Divine Emperor of Death

Natalya and Iesha stood side by side as they faced the Crimson Fistflame Spirits together. Their fists shone with an icy white light as they directed their ice energy towards the spirits. Oppressive undulations began to spread as chunks and shards of ice formed in mid-air before they shot towards the fiery spirits.

Both attacks had devastating and piercing prowess with them, meaning that they could not be countered directly and couldn't easily be stopped at the same time. It was especially the case since Natalya's prowess was...

"What!?"

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince saw the ice shards become vastly stronger than before. It was no longer at the peak of the eighth stage but stepped into the ninth stage as it shot towards him with an icy piercing force which greatly startled him because he could still sense that the human woman's cultivation base was still at Low-Level Eighth Stage!

However, before he could be overwhelmed by this ridiculous scenario, his fists burst out with an unending stream of overbearing and destructive flames as it formed into the shape of a fiery snake as it struck out against the huge chunk of ice and small piercing shards, engulfing them in his flames.

But they endured the melting heat and still shot towards him.

'They are too icy and condensed to melt quickly...!'

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince's fiery scalp turned numb as his foot flashed, appearing somewhere away. However...

"Ahh!"

Two Crimson Fistflame Spirits were smashed and pierced to death because of his inability to defend. He glided towards the back as more took of his lackeys took the place to defend against the attack and crushed them under the blazing and destructive force of their flames. Without the prince's flames, they couldn't have managed to break Natalya and Iesha's attack.

However, before they could even regain their breaths, the two women infiltrated into their ranks and clasped their hands as a loud resonance echoed.

Instantly, their surroundings froze to absolute zero and below as icy essence energy ran rampant, causing them to freeze before their fiery flames died down and revealed their flesh that was pale red in color. But they quickly became paler under the sheet of ice that was forming all over them, making them freeze to death.

With a mere touch of Iesha and Natalya's hands, both the frozen statues shattered into thousands of pieces before they reached out their hand collected the pieces that possessed the spatial ring and spirit core.

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince narrowed his eyes and clenched his teeth as he saw that only six of his lackeys were left. At this rate, he knew that he would soon die as they died one by one.

"Guard me!"

With a bellow, he shot towards the side, looking at the icy world sphere that barred his path before intense flames began to surge from his palms.

"Haa!"

The flames in his palms began to radiate with a bright crimson color as they condensed into one big fist, launching towards the ice barrier.

*Bang!~*

It reached and almost destroyed the icy world sphere as it formed cracks, but at this moment, Iesha and Natalya leisurely took down another two Peak-Level Spirit Supremes as one got crushed and the other got pierced to death.

"Iesha, we make a good pair..."

"I didn't expect you to have a natural flow with my attacks, Natalya. But as expected of someone who practices Yin Laws. You know where exactly I'm targeting while knowing the path of my hard-to-grasp energy flow..."

The two of them praised each other with smiling faces when a loud explosion resounded.

Iesha saw the icy world sphere she formed had been penetrated. However, she didn't bother with it and moved to attack the remaining Spirit Supremes. Natalya saw that Iesha didn't care and instantly understood as the flow of energy was apparent to her.

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince grinned as he made his escape from the hole he made out of the icy world sphere but stopped as his body became stiff, his fiery crimson eyes reflecting the image of another icy world sphere blocking his path.

'Three-Layered Ice World Cage Technique...'

He clenched his teeth as he came to understand another icy world sphere was waiting at the other side to stop him, even if he managed to destroy the one in front of him.

Nevertheless, he only stopped for a moment before attacking the icy wall barring his path.

"How come the elders haven't arrived yet!?"

He bellowed as he knew that he underestimated the ability of the Frigid Ice World Spirit and panicked, wanting someone to save him. He couldn't understand how that human woman was as strong as a ninth stage powerhouse while being at the beginning of the eighth stage.

It felt completely ridiculous to him.

If he had known she was this strong, he wouldn't have bothered to near them to help his brethren, the two other princes who got instantly massacred by that purple-robed human man.

He thought only the human man had a monstrous prowess of this degree and felt that he had to kill him no matter what, but this human woman also possessed a prowess that surpassed the male she was with!

He couldn't understand why he was met with ill-fate like this out of nowhere while returning from a lucky treasure hunt!

*Boom!~*

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince broke through the second wall with his flames and arrived at the third wall. At this time, he sensed that only one of his lackeys was left before his fiery life was also snuffed out like a candle flame that had been blown.

"...!"

He trembled as he could feel two ice energies starting to approach him while he was almost near to the third icy wall, readying his fist, not knowing if he would make it out when he suddenly saw the icy wall melt as flames began to seep into them.

"Elders!"

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince shouted in joy.

*Boom!~*

"Ahhh!~"

Two scorched figures were sent flying past him, causing him to freeze in place before he saw a crimson-robed woman outside the hole made on the icy wall smirk at him with disdain prevalent in her eyes.

Fearsome dark crimson flames tinged with a gold hue erupted out from her palm as she shot towards the distance, where he could see more of his elders adopt a defensive posture towards her approach.

Only then did he turn to look towards the scorched bodies that fell all the way down to the surface of the icy sphere as blood splashed. He had heard their voices and recognized them as elders who were Low-Level Spirit Ancestors. However, once they touched the icy wall, it caught them and pulled them into the ice, trapping and freezing them.

Within a second, they died just like that.

"Can't go out?"

Natalya's voice mockingly echoed out as she arrived before the Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince along with Iesha. The latter clasped her hand, and the hole in the third wall became sealed again as the ice grew in it. The next second, spikes emerged from the icy wall, threatening to pierce the fiery spirit if he ever tried to come closer and provided an additional amount of defense, causing his expression to become pale as the flames on his body dwindled.

The Crimson Fistflame Spirit Prince looked at this scene before he turned to look at the two women who cornered him.. A ruthless light shone in his crimson eyes as he began to burn his spirit essence.
