Chapter 286: Ice-Luring Spirit Beast, Frost Dragon

"Mother, while the Spirit Beasts here are decent, their age is still not high enough. Although the conventional limit for a Soul Emperor is twenty thousand years, with my current physique, even if it isn't a Spirit Ring obtained through Sacrifice, I can handle seven or eighty thousand years," Nan Feihuang said.

Whale Glue, External Spirit Bone, Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, Ice and Fire Body Refining Immortal Herb, Dunjia Heavenly Book, and his innate Ghost God Body gave Nan Feihuang great confidence.

In fact, seven or eighty thousand years was a conservative estimate; even for a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring obtained by beating it out, he felt he might not necessarily be unable to withstand it.

"Don't worry, Huang'er, Mother understands this, of course. I will never be so careless with your Spirit Ring." Lan Xue walked to the side of the Ice Lake and sat cross-legged.

Her entire body suddenly blossomed with a deep blue radiance, reflecting her as a magnificent sight.

On the nearby ice surface, a layer of even harder and clearer extreme ice attached itself, radiating an aura of supreme purity in all directions.

"This aura seems familiar," Nan Feihuang thought to himself. "Right, it's the Extreme Cold Ice Spring."

He quickly figured it out: the Extreme Cold Ice Spring originated from the Ice Dragon King, so the aura Lan Xue was simulating was very similar to the power of the Ice Dragon King.

She had practiced in the Extreme Cold Yin Spring for nearly a year, and since she already possessed the Ice Dragon King's cold ice power within her, it was not difficult for her to imitate it.

The Ice Dragon King could be called the strongest ice-attribute beast in the Douluo Shijie; its Extreme Ice was not only supreme but also of the utmost purity.

Such pure cold ice power would certainly be able to attract powerful ice-attribute Spirit Beasts.

This had the same effect as Tang San's method of using the fragrance of the Fragrant Silk Luo Immortal Product to lure Spirit Beasts, but it appeared even more shrewd.

Because what was attracted this way would only be ice-attribute Spirit Beasts, and nothing else inexplicable would arrive.

Before long, the vicinity was surrounded by ice-attribute Spirit Beasts. This was only because Lan Xue had high-level expertise and was bold; otherwise, being surrounded by a large pile of monsters, one would probably already be considering where to bury oneself.

Lan Xue ignored these Spirit Beasts. In fact, there were already several very good ones here, but she still felt it hadn't reached the best level.

Suddenly, the large number of ice-attribute Spirit Beasts in the surroundings scattered for no apparent reason, as if they were afraid of something.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

A heavy sound arrived, and Nan Feihuang only felt the earth shaking.

But this was not the sound of footsteps, and the shaking was not the vibration of heavy objects stepping on the ground; instead, it was like the vibration of the air, causing the surroundings to tremble.

"This is... caused by the wings of a giant creature flapping against the air, right?" Nan Feihuang guessed. He looked up at the sky; for this phenomenon to occur, there was a high probability that the thing was flying in the sky.

Lan Xue opened her eyes. "It's here. It seems that what has appeared this time is definitely a good fellow!"

Both of their gazes locked onto that thing in the sky.

It was a giant dragon, massive and majestic in size, with a body length reaching over fifteen meters, its posture sturdy and solemn. Its skin presented a deep, icy blue color, and its surface was covered with a thick layer of frost, as if it had been carved from ten-thousand-year cold ice, emitting a cold luster. The most prominent feature was the dragon scales; each scale was like a carefully polished ice crystal, crystal clear, shimmering with a dazzling light under the sunlight.

"This appearance, why does it look so much like a Frost Dragon?" Nan Feihuang said in surprise.

"Huang'er, what are you saying? This is a Frost Dragon, a very rare existence among ice-attribute Spirit Beasts. I originally thought that such Spirit Beasts only existed in the Extreme North; I didn't expect there to be one in this Star Dou Great Forest," Lan Xue said excitedly. "Looking at the age of this Frost Dragon, I'm afraid it has already exceeded seventy thousand years, perhaps even approaching eighty thousand. For such a powerful Spirit Beast, the probability of it dropping a soul bone is also extremely high. We absolutely cannot let it go."

"So it really is called a Frost Dragon," Nan Feihuang muttered to himself. The Frost Dragon in Lan Xue's mouth was not at all the same thing as the one he was talking about.

As a veteran gaming nerd, he had thought that the Frost Dragon from the Undead race in Warcraft had also transmigrated here.

However, the two were indeed somewhat different; the Frost Dragon in Warcraft had a grayish-white skeleton visible from the outside, clearly a product of the Undead race.

But this one had skin as hard as iron, a majestic and imposing aura, and one could clearly feel its thick vitality.

It must have been attracted by the aura of the Ice Dragon King, and at this moment, its gaze was firmly locked onto Lan Xue below.

It was not afraid of the power of Lan Xue, who had reached the level of a Super Douluo.

The Dragon Clan was already at the ceiling of the Spirit Beast system in Douluo Continent. Although this Frost Dragon's age was only seventy to eighty thousand years, just like the Titan Giant Ape, a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast of an average race, such as a Soft Bone Rabbit, would be beaten up by it.

Moreover, for a Spirit Beast like this that was uniquely endowed by nature, it didn't need a hundred thousand years; as long as it had several tens of thousands of years, it would possess quite significant intelligence.

It knew that the woman below possessed the power of the King of their Ice Dragon Clan within her; as long as it devoured her, it would certainly be able to reach the Ten-Thousand-Year Level in one go.

Even its ice might possibly obtain supreme power and transform into Extreme Ice.

Thinking of this, the Frost Dragon's greedy gaze was undisguised, and its body flapped its wings as it dove toward the ground.

"Heavenly Queen Halberd Technique—Blue Sea Surging Heaven!"

Lan Xue flew into the sky, using the Mysterious Ice Halberd to meet the Frost Dragon's dive. Her halberd technique was like a surging flood, unstoppable, yet as gentle and graceful as water, containing hidden force.

After a clash, Lan Xue landed rapidly, retreated ten meters, and stabilized her figure with one foot on the ground.

The Frost Dragon was also repelled; in this strike, both sides could be said to have fought to a draw.

As expected of the Dragon Clan; even though it was only a seventy-thousand-year Spirit Beast, its physical strength was not inferior to that of a Super Douluo.

Moreover, its ice attribute seemed to be infinitely close to the level of Extreme Ice; even Lan Xue's Extreme Ice could not completely suppress it the way it suppressed Tang Hao and Sword Douluo.

However, Lan Xue still had the upper hand just now, because her halberd technique was not only powerful in frontal force, but its hidden force was also impossible to guard against.

It seemed that her fighting style today was to hope to continuously strike hidden force into the Frost Dragon's body and then explode it all at once, in order to break its indestructible physical defense.

Nan Feihuang indicated that this was a very correct tactical choice.

The Frost Dragon opened its mouth, and massive cold air condensed within it. This strike was of no small power; it was a racial skill of the Frost Dragon clan, Frozen Breath.

"Mother, save your soul power, don't take this move head-on, I'll help you!" Nan Feihuang shouted.

Although he knew that even in a head-on collision, Lan Xue would definitely be able to block this move, using a major ultimate move to clash with this Frost Dragon would also consume quite a bit.

And what was the need for that?

Nan Feihuang had a more concise and effective plan.
