Chapter 173
Adam could only temporarily set aside the issue of the Dragon Slayer Organization. His current strength and influence were insufficient for him to come into contact with such a colossal organization. But no matter what, the existence of the Dragon Slayer Organization wasn't a bad thing. Even if they truly wished to exterminate every dragon in this plane, it wouldn't affect Adam at all. In fact, Adam might even add fuel to the fire. After all, the more chaotic this plane was, the more advantageous it would be for him.
On the eighth day of their journey, Adam saw the ocean through the clouds.
Canbi spoke. "My lord, we're almost there. I heard the Icefield is a colossal island connected to the continent. The Icefield of the Ocean isn't far away."
To Canbi, the journey of the past few days was definitely an unfriendly experience. Previously, he didn't expect Adam to drag him along as they flew above the clouds. Initially, he was still mentally revising the experiences and experiences he had witnessed during his previous excursion with the old patriarch, and was prepared to display it before his lordship. He was even hoping to encounter some ignorant magical beast, so that he could seize the opportunity to display his capabilities.
Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that a young dragon's flying speed could actually be so fast. The massive airflow from breaking through the air had penetrated the energy enveloping his body countless times. Right now, he felt his entire body turning stiff. Perhaps, he had already turned into an ice sprite.
Moreover, he hadn't eaten for six days.
"My lord, can we take a break? I... I can't hold on any longer." Canbi hesitated repeatedly, but still couldn't help begging. If he didn't eat something now, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hold on until the day he obtained strength.
Adam glanced at him and nonchalantly descended. It seemed that the energy of bloodline creatures was indeed greatly limited. The elemental energy they obtained was too rigid. Like a machine, they couldn't even perform the simplest of free transformations.
After landing, Canbi tossed a seed onto the ground. Then, under the influence of the plant energy, the seed rapidly germinated, blossomed, and bore fruit. Canbi impatiently plucked the fruit and carelessly stuffed it into his mouth. His entire sprite slumped on the ground in comfort. "I'm finally alive."
Adam's imagination ran wild. Such an ability was too wasteful. If he could cultivate a special seed with different abilities, it would certainly be very interesting.
Noticing Adam's gaze, Canbi abruptly recalled his current status. Like a wisp of smoke, he crawled up from the ground and apologetically said, "My apologies, my lord. I got carried away. I..." His complexion turned unsightly. "I feel terrible."
Adam activated the ice element in his body and maintained it outside his body. In just a short period of time, the surrounding energy had fluctuated more than ten times. Adam could feel that the environment here was very strange. The elemental aura was no longer gentle and lazy. It seemed that for some reason, it had become extremely unstable. The fluctuations were not normal energy tides, but seemed to disappear suddenly and then be replenished in an instant.
In this environment, it was like switching between a vacuum and an incomplete vacuum state at any time.
"What's going on?"
Adam tried to directly mobilize the free elements to use Evoking Magic, but even with his ability to control energy, the Evoked Ice Sword was still crooked.
"This degree of fluctuation is very abnormal. It shouldn't be like this even if it's near the boundary of a world."
The plane floated amidst the void. The stability of the crystal wall system negated the plane's ability to withstand the Void Ether Storm. According to common sense, even if the various energy indices of the plane were different in different locations, they should be uniform as a whole. However, the current situation had already exceeded the limits of self-correction.
Evidently, the crystal wall system was in a state of disturbance.
"Could it be..."
Adam suddenly had a thought. But in the blink of an eye, he sealed it away. That shouldn't be possible, right?
— — —
After a long period of time, the fluctuations of energy finally returned to normal. Unable to control his body, Canbi struggled to crawl up from the ground. With lingering fear in his heart, he inspected his body from left to right. Only when he found nothing abnormal, did he relax.
Seeing him stand up, Adam said, "If there's nothing else, let's go."
Canbi hurriedly nodded and consciously curled into a ball on the ground, waiting for Adam's draconic claw to pick him up.
"Fly at a low altitude. I feel the sky ahead is very dangerous."
Feeling pardoned, Canbi spontaneously replied, "My lord, I'll scout ahead."
Their speed had dropped significantly. Faced with such a bizarre situation, Adam didn't dare to act rashly. If his luck was truly bad and he got sucked into some bizarre spatial phenomenon, even if he still had a chance to connect to the 'Weave', he might not be able to preserve his life.
"No wonder no dragon chose to nest near the icy plains. The terrain is one aspect, but the unstable energy environment is the most important. I reckon no dragon can sleep well here." Adam pondered as he flew.
Two days later, Adam and Canbi finally arrived at their destination – the boundary icy plains.
"My lord, should we enter? Or wait for that thing to stop? "Canbi fearfully pointed towards the icy plains and inquired.
At present, a sky-covering blizzard was blowing across the icy plains. Every snowflake carried the aura of ice elemental energy. When they landed on the ground, they would explode like magic. It was simply a materialized ice elemental storm. Outside the icy plains, the winds and waves were calm and tranquil. Apart from the icy cold, there was no other sensation.
Adam directly stepped into the icy plains. No matter what, he was still a young frost wyrm. No matter how berserk the ice elemental energy was, it couldn't harm him.
Watching Adam enter, Canbi could only grit his teeth and follow. The plant energy was as weak as a candle in the wind, and could be blown away by the icy storm at any moment.
After the snowflakes and ice cubes landed on Adam's body, they automatically slid down his streamlined body. The energy contained within them recklessly gushed into his body, rampaging through Adam's draconic aura and draconic breath magic circuits.
Adam felt that if this continued, he might even lose his innate magic. He hastily extended his draconic aura to cover a dozen meters around him. This pseudo-domain innate talent was extremely effective. The ice elemental energy actually formed a circulation around his draconic aura, and not a single strand attempted to enter his body.
The storm came and went quickly. In merely thirty minutes, it had completely vanished. The entire world was clean as though nothing had happened.
"My lord, where are we heading to next?" After arriving at the icy plains, Canbi was completely unfamiliar with the roads. He could only ask Adam for help.
Adam didn't have a specific target. However, he was too close to the outside world and couldn't conceal himself. Building his nest required him to venture deeper. Just as he was about to continue flying, a layer of ice loosened not far from the draconic aura's range. "We seem to have intruded into someone else's territory."
