On the Battlefield, magical fireballs, Battle Qi sword beams, and a storm of lightning arrows poured down upon the Alligator Turtle's deep blue, profound ice shell.

"Clang, clang, clang—"

The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing rang out as sparks flew everywhere. However, when the smoke and dust from the explosions cleared, the pseudo-divine rank Alligator Turtle, with its 1.3 billion health points, still had its ice crystal shell completely intact.

This charge couldn't even manage to break its armor!

"Hehe, ants are ants after all." The Extreme Ice Empress's voice {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} drifted from deep within the wind and snow.

"Is this the power of the modern world you're so proud of? These fancy military formations hitting my pet are simply not even enough to tickle it!" The Empress's voice carried a high-and-mighty disdain. "With 1.3 billion health points and the defense of the Profound Ice Eternal Armor, you think you can harm it even a fraction with these phantoms? You're dreaming!"

Zhou Huai looked down at the battle souls of the Professionals beneath his feet, which were dissipating and then re-condensing, and smiled.

"Old hag, have you been frozen underground for too many years? Has your brain shriveled up along with you?" Zhou Huai's voice echoed within the ruins.

"Presumptuous! You dare speak to this Empress in such a manner!" The Extreme Ice Empress raised her voice.

"What? You won't even let someone tell the truth?" Zhou Huai laughed loudly, his three-hundred-meter-tall dark-gold body trembling with the sound.

He raised his arm and pointed directly at the Extreme Ice Empress hidden in the shadows: "Do you really think I spent all this effort to open the Battlefield Domain just to let these low-level soldiers besiege a level eighty pseudo-divine rank BOSS?"

"What do you mean?" the Extreme Ice Empress asked.

"My meaning is simple..." Zhou Huai clenched his fists, a dark-gold light shining in his eyes. "I just wanted to feel exactly what limit I can push my power to under this Demon God's Body, combined with the Battlefield Domain's mandatory one hundred percent boost to all attributes for the commander!"

"You lunatic!" The Empress sternly ordered: "Profound Ice Alligator Turtle, tear him to shreds!"

"Roar—!"

The Alligator Turtle let out a roar, its massive body crashing toward Zhou Huai!

"Perfect timing!"

Zhou Huai did not retreat; instead, he advanced. He stepped heavily into the Void Realm, the reactionary force directly stomping a web-like pattern of black cracks into the space beneath his feet.

"Bang—!!!"

The three-hundred-meter-tall dark-gold giant and the deep-blue giant turtle collided on this yellow sand Battlefield that had been forcibly rewritten!

A circular shockwave swept out in all directions with the two of them as the center.

The entire ruins shook violently. Countless

ice cones smashed down from the ceiling, but before they could even hit the ground, they were ground into fine powder by the air currents generated by the collision!

"Creeeeak—"

The sound of bones grinding rang out.

The Alligator Turtle's crimson eyes widened. It hadn't expected that this human before it, whose life level was far inferior to its own, could actually contend with it in terms of physical strength after a series of buffs.

"Big turtle, dazing out during a fight can cost you your life!"

Zhou Huai caught the Alligator Turtle's momentary distraction. He gave a loud shout, and the hands that were originally braced against the turtle's head slid away as his body completed a twist in mid-air.

“Swish!”

His dark-gold palm grabbed the Alligator Turtle's tail, which was covered in ice spikes!

"Ow?" The Alligator Turtle let out a low growl.

"Take—flight!"

The muscles in Zhou Huai's arms bulged, purple lightning surging through his veins. Using the power of his waist, accompanied by a roar, he directly swung the thick tail in his hands, swinging the gargantuan creature up off the ice!

"This... how is this possible!" the Extreme Ice Empress screamed from the shadows.

"Why wouldn't it be? Behold my Meteor Pinwheel!"

Zhou Huai laughed wildly, swinging the Alligator Turtle's tail in a semi-circle through the air before using the momentum to smash it ruthlessly onto the frozen floor of the ruins below!

"Rumble—!!!"

A massive explosion erupted.

The ice surface collapsed over a large area, and countless house-sized chunks of profound ice shot into the sky. A meteor crater a hundred meters deep appeared in the center of the Battlefield!

"Awooo—"

The Alligator Turtle lay at the bottom of the pit, shaking its head.

In the ancient era before it fell into slumber, everyone was a noble member of the Remnant Races. Battles were usually competitions of Law and exchanges of magic. No creature had ever dared to fight it in such a simple and brutal way!

The battle continued.

"Don't be in such a hurry to pass out, let's go again!"

Zhou Huai smiled, giving the Alligator Turtle no chance to catch its breath. He grabbed that tail and swung it into the air.

"Second time!"

"Boom—!"

"Third time! Smash!"

"Boom—!"

"Fourth time, here you go!"

"Rumble—!!!"

Zhou Huai grabbed the pseudo-divine rank Alligator Turtle and slammed it back and forth in the ruins three or four times until the surrounding glacial terrain was smashed beyond recognition. Only then did he stop.

In the air not far away, Tsubaki used vines to suspend the still-vomiting Demon Dragon Xiao Hei. Watching this scene, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"He's strong, alright, but his form is just too ugly."

"What do you know!" Zhou Huai shook his aching wrists and responded loudly, "If you can use your hands, try not to use your mouth! As long as I can win, who cares if the form looks good or not! I call this returning to one's true self!"

The Alligator Turtle at the bottom of the pit struggled to its feet. These few slams hadn't actually caused much substantial damage to it.

But the insult was extreme!

To think that it, a dignified ancient Divine Beast, the Abyssal Profound Ice Snapping Turtle, was respected by all races wherever it went. When had it ever been swung around like this?

"Roar—!!!"

The Alligator Turtle's eyes became bloodshot, turning a solid crimson.

"Kill him! Use your Origin power and freeze him into fragments!" the Extreme Ice Empress's shout came.

Following the Empress's command, the Alligator Turtle opened its massive mouth. It compressed the core extreme cold Origin within its body.

An energy cannonball emitting a faint blue glow formed in its mouth. The surrounding space shattered under the pressure of this energy.

"Go to hell! You trash of the modern world!"

"Boom!"

The energy cannon turned into a pillar of light, piercing through the Void Realm and blasting straight toward Zhou Huai's face!

"Oh, getting desperate?"

Faced with this fatal blow, Zhou Huai did not dodge.

He muttered in his heart: "Hou Yi, Etherealization!"

"Hum—"

Just as the energy cannon was about to hit Zhou Huai, his three-hundred-meter-tall dark-gold body became transparent.

"Whoosh—"

The faint blue energy cannon passed through Zhou Huai's body, eventually striking the ruins' wall behind him, blasting the spatial barrier until it was on the verge of collapse.

Immediately after, his body quickly solidified. Taking advantage of the Alligator Turtle's frozen state, Zhou Huai formed a hand seal in front of his chest!

"Abyssal Blood Death Seal!"

That was a skill from the SSS-rank Sky-Ruling Ancestral Dragon Rider, Arthur.

The Law of Death, carrying the scent of blood, gathered in Zhou Huai's palm.

His body descended from the sky, his dark-gold right fist carrying the Law of Death as it smashed toward the Alligator Turtle's head!

"Bang—!!!"

This punch smashed onto the top of the Alligator Turtle's skull.

The Alligator Turtle let out a mournful cry, its ice-crystal-covered head smashed into the ice floor by Zhou Huai, leaving only half its body struggling outside.

"Whew... refreshing!"
