Chapter 950: Ice Phoenix's Frozen Calamity

"The monarch of the Ice Phoenix Tribe? It might as well be," Aria thought.

"The Ice Phoenix Tribe is unlike the Blue Luan Tribe. Although they are quite similar, their strengths differ greatly. At the very least, it seems like the Ice Phoenix Tribe has many Paragons."

Although the mountain range sticking out of the sea was quite far away, several ice phoenixes flew closer at a closer distance, and the aura emanating from them wasn't weak.

There was definitely a Paragon among them.

"But even if the Ice Phoenix Tribe has many Paragon-level Ice Phoenixes in their tribe, it wouldn't be easy to find another Half-step Divine Beast among them," Aria continued.

"Yeah. It is already a rare sight to even spot a Half-step Divine Beast," is what Leon said.

However, the Black Dragon Clan he left behind in the Starfall Dominion had four Divine Beast-level Earth Dragons.

Nevertheless, their attainments were all thanks to Leon's a.s.sistance.

Furthermore, the situation in the Desolate Beast Continent was different from the Dark Abyss Continent.

The Desolate Beast Continent didn't have a powerful place of inheritance like the Radiant Heaven Realms.h.i.+p where the Eternal Night Demon Empress slumbers.

Or at the very least, Leon hadn't heard or discovered, which isn't very surprising. He had barely explored a fraction of the continent.

"Nevertheless, it was a good thing that we came to check this place out. Otherwise, we wouldn't have known about this Ice Phoenix Tribe nesting in the north," Elizabeth said seriously.

"The Ice Phoenix Tribe isn't close, but it isn't exactly that far either. Paragon-level Ice Phoenixes can cross this distance in no time. If we had set up a port city without knowledge of the Ice Phoenix Tribe, people would have suffered raids from the ice phoenixes."

"In this regard, we have to thank Darlene for taking this far offsh.o.r.e. Otherwise, we wouldn't have come close enough to notice the Ice Phoenix Tribe," Elizabeth added.

Darlene immediately felt embarra.s.sed.

Just as Elizabeth had said, they weren't exactly at the sand beach. No, they were at least four dozen miles away from it.

However, they had still had solid ground to stand on despite being sent to the sea. That is because the entire northern beach and fifty miles of seawater surface further north of it had all been frozen solid.

At that moment, they were standing at the very edge where the frozen sea surface meets with the non-frozen seawater.

Even so, the seawater was still frighteningly cold, nonetheless.

When Leon swept beneath the ice surface with his divine sense, he discovered it wasn't just the surface that was frozen.

The frozen seawater extended as deep as his divine sense could reach. As such, it was likely that the ice extended to the seafloor.

"I didn't expect the north to be such a vast land of ice," Leon mentioned.

"If we can get the Half-step Divine Beast-level Ice Phoenix's cooperation, the Ice Phoenix Tribe won't be a threat to the empire. Instead, they'll be a valuable a.s.set. However, they might not be the only beast tribe in the north."

"We should head back and check the rest of this northern ice land," Leon suggested.

After getting everyone's agreement, the group left the frozen sea. They made their way back to land while searching for points of interest along the way.

'You've gathered enough celestial energy, child. Use your Celestial Frost Arts now,' the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress said to Lynne.

"Yes, Master," Lynne complied.

The pure white brilliance gradually faded, revealing Lynne's body with rainbow-glowing celestial veins on the surface of her skin.

However, shortly after, the rainbow-colored energy gathered towards a single point on Lynne's palm, forming a concentrated orb of celestial energy.

"Celestial Frost Arts Ice Phoenix's Frozen Calamity!" Lynne shot the celestial energy orb out of her hand.

The moment it left her palm, the rainbow-colored celestial energy orb rapidly transformed into a blue phoenix that s...o...b..lled in size.

Within moments, the blue phoenix reached the same size as the Half-step Divine Beast-level Ice Phoenix. Then, it flapped its wings and disappeared into the white clouds right below.

In that instance, the billowing white clouds above Extreme Misty Forest darkened. Then, it churned like a cyclone, pulling in the nearby clouds and increasing its size in the process.

The weather drastically changed as the air cooled and the temperature dropped terrifyingly loweven lower than the heart of the ice mountain cave.

Before long, countless white snowflakes fell from the sky and rained over the southern half of Extreme Misty Forest.

Although the white snowflakes seemed ordinary at a glance, they contained terrifying icy powers within them.

The moment the white snowflakes landed on the black trees of the forest, numerous ice crystal pillars grew out from them.

However, it wasn't just the trees affected by the white snowflakes. Even the cold yin mist itself caused the icy powers within the snowflakes to erupt chaotically upon contact.

As thousands upon thousands, millions upon millions of white snowflakes descended, crystal ice pillars erupted throughout Extreme Misty Forest. They landed on the ground, trees, mists, and even the growing crystal ice pillars themselves.

New crystal ice pillars grew out from older ones, creating a chain reaction throughout the misty forest.

Within moments, crystal ice pillars filled Extreme Misty Forest.

However, the onslaught of ice didn't end there. As the whirlpool of dark clouds continued raining snowflakes on the forest, numerous ice pillars clashed against each other and shattered.

Yiii!

The cries of countless vengeful spirits echoed throughout Extremely Misty Forestonly to be drowned by the noise of clas.h.i.+ng crystal ice pillars.

Everywhere was a battlefield.

The vengeful spirits had no safe to hide nor anywhere to run.

Wherever they fled, rapidly expanding crystal ice pillars would obstruct their pa.s.sage. Eventually, they have nowhere to run.

Eventually, the crystal ice pillars impaled vengeful spirits and transformed their spiritual bodies into ice, effectively slaying them.

Lynne didn't expect the Celestial Arts to cause such devastation on a regional scale.

Nevertheless, she quickly used her Celestial Frost Arts again to protect a single spot in Extreme Misty Forest from the ongoing disaster befalling it.
