Chapter 555: Law of Fusion

Being chased by a million-strong army was a grueling experience, as this blinding sea of white spiders seemed endless. At this rate, Xia Fei would sooner or later tire himself out!

*Crunch*

Peacock Blue bound an Ice Spider which was slowly creeping in near Xia Fei, who subsequently dispatched it with a stab of his Blood Crystal, draining the blood essence of that huge spider dry.

Such a scene was rare, for rarely would just one or two spiders surround Xia Fei. He would more often find himself dealing with enemies that numbered in hundreds and thousands!

Heading toward the west, Xia Fei hardly had any time to think too much. The over a million spiders had already surpassed what Xia Fei could deal with. He needed to stretch the battle lines as much as possible, so that the army would trail, making it easier for him to divide and conquer!

This was the only method when facing a large number of enemies.

The spiders were of varying age, and the speed they had differed as well. Since they were moving at different speeds, the longer the distance they were made to travel, the more distinct this disparity would become. Only a small portion of spiders was capable of chasing after Xia Fei, and this pursuit would cause them to split off. Taking on just a few thousand spiders was nothing too scary, and Xia Fei’s tactic was slowly working as intended.

Xia Fei was presently retreating from the battle when he noticed that the icy plains in front of him had disappeared!

What was in its place was a lush rainforest, with very clearly defined lines between the ice and trees. On one side was summer, while the other was winter.

Xia Fei was very intrigued to find a planet that would have such a stark contrast when it came to environments. The dividing line between the two was no more than a meter or two in width, yet the climate in either was so different. Just what could be the reason for this?

Just as he stepped past the line, he could feel the temperature rapidly climb. His Silver Desert Armor’s ambient temperature reading was at 42 degrees Celsius, while it had displayed -40 degrees back in the icy plains. That was a difference of almost 70 degrees!

It was practically the difference between ice and fire!

The environment, the temperature, the terrain, the plants; everything was completely different, like two different worlds colliding together!

Those spiders that had chased Xia Fei up to the dividing line came to a halt, as if they were unwilling to take even a step into the tropical region. All of them gathered together and wiggled their heads, screeching at Xia Fei from time to time.

One of the Ice Spiders took a step closer, and it looked as if it suffered greatly when it came into contact with the humid climate. It cried and retreated to its icy world.

Without the ice beneath his feet, his speed had also returned to normal. With a light smile, Xia Fei plunged deep into the rainforest and disappeared without a trace in a matter of seconds!

...

About an hour later, Mu Qiubo arrived at the dividing line while riding the Spider Empress.

“Hmm? Why is this place different?” Mu Qiubo was puzzled by this as well. A single line cordoned the icy plains from the tropical region. The contrast was huge!

Seeing the spiders that had stopped right by the line, Mu Qiubo was enraged. He punched the Spider Empress harshly. “Command your underlings to pass through and continue hunting down that rascal! I must kill him!”

The Spider Empress shook its head, seemingly afraid of going against Mu Qiubo’s orders.

With his two glaring eyes, Mu Qiubo waved his arm and used law to force several Ice Spiders into entering the rainforest.

The Ice Spiders withstood the pain as they forcefully got up from the ground, trembling as they wanted to return to their icy paradise, but none of them dared to do anything when faced with Mu Qiubo’s fierce scowl.

“It’s just a little more humid; you won’t die as a result! I’ll let you off after I kill Xia Fei!”

Just being forceful with the powerful Spider Empress was not enough. Mu Qiubo did not fail to bait the creature accordingly. As the Spider Empress considered the proposition, the spider amassed in greater numbers behind it, forming a substantially powerful force to be reckoned with.

Xia Fei’s assumption had been spot on: Mu Qiubo had used a kind of law to control the Spider Empress.

After spending the past dozen and more days suffering, Mu Qiubo not only failed to kill Xia Fei but also actually witnessed the latter become stronger with each passing day.

It was evident that Xia Fei was much stronger than when he first arrived at the Eternal Ice Plains, his law cultivation soaring by three whole levels, such that he was no more than a step away from becoming a Law Sovereign!

Mu Qiubo had no clue how Xia Fei was able to grow so rapidly in his level, but he was certain that if he continued letting Xia Fei develop like this, there would come a day when even he would have trouble facing the young man!

Mu Qiubo was very envious and jealous that Xia Fei had the ability to use the Law of Primal Chaos to penetrate through spatial barriers. He was even more shocked when he saw him later use those weird blades of grass. He had no idea that it was the Immemorial Mystic Armament Peacock Blue, but from what he had known in his hundreds of years in the Law Realm, Mu Qiubo could vaguely sense the conspicuous plant’s prowess.

Then there were the bodies after bodies of dessicated Ice Spider husks, all looking like they had been drained dry of their blood essence by a vampire, turning into dust with a mere kick as if the very life in those creatures had been siphoned!

All these strange signs combined caused Mu Qiubo to deem Xia Fei as a very freakish and mysterious foe, and he had to think long and hard just to come up with a method to kill Xia Fei!

The Law of Ternary Spectrum’s restriction boundary was wondrous, and there was no trace of energy to it, yet it was able to prevent anything from entering. Even Mu Qiubo with his level 4 Law Emperor cultivation could hardly get anywhere near it.

Mu Qiubo was convinced that the reason why Xia Fe could become so powerful over time had a lot to do with what was inside the boundary. He wished he could just get through and find out what was within, but because he did not have Xia Fei’s Law of Primal Chaos, this was not something he could achieve.

If he managed to capture Xia Fei, perhaps he could learn how he did it, but Xia Fei was crafty, even more slippery than a loach in mud. Forget catching him, as he watched Xia Fei’s cultivation grow in the past couple of days, Mu Qiubo hardly even got any chance of getting anywhere near him.

The more he thought about this, the more depressed he felt. It was Xia Fei’s fault that they were trapped here in the Eternal Ice Plains. Moreover, he was deeply envious seeing the lad grow stronger with each passing day—a feeling that grew into jealousy then hate!

Around afternoon yesterday, Mu QIubo was enjoying being surrounded by the Ice Spiders behind his spatial barrier when a peculiar but colorful Ice Spider appeared from out of nowhere. Upon seeing the colorful spider, all the other Ice Spiders hurriedly duck to another side, as if they were very afraid of it.

Seeing this scene, Mu Qiubo suddenly remembered a minor law he had once learned: the Law of Fusion!

This minor law was a derivative of major and common laws. Different from how major laws were capable of great devastation when mastered, minor laws lacked such destructive power, though they would be greatly enhanced in certain aspects; if a Law Adept was able to integrate a minor law with a major law, it would result in a strengthened combat power!

Warriors in the Law Realm would attempt to cultivate some specialized minor laws aside from their major laws, as a supplementary ability.

The Law of Fusion was an offshoot from the Great Law of Matter and allowed two different species to fuse with each other. For example, fusing a dagger into an arm would allow a warrior to have a hand knife which was as strong and sturdy as metal. It could be used to fuse other biological creatures, and the only drawback to this law was that it could only fuse with either a single substance or living creature.

The sudden appearance of the higher grade colorful spider stunned Mu Qiubo. He suddenly realized that there was not just one species of Ice Spider, so if he could somehow capture the most powerful Ice Spider, perhaps even fuse with their Empress, that would mean gaining access to the ability of controlling all the Ice Spiders out here in the Eternal Ice Plains! It essentially meant that the million of spiders out here would all serve him!

The next day, Mu Qiubo ventured deep into the icy plains, searching for the most powerful Spider Empress as all the other spiders each retreated underground in an effort to protect their Empress. That was the reason why Xia Fei only saw an empty icy plain when he first left the boundary.

The situation became a lot simpler after. Once Mu Qiubo successfully fused with the Spider Empress, thereby gaining control of the million-strong spider army, he made them all hunt after Xia Fei the entire way until he got to this strange rainforest.

*Roar!*

The Spider Empress let out a screech, causing all the Ice Spiders to tremble when they heard it.

Mu Qiubo was pleased. His Law of Fusion had perfect control over the Spider Empress, making it obey everything he commanded.

“Let’s see how you’re gonna survive this time!” Mu Qiubo viciously hissed to himself.

The million of Ice Spiders crossed the dividing line in force, all in an effort to chase after Xia Fei.

Ice Spiders were organisms that lived in the Ice Plains, so of course they could not withstand a temperature up in the thirties. Before long, hundreds of them collapsed, no longer able to take even half a step forward.

Mu Qiubo frowned. He discovered that all the spiders were dependent on the Empress, because it possessed the chilling ice ability; the moisture in its immediate surroundings would turn into ice wherever it went, which greatly reduced the agony the Ice Spiders were experiencing in the humidity.

Mu Qiubo had a brainwave, and he used his Law of Space to erect a huge shield that prevented heat from penetrating while also keeping the cold air from seeping out. He then commanded the Spider Empress to focus on maintaining its ability, turning the entire space chilly.

As the temperature dropped down to -10 degrees, it was now at a range that the Ice Spiders were not used to but at least no longer struggling. This increased the speed of the Ice Spider army’s advancement quite a lot.

One or two exotic beasts could be seen amid the foliage from time to time, and they were all hungrily devoured by the Ice Spiders, so they could not become any threat.

‘Here on this planet, I am King!’ Mu Qiubo thought to himself, delighted.

Come evening, Mu Qiubo had led the Ice Spider army into an open valley. That was when the Spider Empress abruptly came to a halt, no longer willing to take another step forward, seemingly afraid of something.

“Fool! Call your underlings to carry on forward!” Mu Qiubo gave the Spider Empress two ferocious punches on its head, causing it to let out pained cries. Though it was an empress among the Ice Spiders, it was still no match for a Law Emperor.

That was when he heard a human voice from ahead.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t be abusing your mount like that.” Xia Fei was looking at Mu Qiubo from atop a mountain, a slight smile on his face.

On his shoulder was the holy beast Furball, and right beside him was also a giant condor, even larger than an elephant, looking right at Mu Qiubo with its cold and piercing gaze.

“Beast king?” Mu Qiubo was slightly taken aback. He had not seen that large condor beside Xia Fei before, and he had no clue where Xia Fei found it, either.

“You’re still only concerned with yourself even when you’re standing at death’s doors!” Mu Qiubo declared with great gusto, his mouth curling up to form a sinister smirk.

“Reveal the secret inside that colorful light boundary, or else I’ll let these Ice Spiders eat you alive!”

Xia Fei furrowed his brows. “What? You plan to suppress me with your numerical advantage?”

Mu Qiubo burst into boisterous laughter. He waved his two arms out as he pointed to the million-strong Ice Spider army he had brought along with him. “What can you do about it if I rely on my numerical advantage?”

Xia Fei gave a light nod.

All of a sudden, exotic beasts began flooding from both sides of the valley.

Their numbers went well beyond the amount of Ice Spiders that Mu Qiubo had brought along!

It was no wonder that the Spider Empress had been unwilling to take a step into the rainforest. It turned out that this rainforest was a habitat where exotic beasts congregated! There were countless exotic beasts living here!

Xia Fei happened to be someone who had cultivated the Beast Spirit Codex, and beside him was the unparalleled being, the Holy beast Shatterstar!

Seeing Mu Qiubo’s face turn from red and green to white, Xia Fei chuckled. “Didn’t you plan to suppress me with your numerical superiority? Looks like you don’t have enough underling to do that.”

*ROAR*

The roar from the millions of exotic beasts echoed throughout the sky!

The mass of Ice Spiders huddled close in despair, just like ants on a frying pan!
