Xiao Lin's second soul skill erupted with a blinding lightning flash, causing Kakumbo, who was twenty meters away, to instantly lose his vision.
Following that, Xiao Lin's third soul skill, Blazing Power—which had received a super-enhancement after his transformation into the Ultimate Ice and Fire attribute—ignited instantaneously.
As intense heat radiated from within Xiao Lin's body, he was draped in a coat of golden flames.
This powerful Ultimate Fire brought with it extreme temperatures.
In a mere moment, the permafrost and ice layers surrounding Xiao Lin melted, turned into puddles, and then evaporated into steam. Even as Kakumbo retreated twenty meters away, Xiao Lin noticed the changes in the environment.
Because the ice was melting from the high heat, Kakumbo's retreat left visible traces behind. These tracks were exactly what Xiao Lin needed to pinpoint Kakumbo's location.
In an instant, Xiao Lin entered Charging State 2.
"Flowing Shadow Lightning Flash, Blazing Power!"
Powerful electric currents surged around Xiao Lin's fiery mantle.
The lightning stimulated Xiao Lin's cells, causing his blood essence and physical strength to soar.
The next second, he appeared directly in front of Kakumbo. In less than a second, Kakumbo realized that Xiao Lin was already beside him, even though his vision was still sealed by the intense light.
However, as a professional assassin, Kakumbo remained calm. His third soul skill flashed beneath his feet, and a dark shadow manifested beside him once again. This time, Kakumbo's target wasn't Xiao Lin, but the ground beneath their feet.
As the shadow from Kakumbo's third soul skill slammed a fist into the earth, a powerful force of reversal caused the ground to twist violently. This immense power didn't just terraform the landscape; it shifted the directions the two men were facing.
Caught off guard by Kakumbo's move, Xiao Lin nearly lost his footing as the terrain warped beneath him. If one were to look down from the sky, they would see that the earth around Xiao Lin had turned into a giant, spiral pattern.
The terrain had become jagged and uneven, making it impossible for Xiao Lin to locate Kakumbo.
At that moment, Kakumbo stood perfectly still. Due to the shifting terrain, his body was positioned in an exaggerated, twisted stance. Had he not been a professional assassin with physical flexibility far exceeding ordinary people, he would have fallen and been discovered by Xiao Lin long ago.
Damn it! This brat actually possesses such formidable power, Kakumbo thought.
But it's fine. He can't see me right now. Once my soul skill refreshes in three seconds, it will be his end. I just have to endure the high heat radiating from his body for three seconds.
In Xiao Lin's mind, Kakumbo was undoubtedly a powerful opponent.
However, just as Kakumbo predicted, Xiao Lin made a move—but it was the exact opposite of what Kakumbo expected.
Since I don't know where he is, I might as well just activate the second Blazing Power and boost the fire output.
Thinking this, a smirk tugged at the corner of Xiao Lin's mouth.
As he drew a breath, a second Blazing Power within his body surged into existence. Xiao Lin's body became a furnace, with the two Blazing Power rotating like twin soul cores. In that instant, the temperature around Xiao Lin skyrocketed again.
Even the permafrost of the Far North, frozen solid by the eternal cold, was scorched soft and muddy in an instant. If the ground beneath Xiao Lin's feet was like this, the ground beneath Kakumbo was the same.
Before even three seconds had passed, Kakumbo found the high temperature of the Ultimate Fire completely unbearable. Not only that, but because of his own weight, the moment the permafrost was scorched soft, he began to sink into the mud.
Xiao Lin seized this opportunity immediately and charged straight toward Kakumbo.
"Dammit!" Kakumbo cursed aloud in the air.
He felt as though he had encountered a true monster. What kind of freak possessed such powerful defense while simultaneously wielding both Lightning and Fire attribute attacks?
In the next second, Kakumbo fled from his spot as if his life depended on it. He no longer intended to get close to Xiao Lin; he would rely on long-range attacks and hope for a lucky strike on Xiao Lin's vitals.
However, Xiao Lin gave Kakumbo no such chance. He shadowed Kakumbo relentlessly. As long as the surrounding permafrost reacted to Kakumbo's weight, Xiao Lin knew exactly where he was.
Kakumbo fled, and Xiao Lin pursued!
Kakumbo was trapped!
The tides of battle had completely turned.
"Damn it, this brat's speed isn't inferior to mine!" Kakumbo cursed inwardly.
He was an Agility Attack System Battle Soul King!
To be chased and suppressed by a mere Soul Elder—how did this make any sense?
Driven into a corner, Kakumbo's heart turned cold. He abandoned any thought of a fair duel; instead, he decided to target the boy's teammates. With a sharp pivot, Kakumbo accelerated once more, lunging toward Shi Mo and the others.
However, Xiao Lin had already anticipated this move. He knew villains wouldn't stick to a 1v1 fair fight. The moment Kakumbo sped up, Xiao Lin pushed himself even further. This time, Xiao Lin entered Charging State 3.
Thanks to the strengthening of his physical body and blood essence by the Immortal Herbs, using Flowing Shadow Lightning Flash three times in a row was no longer a burden.
Furthermore, to end Kakumbo quickly and prevent any tragedy, Xiao Lin secretly activated his Tool Soul Avatar Physique.
He didn't care about the rapid soul power consumption.
With the compressed soul power in his two dantians and the energy stored within the Vajra Giant Ox Horn, he was confident he could finish Kakumbo right here.
Tool Soul Avatar, activate!
In the next instant, endless blue lightning erupted from Xiao Lin's body.
Following a blinding flash, he flickered across the battlefield and appeared directly in Kakumbo's path. Xiao Lin planted his feet, gripping the Horned Dragon Staff as his body became an immovable wall blocking Kakumbo's way.
"What?! How is this possible?!"
Kakumbo couldn't believe his eyes.
How could a Soul Elder be faster than him?
Gazing at the flames roaring off Xiao Lin and the lightning snaking around his form, Kakumbo hesitated for a second, feeling as if he were looking at a Demon God.
There was no room to dodge.
At such high speeds, it was nearly impossible to fight the body's inertia.
Kakumbo's only option now was to defeat Xiao Lin in the split second they collided. His instincts as a professional assassin quickly took over, and he regained his composure. At such close range, he was confident he could strike directly at Xiao Lin's eyes.
However, Xiao Lin had already foreseen Kakumbo's intent. Under the comprehensive buff of his Tool Soul Avatar, Xiao Lin's mental power had also been enhanced, allowing him to faintly see Kakumbo's silhouette.
The heat is causing the air to refract around him... he must be sweating from my high temperatures, and that sweat is evaporating...
"This is the final blow."
Xiao Lin knew exactly what to do.
He put his full strength into a throw, launching the Horned Dragon Staff.
"Heaven and Earth Toss!"
"Shadow Reversal!"
Both roared simultaneously, unleashing their most powerful strikes.
BOOM!
A violent explosion erupted out of thin air.
The massive blast caused the earth to tremble, sending huge chunks of permafrost flying into the sky before raining back down across the field.
Under the rain of frozen earth, Xiao Lin held a soul power barrier in front of him. He watched in shock as his barrier was twisted into the shape of a "basketball" by the residual force.
It's over.
Xiao Lin sighed as he looked toward the distance, where blood was beginning to seep out from beneath the mangled permafrost.
Kakumbo had been smashed to pieces by the Horned Dragon Staff, driven deep into the frozen earth, and buried forever beneath the falling debris.
