Monster Hunter: This Fire Dragon has characteristics

Chapter 529 The Battle of the Arch-Tempered Ice Dragon

Luo Yun, carrying a stream of light, flew over forests, crossed oceans, and arrived at that land of ice and snow.

The sudden drop in air temperature could not penetrate Luo Yun's crystal film, and the unique scenery of the ice field, completely different from the New World, did not attract Luo Yun at all.

From the sky, the ice field is very, very large. Although it cannot compare to the New World, it is still much larger than any single region of the New World.

However, the habitat of creatures in the ice field is very limited, and even many ice-attribute monsters cannot survive in the depths of the ice field, resulting in an extreme scarcity of resources.

In such a harsh environment, the creatures that can survive must be extraordinary monsters!

Take, for example, the Frostfang Barioth, which can go toe-to-toe with the Velkhana!

As a special individual of the Barioth, it does not belong to a subspecies, but is a powerful individual that survived the harsh environment and various survival tests in the depths of the cruel ice field.

Monsters in the New World don't deliberately train themselves. This is partly because they need to conserve their stamina to deal with potential battles while gathering food, and partly because they might be attacked when they're exhausted after training. It's also because the pressure to obtain food in the New World is much lower.

Monsters like the Frostfang Barioth need to squeeze every last bit of their energy out of the limited food available deep in the icy plains to survive. Under such high pressure, it's quite normal for creatures capable of breaking through individual limits and going toe-to-toe with Elder Dragons to emerge.

However, with important matters to attend to, Luo Yun did not intend to venture deep into the ice field to see just how extraordinary the creatures that could survive there were.

Standing above the icy plains, Luo Yun once again extended his senses, carefully tracing the correct path through the intricate, low-flowing earth vein energy. Finally, based on the direction of the earth vein's flow, he located the isolated island of origin suspended overseas.

Luo Yun's IQ may not have improved much, but his ability to analyze and process information has increased along with the changes in his physical condition.

Soon, amidst the tangled web of ley lines, Luo Yun accurately identified the main path of the ley lines.

Following this main road, Luo Yun flew swiftly.

On a desolate island that resembles a Buddhist lotus throne.

Two ice dragons of different sizes were flying high in the sky, constantly sensing the movements below from the center of the island.

On the barren ground, a sheep covered in silvery-gray metallic thorns was tapping and striking here and there, trying to find an entrance to the hole below.

Unlike before, the three ancient dragons were now unleashing their full power, openly challenging the island's master.

However, the Earth Dragon has been buried deep underground for many years, sleeping at the end of the ley line, and has not come out for tens of thousands of years. Even if there was such a cave on this island, it would probably have been sealed off long ago after such a long period of time. How could the Nergigante have found it?

However, even though they can't go down, they can let the other side come up!

If it were a sleeping Earth Crying Dragon, it would naturally not react in any way.

At this moment, He had awakened, His mindset completely changed, and He now saw Him as the Creator. Completely consumed by divinity, He could not tolerate these 'mortals' provoking Him. Accompanied by violent tremors, large swaths of land at the central lotus platform of the isolated island began to collapse rapidly.

With a sudden, earth-shaking tremor, the entire lotus platform sank completely. One by one, the rocks crushed by the tremors turned into quicksand vortexes, which began to devour all the creatures standing on them.

It is 30 meters long, and its wings, which have degenerated into mere skeletons, are wrapped in a huge amount of compressed rocks. It is like two giant arms that have broken through the base and pulled the body, which is not visible and looks like a small mountain of stones, out of the ground.

A truly magnificent existence!
The heavens and earth resound with the cry of the dragon!
Awakening once again after tens of thousands of years, it stands tall on this land!
As the Earth Dragon moved, the ley lines resonated with it and trembled.

A large section of glacier collapsed, burying countless penguins beneath it. Darren, who was enjoying the hot springs at the Moonlit Gathering Hall to relieve the fatigue of several days of fieldwork, slipped and almost fell into the hot spring.

In the New World, magma overflows from the underground caves of the Anthill Wasteland, deep canyons split open in the Ancient Forest, large sections of fragile platforms on the Coral Highlands collapse, and volcanoes erupt high in the Elder's Recess.

All these exaggerated anomalies seemed to be demonstrating to all the creatures of the New World that this 'god' had been reborn!

Within the Valley of Miasma, the Radiant Dragon roared!
He had just finished managing the tributaries of the earth's veins!

It's been ruined again by that damned demolition expert!!
Unfortunately, if the Valley of Miasma wasn't so important, and if other areas weren't destroyed but this place couldn't be destroyed, and if Kulve Taroth didn't need to stay here to manage the ley lines and couldn't leave, it would definitely have drifted all the way to the island of origin along the ley line corridor and given the Earth Crying Dragon a big slap in the face!
Arch-Tempered Velkhana was the first to react, rapidly activating the supercooling within its body, causing snowflakes to begin falling from the sky due to the extreme cold.

This is a sign that Arch-Tempered Velkhana is about to launch an attack; it is a display of His power!

All creatures that dare to offend Him will fall into a deep sleep amidst the swirling snowflakes!
Although it's unclear why the Earth-Crying Dragon's appearance differs from what He had seen from afar years ago, its exaggerated aura is undeniable.

A burst of extremely cold breath erupted, causing large amounts of ice crystals to fall and create craters in the ground.

Faced with the attack of Arch-Tempered Velkhana, it was unclear whether the Garuda was out of its mind from sleeping too long or because it was inconvenient to move around in its current state.

He neither dodged nor avoided, letting the other's breath fall on him.

Ice walls formed on the wings and back of the Earth Dragon, and large swathes of rock crumbled in the absolute low temperature.

Even if it had successfully transformed into the World Annihilation Dragon, it would have had to quickly dodge this attack. Otherwise, the aftershocks alone would have been enough to make it pay a price to get rid of the negative effects of the extreme cold.

Perhaps, the Arch-Tempered Elder Dragons are the ultimate characteristic of life energy in the New World.

Aside from failing to break through its ecological niche, the Arch-Tempered Velkhana's attack was no less powerful than that of an ordinary Elder Dragon that had been unlocked. This performance, which far surpassed that of an Arch-Tempered Elder Dragon, was merely a side effect of breaking through its lifespan limit.

but!
Despite the ferocity of the attack, the Earth Crying Dragon, whose back was frozen solid by ice, could only clumsily flap its wings.

Accompanied by exaggerated high-frequency shockwaves, the ice frozen on the rocks shattered instantly, while He moved with difficulty and slowness as if nothing had happened, crashing into the other sheep.
