Even so, Duan Muyu did not reveal any flaws. She adjusted her strategy in an instant and prepared to snatch the attack!
Falling Leaves of Autumn and One Mountain Like Leaf, this was the most common and most threatening combo move. It was also Duan Muyu's original plan. However, just like the Falling Leaves of Autumn, this powerful and overbearing move needed time to charge up. Everyone knew about this routine, but it was still impossible to defend against it because no one knew where and when the attack of One Mountain Like Leaf would come from.
The problem now was that she was affected by the bone-chilling cold of the Painted Ground Prison. Duan Muyu discovered that the vital energy in her body was beginning to show signs of stagnation. If this continued, she would not be able to use her Mountain Leaf again.
Instead of sitting on the ground and waiting for death, she might as well give it her all.
A thin iron leaf appeared above Leng Leng's head out of thin air. It pressed down with an incomparably heavy and majestic aura. One Mountain Like Leaf!
Boom! The iron leaf was only the size of a palm, but it left a clear leaf print the size of half a basketball court on the ground. The depth of the print was as high as a person's height. It was astounding.
"Ah!" Lingshan and the others screamed when they saw this. Didn't this mean that Leng Leng was crushed to death by the One Mountain Like Leaf?
However, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief because Leng Leng had already rushed out from the leaf print. Although she was obviously injured, judging from her current state, the injury should not be too serious.
"Is this guy made of iron?" Someone could not help but exclaim. The others were also confused. They had seen the power of One Mountain Like Leaf with their own eyes. A Foundation Perfection Perfected expert was blown away on the spot. Even if Leng Leng's strength was stronger than a Foundation Perfection Perfected expert, she should not be able to jump around after taking on the One Mountain Like Leaf. This was too ridiculous!
Xue Jianfeng snorted when he heard that. Most people could not understand the scene just now, but as a Golden Core realm expert, he saw it clearly. Duan Muyu's One Mountain Like Leaf was indeed powerful. A normal Foundation Perfection Perfected expert would be courting death if he took it head-on. It was the same for Leng Leng.
However, Coold Leng did not take the attack head-on. Instead, she had already stepped on the ground and shrunk herself before the mountain-like leaf came crashing down. Instead of saying that the mountain-like leaf's power had landed on her body, it would be more accurate to say that most of the power had been absorbed by the ground. That was why she was able to sustain such a light injury.
Xue Jianfeng secretly felt that it was a pity. He couldn't wait for Coold to be beaten to death by Duan Muyu. He didn't expect that she actually escaped this calamity.
"Oh no!" Duan Muyu's heart skipped a beat. She had already used up most of her True Qi against Knowledge of the Autumn and Mountain of Fallen Leaves. She had bet most of her chips on this. At the very least, she had to severely injure her opponent before she could take control of the situation.
An opening! Leng Leng's eyes lit up. Without any hesitation, she rushed forward and gave him a head-on kick. With a bang, Duan Muyu was sent flying.
"What a pity." Lin Yi shook his head slightly as he witnessed the scene. Leng Leng had grasped the opportunity very well. Duan Muyu's momentary absent-mindedness had indeed exposed a small opening. However, Leng Leng was affected by her Prison Drawing, so her speed was obviously slower than usual. This gave her opponent a chance to defend himself hastily. Otherwise, the outcome of the battle would have been decided.
Leng Leng also felt that it was a pity. Duan Muyu, on the other hand, could not help but secretly feel lucky. Even though she had already used her arms to block her chest before the opponent's kick landed on her, and her protective Qi had been strengthened to its peak in an instant, she still received quite a bit of impact. A thin layer of frost was left on both of her arms.
In a situation like this, the longer the fight dragged on, the greater the effect of the Confinement Spell would be. Her flaw earlier was also affected by the Confinement Spell. After receiving Coold Leng's kick head-on, the freezing effect was magnified infinitely. The white frost was the symbol. At this moment, she could not even feel the existence of both her arms. They were completely frozen.
Phew! Leng Leng let out a long breath upon seeing the situation. She was about to give her opponent the final blow. Truth be told, even she could not withstand the powerful freezing effect of the Prison Drawing. If she continued to delay, she would probably follow in her opponent's footsteps.
"Should I admit defeat?" Leng Leng suddenly stopped moving. There was no enmity between her and Duan Muyu. If it was not necessary, she did not want to deal a heavy blow. Otherwise, it would not only be a matter of elimination for Duan Muyu. It was unknown whether he could fully recover from the severe injury. If there were any sequelae because of this, it would be an endless trouble.
No one knew the horror of the Prison Drawing better than herself. This degree of frostbite was not something that could be easily cured.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Duan Muyu glanced at her. A trace of determination suddenly flashed across her eyes, "The battle has just begun, isn't it?"
As she spoke, a withered leaf slowly slid out from her palm. Everyone could not help but look at each other when they saw it. Was Duan Muyu still thinking of turning the tables with the Falling Leaves in Autumn? Although his perseverance was commendable, it was too unrealistic, right?
Leng Leng was also very puzzled. However, she reacted quickly. From her standpoint, it was already benevolent of her to give her opponent the chance to admit defeat. Since Duan Muyu insisted on fighting till the end, she could only fulfill his wish!
Without another word, Leng Leng immediately gave her opponent the final blow. At this moment, both of Duan Muyu's arms were frozen numb. Even the movement of slipping out from the withered leaf seemed very clumsy, let alone fighting back.
However, before Leng Leng could land her attack, Duan Muyu's body suddenly erupted with an incomparably strong vitality. As if it had materialized, his entire body was emitting a dazzling light.
"The withered leaf … has turned green?" Lin Yi looked at the withered leaf that was slowly falling to the ground in astonishment. At this moment, it had turned emerald green and was full of vitality.
"This is the Withered Leaf Rejuvenation!" Xin Yijie exclaimed. No wonder he, the Junior Uncle who led the team at the early stage of the Gold Core Realm, was so shocked. In fact, not only him, even Bing Wuqing was visibly moved when she saw this scene.
The Withered Leaf Rejuvenation, like the Falling Leaves in Autumn, was one of the few symbolic moves of the Ye Ling Sect. However, it was never something that a Foundation Building disciple could master. In theory, only a Gold Core expert could master it. No one would have thought that Duan Muyu, who was only at the Foundation Building Great Completion, had already mastered this move!
In this way, even if this woman's strength and potential were not comparable to the shocking geniuses like Leng Leng and Ling Tianyou, there was not much difference.
