Li Wenbin, Li Ting, and Yan Lan happened to land in front of the ice cliff cave. Other than the cave that was still hanging there, the entire ice cliff had collapsed. Even a creature as large as the Icy Plains Sacred Bear couldn't withstand such a collapse!
Everyone stared at Mu Ningxue in shock.
They couldn't tell if the ice cliff had collapsed on its own or if Mu Ningxue was the one controlling it.
If Mu Ningxue was the one controlling it, this was too ridiculous. They didn't even see Mu Ningxue construct a Star Palace. How could she create such a destructive force in such a short period of time?!
Mu Ningxue didn't stay in front of the cave. She saw a piece of ice wriggling within the collapsed ice cliff. As expected, the Icy Plains Sacred Bear wouldn't die so easily. It knocked away the ice cliff fragments on its body and limped away into the distance.
Eight pairs of Wind Wings appeared on Mu Ningxue's back. Each pair of wings was as white as a feather, with clear lines of the wind. They were gentle yet sacred, yet agile and powerful.
Waving the sixteen Wind Wings, Mu Ningxue easily caught up to the Icy Plains Sacred Bear. The wind was cold and the wind traces danced. One could see Mu Ningxue drawing a Wind Bow in the air. Together with the Wind Wings on her back, she pulled the string of the Wind Bow to its limit!
"Weng!"
The cone-shaped Wind Arrow was like a drill through a mountain. It forcefully opened a bloody hole in the Icy Plains Sacred Bear's hard armor. Its boiling blood seeped out and melted the ice on the ground when it touched it!
The Icy Plains Sacred Bear fell forward. Just as it got up, Mu Ningxue stepped on its back. The Irascible Bear felt a sense of humiliation. It turned the humiliation into endless anger. Its golden fur stood up and a terrifying beast aura was emitted!
Mu Ningxue beat her Wind Wings and soared into the sky. However, as she rose into the air, more ice spears poured down like rain, forming a forest of ice spears around the Sacred Bear and the area within a kilometer of it!
The Icy Plains Sacred Bear had just stood up to counterattack. It didn't even manage to touch the corner of Mu Ningxue's clothes before it was immediately tortured by the ice spears. No matter how it tried to dodge, it was useless. It could only use its claws to hug its head and bear it in pain …
Very quickly, the Icy Plains Sacred Bear's body was covered in wounds. Many incomparably tough ice spears were still stuck in its body.
However, this fellow's life force was truly tenacious. Even though it was covered in wounds, it didn't fall. It raised its head and roared at Mu Ningxue in the air. Its golden eyes were practically burning with flames!
Mu Ningxue clenched her fist in the air. Tiny ice particles suddenly appeared around the Icy Plains Sacred Bear. These ice particles gathered together and formed a huge ice ring.
The ice ring suddenly shrunk and locked onto the Icy Plains Sacred Bear's throat like shackles. The Icy Plains Sacred Bear could no longer roar.
Very quickly, a few more ice rings appeared and locked onto the Icy Plains Sacred Bear's claws, legs, and mouth. This made this ancient beast look like a wild beast in a zoo for children to see. This ensured that it wouldn't pose any threat to others …
"Take its blood." Mu Ningxue said to Li Wenbin.
Li Wenbin stared at the subdued Icy Plains Sacred Bear and the bloody hole on its back. For a moment, he didn't know how to react.
The Sacred Bear's blood was abundant. It didn't take long for them to collect a few jars of it. It was enough to fill up a small hot spring. It was boiling hot and filled with power. It didn't have the stench of wild beasts.
However, until now, Li Wenbin still hadn't recovered from the shock.
The three of them had been following Mu Ningxue closely. In the end, they didn't even have a chance to make a move. The seemingly invincible Icy Plains Sacred Bear was subdued by Mu Ningxue. This gave Li Wenbin and Li Ting the illusion that the ruler of the Extreme South was weaker than the ruler of the outside world!
As a matter of fact, the Icy Plains Sacred Bear was not weak at all. They could easily tell how powerful the ancient Sacred Bear was just by looking at its blood. It would be the leader or ruler of a huge tribe in any place. Mu Ningxue's strength was simply too terrifying. She had cast a few powerful destructive spells in a row in one go. They couldn't even see the process of her casting, nor did she have the stiffness and pauses that most Mages would have when casting their spells …
What level had she reached with her Ice Magic to be able to cast it so easily?
…
After acquiring the Sacred Bear's blood, Yan Lan and her staff processed it and drank it as a warm red milk.
Wang Shuo's speculation was right. The boiling hot blood of the creature from the Icy Plains Sacred Bear was indeed able to resist the cold. It would form a special heat in the stomach and spread throughout the body.
With the help of the energy, the fear and uneasiness in everyone's hearts gradually dissipated.
"Professor Wang, this blood seems to only be able to temporarily alleviate the effects of the frost. It can't completely eliminate the poison. Furthermore, the deeper we go, the less effective the blood seems to be," Li Wenbin whispered to Wang Shuo.
"I know, but it should be enough for us to reach the Southernmost Outpost," Wang Shuo replied.
The blood of the creatures was not enough to solve the problem. Even if they still had a lot of blood, they would still be frozen in the cold.
Everyone soon realized that only the fresh blood of the creatures from the Icy Plains Sacred Bear was able to resist the cold. It meant they had to keep searching for the Icy Plains Sacred Bear …
…
On the way, Mu Ningxue killed a Howling Wolf King and a Thousand Years Snow Python. Their blood was nowhere as hot as the Sacred Bear's.
On the third day, everyone was in an extremely weak state. They could not even cast their magic to continue their journey. They were like a bunch of clumsy zombies slowly moving forward among the flying ice dragons.
In front of them was a chilling darkness. People broke down one after another, crying and making a fuss like children. They were unwilling to take even half a step forward.
The cold had taken away the magic that everyone was most proud of. Without their magic, they were worse than rabbits in the woods, not to mention that the Southernmost Outpost was a hundred times scarier than the Devil Woods!
"Are we all going to die here?" Yan Lan lost the strength to speak.
