The figure looked at Qin Ran standing there, a trace of displeasure flashing through his deep blue eyes.
Whoosh!
A cold wind sprang up out of nowhere and blew toward Qin Ran.
Before the wind reached him, Qin Ran had already sensed the threat within it, and his body instinctively dodged to one side.
Crrrack!
The cold wind struck the ground where Qin Ran had been standing, and a layer of frost immediately spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This frost was no longer a finger thick like the frost on the Frost Path earlier. It was nearly ten centimeters thick and radiated a shiver-inducing chill.
And the wind did not stop!
Instead, it swept toward him with even greater cold and force.
Whoosh!
The cold wind roared, seemingly transforming into an invisible serpent of ice and snow. Its winding body rapidly coiled, its head rearing high as its hiss shook the sky.
Even from a full five meters away, Qin Ran could clearly see the white mist of his breath leaving his mouth and nose.
The mist turned into ice crystals the instant it left him.
He could easily imagine what would happen if that blast of cold actually struck him.
So he would never let it get close.
"AIO!"
He thrust out one hand, fingers spread and palm facing outward, and a cone of flame erupted.
Boom!
Under the [Heart of Fusion]'s special effect, [Blazing Sulfur], his Master-level [Burning Hands] instantly reached Powerful-level fire damage.
Flames instantly engulfed the 60° cone extending 3.5 meters in front of him.
Including... that cold wind!
The cold wind raged, and the invisible serpent of ice and snow raised its head and hissed.
The flames surged, becoming an endless sea of fire that seared everything.
Ice and fire collided.
