Chapter 241: Explosive Ice Orb

Angela had streamed most of the energy she had left into the Explosive Ice Orb attack she had formed and the skill was much more complex and difficult than what met the eye.

Not only had she managed to succeed in forming an Ice Explosion attack, but she had also managed to control when the explosion would occur.

Ella and Lex had realised that after seeing her unleash the attack, but still remain focused and seemed to still be in control of the Explosive Ice Orb.

She retained complete control over it and could change its trajectory as she pleased, and that was exactly what he did.

The bandit tribe leader had been impressively able to lean backwards so far with his great speed, flexibility and reflexes, which allowed him to dodge the Explosive Ice Orb that moved at alarming speeds.

However, just like Lex had told her to, Angela didn't underestimate her opponent and prepared for the worst-case scenario, which would be if he managed to avoid her attack.

Smiling, the bandit leader believed that he had managed to dodge the attack that had clearly used a large amount of Angela's energy, however hearing Lex's mockery and sensing danger, he suddenly realised what was occurring.

He was experienced and capable, so could sense faint energy that was still being emanated from Angela that seemed to be controlling the energy orb, but by the time he realised, it was too late.

Angela controlled the Explosive Ice Orb to strike downwards onto the chest of the bandit tribe leader and, upon impact, an extremely large explosive power was released.

However, unlike what they had expected or what they were used to, the explosion released a wave of extreme cold and was a cold explosion, which was unbelievable to watch and experience.

The explosion left an extremely large wound on the chest of the bandit leader, even after he had managed to reinforce his chest with energy, and that wasn't the only effect of the Ice Explosion Orb.

It also seeped large amounts of cold energy into the body that was attacked and the explosion, instead of releasing flames due to the impact and rapid release of heat, released ice.

In an instant, the bandit leader had suffered a great attack and wound to the chest, had been injected with cold energy throughout his body and had also been encompassed in extremely large amounts of ice.

The entire area around him had formed a large iceberg, with the bandit leader stuck and frozen within it.

If he was unable to break out, he would suffocate and his body was shutting down due to the extreme cold he was experiencing from the ice around him and ice energy that had been forced into his body.

It was the perfect attack that was a sure kill on most occasions, however; it seemed that the bandit leader was yet to be killed.

Considering the large gap in cultivation level and the amount of damage that she had dealt the bandit tribe leader in a single attack, Angela's Explosive Ice Orb was unbelievably powerful and capable.

However, a Mortal King with such great power wouldn't always be taken down so easily and the bandit tribe leader managed to break out of the ice and unleashed a great burst of energy.

Along with that, the large wound on his chest had visibly begun to heal, but it was clear that he was using a forbidden method that was burning his life force in order to do so.

At the rate he was burning his life force, he would only be able to hold out for a few minutes before killing himself, but he had become so angry and was so unwilling to lose everything he had worked and fought for, that he wasn't going to give up.

Burning his life force granted him great power, but was also quickly killing him and causing him great pain, which disorientated him and made his actions rely on instinct.

Angela hadn't expected him to be able to survive her attack, which he wouldn't have been able to do without the forbidden technique that he used.

The bandit tribe leader let out a beast-like roar and launched himself towards Angela with speed and power that greatly surpassed what he was able to unleash before.

Since Angela wasn't prepared and wasn't expecting him to survive her attack, she was unable to avoid or block the fist that the bandit tribe leader was attacking her with.

As the fist neared her, Lex suddenly teleported to her side and punched the side of the bandit tribe leader, sending him flying away from Angela.

It was only because Lex's attack was sudden and unexpected that he was able to save Angela, but the bandit tribe leader had truly become a monstrous being at that moment.

Being able to wield, manipulate and use Spacial Energy was something that was very rare and never seen before on that island, which was why the bandit tribe leader wasn't expecting such an attack, but he wasn't wounded by it in the slightest.

He was almost invincible in the state he was in unless someone was able to deal him a definitive and powerful blow to the heart or head that would surely kill him, or were able to suppress him until his life force ran out.

The bandit leader's skin began to decompose and his appearance became disfigured, however, blinded by fury and unwilling to back down, he continued onwards and charged towards Lex.

Lex decided to face him head-on and was completely outmatched in terms of speed and strength, which had never occurred to him for a long time with the power of his body, however, he was still managing to hold him back.

Each of the bandit tribe leader's blows would cause great shockwaves and were so fast they could barely be seen by the onlookers, however, the pain, increase in power and draining of his lifeforce had also caused his attacks to become sloppy.

He was no longer as skilled in combat as he was previously and that was what Lex was planning on exploiting.
