As Zhou Fan and Anna stared at each other, Zhou Fan sensed something. Looking at Anna, he could feel a large amount of her Qi moving. In fact, it seemed that every bit of Qi she had was awaiting an order.
All of a sudden, Anna put the bottoms of her palms together and poured out every bit of her Qi to the ground. The process took ten seconds, but Zhou Fan waited and allowed her to use her final move. As soon as she poured out the last bit of her Qi, leaving only enough to not pass out, she fell to the ground, unable to stand.
Zhou Fan watched on in anticipation, but nothing happened even after he waited an entire minute.
'Nothing?' Zhou Fan asked himself.
He naturally knew it was impossible that Anna would waste all her Qi for nothing, but nothing had happened so far, and he couldn't sense anything with his cultivation suppressed.
He waited another minute, but the battlefield remained completely silent. Even the background sounds of battle started to seemingly fade away.
Eventually, Zhou Fan got tired of waiting. He took a step towards Anna in an attempt to kill her, but as soon as his foot landed on the ground, he sensed something shooting up.
Zhou Fan jumped into the air immediately. A millisecond later, a blue sword pierced halfway through the ground. The sword seemed similar to most swords, but it was somewhat rectangular and flat with a slanted end.
Zhou Fan took a couple of steps back and distanced himself from the sword sticking out of the ground.
He stared at it for a moment, but it didn't move. Just as he was thinking it was a one time attack, the sword continued upwards. As its hilt showed and it was about to fully leave the ground, Zhou Fan caught sight of something else on it.
After a brief observation, Zhou Fan was able to tell it was a hand. The hand was the same icy blue as the sword and seemed somewhat different from a human or a celestial.
The unknown thing continued to break through the ground until Zhou Fan caught full sight of it.
It was a woman who seemed similar to an ice sculpture. She had features similar to a celestial, but blue, and wore a snow white outfit.
In her left hand, she carried the icy blue sword Zhou Fan saw sticking out of the ground. In the other hand, Zhou Fan saw another blue sword. This time, however, the sword was not icy blue, but space blue. Within the blue were dots of white that resembled stars in the night sky.
Clearly, this thing was what Anna created with her full power. It was an interesting technique, but Zhou Fan didn't know how long it would be able to hold him back. Either way, he had full confidence in defeating it.
"This is my final move. I call her ice queen. If you can defeat her, you have won." Anna said from the ground.
Zhou Fan didn't have time to respond as the ice queen shot towards him and slashed out with her ice sword. The slash contained more power than any other slash Zhou Fan had ever seen in the Zhou World.
Just the speed of the slashing sound made a large noise as it reached near Zhou Fans head in milliseconds.
Reacting quickly, Zhou Fan karate chopped the sword after coating his hand with death Qi. The two attacks met in mid air and neither gained the advantage.
As the two attacks pushed at each other, the ice queen's space sword was slashed at Zhou Fan's torso. That attack was what Zhou Fan was waiting for as he blocked the attack with his scythe coated in death Qi.
With both of their hands full, Zhou Fan was about to make a move. All of a sudden, the ice queen opened her mouth and blew towards Zhou Fan's eye.
The blow wasn't a normal one, but a blow equivalent to her previous sword attacks. An immense amount of ice made its way towards Zhou Fan's face and he only had time to cover it with a single layer of Qi before the attack hit.
Zhou Fan flew backwards and did a couple of backflips before he landed on the air. As he stopped moving, his face was revealed. The previous unblemished and evil skull now had a slight crack in it.
The crack was extremely tiny, but Anna couldn't help but smile looking at it.
The crack wouldn't even cause an egg to weaken, but it symbolized the fact that Zhou Fan wasn't invincible, that it was possible to defeat him.
"Is something funny?" Zhou Fan asked as he looked at her. He feigned a bit of anger to enhance the scene.
Anna stopped smiling and looked at him solemnly after hearing his words. The slight crack on his face was already healing up.
Zhou Fan started to take a couple of steps towards Anna as he spoke.
"I may not be invincible, but I'm like a mountain compared to you." He said, finishing his sentence by forming another scythe in his hand.
Before Anna or the ice queen could react, Zhou Fan struck towards anna with another tornado of death Qi.
Just as the ice queen wanted to move in front of Anna and block the attack, Zhou Fan moved forwards and clashed with her.
"Oh no you don't." He said with the only smile his skull face could pull off.
As the tornado made its way towards Anna uncontended, she pulled a formation plate out from her back. Just as she tried to activate it, she realized that she didn't have enough Qi.
She did the most movement her broken body could muster and curled up in order to protect herself. She had already accepted that she would have to take the blow with her bare body.
Just as the attack was about to hit her, a whistling sound that seemed like an object was flying at high speeds sounded out.
When Zhou Fan heard the whistling sound, he immediately looked up towards the source. However, just as he looked, a giant pillar of flames collided with the tornado of death Qi.
In an instant, both attacks dispersed leaving only sizzling air. Zhou Fan was going to check it out, but the ice queen made a sudden attack that he had to defend. As soon as he blocked it, he counterattacked with a ball of death Qi that exploded and pushed the ice queen back, right next to Anna.
After that round of attacks, neither group made another move. It wasn't that they were taking a break, but that they were waiting for whoever shot out that attack to arrive.
Moments later, a black blur in the distance appeared. It seemed that it was making its way towards the battlefield, and fast. It took a mere five seconds for the speeding silhouette to become visible.
It rushed forwards with two wings and fire Qi pouring out of its body. It had a crown made of gold on its head that was an incredible creation itself. It even reached the 5th grade, or void traversing.
Red, almost purplish scales covered its body and its eyes were an unmistakable yellow. Clearly, this being was the dragon king. As for why he had come here, Zhou Fan had no idea.
In ten more seconds, the dragon king reached the battlefield and landed next to Anna, releasing a powerful amount of pressure from its body that was thirty feet tall.
"What is this thing, and how strong is it?" He asked immediately upon landing. He didn't speak like he was talking to an enemy, but to a friend.
"He is death or something. He is more powerful than either one of us." She answered. "Even my ice queen cannot defeat him."
As their conversation happened, Zhou Fan was watching intently. After hearing what they said and how they said it, Zhou Fan put two and two together.
Most likely, the two lands had made a truce after battling for a long time. That would explain why the supreme beasts withdrew from the war and why they hadn't even had minor skirmishes in the past years.
"He may be strong, but if you work with my ice queen, we may win." She said.
The dragon king was the reason why she hadn't given up even after losing the fight every time. He had surely felt the aura that Zhou Fan had given off and she knew he would come as soon as possible.
Zhou Fan looked at the two next to each other and knew that 'death' would have to use his full strength in the next encounter. He was actually somewhat expectant. He would get to see the two strongest beings in his world fight together.
After Anna's words, the two stopped talking and looked at Zhou Fan solemnly.
Without words, the ice queen and the dragon king moved towards Zhou Fan at the same time. The ice queen slashed out an arc of space Qi towards Zhou Fan and the dragon king let out a breath of fire towards him.
Zhou Fan jumped above the attacks, but not before noticing that the dragon king's fire breath didn't just contain fire Qi. Alongside it was dragon Qi and Demon Qi.
Having an affinity to both Dragon Qi and Demon Qi despite not being a demon was surely rare.
In fact, the dragon king could be said to be a demonic dragon.
After seeing that their attacks missed, the two prepared for their next attacks. The ice queen sent out another arc of space Qi while the dragon king physically moved towards Zhou Fan and slashed out with his claws.
Zhou Fan slashed out a crescent of death Qi that met with the ice arc in mid air and dispersed it, then punched out towards the dragon king's claw.
Despite the fact that the dragon king's claw was the size of his body, it didn't overpower him. Instead, Zhou Fan's punch actually pushed back the dragon king's claws.
After neutralizing their attacks, Zhou Fan pushed his arms that were bent to the back of his body so that his shoulders moved closer to each other, and released the move he had created just moments ago in his head.
The skies darkened and clouds gathered in an instant, garnering the attention of the dragon king and anna. Zhou Fan raised his hand and a phantom dragon made of death Qi soared towards the dragon king. The dragon didn't look like the dragon king, but more like a mature version of Xiaolong.
The dragon king, seeing the attack fly towards him, didn't shy away from the challenge and flew towards the phantom dragon. While they were moving towards each other, Zhou Fan moved extremely quick towards the ice queen and slashed out with his scythe covered in death Qi.
She too didn't back off and met the attack with both of her swords. Both the dragon king and the phantom dragon met at the same time that Zhou Fans scythe and the ice queen's swords met.
The dragon king clawed at the phantom dragon while it simply opened its mouth and accelerated. A loud explosion sounded out as they collided. The phantom dragon instantly disappeared and the dragon king's claws were bent out of shape from the collision. However, he did not face any major injuries.
As for the ice Queen, she underestimated Zhou Fan's physical strength and got a cut on her right cheek. However, she too had no major injury.
Zhou Fan backed away again as the odds of winning the battle seemed slimmer and slimmer.
All of a sudden, Zhou Fan saw Anna's face out of his peripheral vision. On her right cheek, there was a cut. It was exactly the same as the one on the ice queen.
He couldn't even stop himself from smiling as he realized what it meant. As long as he could kill the ice queen, Anna would die too.
