Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 407: Ambush!

-----

With the death of several Dark Shadow Sect Members by the hands of Tisha and Pekora, the army of shadow beasts became smaller and smaller in the back of the sect's walls. The monstrous creatures were now just a few dozen from the original thousands and would soon become even less as things went on. Only a small group of three Dark Shadow Sect Elders remained, who were all mounting giant Lesser Shadow Jormungandr.

These deadly beasts had yet to be taken down as they exuded a powerful Rank 4 presence, they were unleashing an Aura and Domain of Shadow which enhanced the power of the Shadow Beasts, but it seemed that it was proving to be infective at the end, as the army they fought was simply way stronger than them! Just like that…

Elder Jianyung, an elder of the Dark Shadow Sect leading the squadron of three Lesser Shadow Jormungandr, was a criminal well know around this area of the continent and had survived since he was a young teenager. His family was destroyed by beasts and then he wandered in the wilderness like a rabid wild kid for very long, until he was taken by a group of bandits who made him their lackey and ultimately taught him how to assault other villages, pillage, and survive in this destructive way.

However, as they got too close to a sect one day, they ended being persecuted by the righteous faction, this sect had many allies and they all ended cornering them, which ended in the annihilating of his group of bandit friends who had raised him since he was a teen.

As he despaired while being captured by the righteous faction, he was suddenly saved by a band of malicious magus, who slain the army of righteous faction and then took the boy, which later on joined the army of the dark shadow sect.

Joining a sect of malicious magus, Jianyung had to do everything he could to survive and thrive, he killed, fought, and gained fame, he was as ruthless as they were taught to me, and quickly rose to power over the years, becoming a Peak-Stage Rank 3 Elder now.

His power was formidable and so was his tyranny. He was a malicious man, and he grew in such a manner due to necessity and to survive… now he knew very well what has been found, the darkness that dwells now within the sect master of the Dark Shadow Sect, after finding the inheritance of the Tenebrous Shadow Immortal ten years ago that things had slowly begun to change.

Jianyung knew that this power could lead them to not only destroy any enemy they wanted, but completely take over all of Jotunheim if they were to use it right, and even more, they were going to use it on its full potential!

Although he was not well known before dying, the Tenebrous Shadow Immortal was a powerful Ice Giant who had cultivated the power of his Mana Core of Darkness and Shadows, evolving its power to completely new levels, said to belong to some kind of Ancient Order named "The Order of Colors" referred as Black for short, he died out of old age and had left his legacy for those seeking to follow the path of darkness and shadows.

Its inheritance included all sorts of new powers and spells, alongside an entire set of special artefacts he had crafted, a massive pile of mana stones, and Spell Jewels which contained his strongest spells, that could even be conjured by the weakest of mortals as long as they had Mana to use them.

Using these Spell Jewels was how they were able to bring forth the power of darkness and shadows into the continent, for years the sect formed an army of Shadow Beasts and waited for the right moment, and finally, finally, after they were able to do so and found a good opportunity when the two nearby Sects fought against one another for a stupid affair that they themselves set up was when it was finally time to strike and reap the benefits!

Now Jianyung wanted to merely finish what they had started with the sect of Winter Lotus, however, things proved to not go according to their plan as a mysterious group of outsiders interrupted their conquest of this sect, a charismatic man controlling winds and several other formidable fighters meddled themselves into an affair that didn't belonged to them and began to do things they shouldn't had to.

Jianyung couldn't believe how strong they were, though, even more as they were not only just ice giants but all sorts of other races than them, ice elves and beast-kin included, who showed a level of power he had never seen in these discriminated races that his sect mostly used as servants and sexual slaves, and most recently as sacrifices to fuel the Shadow Nest where the Shadow Beasts were created from…

He felt utterly shocked as he saw their amazing performance, and in just a few minutes, with the help of some more, they ended cutting down almost 90% of the army he led, without counting the other army at the front of the sect, which was being led by other elders.

He felt with the utter necessity of escaping with his life, he didn't had the resolve to stay and die here, even if he had to fight against these pathetic non-ice-giants whom he hated a lot for being weaklings who dared to fight back against the true ruler of this continent…

Jianyung looked down at the battlefield, even with the beasts they had, which were powerful beast at Rank 4, he couldn't afford them to die as they were valuable steeds that were born from the eggs of the Tenebrosity that their sect master has been raising, who hatched from an egg left in the inheritance as well.

Due to that, they decided to move away at a fast speed, deciding to not intervene anymore and to come back in a later date with a better plan this time around!

But this wasn't the case as the three were quickly greeted by a group of ice giants, ice elves, and beast-kin… they had quickly caught up to them, and were not going to let them make any other step…

"You're not going anywhere." Said Tisha.

"Why don't you stay to play a bit more?" asked Pekora.

"Don't worry, we'll be gentle." Said Laddan.

"Very gentle…" said Benlah.
