The white mist in the air spread even faster. Ye Tian saw clearly that Ye Lin's and the Snake King's attacks had suddenly beco ineffective. The mist was like a flash freeze, and everything around them instantly turned into Profound Ice.
This terrifying scene scared Ye Tian badly. 'This doesn't seem like an ability a Tier Five Demon Beast should have,' he thought. 'Could this strange white fish be a Tier Six Demon Beast?'
At this thought, Ye Tian couldn't help but shudder. The feeling was distinct, even though he was currently frozen solid in Profound Ice.
The Eight-winged Golden Scale Python and the Snake King were both frozen solid by the sudden blast of frigid air. After all, these two were incredibly powerful, yet they had been trapped by a single strike from the Beiming Li Fish. It was truly terrifying.
The Beiming Li Fish glanced at the frozen Snake King and Ye Lin, then unexpectedly spoke in a human voice, "You overestimate yourselves. You think you're worthy of fighting ?
"After I absorb the Profound Ice Qi from the Profound Ice Pearl, I'll co and deal with you. Your Magic Crystals will be quite helpful for increasing my power."
Ye Tian grew more alard as he listened. 'It wants to absorb the Profound Ice Pearl's energy and kill Ye Lin and the Snake King! I can't tolerate this. I have to get them out of there, and fast.'
The more critical the situation, the less one can afford to panic. He had to remain calm—exceptionally calm. This was a true test of his ntal fortitude.
Ye Tian forced himself to ignore his current predicant. With a thought, he began to communicate with the Profound Ice Elent Particles that had frozen him.
'I have to get out of this Profound Ice Layer myself before I can save the Snake King and Ye Lin.' Ye Tian focused all his effort on communicating with the Profound Ice Particles. Sweat beaded on his forehead and began to drip rapidly down his cheeks.
The sweat didn't freeze, despite the cold from the Profound Ice Particles. Perhaps because Ye Tian had a good command of the Water Elent, he had now successfully managed to communicate with them.
Then, following his will, he made the Profound Ice encasing him slowly recede. After a short while, the Profound Ice on his body vanished. The river's surface was still covered in Profound Ice, which actually made it easier to walk on.
Without any hesitation, Ye Tian's figure flashed, and he appeared directly in front of the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python and the Snake King. He forcefully swung his Black Glaze Sword twice, striking the ice that encased each of them.
After being frozen, the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python and the Snake King had been unable to break the Profound Ice. It wasn't that they weren't strong enough; rather, being completely encased left them no room to exert their power.
It was like having imnse power but being unable to use it. The feeling of helplessness was incredibly frustrating, making the Snake King and Ye Lin feel like they were going to go mad.
However, Ye Tian's attack now resolved their predicant. His powerful Sword Qi struck the Profound Ice, instantly creating cracks.
The two trapped inside now had so room to move. With just that little bit of leeway, Ye Lin and the Snake King both rapidly circulated the Spiritual Power within their bodies.
Purple lightning suddenly crackled around his body and struck the Profound Ice from within. The ice imdiately shattered, sending shards flying in all directions. Ye Lin had successfully broken free from the Profound Ice Layer.
Not to be outdone, the Snake King also surged with a powerful force, instantly blasting the Profound Ice away. Both of them shot Ye Tian a grateful look.
"Young Master, this Beiming Li Fish is truly sothing else. We misjudged it. This creature must be an Ice-Attribute Demon Beast on the verge of breaking through to Tier Six. Perhaps it's devouring this Profound Ice Pearl precisely to make that breakthrough.
"You have to understand, the difference between Tier Six and Tier Five is enormous. Even ten Tier Five Demon Beasts attacking a Tier Six one with all their might wouldn't be guaranteed to kill it.
"But a Tier Six Demon Beast could easily kill ten Tier Five Demon Beasts. This Beiming Li Fish is so powerful... for your safety, Young Master, I think we should leave this place as soon as possible!" the Snake King said gravely.
"That's right. This thing is too powerful. We're no match for it at all. Our senses can be completely frozen by it, which puts us at a huge disadvantage. Big Brother, I think we really should get out of here quickly.
"Forget about the Profound Ice Pearl. Our lives are more important. We can't be reckless," said the Eight-winged Golden Scale Python.
Ye Tian thought they had a point. 'If even two powerhouses like them want to retreat, I have no reason to stay. Of course, I *could* kill it... but the price would be far too high.'
"Alright, let's go. I also didn't expect to find a creature this terrifying here," Ye Tian said.
"Leave? Don't you think too highly of yourselves? None of you are leaving today. And you, human—you especially must die!" At that mont, the Beiming Li Fish suddenly appeared before Ye Tian and his two companions.
What surprised Ye Tian even more was that the Beiming Li Fish had now transford into a humanoid shape. The transformation was incomplete, though; its head still had fish-like features, naly its eyes and mouth.
It also had many fish scales on its face and hands, giving it a rather strange appearance. It had the form of a middle-aged man and was currently glaring at the three of them with a face full of rage.
"Young Master, you go first! We'll hold it off. It might be powerful, but it won't be easy for it to kill us in an instant," the Snake King said as the Snake Bone Sword appeared in his hand.
"You think you can stop ? Aren't you overestimating yourself? I know of you, Snake King. In this High-Level Demon Beast Region, you're considered a powerhouse. But today, you t , which seals your fate," said the Beiming Li Fish.
The Beiming Li Fish was powerful, but its words filled all three of them with rage. 'If I weren't worried about destroying the entire High-Level Demon Beast Region,' Ye Tian thought, 'I'd use the Rune Elder Qing gave . It would be child's play to kill this arrogant beast!'
"It's not clear who will be the victor yet! Since you think you're so powerful, show us what you've got! I'd like to see just how arrogant you really are!" the Snake King roared, utterly insulted.
Hearing the Snake King's words, the Beiming Li Fish beca enraged. A large amount of white mist billowed from its body. The surrounding temperature was already very low, but it dropped even further when the white mist appeared.
"Let's attack it together! I refuse to believe it can freeze us again!" Ye Tian said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Snake Bone Sword in the Snake King's hand dipped slightly, and he unleashed an extrely powerful blast of Sword Qi toward the Beiming Li Fish.
The Eight-winged Golden Scale Python, for its part, sent a bolt of purple lightning as thick as an arm striking toward the Beiming Li Fish. This was likely its most powerful attack…
