Jigen's eyes widened.
At this moment, he felt as if he had been greatly humiliated.
How could he, a dignified seventh-rank Earth Ninja, possibly lose to an ant who was only a sixth-rank Earth Ninja?
This was simply a disgrace!
"Damn it, just die for me!"
Jigen roared, and suddenly, a terrifying cold current surged out from within his body.
The cold current swept through the surroundings, and in an instant, the glaciers were transformed into blocks of ice.
"Rumble!"
The cold current transformed into countless sharp and piercing ice spears, aiming at Ignis, raining down from above and covering the sky.
"Hmph! Trivial skills!"
Ignis snorted coldly, and suddenly, a brilliant light burst forth from his eyes.
In the next moment, the spiritual power of the five elements - metal, wood, water, fire, and earth - within his body simultaneously began to boil, surging and churning like prehistoric beasts!
These five types of spiritual power fused together, forming a suit of golden-red armor on the surface of his body.
The armor was covered with mysterious and intricate patterns.
Above the armor, there were also profound runes, constantly wriggling, as if they were alive.
Under the backdrop of those mysterious runes, Ignis looked just like a peerless deity who had stepped out of a painting!
Beneath the armor, Ignis was like a god, looking down upon all living beings.
"Swish!"
He heavily tapped his toes on the ground, and his entire body shot towards Jigen like a cannonball!
At that moment, his figure seemed to transform into a streak of light, as fast as lightning.
In the blink of an eye, he had already closed in on Jigen!
"Die!"
Ignis roared in a low voice, and threw out a punch.
An enormous fist, like a meteor, carrying boundless power, fiercely bombarded Jigen.
The power carried by this punch was enough to destroy mountains and rivers, and suppress oceans and seas!
Faced with this punch, Jigen's expression suddenly sank!
This punch was too overbearing, causing him to feel a wave of heart palpitations.
Was this the divine power granted to him by Amaterasu, Nine Turns of Ice Sealing?
He could only tightly grip the giant axe in his hands.
Upon the axe blade of the giant axe, strange ice crystals spread out, forming a massive shield on the blade, firmly guarding him.
"Crack crack"
The enormous fist collided with the shield.
Terrifying explosive sounds reverberated through the heavens.
The entire world trembled violently beneath this punch.
The earth cracked, and lines of fissures continuously spread outwards, like spiderwebs, covering the earth.
Streaks of startling sword qi crisscrossed, flashing in mid-air.
Each streak of that stunning sword qi was like a tangible substance.
The instant the sword qi pierced through the defense, Jigen coughed up blood, and his body flew backwards.
"Crack!"
Ignis once again activated the five elements escaping technique, and his figure disappeared from the spot.
In the next second, he reappeared, already in front of Jigen.
Ignis's fist once again bombarded the shield.
A violent sound rang out.
Ignis's punch smashed onto the shield, and the entire giant axe actually caved in.
And Jigen was once again blasted away.
"Rumble!"
Jigen once again crashed down, and a mouthful of crimson blood spurted from his mouth, staining the ground red.
"Impossible... You... How could you be so strong?"
Jigen shouted unwillingly.
In his view, Ignis's cultivation was only at the seventh rank of the Earth Ninja realm, and there was no way he could break through his protective spiritual power!
However, Ignis had done it.
And he had even repelled him.
This caused a monstrous wave to surge in his heart, and he was unable to calm down for a long time.
"This is impossible!"
He roared once more, his eyes filled with disbelief.
He refused to believe it, and charged up again.
"Boom!"
The axe cleaved out, a cold light spewing forth, and the icy wind blew across the earth, carving out a deep gully.
Jigen frantically wielded the giant axe, slashing out terrifying axe.
Each time he swung the giant axe, it was like a sharp weapon, tearing through the sky.
"Rumble!"
Ignis's figure was like a ghost, constantly moving, dodging these terrifying axe.
Unfortunately, every time he wanted to approach Jigen, Jigen would immediately wield the giant axe in his hand to stop him.
The two of them engaged in a fierce battle within this ice valley.
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
The giant axe and the fist collided, and booming sounds rang out incessantly.
This battle continued for a long time.
Finally, a muffled thunder-like booming sound came.
"Crack!"
A violent vigor swept through all directions, and the entire ice valley shook violently. The earth even showed abyssal cracks.
Almost the entire mountain range was blasted out with a deep pit of several kilometers by this violent vigor.
Blood also trickled from the corners of Jigen's mouth.
His whole person was also disheveled and battered, his clothes torn, revealing the bones beneath.
"Who exactly are you?!"
Jigen stared intently at Ignis.
He roared unwillingly.
Ignis's strength far exceeded his expectations!
He had to know, his cultivation was at the eighth rank of the Earth Ninja realm!
Even if he encountered an ordinary peak Earth Ninja, he could easily kill them.
Yet, in his view, Ignis's cultivation was only at the seventh rank of the Earth Ninja realm, how could he possibly have such terrifying strength?
There was definitely something strange about this!
"I am an existence that you will never understand."
Ignis spoke indifferently, his gaze chilling.
The unwillingness and resentment in Jigen's eyes grew even stronger.
He was unwilling that his strength would actually be defeated by this young man, he didn't accept it!
He didn't accept it!
He didn't believe that this guy could truly defeat him.
"Boom!"
Ignis's right hand rose again.
Another fist howled out, like Mountain pressing down, carrying endless power, crushing towards Jigen.
Jigen was shocked, and his figure hurriedly retreated.
This time, he had learned his lesson, and didn't choose to resist with brute force, but instead used his own power to block.
A thunderclap-like sound reverberated, and his giant axe directly shattered.
Immediately after, Ignis's terrifying fist heavily slammed into his body.
