Chapter 2642 Into The Fray

"Fail? Do you really think that it"s that easy?"

Suddenly, Garoe Rynn narrowed his brows at Davis"s languid comment.

Everyone was startled before they swiveled their heads in their direction, wondering if the two of them also had some feud.

However, Davis simply shook his head and eyed the sealed ice structure, "Look closely."

Hearing his words, everyone turned to look at the ice structure again. It was stuck to the icy wall and seemed to be eternally embedded for a long time. They knew the Unfettered Behemoth Ice Fiend"s heart was sealed inside and in the small crevice formed over the sealed ice structure existed an Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend shaking one of its six arms, seemingly trying to come out.

Many wondered what was wrong with it when suddenly, Garoe Rynn"s eyes widened.

"Wait… it"s only shaking its arm and not coming out. Is it actually stuck in the ice?"

Davis shrugged his shoulders, "Perhaps, it can only come out after it splits into many Unfettered Ice Fiends or sacrifices itself into an Ice Essence Orb. I don"t know."

"Well, if it"s stuck, we couldn"t ask for more." Garoe Rynn couldn"t help but grin.

He had no idea how they were going to battle in the previous situation, but now, he was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with confidence.

A bit of color also finally returned to the true disciples. If that Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend actually descended from the sealed ice, then they would truly be slaughtered in an instant.

"Even then, this battle isn"t going to be any easier. I suggest everyone who lacks a battle prowess above six levels leave."

Davis warned as he took a step forward, leaping into the dome-like cave with utter calm. A strand of pitch-black energy surged out of his palm as it shaped itself into a scythe with a rod as long as him and a blade that was sharp and more than half the rod"s size stretching across like a curved blade.

Instantly, everyone couldn"t help but feel an ominous pressure cras.h.i.+ng down on them, making them feel a cold chill.

They were absolutely dumbfounded to sense his prowess that had stabilized at Level Three Immortal King Stage. They scrutinized his cultivation base again and again, but no matter how many times they tried, they saw his cultivation base was only at Level Seven Immortal Stage in Soul Forging Cultivation, while the other cultivation didn"t seem to be higher than that.

Still, that was an increase in nine levels of prowess, causing their hearts to churn with shock and dread!

Even Nyx G.o.dwin and Garoe Rynn"s eyes went wide, realizing that he had gone far and above what they could cross at the same cultivation base. After all, they could only cross eight levels! As they looked at his purple-robed back, their eyes squinted into one of wariness as they absolutely recognized him to be a mountain that was difficult to climb and ascend.ƒ?????????el.???

*Bzzz!~*

Many more auras undulated with a high prowess as they stretched into the Unfettered Ice Fiend"s hive, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with a provocative aura as they entered.

On this battlefield, none of the true disciples left, not because they were brave, but because the contribution points lurking in this location were hard to miss. As long as they could secure a single corpse of an Unfettered Ice Fiend that"s at Level Four Immortal Stage, they were promised fifty thousand contribution points.

That was fifty thousand Mid-Level Immortal Crystals, five months" worth of their wages.

How could they bare to leave when wealth was walking in front of them?

Nonetheless, none of them headed too far, waiting for the Unfettered Ice Fiends to fall for their provocation. They released their undulations at full throttle, causing their auras to reverberate as they crashed into the Unfettered Ice Fiends, making them roar.

"Wargghh!!!"

Their screams rumbled and caused the icy hive to shudder, but they didn"t move from their area as though maintaining a defensive line.

"Found you."

Davis"s eyes flickered with a strange gleam before he whispered slightly. He no longer stayed in one place in the air and rushed towards the Unfettered Ice Fiends. Just as he arrived above them, numerous creaking voices cackled out with wickedness as the Unfettered Ice Fiends jumped high into the air, intending to welcome him with their six bare arms and six icy spears in their hands.

However, Davis abruptly twisted directions and crashed into the ground, and swung his scythe around, instantly severing ten heads in an instant. The death energy stuck to their severed necks burst and corrupted their cores, leaving them incapacitated.

Quickly, Davis moved, rus.h.i.+ng towards the epicenter as he cut down more Unfettered Ice Fiends with a simple swing of his scythe.

He seemed to be heading in a direction as though he had caught onto something. No matter if a giant claw enclosed on him or a giant spear appeared to stab him, he s.h.i.+fted like a ghost and reaped their heads with utter calm.

The sheer sight of it left their eyes to go wide, not knowing they were witnessing the greatness of the Hateless Ghost Emperor Steps of the Ghost Tear Hall, mainly because it was ultimately concealed by death energy when it was basically used with darkness energy. They might"ve recognized it if it was the latter, but for the former, they couldn"t tell, nor could they tell that the Hateless Ghost Emperor Steps was originally catered for death energy.

*Clang!~*

But when faced with a Level Four Immortal King Stage Unfettered Ice Fiend, the death energy scythe chipped ever so lightly as it met with their icy spears.

Davis frowned. As expected, his cultivation base was too low to easily kill one of them in a battle. He had to use some skill, but he felt that it would be better if he avoided them first, causing him to use his movement technique as he unentangled himself from their blockade.

When he reappeared, a few dozen heads fell off as he slaughtered Level Three Immortal King Stage Unfettered Ice Fiends.

The Hateless Ghost Emperor Steps proved to be extremely useful that Davis momentarily felt that it was a shame and that he should"ve got the higher versions of it. He would"ve been practically invisible and invincible on this battlefield if he had done so.

Seeing him, Nyx G.o.dwin and Garoe Rynn also jumped into the fray, wreaking havoc with their abilities. The latter used his azure-golden swords to pierce through heads like he was targetting watermelons with arrows, causing blood to burst apart from their heads while the former rattled the s.p.a.ce.

Violent purple light emerged as they encased the Unfettered Ice Fiends, causing them to explode, but this time, as though heeding a knowledgeable woman"s warning, he left at least half of their bodies intact with his Destruction Laws.

Although it took more effort on his part, it seemed like he was willing to take it due to the immense number of contribution points on the line.

"Wait… is he crazy!? Even that prowess isn"t enough to engage so many of them in close-quarters combat!? His cultivation base is too low. Stop him!"

Mystic Diviner panicked as she looked at Davis. She headed toward Myria, who stayed and pointed toward him.

Myria turned to look at Mystic Diviner Hailac before returning her gaze back to the battlefield. Like her, most of them chose to remain at the narrow entrance. Only the top five entered and started wreaking havoc on the battlefield. At this moment, Rea Tyriel and Black Tyriel truly and literally shone at this moment.

In truth, they shone brighter than Davis and the others as their combined their powers and attacked, displaying an extraordinary prowess that reached eight levels higher. It seems that they were truly compatible with each other"s energies it was no wonder their powers chose to make an arranged marriage for them under certain conditions.

"Aren"t you leaving?" Seeing that Mystic Diviner Hailac was still looking at her pleadingly, Myria couldn"t help but ask.

Mystic Diviner Hailac blinked. Leave? She shook her head.

"I"ll be the rearguard. If I could save some people with my karmic attack, perhaps-"

"Stop that. If you unleash such a technique, the Unfettered Ice Fiends might focus all their gazes on you instead."

"Aha~ I guess I was being greedy." Mystic Diviner Hailac"s expression became slightly awkward, but her empty eyes shone with determination.

"But, I have a personal grudge against these creatures for almost killing me. If I don"t teach them a lesson, then that would wound my law heart. It"ll attract them to lower the burden on him- Oh no- he"s being besieged by a group of Level Four"s!"

Mystic Diviner Hailac shuddered as she hurriedly clasped her hands, making hand signs. However, a furious voice resounded in the hive, momentarily changing the color of heaven and earth.

"Heaven Cleaving Abyss!"

Abruptly, a horizontal wave of death energy silently cut past many bodies of the Unfettered Ice Fiends, leaving behind a few hundred carca.s.ses of the Unfettered Ice Fiends. Even the Level Four Immortal King Stage Unfettered Ice Fiends had half of their arms cut, their icy spears broken.

In just a moment, Davis disappeared from their blockade again, reappearing elsewhere as he slaughtered his way through again.

"See?" Myria pursed her lips, "He rarely needs help."

"…" Mystic Diviner Hailac could only blink at this scene.

How come he was surviving through the gates of the underworld despite not having enough prowess?

Even Nyx G.o.dwin and Garoe Rynn were still at the edge, but the Emperor of Death had practically entered into the jaws of their hive, grinding his way through like a madman. The very sight of it was beyond her comprehension, causing her heart to flutter.
