Chapter 88 Black Tombstone
The ice crystal dragon wings flapped slightly, and Ophi’s slender feet touched the ground as she leaped high. Her fair jade-like palm gripped the ice spear blade tightly, and her ice blue eyes, like frost ice gems, were filled only with the sharp edge of the cold spear. The attack, carrying all her frost, was thrust out with Ophi’s full strength.
“Whoosh!”
Flesh tore, and the ice spear blade pierced Evesta’s throat without hindrance. Amidst the scattered small flesh tumors, the remaining touch of fair skin quickly spread and solidified into frost.
However, the strange and deformed flesh and vitality continued to grow within the frozen ice.
Evesta twisted her pierced neck, as if a malevolent ghost rising from the netherworld, striking terror into one’s heart. Her vocal cords were originally covered with all sorts of mutated polyps and tumors, making them particularly eerie. Yet, after being pierced by Ophi’s spear, she still managed to speak.
“Very powerful ice. Unfortunately, Dragon Princess, you are not yet Saint Rank. Even if you are a King-tier Dragon, with all your dragon breath condensed onto the spear blade, how could you possibly destroy a divinely gifted life?”
The woman mocked wantonly, but suddenly, the composure displayed on her face turned into utter shock. Irregularity flashed in her dark brown pupils, showing disbelief.
The ice did not freeze and shatter as imagined, but continued to spread visibly on Evesta’s body.
“How is this possible? Even if you are a Dragon, this kind of ice—”
Evesta’s gaze was panicked, as if she had encountered the purest frost, freely freezing the world. In an instant, it wasn’t just her magic, Evesta even felt her body’s seemingly endless flesh and life solidifying.
Ophi gritted her teeth lightly, her expression revealing that she was not at ease.
The Ice Dragon Girl still held the spear blade in the woman’s throat. Time itself seemed to freeze around them, and only the frost continuously spreading on the Dark Moon Longsword revealed that time was not truly frozen.
However, with her power, it was not enough to completely obliterate this Saint Rank who had been reborn through a strange spell.
The Eternal Longsword was raised again, and the sword edge that stabbed Ig’s chest shattered into ice fragments. End blazed with a stunning light ray. As his gaze lifted, a dazzling brilliance erupted like the sun.
Unable to react at all, bound by the ice, Evesta was struck directly by the longsword condensed with “End’s Moment,” piercing her body with irresistible prestige.
“Boom!”
The rebound force from the woman’s body struck him. Ig, already severely wounded, had no time to react. With a muffled groan, he was sent flying and crashed onto the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood heavily.
“Ig!”
An ice-blue figure rushed to his side urgently. Her frost-colored beautiful hair fell to the ground, and the Ice Dragon Girl looked anxious, quickly helping Ig up.
His chest had borne the might of Evesta’s attack.
Although the demonic power of a Saint Domain’s full-force attack had dispersed before it could be fully unleashed, it had still left a terrifying hole in Ig’s chest, from which blood continuously flowed. The residual moonlight also prevented Ig from attempting to heal the wound with demonic power.
Kneeling on the damaged ground, tendrils of ice blue light emanated around Ophi, blocking the aftermath of the surrounding battle.
“Such an injury…”
Her gaze fell on Ig, and the Ice Dragon Girl’s frost blue beautiful eyes trembled involuntarily, her voice tinged with panic.
She gritted her silver teeth tightly. Her slender and smooth little hands pressed against the hole in Ig’s chest, and a wisp of frost blue light flickered, gradually dispelling the residual moonlight and sealing the wound.
Suddenly, her slender and fair wrist was gently held by the young man’s palm, and Ophi looked up in surprise.
“Cough. It’s nothing serious.”
Ig forced a smile and shook his head slightly, indicating he was fine. Looking at the girl’s much more relieved and beautiful face, Ig added:
“By the way, Fei’s attack just now…”
The moment the Ice Dragon Girl thrust her spear blade, not only Evesta, the target of the attack, but Ig also felt a wave of frost pass before his eyes.
It was as if the mighty and awe-inspiring God of Ice, wherever the spear blade pointed, everything was covered in frost under the law of ice.
“Hehe… That’s the ice Veer gave me.”
The Ice Dragon Girl ruffled her soft frost blue beautiful hair, stuck out her tongue, and said charmingly with her head tilted.
“Ice…?”
Hearing Ophi’s words, Ig suddenly remembered that when they were still on the Aer Continent, facing the pursuing God of Ice, Verafia had used her true form as the Goddess of Blazing Flame, swinging her sword to sever a corner of the ice sky.
Before bidding farewell to him, the girl had also given Verafia this piece of ice origin as a gift of apology.
“So, Fei has already refined the origin of ice?”
Ig’s pupils lifted as he said with some surprise.
In just two years, to refine the origin of a deity, this kind of thing, even if Ophi was a Dragon, would be earth-shattering on the continent.
However, he seemed to recall Veer mentioning that Fei’s bloodline might not be just that of a simple dragon?
Verafia gifting the ice origin seemed to be to help Ophi even if she herself was no longer around.
“I’m still trying to master it. That was the first time I released it…”
Ophi’s slender dragon tail swayed gently, and she said somewhat shyly. Her voice paused slightly, and she then looked up with her frost blue eyes towards where Evesta was.
“Just now, it was thanks to you, Ig, for holding her off, that I was able to unleash my attack. However, I don’t know if she’s dead yet?”
The Ice Dragon Girl’s ability to pierce Evesta’s throat with a single spear was definitely not without Ig’s all-out offensive, even directly blocking Evesta’s Dark Moon Sword with his chest.
However, Ophi also knew that her ice and spear blade alone were not enough to kill Evesta, who in the Saint Domain appeared strange due to Fatter’s spell.
“Don’t worry. I hit her heart. Moreover, Veer’s End’s Moment also erased Fatter’s spell imprint.”
Ig said, slightly raising his azure eyes. Looking at the dark curtain of the Saint Domain that shrouded the surroundings but was constantly disintegrating, he could even see the battlefield where elves and dark elves were fighting.
This was a sign that Evesta was unable to maintain her Saint Domain.
The place where Evesta originally stood was covered in frost and surging demonic power. After a brief pause, it gradually dispersed, reappearing in the gaze of Ig and the Ice Dragon Girl.
Traces of frost remained on the dark elf’s body.
But her life had been severed, and she did not stand up again. Even her fleshly creation, mutated by Fatter’s spell to possess endless life and the ability to split, stopped wriggling, like a lifeless object.
Evesta’s chest also bore a terrifying sword wound that had shattered her heart.
This was the mark of “End’s Moment.” Black blood flowed out of it, slowly soaking into the ground. Evesta’s robes and corpse were covered by it, like a black tombstone.

Well, guess what will happen to Ig later?
