Chapter 348: Chapter 252: Slaying Three People in Succession

Although the Ice Finger Mountain Range wasn’t as high as the Red River Giant Peak, its five tallest peaks also exceeded ten thousand meters. In the mountain range that stretched over thousands of kilometers, there were dozens of peaks over five thousand meters high, with extremely steep and complex terrain.

Between the mountains, there were countless ravines, cliffs, and glaciers, making progress extremely difficult.

After entering the mountains with the group of five, Bai Mang had no choice but to abandon their mounts and proceed on foot, but their pace was still fast.

Ji Xinghuo followed all the way.

In the high mountains, the visibility wasn’t as clear as it was outside; there were many covers, and he occasionally moved closer so that the others would come within the range of electromagnetic induction.

He soon discovered that two members of the group could fly.

One was a Winged Person.

From their weapon equipment, this Winged Person was a Ranger, carrying a bow and arrows on his back and a long sword on his waist, often flying up into the sky to scout, very vigilant of the surroundings.

If it weren’t for Ji Xinghuo’s better eyesight and faster reactions, he would have been discovered by the Winged Person on several occasions.

The other flyer was a legendary Spiritual Power Stringer!

"It should be a Kinetic Stringer," Ji Xinghuo guessed, hiding in a small forest covered with frost. Through a gap, he gazed at a man hovering half a meter above the ground following the group, who based on several instances of electromagnetic induction, appeared to have the strength of a First Dan of legendary rank.

The capabilities of a Spiritual Power Stringer were usually much higher than those of their peers.

Moreover, this man wasn’t just a Kinetic Stringer—like most who harnessed spiritual energy, he merely used it as a support.

He had a subtle Ice Armor around his body.

Ji Xinghuo suspected that the opponent might be an "Ice Lord" evolved from an Ice Spear and Kinetic Stringer—a very powerful professional template.

An Ice Lord’s capabilities in damage, control, and defense were all extremely formidable, far surpassing an ordinary legendary.

This was also evident from the attitudes of the other people; this Ice Lord was the absolute leader of this expedition, even the other legendary, a Steel Warrior, was obedient to him. There were two more, one a Blood Priest of the Highlanders and one a Red Emperor’s Evil Spirit, who both unequivocally revered the Ice Lord.

"He is not an ordinary figure."

"The chances are high that he is from the True Dragon Dynasty again."

Ji Xinghuo eyed the long robe on the Ice Lord, which was in the design style of the True Dragon people, embroidered with light blue dragon patterns, appearing thin but resistant to cold winds.

"What are they looking for?"

The direction Bai Mang led them was far from where the Gale Beasts had appeared, indicating they weren’t there to look for Gale Beasts.

But it couldn’t be ruled out that Bai Mang intentionally took them the wrong way.

For three consecutive days, Bai Mang led these five people through the Ice Finger Mountain Range, overcoming mountains and ridges. They hunted several monsters on the way but they were relatively weak. The Winged Person and the Red Emperor’s Evil Spirit easily defeated them without the Ice Lord needing to make a move.

During this time, Bai Mang was frequently intimidated and tortured.

As they failed to find their target, the Ice Lord and his group grew increasingly impatient, occasionally punishing Bai Mang without debilitating him, keeping him in pain.

Ji Xinghuo watched coldly from the shadows all along.

On the fourth day.

Bai Mang, bruised all over, led the five up a steep ice cliff. They crossed over a ridge and the terrain ahead flattened, revealing a small lake situated between the peaks. The lake was fairly small, less than two thousand meters both in length and width, its surface completely frozen, like a mirror of ice.

The surrounding peaks were not very high, not among the five highest, and such small lakes located amidst the mountains were numerous in the Ice Finger Mountain Range—at least in the dozens.

Ji Xinghuo, observing the ice lake from atop a higher location, suddenly changed his expression.

This must be the place the Ice Lord was looking for.

Sure enough.

The expressions of those five people turned to excitement. The Winged Person said a few words to Bai Mang, who revealed a look of panic and turned to run, his figure immediately disappearing.

But in the next second, Bai Mang was exposed from the air.

His feet were frozen to the ice surface, and white frost crept up his calves, immobilizing his whole body. He looked desperately at the Ice Lord not far away.

Against a legendary Ice Lord, he stood no chance to fight back or to escape.

The Ice Lord’s face bore a look of disdain as he waved his hand.

He didn’t plan to personally do the deed but ordered someone else to kill Bai Mang.

The Winged Person drew his longsword and approached the frozen Bai Mang, his eyes gleaming with cruelty. Bai Mang watched helplessly as the Winged Person approached, the longsword aiming for his heart. He wanted to scream but found his mouth also frozen, completely unable to make a sound.

As Bai Mang was about to close his eyes and wait for death, suddenly, his gaze moved past the Winged Person toward something in the distance, his eyes filled with shock.

The others also sensed something and turned their heads to look.

The Winged Person couldn’t help but turn around.

However, as he was turning, something flew at lightning speed from a great distance in the corner of his eye, closing in swiftly.

The Ice Lord was the first to detect this attack and shouted loudly. An invisible force swept over, entangling it and slightly slowing its speed so it could be seen more clearly—it was a steel spear, coated in ice frost, but the force it contained was too strong. It barely slowed and could not be stopped.

Even the Ice Lord had no time to divert the spear’s direction.

The Winged Person had no time to react either.

With a thud,

the spear struck him precisely in the head, his head bursting open like a watermelon. The spear continued forward, aiming for the Highlander Blood Priest behind him.

Only at that moment did the Ice Lord finally manage to apply enough kinetic energy to divert the spear.

Bang!

The spear embedded itself into the ice, sending shards flying, with only a small portion protruding outwards.

It was only then that the Highlander Blood Priest reacted, crying out in terror. If the spear hadn’t changed direction, he would have met the same fate as the Winged Person.

The crowd looked in the direction from which the spear had come, seeing a highlander running furiously towards them. He was bald with a thick beard, dressed in armor and a bear fur cape, carrying a double-edged battle axe and with four steel lances slung across his back.

The blood marks and tattoos on his body indicated he was also a follower of the Red Emperor.

"Kill him."

Icing Master said deeply.

Despite being of the same clan and followers of the Red Emperor, the two Highlanders on the ice had no reservations. The combat between followers of the Red Emperor served to elevate their spirits even more.

The legendary Steel Warrior swung a great sword, charging in first.

The Blood Priest followed closely behind.

The figure of the Evil Spirit swiftly turned transparent, blending into the air.

Icing Master remained in place. He did not foolishly fly into the air to become a target for enemy spears. Instead, he floated a few meters above the ground, with his ice armor emerging outside his body, becoming thicker and harder.

Icing Master raised a hand, and within a hundred meters around him, the cold wind and moisture instantly condensed into thick ice spears, several meters long and increasing in number. In a blink of an eye, there were hundreds of them, as if invisible hands were holding the ice spears, firing them simultaneously at the approaching enemy.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

The ice spears whistled through the air, their speed extreme.

Ji Xinghuo glanced at the flying ice spears and immediately made a judgment. This distance exceeded the kinetic control range of the Icing Master. The ice spears were merely flying by inertia and could no longer change their direction.

While running, he suddenly accelerated.

The few fastest ice spears landed but were always a step behind Ji Xinghuo, embedding into the ice behind him.

Crack crack crack...

Amid the sound of shattering ice spears, Ji Xinghuo collided head-on with the Steel Warrior.

With a loud bang, the Ice Veiner’s Axe and the Steel Warrior’s great sword collided without any deception. Ji Xinghuo had secretly activated the Rotating Magnetic Field. The Star Gland in his chest released immense Star Power, his strength surging. The "Heavy Strike" of the battle axe took effect.

This blow from the battle axe exploded with a force exceeding a hundred tons!

Clang!

In the sound of clashing metal, the Steel Warrior’s great sword broke into two pieces. Ji Xinghuo’s axe slashed at his body, sparks flying, leaving a deep wound visible to the bone. Just the aftershock of the battle axe’s swing cut a trench several meters long into the ice.

If it were any other profession, they would have been cut in half.

The Steel Warrior ignored the injury on his body, directly accelerating towards Ji Xinghuo. The broken sword in his hand aimed at Ji Xinghuo’s neck.

Ji Xinghuo hadn’t yet turned his axe back, his left hand let go of the handle, and he punched out.

Electric Light Spiral Force!

He intentionally hid his ability to control electricity. The punch looked ordinary, hitting the Steel Warrior in the midsection, but its force was not reduced.

The moment of impact twisted the expression on the Steel Warrior’s face.

The Steel Warrior flew backward.

Countless currents rampaged through his body, causing intense pain and paralysis, rendering his metal-cast-like body useless.

Ji Xinghuo was about to pursue his advantage when from above his head, over a dozen thick ice spears crashed down. He stepped on the ice, shifting left with Flash Step, crossing nearly ten meters instantly, avoiding the ice spears, and appearing in front of the Blood Priest only two to three steps away.

Among the Highlanders, the Blood Priest not only possessed healing abilities but also had even more formidable strength.

Every Blood Priest is a top-notch Berserker.

He raised his huge axe to strike.

However, to Ji Xinghuo, his movements seemed too slow, like playback in slow motion. With a swing of his axe, Ji Xinghuo chopped off the Blood Priest’s head.

At the same time, he opened his mouth and roared.

"Roar!"

A Dragon Roar shook the hearts of those who heard it, with visible sound waves spreading out.

Five ghostly duplicates of Ji Xinghuo appeared around him, translucent in appearance, each exactly the same, converging on him from all sides.

The Evil Spirit possessed a "Firm Will," which could resist the mental intimidation of the Dragon Roar.

Even though the ghostly duplicates were exposed, he stayed calm.

The Evil Spirit could swap places with any of the ghostly duplicates, ignore physical strikes, and even inhabit the enemy’s body to take control.

Ji Xinghuo looked at one of the ghostly duplicates.

This is the main body!

The mind of the Evil Spirit was shocked. Just as he was about to reveal the "Malice Form" to crush Ji Xinghuo’s will, he saw Ji Xinghuo suddenly appear before him, right in front of his face. The battle axe had already been swung towards him. He didn’t have time to dodge. With a thought, he swapped places with a nearby ghostly duplicate.

The swap was completed in an instant.

The Evil Spirit’s view switched, but he found Ji Xinghuo still in front of him.

He thought his "Shape-shift" had failed. On a closer look, indeed the position had changed, yet Ji Xinghuo’s battle axe had already struck him.

"The ghostly form isn’t afraid of physical attacks, even if the weapon bears ice," the Evil Spirit thought.

But suddenly, intense pain surged.

A bolt of lightning appeared out of nowhere in front of his chest, penetrating the ghostly body, with the surrounding magnetic field inexplicably distorting, forcing him to reveal his real body.

"Ah!"

The body of the Evil Spirit was split in two by the battle axe, the scream abruptly stopping.

Ji Xinghuo took another Flash Step.

The last wave of ice spears missed and embedded in the ground. He stopped, standing just outside the Icing Master’s spiritual range, licking his lips with his tongue, his eyes revealing a bloodthirsty glow.

The Icing Master’s heart turned cold, his expression somber.

He glanced at the Steel Warrior, still lying on the ice and not getting up, failing to understand the situation. Was a legendary really killed by a single punch?

Then, he turned his gaze back to Ji Xinghuo, said seriously, "I don’t know you, nor do I remember having a grudge against you."
