won't be the last one.

Chapter 97 won't be the last.

At that moment, Jieluo exerted force in unison on all eight of his feet, stopping his momentum and then retreating amidst a wave of icy white light. In the blink of an eye, the icy white light engulfed the entire sixth floor.

"Turn into an eternal ice sculpture!!!"

From within the light came Yukihime's hoarse roar!

The light came quickly and went quickly. In just a flash, the broken ice crystal fragments that were suspended in mid-air fell down like a sudden downpour. With a crackling sound, the ice crystals shattered and scattered all over the ground.

Suddenly, a large amount of chakra erupted in the arena. Yuki, supporting herself on her knees, trembled slightly and gasped for breath as she looked up ahead.

Opposite them, there was a human-shaped ice sculpture, half-squatting with one hand raised in front of it.

It is impossible for a normal ninja to maintain consciousness and vital signs such as heartbeat in this frozen environment. Under this ultra-low temperature technique, even cells would be frozen to death, turning into fresh frozen meat.

"You've really pushed me to this point..."

Xue Ji's face was cold, and she spoke softly and coolly.

"So, it's over."

His gaze fell on the eight giant scythes that had been exposed after being frozen around Jieluo's hands, and on a giant hand. His gaze then moved down to the eight spider-like segmented legs that were distributed beneath Jieluo's body.

My eyelids twitched involuntarily.

Is this the monster, that terrifying invisible weapon?

Judging from the connection point, is it hair?

It's such an inconspicuous thing...

But I won!

Yukihime turned around; it was time to repel the Kirigakure's offensive. Perhaps by eliminating one of the old man Byakuren's key generals, they could gain...

"Click..."

Yukihime's body stiffened, and she mechanically turned her head, her eyes narrowing to pinpoints as she stared at the frozen Yukihime.

First, a crack appeared on the ice surface, then a ghostly blue flame shot out, and tiny blue sparks spilled out from the cracks that gradually filled the area around her. Then, large pieces of ice fell off Jieluo's body and landed on the floor. Jieluo stood up, her whole body wrapped in a layer of ghostly blue flames. The weapons and feet that had been frozen in ice disappeared again, turning into nothingness.

"You've been hiding a powerful technique." Jieluo smiled faintly, the flames around her extinguished, and looked at Xueji.

This was a technique not mentioned in the intelligence, so it caught everyone off guard. That kid, Hozuki Gengetsu, actually managed to force Yukihime to use all her tricks.

Yukihime's eyelids twitched. The reason she was able to keep this technique hidden until now was entirely because Hozuki Gengetsu's fighting style was too disgusting. Hiding in the illusion, she couldn't find an opportunity to use it, and it was difficult for her to get close enough to Hozuki Gengetsu to create a chance to kill him.

"You..." Yukihime's throat bobbed, and then she fell silent.

No one knew the power of her move better than she did; no living person could withstand it.

"What? Have you given up?" Jielu tilted her head and asked, "You seem surprised that I could stop you." Her body was still a little stiff, and even Jielu felt cold to the bone. Her demonic power flowed through her body, absorbing the continuous stream of negative emotions that erupted from all parts of the battlefield and quickly transforming them into demonic power. She secretly moved her hands and feet.

After the battle, Jieluo's demonic power level showed no sign of decreasing.

The cellular-level ultra-low temperature attack capability is similar to Dust Escape. All the cells in the body are frozen to death. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for a person to survive. The brain is completely frozen and loses the ability to think.

But Jieluo is a demon, all her cells are frozen to death, so what does it matter to her? Let her die or not.

Even the reanimated ninja, after breaking through the ice layer, rubbed his head in confusion when faced with this move.

That's it?

"You..." Yukihime said, "Are you really human?"

"What do you think?" Jie Luo asked with interest.

Yukihime said dejectedly, "I don't understand." Her fighting spirit had dissipated; she truly couldn't comprehend it.

There have been many fierce battles to date, but since the Warring States period, no one has been able to survive her attack. Jieluo is the first.

"What a pity," Jieluo said with a faint smile, "I wasn't able to enjoy myself enough..."

She opened her mouth, her eyes filled with utter despair, and said, "I'm weak, I'm so sorry..."

"So, are you planning to admit defeat?" Jieluo asked.

"Loss?" Yuki shook her head and said, "Unless I'm completely defeated, I will never forgive myself!"

Yukihime's chakra was almost depleted, as could be seen from her pale complexion.

If Yukihime had used conventional tactics to delay instead of fighting to the death, she might have been able to hold out a little longer. But do you think that Yukihime brought the Hidden Mist Ninja Corps here just to show off?

In the previous battle against Hozuki Gengetsu, since they didn't fight at the main camp, Yukihime could have relied on the island's terrain to wage guerrilla warfare and delay the enemy.

But right now, Yukihime can't afford to delay. She must first eliminate Yukihime here, then support the main battlefield and repel the main force of Kirigakure. Otherwise, once Kirigakure breaks through the front of the battlefield, her stalemate with Yukihime will be meaningless, and Kirigakure can use the Yuki clan to hold her hostage.

Forced by Jieluo, she had no choice but to fight him head-on to the death.

"As expected."

The plan is in place.

Yukihime smiled bitterly and said, "You've won. I acknowledge that you have the ability to take over the Second Mizukage."

Jieluo nodded and said, "Then lie down!"

Yuki-hime has to give her people an explanation; it's not that she didn't try her best.

With a slight hook of her fingers, Yuki's invisible hair instantly bound her. As she exerted force, she suspended her in mid-air. Yuki then let out a shrill scream as numerous messy slashes burst forth from her body, leaving her covered in blood.

Yukihime's head, which she had raised, fell heavily back down. Her black hair flew wildly as she gasped for breath, wincing in pain.

Hanging there like that, Yukihime looked out the window at the endless blizzard and asked, "How long will this blizzard last?"

"One hour left," Yukihime said, her blood flowing out and freezing in the low temperature, causing her wounds to freeze as well. She looked utterly miserable, like a defeated Yukihime.

"This technique seems quite interesting," Jieluo said. "But no one is performing it, is there?"

"It's a technique that the Snow Clan has prepared long ago," Snow Princess said. "It only requires maintenance and activation by future generations."

Jieluo nodded thoughtfully and said, "You ninja clans really do all have unique skills. You can seal chakra?"

"By developing Ice Release to a certain level, one can create special ice crystals that have this effect," Yukihime said. "However, over time, the effect will still dissipate, so it is necessary to periodically inject chakra."

What is freezing and preservation technology?

Jieluo said, "I understand."

Jieluo looked at the blizzard. Yukihime's level of technique couldn't completely kill Jieluo, which would be an unsolvable problem for many ninjas.

Yukihime will not be the first, nor the last, to be defeated by Yukihime in this way.

Upon witnessing Yura's immortality, Mochizuki, the first person he faced, readily surrendered as an experienced veteran of the Sengoku period.
