Chapter 622: Chapter 622 This is the Power_1

In the midst of summer, although the mountain was perpetually covered in snow, it was just a thin layer.

As the cold air began to spread around the Ice and Snow Goddess, the layer of snow visibly expanded at an alarming rate over the entire mountain.

If one were to look down from high above, it would seem as if the mountain had been splashed with a layer of white paint, constantly spreading along the ridges.

Whoosh—

The piercing cold wind howled across the mountain range, carrying with it snow and frost, cutting against one’s face like a knife.

All kinds of animals and insects scrambled out of their hiding places, fleeing in a frenzy down the mountainside.

Xu Yourong witnessed this astonishing scene, deeply shaken to her core.

As the eldest daughter of the Xu Family, she had seen her fair share of martial artists.

Her fiancé, Ning Fan, was even among the most formidable of them!

But such a feat, of altering the weather and natural environment with one’s own power, was simply unheard of!

She had been full of confidence in Ning Fan, believing that no matter what sort of deity this woman might be, as long as Ning Fan arrived, he could handle her.

Yet the strength of the Ice and Snow Goddess was clearly unrelated to martial arts; it was a completely different system of power.

Xu Yourong couldn’t help but feel worried for Ning Fan, her heart filled with unease.

The Ice and Snow Goddess had now ceased the spread of her cold aura. Within hundreds of meters with her at the center, everything was enveloped in ice and snow.

Grasping the Profound Ice Shard, she reveled in the power emanating from within, her face involuntarily showing an intoxicated expression.

"Exactly... this power can elevate me to even higher echelons!"

Cold air condensed from her wrists, wrapping the Profound Ice Shard in layers, causing it to slowly float in mid-air.

Shhh—

Though it was all cold air, the Profound Ice Shard began to melt slowly as if it had encountered the blazing sun!

Xu Yourong watched this scene in shock.

She remembered Ning Fan saying that the Profound Ice Shard was indestructible, that even with all his strength, he could only chip off two shards.

Moreover, the Profound Ice Shard should not dissolve in fire or melt in water, with scarcely anything in the world capable of dissolving it.

"Ning Fan... you mustn’t come."

Xu Yourong clenched her fists tightly, praying incessantly in her heart.

Meanwhile, the Ice and Snow Goddess in the palm of her hand had now absorbed most of the Profound Ice Shard.

Her aura was rising to terrifying new heights.

Without exaggeration, Xu Yourong had never seen anyone with such an overwhelming presence; even a single burst of her cold flux made it difficult for Xu Yourong to breathe.

In an instant, the Profound Ice Shard was completely absorbed.

The moment the Profound Ice Shard vanished, the Ice and Snow Goddess abruptly opened her eyes, her icy blue pupils flashing with a sharp glint.

The next moment, an exceedingly strong aura burst forth from her!

Boom!

Pale blue shockwaves spread out like ripples in all directions, unceasing like the never-ending waves at the seashore.

Every plant and animal touched by these shockwaves turned into ice sculptures, preserved in their final living pose.

However, these waves consciously avoided Xu Yourong as they passed her by.

After a long while, the shockwaves completely dissipated, and the Ice and Snow Goddess sat on the Ice Snow Throne, her icy blue eyes showing a trace of delight.

"Mortal, witnessing a deity ascend is your great honor."

Compared to before, the strength of the Ice and Snow Goddess had increased by at least a third, which pleased her greatly.

You see, most deities are born powerful, possessing formidable strength right at birth.

This strength surpasses ninety-nine percent of the world’s population, with only a limited number of human practitioners who have cultivated to the extreme potentially being able to fight a deity.

Such terrifying strength, however, comes with a significant flaw.

Deities cannot cultivate in conventional ways, and without treasures like Wannian Xuanbing, it would be extremely difficult for the Ice and Snow Goddess to enhance her power.

Many deities spend their entire lives maintaining the strength they had at birth.

"Hmph, what damn honor," Xu Yourong said disdainfully. "I don’t believe in you, so what does your becoming stronger have to do with me?"

Such words were without a doubt a great affront to a deity.

But the Ice and Snow Goddess had just increased her strength, so she paid no heed to Xu Yourong’s disrespectful behavior.

"Once you witness my power, you will willingly offer your body to me!"

As the night drew on, the Ice and Snow Goddess prepared to take advantage of her newly gained strength to subjugate Xu Yourong, meanwhile testing out her current level of power.

Hearing this, Xu Yourong felt a jolt of fright, and although she hadn’t recovered her strength, she tried to stand and escape from the Ice and Snow Goddess’s control.

"Mortal, cease these futile actions. To offer your body to me is the greatest honor of your life!"

The Ice and Snow Goddess lightly tapped her finger, and a streak of cold light shot out from her fingertip, instantly piercing Xu Yourong’s heart.

However, this cold air didn’t harm her but instead spread a chilling cold throughout her body.
