Chapter 591 - 419: Celestial Thunder Hammer, Frost Blade, Battle of Tribulation Crossing Powerhouses

"Zhen—Sister Zhen?"

Lin Chang’sheng stared at the woman ahead in utter disbelief.

Because this woman looked exactly like Yan Zhen, the Yan Zhen he knew.

But her cultivation at this moment was so terrifyingly powerful that Lin Chang’sheng didn’t dare to recognize her rashly.

"Then let me see if you really have the strength for this!"

Wu Hao threw Lin Chang’sheng aside with one hand, planning to test the woman’s might himself—fleeing in fright would be a supreme humiliation.

For all he knew, the other side only looked impressive but was empty inside.

"Chang’sheng, move aside!"

The woman radiating cold air glanced at Lin Chang’sheng as he landed safely, and reminded him firmly.

This made Lin Chang’sheng even more certain—the woman was indeed Yan Zhen.

After learning of Lin Chang’sheng’s disappearance, Yan Zhen had rushed nonstop from the Land of Extreme Cold all the way to Immortal Sea Province, traversing multiple territories, finally tracking Lin Chang’sheng down here.

Luckily, Lin Chang’sheng was still alive.

Had she arrived any later, Lin Chang’sheng might have been doomed.

"Sister Zhen, is it really you?"

Lin Chang’sheng’s eyes filled with incredulity.

Yan Zhen had actually grown so incredibly strong?

Lin Chang’sheng knew that the battles of Tribulation Crossing cultivators were not something he could safely witness—just the shockwaves could shatter his internal organs to pieces.

So he instantly retreated ten miles away.

From there, he wouldn’t be able to see what was happening with the naked eye, but could still sense it through divine thought.

If Yan Zhen were to be overpowered, Lin Chang’sheng would definitely not abandon her.

On the battlefield.

Wu Hao stared at Yan Zhen. He’d seen cultivators wield the power of cold ice before, but never had he felt an aura this icy and powerful.

This woman’s strength was anything but ordinary, so Wu Hao dared not underestimate her.

He waved his hand, producing a massive hammer blazing with lightning.

BZZZZ—

As the Thunderbolt Giant Hammer emerged, the air crackled with thunder and lightning, silver serpents dancing across the skies, the heavens above crackling and roaring violently.

This hammer was called the Celestial Thunder Hammer. When forged, it absorbed the power of celestial thunder, making it devastatingly potent.

This treasure was a Lower Grade Celestial Immortal Treasure level weapon.

Wu Hao thought that once the other side saw his immortal treasure, she’d show some fear.

But to his surprise, she only curled her lip in a sneer of disdain.

In the very next instant, Yan Zhen flicked her hand and summoned a sword radiating the chill of the deepest cold.

As this sword appeared, the earth all around instantly froze solid for three feet deep.

For a hundred yards in every direction, a single drop of water froze to ice.

The cold air radiated out to the extreme.

Even Wu Hao had to gather up his primordial power to withstand the raw frigid force.

If he didn’t defend himself with primordial power, this icy power would surely invade his very flesh.

"The Frost Sword—you’re the Ice Frost Empress?! Impossible! The Ice Frost Empress fell three thousand years ago, how could she have returned?"

Wu Hao was stunned the moment he saw the blade in Yan Zhen’s hand.

He never imagined the woman facing him now was actually an Empress.

At her zenith, the Ice Frost Empress could rival even the Divine Dragon.

Yan Zhen clearly wasn’t that powerful yet.

The only explanation was that she’d been reborn, usurping another’s body.

"Crawl back to Celestial Emperor City, and never trouble Chang’sheng again. I’ll spare your life."

Yan Zhen spoke with icy calm.

But Wu Hao merely scoffed at her words.

"That depends if you have the skill!"

As he finished, the Celestial Thunder Hammer in his grip surged to its limit, titanic thunder power gathering, the giant hammer then coming smashing down toward Yan Zhen.

Midair, the massive hammer transformed into a doom-bringing, world-shattering force, its area of attack spanning a full ten miles.

The entire area was sealed beneath Wu Hao’s overwhelming might.

Yan Zhen stood at ground zero, the very center of the attack.

This single blow seemed to drag with it the power of heaven and earth—its might truly terrifying.

Compared to this titanic hammer, Yan Zhen seemed as small as an ant beside a towering tree; utterly insignificant.

Yet from such a tiny figure, world-shattering power burst forth.

Screee—

Yan Zhen spun her blade, and a tide of cold ice exploded outward—the thunder hammer’s charge visibly slowed.

Frost began to streak across the hammer, coating it with icy energy.

SWISH—

Yan Zhen slashed her sword, and the very space around them seemed to collapse inward.

A surge of spear aura shot directly toward the massive hammer.

KABOOM—

In the next instant, sword aura and giant hammer collided explosively with a sky-shaking roar.

The titanic shockwave blasted out ten miles, even forcing Lin Chang’sheng to stumble back violently.

"So this is the might of a Tribulation Crossing expert?"

Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t help but marvel—he was already ten miles away!

He could still feel the overwhelming shockwave.

If he’d been closer, his inner mansion would have been demolished and death would have come instantly.

At the heart of the battlefield, after that full-power clash—

Their forces stalemated in midair.

Celestial thunder and cold ice powerlocked in a deadlock.

Cold ice constantly froze Wu Hao’s attack, while thunder blasted away at the ice.

Though Yan Zhen had inherited the legacy of the Ice Frost Empress, her cultivation was not yet back to the Empress’s peak.

To slay a Tribulation Crossing powerhouse right now would not be easy.

After about half a minute of deadlock, Yan Zhen pressed her edge using the middle-grade Heaven-Reaching Immortal Treasure, the Frost Blade.

The overwhelming cold ice finally seized the advantage, sheathing the thunder-flashing giant hammer in a thick coat of frost, utterly sealing its power.
