In the world of ice and snow, s.h.i.+ Yan was waiting for the Ice Cold Flame in silence.
A long time pa.s.sed after the pair of pretty sisters had collected enough Cold Heart Gra.s.s and left. They were always careful, as if they were guarding against something.
s.h.i.+ Yan didn’t pay much attention to their story.
After four hours, the Ice Cold Flame had finally come back, turning into a white flame floating in front of him. It looked a bit distressed, and even its flame didn’t flicker lively.
"What happened?"
"The Cold Chalcedony exists. But someone has taken it. I didn’t find it anywhere."
s.h.i.+ Yan smiled as if he had known the results beforehand.
Since the Bitter Cold Land was under the control of the Ice Emperor Land, and there weren’t many types of cultivating materials there, the authority should have taken all materials they could reach in this area. The Cold Chalcedony that his Ice Cold Flame mentioned was extremely precious, which was much useful to warriors cultivating ice cla.s.s methods.
Most of the warriors of the Ice Emperor City had been cultivating using methods of ice cla.s.s. If they knew this cold snow mountain could produce the Cold Chalcedony, they would never let it slip away.
"It’s alright if we couldn’t get it. We still have plenty of time. Perhaps we could have it during our journey."
He comforted the Ice Cold Flame and then asked it to come back to the Blood Vein Ring.
The Ice Cold Flame got into the ring and gradually quieted down.
Looking at the fluttering snowflakes covering the place, s.h.i.+ Yan didn"t linger, gliding through the coldest mountain and flying towards the Ice Emperor City.
One day later, he suddenly stopped at a shorter snow mountain, furrowing his brows and looking at the event happening in front of him.
That pair of beautiful sisters were in trouble.
Seven warriors wearing the uniform of the Heaven Temple were besieging the beautiful girls. They seemed to want to kill them both.
From five hundred meters away, he concentrated to observe and then let out a low shout. A strange smile cracked on his face.
This world was small indeed.
The Heaven Temple’s warriors, who were surrounding the beautiful sisters, had gold-colored silky fibers shooting out of their fingers. Apparently, they were from the Ning family of the Heaven Temple.
Different from the other new outstanding forces of the Divine Great Land like the Fighting Union, the Heaven Temple had a long history. It was formed by several ancient families, and the Ning family was one of them. This family was famous for their insects and worm taming skills. His Devouring Gold Silkworm came from this family.
He had b.u.mped into Ning Ze from this family in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. The Devouring Gold Silkworm staying in his Blood Vein Ring also belonged to this family.
The Ning family of the Heaven Temple.
They were using the secret technique gold silky fibers. Gold light radiated brilliantly from those silkworm fibers dancing in the air like gold snakes, surrounding the two sisters and narrowing their clamps. As this situation accelerated, these two pretty sisters would have no leeway not long afterward.
Apparently, the Devouring Gold Silkworm could feel the surging energy of the gold silk fibers, and it flew out of the Blood Vein Ring.
This Devouring Gold Silkworm was a level 7 beast. However, after taking in four drops of the Immortal Blood, it had grown up several times bigger, with light dazzling on its golden armor. It seemed that this beast would enter the realm of a level 8 beast soon.
Beasts of worm cla.s.s had to struggle really hard to evolve. However, once they could evolve, their powers would be enhanced greatly.
So, in the world of demonic beasts, beasts with small volume could be more significant after they had their powers improved. For example, the King of Demonic Insect; compared to the same level demonic beasts with a larger build, this level 8 beast was much tougher to play with, as it was agile with had its power concentrated to a greater extent. Also, these small build beasts usually had special additional skills.
If the Devouring Gold Silkworm could make one step further to the realm of level 8 beasts, it could reveal some innate ability, just like the martial spirits of warriors; really magical.
As soon as the Devouring Gold Silkworm appeared, warriors of the Ning family all sensed it. They stopped attacking Bing Wei and Bing Qiang, all looking at s.h.i.+ Yan with surprise.
"Number Four!"
One warrior exclaimed, his face excited.
"Is that the Number Four!"
The Ning family’s warriors screamed, leaving the pair of beautiful sisters aside and storming towards s.h.i.+ Yan.
s.h.i.+ Yan frowned, threw the Devouring Gold Silkworm a glance and discreetly sent it a message. "What’s going on?"
"The gold silk fibers they’re using come from my body. I want to take them back." The Devouring Gold Silkworm told him, "These strands of gold silk were taken from me. They’re a part of my body. When they come back to my body, my general powers could be enhanced. I want to take them back!"
s.h.i.+ Yan was astounded.
Not waiting for his order, the Devouring Gold Silkworm flew out all of a sudden. Gold light dazzled from its body, rippling out like waves of water. Surging energy of metal cla.s.s shot towards the seven warriors of the Ning family.
"d.a.m.n insect! You dare?"
The Ning warrior who took the lead was a bearded guy with peak Sky Realm strength. He snorted, as a small bell emerged in his palm. Golden light flashed in his eyes, as a strange force started to pour into the bell in his palm, making it jingle with strange sound waves. The Devouring Gold Silkworm trembled and screamed ear-splittingly. It seemed that it got affected by these waves.
That bell was a secret treasure used to control the Devouring Gold Silkworm. The Ning family had experience in raising and training Devouring Gold Silkworm. They knew what kind of noise the Devouring Gold Silkworm was afraid of. The sound wave that came from the bell was the archenemy of the Devouring Gold Silkworm, which could shake its incomplete soul to weaken it and force it to give in.
"Master."
The Devouring Gold Silkworm sent him a message by its feeble soul, seeking s.h.i.+ Yan’s help.
Roar!
s.h.i.+ Yan gathered his strength, roaring loudly towards the leading Ning warrior. His voice was like a tsunami storming forward, breaking the sound waves of the bell.
The Devouring Gold Silkworm"s golden halo strengthened again, rippling out. This made the warriors of the Ning family pale as if they saw their archenemies, trying to avoid it.
The golden halo of the Devouring Gold Silkworm was like a light sword that a warrior could generate, extremely sharp. Once they got hit, it would slash through them.
Warriors of the Ning family understood that clearly, so they were trying their best to avoid that gold halo.
"Kill that brat!"
The leader warrior of the Ning was shaking his bell, pointing at s.h.i.+ Yan and shouting at his men.
The other six Sky Realm warriors split up, pincer-attacking s.h.i.+ Yan.
There were three Third Sky of Sky Realm warriors and three Second Sky of Sky Realm warriors among the six of them. With their first moves, they were as swift as six electric currents shooting towards s.h.i.+ Yan, attempting to kill him in one strike.
"Cold Thorn Ice Beam!"
Bing Qiang’s cold, sharp voice arose on time. A misty energy suddenly swarmed over.
In the shower of snowflakes in front of s.h.i.+ Yan, the cold air had cracked like a giant ice block into ice beams. Cold air expanded from inside the beams just like sharp swords, stabbing the six Sky Realm warriors, who were fiercely storming towards s.h.i.+ Yan, from behind.
"Cold Ice Energy!"
Bing Wei let out a slight shout, thrusting her white pair of hands into the ground.
Countless snowflakes gathered to form two snow wolves, which looked really lively and formidable, storming towards the bearded warrior.
The two sisters understood that it was their chance. If s.h.i.+ Yan died, the next ones to be killed would be them. Thus, they attacked the other without any hesitation.
As they were cultivating the ice technique, in such a place with abundant of snow and ice, their powers were strengthened greatly. Their ambush had released the pressure on s.h.i.+ Yan.
Three out of six warriors attacking s.h.i.+ Yan couldn’t help but turn back and counter the ice beams shooting towards them, leaving the other three to deal with s.h.i.+ Yan.
"Scorpio Poisonous Miasma!"
Three warriors of the Ning family coming to him all waved their sleeves. Green poisonous smoke came out violently, together with a strong gust. The poisonous smoke condensed into a scorpion in the sky, swinging its tail while das.h.i.+ng towards him with a pungent smell.
The scorpion made from poisonous smoke was made of a corrosive gas. As it was coming closer, even the air around ot was trembling, as green liquid dripped down from the vapors.
s.h.i.+ Yan didn’t change his expression, but his eyes gradually got colder. The Dark Light s.h.i.+eld was activated.
He slightly raised his left hand, waving in the void. Many palms shot out from the Dark Light s.h.i.+eld just like claws of ghosts, s.n.a.t.c.hing the toxic scorpion condensed by the poisonous gas. The big scorpion then split up into numerous smaller scorpions, just like a ripped off sheet of fabric, scattering away.
Thousand Hand s.h.i.+ft!
This was a technique he learned from the Ice Cold Flame. Just like the Electric s.h.i.+ft and Phantom s.h.i.+ft, it was a technique that used the Profound Qi. When he urged it, it would appear as thousands of hands striking together. In a short time, it could create a twisted area with a strong energy. The stronger the energy was, the more terrible the twisted s.p.a.ce got.
As soon as the poisonous scorpion was scattered, s.h.i.+ Yan stormed forward without using the negative energies. An explosion burst out in the void, striking forward like a fiery flame, aiming for one of the Second Sky of Sky Realm warrior.
"You want to die?"
That warrior just smiled coldly, without having any trace of fear. The bones of his entire body were rattling like a toxic scorpion as he twisted his body. Green miasma gushed out one wave after from his ten fingers. The dark, cold air swarmed over, covering s.h.i.+ Yan.
s.h.i.+ Yan’s face and limbs were motionless, his body shooting out like a sh.e.l.l.
Crack Crack!
Ten fingers of that man clamped on s.h.i.+ Yan"s head, but they couldn"t bear such a strong force and his joints burst off.
Right after that, s.h.i.+ Yan hit his chest, as strong as a collapsing mountain, bringing the force of a ten thousand soldiers.
BANG!
That man simply exploded. The bones all over his body were smashed broken, jutted out from the flesh. He looked pathetically terrible.
He had underestimated s.h.i.+ Yan’s st.u.r.dy body. After his Petrification Martial Spirit had mutated, s.h.i.+ Yan himself could be considered as a small mountain. If he struck with all of his force, he could truly make things explode. The poor man could have never imagined that, so he was bound to fall in such a catastrophic way.
