made him deeply aware of his weakness.

Clenching his teeth, he flipped in mid-air and struck against Clara without even regaining balance.

"Tumultuous Wind Arrow! Let's see your ice block this!"

By the time he bellowed with a hint of challenge, a bright green winged arrow had shot from his palms and zoomed in on Clara, almost instantly reaching her.

Clara raised her hand and punched out. The emboldened formless might she had gathered punched out, heavily impacting the winged green arrow. The arrow struck the formless might and pierced through it as though it didn't face any difficulty doing so. However, what awaited in front of it were a row of icy wisps that instantly caught fire over it, but instead of burning, it froze!

Clara remained calm. However, there was an arrow right in front of her face that stayed frozen in mid-air. She reached out her hand and flicked her finger, shattering it into a billion pieces and what she saw was an awestruck Jambei who seemed taken aback by the power of her actions.

However, Jambei was flabbergasted by the unforgettable scene. Not only him, but many inexplicably fell for Clara at this moment, looking like they had entered a fantastical world.

Clara dropped her arm and spoke.

"Using your physique while sending Emerald Gale Roc Wind at me should take a considerable toll on your energy capacity. At this rate, are you sure that you could even last that long against me?"

"Hahaha. I mean, I could last longer and try to defeat you if the rewards were more useful to me."

Jambei wryly smiled as he shrugged.

"I give up."

"Excellent." Clara nodded, "Your will is apt for the cultivation path. I don't think I can remain calm after losing a battle with an equal-level opponent."

"No, I feel frustrated enough to kill myself from shame but can't be uncool in front of the public, you know..."

Jambei snapped his finger as a white light embraced him before he disappeared.

*Woahhh!!!~~~*

His unkempt appearance, graceful actions, and honest character left the people feeling as though they had eaten a good delicacy, leaving a good taste in their mouths that converted into boisterous cheers for both of their strengths capabilities.
