Chapter 1344 - 677: Ice Sphere Mutant Bug
This Shadow Dragon can transform into a shadow form.
If you want to hurt it, physical attacks are absolutely ineffective.
Yet at this moment, Liang Yuan clearly feels its feeble aura, with a wave of chilling superpower energy surging through its body.
Even if it transforms into a shadow, it cannot dispel this energy.
"Woo—"
The Shadow Dragon lets out a wail and whimpers at him.
Liang Yuan reaches out to touch its huge head and says, "What happened? Who on earth hurt you? Was it Chang Yuntao?"
Liang Yuan cannot understand; if Chang Yuntao had this ability, how could he be beaten by him into a retreat and hide in Mist City?
He also recalled the terrifying aura emanating from the ice palace after Chang Yuntao hid in Mist City.
Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his heart, he reaches out to press on the Shadow Dragon.
In the shadow state, he directly activates part of his Ice Attribute Gene.
Then he absorbs the Ice Attribute Energy from the Shadow Dragon.
As this energy is absorbed by Liang Yuan, Liang Yuan keenly senses something unusual about this energy.
"This Ice Attribute Energy is far more pure than ordinary Ice Attribute Energy, and it contains Spiritual Power!"
Liang Yuan is slightly surprised, for ordinary energy, once expelled, is gone.
But this energy remains inside the other, still possessing the spiritual energy of the original owner.
He involuntarily thinks of Yang Mei.
Yang Mei’s ability is akin to a combination of spirit and ice attributes.
Not only can she freeze objects, but she also causes mental harm.
Liang Yuan forcibly erased the Spiritual Power within this Ice Attribute Energy with his Spiritual Power.
Only then does he proceed to absorb this Ice Attribute Energy.
The black Shadow Dragon lets out a joyous hum, circling around Liang Yuan a few times to express its happiness.
Liang Yuan pats its head: "Go rest, I’ll go check on them."
Saying this, Liang Yuan looks towards Han Xiangman and the others not far away.
Among them, Wu Ying is the first to notice Liang Yuan.
As a Dark Attribute Superpower User, he is at ease here, able to move freely and clearly perceive the surrounding situation.
Upon seeing Liang Yuan, he is instantly overjoyed.
"Mr. Liang!"
His exclamation causes the others to immediately look up.
"Wu Ying, what did you say?"
"Mr. Liang is here?"
"Mr. Liang? Where?"
Han Xiangman, Zhang Peng, and the others instantly become excited, all inquiring eagerly.
Liang Yuan comes over and solemnly says, "Everyone, I’ll get you out first."
With that, he waves his hand, directly bringing everyone out of the Shadow World.
Seeing the light again and seeing Liang Yuan, everyone is overjoyed.
"Mr. Liang, I knew you would definitely come to save us!"
"Mr. Liang, I’m sorry, we failed to defend Yang Baoshan, even our brothers..." Wu Ying says with red eyes.
Han Xiangman also feels guilty: "Mr. Liang, I’m sorry to disappoint you."
Zhang Peng is even more bitter: "Mr. Liang, that woman is terrifying, we really couldn’t stop her."
Liang Yuan solemnly asks, "Woman? What woman? Wasn’t it Chang Yuntao?"
Zhang Peng shakes his head: "No, it’s not Chang Yuntao. Mist City is now controlled by a woman who calls herself the Ice Goddess."
"She not only controls Mist City but has also seized Beichen Island and Yang Baoshan."
"We fled all the way to the Dark Abyss Mouth, but she didn’t let us go, setting up a great array outside to freeze the entire Dark Abyss Mouth."
"If it weren’t for all the dark attribute energy inside the Dark Abyss Mouth, she probably would have already broken in."
Everyone quickly explains to Liang Yuan what’s been happening recently.
The course of events was somewhat unexpected for Liang Yuan.
The person doing these things was not Chang Yuntao, but a woman!
Liang Yuan becomes more serious: "Where did this woman come from?"
"We don’t know, we’re not sure where she came from either."
"The captured people from Mist City haven’t seen this woman either," Han Xiangman says.
"What about Chang Yuntao?" Liang Yuan asks.
"Since you left, we haven’t seen Chang Yuntao again."
"Is this woman Chang Yuntao’s helper?"
"No, from her tone, she doesn’t even regard Chang Yuntao."
"She now considers herself the new master of Mist City and claims to be the Ice Goddess, stating that only her Ice Kingdom can endure the flood apocalypse."
Listening to this, Liang Yuan’s expression becomes increasingly peculiar.
Chang Yuntao in Mist City harbors such a woman?
Wait, for such a powerful woman, she might not just be supported by Chang Yuntao.
But as the master of Mist City, how could Chang Yuntao not know about such a woman’s existence?
Liang Yuan becomes curious about this woman’s background and her relationship with Chang Yuntao.
Furthermore, why does the title Ice Goddess sound somewhat familiar?
A thought flashes through Liang Yuan’s mind, and he remembers that when Yang Mei awakened, she used to have dreams of people being frozen.
And at that time, Yang Mei seemed to have a second personality, claiming herself to be the Ice Goddess?
"Could there be a connection between the two?"
Liang Yuan feels a faint spark of insight but also thinks it’s unlikely.
Yang Mei has never been to Mist City, so how could she have met this so-called Ice Goddess?
Liang Yuan leads the group back to Fan Mountain Town.
Han Xiangman looked at the external thick ice seal, a trace of astonishment flashed across her face, and she said, "That woman, she actually sealed the entire Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth?"
Zhang Peng, incredulous, said, "How did she manage to do that? When we escaped to the Brain Lake, it wasn’t like this."
Wu Ying said, "Mr. Liang, what should we do?"
Liang Yuan waved his hand and said, "Don’t be nervous, this is an array. Break the outside talisman array, and it can be unsealed."
"Wait for me a moment."
Liang Yuan soared into the air; this time, he didn’t use the Ice Bear gene state but directly transformed into a massive flame sculpture.
Scarlet Flame Sculpture!
He recombined genes, activated the Scarlet Flame Sculpture form, and fiercely flapped his wings toward the void!
The wingspan reached forty meters, seemingly entirely condensed from flames.
As the wings swung, instantly, a terrifying flame shockwave exploded fiercely outward!
Its speed was as fast as lightning, booming explosion, suddenly crashing into the thick ice layer outside!
Boom... boom...
The sound of flames exploding continued, terrifying particle collisions burst out intense energy ripple waves.
Under intense high-temperature combustion, the outside ice barrier was instantly smashed to pieces!
A large amount of mist steamed upwards, and the ice layers rapidly melted.
Nearby ice-blue runes desperately flickered, trying to mend the shattered ice block barrier.
Yet the next moment, they were engulfed by flames, with ice-blue runes shattering loudly!
And as one rune shattered, the entire ice-sealed barrier collapsed and shattered.
This ice attribute rune array, which sealed the entire Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth, crumbled loudly!
Liang Yuan’s wings vibrated, soaring into the sky, looking around.
He saw ice-blue runes finally converging into a peculiar ice-blue bead.
Liang Yuan’s gaze focused, his body flashed, wings vibrating, swiftly shooting over, intending to seize this peculiar bead.
However, the bead seemed to sense something, buzzing, swiftly fleeing Liang Yuan’s capture.
It flew at an astonishing speed, heading toward Mist City!
Liang Yuan was stunned, somewhat amazed.
"It’s not dead, it’s alive!"
Only then did Liang Yuan realize this thing was alive!
And it seemed able to sense the surrounding situation.
Without a word, he fiercely flapped his wings; in Scarlet Flame Sculpture form, he dashed away like a flame lightning.
Almost instantly, he caught up with this blue bead.
Without waiting for it to change direction, Liang Yuan swung his wings, with a swash, surrounding flames formed a circle.
Then exploded loudly, terrifying high temperatures surged, forcing the bead to bump around, and swiftly dodged.
Before it could react, suddenly, a figure appeared amidst the flames.
Liang Yuan, transformed into a flame giant, firmly grasped the bead!
This bead was not small, its whole body exceeding ten meters in length!
Held by the flame giant state of Liang Yuan, under terrifying high-temperature combustion.
It instantly let out a strange wail.
"Zzz——"
Immediately after, ice-blue runes lit up its surface, releasing terrifying cold rapidly, countering Liang Yuan’s high-temperature flame scorching.
Liang Yuan coldly smiled, perceiving this thing as a living entity; he wasted no words, directly employing his Spiritual Power.
Bang!
A terrifying Spiritual Pulse fiercely struck the opponent’s spirit sea.
In an instant, the bead wailed miserably, then all defenses were smashed, flames suddenly burned onto it.
It struggled intensely, but the body was visibly ignited by the naked eye.
A smell of burning came.
Not long after, its form couldn’t maintain the spherical shape, directly straightening and unfurling, revealing a curled-up ice bug!
Liang Yuan’s mind stirred, directly manipulating Spiritual Power, transforming into threads, forcibly invading the opponent’s neural network!
But as Liang Yuan’s Spiritual Power just touched the inner spirit sea of this peculiar bug.
A terrifying wave of spiritual force suddenly counterattacked Liang Yuan!
This wave of spiritual force carried extremely dreadful coldness, seemingly able to freeze the soul!
Liang Yuan was startled; he hadn’t expected it had such a peculiar attack mode.
Fortunately, Liang Yuan simultaneously possessed the Spirit Turtle Illusion Snake Genetic Species talent.
The next moment, the spirit cage skill under the Spirit Turtle state was released instantly!
Buzz!
A turtle shell cage suddenly formed in the spirit sea of this bizarre bug!
Thump thump thump!
The opponent’s powerful spiritual force crashed against the spirit cage, producing intense muffled collision sounds.
Liang Yuan felt it, the intensity of this thing’s spiritual force was approximately equivalent to 10% of a Spirit Ability User’s gene recombination.
This had already surprised Liang Yuan.
Mutated creatures from gene recombination, until now, he had only seen the Celestial Abyss descending military’s Three-legged Golden Crow.
And the mermaid old woman encountered at the underwater ancient tomb back then!
Unexpectedly, now he encountered another one!
What’s crucial is this one seemed not to be an ordinary mutant beast.
But manipulated by someone, specially used against the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth mutant beast!
This discovery made Liang Yuan solemn.
"That so-called Ice Goddess can actually control such monsters?"
"How many of these strange bugs does she own?"
If the opponent holds a large number of such strange bugs, then wanting to confront them, one must be careful!
