Online Game: Evil Dragon Against The Heaven - 204
Yao Yao not only resurrected but also jumped directly from level three to level five, with all its attributes more than doubling. Despite being only level 12, its magic points had already reached an astonishing 2650. With its automatic resurrection skill and three newly unlocked Mystic Spirit Barriers, the true power of the Mystic Spirit Snow Fox was on full display, showcasing its immense strength.
Wall of Vengeance: An exceptionally powerful repelling skill that pushes enemies back three meters per second and deals immense damage. Once this barrier is activated, unless an enemy’s movement speed is extraordinarily high, it’s nearly impossible for them to get close to Yao Yao.
Wall of Heaven’s Protection: A 20-second invincibility skill with only a three-minute cooldown. This skill is several times more potent than Ye Tian Xie’s Evil Dragon’s Soul and seems like an otherworldly ability that could only appear on a creature like Yao Yao.
Wall of Heaven’s Blessing: A large-scale protection and blessing skill that not only shields nearby allies but also significantly enhances Yao Yao’s already extraordinary healing ability.
Although it wasn’t granted strong offensive abilities, Yao Yao was gifted even more formidable defensive skills, making up for any lack in attack power. Even though it had recovered only a small fraction of its original strength, Yao Yao was already demonstrating its awe-inspiring capabilities to Ye Tian Xie.
The Ice Wolves that had been repelled quickly lunged forward again. Yao Yao, standing on the ground, moved without hesitation, its pure white body suddenly flashing with a circle of bright crimson light.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
The crimson Wall of Vengeance enveloped not only Yao Yao but also Ye Tian Xie and Su Fei Fei, covering a five-meter radius. The moment the barrier was activated, a scarlet light burst forth, and three Ice Wolves that stepped within five meters were forcefully thrown back.
-612, -612, -612…
As the wolves were repelled, each lost more than one-third of their total health.
The magic was non-elemental, a rare and terrifying type. Non-elemental magic meant there was no inherent resistance to it, making it impossible to defend against. The difficulty of casting such magic was immense. Wind magic relied on wind elements, fire magic on fire elements…but non-elemental magic used 【nothingness】 as its medium. In the billion-year history of the Lost Continent, there were few recorded instances of non-elemental magic users. Wall of Vengeance was Yao Yao’s only skill with offensive capabilities, but it was overwhelmingly powerful. Ye Tian Xie’s Dragon Fissure Slash dealt double damage to a single target, whereas Wall of Vengeance inflicted triple magic damage to all nearby enemies.
Although Yao Yao’s appearance hadn’t changed after its evolution, remaining the same adorable and seemingly harmless little fox, its power had grown immensely. As soon as the Wall of Vengeance was deployed, Yao Yao cast its Mystic Spirit Healing.
+1020, +1020, +1020…
Four-digit healing numbers floated above Ye Tian Xie, Su Fei Fei and Zuo Po Jun, instantly restoring the life drained by the cold to full.
Ye Tian Xie stared at Yao Yao for a moment in astonishment before snapping back to reality. He shouted to the equally stunned Zuo Po Jun, who was about to be overtaken by five Ice Wolves, “Po Jun, get over here!!”
“Huh… oh!” Zuo Po Jun hesitated for a moment before turning his horse toward Ye Tian Xie, charging into the Wall of Vengeance.
The barrier wasn’t stationary but moved with Yao Yao, maintaining its protective radius of five meters. As Zuo Pojun entered the barrier, the five Ice Wolves chasing him followed—only to be violently repelled by the flashing red wall.
-612, -612, -612, -612, -612…
The three companions gathered at the barrier’s center, standing by Yao Yao’s side. From here, they watched as the ten Ice Wolves around them lunged forward… If the wolves were intelligent, they would have waited for the barrier to dissipate after being struck once. But clearly, if wolves had such intelligence, they wouldn’t be wolves.
Rather than retreat, the wolves’ ferocity was heightened by the repulsion. After a brief pause, they charged forward again, only to be thrown back once more.
-612, -612, -612…
The Ice Wolves each had 1600 HP. After being repelled three times by the Wall of Vengeance, they collapsed lifelessly. Even their corpses were thrown outside the barrier. The deaths of the lead wolves didn’t deter those behind; they continued to leap forward, only to meet the same fate, their lives emptied by the barrier.
The Wall of Vengeance could last up to 20 seconds, but it hadn’t even been active for ten before all ten Ice Wolves lay dead outside the barrier.
Staring at the heap of wolf corpses around the glowing red barrier, Zuo Po Jun and Su Fei Fei were beyond shocked. In fact, 『shocked』 no longer adequately described the tumult of emotions they felt. They could only look at the small, unassuming snow fox at Ye Tian Xie’s feet as if it were some kind of monster.
“Well done, Yao Yao.” Ye Tian Xie gently picked up Yao Yao, cradling it in his arms as he smiled. Overwhelmed with excitement and gratitude, the bone-chilling cold suddenly seemed far less daunting.
“Second Brother… Is this really just an ordinary healing-type little fox?”
A level 12 pet, in such a brutal environment, effortlessly protecting three people and eliminating ten level-25 monsters in such a short time—it was unbelievable.
Ye Tian Xie’s talent, combined with his current attributes, was already extraordinary, almost 『broken』in game terms. And as for his little pet? It was clearly not normal either—equally 『broken』 and absurdly powerful.
“Don’t ask now. We need to leave this place immediately… Staying too long will eventually take its toll,” Ye Tian Xie said, grabbing Su Fei Fei’s hand and adjusting the Snow Velvet Coat on her. Although the coat helped shield her from the cold, Su Fei Fei wasn’t like him or Zuo Po Jun—she was a pampered young lady who had rarely faced hardships. Her willpower and tolerance couldn’t compare to theirs, making it difficult for her to endure much longer in this environment.
Would there be stronger enemies ahead?
The answer was… no.
The extreme cold of the Ice Bone Desolation was already a cruel and arduous trial. Few could endure it like Ye Tian Xie. Most would be forced to retreat midway. Su Fei Fei’s perseverance in reaching this point was a testament to her determination, aided significantly by the Snow Velvet Coat.
The Ice Wolves encountered before the Ice Bone Desolation were meant to assist players in traversing this trial. By collecting wolf pelts from these creatures, players could craft protective clothing to improve their chances of survival.
In such an environment, even regular level-25 monsters became terrifyingly difficult to handle. Not to mention, for players at the current stage of the game, even a full party of level-25 players would struggle against six wolves—let alone eleven.
Those eleven Ice Wolves turned out to be the final challenge. Defeating them marked the completion of the Ice Bone Desolation trial, but it was only half of the mission.
Just half.
Half a minute later, the exit of the Ice Bone Desolation finally came into view. The three companions felt both excitement and unease—unease about what lay ahead. Would the depths of the Ice Abyss Wolf Den be even colder? Generally, the deeper one ventured, the more terrifying it became.
The three White Dragon Horses charged out of the Ice Bone Desolation simultaneously. The moment they left, their fears proved unfounded.
This area was no longer ice but entirely covered in snow. Judging by the feel beneath their feet, ice likely lay beneath the snow. The environment here resembled the snowy field outside the Ice Abyss Wolf Den. For those perceptive enough, even the temperature felt identical.
Although still cold, compared to the Ice Bone Desolation, the area felt as warm as a sunny day. Su Fei Fei and Zuo Po Jun’s pale faces began to regain some color as they turned their gaze to Ye Tian Xie. Ahead of them lay nothing but an endless expanse of snow—no roads, only a dead end.
However, Ye Tian Xie’s gaze remained fixed ahead. After a moment, he spoke slowly, “Don’t move forward… Look ahead!”
At Ye Tian Xie’s warning, Su Fei Fei and Zuo Po Jun looked in the direction he indicated. It was then that they noticed, just ten meters ahead, a massive… wolf lying in wait.
It was a white wolf, its fur as pure as snow, without a single blemish. It seemed as though it was cloaked in snow itself, blending perfectly with the surroundings. Without careful observation, it was impossible to discern its silhouette.
The wolf was enormous—spanning at least five meters in length as it lay there motionless. Its eyes were tightly shut, and its body was completely still, as though it were dead.
“A white wolf… could it be the Ice Snow Wolf mentioned in the mission prompt?” Zuo Po Jun whispered cautiously, as if afraid to wake the terrifying celestial beast from its slumber. This celestial beast was nothing like the level-15 small spirit beast they encountered in the Demon Shadow Forest. It was entirely beyond what any player could withstand.
Deceased Ice Snow Wolf
Attributes: None.
The information from Ye Tian Xie’s Evil Dragon’s Eye startled him—this was undoubtedly the Ice Snow Wolf. But… what did 『deceased』 mean? Was this massive wolf merely the corpse of the Ice Snow Wolf mentioned in the mission?
His brow furrowed as he silently observed the Ice Snow Wolf for a while. His heightened perception confirmed there was no sign of life emanating from the wolf’s body.
What was going on?
“Don’t move… Let me take a closer look,” Ye Tian Xie said, raising his spiritual awareness to its peak as he cautiously approached the still, silent Ice Snow Wolf step by step.
Ten meters… nine meters… six meters… five meters…
As Ye Tian Xie stepped within five meters of the Ice Snow Wolf, a terrifying sense of danger suddenly surged from above. Without time to look up, he immediately executed a Dragon Shadow Slash, darting backward in an instant, returning to his original position.
Crack!!
A long ice spike shot down from above, piercing into the snowy ground with tremendous force. The spike shattered into countless shards of ice, scattering in all directions.
