Mo Fan turned around to take a closer look at the man on the hill. A crystalline, silver-white color had begun to spread from the irregular terrain of the hill to the shoal through the woods. It was like the clouds in the sky had suddenly come down to the ground and the forest, rapidly covering it all in ice and forming a realm of crystals due to the extremely low temperature on the ground!

The ice was spreading very quickly, similar to how sunlight could drive away the darkness. The Icecloud Crystal Realm was not changing the terrains; it was dominating it by establishing a kingdom of ice that did not exist initially, as if the God of Snow or the Goddess of Ice had arrived!

The army of Manta Ray Evil Birds was a tsunami of black clouds from the deep ocean, bringing darkness upon the area. In contrast, the Icecloud Crystal Realm was pure and sacred. The two forces collided with one another where Mo Fan and the Bird Emperor were, resulting in a massive conflict of the black and white!

Mo Fan did not overthink the situation. He quickly used the Shadow Element to escort the heavily injured Bird Emperor out of the area. The person who had cast the powerful spell had obviously left Mo Fan an escape route. Mo Fan quickly fled toward the woods.

The Manta Ray Evil Birds were making the same dull screeches. Those at the front turned into ice statues as soon as they touched the boundary of the Icecloud Crystal Realm. They kept moving forward from their momentum before falling onto the ground and shattering into pieces!

The Manta Ray Evil Birds were wild and noisy, but it felt like they had stumbled into a quiet yet deadly drawing of snow when they entered the Icecloud Crystal Realm. The world in the drawing did not permit the existence of any noise, nor did it allow any creatures to fly freely within its boundaries. The Icecloud Crystal Realm continued to spread toward the army of Manta Ray Evil Birds. It continuously took their lives as they froze in the air before smashing into pieces scattered across the ground.

“A Super Level Ice Spell!” Mo Fan turned around when he reached the woods. He was dumbfounded when he saw the Ice Magic continuing to spread toward the sea, freezing and crushing the rows of Lesser Featherless Birds.

As expected of a Super Spell, it was much stronger than his fake Super Spells, especially in an environment like this. The destruction a Super Spell could bring was immeasurable. The army of Manta Ray Evil Birds thought they had forced Mo Fan and the Bird Emperor into a corner, so they were charging at them recklessly. As a result, the Super Ice Spell had wiped them all out instead!

Even low-level creatures were sensitive toward any potential danger most of the time. The energy produced when constructing a Star Palace to cast a Super Spell would cause space itself to vibrate. Therefore, most demon creatures would subconsciously back away and scatter across the area. A Super Spell would end up less effective than the predicted outcome.

However, this outcome was totally different. The Manta Ray Evil Birds were too eager to taste the meat first, since there were so many of them. The Bird Emperor was nowhere big enough for them to take a bite each. Only those at the front would have a chance to eat its flesh and drink its blood, which was why Mo Fan felt like he was watching a tide of black clouds rolling in his direction. They had lost the chance to turn around when the Icecloud Crystal Realm came, especially when the Manta Ray Evil Birds at the back were constantly pushing ahead those in front!

Some of the Manta Ray Evil Birds between the shoal and the sea tried to flee for their lives. They immediately turned around with their outstanding agility, but they ended up crashing into the Manta Ray Evil Birds behind them, who were still unaware of the situation. It resulted in a chain collision among the members of the flock. Many of the creatures actually died to their comrades’ sharp foreheads and wings. Their bodies froze before they even reached the ground, and eventually smashed into pieces like brittle crystals!

The Icecloud Crystal Realm had placed half the seaward shore into winter. A huge part of the sea had fallen victim to it, too. Mo Fan was astounded as everything came to a still.

The man surrounded by the icy mist was still standing on the hill. The illusionary silhouette of the Snow Mistress had dissipated. Mo Fan followed the trail through the iced-over woods and carried the Bird Emperor to the top of the mountain.

“If you were a little late, you would have had to search for my remains among those birds’ dung,” Mo Fan panted heavily.

“Something went wrong?” Mu Bai had a puzzled look when he saw the heavily injured Bird Emperor.

“I think I found the Totem Beast that Old Zhao is after, but those Manta Ray Evil Birds are now revolting and acting outrageously. I’ve been poisoned too, so I was in a pinch there. Your Super Spell is quite impressive. It saved my life,” Mo Fan complimented him.

“The same poison that Zhao Manyan suffered from?”

Mu Bai was well aware of Mo Fan’s power. Even if he was struggling against the overwhelming numbers of the Manta Ray Evil Birds, he would not end up in such a miserable condition, unless his strength was weakened because of the poison.

“Yeah, do you still have the Antidote Silkworm?” Mo Fan could feel his head spinning.

“Drink this. Your poison is worse than the one Zhao Manyan suffered from. The fact that you’re still conscious now just shows how tough your body is,” Mu Bai said after inspecting Mo Fan’s injuries.

“Why didn’t you use the antidote before?” Mo Fan’s eyes widened.

Mo Fan had already prepared himself to let the Antidote Silkworm dig into his wounds and suck the poison away. He would then head to the toilet to get rid of the silkworm. Little did he know, Mu Bai actually had a much simpler and more civilized way of curing the poison!

“It wasn’t an emergency back then, so it was better to save the antidotes,” Mu Bai said calmly, as if he did not feel guilty at all when Zhao Manyan was howling and shrieking in the toilet.

“…” Mo Fan was left speechless.

—

The Manta Ray Evil Birds stopped pursuing them. Mu Bai’s Super Spell had dealt a great blow to their ranks, and the creatures would have to regroup first. Mo Fan and Mu Bai used the delay in their attacks to hide the Bird Emperor in the mountain.

Mu Bai managed to find a secluded spot. He was going to treat Mo Fan’s injuries, but Mo Fan asked him to freeze the Bird Emperor’s belly first.

Mu Bai inspected the Bird Emperor and noticed the creature’s life was indeed in danger. He quickly froze the ghastly wound.

The Bird Emperor seemed to still be conscious. It glanced at Mo Fan through the transparent layer of ice around it.

“Hide in there for now, leave the rest to us,” Mo Fan told the Bird Emperor.

“Luckily, it’s a Ruler-level creature. Any other creature’s vitality wouldn’t be so outstanding,” Mu Bai noted.

The creature’s organs had been destroyed when its abdomen was torn open. It was a miracle that the creature had survived!
