Ice Crystal Prison

After explaining the situation to everyone, Tang Miao prepared to follow the glowing bead to search for it. Although the lightning and wind blades here were very powerful, they were not a problem for Tang Miao.

With its Ice Element defense, it can withstand this attack.

"You all rest here first, I'll take a walk around this area." With that, he prepared to head towards the place indicated by the bead.

Mu Nujiao originally wanted to be with Tang Miao, but she was afraid of being accused of running away because she was afraid of danger... so she didn't move.

Mu Ningxue, on the other hand, was the indifferent one. Most importantly, she was afraid that Tang Miao would take advantage of her again if she was with him, so she had no intention of leaving the team.

Jiang Shaoxu, however, felt safer with Tang Miao, and quickly followed after her. She didn't feel safe with the people here at all.

Seeing that Jiang Shaoxu and Tang Miao intended to explore the vicinity, Ai Jiangtu did not stop them. There was nothing he could do; there were so many strange birds outside that they couldn't go anywhere else.

They only sent the more reliable Nan Jue with them, and instructed her, "We'll wait for you here. Keep your communication devices working."

Nan Jue and Jiang Shaoxu followed Tang Miao deeper into the lightning storm, where the storm was strong enough to shake even General Level creatures.

The lightning bolts became more and more frequent, striking right in front of everyone every now and then. Fortunately, Tang Miao's Ice Wall defense was strong enough that he was not injured.

This was the first time Nan Jue had ever seen Ice Magic used like this, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Your Ice Magic is a bit too overpowered! It even has such strong defensive capabilities?"

Jiang Shaoxu, without any restraint, linked arms with Tang Miao. Hearing Nan Jue's praise, she beamed with delight, as if it were a compliment to her.

However, for Jiang Shaoxu, it meant that this man was her future husband, so it was naturally something to be happy about in praising him.

Tang Miao replied, "It's just an ability within my domain."

"The lightning ahead is too intense, should we continue?"

As Nan Jue walked further in, the lightning became more frequent. The deep yellow lightning ahead flashed repeatedly, tearing through the chaos of the wind and almost forming a warning net, pressing down on anyone who tried to approach.

Tang Miao didn't stop, but instead said, "Didn't you notice that the lightning here seems different?"

Upon hearing this, Nan Jue examined the object carefully, then exclaimed in surprise, "This is a restriction!?"

The lightning of the forbidden formations is mostly yellow, and people have actually seen such a dense interweaving of lightning before, at the East Guardian Pavilion of the Twin Guardian Pavilion in Japan.

Although the girls didn't come at first, they later witnessed its effects.

"Any place that can set up something like this must have treasures. Aren't you curious?"

The appearance of a barrier erected by humans within the storm indicates that someone intends to lock away the secret at the storm's center. But what secret could possibly need to be hidden within such a terrifying hurricane?

Without a doubt, the stuff inside will be top-notch!

Of course, Tang Miao didn't actually know what was inside. However, the way the bead was flashing was enough to show that what was inside was definitely of great use to him.

Therefore, Tang Miao definitely wouldn't back down now. However, since it was a restriction, there must be some kind of messy incantation or something inside. So Tang Miao felt that he had to bring Nan Jue along with him.

This handsome tomboy is an expert in this area!

"This is a very ancient Lightning Element restriction technique. Let's go, let's continue forward!"

Nan Jue's curiosity was clearly piqued, and she suddenly became even more enthusiastic, even preparing to take the lead and walk ahead.

However, Tang Miao pulled her to his side.

Because he was suddenly pulled back, Tang Miao felt there was some meat involved in the collision!

And it's incredibly elastic!

It looks ordinary at first glance, but it turns out it's actually quite impressive!

At the same time, Nan Jue and Jiang Shaoxu were glaring at each other!

Tang Miao explained, "The wind force outside is now equivalent to that of Intermediate Magic!"

Hearing Tang Miao's explanation, the two women finally let Tang Miao go. Jiang Shaoxu even used her cleavage to tightly lock Tang Miao's embrace.

The wind's intensity is equivalent to Intermediate Magic, but that doesn't mean its impact is only that of an Intermediate Magic. It's equivalent to an entire Intermediate Mage brigade bombarding them constantly—that kind of destructive power is terrifying!

Fortunately, Tang Miao's Ice Element had reached the advanced level two; otherwise, even his Ice Wall might not have been able to withstand such continuous bombardment for long...

After all, his Ice Element wasn't simply defensive magic; it was merely a domain skill.

Nan Jue seemed very interested in what was inside, and asked earnestly, "Can we continue forward?"

Tang Miao nodded and replied, "Although I'm not Turtle Shell Mage like Zhao Manyan, I can still handle this level."

After saying that, Tang Miao pulled his hand away from Jiang Shaoxu. Then, he put his arm around each of their shoulders, and before the two girls could glare at him, Tang Miao explained, "To conserve magic, just bear with it."

Jiang Shaoxu snorted, "Don't move!"

More than being taken advantage of by Tang Miao, Nan Jue was concerned about the restrictions inside.

Little did she know that Jiang Shaoxu's instruction not to "move around" was merely a reminder to Tang Miao not to take advantage of "her"...

Tang Miao didn't respond. At a time like this, could he really listen to Jiang Shaoxu? That was no joke!

As for saving mana? That's just for... hehe~

Holding the two women in his arms, his hands seemed to have become measuring tapes all the way. Although he received a lot of glares, he still managed to reach the restricted area filled with yellow lightning.

From the outside, the entire storm appears black, obscuring the color of the lightning and giving a sense of destruction. However, once inside, one discovers that the truly dense lightning is actually caused by these yellow barriers.

A barrier is a wall made of offensive magical energy, requiring several times its own strength to destroy. But it also has a door and a key; once you find the door and the key, the barrier isn't actually that scary or inaccessible.

Looking at this thing, Tang Miao was glad he had brought it to this tomboy; otherwise, it would have been a complete waste.

Although Tang Miao thought this tomboy was alright, she still asked, "Can you untie it?"

Nan Jue nodded confidently and said, "Sure, the ruins and broken walls of the ruins will give me some clues, but it will take some time. Also, you need to give me a larger area..."

Being held in his arms naturally prevents him from using his abilities, and most importantly, this shameless guy keeps... it's absolutely despicable!

"Ice Crystal Prison!"

Tang Miao nodded, then quickly sketched out the Ice Element constellation. Suddenly, several thick Ice Wall descended with a "bang, "Ice Wall transforming into a semi-circular structure resembling the Kun's Forest prison, perfectly sealing the three of them inside.

This is a skill Tang Miao created by fusing the Ice Coffin and Ice Crystal Defense after upgrading to the second level of the high-level Ice Element and obtaining the Extreme Cold Ice power of the Snow Woman. It can not only control enemies but also form a massive protective barrier; however, this spell is extremely energy-intensive...
