But there are no "ifs" in the world. The Icefield Dragon's flight speed was extremely fast. Combined with Zhang Wei's punch speed, the two sides collided in an instant.
Sparks erupted from the Icefield Dragon's chest, accompanied by a grating sound.
The punch, manifested from intent, was incredibly persistent, like a real impact drill, spinning wildly within the Icefield Dragon's embrace!
Boom!!!
The Icefield Dragon used its maximum strength with its arms, and surprisingly, crushed the drill bit into pieces.
Shrapnel scattered everywhere, disappearing in moments.
The dragon felt a sense of lingering fear, realizing that had it not been for the weak point, this terrifying object could have truly pierced its chest...
Its gaze towards Zhang Wei now held no trace of contempt, but a deep sense of dread!
"This beast has high intelligence, but it's too old to tame... and taming isn't my specialty."
"Though I do like animals, that kind of liking... is the kind that involves not being able to go without them for every meal!"
"Rather than taming you, you'll become a meal on my plate!"
Zhang Wei felt a surge of excitement that the Icefield Dragon had managed to withstand his ultimate move.
How long had it been since he cultivated extraordinary power? Finally, he could have a no-holds-barred battle!
Then, to the dragon's astonishment, steel drills shot out one after another, as if they consumed no energy! Big Wind Novel
The Icefield Dragon no longer dared to meet the attacks head-on. It immediately leveraged its mobility, soaring into the sky and maneuvering constantly.
Meanwhile, Zhang Wei was like a turret with infinite ammo, unstoppable.
The mercenary monkeys were utterly stunned, unable to believe that a human could gain the upper hand!
Such a powerful attack... shouldn't it be a trump card, an ultimate skill?
How could it feel like a casual normal attack!
The Icefield Dragon was reduced to a moving target, completely unable to retaliate against this human!
Moreover, the pressure on the Icefield Dragon grew. The human's accuracy was improving at a visible rate, even learning to predict flight trajectories!
Most importantly, the human's strength seemed inexhaustible. He had unleashed hundreds of these fatal attacks without even breaking a sweat.
A counterattack was necessary!
The Icefield Dragon closed the distance, its massive body making evasion extremely difficult.
But even at the cost of injury, the dragon had to get within two hundred meters of Zhang Wei!
Its teeth flashed, and a silver-white beam of energy shot out!
Zhang Wei wasn't foolish; he had no intention of meeting it head-on. Relying on his small size, he weaved through the branches.
Where the energy beam struck, massive ice crystals grew wildly, forming a pattern akin to frost flowers in a freezer.
But it was more three-dimensional, and the ice crystals were more lethal!
The Icefield Dragon immediately switched its mode. Its condensed breath transformed into a scattered flashlight beam, and the frigid energy enveloped the entire area.
"Switching from a targeted skill to AoE?"
There was no time to complain; the extreme cold energy had already enveloped him.
At that moment, a bone-chilling cold swept over him!
Since awakening his Food Cells, Zhang Wei hadn't felt the cold in a long time!
It felt like being in a freezer wearing only shorts and underwear in his previous life, the wind from the fan blowing over his body.
Every inch of his skin felt a knife-like pain.
The extreme low temperature posed a severe crisis for Zhang Wei!!!
Temperatures exceeding his tolerance limit would stiffen his joints.
Not only would his agility, precision, and reaction speed all decrease...
Under these negative effects, Zhang Wei could no longer dodge nimbly.
Seizing the opportunity, the Icefield Dragon condensed its dispersed breath again and blew directly at Zhang Wei.
Ice shards and snow pillars grew on Zhang Wei, rapidly expanding to a volume of thousands of cubic meters...
It looked like a snow-made honeycomb hanging from the branches.
The Icefield Dragon lay on the ground, panting, emitting soft groans. This series of battles, coupled with the widespread breath attack, had consumed a lot of its energy.
Not to mention the considerable injuries sustained from being hit by several drills during aerial maneuvers.
The mercenary monkeys beside it cheered ecstatically, pounding their chests, and letting out incomprehensible cries. They were not surprised by the Icefield Dragon's victory, but the celebration was a must.
They had already planned to dig up Zhang Wei's corpse after the Icefield Dragon left. Human corpses contained extremely high energy and would surely be delicious.
The Icefield Dragon looked up, comparing hundreds of "hams" side-by-side.
Consuming high-quality food accelerated recovery. Beasts understood this better. As the king of the Icefield, many ferocious beasts were waiting for its weakness.
Crack~
Crack~
The Icefield Dragon suddenly turned its head. The ice formed by its breath was cracking inch by inch.
This human!
Was he not dead yet?
Warm-blooded animals were clearly very susceptible to extreme cold!
Having fought countless battles, the Icefield Dragon knew the effect of its freezing breath on various types of enemies.
For fish, lizards, crocodiles, and snakes, it would induce hibernation.
For warm-blooded animals like cattle, sheep, tigers, and leopards, it was fatal!
A golden light erupted from within the ice shards.
Accompanying it was a murmur that sounded like it came from the apex of the food chain.
"Zhan Dao..."
"Open!!"
A golden saber energy, as if descending from the heavens, burst forth!
The Icefield Dragon flapped its wings and ascended, but the saber energy spanned across the sky, seemingly endless, with nowhere to hide!
"Roar!!!!"
The Icefield Dragon let out a desperate roar, channeling its breath with all its might to form an ice shield in front of its chest.
Unlike the one that restrained Zhang Wei, this ice shield was crystal clear and flawless, like pure crystal!
This was the Icefield Dragon's strongest defensive move, summoning the absolute cold stored within its body to form this shield. It had never been broken in its lifetime.
This ice shield had saved the Icefield Dragon's life in countless battles.
The Icefield Dragon had absolute confidence in this ice shield.
But today, its confidence wavered...
The breath continued!
The ice shield grew thicker and thicker!
The expelled energy beam now carried traces of blood, but it couldn't afford to care!
If it could withstand this attack, the Icefield Dragon vowed to flee far away, as far as possible from this human!
Crack!
The ice shield shattered like glass...
The saber energy passed through its body.
The Icefield Dragon tried to let out another roar, but in an instant, it completely lost its life and plummeted straight down...

One move!
In just one move, the king of the Icefield perished.
The golden light on Zhang Wei's body dissipated, and the bone-chilling cold vanished as well.
"What... happened?"
Zhang Wei was a bit dazed. He only knew that he had been hit by the Icefield Dragon's breath, and the extreme cold had nearly frozen him to death.
At that moment, Zhang Wei truly felt the sensation of life fading away.
He was still feeling the fear.
"Could it be that the life-threatening crisis activated my Food Cells, forcibly borrowing the power of the Gluttony Demon?"
"That breath attack was indeed powerful. Without the Gluttony Demon, I'm afraid I would have truly died here."
"Damn it, I'm never taking such a risk again."
Looking at the corpse of the Icefield Dragon, Zhang Wei felt a sense of regret.
He had originally intended to hone his combat skills with it, but unexpectedly, it had died so abruptly.
