Chapter 1227

In the arena, Guillermo did not move at all, but snowflakes began to fall from the protective shield.

Gu Ding could clearly feel that these snowflakes did not have any offensive power, but they carried an icy chill.

"This move is called Icebound World," Guillermo said calmly to Gu Ding. "In an area covered in ice and snow, you'll quickly lose your body temperature. Eventually, every cell in your body will be frozen."

As soon as he finished speaking, a thick layer of frost quickly formed on the ground.

Gu Ding felt a bone-piercing chill penetrating his skin and seeping into every corner of his body.

"Is this the Path of Frost? If his cultivation wasn't suppressed, I'm afraid even my soul would be frozen in an instant … "Gu Ding knew that he could not wait any longer. At the rate the temperature was dropping, he estimated that he would be frozen in less than half an hour.

Many of the people watching the battle did not quite understand the meaning of Guillermo's move. That was because ordinary cold did not mean anything to Gu Ding, who was a True King. What they did not know was that the chill that Guillermo had released in the arena could even freeze a True King at its peak.

The faces of the powerhouses who saw this changed slightly. They did not expect Guillermo to become so powerful. There were also people who began to think that Gu Ding's victory might end here.

Gu Ding also knew that his opponent's move was not that simple. He must have a backup plan.

Nevertheless, he still rushed toward his opponent. In an instant, he appeared less than a meter in front of his opponent. However, he quickly realized that there was a transparent barrier in front of him.

He brandished his fists and bombarded the barrier, but very quickly, he was sent flying backward. He crashed into the protective shield at the edge of the arena.

This was the first time his body had crashed into a protective shield since he had participated in the arena.

"Rebound?" Gu Ding came to his senses. The first thing he did was raise his head to look at the invisible barrier.

The people watching the battle were a little surprised. Gu Ding had been a good three meters away from Guillermo, but strangely, Gu Ding had attacked first. What was even stranger was that Gu Ding had been sent flying backward, but Guillermo had not been hit at all.

"What just happened?!"

This was the first question that came to many people's minds when they saw this scene.

"This defensive layer is what I call the Mirror. Not only did it have an extremely powerful defense, but it also had a reflection effect. Whatever kind of attack you give it, it will return the same kind of attack. I'm like a person in a mirror. All of your attacks will be blocked outside of the mirror. You won't be able to touch me, "Gilmour explained the principle behind this technique.

"A mirror?"

Gu Ding furrowed his eyebrows slightly. The bone-chilling cold continued to penetrate his body. If he was blocked by this layer of mirror and was unable to touch Guillermo, the only outcome that awaited him would be being sealed in ice.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Ding seemed to have some ideas. Once again, he appeared in front of the 'mirror' in a flash.

He reached out and pressed on the invisible isolation layer. He could clearly feel the bone-piercing chill. It was obvious that this layer was also made of ice. Moreover, it was just a touch. The 'mirror' didn't attack on its own.

After fumbling around for a while, Gu Ding suddenly stopped in his tracks and pointed a finger at the 'mirror'. He even used the power of space to point at it.

However, in the next moment, his entire finger exploded as if it had been attacked.

Gu Ding stood where he was and stared blankly at his finger, which had quickly repaired itself.

After a while, he turned around and walked in the opposite direction, away from Guillermo.

Below the arena, even those who were watching the live broadcast could not understand what Gu Ding was doing.

"Is Gu Ding going to admit defeat? Why is he walking in the opposite direction? "

"He must have determined that the defensive layer can't be broken and is ready to give up."

"What exactly is he going to do?"

…

Gu Ding walked to a corner of the arena and stopped at a position furthest away from Guillermo. Then, he stretched out his hand toward the void. A giant black bow slowly appeared in his hand.

The bow was nearly one and a half meters long. It was a superb Heaven-grade God Weapon.

In Gu Ding's other hand, a golden arrow appeared. It was also a Heaven-grade God Weapon. Gu Ding had prepared it before participating in the Path of Kings just in case. However, he had never used it and had kept it until now.

"A bow and arrow?!" Many people were surprised.

"Isn't Gu Ding a combat cultivator who specializes in close combat? When did he become an arrow cultivator? "

"Is he going to use his weapon to his advantage?"

This was because Gu Ding had never used a bow and arrow since participating in the arena battles. This was the first time he had revealed his weapon.

'There's no other way. I'll have to reveal my trump card,' Gu Ding thought to himself.

He placed two fingers on the tail feathers of the arrow and aimed the tip of the arrow in Guillermo's direction. Then, he slowly drew the black heavy bow in his hand.

The tip of his finger touched the arrow, and one hundred and eighty secret rule inscriptions began to circulate.

From his posture, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Gu Ding was a true archery powerhouse. They could feel that Gu Ding had disappeared from the arena. All that was left was the bow and the arrow. And the target that was locked on by the tip of the arrow …

The moment the tip of the arrow locked on to him, Guillermo felt as if he was being targeted by something terrifying. His instincts were telling him that the arrow was very dangerous. He even felt that his hair was standing on end. This feeling was obviously not caused by the bone-chilling cold.

The people watching the battle from below the arena could not help but hold their breaths. They watched the scene in front of them with rapt attention, waiting to see the outcome of the arrow.

After Gu Ding's arrow had locked on to his target, he paused for a full three seconds before the golden arrow was released from the bowstring. It turned into a sharp golden ray that pierced through the barrier of space and collided violently with the 'mirror'.

Crack …

The sound of the mirror shattering could be heard. The 'mirror' that had been completely transparent and invisible finally revealed itself like a glass wall that had exploded. Everyone could clearly see the cracks on its surface.

However, everyone's attention was quickly drawn to the half of the arrow that was embedded in the 'mirror'. Although Gu Ding's arrow had shattered the mirror, it had still been intercepted by the 'mirror'.

Many people who saw this scene felt that it was a pity.

However, the half of the arrow suddenly shattered, and a small white ray burst out. Before anyone could react, it had pierced through Guillermo's chest.

Even Guillermo himself was dumbfounded as he looked down at the fist-sized hole in his chest. At the same time, the system announced the result.

[Winner: Gu Ding!]

[Congratulations to newcomer Gu Ding for his 300th consecutive victory …]

Then, Guillermo was transported out of the arena.

Gu Ding, on the other hand, looked down at his legs. Frost had started to form on them.

"I've underestimated him. It turns out that he only needed less than fifteen minutes to completely freeze me …"
