The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

The Bull Demon King, impatient by nature, could no longer contain himself. He swung his iron cudgel and smashed it against the cave wall, sending countless ice crystal fragments flying.

However, instead of absorbing the cold air, he was attacked by it and his whole body trembled from the cold.

"You stupid ox, don't do anything reckless!"

Shen Jing hurriedly stepped forward to support the Bull Demon King, helping him dispel the cold that had invaded his body. "Jiang Chuan is right. We need to find the right method and not act rashly."

"Li Chunfeng, do you have any clues?"

Jiang Chuan turned to Li Chunfeng and asked.

Li Chunfeng smiled slightly and pointed to the depths of the cave: "I remember seeing a cultivation method called the Ice Heart Technique in ancient books. It is said to guide cultivators to absorb the cold energy between heaven and earth and make it their own."

"Perhaps we can master the power of glaciers by cultivating this technique."

"The Ice Heart Technique?"

Everyone looked surprised. Did such a technique still exist in the world?
"That's right. Although I read about the Ice Heart Manual by chance, its principles are very similar to our current situation."

"We might as well give it a try; perhaps we can turn this crisis into an opportunity."

Li Chunfeng spoke slowly.

So everyone sat together, and Li Chunfeng began to verbally explain the cultivation method of the Ice Heart Technique.

They held their breath and, following Li Chunfeng's instructions, tried to sense and absorb the surrounding cold air.

At first, the cold stung the skin like a knife, but as the mental technique was activated, the cold was gradually guided to the dantian and transformed into a cool yet vibrant energy.

As time passed, their complexions gradually regained their rosy hue, and their bodies, which had been stiff from the cold, became more agile.

When they raised their palms again, a faint icy blue halo appeared in their palms, proof that they had successfully controlled the power of the glacier.

"It's done!"

The Bull Demon King shouted excitedly, wielding his iron cudgel. A burst of frost power, accompanied by the shadow of the cudgel, shot out and struck the distant ice wall, leaving a deep icy mark.

"Great!"

Qingyun was overjoyed. He drew his longsword, and a sharp ice spike condensed at the tip of the sword, its cold light flashing and chilling.

Shen Jing then inserted the Bagua Longsword into the ice, and a thick layer of ice armor instantly condensed around the sword. He nodded in satisfaction: "This ice-attribute defense is probably so strong that even the lightning pillar of that Black Scale Fierce Dragon cannot easily penetrate it."

"Now that we have mastered the power of the glacier, it is time to fight that black-scaled dragon!" Jiang Chuan was full of pride and took the lead in leaping out of the ice cave. The others followed closely behind and headed towards the black-scaled dragon.

"Evil Heart Demon, your arrogance won't last long!" Jiang Chuan gazed at the still proudly standing black-scaled dragon in the distance, a confident smile playing on his lips.

"Brother, what's your plan?" Qingyun asked. They all knew that their current ice-attribute attacks were not enough to completely defeat the Black Scale Fierce Dragon.

Jiang Chuan's gaze was deep as he said in a low voice, "We need to split up. On one hand, we'll distract the Black-Scaled Flood Dragon, and on the other hand, we'll look for its weaknesses."

"Remember, once you find a weakness, immediately notify everyone and launch a coordinated attack!"

As the Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon sensed the approach of the group, a cold glint of cunning flashed in its eyes. Suddenly, its massive body twisted violently, instantly stirring up thousands of layers of ice waves.

It let out a low growl, and lightning surged around its body. The next moment, several blazing lightning pillars descended from the sky, pointing directly at the crowd.

"careful!"

Shen Jing shouted, brandishing his Bagua sword, and an ice shield instantly appeared, blocking the way for everyone.

The lightning bolts struck the shield, shattering it as ice shards and lightning danced in the air, but failed to breach the defenses.

"This guy's attacks are even more ferocious than before!"

The Bull Demon King brandished his iron cudgel, frost power flowing around him, and roared, "Brothers, let's fight it!"

"Let's stabilize the situation and proceed according to plan!"

Jiang Chuan calmly gave instructions, knowing full well that the Black-Scaled Flood Dragon was in a state of rage and any impulsive action could have fatal consequences.

He quickly gave Qingyun a wink, and the two of them tacitly separated, trying to attract the attention of the Black-Scaled Dragon from both sides.

"You beast, taste my icy sword energy!"

With a shout, Qingyun unleashed his longsword, slashing through the air. A chilling sword aura sliced ​​through the night sky, aiming straight for the black-scaled dragon's left eye.

The black-scaled dragon roared in pain, its massive body turning towards the azure clouds, unleashing a torrent of lightning.

"Qingyun, watch out!"

Shen Jing called out anxiously, but Qingyun was fearless, nimbly weaving between the lightning pillars, his sword energy flowing continuously, aiming straight for the vital points of the Black Scaled Dragon.

At the same time, Li Chunfeng also launched an offensive.

He formed hand seals and silently chanted a spell. A powerful, icy force erupted from his body, instantly condensing into a massive iceberg in front of him.

With a flick of his finger, the iceberg hurtled toward the black-scaled dragon like a meteorite, freezing the air in its path.

Upon seeing this, the black-scaled dragon opened its mouth and spewed out a blazing flame, attempting to melt the iceberg.

However, the iceberg did not melt in the flames; instead, it became even harder, like a giant ice cannonball, which slammed into the black-scaled dragon.

"Roar--"

The black-scaled dragon roared in pain, its massive body being knocked back several steps by the iceberg. A look of astonishment flashed in its eyes, clearly not expecting that these humans could withstand or even counterattack its attack.

"A good opportunity! Find its weaknesses!"

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shen Jing shouted, maintaining the frost shield while carefully observing the Black Scaled Dragon's reaction.

The Bull Demon King brandished his iron cudgel and charged at the Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon, attempting to engage in close combat.

However, the black scales on the Black Scaled Dragon's body were as hard as iron, and the Bull Demon King's attacks were like hitting a copper wall and an iron barrier, unable to cause effective damage.

"Damn it, this tough-skinned guy!"

The Bull Demon King cursed, secretly anxious. If they couldn't find a weakness soon, they might all perish here.

"I've found it!"

Qingyun suddenly shouted. He was fighting with the black-scaled dragon and keenly noticed a faint glimmer of light on the dragon's abdomen.

"There, on its belly, there's a glowing scale that looks like its weak point!"

Upon hearing Qingyun's shout, Jiang Chuan immediately understood.

He mobilized the glacial power within his body, gathering it into a giant ice cone, aimed at the glowing scales on the belly of the Black Scaled Dragon, and hurled it with all his might.

"Go, Ice Soul Piercing Arrow!"

Jiang Chuan let out a low shout, and the ice spike streaked across the night sky like a meteor, heading straight for the Black Scaled Dragon.

"Shen Jing, protect Qingyun!"

Jiang Chuan shouted, knowing that this attack was a matter of life and death for everyone, and that he had to go all out.

Upon hearing this, Shen Jing immediately adjusted the position of the Frost Shield, placing it above Qingyun to provide him with solid protection.

"Qingyun, seize the opportunity and attack that scale!"

Shen Jing shouted, knowing that every attack from Qingyun at this moment was crucial.

Qingyun gritted his teeth, and the cold aura on his longsword surged. He moved swiftly and instantly appeared below the belly of the Black Scaled Dragon.

He took a deep breath, gathered all his strength, and thrust his sword at the glowing scale.

"Die, you beast!"

Qingyun roared, and the tip of his sword pierced the scales precisely. A powerful shockwave erupted from the tip of the sword, instantly penetrating the scales and entering the body of the Black Scaled Dragon.

The black-scaled dragon roared deafeningly, and the attacks that everyone had just launched with all their might seemed to vanish in an instant, blasted into nothingness by its immense power.

Everyone's hearts tightened, and their faces were filled with disbelief and shock.

"How can it be……"

Qingyun stared wide-eyed at the unharmed black-scaled dragon, his voice trembling.

"This beast's power far exceeds our imagination!"

Shen Jing's face was pale, and his hand gripping the Bagua sword trembled slightly, clearly indicating that he was equally shocked. Just then, the Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon's eyes turned blood red, and its massive body twisted wildly. Its body, which was tens of meters long, was completely exposed to the moonlight, resembling a moving iceberg, with a terrifying aura.

It swung its tail violently, charging straight at the crowd with overwhelming force.

"Get out of the way!"

Jiang Chuan reacted quickly, letting out a sharp shout and dodging first.

However, the giant tail swept across at an astonishing speed. Everyone only saw a flash of cold light before hearing a loud "bang".

The seemingly indestructible ice-attribute shield was as fragile as paper under the Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon's ferocious attack, and shattered instantly.

"not good!"

Upon seeing this, the Bull Demon King stepped forward without hesitation, wielding his Iron Cudgel to create streaks of frost, attempting to block the fatal blow.

However, the Black Scaled Dragon's tail was too terrifying, and the Bull Demon King's defense seemed so powerless in front of it.

With a "crack," the iron rod snapped in two, and the Bull Demon King was struck by the giant tail, flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily onto the ice.

"The Bull Demon King!"

Qingyun, Shen Jing, and the others exclaimed in surprise and rushed to the spot where the Bull Demon King had fallen.

The Bull Demon King was seen curled up in agony on the ice, his face pale and his forehead covered in cold sweat.

A dark, poisonous thorn was clearly embedded in his right shoulder; it was obviously a highly venomous barb from the tail of the Black-Scaled Dragon.

"This is... a poison stinger!"

Qingyun strode forward, his expression suddenly changing. He gently touched the poisonous thorn with his finger, and a chilling toxin instantly spread along his fingertip, causing him to gasp in shock.

"Bull Demon King, how are you?"

Jiang Chuan asked anxiously, his heart filled with worry.

The Bull Demon King struggled to open his eyes, forcing a bitter smile despite the excruciating pain: "Don't worry about me, hurry... hurry and find a way to deal with that beast, or we're all doomed..."

"But your poison..."

"The poison can be cured, but if we let that black-scaled dragon continue to run rampant, we will all perish."

The Bull Demon King, panting, had a determined glint in his eyes. "You must find a way to defeat it!"

They understood that their primary task at this moment was to stop the Black-Scaled Flood Dragon, otherwise the Bull Demon King's sacrifice would be meaningless.

They exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing determination and resilience.

"Bull Demon King, hold on!"

Jiang Chuan said in a deep voice, then turned to the crowd, "We can no longer fight alone; we must concentrate all our forces to fight against the Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon!"

Qingyun and Shen Jing nodded in response, and the three of them quickly formed a circle, each releasing their strongest ice-attribute spiritual power to create a huge ice element vortex that enveloped them.

At the same time, Jiang Chuan activated the glacier formation he had prepared beforehand. The formation flashed with light, instantly merging the power of the three of them together, transforming it into a dazzling beam of ice-blue light that pointed directly at the Black Scale Fierce Dragon.

"Black-scaled Fierce Dragon, take this!"

Jiang Chuan roared, and the three of them worked together to shoot the icy blue beam of light at the black-scaled dragon.

The black-scaled dragon sensed this powerful energy, strong enough to threaten its life, and a hint of surprise flashed in its eyes.

But it did not back down; instead, it became even angrier, letting out a deafening roar as lightning surged around it, preparing to meet this unprecedented challenge.

"boom--"

The icy blue beam of light collided with the lightning of the black-scaled dragon, instantly triggering a massive explosion.

Ice shards and lightning flashed, and the cold wind and heat waves intertwined, creating a magnificent yet terrifying scene.

The surrounding ice surface cracked and collapsed under the impact of the shock wave.

As the smoke and dust cleared, the figure of the black-scaled dragon gradually came into view.

Despite the numerous scorch marks on its body, the luminous scale that was supposed to be a weak point remained intact, and the lightning around it was even more intense, as if telling everyone that it had not suffered a fatal blow.

"How could this be?"

Shen Jing watched this scene in shock. He gripped his longsword tightly, and the sense of defeat in his heart almost suffocated him.

"It seems that the scale is not its real weakness."

Qingyun frowned, his eyes flashing with resentment and confusion.

"No, there must be a way."

Jiang Chuan's gaze was resolute. He looked at the Bull Demon King, who was still struggling in pain in the distance, and silently vowed in his heart, "We must find a way, for the Bull Demon King, for everyone!"

Just as the three were in trouble, a familiar voice suddenly rang in their ears: "I'm here too."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Li Chunfeng holding a Bagua compass, his figure flickering like a ghost behind the Black Scaled Dragon.

His eyes were cold, and a confident smile played at the corners of his lips.

"Li Chunfeng, what's your plan?" Jiang Chuan asked hurriedly.

“I’ve been observing, and that scale isn’t exactly a weak point, but…”

Before Li Chunfeng could finish speaking, the Bagua compass in his hand suddenly pointed to the back of the black-scaled dragon, "Look there!"

The three looked in the direction Li Chunfeng was pointing, and saw a faint light flickering under a scale on the back of the Black Scaled Dragon, which was very similar to the glowing scale on its abdomen earlier.

“That’s another weakness!” Li Chunfeng said confidently. “We must attack both glowing scales at the same time to really hurt it.”

"Understood!" Qingyun, Shen Jing, and Jiang Chuan said in unison, their eyes rekindling with hope.

"Qingyun, you're in charge of attacking the abdominal scales."

"Shen Jing, you're in charge of the scales on the back."

"I'll distract the Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon," Jiang Chuan quickly assigned the task.

“Okay!” Qingyun and Shen Jing agreed without hesitation. They knew this was their last chance.

"Black-scaled Fierce Dragon, prepare to die!"

Jiang Chuan shouted and charged towards the Black Scaled Dragon, brandishing his Glacier Sword, which caused the Black Scaled Dragon to roar repeatedly, its attention completely drawn to him.

"Qingyun, Shen Jing, make your move!" Jiang Chuan shouted.

Qingyun and Shen Jing instantly activated their attacks, each unleashing their strongest Frost Sword Qi and Bagua Sword Qi, aiming at the glowing scales on the belly and back of the Black Scaled Dragon, respectively, and delivering a full-force strike.

"boom--"

The two sword energies struck the target simultaneously, and the black-scaled dragon let out a mournful howl.

Its massive body trembled violently, and the two glowing scales shattered instantly. A thick black mist surged from the wound, as if it were the loss of its life force.

"Success!"

Qingyun and Shen Jing were overjoyed. They knew they had finally found the key to defeating the Black Scaled Flood Dragon.

The black-scaled dragon writhed in agony, the lightning gradually dimming, its eyes filled with fear and despair.

At this moment, it was no longer the invincible being, but a beast about to be defeated.

"Final blow!"

Jiang Chuan shouted, gathering all the power of his glaciers into a dazzling ice dragon that charged straight at the black-scaled dragon.

"Roar--"

The ice dragon let out a deafening roar, instantly piercing the heart of the black-scaled dragon and completely devouring it.

The Black-Scaled Fierce Dragon's body stiffened instantly under the impact of the Ice Dragon, and its massive body slowly sank into the icy sea, stirring up towering waves.

The once terrifying lightning had vanished without a trace, leaving only the cold seawater and the silent night sky. (End of Chapter)
