Chapter 1363: Powerful Ice Dragon

The ice dragon had been slumbering for an untold number of years. The dragons enjoyed sleeping by nature, and they hated being awakened from their deep sleep the most. Regular Saints wouldn't even be able to wake this dragon from his slumber. After all, he had deployed a protection barrier around himself before sleeping. However, Xiang Shaoyun's Nether Soul Dragon Headband had come alive and clashed against the old man. The appearance of a familiar aura had roused the ice dragon from his slumber.

As the ice dragon raised his head, a terrifying icy breath shot out of his mouth. The icy breath instantly caused the surrounding temperature to drop, threatening to freeze everything in the area. A dragon's breath was one of the most powerful innate abilities possessed by dragons.

The cultivators who hadn't retreated were frozen before they could react. One ice statue after another formed, each of them looking incredibly lifelike. All these were powerful cultivators, yet they couldn't survive even a single breath from this ice dragon. One could see just how terrifying this dragon was.

Only the old man could resist the breath. A terrifying attack shot out from his palm and shattered the approaching chunk of ice. The world of frost was also destroyed, freeing the frozen cultivators. Most of them suffered terrible frostbites, with some already frozen to death.

"What are you waiting for? Leave!" said the old man. He blocked before the dragon and said, "Ice dragon, do not push it. This might be your territory, but us humans are not to be underestimated. I hope you can stop murdering for no reason."

"Are you trying to teach me a lesson?" asked the ice dragon.

"I'm only telling the truth," replied the old man.

"You'll be the first to die, then," said the ice dragon. With a roar, he charged the old man.

Despite his large body, the dragon was extremely nimble and instantly arrived before the old man. He bit down. The old man felt a massive pressure from the ice dragon, and as he flicked his sleeve, a powerful chain manifested and whipped at the dragon's jaws.

The whip caused even space to collapse, leaving numerous spatial rifts in its wake. The ice dragon moved his head aside and avoided the attack. Then, his tongue shot out toward the old man while waves of frost energy rippled out of his mouth. The old man displayed the strength worthy of a God Realm expert. With a flicker, he avoided the attack before releasing several attacks, forcing the dragon to retreat.

The old man was extremely powerful. Each attack of his caused a massive shockwave. However, his attacks failed to damage the ice dragon. When the old man saw that his attacks weren't effective, his face turned even more solemn.

"These attacks aren't even enough to scratch my itch," said the ice dragon as powerful frost energy burst out of his body. The surrounding temperature further dropped while the entire area became covered in ice. Next, the ice dragon clawed at the old man.

The frost energy caused even the old man's body to become stiff. Only now did the man realize that the ice dragon was probably stronger than him. He started attacking the ice dragon with all his strength. He even took out his god-grade weapon, aiming to force the dragon away.

However, the ice dragon was too strong. The old man was strong enough to pierce a hole in the sky, while the ice dragon was strong enough to freeze the world. Even the old man was greatly affected by the frost, causing his movements to become much slower than before. Even in such a difficult situation, he still needed to ensure Xiang Shaoyun's safety.

The ice dragon's patience was running thin. He roared furiously, blasting the old man away with a sound attack. The old man coughed up a copious amount of blood and could no longer hold on to Xiang Shaoyun, causing Xiang Shaoyun to be thrown aside.

At this point, the surrounding onlookers had all fled. They all knew that if they remained, none of them would survive. The ice dragon pressed on and whipped his tail at the old man, nearly whipping the old man into mincemeat. The old man was greatly terrified at the realization that this ice dragon was far stronger than him.

"Ice dragon, don't push it!" said the old man as he rolled aside to avoid yet another attack, cutting a sorry figure.

"Weren't you very cocky earlier? Weren't you about to teach me a lesson with some other humans? I'm going to tear your old body apart!" said the ice dragon domineeringly.

This time, the old man no longer dared to stay. He hurriedly tore an opening in the air and attempted to flee, but he hesitated when he thought of Xiang Shaoyun. After all, Xiang Shaoyun's body carried a lot of secrets. He did not want to miss out on such a treasure trove.

He had barely turned around when the dragon's tail swept over and sent him flying far away and coughing up blood. At this point, the old man finally decided to leave. He was afraid that he would end up as the dragon's food if he stayed even a second longer here.

"What a hateful dragon! I must gather some people and host a dragon slaying expedition!" muttered the old man furiously.

The ice dragon wanted to give chase, but he eventually gave up. This mountain was his territory. He wouldn't be as strong if he left its territory. He was also afraid that more human experts would appear before it. After all, he was an experienced and shrewd dragon and wouldn't do anything stupid.

However, he was still extremely unhappy that only a few humans had been killed this time. Most had already escaped while he was fighting the old man. Just as the ice dragon was about to return inside the Heavenly Snow Mountain, he looked in a certain direction. A certain person was flying in his direction.

"Even with a crippled body, he's still alive and has such a tenacious life force. He will be the perfect kind of food for me," said the ice dragon as he looked at the young man flying toward him.

Just as he was about to swallow the young man, a figure flew out of the young man's body. Next, an alarming dragon's roar rang out. The roar did not pose much threat to the dragon, but it gave the dragon a sense of familiarity. That figure was none other than Money, who had finally left Xiang Shaoyun's astral cosmos sea.

"I greet the esteemed lord dragon," said Money respectfully.

Money was a mixed breed with the blood of the celestial horned dragonsnakes and the dragons flowing in his veins. Thus, it was in his very nature to show respect before this ice dragon.

"A little fellow with my race's bloodline?" muttered the ice dragon as he studied Money. He shouted, "Are you going to protect that crippled kid? Do you want to be eaten by me as well?"
