Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

As these words were spoken, the Peacock Demon Clan couldn't help but be taken aback, yet curiosity also instinctively kindled within them. The future leader on the stage seemed to have a powerful grip on space elements, so how would they fare against other attributes?

Hu Mengyu turned to Pretty Girl, "Then let me give it a try."

"Please," Pretty Girl was not keen on prolonged conversation and made an inviting gesture.

Hu Mengyu's eyes turned ice blue in an instant, and without even taking off, patterns resembling frost flowers expanded instantly from underfoot, enveloping both her and Pretty Girl in their embrace, as a surge of extreme cold burst forth.

Domain of Cold Ice!

Despite appearing quite relaxed on the surface, Hu Mengyu had watched Pretty Girl's battle with Wang Han and dared not take things lightly, choosing to utilize their power at the Domain level right from the start.

Those who dared to step up to the challenge naturally had confidence. The Ice Phoenix branch was of the First level Bloodline, and she herself was a mighty warrior at the Demon King Peak level.

Her understanding of Pretty Girl was even more profound and clear than that of the Peacock Demon Clan, having witnessed Pretty Girl compete in elite competitions at the Ancestral Court. She knew that Pretty Girl had only recently reached the Demon King Level, and with her own peak state and no less distinguished bloodline, she felt assured.

But in the next moment, her expression changed. Her Domain of Cold Ice did envelop both her and Pretty Girl, attempting to freeze Pretty Girl with the rapidly dropping temperature. However, as her Domain was unleashed, indifferent to the chill affecting the spectators below, the scenery blurred, and when it cleared again, she found herself mid-air.

That meant, while she was exerting her Domain, both she and her Domain were teleported into the air by Pretty Girl. It looked as though they were still facing each other in combat, but Pretty Girl had somehow brought her along into the sky using space elements.

Nevertheless, Hu Mengyu's combat experience was extremely rich. Although she was taken aback by the opponent's control over space, she didn't hesitate at all. Every bit of water element in the air instantly turned into ice needles, centering on Pretty Girl's body, and shot out in a burst.

Pretty Girl floated silently there, her body surrounded by strands of silver light. As the ice needles passed through that shimmering silver, they seemed to lose their way, turning back around and flying towards Hu Mengyu instead.

Heaven Shifting!

"Solidify!" Hu Mengyu shouted coldly, and the ice needles stalled in their flight. The next instant, all the ice needles exploded almost simultaneously. With a potent force of explosion, all the space around Pretty Girl was sealed off.

Hu Mengyu was confident that her Cultivation base was definitely above Pretty Girl's. If she was no match in element control, she would overpower with strength instead.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

But in the center of that explosion, Pretty Girl had vanished into thin air.

A flicker of shock passed through Hu Mengyu's eyes. Impossible! Her own Ice Explosion had surely shattered the surrounding space; how could she possibly have teleported away?

What she didn't know was whether the Pretty Girl she'd just seen was real at all?

In the void, silhouettes of Pretty Girl materialized out of thin air, surrounding Hu Mengyu on all sides. Each Pretty Girl raised a hand, each drawing forth a silver ribbon of light, so for a moment, the sky was filled with splendid silver light and shadow. The ice element was instantly teleported away, creating a vacuum of ice element within these silver ribbons.

Hu Mengyu's pupils contracted, and her wings flapped violently behind her, drawing on her primordial bloodline. Bits of True Spirit Ice drifted out from the phoenix wings, freezing the space they passed through. She herself also dashed into that layer of ice in an instant.

Pretty Girl clapped her hands together, "Seal!" Her crisp voice was clearly heard by everyone present.

Then they saw the originally soft ribbons of light suddenly transform into solid silver pillars, and with a loud "bang," Hu Mengyu's body collided with a pillar and was rebounded back. She even let out a scream as a torn wound appeared on her body.

The silver pillars were not just silver in color; they also bore a profound blackness. That was the trace left by the slicing of space. Oddly enough, the normally non-stable spatial slices had now formed columnar shapes, creating a cage that enclosed the Ice Phoenix, Hu Mengyu.

Hu Mengyu furiously launched assaults, but she could not harness the external ice element at the moment; all ice elements were completely separated from her by the spatial elements. She could only rely on her own Lifebound Ice Spirit to attack. Yet the Spatial Cage was incredibly robust. Members of the Peacock Demon Clan present could feel each spatial cage's pillar absorbing the external space elements to replenish itself. Despite shaking from the impacts, they continued to confine Hu Mengyu within, preventing her escape.

Even the cage had certain Heaven Shifting properties, dissipating the powerful impact forces.

Pretty Girl simply floated above that cage, the silver ribbons gently whipping the cage continually to maintain its current state.

A lofty Peacock imprisoning a proud Phoenix.

This scene caused many of the older generation of the Peacock Demon Clan to be moved to tears.

The Peacock Demon Clan and the Phoenix Demon Clan have always been mortal enemies. Seeing their nemesis trapped like a bird in a cage, how could they not be moved to tears?

This scene also led the Peacock Demon Clan members present to start accepting this new clan leader for the first time in their hearts. Strength is always the most important thing in the Monster Clan.

Standing atop the cage, she slowly descended, landing on the high platform. Although true powerhouses could see that to maintain the existence of that cage, Pretty Girl had to continually reinforce it with space power, and that killing the Ice Phoenix Demon King Hu Mengyu inside was not easy, this was still an intensely thrilling spectacle for the Peacock Demon Clan.

Peacock standing on Phoenix, this was a long-held anticipation, and now, it was unfolding right before their eyes.

The Demon Kings of the Phoenix Tribe are not ordinary Demon King Level fighters, but Pretty Girl had defeated one in a short time, indicating that although she had just undergone Tribulation, she was definitely a top existence even among Demon King Level fighters, strong not merely because she could suppress her own clan's bloodlines but because she was genuinely powerful.

Pretty Girl's age wasn't a secret; even now, she was not yet twenty years old. A Demon King under twenty—this seemed to be unprecedented in the history of the Peacock Demon Clan, especially one so powerful. If the Ancestral Court was too distant, and the Ancestral Elite Combat only boosted her fame so that the nobles of Jiali City could widely recognize it, then now, in front of everyone's eyes, two battles against Demon Kings had fully demonstrated her strength, and more importantly, her potential! She had undoubtedly proven her Emperor's Posture to all the strong ones.

How many young powerhouses with such profound background could there be among the entire Monster Clan and Spirit Clan? Merely a few dozen, and while not every one of them would become Emperors, it was certain that future Emperors would emerge from among them. For the Peacock Demon Clan, which hadn't seen such a figure with the Emperor's Posture in centuries, she brought true hope.

Ice Phoenix Demon King Hu Mengyu was still struggling furiously, but no matter how she struggled, she was never able to break free from the spatial restraints. Although a Demon King's combat power endures, being continuously suppressed and drained by the space elements meant that she would eventually run out of strength and fail for real.
