Ye Ling heard the heroic voice of the World-Ending Spirit Fire and couldn't help but laugh, "World-Ending Spirit Fire, you're quite arrogant now. You've got your moment!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire chuckled, "Of course. I am not what I used to be. It's only natural to be bold now, wouldn't wasting my powerful strength be a shame?"
"It's been so long! Finally, it's my turn to speak loudly!"
Ye Ling smiled, "Yes, yes, yes... Then I'll be relying on you a lot from now on, Lord World-Ending Spirit Fire. Your attributes should perfectly counter Ji Ning, and trapping her shouldn't be difficult, right?"
"Naturally! Just watch my performance!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire roared with laughter, flew out from Ye Ling's wrist, and condensed a massive fireball in the sky, directly burning through the frozen sky where Ji Ning was.
Scorching flames swept across heaven and earth, melting the profound ice that had sealed the Dao State.
Ji Ning looked at the giant fireball in the sky, her eyes filled with even deeper gloom, her hand gripping the ice spear so hard her bones creaked!
However, under the fierce flames of the World-Ending Spirit Fire, even Ji Ning's ice spear began to melt.
"You two liars... I will never forgive you!" Ji Ning gritted her teeth, "The Origin Inheritance, I will definitely reclaim it!"
"Old hag, take this!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire in the sky laughed heartily, carrying flames imbued with sword intent, and charged fiercely towards Ji Ning!
Seeing the World-Ending Spirit Fire approach, Ji Ning dared not underestimate it. She once again condensed a new ice spear in her hand and thrust it towards the World-Ending Spirit Fire!
Boom!!!
Ice and flames collided, and a large amount of water vapor diffused across heaven and earth, shrouding the entire northern region of the Dao State in mist!
"Old hag, your ice has no effect on me!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire laughed loudly, quickly transformed into human form, grabbed Ji Ning's ice spear with one hand, and instantly melted Ji Ning's weapon!
"Don't spout nonsense, you half-baked supreme being!"
Ji Ning said sternly, releasing her ice domain once more. The mist that permeated the heavens and earth froze again, turning the entire northern region of the Dao State into a giant ice block!
Even Ye Ling was completely frozen!
Now that Ye Ling had lost the Seed of Origin, and with the World-Ending Spirit Fire battling Ji Ning, he had no means to resist Ji Ning's ice.
However, not long after Ye Ling was frozen, the surrounding profound ice quickly melted, and the flames of the World-Ending Spirit Fire turned the northern region of the Dao State into a sea of fire!
"Old hag, eat my punch!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire roared with laughter, and after melting Ji Ning's weapon, it rushed directly in front of her, landing a fierce punch on her face!
Bang!!!
Ji Ning was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the ground, causing the earth for tens of thousands of miles to collapse, forming a massive basin!
"This World-Ending Spirit Fire fellow, his combat power has increased so much. Perhaps he's been studying how to use the power of a supreme being all this time?"
Ye Ling chuckled and teased, seeing the performance of the World-Ending Spirit Fire.
The World-Ending Spirit Fire's proficiency in using supreme being power was clearly much better than when Tian Xing first became a supreme being. This indicated that the World-Ending Spirit Fire had been secretly learning the power of supreme beings while by Ji Ning's side.
It clearly had been holding back, preparing to unleash it at this very moment.
"My power is completely countered by this ball of fire. I'm at a disadvantage now..." Ji Ning stood up from the shattered earth, looking at the World-Ending Spirit Fire standing in the void, her expression somewhat grim.
She hadn't expected the World-Ending Spirit Fire and Qing Zhu's Origin Inheritance to be so compatible. Now that it had become a supreme being, and given that the World-Ending Spirit Fire was itself a flame, her ice could not harm it in the slightest!
Ji Ning knew clearly that if this continued, she would surely be defeated!
"No, I must withdraw from here first. After absorbing the Seed of Origin, I will return!" Ji Ning made up her mind, preparing to swallow her pride for now and retreat!
Seeing the change in Ji Ning's aura, Ye Ling immediately realized Ji Ning was about to escape and shouted to the World-Ending Spirit Fire, "World-Ending Spirit Fire, tie down Ji Ning, don't let her run!"
"You got it!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire laughed heartily, transforming from human form back into a fiery cage, descending from the sky and trapping Ji Ning within, sealing the surrounding space.
Flames burned the earth!
"You think you can trap me here! Break!!!"
Seeing the World-Ending Spirit Fire turn into a fiery cage, Ji Ning immediately shouted, releasing her power, attempting to shatter the cage of the World-Ending Spirit Fire!
However, that cage was the World-Ending Spirit Fire itself. Ji Ning was now essentially contending with the World-Ending Spirit Fire itself.
And Ji Ning did not have the overwhelming strength to crush the World-Ending Spirit Fire. Her attributes were naturally countered by the World-Ending Spirit Fire. No matter how she impacted the cage of the World-Ending Spirit Fire, she couldn't escape.
"Damn it!"
Unable to break through the World-Ending Spirit Fire's blockade, Ji Ning's expression grew even more grim. Finally, she gave up on breaking through and simply sat down on the spot, condensing layers of shields around herself with ice.
"Even if you can trap me here, you have no ability to kill me. Once I absorb the Seed of Origin, it will be your death day!"
Ji Ning abandoned escape and offense, focusing entirely on defense while absorbing the Seed of Origin on the spot.
The World-Ending Spirit Fire tried to break through Ji Ning's defense, but no matter how much ice it melted, new ice would condense on Ji Ning's body.
"Kid, this old hag has put on a turtle shell for herself and isn't fighting us anymore. What should we do?"
Unable to break through Ji Ning's defense, and not daring to remove the fiery cage and let Ji Ning go, the World-Ending Spirit Fire asked Ye Ling.
Ye Ling landed outside the fiery cage, looking at Ji Ning who was fully defending within, and smiled at the World-Ending Spirit Fire, "You've only recently absorbed the Origin Inheritance, and you've already forced an old supreme being into a defensive posture. Your performance has exceeded my expectations."
"I thought you wouldn't be able to beat her!"
The World-Ending Spirit Fire retorted unhappily, "What do you mean, kid? Are you looking down on me?"
"Haha, after all, you usually mess things up so much. It's a bit unaccustomed to you being so effective all of a sudden!" Ye Ling laughed heartily.
"But this is good, it saves me a lot of trouble."
Hearing Ye Ling and the World-Ending Spirit Fire's conversation, Ji Ning's eyes filled with even greater killing intent. She said in a deep voice, "You two are enjoying yourselves now. Once I absorb the Seed of Origin, you'll be begging for mercy at my feet!"
Ye Ling looked at Ji Ning and smiled, "Ji Ning, do you really think you can absorb my Seed of Origin?"
Ji Ning was taken aback, "What do you mean?"
Ye Ling chuckled, "If you escaped from here, we wouldn't be able to catch you, and this Seed of Origin would truly be yours. But now that you're trapped here, the situation is different."
"Are you saying you can snatch the Seed of Origin back from me?" Ji Ning sneered. "The Origin Inheritance that the World-Ending Spirit Fire absorbed has a power similar to mine. The reason it can trap me is entirely due to attribute advantage."
"If the World-Ending Spirit Fire tried to snatch it by force, even with a million years, it wouldn't be able to melt my ice!"
"Who said the World-Ending Spirit Fire would snatch it?"
Ye Ling smiled slightly, took out half of the World-Suppressing Pearl, and said to Ji Ning, "I will take it back myself."
"That's!!!"
Ji Ning's pupils contracted sharply when she saw the World-Suppressing Pearl floating in Ye Ling's palm!
