The Invincible Sect Leader

The cold wind howled through the frozen canyon, whipping up snow as the warriors of the Frozen Fang Sect tightened their encirclement. Their leader, the dark-robed man, took another step forward, eyes sharp as daggers.

"You have taken what belongs to us. Surrender the beast, and we will grant you a painless death."

Chan Li sighed, stretching his arms. "You know, I was having a nice day. Found a cool beast, named it Fluffy, was about to ride it into the sunset now I have to deal with you lot? Annoying."

The sect leader's lips curled into a sneer. "Then prepare to suffer."

The Battle Begins

Without warning, the Frozen Fang Sect warriors sprang into action. A dozen figures shot forward, their movements swift as phantoms, their weapons gleaming with an eerie blue light.

Chan Li's eyes glowed with excitement. "Finally, some exercise."

Lan Xue unsheathed her sword, her expression serious. "Don't underestimate them. They're strong."

Yan Ling cracked his knuckles. "Good. I was getting bored."

The first wave of enemies descended upon them, ice-forged blades slashing through the frigid air. Chan Li smirked, sidestepping an attack with effortless grace before driving his palm into an enemy's chest, sending them flying backward.

Lan Xue's sword met another warrior's strike, the clash of steel echoing through the canyon. She twirled mid-air, her blade dancing in elegant arcs, cutting through their formation like a winter storm.

Yan Ling, meanwhile, let out a wicked laugh as he grabbed two enemies by the heads and slammed them together. "Fluffy, get in on this!"

The massive ice beast let out a deafening roar before lunging into the fray, swiping its colossal paw and sending multiple foes sprawling. The battlefield turned into chaos as the Heavenly Mystical Sect fought back with overwhelming force.

The Sect Leader Joins the Fray

Seeing his disciples being overpowered, the dark-robed sect leader stepped forward, his presence alone sending a chilling wave through the battlefield. He raised his hand, and the ground beneath them froze solid, jagged ice spikes bursting forth.

Chan Li's grin widened. "Now we're talking."

The sect leader unleashed a barrage of ice spears, each one sharp enough to pierce through steel. Chan Li dodged with fluid precision, weaving through the deadly projectiles before countering with a devastating palm strike. A golden ripple of energy burst forth, shattering the ice spears in an instant.

The sect leader's eyes flickered with surprise. "You are stronger than you look. But you are still beneath me."

He raised both hands, chanting an ancient incantation. The air turned thick with frost as an enormous ice dragon materialized behind him, its crystalline body glimmering ominously. With a single command, the beast surged forward, its maw opening wide to swallow Chan Li whole.

Chan Li Unleashes His True Strength

Yan Ling and Lan Xue barely had time to react before the massive ice dragon engulfed Chan Li in its frozen jaws.

"No way!" Yan Ling shouted.

But before anyone could mourn, the dragon's body trembled violently. Cracks formed along its icy surface, and suddenly a deafening explosion shattered it to pieces!

From the mist of shattered ice, Chan Li emerged, his aura blazing like a celestial inferno.

"That's cute," he said, brushing ice from his shoulder. "Now let me show you something real."

Golden energy erupted around him, forming the shape of a massive Tai Chi symbol. The swirling energy pulsed, bending space itself. The sect leader's expression changed from arrogance to pure horror.

"Impossible! Tai Chi True Demonic Energy?! That shouldn't exist!"

Chan Li smirked. "Yet here I am."

With a single motion, he launched forward, palm glowing with divine and demonic power combined. The sect leader barely had time to react before Chan Li's strike connected

A deafening boom resounded as the sect leader was sent flying across the icy plains, crashing through multiple ice formations before finally coming to a stop. He coughed up blood, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"This… this isn't possible…"

Chan Li walked up to him, looming over the fallen enemy. "I don't care who you are. Touch Fluffy again, and I'll erase your entire sect."

The man's eyes flickered with fear. "M-mercy…"

Chan Li rolled his eyes. "Tch. You're not even worth finishing off. Scram."

The remaining Frozen Fang Sect disciples quickly grabbed their unconscious leader and fled in terror. Silence settled over the battlefield.

Yan Ling clapped. "Well, that was dramatic."

Lan Xue shook her head. "As expected of our Sect Master."

Fluffy let out a happy growl, wagging its massive tail.

Chan Li stretched. "Alright, what's next?"
