Chapter 230: Ang''s Weakness


    The water, the further away they got from the shore seemed to have energy dampening properties and made it harder for them to sense what was underwater, and it was only because of Lex''s and E''s extremely sharp senses that they sensed its presence a second before they were attacked by it.


    The Jade Empress sensed it a few instants after due to her spiritual sense not being able to be spread as far as Lex as she didn''t have much energy and didn''t want to risk disturbing Anglea''s cultivation.


    Ang, hearing that Lex wanted her to take on the beast and use it to test and show how capable she was smiled and she wasn''t the same weak, little girl she was before.


    She had be a cultivation fanatic that wasn''t scared of facing anyone and was cold to the world and everything else that happened around her, apart from her twopanions who would draw out the warmth of her saint healing spiritual roots.


    "Just leave it to me," said Ang, coincidentally as the surface of arge area of the sea around them all turned to ice.


    "I will show you just how much the training I have done has paid off" she mumbled to herself as she coldly red at the Giant Shark Sea Beast that was hundreds of timesrger than her.


    There was strong bloodlust and killing intent leaking from the Giant Shark Sea Beast and it seemed to have a strong desire to kill anything around it.


    No wonder it was able to be so strong after consuming any living creature that it could around it and its entire body was covered in all types of different scars, giving it a frightening appearance.


    It had hundreds of teeth that were stained red with blood and it had an extremely tough exterior and muscr figure, with its fins also appearing to be sharp and dangerous.


    Ang had be quite an experienced fighter, but it was the first time facing a Golden Mortal Being and she knew that battles between Golden Mortals could be very quick, orst for hours.


    The beast seemed to be at a higher cultivation level than Ang, but the gap wasn''t toorge and the size difference didn''t faze Ang in the slightest.


    "What a disgusting creature. Today you shall perish" Stated Ang who was emanating a bone-chilling aura.


    She closed her eyes and an instantter, hundreds of ice spikes thrust out of the frozen part of the sea around her and pierced into the Giant Shark Beast.


    The speed and power at which the ice spikes thrust upwards were incredible, however, they weren''t enough to pierce deeply into the sea beast and it barely pierced through its skin.


    Despite that, Ang was still calm and confident, not expecting such a simple attack to be enough to down such arge and powerful beast.


    The giant sea beast was enraged and became wild as it suddenly, and surprisingly,unched itself into the air, aiming to attack Lex and E who hovered above it.


    However, despite the speed and power that itunched itself dozens of metres into the air with, E and Lex merely moved higher into the air and left the beast for Ang to deal with.


    The beast as it fell downwards aimed itself towards Ang and the force behind its fall was more than enough to crush her and would have caused an earthquake of caused onnd.


    Even with therge and frightening beast falling from the air towards her at great speeds, Ang was still rxed and calm and also didn''t move from where she stood.


    Lex was ready, willing and able to save Ang by simply teleporting to her side and punching the beast away with ease, but he trusted her capabilities and watched her, interested to see what she would do next.


    Ang still had her eyes closed, which seemed to increase her focus, control and connection with everything around her as suddenly formed a dome of ice around her.


    The stone didn''t appear thick, but she was able to manipte and harden the molecr structure of the ice and was reinforcing out with her energy, forming an imprable shield.


    The Shark Beast was only able to crack the dome of ice, which was already an impressive feat, then bounced off and dove into the water.


    Despite the top of the sea being frozen, it would be impossible to freeze the way down to the bottom of the sea and Ang''s ice was only a metre thick, so the shark was easily able to prate through.


    Diving deep down into the water, it jumped back out and attempted to sh Ang with its fins, but Ang slid backwards and began manoeuvring on the ice, dodging all the destructive attacks of the Great Shark Beast.


    They had reached a stalemate.


    The Golden Mortal Shark Sea Beast was unable to wound Ang, while Ang, who seemed to have the upper hand, was unable to deal the sea beast a strong enough blow to finish off the beast.


    It was difficult to take down a Golden Mortal, especially one with high defensive capabilities, and they were was no reason to continue their battle.


    Lex who had watched the entire time, was confident that he could take down the sea beast using only a single attack and he could also clearly see Ang''s weakness.


    It was one that she didn''t realise previously since most of her opponents were rtively defenceless against her cold and ice attacks, however, she couldn''t expect such tactics to work against Golden Mortal and even stronger beings.


    Being versatile and capable against all kinds of opponents and in all sorts of environments is very important and what separates average cultivators from great cultivators.


    Overall she was very powerful and had great potential, however, she had a grave weakness that Lex was about to point out and he was hoping that she took his criticism well and tried to improve on it.
