Age of Adepts

Frost Breath!

Incomparably pure and powerful.

The breath attack contained no other elementium or physical effect apart from the extreme, bone-chilling cold!

That was enough to deal with mortal enemies!

A Frost Breath was no more than a single-attribute elementium attack, after all– Greem had seen plenty of similar attacks. It didn’t matter if it was an all-out attack from a Second Grade ice dragon or a Fourth Grade ice giant’s desperate retaliation. The effects of a breath attack might differ, but the attack’s power would always remain within the limits of the planar laws.

However, this Frost Breath…was clearly beyond the limits of Fourth Grade. It was approaching the power of the gods.

Indeed, the power of the gods!

Gods were higher beings with terrifying powers beyond what was possible for mortals. They were individuals that had transcended the limitations of the planar laws. Divine spells driven by divine power were naturally tens, even hundreds, of times more potent than ordinary magic!

Only flames imbued with law power could penetrate the ice mist surrounding Nax and slowly inflict fire damage on its skeletal body.

Of course, the damage being inflicted was minimal.

However, Greem wasn’t Nax’s only enemy.

While the skeletal ice dragon was furiously chasing after Greem, a large cloud of death energy and several unusual void runes landed on its body.

Where the death energy spread, the ice crystals melted and the cold dissipated.

The bones engulfed by the death energy instantly turned pale white. The dragon’s bone spikes and ice forcefield started to sizzle and turn black.

The void runes were even more mysterious. They completely ignored the skeletal dragon’s defenses and drifted into its bones, causing the ice energy in its body to turn volatile.

If it wasn’t for the terrifying ice forcefield in Nax’s body, and his powerful Spirit that neutralized part of the void damage, Tulas might have been able to scatter the ice energy in the dragon’s body into terrifying chaos energy.

Chaos energy was a vicious poison for any planar creature!

The poison of energy!

Nax reared its neck and let out a loud roar. A hint of pain could be heard in its cry.

Four hundred years. It had been four hundred years since the last time it had felt pain.

A group of bastards had broken into its place, injured its noble body, and were plotting to steal its most precious treasure.

Nax could no longer suppress its anger at the thought of that. It wanted to use its merciless dragon breath to turn its enemies into ice sculptures and personally crush them to pieces with its body.

Nax roared furiously. Blue light gleamed in its eyes as powerful ice energy immediately filled the entire palace.

Once as hard as steel and smooth as a mirror, the floor of the palace began to shake violently and undulate as if a wave was passing through the ground.

Ice spikes pierced out of the floor, instantly turning the hall into a sea of ice clusters.

The towering clumps of ice took up most of the palace’s space and obscured everyone’s vision. The countless reflections from the ice surfaces disoriented the invaders, making it difficult for them to determine the skeletal dragon’s genuine position.

The mist of ice that filled the hall also had the effect of weakening and refracting Spiritual senses. It effectively suppressed the senses of the invaders.

This place was Nax’s home field, after all.

It couldn’t be any more familiar with every inch of space in this palace. It knew every curve and every corner down to the very last detail. When everyone’s senses were obscured, the invaders would lose their numerical and strategic advantage as a team, while Nax would be able to hunt them down freely.

Sshina, who was the weakest of them all, was instantly on edge. Her hissing snake-hair flicked their forked tongues, helping her watch over every possible direction from which the enemy could approach.

She concealed her own aura and silently slithered across the ceiling.

The forest of ice clusters beneath her was shrouded in mist. Tens of thousands of silhouettes moved between the ice crystals. It was impossible to tell which were real and which were only reflections, and even more impossible to tell where everyone’s actual position was.

Starspirit Tulas’ body transformed into a cloud glowing with an unusual, dark light. He slowly merged with the ice mist and vanished without a trace.

Greem laughed at the sight of this. Fire blazed around him as he vanished from sight, protected by the law of Invisible Flames.

In the blink of an eye, Kanganas became the only person left in the room!
