Ou Xuan's miserable appearance caused joy to emerge on the faces of the bald youth and the genius surnamed Li.
In their opinion, this situation meant that they could defeat their opponent.
If they could lose one of the five regions' young masters, their chances of obtaining the water droplets would be much higher. How could they not be happy with such an outcome?
However, while they were rejoicing, Zhao Mou, who was closely watching Ou Xuan's movements, was not happy at all.
Indeed, on the surface, it seemed that they had the upper hand. However, he faintly felt that the situation was not as optimistic as it seemed.
It seemed that …
Zhao Mou's eyes involuntarily fell on the water below his feet. The clear water that existed because of the water droplets did not seem to contain any killing intent.
However, when he looked at the clear water, Zhao Mou's eyes changed drastically. As for this sudden change, it became extremely ugly.
He knew that the Underworld Ice Energy was despicable, so how could he not know its advantages?
However, the instant his expression changed, he clearly saw that Ou Xuan, who had retreated dozens of feet, had already pressed his palms on the water. His sleeves were burned.
Along with his chilling voice, an extremely cold aura surged wildly from under the surface of the water.
"I gave you a chance. Since you don't know what's good for you, then get out of this ancient ruin!"
"Boom …!"
Under the calm surface of the water, the Dark Ice Qi surged like a tornado. Everywhere it passed, everything was frozen. It turned into sharp ice spears that flashed with cold light. They suddenly rose from the water and pierced toward the three people of the opposite side.
Fortunately, Zhao Mou had expected this. When the icicles suddenly rushed out, his flame spirit tattoo rushed out and barely blocked them.
However, while he could block them, the bald youth and the genius surnamed Li were not so lucky. Not only did they not react in time, but the ice spears that suddenly rushed out from under the ice could not be blocked by the spirit flames that they hurriedly activated!
"Ah …!"
"No!"
In the next instant, two painful cries rang out. When one looked over, one could see that the two ice spears were stained with dark red blood.
The bald youth's situation was not bad. Only his right arm was stabbed. However, the genius surnamed Li was stabbed in the abdomen and was bleeding profusely.
"Zhao Mou, what's going on?!"
With his body injured, how could the bald youth remain calm? He shouted loudly.
Hearing this, Zhao Mou could only helplessly reply, "The Dark Ice Qi fears fire, but when used in water or ice, it is extremely tyrannical!"
"What?!"
The bald young man was shocked. Beneath their feet was water. Didn't this mean that this was Ou Xuan's battle heaven?!
How could Zhao Mou have the heart to say anything else? His heart was filled with anger and regret.
He had actually forgotten such an important point. How could he possibly fight with Ou Xuan in this area of water? Even if the three of them worked together, it would not be enough.
In the next moment, the only thought left in Zhao Mou's mind was to run. He no longer had any thoughts of snatching the water droplet. Under such circumstances, as long as he could escape and not be forced to crush the talisman and leave, it would be a great blessing!
Seeing Zhao Mou immediately flee, how could the bald youth and the genius surnamed Li not know that the situation was critical? Therefore, they immediately fled madly, not daring to stay in the slightest.
However, just as they were frantically fleeing, Ou Xuan's pair of ice-cold eyes had already slowly lifted up. He did not look at the water droplet. Instead, he first locked onto the three people who were escaping and gently curled the corners of his mouth into a mocking smile.
You want to run? Can you escape?!
As soon as the mocking smile appeared, Ou Xuan's eyes suddenly focused. Suddenly, a huge mysterious spiritual inscription slowly appeared in mid-air above his head.
The moment the spiritual inscription appeared, an even more majestic cold air surged violently, and a continuous cracking sound could be heard. Looking over, the water below Ou Xuan's feet had already begun to freeze. Furthermore, the area of the ice was continuously expanding, approaching the surrounding water.
"Heavenly Frigid Rune!"
Soon after, Ou Xuan's low shout was heard again. At the same time, he slammed his palm down again. Although it was still a palm, with the support of the spiritual inscription, the power of his palm was too great.
Under the layer of ice, a giant ice crystal hand gradually formed. At a certain moment, it suddenly broke through the layer of ice and blasted out forcefully!
"Bang …!"
The giant ice crystal hand solidly hit the bald youth's chest. Even though the bald youth had put up a defense and had even activated the spiritual inscription, it was still difficult for him to resist.
"Pu …!"
Boiling hot blood violently spurted out from the bald youth's mouth. When he was smashed backwards, his heart was already filled with regret. If he had known that Ou Xuan's Dark Ice Qi was so powerful in the water, he would not have been able to resist!
No matter what, he would not have had any thoughts about the water droplet!
However, it was clearly too late for regret. The giant ice crystal hand had already slammed down again without any mercy.
The bald youth knew that if he continued to stay, he would only end up being severely injured by Ou Xuan. Therefore, he could only helplessly crush the spiritual inscription and teleport away.
Seeing the bald youth crush the spiritual inscription, Ou Xuan's cold smile grew wider. Then, his cold gaze locked onto the genius surnamed Li and Zhao Mou.
He did not expect that his gaze would cause the genius surnamed Li to crush the spiritual inscription. However, when he thought about it, the genius surnamed Li was already injured. Even the bald youth who was in perfect condition could only crush the spiritual inscription. Even if he resisted, the result would not have changed.
However, the genius surnamed Li had taken the initiative to crush the spiritual inscription, saving Ou Xuan some effort. He immediately sneered at the fleeing Zhao Mou. "Haha … today, none of you will escape!"
Hearing those words, Zhao Mou's heart was filled with deep regret. In fact, he should be the one who was the most regretful.
This was because he had long known that Ou Xuan cultivated the Dark Ice Qi. He also knew that it was domineering and weak. However, just now, he did not know why he had forgotten about its domineering aspects. Wasn't that the same as courting death?
However, Zhao Mou knew that there was no use in regretting. At this point, Ou Xuan would not let him go no matter what.
However, he could not stop here. He wanted to be promoted to the Great Spirit Region's young master. If he was eliminated like this, how could he have the chance to become a young master?
Therefore, Zhao Mou gritted his teeth and shouted at Ou Xuan behind him. "Ou Xuan, spare me this time. In this Profound Fire Holy Palace, I will not go against you again!"
"Haha … you think you have the qualifications to say such arrogant words now?"
Ou Xuan sneered in response. In his opinion, the situation was already decided. He could force the genius out of the spiritual inscription and then take the water bead. Why should he listen to him?
Therefore, after sneering, Ou Xuan did not hesitate and once again activated the spiritual inscription. With the support of the spiritual inscription, he slapped the layer of ice under his feet.
"Boom …!"
Under the water, the Dark Ice Qi and the power of the spiritual inscription surged crazily. When they reached the water under Zhao Mou's feet, they turned into a giant fist and blasted out!
"Ou Xuan, you and I will not rest until one of us is dead!"
In such a situation, Zhao Mou's expression was extremely ferocious. This was because the other party had no intention of holding back at all. He wanted to force him to crush the spiritual inscription and leave.
With a shout, Zhao Mou activated the flame spiritual inscription. This was not because he had only condensed this spiritual inscription, but because this spiritual inscription had the strongest restraining effect on Ou Xuan.
And as expected, because of this flame spiritual inscription, he finally blocked Ou Xuan's attack with difficulty.
However, this situation made Ou Xuan's face contort with a strong sense of mockery. "Final struggle!"
After the mocking laughter, Ou Xuan raised his hand again. He had decided to launch the final attack on Zhao Mou.
Zhao Mou also knew this. He knew that he could block once or twice, but it would be difficult for him to block a third or fourth time.
But he was really unwilling. He still wanted to become the young master of the Great Spirit Region. How could he be eliminated here?!
At the same time, from a corner that neither of them paid attention to, a ghost-like figure flashed out and headed straight for the water bead that seemed to have been completely ignored.
The figure appeared without a sound and did not attract anyone's attention. However, just as he was about to touch the water droplet, an extremely furious roar resounded, accompanied by an Underworld Ice Qi that could freeze everything.
"You're courting death!"
