Chapter 468: Corey the Ice Celestial (2/2)
Perhaps because their energy was confined, each and every one of the imprisoned dark dragons shivered in the cold. The dark skinned girl covered with cuts and bruises, possibly due to the freezing cold, or maybe it was the ice crumbs that fell on her. Her skin seemed to have paled a significant few shades.
After Han Shuo spoke, the ground on which the cage rested suddenly crumbled into a dark cavern. As the imprisoned dark dragons screamed out in fear, the entire cage tumbled into the dark hole.
At the same time, right under Gilbert’s feet, an underground tunnel opened up. Gilbert came to his senses in an instant, and lept into the tunnel.
After both the cage and dark dragon Gilbert descended, the two holes that appeared so bizarrely, in the attentive watch of the Shrine of Ice experts, again miraculously closed up. Before they realized what was happening, the two holes had completely disappeared. The ground restored to its former smooth surface.
“Lord, Lord Corey! The Jadefrost Cage disappeared!” Suddenly, one of the magi that had been chanting, cried out in shock.
Corey, who was brandishing his sword to resist the tricky attacks of the diabolic fireballs, found time to take a glance behind him. His face turned an ugly expression. Corey the Ice Celestial had been on the defense against those diabolic fireballs all along when, all of a sudden, a dreadfully frigid gust of air gushed out from his body.
All of a sudden, cold air gathered rapidly with Corey at the center, and the space around him started to freeze, producing an enormous blick of solid ice in midair.
The two constantly whirling diabolic fireballs manipulated by Han Shuo were frozen into the huge chunk of ice as well. Before Han Shuo could react, a dozen or so cold streams of air attached themselves to the solid ice and began to rapidly circle within the ice like silvery snakes, which then converged towards the fireballs trapped in the ice.
Dense white smoke immediately emanated from where the two fireballs were confined. Han Shuo could feel the demonic yuan energy contained within the two diabolic fireball depleting little by little under the besiege of the streams of cold air.
At the center of the huge chunk of ice sat Corey. As the caster, Corey wasn’t affected by the cold ice. With his chilly eyes on Han Shuo, he suddenly flew towards him at high-speed. The enormous chunk of ice that completely froze the space around him, as though it was weightless, flew along with Corey and towards Han Shuo.
Midway, thick white smoke stopped emanating from the surface of the solid ice. The dozen or so cold streams of air finally wore down the last bit of demonic yuan energy in the two frozen diabolic fireballs, and there was no longer a trace of their presences.
At Han Shuo’s command, the higher ranking undead creatures that suffered no effect under the previous wave of ice magic attack, circumvented Corey and charged at the five top experts from the Shrine of Ice. The five elite zombies too rapidly scattered around, preparing to release the Penta-elemental Undead Formation.
Seeing Corey fly towards him in that big block of ice, Han Shuo’s two hands began to rapidly whirl about, all kinds of uncanny demonic magic suddenly flew out with whooshing sounds. When the streams of unstoppable demonic light met with the solid ice, they produced beautiful clanking sounds.
However, this enormous chunk of solid ice that constantly absorbed the frosty air from the area seemed to be made of the toughest substance. When Han Shuo’s unique demonic attacks bombarded the boulder of ice, the deepest dent they made was barely a meter deep, absolutely incapable of penetrating through the solid ice and touch a single hair on Corey’s head.
Ice Celestial is indeed a well justified nickname! Han Shuo praised in his heart. He had been, on the one hand, busy releasing all sorts of dazzling attacks on the ice, and on the other, rapidly dodging, pressingly turning over in his mind for ways to break the ice.
As the Demonslayer Edge had yet to completely fuse with the Crystal of Destruction, and was unable to find a way to break the ice at the time, Han Shuo had no choice but to evade at high-speed. Fortunately, when it came to speed, Han Shuo always had the upper hand. Chasing after Han Shuo in a colossal chunk of ice, although fast moving, Corey wasn’t nearly as fast as Han Shuo and couldn’t get anywhere near him.
One couldn’t break through the ice, one couldn’t catch up to the other, the two were locked in a stalemate.
“Father, let me do it!”
“Father, let me do it!”
It was at this moment that Han Shuo received messages from the fire elite zombie and metal elite zombie. The two were overflowing with self-confidence, and seemingly sent the telepathic messages to Han Shuo simultaneously. The two then began to charge at Corey.
Metal elite zombie and fire elite zombie. One wielded the invincible treasure of metal attribute – the golden cudgel, another wielded the destructive incendiary treasure of fire attribute – the Fire Lotus. Han Shuo suddenly arrived at his senses. His mood loosened up and he started to plot on how to relentlessly hit Corey when he was down!
