The body of the frost beast thudded heavily to the ground.
Another frost beast approached, spraying a mist of ice directly at Ye Zhongming.
He quickly dodged to the left, and the earth sand moon blade was once again swung out, piercing into the head of the frost beast. He twisted it, and the faceless head shattered.
Similarly, the body that had been floating in the air fell, crashing beside another slain companion.
Garan watched from behind, her eyes shining with excitement.
Is this the difference between a seven-star evolver and a five-star evolver?
While she had to flee when facing two frost beasts, he effortlessly killed them in seconds.
She glanced at the approaching waves of frost beasts in the distance and then looked at Ye Zhongming, who was examining his weapon. She suddenly felt a glimmer of hope for this mission.
This man might really be able to clear the way here!
Ye Zhongming realized that the earth sand moon blade was fine, understanding that the ice blades that could pierce the green battle armor posed no threat to his weapon, and he finally felt at ease.
He had previously been worried about the armor-piercing capability of these ice blades.
The two frost beasts had used two abilities, but because of Ye Zhongming's swift kills, they never got to use a third.
Having personally assessed the capabilities of these monsters, Ye Zhongming felt confident, signaling to Garan for them to move forward.
After walking a few steps, they encountered three more frost beasts head-on, with more rushing in from behind.
"Are you really going to just walk past them like this?" Garan, realizing her earlier admiration for Ye Zhongming had clouded her judgment, warned him.
Even though he had the ability to kill these frost beasts instantly, there were too many monsters ahead. How could they handle being surrounded?
Ye Zhongming seemed to disregard her concerns, whistling to the two ice birds in the air, and they immediately swooped down excitedly.
Previously the queen of the group, the female ice bird was noticeably larger than the male, and it was also faster. As soon as Ye Zhongming gave the command, it charged at one of the frost beasts, swooping past its head with a shriek, scattering shards of ice everywhere. The ice bird's sharp claws left deep gashes on the enemy's head.
The frost beast moved as if to look up at the sky, but at that moment, the second male ice bird darted in, its sharp beak diving into the beast's chest with lightning speed.
With a tremendous impact, a hole over thirty centimeters in diameter was pecked out.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye, leaving one frost beast severely injured.
However, the next second, what Garan had referred to as the third method occurred. The injured frost beast showed no intentions of counterattacking; instead, it turned and crashed into the nearest companion.
Like ice melting, it rapidly merged into the body of its fellow beast.
Under Ye Zhongming's watchful eye, the wounded frost beast's body swelled slightly, clearly thicker than its kind.
Indeed, a miraculous life form.
Seeing this scene, Ye Zhongming couldn't help but marvel in his heart. Whether it was merging or healing within another's body, it exceeded his imagination.
The two ice birds saw their opponent 'escape' and immediately flew into a rage. They let out loud cries and dove down like fighter jets, aligning side by side before simultaneously opening their mouths, each spraying a shot of light green liquid with ice points.
The liquid landed with a splat on the frost beast's body and face, and smoke began to rise from those two areas. With the increasing smoke, it visibly melted, and quickly, the monster could no longer hold on, collapsing to the ground and not even having the chance to retreat into its companion's body.
After falling, the poison from the ice birds finally began to lose its effectiveness. The frost beast's head was completely eroded, leaving behind a gaping hole in its chest.
"That's some potent poison!"
Garan shivered at the sight. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed these seemingly flawless ice birds contained such toxic liquid. If that were to spray on her, her blue battle armor probably wouldn't hold up.
