Arge cloud of ice energy surged forward and instantly engulfed Greem in blue mist as the Chip continued to beep.
The frost rolled forward and shed violently with Greem’s fire defenses and elementium forcefield. The zing magical shields were frozen into ice shards in an instant. Even the ice floor beneath Greem’s feet couldn’t endure the cold. Frost rapidly appeared over the floor as the ice itself shattered.
Even Shadow Demon, who was hiding in the shadows, was affected by the icews. Ayer of ice crystals appeared on its metal body, and it almost seemed like it would be frozen dead on the spot.
Greem’s flowing sleeves immediately turned hard as steel. The frost started to spread from the corner of his sleeves, intent on turning him into an ice sculpture.
The towering skeletal ice dragon roared and charged over.
Should Greem be frozen in ice, he would probably be crushed to pieces by the dragon before he could break free.
Compared to their Dragontongue magic, dragons preferred to end their battles in the most primal, violent way possible!
“Go, Shadow Demon!”
They had only just met, yet the ferocious old dragon had almost forced Greem into a corner. Thus, Greem didn’t dare drop his guard. He shouted an order to Shadow Demon, all while the Tome of Corruption’s pages flipped rapidly in his hand. Ugly wights filled with horrible gues were summoned, one after another.
These wights were mostly First Grade and werepletely useless on a Fourth Grade battlefield. The moment Greem summoned them, they were instantly frozen into sculptures by a passing cold wind.
However, when the skeletal dragon thrashed past, these sculptures erupted, releasingrge clouds of yellow poison mist, eroding Nax’s blue bones and causing ck spots to appear.
“gue poison...dammit! This is gue poison! You bastard! How dare you release gue poison in my chambers! I will kill you!” The infuriated dragon lunged forward, its blue jaws snapping at the quickly retreating Greem.
At this point, Greem could no longer hide his powers.
Emerald light shed from the Tome of Corruption as Greem was surrounded by a poison halo.
The focusing crystal on his forehead glowed as bright as a star as his Spirit violently surged into his fire coral staff. The disguised Orb of the Fire God began to glow brilliantly, emitting the prismatic radiance unique to ultra-grade items.
The next second, all light in the room dimmed. There was only the radiance from the increasingly bright orb. The Orb of the Fire God was like the bright moon in the sky. When it appeared, all other sources of light seemed to lose their color. It was the only thing in the room burning with all its ferocity. Its temperature and brightness rose without stopping; it was...a sun.
Indeed, the Orb of the Fire God was like a miniature sun descending upon the ground. It let off horrifying heat and light as its power continued to rise.
Shock and horror appeared in Nax’s blue soulfire as it charged forward. It could sense that the terrifying sun zing in the young adept’s hands was an ultra-grade artifact not inferior to the Ancient Reliquary of Deep Winter.
What was scarier was the fact that the adept seemed to be able to control the devastating fire energy within that artifact freely!
Nax could feel this miniature sun rise before it, all while it continued to approach like a moth to the me. Nax let out a terrified roar and extended both blue wings to their limits. The dragon beat its wings with all it had and barely managed to kill its momentum.
Nax’s ws sunk deep into the ice beneath its feet, ripping twenty deep ridges into the ground.
However, just as its rush came to a screeching halt, Greem’s charging attack had reached its peak as well. Greem waved both his hands together, and a tremendously violent stream of fire energy shot out of the Orb of the Fire God. The mes turned into a one-meter-thick pir of fire that struck the skeletal ice dragon’s body.
The instant the pir of fire struck, the dragon felt like it had been thrown into a terrifying, zing cauldron. Every part of its body started burning furiously, from inside to outside.
What was even more horrifying was the fact that this pir of fire had also ignited the surging ice energy in its body. Even the ice energy was burning now.
Nax reared its head and let out a roar of agony. It was no longer blue ice energy that surged out of its maw, nostrils, eye sockets, and ears now– it was red, zing mes.
This single attack had injured Nax’s very soul origin. The dragon retreated into the mist like a whimpering puppy.
Kanganas was rapidly approaching the tall tform in the depths of the mist. All sorts of strange undead swarmed all around him.
Because of these undead wandering everywhere, Kanganas managed to figure out the approximate location of the tform.
However, while he gleefully snuck towards his destination, he abruptly stopped in his tracks and turned back to look into the mist.
There, a thousand meters away, a terrifying energy aura was rising. It was so powerful that it had managed to suppress the ice energy that was everywhere in this pce. When he felt the traces of heat that pierced through the mist and the oddly searing consciousness attached to it, Kanganas couldn’t help but be nervous, even asposed and cold as he usually was.
Even though he was quite a distance away, and the chaotic ice energy was obscuring his senses, Kanganas still managed to identify the source of this energy aura in an instant.
Greem...it was Greem, the human adept who called himself Fireman!
Since when did he be so powerful?
Thest time they had fought in Morrian ne, he had over a seventy percent chance to kill Greem. It was precisely because of this certainty that Kanganas had boldly invited Greem on this mission to y the dragon.
However, judging by the energy aura he was radiating, Kanganas probably did not have any chance of winning. The appearance of such a powerful individual in the party made Kanganas nervous. He was no longer sure if his scheme would seed now.
However, Kanganas had no idea that even as he was shocked by Greem’s eruption of power, Ts had already snuck onto the tform and was searching desperately for the Ancient Reliquary of Deep Winter.
The instant Greem’s energy aura erupted in the distance, Ts lifted his head from the magical runes he was analyzing. He also looked towards the distant battlefield.
“This power,” Ts couldn’t help but brood in silence, “Even if they aren’t a Fifth Grade, they aren’t far away now! Did that human adept use some sort of explosive magical equipment, or was this his true power? Either way, we would have to be cautious around this fellow now!”
Due to his unique energy system, Ts wasn’t actually afraid of these same-grade opponents of his. However, out of respect for an ultra-grade powerhouse, he had no intention of finding trouble for himself.
Ultra-Grade powerhouses. Those were terrifying individuals, even in the eyes of the starspirits!
Never mind. Let them fight their own fights. He had best find a way to get the Ancient Reliquary in his hands first.
Even Ts felt excited at the thought of soon possessing an ultra-grade item.
While the two powerful spellcasters were scheming their own ns, Sshina was cursing furiously in a corner of the ice pce.
“Bastard! Bastard! Bastard! Kanganas, where did you find this absolute monster! I thought the ice dragon was a freak, but now, it seems like the real freak had been hiding by my side all along. Bastards! This battle is way beyond my level already! I can’t stay here any longer, or I will turn into a stepping stone for those bastards.”
Sshina cursed angrily as she lunged at the edge of the mist as quick as lightning.
The battle had escted severely at this point. It was no longer a fight that small fry like herself could be involved in now. If she insisted on staying here despite the situation, she would be the variable that all thepetitors would focus on getting rid of first.
It couldn’t be helped. Only the most powerful individuals of the party had the right to obtain a powerful treasure. At the very best, the second and third most powerful could give it a try. However, the best a small fry like herself could get were some leftovers.
However, the fact that the inconspicuous human adept was thergest raid boss hiding in the party was beyond her expectations. Sshina became nervous at the thought of all the cold words she had directed at the human along the way. She started to curse herself for herck of foresight.
“Bastards! Bastards! All bastards! They’re all so powerful, and they just want to pretend like they are the rookies. Hmph! I curse you all! May none of you leave this pce of ice!”
Sshina spat and slithered out of the ice pce in the blink of an eye.
