Chapter 1065: Against the Ice Queen

The thick layer of ice burst apart—giving rise to a cascading chain reaction that propagated through the entire white world.

Glaciers cracked and split open, sending huge chunks of ice flying into the air. Each chunk was so large as to crush a city, and the inhabitants of the white world had to face a disaster the likes of which they had never experienced.

Zhang Hanxiang barely kept her footing.

She and the Sun siblings repeatedly struck at the ice around them, smashing the chunks to powder before they were hit. Just then, from within the cracks, surrounded by an icy mist, a beam of frost shot toward them.

The gigantic beam covered up the sky and was surrounded by such intense cold that the increase in temperature due to the nine flaming moons Sun Mengmeng had summoned was completely nullified.

Sun Mengmeng and Sun Xiaowu's attacks were both sealed by the beam of frozen ice.

From within the icy mist, they could see a humongous figure. Sun Mengmeng, Sun Xiaowu, and Zhang Hanxiang all made identical expressions of shock and fear. "What is that?!"

The humongous figure was the size of a continent. Compared to it, the three hunters were smaller than ants. A thick layer of ice surrounded the figure's body. It had appeared from deep within the frozen layers of ice of the white world, a humongous figure of ice.

Sun Xiaowu cried out in shock, "Is this the ice queen's trump card?" Her combatant on the level of a superior king, which had been hibernating deep within the core of the world...

Sun Xiaowu said, "Sis, leave this monster to me! You handle the ice queen!"

Before Sun Mengmeng, Sun Xiaowu, and Zhang Hanxiang could completely recover from the shock of the situation, a sea of icy-cold water covered the skies, about to swamp them all.

Zhang Hanxiang seemed to notice something. "Look! Isn't there something inside?"

There was a huge dragon's figure within the icy-cold water.

"[Lunarflame Shot]!" Sun Mengmeng immediately struck. Fire-attuned genetic energy burst from Sun Mengmeng's body as her body erupted in flames. She pulled her greatbow taut.

Sun Mengmeng's right hand blurred as countless arrows of purple flame shot out of her bow like a meteor shower that tinted the air purple and restored the falling temperatures of the world.

The purple meteor shower and the sea of icy water clashed against each other, sending a continuous stream of steam into the air. The figure within the seawater keened.

"Haha, do you think you're the only one with reinforcements?"

The ice queen began to laugh. Her laughter transformed into aural waves, which merged with the howling blizzard and shot toward the trio of hunters.

"I too have companions!" The ice queen's laughter grew louder and louder as she launched a devastating attack.

"[Goldenscale Palm: Split]!" Golden radiance struck the land. Sun Xiaowu's palms brimmed with golden light as a dense layer of golden scales covered his skin. His aura suddenly shifted, and his right arm glowed with resplendent light.

Sun Xiaowu took a step forward, then punched with all his might, generating a dominating wave of genetic energy. The splintered land of ice cracked further, and shockwaves emanated all around him.

With just one punch, Sun Xiaowu blocked the ice queen's attack.

Meanwhile, Zhang Hanxiang held her palm up and channeled bitter cold. Cold air froze everything around her. A layer of frost covered the ground, and snow began to drift down from the heavens.

The ice and frost of the white world transformed into Zhang Hanxiang's weapons. With a palm strike, she froze the seawater, shattering it, and revealing a giant silvery-white dragon.

The dragon's scales were like crystals of ice, strikingly beautiful. It shot a torrent of icy-cold water at Zhang Hanxiang, who countered with repeated palm strikes. With the ice and frost of the white world, she invoked a bone-chilling cold that froze even the icy seawater.

Just as Zhang Hanxiang had proclaimed, her specialty was in transforming water-attuned energy into ice. The environment of the white world perfectly suited her, and her abilities were boosted tremendously.

Furthermore, Zhang Hanxiang herself had a special ability. She was subconsciously able to invoke the bitter cold that lay at the heart of the white world, a feat even she was unaware of.

Zhang Hanxiang leapt up into the sky, above the frozen seawater, as blades of ice condensed beneath her feet. She blurred as she skated forward like a professional.

The ice queen invoked the authority of the realm, sending two big glaciers smashing into the Sun siblings from either direction, hoping to squash them dead.

Before her eyes, however, black flames appeared in the heart of those condominium-like glaciers, melting them down into nothing more than water.

"[Baptism of Hellfire: Full Moon]!" Flames crept up all over Sun Mengmeng's body. She whirled her daggers around her as she rushed forward. The glaciers exploded as flames burst into the sky, releasing bouts of steam.

That steam propelled Sun Mengmeng forward, faster and faster.

The moon burst apart in an explosion of flame. Wreathed in fire, in her chitinous armor, she looked like a warrior who had just opened the gates to the underworld. Black flame surrounded her, scorching hot, making her look like a star that was falling to the ground.

"[Blinding Flash: Thousandfold Echo]!" Sun Xiaowu's body split into over a thousand clones, so many they seemed to fill the sky, all of whom charged toward the mountainous beast. Each was simultaneously real and illusory, forming an entire battalion of soldiers by himself. Each clone was simultaneously real and illusory.

The three hunters had each chosen their individual targets.

The fastest to attack was the skating Zhang Hanxiang. In rage, the crystal dragon smashed apart the frozen seawater with its claws. Zhang Hanxiang leapt up and struck, sending hundreds of icicles before her.

The icicles struck the crystal dragon's scales crisply, shattering into pieces against the dragon's scales.

The crystal dragon waved its tail in mid-air as Zhang Hanxina defended with a huge shield of ice. Daggers of ice shot out of her palms, cracking the dragon's scales. The crystal dragon opened its maw wide and shot out a torrent of icy-cold seawater.
