"During this period of time, I have to go to the border to deal with the war affairs. I have no time to manage the trivial matters of this island and the Galaxy. I heard from a descendant that the Glacier King seems to have been constantly harassing their nests recently. Many giant spiders have already died in its hands." Queen Atlas waved her limbs and said faintly, "That guy is the natural enemy of our giant spider race. I am the only one in the race who can fight it now, but I can't refuse the recruitment order at the border. I don't want to come back after a year and a half to see empty giant spider nests."
The Glacier King was the strongest batch of Monarch Grade disasters a hundred years ago. After being injured by the black fire of the player lighthouse, it had been in a deep sleep. It was only when the black fire was absorbed by Fei Yujing that it was revived and almost destroyed the Ice Scar Fortress. Fortunately, after waking up, in order to recover its strength, it left the edge of the Galaxy and went to an unknown place to fall into a new deep sleep.
Otherwise, the situation back then might not have been like this.
It was a Dominator and the most famous Ice-type disaster. Its ability and attributes were very effective against the Darkness-type giant spiders. The venom and spider silk that the giant spiders were proud of had a reduced effect in the ice and snow domain. Therefore, at the same level, the giant spiders would be countered by the Glacier King's Ice Bear.
However, at the level of Monarch Grade and Dominator Grade, there was no such thing as a real counter. Who was strong and who was weak depended on their control of power and their understanding of the law. In this regard, Queen Atlas, who was older and had lived longer, had the advantage.
"You want me to deal with a Dominator? I am only Level 7. "Li Xiang smiled faintly. He did not agree or refuse.
Level 6 was just the threshold of the Advanced, and Level 7 was only the level of Night Shadow. Only a few Level 8 and Level 9 players could really talk to a Dominator.
This was known to all.
Queen Atlas smiled gently and quickly weaved a fine spider web. She hooked the little fellow in Li Xiang's arms with spider silk and placed her on the spider web bed. She shook the spider web like a mother, and the little fellow slept even more soundly.
"Giant spiders can also control dreams and sleep. I will also give these two abilities to this little fellow."
Queen Atlas continued to add chips. She didn't care how much she had to pay, she only cared about the result.
As for whether or not Li Xiang could fight against the Frozen Grain Monarch, she had a better say than most of the Calamities.
When Li Xiang was still level 6, he was able to exchange blows with him. He even managed to escape with Xin Yi a few times. This was enough to show that he was much stronger than other players.
After levelling up, he and Xin Yi's mysterious origin aura could suppress her giant spider aura.
That was the aura of a Great Old One, an existence at the top of the food chain! His rank was actually lower than theirs.
Furthermore, Queen Atlas had also heard of Li Xiang's achievements and deeds from many sources. He might not be able to kill the Frost King, but he definitely had the ability to help her drive away this annoying fellow.
That was enough.
"It's still not enough," Li Xiang said leisurely while eating a scone over the fire.
It's still not enough!
Queen Atlas' face darkened. She subconsciously looked at Xin Yi who was sleeping on the spider web. She suppressed her killing intent and said word by word, "When we head to the border in the future, I will pay attention to not take the initiative to attack the people of the New Polar Night."
"Deal." Li Xiang's lips curled up slightly.
.....
The next day, just as the Crimson Moon rose, Li Xiang, who was still in a daze, was picked up and hung on Li Xiang's body like a koala bear. He followed him deeper into the sea of stars.
According to the information given by Queen Atlas, he quickly found the habitat of the Frozen Grain Monarch.
Just as he approached the island, the weather suddenly changed. The entire sky seemed to be covered in ice and snow. A powerful and boundless aura fell from all directions and enveloped Li Xiang.
It was an indescribably huge domain. In the depths of the domain, a pair of black and white eyes peered over.
The projection of the Frozen Grain Monarch floated in the air. Below him was continuous snow and wind. The domain took shape and placed him in it. Countless wind and snow whistled. A blizzard was about to arrive.
Li Xiang's clothes were instantly covered in a layer of frost. Xin Yi, who was in his arms, sneezed. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked up. She was shocked by the huge Frozen Bear.
"Xin Yi, go sleep somewhere else. Daddy will be back soon." Li Xiang threw the little girl in his arms down. Ignoring her reaction, he pulled out the Eternal Purgatory from his back. Holding the Heaven of Ashes in his hand, he walked toward the sky step by step.
An invisible staircase seemed to form under his feet, leading to the Frozen Bear's projection.
The shadow was so huge that it covered the sky and the sun. Its snow-white fur was vivid and lifelike, and inside it were squirming and rotating eyeballs. The muscles under the fur were like worms surging, making one's hair stand on end just by looking at it.
Countless white gas rose from the ground, and the sky seemed to be frozen.
"Roar!!!"
The Frozen Grain Monarch let out an earth-shaking roar. It was a warning and a threat to Li Xiang.
No expert would allow others to enter their territory as they wished.
Li Xiang was unmoved. His body emitted a dark golden aura, isolating the domain.
Wherever he went, the ice domain would lose effect. After he left, it would recover.
After realizing that this wasn't an ordinary opponent, the Ice Bear's shadow immediately sank down and unleashed a thunderous roar.
The wind and clouds changed color. Thunder roared. Ice and snow intersected.
Li Xinyi, who was thrown to the ground by her father, was dizzy. She forced herself to look up and see the situation in the snow.
A few mutants wanted to sneak attack her in the snow, but they were stopped by a few giant spiders.
The giant spiders surrounded Li Xinyi and weaved a huge spider web to block the wind and snow for her.
This was the Giant Spider Race's way of showing respect to their pureblood descendants. Although this strange pureblood had the body and face of a human, the blood energy in her body wouldn't lie. She had the same bloodline as the Queen, and that was enough.
The little girl grinned and jumped onto the spider web. She used it as a comfortable bed to lie down and watch the battle between her father and the ruler.
In an instant, the two sides completed their first clash. It was a pure clash of strength.
The huge and terrifying Frozen Bear projection was annihilated by the azure pillar of light the moment it collided.
In its initial state, the purification ability of the Paradise of Annihilation was no longer the same.
Li Xiang looked at the projection that was gradually disappearing in the void. He took a deep breath and stood upright. Destroying the Frozen Grain Monarch's projection would definitely attract the ruler's true body.
He looked down. Li Xinyi had already retreated to a safe position. There was also a group of giant spiders guarding her. There was no need to be overly worried.
Above his head, a huge fellow that was hundreds of times larger than the previous projection slowly appeared. Li Xiang could only see the opponent's ice claw. It was enough to cover the sky and cover the earth.
He thought of the time behemoth's sharp claws. These ancient existences not only had astonishing combat strength, but their bodies were also incomparably huge. Just this size alone was enough to cause despair in the seven continents.
The mountain-like ice claw came crashing down with a terrifying aura. It was as if it was going to crush the tiny figure beneath it.
However, the moment it approached Li Xiang, it was still a few hundred meters away. It could no longer be swung.
A black flame that was comparable to the Frozen Grain Monarch's tyrannical aura spun from his body. The crimson Eternal Purgatory slashed out a dazzling sword light, blocking the ice claw.
This flame came from the authority of the Origin of Darkness. It was purer than the black flame that Fei Yujing had absorbed. After being nourished by the dark golden Origin aura in his body, it had become incomparably powerful. Wrapped around the blade, it was as if even space and time could be annihilated.
The Frozen Grain Monarch let out a mournful roar. It recognized this flame and retracted its claws as if it had seen the world. Its ice and snow became extremely fragile under this black flame. Just like how it could restrain the giant spider's poison and spider silk, this black flame was extremely effective against its ice and snow abilities.
The ice layer melted piece by piece. The ice claw disappeared in an instant. Even the Frozen Grain Monarch that was hovering above the sea of stars rapidly swept up.
Li Xiang held the Eternal Purgatory tightly and turned into a streak of black flame. Leaving only an afterimage, he continued his pursuit.
After ascending to the deep space, Li Xiang finally saw the full appearance of this ancient ruler. Its body was similar to an ice bear, but it also had huge bone wings and a long tail. It was a bit like a giant dragon.
If it was fully unfolded, it would probably be more than ten thousand meters long. It was no wonder that its aura alone could turn the Ice Scar Castle into a world of ice and snow all year round.
Wherever it was, it was an extremely cold place.
Above the deep space was the starry space that was about to reach the end of the sky. No one could break through the starry space. There was once a Level-9 player who kept flying upwards, but in the end, he still couldn't reach the end of the starry space.
He said that above the starry space, there might be an existence similar to the Gate of Eternity.
The Gate of Eternity was at the end of the Eternal River. The Eternal River was at the edge of the sea of stars, and also the edge of this world.
He firmly believed that the world where all creatures lived was a cage. If there was a limit, it could be broken through. Outside was an even vaster real world!
Unfortunately, even this Level-9 player couldn't explore the end of the starry space.
For so many years, no one had been able to reach the edge of the starry space.
Li Xiang followed the Frozen Grain Monarch all the way up. The Eternal Purgatory flame in his hand suddenly lit up. It didn't dare to relax and continued to go up. Soon, the two of them left the deep space and arrived at the starry space.
As soon as he entered the starry space, Li Xiang could clearly feel his aura stagnate.
This place was much more dangerous than the world below. The air was thin, and everywhere was filled with void turbulence and natural phenomena. The slightest carelessness would cause one to be swept in, and who knew when they would come out again.
The starry space was also known as the Sky Forbidden Zone. Ordinary airships couldn't enter at all. Their materials weren't as sturdy as the bodies of high-level players.
Only a few world-class airships could fly to the border between the starry space and the deep space.
At this level, the Frozen Grain Monarch's Frost Domain suddenly disappeared.
The world was silent. Only the resplendent starry space and the dazzling crimson moon were left. It was extremely quiet.
Many powers couldn't be used here. Moreover, there were no Origin Form Particles or Magic Particles here. He could only rely on the power stored in his body to move around in the starry space. Once it was exhausted, he would fall.
Falling from the starry space, even if it was him, would be smashed to pieces.
Li Xiang looked at the Frozen Grain Monarch in front of him, who had also slowed down. It seemed that the calamities were the same. They didn't have any special privileges in this world and could only rely on their own power and supplies to move around. However, compared to the calamities, the endurance of humans was clearly much weaker.
Unfortunately, Li Xiang wasn't an ordinary human.
He relied on the two secret techniques of shadow and void. Not only did he not get pulled apart, he even shortened the distance between them. This scared the Frozen Grain Monarch into speeding up, feeling extremely unlucky.
It didn't turn into an anthropomorphic calamity, so it naturally couldn't think. It was instinctively resistant and afraid of Li Xiang, or rather, the black flames on his body.
If it weren't for the black flames, it would have turned around and started a fight. In the end, the one running away would probably be Li Xiang.
Li Xiang used his precise positioning ability to force the Frost Millet King out of the area where the Giant Spiders were located. Then, he avoided the Frost Millet King's path. He chased it all the way to Fei Yujing's Lightless Island before stopping.
The Frozen Grain Monarch felt the dissipating aura behind it and slowed down. It wasn't willing to turn around and face this terrifying black flame wielder. It slowly descended from the starry space and happened to see a lightless island. It was prepared to rest there for a while.
The corners of Li Xiang's mouth curled up slightly. Fei Yujing had already broken through to the monarch rank, and she wasn't inferior to the Frozen Grain Monarch in a one-on-one fight. She also had the black flames, which was enough to make this ruler suffer. It probably wouldn't come back to harass the giant spiders for a while.
As for him.
He slowly flew back, looking at the surrounding starry space and the scarlet moon, feeling a little emotional.
According to the records, the starry sea was the scene after the Milky Way Galaxy shattered. Those islands were the stars of the past, huge and boundless, bobbing up and down in the dark red starry sea.
Then what was the area beyond the starry space?
What did the crimson moon and the truly unreachable stars above his head represent? What did it symbolize?
Li Xiang was a little curious, but unfortunately, his strength didn't allow him to explore.
Slowly descending from the starry space, the snowstorm at the place where he was just now had gradually calmed down. Li Xiang returned to the ground, but only saw the empty spider web and no Xin Yi.
Just as he was about to release his origin aura to sense Xin Yi's location, the sound of a huge beast stomping on the ground suddenly came from the dark forest. Not long after, billowing black smoke spread out from the forest, and a petite figure ran quickly. Such a loud sound and such thick smoke was actually caused by her running!
Xin Yi covered her little head and ran like a naughty child who had poked a hornet's nest. When she saw Li Xiang, it was as if she had seen her savior. She quickly ran towards him.
Li Xiang was still smiling. He didn't know what this little ancestor had provoked that there was actually a monster that she was afraid of.
As the huge figure chasing behind her gradually appeared, the smile on Li Xiang's face finally slowly froze.
Just the black figure transmitted an aura that was even more terrifying than the Ice Grain Monarch. The feeling of the origin of darkness made people tremble. It was definitely an extremely strong dominator, even stronger than the Ice Grain Monarch!
He saw a pair of pure black wings spread out. It seemed like there was endless darkness inside, making people unable to look away. Soon, they would fall into it.
"This little scoundrel!" Li Xiang was angry and laughing at the same time. He hugged Xin Yi who was running towards him and then sped away without looking back.
That kind of existence wasn't something he could fight against right now!
