The Blood Tabi on Mo Fan’s feet instantly strengthened his legs. He directly charged at the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast as the Black Snake Armor appeared.

Under the current conditions, Mo Fan’s speed was rather impressive. He was basically a blur. He made his way to the building across the street within an instant once he reached the shadows.

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was rising from the ground. Its body was still burning from the residue of the flames, but its thick scales were able to ignore the damage. The creature was only infuriated when it felt the scorching heat on its scales.

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast uttered a roar when it saw the bold human charging at him. It started swinging its four spiked arms wildly, each with a force strong enough to break the ice and produce a huge spray of water!

A huge mist lingered in the air. Mo Fan proceeded forward despite the reduced visibility. He jumped to the debris of a building holding a few Shadow Spikes between his fingers…

He split into two shadows when he saw the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s arm waving in his direction, and vanished into thin air.

Mo Fan slowly reappeared under the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s enormous shadow. The furious Mo Fan leapt onto the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s back with a kick. The Giant Shadow Spikes between his fingers split into six in total before stabbing at the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s joints between its arms and body.

A single Giant Shadow Spike could impair the movement of a Warrior-level creature if it landed accurately, yet when fighting against a Commander-level creature, the Giant Shadow Spikes could at most restrict the movement of a few body parts.

Mo Fan was targeting the creature’s lethal arms. The spikes on them simply posed too great a threat when the creature was swinging them wildly.

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast noticed someone on its back. It instinctively tried to pull Mo Fan down, yet its arms were hindered by the black energy. Its upper limbs suddenly felt incredibly heavy. It could no longer lift its arms!

“Ice Lock!” Mu Ningxue did not just stand there and watch. She immediately unleashed a frosty aura when she saw Mo Fan engaging the creature so courageously.

The ice chains produced in an Ice Domain were a lot stronger than the usual ice chains. One crystalline ice chain after another appeared under Mu Ningxue’s control before flying at the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast.

The ice chains moved like icy ribbons, aiming for the six sharp-toed legs of the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast. The creature’s legs were incredibly sharp and agile. Not only could the creature stab its target with its legs, it could also slice the target from any angle, especially with the two front limbs. They were basically a pair of sharp blades!

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was shockingly flexible with its legs. It managed to curl them up, trying to stab Mo Fan on its back, even though he was in a blind spot.

Mu Ningxue saw the creature’s intentions and immediately reacted. The ice chains lunged forward and wrapped around the creature’s lower limbs.

It did not matter if a single ice chain was broken, as there were around eight of them in total. It would take the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast some time to break them all!

“Eat this!” Mo Fan threw a Meteorite Fist at the creature’s waist at extremely close distance, breaking the thick scales protecting the creature. He even heard the sound of bones cracking.

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s waist had clearly sunken in. The chains tying its legs prevented it from stabilizing itself. It slammed hard into the ice and debris!

The sharp limbs of the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast granted it an overwhelming offense, yet it also meant that the creature’s body was not as sturdy as other Commander-level creatures. If it tried to stand up, its limbs might snap in half!

The flames spread rapidly on the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast’s back. Mo Fan did not greedily follow up with another attack. He knew being patient was crucial when fighting against a deadly creature. He immediately jumped to the shadows nearby and relocated himself…

A sharp leg suddenly twisted and swept in Mo Fan’s direction without any warning!

Mo Fan was shocked too. The sharp tip of the leg barely missed his chest!

He was currently hiding in a shadow, so it was fairly difficult for the creature to land its attack. Luckily, he did not lose his calm after landing his first attack. Otherwise, even if the counterattack from the beast did not slice him in half, it would still have knocked him flying dozens of meters away…

The creature’s sharp leg swept past and produced a metallic screech as it scratched the Black Snake Armor. Mo Fan immediately quickly backed off in the shadow, increasing the distance between him and the creature.

Lowering his head, Mo Fan saw a clear scratch on his Black Snake Armor. The fact that a random scratch was enough to leave a mark on his high-tier armor clearly implied how powerful the creature’s attack was!

“This shrimp-like monster with sharp legs can even twist them in the opposite direction. Such a weirdo!”

Most Commander-level creatures had evolved to a stage where they were incredibly strong and difficult to kill. Mo Fan had landed a series of attacks on the Blue Valley Ferocious Beast and slammed it to the ground with a strong blast, yet it had failed to inflict any serious damage to it!

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was perfectly unharmed apart from a few pieces of broken scales on its waist.

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast rose to its feet once again. It stuck its sharp legs into the thick ice, while its remaining pair of eyes emitted an eerie red glow!

“It’s casting a spell!” blurted out Hirose.

The spells of sea creatures did not necessarily have to be of the Water Element. Since they had a variety of species and most of the sea monsters were mixed-bloods, it was impossible to tell what spells they could cast despite their identical looks. The sea monsters would inherit the spells from both their parents, yet their appearance would only resemble one of them!

The Blue Valley Ferocious Beast was a mixed-blood, without a doubt. Its eyes had a red glow while its body was emitting a dark glow. Its sharp white legs were suddenly dyed crimson red…

The creature lifted its leg before swiping the air. The swing launched a sharp, red flicker of light, slashing forward at lightning speed!

The ice was cut in half. The debris was sliced apart. The red flicker was so fast that it was impossible for a human to react.

Mo Fan was staring blankly at the slash.

He suddenly felt his chest burning, as if his body was being sliced in half even with the Black Snake Armor protecting him…

Mo Fan skidded across the ice. A huge red line was visible on the Black Snake Armor, from which blood was pouring out. The mark of the slash was visible among the combination of ice powder and water vapor close to Mo Fan.

The slash had penetrated the Black Snake Armor despite its outstanding defense. Mo Fan clenched his teeth as he felt the burning pain from his chest and stomach!
