An Understated Dominance

After a prolonged battle, Anthony and the others finally realized the gravity of the situation.

Arion wasn’t just a sword master but also had unpredictable agility. No matter how they attacked, they couldn’t even land a single hit. On top of that, his sword was a constant threat.

If this deadlock continued, the situation would only worsen. So, when Bailey spoke, they knew it was time for decisive action, and there was no turning back. It was either kill or be killed.

At that moment, Anthony, who had been holding back, finally decided to use his ultimate technique. He bit his finger and smeared the blood across his blade. His lips moved quickly as if whispering an incantation.

“Snow Maiden, arise!” As soon as the words left his mouth, he swung his sword.

A white figure shot out and hovered in the air. It was a woman with fair skin and mesmerizing beauty. Her long hair cascaded like a waterfall, her dress was as white as snow, and her eyes had a sinister gleam.

The moment she appeared, the temperature plummeted as if winter had arrived. Everywhere she passed, the ground froze, buildings frosted over, and heavy snowflakes began to fall from the sky. This only added to the eerie atmosphere.

She was the Snow Maiden, a legendary demon from Kimboku, and was sealed within Anthony’s demonic blade. Beautiful yet deadly, she wielded the power of ice and snow. A single breath from her could freeze an entire village, and her power was immense and overwhelming.

This demon had been passed down through the Alessandro family for generations, and Anthony had always kept her as his last resort. He would only call upon her in situations where his life was in grave danger. Each time she was summoned, he lost ten years of his life.

But now, with everything on the line and the need to defeat Arion, Anthony had no other option. Ten years of his life seemed a small price to pay when compared to dying here.

Just as Anthony summoned the Snow Maiden, Batuul unleashed his ultimate attack.

With a thunderous roar, Batuul’s eyes turned red, and veins bulged from his skin. A wave of violent energy surged upward, and a massive illusory image appeared behind him. It was nearly 26 feet tall, with a human body and an elephant’s head.

This imposing illusory Elephantine exuded an unapproachable divine power. After it materialized, Batuul’s momentum surged, and his cultivation reached a new level.

Upon seeing this, the three elite assassins from Eskus wasted no time and immediately launched their combined technique. The trio spun in unison until their bodies intertwined to create a blur of afterimages that merged into a powerful energy vortex.

After several seconds, the vortex stopped, and a giant, nearly 13 feet tall, appeared. It was grotesque and deformed, with three heads and six arms. Each hand gripped a weapon that gleamed with lethal energy.

With a single breath, the Snow Maiden released a gust of icy wind that transformed the area within a hundred yards into a frozen wasteland.

Arion, the first caught in the storm, found his speed drastically reduced. His swordplay grew sluggish under the weight of the cold, and the freezing conditions only worsened his movement.

The Snow Maiden’s supreme divine power to control ice and snow was formidable. Even an ultimate grandmaster would struggle to endure and constantly need to use their internal energy to fend off the chill. Once their energy depleted, they would turn into ice sculptures.
