Chapter 029: The Great Battle

Boom!

At that moment, stone spikes suddenly rose from the ground, trying to pierce Wang Bo's body.

Wang Bo controlled the flying sword aura and flew back. The Nine Yang sword aura fluttered up and down around him, like a beam of light dancing wildly, directly leveling the stone spikes and smashing them to pieces.

At the same time, he sensed the witch's position. Pointing a finger, streams of sword aura howled out, tearing through the void.

The witch sensed the danger and emerged from the air. With a wave of her hand, snowflakes flew everywhere, freezing the incoming sword aura instantly. With a snap of her fingers, the sword aura shattered all over the ground.

A hint of arrogant smile appeared on her pretty face. "Let me see what abilities you have to meddle in my affairs."

She waved her hands, and the temperature in the air dropped at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

The ground beneath her feet quickly froze into ice, spreading outward in all directions.

Wang Bo activated his Nine Yang true qi and slapped out with his palm.

Nine Yang Five Extremes, Fire Cloud Palm!

Fifth Form... Boundless Sea of Fire!

With this palm strike, fire energy swept across all directions, heat waves surged like raging waves, instantly devouring everything. The temperature beneath rose rapidly, and the scorching true qi directly melted the ice and snow.

The snowflakes flying in the air evaporated instantly.

In an instant, within ten zhang of Wang Bo, the fire energy was overwhelming, forming its own space, impervious to any external cold. This space expanded rapidly with Wang Bo's fire energy.

In the blink of an eye, it expanded to twenty zhang.

Seeing this, the witch released even fiercer cold from her body. The flying snowflakes condensed into white soldiers riding white warhorses, charging at Wang Bo.

Seeing this, Wang Bo raised his hand and scattered a handful of beans.

Each bean quickly transformed into a heavenly soldier.

This was the first time Wang Bo used the technique of scattering beans to form soldiers against an enemy.

The heavenly soldiers looked exactly like Wang Bo, each one extremely cold and indifferent. Wielding swords, spears, halberds, and other weapons, they defeated the charging ice soldiers with irresistible force, killing them all.

The ice soldiers seemed like mere decorations, shattering at the slightest touch.

But Wang Bo knew these soldiers were not just for show; they were more powerful than ordinary human cavalry. If human cavalry fought these ice soldiers, even if they could defeat them, they would pay a heavy price.

However, no matter how strong these ice soldiers were, before Wang Bo's heavenly soldiers, they were like children.

The heavenly soldiers were like miniature versions of Wang Bo. Killing these ice soldiers was like bullying children—one sword strike each, defeating them with irresistible force.

After defeating the ice soldiers, a group of heavenly soldiers surrounded the witch, forming a battle formation to trap her.

The witch sensed the danger and increased her magical output. A more intense ice storm erupted around her, and an invisible cold swept through the void in an instant.

One by one, the heavenly soldiers were defeated, turning into wisps of green smoke and disappearing into the air.

Wang Bo knew well that this was not because the heavenly soldiers were weak, but because his own magical power was not strong enough.

These heavenly soldiers were summoned with only a small portion of Wang Bo's magical power, inferior even to some lower demons. They were fine against ice soldiers but much more difficult against the witch.

Later, when he became stronger, the heavenly soldiers summoned with a large amount of magical power would also grow in strength.

Perhaps one heavenly soldier could then deal with a witch like this.

Of course, by that time, Wang Bo himself would likely be almost comparable to a true superhuman.

After confirming that ice seemed ineffective against Wang Bo, the witch's eyes flashed with intense light. The snow and cold disappeared instantly, and the air began to warm up.

She raised her hand, and an invisible storm descended.

Wang Bo was not to be outdone. He flicked his fingers repeatedly, and streams of scorching sword aura shattered the storm into pieces.

The witch grew even more astonished. She pointed forward, and a bolt of thunder fell from the sky, striking toward the top of Wang Bo's head.

But as the lightning rapidly approached Wang Bo's head, it seemed to be blocked by some invisible force. The lightning shattered instantly, with sparks spreading in all directions.

Wang Bo said, "Courtesy demands reciprocity. You take a move from me too."

The witch's aggressive attacks made Wang Bo quite displeased. He flicked his fingertips repeatedly, shooting out brilliant Nine Yang sword aura that filled the void, sealing off all the witch's escape routes above and below.

The sword aura crisscrossed the sky, unstoppable. But the moment it approached the witch, it seemed to hit something, producing a series of explosive sounds, shattering into pieces.

Wang Bo then realized that the witch, like himself, also had a defensive barrier around her.

The witch looked at Wang Bo and softly commanded, "Turn to stone."

In an instant, Wang Bo's feet turned to stone. The petrification spread upward along his calves, and his body gradually transformed into stone.

Wang Bo sneered. His magical power erupted violently, completely shattering the petrification. The skin on his already petrified legs burst open, and a layer of stone powder fell rustling.

He lifted his foot and stomped hard on the ground. A surging force instantly reached under the witch's feet and exploded.

The witch seemed to sense this and floated back just as the ground exploded.

"No wonder you dared to meddle in my affairs. You are stronger than I thought," the witch said, slowly withdrawing her magical power. She knew it would be difficult to defeat Wang Bo and intended to stop.

If they continued fighting like this, it might end in mutual destruction, or even total defeat.

So the witch no longer intended to continue the fight.

Wang Bo sensed her intention. The surging magical power and true qi in his body gradually cooled down. He was not a battle maniac. Since the other party was unwilling to fight, Wang Bo would not force a three-hundred-round battle.

There was no need.

After all, he had intervened on his own, lifting her curse. In a sense, he was the one in the wrong.

Of course, even if things happened again, Wang Bo would not hesitate to intervene.

In his view, turning an innocent and lovely child into a teacup was too cruel.

So Wang Bo really had no good feelings toward this witch.

Seeing that Wang Bo did not persist, the witch nodded with satisfaction. "This matter ends here, mage. I hope you will not meddle in my affairs again."

Wang Bo said, "I have no intention of opposing you. I merely saved some innocent people as a matter of convenience, nothing more."

The witch sneered a few times and said displeasedly, "You really are a mage full of a sense of justice."

With that, without waiting for Wang Bo's reply, the witch turned into a gust of wind and disappeared on the spot.
