Chapter 414: The Not-So-Bright White Flower Moon-Treading Deer
Deep within the boundless Sea Region, encased in the eternal ice of the Nether Princess Bai Xue’s coffin, the white-haired, antlered woman slowly opened her dull, gray eyes, a chilling aura emanating from her.
Something had changed. The small, velvety nubs on her head had grown into massive, branching antlers, their sharp tips piercing through the coffin, reaching into the deep sea, creating massive waves.
Having formally broken through to the Waning Moon Stage, not only had her power and bloodline strengthened, but fragments of her ancestral memories had also flooded her mind, stirring the already muddled thoughts within.
Boom!!!
The ice coffin shattered, the white moon rising.
A brilliant moonlight, and a massive, split, pure white full moon, its two halves like a pair of horns, ascended, a breathtaking, awe-inspiring sight.
The white moon, its surface a swirling, milky white liquid, dripped viscous droplets, a torrential downpour, reducing everything it touched to dust.
At this moment, in the Sea Concubine Palace battlefield, Ye Tianyu, still trapped in the Snow Woman’s embrace, cried out in disbelief,
“The Illusion Sea Concubine!?”
Even the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine, its eyes scanning the area, was surprised. If it hadn’t known the White Flower Moon-Treading Deer was here, it would have mistaken this for the Illusion Sea Concubine herself.
The aura was almost identical, a pure, gentle, watery essence replacing the usual aggressive lunar dominance, even its characteristic abilities altered.
Swish—
In that frozen moment, a white-haired, antlered woman materialized in the sky above, its presence radiating an almost unbearable pressure, the surrounding space cracking and distorting.
The White Flower Moon-Treading Deer had broken through to the Sun and Moon Realm!!!
But as the deer woman, its aura divine, surveyed the Sea Region, a flicker of disappointment in its dull, watery eyes.
“The White Flower Moon-Treading Deer… no title…?”
Seeing this, Gong Lianyue also frowned. It had entered its dormant state a while ago, seemingly preparing for a title bestowal.
And yet, despite having reached the Waning Moon Stage, there was no sign of a title. That was strange.
With its achievements, it should have easily earned one…
The White Flower Moon-Treading Deer also seemed disappointed, its spirits lifting the moment it saw the blue-haired girl. It charged, leaping across the vast distance, and landed in Gong Lianyue’s arms.
“Oof—”
Its massive antlers digging into Gong Lianyue, making her gasp, her eyes rolling back.
After a moment, she carefully pushed the White Flower Moon-Treading Deer aside, extracting its antlers from her more sensitive areas.
The White Flower Moon-Treading Deer now clung to her side, like a docile, affectionate pet.
“Why didn’t you receive a title?”
“I don’t know…” the White Flower Moon-Treading Deer poked Gong Lianyue’s body curiously, as if fascinated by the “Water Moon Concubine” title now etched into her very being, its intelligence seemingly regressed.
Each transformation seemed to shift its personality towards the gentler, watery aspect, its former arrogance fading.
After its desperate gamble at the Cold Waterfall Heavenly Gate, the White Flower Moon-Treading Deer had quickly fallen into a deep sleep. Its personality now, surprisingly gentle and… adorable.
At this moment, seeing the awakened White Flower Moon-Treading Deer, both the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine and Ye Tianyu felt a surge of apprehension.
Although without a title, its aura was strangely powerful.
Both were of the same lineage, beings that had once stood at the apex of the spirit world, and yet this one’s power now rivaled their own, a level beyond ordinary, lord-level legendary beings.
Unfortunately, Ye Tianyu was still trapped, struggling against the combined assault of the Nether Princess Bai Xue and the Ice Banquet Cold Rakshasa. Only the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine could face this new threat, but its usual battle lust was gone, replaced by a strange reluctance.
“Forget it. A title doesn’t matter. Let’s just drive them away!!”
“Okay!”
Hearing Gong Lianyue’s words, the White Flower Moon-Treading Deer turned obediently, its gentle, watery eyes fixed on the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine, a flicker of killing intent within.
They exchanged a menacing glare, and the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine sighed, exhaling a chilling mist.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
The next second, a terrifying wave of icy energy erupted, instantly freezing the surrounding sea, a frozen wasteland spreading outwards.
A chilling blizzard, like a volcanic eruption, a tsunami of ice, swept across the Sea Region, everything in its path frozen solid, mountains and human settlements encased in ice.
Not just the Sea Region inhabitants watching through the Black Moon Dead Tower Palace, but even Gong Lianyue herself, her teardrop eyes wide with shock, felt a shiver of fear.
Such terrifying power… was this the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine’s true strength…?
At the same time, the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine’s antlers grew longer, sharper, their curved tips like blades, its previously soft, white legs thinning, their joints bending at unnatural angles, like the White Flower Moon-Treading Deer’s.
The Ice Antelope Grand Concubine had entered its second phase…
Its spirit energy and physical strength increasing a thousandfold.
Gong Lianyue’s teardrop eyes narrowed, her gaze, like an x-ray, piercing through the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine’s clothes, examining its body. Its soft, white flesh now covered in a layer of icy fur, its spirit energy cold and dense, concentrated in its antlers.
If its previous form had been that of a bipedal goat-like creature, it was now a four-legged predator, its speed dramatically increased.
They were dead.
Gong Lianyue knew, even if she could see the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine’s movements, she couldn’t dodge its attack.
It was said to be the fastest creature in the spirit world. Her human body was no match for it.
Here it comes. Which ones?
The Snow Woman? The Frozen Calamity? Or perhaps the black Water Element or the Ice Forged Decapitator?
As the Ice Antelope Grand Concubine, its sharp eyes fixed on the blue-haired girl, crouched low, ready to pounce—
