Chapter 638: The Snow Fox of the Icefield
The smell was rather unpleasant, like the unique odor of some kind of mythical beast.
Ye Fei covered her nose and looked at Ming Xu: "What happened?"
Mingxu pointed ahead, and Yefei followed his finger. The cliff edge ahead, unlit by the firelight, was pitch black. However, in the darkness, there were pairs of blood-red eyes staring intently in their direction, like red-eyed demons lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce.
"Is it a spirit beast?" Ye Fei narrowed her eyes.
Mingxu nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a group of Icefield Snow Foxes."
Ye Fei turned to look at him: "You know anything about this spirit beast?"
“Yes, the Icefield Snow Foxes often appear in groups, and their red eyes and unique strange smell are their symbols.” Mingxu explained to Yefei simply. “They are very intelligent and have a strong sense of teamwork. As social spirit beasts, they are also very territorial. Once they discover that an intruder has occupied their territory, they will try their best to kill the intruder.”
When talking about this spirit beast, Mingxu's attitude changed from lazy to serious.
Ye Fei paused for a few seconds: "So, these Icefield Snow Foxes think we're intruders?"
“Not bad.” Ming Xu stood up, drew a gleaming white bone blade from his waist, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his heterochromatic eyes, which were half black and half gold: “The Icefield Snow Fox is a warlike spirit beast, and it will fight to the death. Right now, we have no choice but to fight side by side.”
Ye Fei glanced at him silently, without saying a word to refute, placed the little one on her shoulder, and instructed, "Hold on tight."
"Mmm!" The little one gripped Ye Fei's clothes tightly with both of her tiny hands.
"Awoo..."
Under the moonlight, the roars of spirit beasts echoed throughout the world.
Light snow was falling, and the cold wind blowing in our faces made us shiver.
Ye Fei exhaled a breath of white air, her gaze fixed on the spirit beasts that emerged step by step from the darkness. They had silver-white fur, were about the same size as adult foxes, but much stronger than ordinary foxes, and their crimson demonic eyes flashed with intense hostility.
"Be careful not to get bitten by them," Mingxu warned. "Their bodily fluids contain a deadly cold poison."
"Okay, I'll keep that in mind."
After she finished speaking, a dagger that was entirely fire-colored appeared in her hand.
At such extremely cold temperatures, no plants could possibly grow within a hundred miles, so her wood-type spiritual energy couldn't find a good place to be used in the Flying Snow Secret Realm.
Her second spiritual root, the fire spiritual root, has a natural advantage against ice and snow, which may be a deterrent when facing this group of icefield snow foxes.
As expected, when Ye Fei and Ming Xu released their fire-type spiritual energy at the same time, the Icefield Snow Fox's eyes changed, and it took a few steps back, showing more apprehension towards their spiritual energy.
Ye Fei and Ming Xu exchanged a glance, and then Ming Xu took the initiative to act. He flashed forward and slashed the bone blade in his hand down at the head of the Icefield Snow Fox!
The bone blade, wreathed in intensely hot black flames, slashed at the neck of the Icefield Snow Fox. With a whoosh, blood splattered, and its head was instantly severed!
"Aww!"
Seeing this, the Icefield Snow Foxes quickly launched a siege on Mingxu. They were indeed very cooperative, attacking from both sides and putting Mingxu in a dilemma.
Ye Fei immediately used Phantom Step to arrive swiftly, and with a sweep of her dagger, flames flew everywhere, and she killed several Icefield Snow Foxes in a few moments.
The battle began at that moment. A sharp and dangerous cold wind blew across the corpses scattered on the ground, and the falling snowflakes seemed to be stained with blood.
