Chapter 2868 Sea Serpent
“Understood, Mr. Chance.” The Three Bandits nodded.
Jared followed the girl toward the place where the ice soul fragment lay.
“Where are you from? Why are you concealing your cultivation level? What are you doing in thisbitterly cold northern land?”
The girl bombarded Jared with all kinds of questions along the way, but he didn't utter a word inresponse.
No matter how much she asked, he simply wouldn't answer.
After all, he wasn't familiar with that girl, so Jared didn't feel the need to reveal his identity to her.
Realizing his refusal to speak, the girl zipped her mouth.
Soon, they arrived at a hill covered with snow.
“It's just up ahead. You can even see it from here,” the girl said while pointing forward.
Jared shifted his gaze, following the direction she pointed at, and saw there was indeed a spotdifferent from the snowy surroundings. Upon closer examination, he noticed a fragment shimmeringwith white light and surrounded by mist.
A large amount of spiritual energy swirled around the fragment, forming a spiritual energy vortex.novelbin
Jared glanced around, not seeing anything in sight or the so-called demon beast guardian, so hesaid to the girl, “In this case, can't we just go over there?”
The girl shook her head. “No, we can't. An ice snake lurks around here. If we casually approach,we'll surely be attacked.”
“Wait for me here, then. I'll go retrieve it.” Jared told the girl to wait as he headed toward the ice soulfragment.
However, after he took two steps forward, the ground shook. Immediately afterward, a giant whitesnake covered in white scales burst out from the icy surface. It hissed and emanated a chilling aura.
Two short horns protruded from the giant snake's head. Evidently, it wasn't an ordinary snake but asea serpent!
Hiss...
The sea serpent kept hissing at Jared, seemingly stopping him from getting closer to the ice soulfragment.
Jared glanced at the sea serpent. Realizing it had a cultivation level of Fifth Level Body FusionRealm, which was similar to the ice bear earlier, he was unfazed.
“I'll fight and distract this sea serpent. You go get the ice soul fragment,” Jared said to the girl.
“Aren't you afraid I'll run away with the ice soul fragment?” the girl asked Jared in astonishment.
“I'm not because I've done away with anyone who dared take me as a fool. So, if you have the gutsto trick me, you'll die too,” Jared replied nonchalantly, his words sending chills down the girl's spine.
Before she could speak, he leaped up, holding Dragonslayer Sword in his hand, launching himselfat the sea serpent.
Sensing Jared's incoming attack, the sea serpent raised its body and opened its bloody maw.
Just as Jared got close, it spewed out a white mist, which was a condensation of cold aura. It wasfrosty and capable of freezing anything.
The white mist even froze the air, causing the entire space to distort.
As Jared's body fell into the white mist, he was instantly frozen in midair like an ice sculpture.
The girl was stunned by that scene, never expecting Jared to be defeated so effortlessly and frozensolid by the sea serpent.
The sea serpent hissed and charged at Jared, intending to swallow him whole.
The girl wanted to save Jared but was powerless to help and could only watch as he was about tobe consumed by the sea serpent.
However, just as the sea serpent reached Jared, who was frozen into a block of ice, a red glowflickered in his chest. Immediately afterward, a scorching flame ignited, instantly melting the ice.
Jared swung his Dragonslayer Sword at the sea serpent. The razor-sharp light from the swordstruck the sea serpent's body, slashing it and leaving a wound. Blood gushed out continuously fromthe laceration, staining the snowy ground red.
