Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Chapter 434: Ice Age

Rain began to ski around the area once more, trying to find the chance to attack the back of the ice dragon… the creature began to use its ice breath while also making ice spikes emerge from the ground.

Sometimes, that combination almost bit Rain, but he would jump and then spin in the air and avoid them completely… after failing that kind of combination a few more times, the ice dragon grew weary of Rain's tactics.

The ice dragon used the ice beam in the area again, and before long, Rain was able to see the ice in the area expanding upward… the monster wanted to seal him in a cage.

"I am flattered, but no, thank you," Rain said and then used Impulse.

Rain couldn't let himself be separated from the outside world, and he had to keep an eye on Terra as well, after all. He had no idea what he would do if something were to happen to the person who was supporting him in that crazy battle…

Rain punched the dragon again, but the beast was expecting that and blocked the attack with its left claw again… the body of the monster trembled, and that stopped the ice beam for a moment, but only for a moment.

"If you are planning to ignore me, then…" Rain said and then used Impulse to the side.

The ice Dragon looked to the side and then didn't even see Rain stopping. The creature saw the part of the ground cracking, but only that… and then pain. A powerful blow hit the side of the Monster's face and pushed it to the side. In the next moment, another blow from the side came and pushed the head of the monster in the opposite direction.

At that point in time, the beast was completely stunned by Rain's speed, and even when it raised its paws to block the attack, it didn't change a single thing. Rain kept sending the head of the monster from one side to the other.

Unfortunately… Rain was forced to stop a lot sooner than he had expected… his giant earth gloves had frozen, and they were cracking since that ice wasn't created by him.

"My fingers are already numb to the cold… what an annoying aura," Rain thought when he jumped away from the enemy.

Rain still could change the earth gloves, but that could only be done so many times, and he wondered if that was the best option. He was never forced to change them in a single battle, after all.

While Rain was surprised by that outcome… the dragon emitted an even more intense wave of rage. The dragons in the distance actually decided to turn tail and flee… Rain frowned when he saw that… they were five kilometers away, and they weren't safe at that distance.

Soon Rain would learn why they felt that way… the ice dragon began to fly upward… the monster was pissed since blood was leaving its mouth. Dragons sure were prideful… the creature probably didn't lose even five percent of its total health, and the creature truly believed that Rain didn't have the right to even do that much.

When the monster was high in the sky, it began to use its ice beam upward, and the cold began to change the clouds in the sky…. That part of the country usually was quite warm, but eventually began to get cold… very cold.

Snowflakes began to fall on the ground, and when they touched it, they froze everything in a ten-meter radius and made flowers made of ice spikes emerge in the spot they touched.

The spell reached the city and even the battlefield on the other side… people began to panic as magic people and humans began to get touched by those and immediately become ice statues. Humans began to run away to their barrier while the magic people began to do their best to push away the snowflakes…

"I guess we can call this spell… Ice Age," Rain thought. "It is powerful to the point that I am feeling like my balls are freezing."

An area of dozens of kilometers began to get covered in a real thick layer of ice, and people were forced to take shelter in their homes… maybe that dragon wasn't only three hundred years old… Considering what Rain learned, if a single dragon that wasn't the strongest of their species could stop two armies that together numbered one hundred thousand like that… What could their dragon god do?

Destroy the world by itself?

"Things are getting too big in scale…" Rain thought.

That was a thought for later… Right now, Rain had to make sure that he wouldn't freeze to death. When he used Magic Barrier, he was able to fight the cold, but he was losing fifty points of mana per second… that was too much for a single defensive spell that could only make him defend.

"Humm… I guess there is no other choice," Rain thought while looking upward. "Even if it is my weakest magic, it should offer some defense and attack power."

Rain began to focus and then covered his entire body with an armor made of earth. Only a small part of his face wasn't being covered… but he didn't stop that. Using his fire magic, Rain made his armor burn… the brown armor eventually became red and black, thanks to the flames and smoke. That wasn't good for Rain's lungs, so he couldn't use that for long.

With all his might, Rain jumped toward the dragon, who was still using Ice Age. It seemed like it wasn't a poor, sweet child of summer… the monster eventually noticed Rain's approach and frowned while seeing him in his new form… he was faster than before, and his aura was stronger as well.

Considering the nature of his armor, he was going to become a much better challenge, and the dragon braced itself for the confrontation.
