Chapter 34 Quite Envious
A serious expression appeared on the Ice Bear's face. The power of Yun Ze's attack was definitely not to be underestimated.
Its enormous body suddenly swelled up, like an inflated balloon, its size increasing dramatically!
This was the Ice Bear clan's innate soul skill!
After using this soul skill, the Ice Bear's strength and defense would be greatly enhanced. Its cultivation was already over three thousand years old, and after using this skill, its defense was even stronger than many four-thousand-year-old soul beasts. After all,
the Ice Bear's disadvantage lay in its massive size; while its strength and defense were excellent, its agility was naturally far inferior.
Bang!
The collapsing snow landed on the Ice Bear's body, and a look of pain instantly appeared on its large face. Fortunately, the attack was still within its tolerance range and not enough to completely stop or deform its movements.
However, Yun Ze's speed was far faster than the Ice Bear had imagined. As the collapsing snow hit it, Yun Ze continuously leaped back and forth on the ground, his speed suddenly increasing.
In the blink of an eye, Yun Ze had already arrived in front of the Ice Bear.
At this moment, his right fist was covered in icy frost, resembling an ice gauntlet. Combined with the ice-blue armor covering his entire right arm, he delivered a powerful punch directly to the ice bear.
The ice crystals covering Yunze's right fist were from the Ice Emperor's two ultimate techniques, the Ice Emperor's Turtle, while this punch was a close-combat technique Yunze had developed himself.
One punch, shattering the frost!
This punch sent the massive ice bear flying more than ten meters away. Furthermore, Yunze had infused the punch with hidden force, attacking both the bear's skin and internal organs.
"This kid's actual combat ability is so-so," Xiaobai murmured, watching Yunze's exchange with the ice bear.
Despite Yunze's extremely fierce attacks, he didn't actually employ many variations in his moves, relying entirely on the advantage of his technique. Without such exquisite and powerful skills, Yunze probably couldn't have achieved such an effect.
This is Yunze's biggest weakness. Although he possesses exceptional talent, top-tier innate abilities, and several powerful combat techniques, his lack of practical experience makes him severely deficient in battle.
While the Ice Bear appears to be constantly under Yunze's pressure, it hasn't actually used its full strength,
fearing it might injure Yunze .
Yunze, on the other hand, fights with increasing ferocity. His left hand is covered in ice crystals, and a sharp glint appears in his eyes. His arm guards instantly emit two streaks of icy blue light.
Yunze has already used the inscribed skill on his right arm, which, when activated, enhances the power of his next attack by 100%.
His left arm also possesses an inscribed skill, similarly possessing a powerful amplification effect.
After activating the skill on his left arm, Yunze's next attack will ignore defense. Unless the opponent's cultivation level is ten levels higher than Yunze's, all defensive measures will be rendered useless.
Most importantly, the effect of penetrating defense doesn't completely disappear after ten levels; rather, it gradually diminishes based on the difference in cultivation level.
The cost of activating this skill is even lower than that of the right arm skill, practically negligible. However, the drawback is that it can only be used a maximum of three times per day; once those uses are exhausted, it cannot be used again.
Even so, this skill is incredibly powerful, perfectly suited to Yunze's aggressive fighting style.
The two inscribed techniques were simultaneously applied to Yunze's fists, his fists slamming out like two ice dragons, carrying a fierce gust of wind, directly striking the ice bear.
But just then—
a flash of icy blue light suddenly appeared on the ice bear's body.
"Holy crap!" Yunze's heart sank. He felt a familiar pressure on his fists, and then, almost simultaneously, both he and the beast were sent flying backward.
*Thud!*
They flew dozens of meters away before Yunze crashed headfirst into the snow, most of his body buried in the white snow, looking quite disheveled.
"It can even bounce back, that's disgusting." Emerging from the snow, Yunze casually shook off the snow, his eyes curiously fixed on the ice bear that had also stood up in the distance.
"Brother Bai, is this your ice bear clan's innate soul skill?"
Yunze couldn't help but call out to Little White.
Hearing Yunze's shout, Xiaobai rushed over and carefully checked Yunze's body. Finding that he was mostly unharmed, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Can't you take it easy, kid? If it weren't for my help and your decent defense, you would have been injured already."
"Yes, it did use a talent skill of my Ice Bear clan. It's only because of its talent that it could learn this skill, according to the tradition of the Ice Bear clan, that it would take nearly ten thousand years or even longer to master it."
"Can you do it?" Yunze looked at Xiaobai expectantly. Xiaobai
grinned. "You want to learn?"
"I'm quite envious. To be honest, I also learned a defensive technique from Sister Bing'er, but it can only be used for passive defense. If I could learn your Ice Bear clan's rebound talent, combined with the defensive technique Sister Bing'er taught me, it could very well have unexpected effects in actual combat," Yunze said with a smile.
"But this is a unique talent skill of our Ice Bear clan. You're not from our clan, and you don't have Ice Bear blood, so you can't learn it, right?" Little White shook his head.
"You know about the Ice Emperor's Body Protection?"
"Of course! Isn't that the Ice Emperor's signature move?" Xiao Bai paused for a moment, then her eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Yun Ze. "The Ice Emperor's ultimate technique that he taught you isn't the Ice Emperor's Body Protection, is it?"
"And the Ice Emperor's Turtle. But as you said, I don't have your race's bloodline, so I can't perfectly replicate it. However, my Ice Emperor's Body Protection and Ice Emperor's Turtle are both derived from Sister Bing'er's two great talents, so I have every reason to be able to successfully cultivate your Ice Bear clan's talents."
Xiao Bai scratched her head. "You're a real monster!"
"So, brother, will you teach me?"
"Alright, but you have to promise me that you won't get carried away when sparring with me, a junior. Otherwise, you'll be the one who gets hurt, and I'll be the one who gets beaten up. Neither of us will benefit!"
Yun Ze nodded with a smile. "Okay, I'll try to restrain myself in the future."
"Don't just try, you absolutely have to restrain yourself!" Xiao Bai quickly emphasized.
Yunze was speechless.
Soon, under Xiaobai's tutelage, Yunze began to study this innate skill.
According to Xiaobai, their Ice Bear clan named this talent "Ice Bear Defense." When activated, it could reflect energy within a certain tolerance range, but it didn't have a locking effect; rather, it was a kind of counter-shock. To be precise, regardless
of the original attack form, the final effect achieved using Ice Bear Defense would only be a counter-shock.
Of course, even so, Yunze studied it very diligently. After all, if this skill were combined well with Ice Emperor's Protection, it could definitely create an extremely annoying and powerful combination of offense and defense!
