59 Contracting The Ice Spirit
In the glass cage, the Ice Spirit that had been snatched away earlier was fluttering its four little wings in loneliness.
Suddenly, it sensed a familiar aura. It seemed to have smelled this aura somewhere before.
The Ice Spirit raised its head in confusion and saw Aloy’s anxious face.
“Sign a contract with me.” Aloy extended her hand to the Ice Spirit without hesitation. Her determination instantly mesmerized the Ice Spirit, and it nodded its head.
A small four-winged Snow Leopard appeared in Aloy’s mind. The Ice Spirit glanced at Aloy and immediately merged with her consciousness.
The contract was a success!
…
“Hahaha! Shen Fei, how are you feeling now? Even if you want to admit defeat now, I’m still going to kill that Flame Owl before I let you go!”
“In your dreams.” Shen Fei coldly glanced at Ice Ghost.
The Flame Owl was still flying in the air with great energy, spitting out blazing fire in all directions. Meanwhile, the Ice Ghost would occasionally fall into a dispirited state. However, the moment the Ice Ghost entered a dispirited state, the surrounding equipment would immediately spit out cold air, energizing the Ice Ghost to its best state.
If it were not for this equipment, the Flame Owl would have taken down the Ice Ghost long ago. Instead, the match was dragged out like this.
Still, the Flame Owl managed to destroy two of the cold-emitting devices. If the remaining two were destroyed as well, the Ice Ghost would have no way out!
“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl let out a shrill cry as it suddenly charged toward the ice pillar at the side.
“Heh, do you think I’ll let you have your way so easily?” Zhang Youcheng proudly looked at Shen Fei, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smirk. “Ice Ghost, block its attack!”
The next moment, the Ice Ghost instantly picked up two icicles and threw them at the Flame Owl without any hesitation.
Seeing the incoming icicles, the Flame Owl quickly adjusted its posture and lowered its body, narrowly avoiding the first icicle. The Flame Owl flipped to the left again and slid past the second icicle.
With the constant supply of cold air, the Ice Ghost tirelessly picked up icicles on the ground and shot them at the Flame Owl.
“Coo!” The Flame Owl dodged nimbly, and the ice pillar shot by the Ice Ghost instantly formed a golden-red protective barrier.
The Flame Owl, protected by the barrier, suddenly charged towards the ice pillar!
The moment the huge amount of heat came into contact with the mechanical device, the entire device turned into a pool of molten iron that slowly flowed to the ground.
“Well done, Flame Owl!” Shen Fei excitedly looked at the last remaining ice pillar.
As long as he could burn that thing, defeating the Ice Ghost would only be a matter of time. Zhang Youcheng shook his head, seeming unbothered by this.
“I say, Shen Fei, why bother going through all that trouble?” Zhang Youcheng looked at Shen Fei with mock bewilderment and casually pressed a button on the remote control in his hand.
In an instant, the three ice pillars that had been destroyed earlier sank down, and three undamaged ice pillars rose in their places.
“I forgot to tell you that the cultivation equipment here has a repair system.” At this point, Zhang Youcheng laughed proudly. “If you break one, I’ll just have it replaced! Let’s see which can last longer, your Flame Owl or my Ice Ghost!”
Shen Fei frowned. ‘Zhang Youcheng is cheating! This is simply unreasonable!’
Since that was the case, he had no reason to continue this stalemate with him. Shen Fei raised his hand and summoned his Three-clawed Golden Dragon from its pocket realm. However, just as he was about to summon the dragon…
…the four ice pillars that had been operating normally suddenly flashed with an ominous red light. The cold air inside had turned into boiling hot air, and it violently erupted from the ice pillars.
The Ice Ghost, which had been standing near an ice pillar, could not dodge in time and was hit by the hot air.
“Screech!” Ice Ghost was so frightened by the hot air that it quickly fled to the side. The ice armor on its body, which had been so strong, was instantly melted into nothingness by the heat.
“What’s going on?!” Zhang Youcheng was enraged, but no matter how he pressed the switch in his hand, the cooling equipment did not respond at all.
“I did it!”
From the white mist to the side, Aloy slowly walked out with her head held high. There was also a Snow Leopard with electric arcs flashing all over its body.
“What’s going on? How did you do that?” Zhang Youcheng stared at Aloy in disbelief.
‘That’s strange. She clearly didn’t have a remote control in her hands, and almost all the spirit beasts here used the ice attribute, so they couldn’t have affected these electrical appliances at all.’
Then, Zhang Youcheng saw the spirit beast that followed Aloy.
The Snow Leopard lazily flapped its four wings and stretched in front of everyone. Blue electric arcs danced around its body. This was the ice-attribute spirit beast, the Ice Spirit, that was created and raised by the Zhang family. However, at this moment, for some reason, it had clearly turned into a lightning-attribute spirit beast.
The device just now was obviously destroyed by the Ice Spirit under Aloy’s orders!
“What did you do to my family’s Ice Spirit?!” Zhang Youcheng glared at Aloy angrily.
“It’s simple. I’ve contracted it. Sorry,” said Aloy as she regarded Zhang Youcheng coldly, “I’ll pay you for the contracted spirit beast when the time comes.
“Now that I’ve gotten a spirit beast, and you two have fought enough, it’s time to let us go.”
“How is it possible for me to just let you leave? Ice Ghost, charge!”
There was no end to this.
The veins on Aloy’s forehead throbbed. With a shift in her gaze, the Snow Leopard beside her immediately pounced on Zhang Youcheng.
“What are you doing?! Stay away from me!” Zhang Youcheng pushed at the Ice Spirit in his panic. But the moment he touched the Ice Spirit’s fur, he was electrocuted and passed out from the shock.
“Flame Owl, now’s the time!” Shen Fei seized the opportunity and gave the Flame Owl the order. In an instant, a huge fireball rushed toward the Ice Ghost.
“Hissss!” The Ice Ghost was immediately forced back into its original form by the huge heat wave emitted by the fireball. It struggled to crawl on the ground, and then fell unconscious.
The moment both master and beast were knocked out, the icicles that were blocking the entrance of the beast breeding institute melted into a puddle.
“Let’s go. It’s time for us to leave this place.” Shen Fei extended his hand toward Aloy, but his eyes curiously gauged the Snow Leopard beside her.
If he was not mistaken, this should be the Ice Spirit that they set their sights on earlier.
