Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+ Whoos.h.!.+
To the north of Dragon City.
Thousands of fish jumped out of the sea.
They all had something sharp and silver on their heads, which glinted dangerously in the sunlight.
[Poisonous Dagger Fish]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-1]
[Rarity: Common]
[Description: Their blood contains a potent toxin. Anyone who is injured by the fish would die in misery as if they had been stabbed by a dagger covered with poison.]
A person stood above the sea ahead of the thousands of fish.
The sword in his hand was completely transparent apart from a few red dots on it. Seeing the incoming fish, he stood there without moving a muscle.
The poisonous fish that even sea creatures of Extraordinary Rank-5 and above would find intimidating were less than 100m from him.
Whoos.h.!.+
The transparent sword glowed.
With a twist of his wrist, a streak of white light charged at the Poisonous Dagger Fish.
Hum!
As soon as the white light made contact with the first fish, frost appeared on the tip of the “dagger” on the fish's head. It then quickly spread out to its entire body.
By the time the fish reached the man holding the sword, it was covered by ice.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Immediately after that, those dagger fish fell onto the ice.
The fish fell onto the ice because after the white light shot out, not only the dagger was frozen, but the sea of a 30m radius around the man also turned into ice.
“Impressive!”
Ji Ye looked at the 1.5m-long sword in his hand. Overall, the new sword had a heavy feeling to it.
He was pleased.
[Thousand-Year Ice Dragon Sword]
[Level: Transcendent Rank-1]
[Rarity: Superior (Rare)]
[Description: The sword was made by the City Master of Dragon City from Thousand-Year Dragon Blood Mystic Ice. It comes with the skills “Icebound” and “Eternal Cold Draught” and contains a few drops of True Dragon Blood!]
Compared with Gatling Bodhisattva and Hundred Dragon Soul Saber, this sword had much simpler ingredients.
Both the Thousand-Year Mystic Ice and the Dragon Blood were very exclusive.
Therefore, all Ji Ye did was use his talent to fuse a few Thousand-Year Mystic Ice containing the Dragon Blood together and shaped them into a sword.
Even with that, the sword was already given a Superior and Rare evaluation.
It was almost about the same level as the Retribution Fire Trident.
The main reason was its outstanding attribute.
For instance, if Ji Ye activated Icebound to its full strength, he could freeze the sea within a 5km radius.
Of course, he would have to be moving constantly and use up the energy of the sword.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, it was unlikely for a Transcendent Rank-1 weapon to freeze such a big area.
Besides, the level and the size of that target had to be within a reasonable range.
For instance…
Boom!
Suddenly, the frozen sea surface shuddered, as if something gigantic had smashed into it.
Immediately after that, an enormous dark shadow broke through the ice and jumped out of the sea.
It was a whale with a trident-shaped tail. It was over 15m, had a huge head and a mouth of the matching size.
[Three Tail Dragon Whale]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-8]
[Rarity: Quasi-Commander]
[Description: An irascible type of whale that had a great proportion Dragon Bloodline. The dagger fish was its favorite prey.]
Obviously, the dragon whale had been chasing after the Poisonous Dagger Fish.
Although it hadn't reached the Transcendent level yet, because of its great size, it wasn't frozen by the sword.
Pew!
However, as soon as it jumped out of the water and before it could do anything, a white light flashed.
Ji Ye threw out the Thousand-Year Ice Dragon Sword, which then charged at the whale like a streak of white light.
White smoke rose out of the blade after it pierced the whale's skin and quickly spread out toward the rest of its body.
That was the Transcendent weapon's second ability—Eternal Cold Draught.
The difference between the two skills was that this one wouldn't freeze the body liquid of the target.
Instead, it would greatly slow the target down.
And that effect didn't just work on the body. The senses and mental ability would be affected as well.
Because the cold draught was a Transcendent power.
That was why Ji Ye made it before they attacked the yakshas.
The most troublesome characteristic of the yakshas was their high speed.
It even enabled them to dodge bullets from a short distance away.
But they wouldn't be able to evade the cold draught that covered such a big area. Once the cold draught took its effect, they couldn't expel it and would become even slower than humans.
“Roar!”
The dragon whale seemed to sense something.
It collapsed onto the ice and didn't have any strength left to struggle. It was even trembling a little.
Because apart from the two skills, the sword also contained a few drops of True Dragon Blood that had been sealed in ice, which was giving off a strong True Dragon Aura.
To a Dragon Blood creature like this whale, that would feel like an utter suppression, both physically and mentally.
But Ji Ye didn't kill the dragon whale.
He even walked up to it, pulled the sword out, and stuck it into the ice.
In a split second, the area covered by ice shrank and disappeared.
That was the third ability of the Thousand-Year Ice Dragon Sword. It could absorb cold draught.
Not only could it freeze things, but it could also reverse the process.
After unfreezing the sea, Ji Ye waved his sword again, and the seawater moved with it, carrying a large number of Poisonous Dagger Fish, which then fell onto the Mirage Dragon Wars.h.i.+p not far away.
Since the sword contained Dragon Blood, it was only natural that it could control the seawater like the Black Serpent Sword did.
The poison in the Poisonous Dagger Fish was in a semi-liquid state, and it would work wonderfully on arrows and bullets after some refinement.
The only problem was that it could only be extracted when the fish was alive.
But that shouldn't be a problem.
Because after the fish fell into the special device on the Mirage Dragon Wars.h.i.+p, the frozen Poisonous Dagger Fish became active again. They swam around in the device, trying to escape.
That was another characteristic of the Thousand-Year Ice Dragon Sword.
Because the freezing happened so fast that after the sword drew back the cold energy, the frozen target could regain its vitality, just like Cryonics on Earth.
Splas.h.!.+
While Ji Ye put away the fish, something began to change in the dragon whale. Scales that looked like those of a dragon began to appear on its body, and it was quickly advancing toward Extraordinary Rank-9.
“So, it has a positive effect on Dragon Blood creatures.”
Ji Ye wasn't worried about this discovery.
Because this change was one of the sword's abilities as well.
Since the sword contained a few drops of True Dragon Blood, when necessary, Ji Ye could inject the blood into his target. The target would burst open, just like what he did when he upgraded the Legendary True Blood.
That was because the Dragon Blood was an overpowering substance and was incompatible with most living creatures.
However, if the target was a Dragon Blood creature, it might be able to withstand one drop of blood (not the Legendary True Blood).”
It might even evolve in the process.
That was to say, the Thousand-Year Ice Dragon Sword couldn't be used on the Transcendent Rank-3 Flood Dragon that was approaching Dragon City.
