Chapter 265 - 265 Ice

265 Ice-attribute Martial Form

The young man, on the other hand, did not move at all, looking completely unfazed.

“Not bad! You can actually take one of my attacks, but I’ll let you know what despair is next.”

The young man grinned hideously. Then, his figure flashed again, and he appeared in front of Aloy.

“Be careful!” Shen Fei could not help but let out an angry roar. He once again brandished his fists and punched toward the young man’s body.

Bang!

However, the young man’s speed was too fast, and Shen Fei was utterly unable to catch up.

Seeing that Aloy’s head was about to be crushed by the young man’s palm, Shen Fei hurriedly brandished a long sword he summoned and stabbed toward the young man’s waist.

The sword moved swiftly, and the sword tip was covered with a thick layer of frost.

The young man sneered, “This sword of yours is not bad, but it’s useless against me. You should just obediently die!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man raised his palm again and ruthlessly slammed it down on Shen Fei.

Shen Fei’s pupils shrank, and his heart started beating faster as he watched the palm close in on him.

At the critical moment, he suddenly felt the system’s pure and boundless energy in his body burst out with a terrifying fluctuation in an instant. Immediately after that, a terrifying cold air, under the guidance of that energy, quickly gathered inside Shen Fei from all directions. Then, as if in slow motion, Shen Fei saw that on the surface of that palm, pieces of ice crystals had condensed there.

The ice crystals reflected a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight.

“Ice-attribute Martial Form, Frozen Form Technique?”

At the sight of this, Shen Fei could not help but narrow his eyes. The fact that this man knew how to use an ice-attribute martial form was unexpected. Furthermore, it seemed that his power was greater than Aloy’s.

“This guy is interesting.” A playful smirk appeared on Shen Fei’s face. In his eyes, there was a spark of excitement.

He did not expect to encounter an ice-attribute warrior at this time. But it seemed that he would be able to experience some profound ice-attribute martial skills.

In the next moment, the young man inexplicably changed targets and now headed straight for Aloy. He suddenly appeared in front of her and moved to strike her forehead.

Aloy saw the palm coming and could not help but panic. Her body trembled involuntarily, and her eyes became fearful.

Bang!

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard as the young man’s right hand was blocked by a violent energy. Shen Fei saw that it was Aloy’s Ice Spirit that intercepted the attack.

The Ice Spirit’s body glowed with an icy blue light, and numerous frozen flowers appeared around it. The scene painted a beautiful scene like a fairy come to life.

As the Ice Spirit blocked the young man’s attack, the force of his attack also gradually decreased. Eventually, with a shake of the Ice Spirit’s body, the energy completely dissipated into the air.

As for the young man, he stared at the spirit beast in shock. He did not expect the Ice Spirit to be so powerful, let alone be adept at using the ice element. However, his eyes turned cold again as a sinister smile appeared on his face.

The young man waved his hand, and a green vine grew out from his sleeve. It quickly slithered toward Shen Fei and Aloy.

“Flame Owl, Blazing Charge!” Shen Fei shouted. After that, he clasped his hands together and charged at the green vine with his spirit beast.

The fire elements in his hand had also gathered toward the building fireball in front of him, and within moments, he was charging at the enemy like a comet.

Meanwhile, the Ice Spirit summoned rings of ice that encircled Aloy and Shen Fei.

Somehow, the ice reached the green vine first and immediately froze it. However, the vine did not seem to have suffered any damage, so it continued to attack like mad, aiming to destroy Shen Fei and the Ice Spirit.

Shen Fei’s lips curled into a cold smile. He had paused for a moment to leverage on the multiple affinities granted to him by the system, and circulated the ice elements in his body to fuse it with the fire element he had already accumulated into a fireball. When the two elements were combined, they formed a huge fireball.

Under Shen Fei’s control, this fireball went crashing into the green vine. In the next second, the vine was devoured by the fireball.

“How is this possible…?” The young man’s eyes widened, clearly shocked.

On the other hand, the Ice Spirit wagged its tail gently and wore a triumphant expression. It seemed that, though it did not seem to work, its ice ring earlier had allowed the Ice Spirit to embed some ice particles into the vine undetected. When the fireball struck, the added ice elements helped the Ice Spirit limit the vine’s capabilities better, until the plant was consumed by the fire. This kind of sneak attack had allowed the Ice Spirit to make great progress in its combat effectiveness.

Seeing its expression, Shen Fei could only give a helpless smile. He never thought that the Ice Spirit would actually have a strong side.

On the other side of the clearing, the Snow Leopard charged in and attacked the Flame Owl and Ice Spirit. Although the Flame Owl and Ice Spirit were strong, the Snow Leopard actually posed a difficult challenge for them.

Shen Fei frowned at this. If the Snow Leopard really killed his Flame Owl, he could take the opportunity to escape. But for the time being, the Snow Leopard was only delaying the Flame Owl and did not cause it much damage. Killing the Flame Owl was not something that could be done in a short time.

On top of that, even if the leopard managed to kill the Flame Owl, Shen Fei might not be a match for it if it decided to come after them. After all, this was the Snow Leopard’s home ground. Its attack range was relatively wide, and Shen Fei’s own defensive ability was far inferior to the Snow Leopard’s. Under such circumstances, the likelihood of them escaping was much too low.

“Dammit!” Shen Fei could not help but curse under his breath. His heart began to beat violently, and a trace of anxiety appeared in his eyes.

Right at that moment, the Snow Leopard seemed to have found an opening, and it suddenly sped up. The Flame Owl was entangled by the Snow Leopard’s skill and could not break away from the battle. The Ice Spirit was doing no better. Furthermore, their space was being limited to a certain extent. Even Shen Fei, with his innate powers, found it impossible to perfectly dodge the Snow Leopard’s attack as he was pulled into the fight.

Therefore, to rescue the two spirit beasts, Shen Fei had to deal with the Snow Leopard as soon as possible.

Shen Fei gritted his teeth as the magnanimity of the situation registered in his mind, and a resolute look flashed in his eyes.

He suddenly leaped up and stepped on the air. His entire person was like a sharp arrow as he pounced straight at the young man. When the young man saw Shen Fei’s actions, he could not help but be stunned for a moment. He did not expect Shen Fei to actually take the initiative to attack him instead of the Snow Leopard.

His pupils shrank, and his eyes were filled with a touch of solemness. “Hmph! You bunch of ants, how dare you offend me? Today, I will kill you all and sell your corpses for money, haha!”
