Chapter 123: How Can He Ignore My Glacial Mist?!

Max’s figure flashed across the sky.

At this moment, Max had already raised his speed to the limit. After devouring the existence of 3 powerful entities, Max’s top speed was comparable to that of a Prime Dragon.

However, regardless of the existences that he had absorbed, Max was still far too young. Had Max been given more time to grow to the Prime Dragon age, Max’s speed would be comparable to that of an Ancient Dragon.

At present, despite being more than a dozen kilometers away from Catherine, Max was certain that she would catch up before long.

After all, when Catherine had first appeared before him, she had flown at a speed that was faster than the beam-like ice spears that she had launched at him!

Max estimated that Catherine had probably surpassed the speed of sound.

A biting hurricane blew past Max’s face as the scenes on the ground rapidly streaked across him. Max was flying at a truly astonishing speed.

Had there been humans present below him, they would likely have thought that a scarlet meteorite had passed them by.

At this moment, Max suddenly felt as if a needle had been stabbed into his mind.

A piercing pain came directly from the depths of his mind.

This sudden feeling startled Max.

‘What on Earth happened?’

Much to Max’s shock, the skies that were originally clear were now covered with icy blue clouds.

These clouds were already thick in the first place, but they seemed to be increasing their density even further.

Within the span of a few seconds, they had already completely blocked Max’s line of sight, so much so that Max could barely see the situation in the distance. The only way he could determine his advance now was to base it on the changing terrain beneath him.

The clouds seemed to be infused with vast amounts of mana. With Max’s current abilities, it was nigh impossible to break through them.

Max uttered a mental curse. ‘Isn’t this the ability that only Ancient Silver Dragons are capable of using? Glacial Mist!’

‘This mist is indeed a troublesome ability. The instant it appeared, I immediately lost my ability to navigate the terrain.’

Had Max not put such a huge distance between himself and Catherine, not only would he lose his sense of direction, he would most likely be swallowed up by the Glacial Mist.

Soon, Max was completely surrounded by the Glacial Mist.

This was no mere mist, and it seemed to envelope Max’s body entirely. As a result, Max had great difficulty sensing the fire and lightning elemental spirits in the air.

If one were to look at the sky from the ground at this moment, they would see a brilliant icy blue sky. Despite being daytime, the scintillating sky would remind one of the Milky Way at night. It was truly a sight to behold.

Had Max’s mother, Agatha, or any other Ancient Dragon stumble into Catherine’s Glacial Mist, they would likely fall into chaos.

Max’s strength was vastly inferior to Catherine’s, and as such, unless he continued flying at top speeds in the right direction, Catherine would likely catch up and seal his fate.

Nevertheless, Max did not panic.

At this moment, a playful smile flashed across Max’s face. In a world where only Max could observe, he brought up the system interface and tapped on the map function.

A large azure map appeared in the upper right corner of Max’s line of sight.

The location that represented the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal was not far from Max’s position.

At this moment, the map that was originally used to pinpoint the snow lotus’ location had become a sharp weapon to assist Max in escaping the predicament of the Glacial Mist.

From his inspection of the map, the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal was less than 20 kilometers away from him. At his speeds, he would be able to reach the plant in no time.

That was not the only good news, however, as the location of the snow lotus was coincidentally in a straight path ahead of him!

This meant that Max would be able to snag the snow lotus while he was escaping.

Of course, this was only on theory. As for whether he would actually be able to snag the plant while under Catherine’s pursuit, Max was not too confident in his prospects.

After all, the one chasing him was a genuine Ancient Dragon.

‘Catherine might even be stronger than my mother.’

‘After all, Agatha is still considered a youngling even amongst the dragons.’

While Max was following the path laid out to him by the system’s map…

In the distance, Catherine, who was casting the Glacial Mist to throw Max’s senses into disarray, frowned.

Through her perception of the ice and wind elementals, she could tell that Max was completely unfazed by the Glacial Mist that she had just unleashed. He was travelling in a pencil-straight line.

Catherine was highly confident in her ability to use Gravity Manipulation and Glacial Fog. After all, it was due to her mastery over these two skills that she was able to dominate and rule over the Moldos Mountain Range.

‘It’s only a Dragon Hatchling, so what if he possesses a physique and talent that surpasses his peers?’

‘Even Avril is incapable of escaping from the Glacial Mist once she’s trapped!’

‘How is he doing it?’

Catherine’s eyes focused. The enormous wings on her back shone like gemstones under the illumination of the sun.

Two enormous hurricanes suddenly appeared. After which, Catherine’s body transformed into a silver-colored ray of light that rushed towards Max’s direction!

She flew at breakneck speeds!

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two, which was originally over dozens of kilometers, was reduced to 10 kilometers.

Max turned his head and sensed an extremely dangerous aura. It had already locked onto him.

‘Things aren’t looking so good!’

‘She’s coming after me!’

During this extremely critical moment, a mechanical voice sounded in Max’s mind.

Max was very familiar with this voice. It was the voice of the system that had accompanied him throughout his journey in this new and foreign world!

[ Host Max, you are extremely close to your target, the Dark Snow Lotus Crystal. However, the Ancient Silver Dragon is an entity that is beyond the host’s ability to handle. In such a situation, please make your choice! ]
