Chapter 409 - Ch 409: Deep Inside The Crack
The Ice Spikes shot towards Ye Xiao who was now flying in the air at a few meters distance from the ground.
Ye Xiao was surprised that the Man-Demon Ice Horse could control the Ice Spikes psychically.
He immediately started dodging but the Ice Spikes kept turning in the air and again chased after him.
Ye Xiao knew very well that letting this continue would do no good to him, so he stopped flying and stopped in the mid-air. Then he used the First Style of the Sea Dragon Descends and made countless Dragon Claws collide with the Ice Spikes.
In this attack, Ye Xiao was at a disadvantage as he was pushed back several meters but still, he managed to cancel out the attack of the Man-Demon Ice Horse.
"Fuse!"
It was at this moment when Ye Xiao gave out an order and tens of Fire Clones started merging with one another.
One single Fire Clone could show Ye Xiao's 90% of prowess but after fusing with each other, they could show at least 150% of his prowess.. Although this consumes a large amount of energy, Ye Xiao was not worried about that. He could just devour the spirit energy in an instant if needed.
This attack was something he had used only one time when he was still at the Holy Beast Continent. Now, it was the second time when he was going through the same attack.
After all the Fire Clones fused into one, Ye Xiao again said one word: "Merge!"
The moment Ye Xiao said the word 'merge', the Fire clone shot towards Ye Xiao before entering his body.
His body was immediately set ablaze as the Fire covered every part of his body, making him look like a man on fire.
Then, an astounding scene appeared that really shocked all the people that were watching Ye Xiao fighting against the Man-Demon Ice Horse. They could not help but stand up from their seats while exclaiming out loud.
Because of the Sun Fire Soul as well as the fusion of Fire Clones with one another before finally merging with Ye Xiao's body, a terrifying temperature rose. The temperature was so high that it immediately started melting the Ice on the ground.
This temperature also affected the Man-Demon Ice Horse. It let out a roar that clearly had a hint of fear in it before retreating a few steps back.
At the same time, Ye Xiao's cultivation also increased from the Late Stage of Immortal Lord Realm to the Early Stage of the Immortal King Realm, making his aura even more stronger.
His aura alone now had the pressure enough to suppress the Man-Demon Ice Horse. It was all due to the fire energy that was coming out of his body, making the already terrifying temperature even more hotter.
"Let's end the battle!" Ye Xiao smiled and said in a low voice while looking at the Man-Demon Ice Horse.
Although he didn't need to go to such length by merging with his fire clones to kill the Man-Demon Ice Horse and he could have killed it with any of the abilities that he had gotten from the four dragons, he still choose to not reveal these abilities.
Hiding an ability was equivalent to hiding a chance to live. Ye Xiao knew this fact clearly. He also knew many people were currently watching him, so he decided to stay careful and not reveal his abilities.
He also hide away the two martial arts skills that he had created during the state of enlightenment.
Ye Xiao flapped his wings and appeared behind the Man-Demon Ice Horse and punched at the man-head that was growing out at the back of this beast.
"Bang!"
"Roar!"
The moment Ye Xiao's fist made contact with the man-head of the Man-Demon Ice Horse, it exploded like watermelon, and blood splattered in every direction.
The Man-Demon Ice Horse let out a painful cry and immediately distanced itself from Ye Xiao.
The place where Ye Xiao was standing immediately started melting because of the high temperature.
In the eyes of the people who were watching him from afar with the help of the Water Screen, the hot temperature that was coming out from Ye Xiao's body right now was in no way less than the hot temperature in the core area of the Land of Fire where Xu Feiyi was fighting against the Fire Demon.
Ye Xiao again flapped his wings and disappeared from his spot before reappearing in front of the Man-Demon Ice Horse.
"Roar!"
The Man-Demon Ice Horse again let out a furious but painful roar at Ye Xiao, warning Ye Xiao not to attack again.
Ye Xiao smiled again and punched out.
"Roar!"
The Man-Demon Ice Horse again roared. Then it again slammed its foot on the ground as tens of Ice spikes grew out which then shot towards Ye Xiao.
But before they could even reach him, they started to melt at a fast speed and melted away completely even before reaching Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao's punch again landed on the Man-Demon Ice Horse's back and it was forced to take a few steps back while the place where Ye Xiao's punch landed was burnt to black immediately.
It was too painful for the Man-Demon Ice Horse to endure the pain coming out from his destroyed man-head and burnt part of the body. It knew that it had underestimated the young man in front of it. It also knew that it was now in great danger and the young man in front of it could kill it anytime he wants.
The only way to save its life was to hide inside the icy ground once again.
The Man-Demon Ice Horse let out a strange roar that was filled with both fear and threat. Then it again slammed its feet on the ground and the ground trembled wildly.
The ground was split into two and the Man-Demon Ice Horse jumped down immediately.
Ye Xiao immediately knew that the Man-Demon Ice Horse wanted to escape. But would he let the Man-Demon Ice Horse escape this easily? The answer was no.
"Soul Destruction!"
Ye Xiao immediately used the "Soul Destruction" to destroy the soul of the Man-Demon Ice Horse. Without an exception, the Man-Demon Ice Horse immediately lost its life, but since it had already jumped down in the big crack that appeared after the ground was split into two, no one was able to see it die. Everyone only thought that the Man-Demon Ice Horse escaped from Ye Xiao's clutches.
After killing the Man-Demon Ice Horse, Ye Xiao also followed it and also jumped down in the crack.
The moment Ye Xiao jumped down in the crack, his figure disappeared from the Water Screen. Now, no one was able to see him.
Wu Cheng, Huang Daniu, and other people's faces changed. They could not help but worry about Ye Xiao. They also cursed Ye Xiao for his foolish action in their hearts.
Ye Xiao kept falling deep in the ground. The crack seemed to be limitless as the end never appeared. Ye Xiao's body was still on fire as he kept falling deep into the ground. At this time, he could not even see the corpse of the Man-Demon Ice Horse. It was as if the Man-Demon Ice Horse had completely disappeared.
"Thud!"
After falling for another minute or two, Ye Xiao heard a loud 'thud' sound. This sound was as if a heavy thing has just fallen to the ground from the height of at least 1000 meters.
Ye Xiao immediately started flapping his wings and slowly flew down and very soon, landed on the ground.
Because of the Sun Fire that was covering his entire body and was burning fiercely, the darkness immediately disappeared, revealing the true face of this place.
If not for the high temperature that was exuding out from Ye Xiao's body, he would have immediately frozen in this place. Even though right now his entire body was covered with the fire, he could still feel the coldness surrounding this place.
This was enough to let people know how terrifyingly cold this place was.
What shocked Ye Xiao was not the extreme cold but the fact that there were tens of different creatures hiding in this place. Some of them were still in deep slumber while some of them had woken up because of the loud noise that echoed out after the Man-Demon Ice Horse fell on the ground.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
Many fierce roars echoed out throughout the place and even went outside because of the crack via which, Ye Xiao came to this place.
Ye Xiao could see each and every one of these beasts were at least at the Late Stage of the Immortal King Realm. Some of them were even at the Early Stage and Middle Stage of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
What is more, although some of these terrifying beasts were still in deep slumber, once they woke up, it'll be extremely difficult for Ye Xiao to deal with them.
