: First Encounter with the Abyss, the Battle Ends!

soon.

News spread that two Tier 3 ferocious beasts were suspected to be fighting in the Level 1 Abyss. Small guilds and novice hunters who were still inside hurriedly evacuated, fearing that they would be affected if they were delayed.

Little did they know that the third-tier ferocious beast they thought it was was just two high school students entering the abyss for the first time...

……

In the middle area, an area within a radius of a thousand meters was frozen solid, covered with icebergs and ice pillars, and the gray sky took on a faint icy blue hue.

Lin Qingyan, with her long, flowing black hair, stood atop an ice pillar, surrounded by pale, frigid air, exuding a cool and noble aura, like a goddess of ice.

But at this moment, her face was very pale, and she stared intently at the person opposite her.

"Bang!"

An ice prison composed of a dozen or so ice pillars shattered amidst violent tremors, creating an opening from which emerged a handsome young man radiating a crimson aura.

"First it was the healing class, then a spellcaster-like profession, and finally this ice-type nature talent that can change celestial phenomena... I guess you must have awakened your second talent."

With each step Jiang Yuan took forward, his footsteps, covered in scorching heat and blood, would hiss as they landed on the ice, sending steam rising.

"To be able to break through the ice prison with your bare hands... I've never seen a physical body like yours before. What kind of talent have you awakened?!"

Lin Qingyan said with a solemn expression.

I thought I would end the battle quickly after using my talent, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult.

The chilling aura that could freeze everything was blocked by the flames formed by his blood and qi ripples, and he was unable to extinguish it at his current level!

Moreover, his own Divine Speaker skills were completely ineffective against him!

Unbelievable!

She was certain that there was no such monster in her previous life. Could it be that her rebirth had brought about some kind of butterfly effect?

"Thump!"

Jiang Yuan did not answer, but simply took another step forward.

"boom!"

His aura suddenly surged several times over, and the intense wind pressure scattered the ice shards on the ground!

Under Lin Qingyan's somewhat astonished gaze.

"Crackling sound!"

Jiang Yuan's entire body was ablaze with intense heat, with streaks of crimson electricity crackling around him. His black hair danced in the wind, and his eyes shone with a blazing golden light. He exuded a terrifying aura and pressure, and the intense heat prevented the surrounding cold air from getting close.

[Starburst State]: Unleash the full power of your life force to enter Starburst State. In this state, you consume 1% of your stamina per second, remove all negative effects, ignore all control effects, increase defense by 1000%, increase attack speed by 500%, increase critical hit rate by 300%, and have no cooldown.

"To be honest, before the match, I didn't expect there to be someone as strong as you among my peers."

Jiang Yuan raised his head, his fiery golden eyes looking at Lin Qingyan like a candlelight in the night.

"To make me use Starburst, I must say, you're quite impressive."

Looking at Jiang Yuan in this state, and listening to his calm words.

Lin Qingyan's sense of crisis increased dramatically, and she even felt a little panicked.

but……

How is this possible?!

She herself was a reborn individual, a legendary dual-talented professional martial artist, and the Qingyan Empress who once reached the pinnacle of the King Realm!

How could I feel fear from someone my own age?!

"I don't believe it! I can't possibly lose!"

Lin Qingyan gritted her teeth.

I cannot admit it, nor can I accept it!

Losing her composure and ignoring the side effects of overusing her talent, she uttered four words in a row.

"gravity!"

"slow!"

"Shattered!"

"Lightning strike!"

Four commands at once.

Blood flowed from her eyes and nose.

Four forces of power, each with a guaranteed hit and impossible to dodge, struck Jiang Yuan. Both gravity and slowing effects were nullified. The shattering and lightning strikes, even with Jiang Yuan's defense boosted by 1000% in his Starburst state and protected by ripples of energy, caused him no pain and couldn't penetrate his defenses.

Ignoring the cost, Lin Qingyan unleashed her ultimate move once again.

"Ice God's Domain!"

Centered on Jiang Yuan, the area within a hundred meters instantly transformed into a world of ice and snow. Countless sharp and hard ice thorns extended from the ground, and snowflakes in the air condensed into ice cones, all attacking him in unison!

"Swish swish!!"

Jiang Yuan punched the ground.

"boom!!"

"Bang—!"

The terrifying force of the punch shattered everything, creating a huge crater ten meters in diameter in the ground!

Crimson ripples spread from the ground, impacting and tearing the entire area apart!

In the face of absolute power, all other methods are merely fancy tricks!

"My Ice God Domain was so easy to use..."

Lin Qingyan couldn't believe it.

next moment.

"Whoosh!"

Jiang Yuan flashed again, using [Divine Speed] to teleport in front of Lin Qingyan and threw a punch!

"quiet……"

Lin Qingyan wanted to use her skills to resist, but her body couldn't take it anymore and she couldn't unleash her skills.

"null!"

Jiang Yuan's fist stopped in front of her, the violent wind from the punch whipping her hair wildly and completely shattering an ice pillar behind her.

You lost.

Jiang Yuan's words completely shattered the pride of the reborn empress, echoing in her mind.

I lost?

Did I lose?

How could I possibly lose?

The past glory, the superiority of being reborn, the responsibility of becoming a savior... all of it was shattered by this one punch!

Unable to withstand the blow, Lin Qingyan's vision went black, she spat out a mouthful of blood, swayed twice, and fell straight forward.

Like a light, drifting willow catkin, it bumped against Jiang Yuan's chest.

Jiang Yuan was stunned.

Before he knew it, he found himself in the arms of a stunningly beautiful school beauty.

"Hey, hey, hey, are you trying to scam me?"

"It's just one loss, and you're already so upset? Is it really that much of a blow?"

"Wake up, you're affecting my leveling up by doing this."

Jiang Yuan pinched her small face and said, "I have to say, she is indeed the school beauty. Her skin is crystal clear and fair, as if you can squeeze water out of it. It feels so good."

Jiang Yuan couldn't resist playing with her a little longer, treating the school beauty's stunning face, whom everyone considered an angel, like a toy. He squeezed her face in the middle and stretched it to the sides, making funny faces at her, before taking a picture of the two of them together.

If Lin Qingyan were to see that she, the dignified empress, had fallen into such a humiliating state, she would probably faint from anger again.

"There's still no response; it seems she really is unconscious."

"This willpower is far too weak."

Jiang Yuan was speechless.

no way.

We can't just leave her there...

"I'll have to take her with me."

Jiang Yuan placed the unconscious Lin Qingyan on his back. A pleasant fragrance wafted towards him, and the soft touch from her back pressed against him caused Jiang Yuan's blood to rush to his head.

"Mmm..." Lin Qingyan let out a soft moan that was enough to make anyone lose control.

Oh, oh.

Surprisingly, despite her slender figure and unassuming appearance, she is quite well-endowed.
