Endless Army—
Near the Region of Lake of Frozen Tears:
"How about we stop fighting and try to escape?" Sheng Tian blocked the dozens of ice swords incoming at him with his red sword and yelled at the Leng Yue Yan who was also fighting hundreds of Frozen Statues.
These statues were 3 meters tall and were in the shapes of humans, lions, snakes and various others.
Their cultivation bases varied from Nascent Soul Realm to Peak of Earth Realm, however, Sheng Tian also sensed a second stage Sky Realm Enemy.
He was at the very end of the Frozen Army.
Facing the rain of spears and swords, the pair of Sheng Tian and Leng Yue Yan could only try to protect themselves, until Sheng Tian suggested an escape.
"How do you think we can escape?" The cold voice of Ice Goddess entered his ears.
"You can fly."he obliterated a dozen of Earth Realm Frozen Statues and jumped towards her.
"What about you?"with an emotionless tone, her sword danced in a wavy curve and blasted tens of frozen statues and tightened her grip and moved away from him.
He pulled a long face and sighed "You can escape without me. I will sacrifice myself to save you, cold girl."
The look on his face was that of a determined solider who was ready to face the world for his goal.
Leng Yue Yan snorted and shot a beam of ice profound energy towards him.
"Hey!" He exclaimed and dodged the lethal sword beam.
"Be serious."she glared at him and her aura exploded dozens of enemies.
"You fly me. Problem solved."he smiled shamelessly, shooting a glance at her chest imagining he could have a "smooth" ride.
"You! Pervert!"with an embarrassed face, a soft palm attack shot at Sheng Tian, almost smashing him.
"Ouch. Yue Yan, either follow what I say or do what you want. I'm not your enemy here." He dodged in a hair's breadth and yelled.
Leng Yue Yan's actions halted for a moment and the expression on her face turned serious.
She quickly slashed her sword in a full circle around her and destroyed all the enemies around her.
With a flash, she landed next to Sheng Tian hundreds of meters away. "Stop calling me Yue Yan." She made a threatening gesture and warned him, only to get a humble and shameless smile.
Leng Yue Yan closed her eyes and spread her spirit sense.
Now, they were in the centre of hundreds of frozen statues. Despite their bickering, they managed to kill over 200 Ice Creatures.
There are at least eight hundred more enemies including their leader who was at the end of the army, a few kilometres away.
Putting her soft hands on his shoulders, Leng Yue Yan's body dashed high into the air carrying Sheng Tian with her.
However, the next second they were stunned speechless.
The frozen statues all began to fly in the air, as their backs unleashed their hidden wings.
Sheng Tian shook his head and turned to Leng Yue Yan "It seems like the plan will change. I will kill them all. You kill their leader, his aura, I think you can manage."
"Are you crazy? There are so many of them! Even I will be on my end if I fight them all." With a stern face, she harshly scolded him.
Instead of feeling angry, Sheng Tian felt happy being scolded. After all, who would scolded you for your own good, that shows the person cares about you, right?
"Shau"
"Shaaa"
With the sound of slicing air, the frozen soldiers plunged towards them as their weapons shone with intense profound energy.
"What are you foolishly grinning for?" Dodging the attacks, Leng Yue Yan glared at him.
"What? You can't resist my charm?" He grinned at her.
"Go die." Leng Yue Yan released her grip on his shoulders and Sheng Tian was left without any protection hundreds of meters above the air.
"Damn it." Sheng Tian blasted profound energy from his feet and caught her snow white wrists like a child holding his mom's hands.
"Have some mercy."he tried to flash a flattering smile, while on the inside he vowed 'See if I don't pay this back. I'm not the one to eat losses.'
With a dramatic sigh, Leng Yue Yan nodded but continued to glare at him.
"Alright. I can say for sure that there are very few people who can last in any battle as long as I can." He said with a humble smile on his face.
If Xiao Lian heard his words, she would definitely beat him up for the perverted tone of his words. Alas, Leng Yue Yan had no idea about these things and chose to believe him.
After all, being with him made her realise that he was peculiar from the norm in many ways and common sense just didn't apply to him.
However, he truly meant the normal "battles" this time or maybe something more.
Seeing her relax, Sheng Tian grinned and shot profound energy from the back of his body, gaining forward momentum to land on the back of a winged tiger. With a light punch, he brought it into submission and ordered it to land.
Chasing him, the rest of the Ice Creatures also landed to fight him.
Leng Yue Yan's lips curled up forming a slight smile before it vanished without a trace and she flew to the end of the sea of frozen creatures, dodging their crazy attacks.
Spreading her spirt sense, she spotted a Flood dragon smirking at her.
It was over 50 meters tall and had wide wings at least 30 meters each. It's body, like all other ice sculptures, was made of ancient Ice and emitted a deep aura.
The situation caused her heart to sink.
A flood dragon is not a true dragon. At most, it can only be considered to be snake with wings.
However, the horror of this species cannot be ignored.
If the flood dragon was only an ice statue made of only ice, she would have not had the same reaction.
However, though the flood dragon in front was not a true creature, it is not a pure Ice Statue either. It is a the fusion of essences of a real flood dragon and enchanted Ice!
Sensing the cultivation, though it's at the second level of sky realm, the same as her, Leng Yue Yan was not sure of a victory.
That is because of the abnormal defense and regeneration the dragon species is known for!
Though the flood dragon is not a true dragon, it is on the way to true dragonhood and thus has some of the attributes developed.
Nevertheless, Leng Yue Yan glared at the flood dragon before dashing down at it with her Snow Storm sword at the forefront of her.
"You are courting death trying to enter the Frozen Lake of Tears. Even more so if you are humans."a tyrannical aura exploded from the flood dragon as it spoke with a hoarse voice.
Leng Yue Yan was surprised to find the reason they were being attacked, but she had no intention to explain herself. The reason was very simple, if they did know that the path lead to the so called Lake of Frozen Tears, they would actively pursue the path and set out to reach the lake.
This is because both of them wanted strength, strength and strength!
"Butterfly of Winter" Leng Yue Yan decided to use major attacks from the start and end the battle soon and she was so wrong.
A phantom butterfly made from pure Ice Profound Energy was formed as it hung on the tip of her sword and eventually covered her entire body.
Looking at the young girl with her entire body enveloped in the butterfly phantom, the flood dragon only smirked before it raised its claws and punched out "Dragon's World Destruction Fist."
A ruthless aura emerged from its claws and confronted Leng Yue Yan's bone chilling aura, before they annihilated each other.
"Boom"
Leng Yue Yan was pushed back as she landed on the ground.
The flood dragon stared at her with interest and said "I've been staying her for many years. There were no enemies here for a long time. Me and my army naturally dropped our cultivation realms. Now that you're here, I can cultivate with you to the OverLord Realm, hehe." With a sinister chuckle, it licked its lips with its serpent tongue.
Leng Yue Yan's countenance grew heavy before her aura exploded with intense bone chilling killing intent surprising even the arrogant Flood Dragon. She raised her sword and dashed at the Flood Dragon with twice the speed as before.
On the other end, Sheng Tian was in the middle of the 800 ice creatures that crazily attacked him.
There were at least 500 Earth profound beasts and the rest were only in the Nascent Soul Realm.
Sheng Tian was right when he told the Ice Goddess that there are few on this planet can compete with him in terms of persevere in a battle. In fact, he was being humble!
No matter the number of enemies, as long he had a breath left, he can still fight!
Because he had something no one else did—Primal Seed!
It's an object transcending the scope of his understanding. Yet with the little he learnt about it, he was able to garner profound energy at an insane rate any time, even during battles with little to no concentration on it!
This is one of the biggest advantages of Sheng Tian!
That is why unless someone can overpower Sheng Tian and break his sturdy defences, there is no way he can lose!
So, Sheng Tian never feared fighting large armies, as long as he could injure them.
The only enemy he dreaded was the one who could absolutely crush him.
"Divine Dragon Roar." With a deep breath, he muttered and directed his attack in the range of 100 meters.
"Thud."
"Plop."
"Bam."
With heavy noises, the 80 ice creatures in the concentrated range; be it Earth Realm or Nascent Soul Realm, collapsed on the ground as the Ice on their body cracked continuously. They were dead!
"Whoah" even though he knew the effect of Divine Dragon Roar, Sheng Tian was still shocked seeing its stunning effects.
"Butter fly of Winter." He smirked and rotated in the air, sending dozens Phantoms of Ice butterfly at the Ice Creatures.
"Boom."
With a light tremor, their bodies were blasted to smithereens, reaping 100 lives!
All the while, Sheng Tian continued to use the Primal Seed in his dantian to garner and recover profound energy.
"Roar" the ice creatures roared in unison, almost shaking off Sheng Tian' balance in the air with pure force of wind alone!
Grinning at the remaining 660 ice creatures, Sheng Tian closed his eyes and a pitch black aura exploded from his sword "Finally, I can test this on you."
"Dark Sword Arts, second move—Heaven's Wrath!"
The air grew heavy as if mountains were placed in it. The creatures in the surrounding 500 meters were pressed to the ground under the terrifying force.
Sheng Tian's sword shone with a dazzling pitch black light before it formed a large circle spanning over a 100 meters filled with profound energy and was of blackness darker than the night.
The circle of darkness descended upon the creatures and a blinding light shone, forcing him to close his eyes.
When he opened his eyes a little and peeked at the attack place, his jaw dropped and eyes almost popped out.
There is no creature! No bodies! No essence! Nothing was left.
Every enemy in that 100 meter radius circle, over a 100 of them, all dead! There is not even a trace of their auras, much less their body parts.
How crazy is such attack?
"Gulp." Sheng Tian could hear his own throat swallowing saliva, 'Just what did this girl teach me? Such crazy Profound Art—Dark Sword Arts, huh.'
He didn't know that the profound arts taught by Xiao Lian were coveted even by Divine Gods and Goddesses of the Divine Realm.
His level is just too low to grasp these things, but when he does, his reaction would definitely be interesting.
"Let's just get this done." With his level, he can barely use the second move of the Dark Sword Arts, his face was pale white.
"Let's do this!" Trying to hold out for a minute before his emptied dantian can have some profound energy, he laughed out loud.
