The Stone of the Ice Goddess and the Stone of the God of Fire emitted a dazzling light at the same time, and the magic circle seemed to be activated. A ball of red and blue intertwined light rose from the center of the circle, and the light kept flickering. Suddenly, the world around them seemed to have changed. The red and blue disappeared at the same time, and everything became faint. Nian Bing and Hillard shook at the same time. They each covered their heads and fell to the ground with a pained expression on their faces. The magic circle on the ground had turned into a light purple color, and every magic symbol in it was slowly rotating around the magic circle. The world in the eyes of Nian Bing and Hillard had turned completely purple. Everything was so real, yet so illusory.
Nian Bing was constantly panting, and big drops of sweat fell down. Although he was in extreme pain, there was a smile on his face. It was a happy smile. Even the Dragon Summoner was tricked by him, so how could he not be excited? The magic in his body was still there, but his mental strength had been completely extracted. He could only rely on his basic consciousness to control his body. For a magician, losing mental strength meant losing control of magic. If he chanted a spell without permission, it was very likely that his magic would backfire on him. However, these were not important to Nian Bing. He had already achieved what he wanted to achieve. Looking at Hillard, who was in more pain than himself, Nian Bing forced a smile. He forced himself to calm down and stood up while enduring the weakness. "You didn't expect this, did you, Senior Hillard? I think you certainly didn't expect me to use such a magic circle to deal with you. In fact, when I was drawing this magic circle, even I wasn't sure if it would succeed. "
Previously. The moment the magic circle burst forth with power, Hillard had already realized that something was wrong, but it was too late to react. A needle-like feeling instantly entered his brain, and the powerful mental strength that he had always been proud of was flowing out like lightning. His control of his mental strength was completely gone, and his brain was in severe pain. He fell to the ground. At this time, listening to Nian Bing's words, he had recovered some of his consciousness, but it was not that his strength had recovered. Instead, it was because his mental power had almost completely disappeared. His brain no longer hurt, and a strong sense of dizziness kept attacking him. Hilard was very regretful. He had never thought that he would be pecked in the eye by a swallow today after fighting swallows all day long. Hua Zha also stood up and looked at the magic array with purple light. His body trembled. "Is this the legendary restriction array?"
Nian Bing smiled faintly. He said, "Senior, you didn't expect this, right? Actually, this formation isn't very useful. It can only suppress the mental strength of the sentries within a radius of three thousand feet. As long as they walk out of this range, they will naturally recover. It's a formation that suppresses the strength of a magician. However, the biggest advantage of this formation is to deal with white people like you. White people don't have magic, and the mental magic that you are good at is completely transformed from your mental strength. Under the effect of this magic circle, I'm afraid that your powerful mental magic can no longer be used. Even summoning requires a mental connection. Without your mental strength, even if you are a powerful dragon summoner, you are now no different from an ordinary person. Am I right? "
Hilard resisted the discomfort of his body and snorted. "Yes, I am no different from an ordinary person, but you also said that as long as I walk out of the range of three thousand feet, my mental strength can be restored. This magic circle restricts my magic, and it also restricts yours. I don't believe that you dare to use magic now. Without the control of your mental strength, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I won't be the one to die."
Nian Bing smiled. "Yes, Senior, you are right. I really don't dare to use magic now. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, we will die together. Senior Hillard, I've always been kind and respectful, but I didn't expect that you would want to kill me for your own selfish reasons. Originally, I shouldn't have made things difficult for you for Kitty's sake, but I don't want to be hunted down by a powerful summoner who can summon dragons in the future. After all, good luck doesn't come easily. Senior, you lost today because you were kind to me after you wanted to kill me. We don't have any magic left, so I think it's time for us to start eating meat. I wonder how long you can last under my sword? You should remember that I am a chef. As a chef, my physical strength is much stronger than ordinary magicians. "
Nian Bing raised the Sigh of the Snow Goddess and the Roar of the Fire God. She walked toward Hilard step by step. At this moment, her heart was filled with killing intent. Although Hilard was Kitty's father, if she didn't kill him, he would definitely be killed by him. In order to survive, killing Hilard was the only choice.
Feeling the aura of the two divine blades, Hilard's face became more and more unpleasant. Indeed, for a summoner, the most terrible thing was that their mental strength was limited. However, magic that could limit mental strength did not exist at all. Only the forbidden magic circle in the legends could do it. In the face of this guy, who was only a supreme magician, who could draw such a lost magic circle, he was the public enemy of all white people. As long as he existed, white summoners would be completely restricted. But now, how could Hilard resist? The loss of a large amount of mental strength caused him to suffer much more than Nian Bing. When Nian Bing was drawing the magic array, he had already used up a lot of mental strength, so the loss of mental strength did not cause too much of a burden to him. However, it was different for Hillard. As a summoner, mental strength was his lifeline. Regardless of whether it was summoning spells or essence magic, mental strength was the foundation of all spells.
Nian Bing smiled slightly and suddenly stopped. "Senior, I think that if you don't know the name of this magic circle before you die, even if you go to hell, you will regret it very much. This Magic Formation is an ancient Magic Formation that I accidentally found in an ancient book. When I saw this Magic Formation, it was already incomplete. The only thing missing was the most crucial part to activate it. In order to research how to activate this Magic Formation, I devised countless theories. In the end, I discovered that this Magic Formation requires the Magic Elements to be in a state of equilibrium to activate. My Ice and Fire Affinity just happens to be able to reach that level. However, this magic circle attracted me only because of its complexity and characteristics. I did not expect to use it. After all, limiting mental strength is not good for me. However, when you were about to kill me just now, I suddenly thought of it. Isn't this magic circle the nemesis of a summoner like you? As long as you step into this magical area before casting your summoning spell, everything will become easier. You must remember to ask for Chu Li's help. Remember, this magic circle's name is Eternal Sleep. It means Eternal Sleep. Senior, don't worry, I will do my best to take care of Kitty. There is one thing that I want to reiterate. I do not have the kind of feelings that you think I have for Kitty. I really only see her as a little sister. " As he said this, he raised the sword in his hand.
"Wait a minute." Hillard suddenly shouted. His weak body wanted to dodge backwards, but because of his weak mental strength, he could not use his strength. His physical condition was indeed much worse than Nian Bing's. Nian Bing looked at Hillard. He was not in a hurry now. After all, he did not want to go back to Talu City after killing Hillard, because he did not know how to face Kitty. After all, he had lost a family, so he naturally knew the pain of losing a father. However, the situation now forced him to do this. If he did not kill, he would be killed. It was a simple choice. There was no need to think too much about it.
Seeing that Nian Bing had stopped moving, Hillard smiled bitterly and said, "Kid, you are smarter than I thought. You are also more scheming. Magic is indeed different from martial arts. Under special circumstances, even the strongest magician will feel pain. However, this magic formation of yours is not without its flaws. I think its range of control is not as big as you said. Moreover, if I were a mage like you, I could use my powerful magic to charge out of this magic formation. Once you reach the realm of a Magician, even if you don't have any mental strength, it's not like you can't control magic. From a certain point of view, this magic formation of yours can completely deal with us summoners. To be honest, I don't want to die. I have a wife and a daughter that I love. If you let me go now, I can swear that I will not hurt you. Not now, not in the future. How about it? " When the crisis of life was over, Hillard bowed his head. He was not a person who was afraid of death, but he did not want his wife to lose her husband and his daughter to be fatherless. When he thought of his wife and daughter's sad faces, he had no choice but to bow his head to Nian Bing. As a proud dragon summoner, this was the first time in his life that Hillard admitted defeat.
Nian Bing was stunned. Hillard was indeed a powerful magician. He was right. The distance of ten thousand feet that she mentioned was just a joke. With her current magic of the same origin of ice and fire, she could not support such a long distance. The magic circle could only control a radius of a few hundred feet. Moreover, the drawbacks that Hillard pointed out were also very good. Long Zhi once told Nian Bing that this magic circle was completely ineffective against magicians above the level of a magician. This was because, after reaching the level of a magician, although they could not completely control magic after losing their mental strength, they could still control the direction of magic. As long as the magic circle was destroyed or all the enemies were killed, everything would be meaningless. If not for this, Nian Bing would have used this magic circle to find a priest of the Ice Goddess.
"Senior, on what basis do you want me to believe your words? Even if you are a trustworthy person, the Wen Yu Game is very easy to play. You only said that you won't kill me, but you didn't say that your people and pets won't kill me. As a powerful summoner, you have too many ways to deal with me. I'm only one person, a little magician and a little chef. I can't take the risk. " Nian Bing looked at Hillard. In a situation where Hillard was not a threat, she spoke her mind. For the sake of her own life, the best way was to silence Hillard. After all, when she and Hillard left, no one saw them. As long as she killed Hillard and left Talu City, even if the sentries suspected her, there would be no evidence.
Hillard said angrily, "Are you questioning my words? Who am I? Why would I do such a despicable thing? "
Nian Bing said calmly, "As the saying goes, the world is unpredictable. In the past, I risked my life to save Kitty. But today, aren't you going to kill me? You can change your mind very quickly, but I don't want to treat my life as a game. How about this, you swear that you will not use any means to take revenge on me or hurt me as long as you are alive. Otherwise, the white race will be completely destroyed. Only then can I believe you. " For Caucasians like summoners, it was useless to make them swear an oath of divine retribution before leaving. They hated the heavens, and Hillard's Achilles' heel was his people.
Hillard's face changed. "Nian Bing, you are so cruel! Fine, fine, fine, I swear. But you have to be careful. A person who is too despicable will not end well. "
Nian Bing smiled faintly and said, "I don't think I'm despicable in any way. I'm just trying to protect myself better. Is that wrong? I need to say something. I still have a lot to do. Senior, I still want to go back to Talu City to participate in the last competition. Please hurry up and swear. " He smiled. At this time, his heart became lighter. Not killing Hillard was naturally the best choice.
Hillard snorted hatefully, pointed one finger to the sky, and said in a deep voice, "I, Hillard, swear that if Nian Bing does not hurt me today, I will not use any means to hurt him in my lifetime. If I violate this oath, let the white race disappear from history." In the process of swearing, his voice was trembling. It was obvious that the anger in his heart had reached the extreme.
Nian Bing felt a burst of pride in her heart. To be able to force a dragon summoner to swear not to hurt him, she was afraid that no one had ever done it before. Just as he was about to remove the magic array, a sudden change occurred. The valley shook violently, and the rumbling sound continued. The purple magic array emitted a purple light. In an instant, the whole valley was shrouded in purple. This time, the power of the magic array really spread to a distance of ten thousand feet. However, it only lasted for a moment. Just as Nian Bing and Hillard felt that their spiritual power had begun to recover due to the disappearance of the magic array, the ground suddenly split open. A huge crack ran through the whole valley, and a black and gray aura rose to the sky. Waves of cold evil spread out.
Nian Bing instinctively pounced on Hillard, grabbed him, and pulled him aside, just in time to avoid a crack that spread out from behind Hillard. Before the two of them could celebrate, there was a loud bang. In the violent tremor, they could no longer control their bodies and tumbled in the air toward the bottomless abyss. In the process of falling, Nian Bing clasped Hillard's arm tightly, put the two swords into the ring, and summoned his [Xuanji Sword] with the spiritual power that had just recovered.
Darkness swallowed Nian Bing and Hillard's figures. The black fog was full of coldness. The valley, which had few living creatures, had now become a land of death. Whether it was plants or animals, they had all gradually melted in the black fog. The death valley gradually formed, and there seemed to be countless mournful howls spiraling in the valley. It was an unusually cold evil power, an incomparably huge evil aura.
Taru City. Kitty was sitting on the rostrum, bored, and eating the food sent by the staff. As she ate, she muttered discontentedly, "Why isn't Daddy back yet? Didn't he say that he was going to walk around and stretch his body and would be back soon? Where did Big Brother Nian Bing go? He was still here just now. He should be resting. The competition is about to start. "
"Kitty, eat less. If you eat more, you'll become a little fat Kitty." Arc Light's playful voice suddenly sounded. Kitty looked up at the handsome Devil Marshal and snorted, "Little broken snake, you're the fat one. I'm a beautiful girl Kitty. Is there anyone with a more perfect figure than me? Hmph. If you say that my figure is not good, I'll let Daddy teach you a lesson. I heard that you like to be attacked by spiritual magic. Hehe, these days, besides the competition, I'm so bored. Little broken snake, I want to go to your barracks to play. Can you take me there? "
Looking at Kitty's malicious eyes, Arc Light broke out in cold sweat. He would rather rush into the Fei Army than become enemies with this girl Kitty. This little witch really gave him a headache. "No need. Kitty, uncle will take you to other places to play some other day. There are many fun places in Taru City. Tonight's competition will be more exciting than the one during the day. The final winner will be decided. Moreover, that boy called Nian Bing is a magician. Cooking with magic, the night will be even more gorgeous. "
Sure enough, at the mention of Nian Bing, Kitty's attention was immediately diverted. A smile appeared on her pretty face, "Yes! Yes! Big Brother Nian Bing is the best at cooking. Today, he will definitely be the champion. "
At this time, in a corner of Taru Square, the vampire Ping Chao and his little master Youyou were eating the food they had just bought from Hualong Restaurant. While eating, Youyou said with dissatisfaction, "Big Brother Ping Chao. Why can't we eat this? I want to eat the food made by the chefs on the round platform. The food they make is very special. It will definitely be delicious, right? "
Ping Chao whispered, "Youyou, don't make trouble. We should go back. Otherwise, if Moon Lord blames us, I won't be able to afford it! " Suddenly, Ping Chao's whole body shook. He looked into the distance and his eyes flashed with blood. His body slightly convulsed because of excitement, "This, this is the aura of our clansmen. Little Master, this is the aura of our clansmen! "
Youyou was stunned for a moment and said, "Our clansmen? You mean those powerful existences who are wandering outside? Didn't Father say that they were all sealed at that time? "
"No," Although Ping Chao tried his best to lower his voice, the excitement in his heart was hard to conceal. "Little Master, you don't know. After the war, although the vast majority of people were sealed, there were still some powerful and clever clansmen who escaped the ultimate seal. Although they were sealed to a certain extent, the seal was not firm and could be removed under certain circumstances. Just like Sir Moon Lord, who is one of the Magicians, Sir has always been looking for these low-level sealed clansmen. Only by gathering more power can we succeed! Youyou, let's go and take a look. I can already feel that the aura is getting stronger and stronger. If we can contact these people who have removed the seal, it will definitely be a great contribution. Our strength will also be greatly enhanced. "
Youyou stuffed the snack into her mouth and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go and take a look. I just don't know which clan they are from. It would be best if they are from the same clan as me." The two quietly slipped out of the crowd. After a while, they disappeared from the Taru Square. Not long after, a black shadow rose into the sky and flew towards the distance.
The sky gradually darkened. The Taru Square was once again filled with people. As the final round of the finals, the people's emotions had reached the highest point. All the chefs who participated in the finals slowly stepped onto the rotating round table. Little Tian looked around, but he couldn't see Nian Bing's figure. He frowned and thought in his heart, "Where did Nian Bing go? He will never be afraid of fighting. But the competition is about to start, why hasn't he come yet?" If Nian Bing didn't come, the Magician would undoubtedly be the champion. However, Little Tian didn't want to win the championship in this way. He very much wanted to have the final duel with Nian Bing. He wanted to win with his own ability.
Time passed by minute by minute. Fatso Hua was also waiting for the final duel. He had deliberately delayed the duel, but Nian Bing still didn't appear. Helpless, he could only announce that Nian Bing had given up on the final round. The competition officially began. Without Nian Bing's presence, Little Tian was not interested in the competition. However, with his culinary skills and the advantages he had accumulated in the previous two rounds, he easily became the champion of the Hua Long Culinary Challenge. Momo was also an eight-star chef in three rounds, and she was the runner-up. Another outstanding chef replaced Nian Bing's position and unexpectedly obtained the third place. The prize money and the certificate to participate in the God of Cooking Competition were quickly handled by the contestants. The Hua Long Cooking Competition that lasted for three days finally ended. The celebration in Taru City also drew an imperfect end. Everything returned to normal. The next Hua Long Cooking Competition would be held three years later.
Little Tian walked down from the rotating round table and angrily slammed his hands on it. He roared to himself, "Nian Bing, why didn't you come? What does this kind of championship mean to me? “
"Don't be angry." Momo's gentle voice rang out from behind Little Tian. She walked to his side and held his large, fair hand. "There must be a reason why Nianbing didn't come. Perhaps something happened to him. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have not come. However, although you didn't have the chance to fight with him, there will be chances in the future. After all, there is still the God of Cooking Competition, right? " “
If Nian Bing saw how intimate Momo and Lil 'Tian were, he would definitely be shocked. Lil' Tian looked at Momo, and the anger in his eyes subsided a little. "Forget it. The competition is over anyway. There's no point in saying anything more. I hope to see him at the God of Cookery Competition. Before you defeat him, you won't be the number one chef in the younger generation. Momo, in a few days, I want to stay in the Green Bamboo Forest for a while. Can you follow me there? Master once said that the toughness of bamboo is the most suitable for practicing Tai Chi Hands. I want to practice Tai Chi Hands to a higher realm before I meet Nian Bing. “
Momo's gentle face blushed. She nodded lightly and said, "Wherever you go, I will be there. Let's go. Let's go and say goodbye to the elders. Then, we will set off. " “
Little Tian nodded. She gazed into the distant horizon and sighed softly, "Nianbing, you're the greatest opponent I've faced since I started cultivating. You're also the opponent I desire to fight the most. I hope nothing happens to you. Let's meet soon. " After saying that, he looked at his hands that were more beautiful than a woman's. His eyes flashed, and a faint yellow aura flashed.
Darkness. The surroundings were completely dark. He clenched his teeth and endured the pain in his body. Nian Bing was trying to sit up straight, but the sudden violent tremors from the ground made him and Hillard unable to resist at all. Although the Eternal Sleep Magic Array helped him to restrain Hillard, it also caused their mental strength to reach the lowest point. In the face of such a sudden change, they had no chance to react at all. Fortunately, Nian Bing had pulled out his Hexagram Blade in time when he was falling into the abyss. Using the same source of ice and fire, he used a short-distance teleportation spell to reduce the speed of his fall. That was why he didn't fall to his death when he fell into the abyss. However, the excessive depletion of energy had also pushed Nian Bing's spiritual power to the brink of collapse. If not for the tenacity and perseverance that he had cultivated over many years, he would have died. If he didn't cultivate his mental strength, he would have fainted.
Hillard also remained conscious. His current situation was much better than Nian Bing's. He sat not far from Nian Bing and quickly recovered his mental strength. He knew very well that only by winning the mental strength track and field competition could he face the unknown. The strong evil aura underground filled his heart with uneasiness.
Sharp and mournful cries rang out almost continuously. Each cry was louder than the last. Nian Bing took a deep breath and touched the wounds on his body that weren't too deep. He forced himself to sit cross-legged and used a simple water healing technique to treat the wounds on his body. His heart was now full of gratitude to Garamandis. If Garamandis hadn't dug the hell-like baptism, he was afraid that his bones would have been broken during the last fall. It was his tough body that saved his life. Of course, there was also the Hexagram Blade.
"Boy, are you dead yet?" Hillard's cold voice sounded. It was so dark in the abyss that Nian Bing could only determine Hillard's current location by sensing his aura.
"Thanks to you, I'm still alive. Senior, how are you? Are you hurt? The magic array is gone. Your mental strength should have recovered a little. I hope you don't forget your oath. " In a dangerous place, he didn't want to have a powerful enemy by his side. However, he believed that as long as Hillard was not a fool, he would not harm him. After all, in a situation where there was an unknown crisis, the only rational choice was to cooperate. Recently, he was really unlucky to have encountered so many things while participating in a competition. Not to mention the two big chrysanthemums in the north and the south, the threat that Hillard brought to him was already fatal. It was not easy to control Hillard with a little cleverness, but he encountered this situation. Why am I always the one who gets hurt?
Hillard was silent for a moment before he said, "My mental strength has recovered by about 50%. Your magic array did a lot of damage to me, and it will take some time for me to fully recover." “
Nian Bing could no longer detect any hostility from Hillard's voice. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Senior, where are we? Was that an earthquake? " “
Hillard snorted and said, "What earthquake? This disaster was caused by your magic array. Don't you feel that this place is full of cold evil? There must be something evil here. If I'm not wrong, your magic array must have opened some kind of seal that was imposed here, which will cause the mountains to collapse. As for the consequences of the ceremony, it is hard to say. " “
Nian Bing sucked in a breath of cold air. "Senior, are you saying that I've undone the seal on some evil magical beast? You should be most familiar with all kinds of magical beasts. Is there any solution? " “
Hillard sighed and said, "There is no solution now. Let's wait until we recover our strength. However, it may not be a magical beast sealed here. It may be a human."
"A human? A human can be sealed underground? " Nian Bing's voice was full of surprise. Hillard said indifferently, "Nothing is impossible. This aura is so evil, I am afraid it is a very ominous thing." “
Nian Bing's mind raced as she hurriedly said, "Senior, don't you have a summoned beast? Since this place is so dangerous, why don't you use your treasures to bring people out? " “
Hillard said, "Do you think I don't want to? However, the evil aura here is too strong. I am afraid that my pets can't bear it. We don't know how high this place is from the outside. Once my flying pets are affected by the evil aura and drop us, do you still have spatial magic scrolls to support us from falling to our deaths? " Until now, he had not realized that Nian Bing was not using scrolls, but real spatial magic.
Hearing the words spatial magic, Nian Bing was suddenly energized. Yes, she could use camouflage. With wind magic, she might be able to fly out. With her magic power, she should have no problem flying to an altitude of tens of thousands of meters.
