AST 1370 – Unexpected Breakthrough, Eighth Heavenly Layer, Paragon, Elementary Level: Paragon Heavenly Technique

She was reluctant to accept it… Her life had just started. She was reluctant to lose it so quickly. On this day, she had become his woman, but could she really only enjoy such a short moment of happiness?

The icy flame was constantly eroding Qing Shui's Dantian. His Dantian had already been intruded. The ice flame-like aura made Qing Shui feel really uncomfortable. He had never expected for things to be like this. Originally, he thought that everything had turned out fine. He never calculated that he would be forced into such a situation.

Qing Shui felt that his body was getting colder and colder. Though faint, his Dantian had begun to hurt. Furthermore, this kind of sensation was getting increasingly strong. It felt just like being cut by a knife. Qing Shui clenched his teeth, trying to hold on arduously. In fact he even felt like the extreme pain of disembowelment paled in comparison to the pain he was feeling now.

The icefire within Yehuang Guwu's body felt as if it was infinite in amount. For now, Qing Shui could only block it as much as he could. He didn't know what method he could use to do so. If he was really forced on a road of ruin, he didn't know what he should do.

What did the saying "having one's hands bound and unable to do anything" mean? Qing Shui was definitely feeling something like it. Despite the fact that he was powerful, there was no place in which he could find a use for his strength. There was only a thin line of distance between the two places… but one would lead to heaven, and the other to hell.

Yehuang Guwu didn't know what she could do. She wanted to take the icefire back into her body as much as she could, but this thing was no longer within her control. She could do nothing but only feel Qing Shui's body as they both slowly got colder and colder.

There was more and more icefire qi within his Dantian. Similarly, the qi was also constantly increasing within his meridians. It felt as if the vitality across his entire body had been locked.

Time passed by little by little. Qing Shui felt as if he had already been frozen solid by the ice.

Force of Rebirth!

Qing Shui operated the Force of Rebirth across his body and slowly tried to cancel off the icefire qi within his body little by little. This was Qing Shui's last ability to survive. If this proved to be useless, Qing Shui wouldn't know what to do.

The Force of Rebirth revolved slowly as it tried to cancel off the qi. Despite this, it was also quite limited, as it could not keep up with the icefire qi entering his body. Taking everything into account, Qing Shui's body condition was still worsening little by little.

Qing Shui's consciousness was getting weaker and weaker. Yehuang Guwu intended to do carry on with her previous move again. She couldn't afford to see Qing Shui leave this world like that. She said to herself in her heart that even in death, she must walk in front of him.

Qing Shui's vitality was getting weaker and weaker. It has gotten to the point that there was only a single strand left.

Yehuang Guwu clenched her teeth. She was getting ready to make her final decision. As her vital force was fading, a portion of Force of Rebirth suddenly transferred into her body.

The tears across her face once again dropped down.

Yehuang Guwu was aware that Qing Shui was doing it on purpose. If this went on, Qing Shui would definitely die in front of her. This way, the Force of Rebirth within his body would still have to soar its way up into her body. Hence, the only thing she could do was stop. This way, he would be able to live a bit longer.
