The Knight's Journey to the Empire

From the moment Butler Mark sat cross-legged on the ice floe and began to sense the water-attributed energy of the surrounding heaven and earth, to the moment this huge spiked ice cone emitting a freezing aura finally condensed.

The whole process seemed to take a long time, but in fact only about ten seconds had passed.

Therefore, in such a short period of time, from this process from nothing to something, it is enough to show how powerful the power that a pillar knight can exert is!

……

In the sky, which was at least twenty or thirty feet high, a huge spiked ice cone emitting a freezing cold air fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed under the control of Butler Mark.

The sharp cone head with a flashing cold light directly pierced through the air and headed straight for the final combat target.

And below, the [Nidhogg], which was still struggling, instantly sensed the existence of this huge spiked ice cone.

Especially the extremely sharp spiked cone head, which actually posed a deadly threat.

It could even vaguely feel that if its head was directly pierced by this sharp ice cone, it would definitely be killed.

And it was not the kind of fatal blow that killed him in one blow, but he was slowly corroded to death by the cold air carried by the sharp ice cones.

That would be an extremely painful and desperate way to die!

Then the [Nidhogg] began to struggle and roll more violently.

All the sea monster's tentacles were waving and slapping the sea surface wildly, stirring up the wind and waves frantically, trying to escape Master Oliver's control.

But how could Master Oliver let it have its way? He immediately mobilized all the remaining fighting spirit in his body and released it, transforming it into terrifying thunder force and pouring it into the ocean, firmly restraining the [Nidhogg] and not giving it any chance of escape.

Then, in this unavoidable situation, the huge and tough body of the super-class monster Nidhogg was like paper, and was directly hit by the huge spiked ice cone condensed by Butler Mark, pierced through and severely injured instantly.

But the final result is still a bit regrettable!

Because at the last critical moment, the [Nidhogg] relied on its instinctive reaction to tilt its head and dodge the fatal blow of the sharp ice cone.

So the spiked ice cone finally pierced straight through the base of the tentacles of the Nidhogg sea monster.

Under the sea, although the [Nidhogg] roared with unwillingness, it suffered such a fatal blow and could only sink towards the bottom of the sea with the irresistible power brought by the huge spiked ice cone.

At the same time, the biting cold air hidden in the sharp ice cones began to emanate, constantly eroding the huge body of the [Nidhoggr] and quickly freezing the surrounding sea water.

So when the [Nidhogg] finally sank to the bottom of the sea, the area around the base of its tentacles had already been frozen into a huge block of ice.

Of course, as a powerful super-class monster, one of the most powerful supernatural beings in the world, the Nidhogg Sea Monster has such strong vitality that it is impossible for it to die so easily.

At least behind it, the tentacles of the sea monster that were not frozen were still flapping and stirring the surrounding sea water.

It even entangled itself around a huge block of ice, trying to burst it and free itself.

But after suffering two near-fatal blows in a row, the [Nidhogg] was already at the point of being exhausted.

So how could it have the extra energy to crush this huge block of ice?

Moreover, the ice cubes made from the ice-attributed fighting spirit released by Butler Mark are not comparable to ordinary ice cubes in nature.

Not to mention the biting cold it carries, just in terms of hardness, this huge piece of spiked ice is several levels harder than the ice condensed in nature.

Therefore, with all these bugs piled up, [Nidhogg] no longer had any power to resist.

At least until this huge block of ice melts, it will definitely be suppressed here and unable to move.

As for whether it will perish, that depends on whether its existing vitality can withstand the erosion of the biting cold.

If you can resist it, there is still a glimmer of hope; if you can't resist it, then "one whale dies and all things come to life."

……

On the sea, the thunder gradually disappeared, the wind and thunder gradually subsided, and without the aftermath of the battle to stir up trouble, the sea area soon returned to a calm state.

In the sky, rays of warm sunlight broke through the clouds again and poured down, shining on people, making them feel warm as spring and extremely comfortable.

After this thrilling battle, Butler Mark and Master Oliver both felt exhausted. Whether it was their physical strength, mental strength, or fighting spirit, they all felt that they had consumed a lot.

So at this moment, they were all lying on their backs on a piece of ice in an ungraceful manner, taking a short rest.

Although they were soaked all over, the strong physique of the Pillar State Knights allowed them to resist the cold even if they lay directly on the ice, without feeling anything.

"Mark, I remember you are only in your forties or fifties now!" Master Oliver suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Yes, senior! To be precise, I am 47 years old this year!" Butler Mark replied with a slight breath.

Because the ultimate fighting skill he just released really consumed a lot of his energy, so he has not recovered yet.

"Great!" Master Oliver couldn't help but sigh: "You are so young!"

"Mark, you know what? I'm a little envious of you now!"

"Because your talent is so great! At such a young age, you have already cultivated to the professional level of a Pillar Knight, and have comprehended the natural law of ice to the entry level! In comparison, you have reached the level of cultivation that I have reached after more than a hundred years!"

"You know, when I was as young as you, I was still working hard to break through the upper knight career level!"

"Senior, you are too kind! Although I have good talent, it is not without cost to be able to cultivate to this professional level at this age!" Butler Mark said with a sigh.

"Oh?" Master Oliver exclaimed in confusion, and then he continued to ask: "I have also heard about what happened that year! Is what they said true?"

Butler Mark continued to sigh and said in a somewhat unclear voice: "True or false, real or fake, it doesn't matter now! Isn't it?"

“Hahahaha…hahahaha…” Master Oliver laughed loudly upon hearing this: “Yes! The Kingdom of Midburg has been destroyed! What’s the point of pursuing the truth of this!”

"But..." Master Oliver changed the subject and continued: "Mark, I'm still very curious, so can you tell me?"

"Just consider it as fulfilling a small wish of yours! Otherwise, I really can't understand how you can cultivate so fast!"

The world is so big, there must be geniuses, such as the "Saint of Destruction" Lord Yasin.

But when a genius appears next to you, it is not so easy to believe.

Butler Mark shook his head and chuckled, "Senior, since you already have the answer in your heart, why bother with this!"

"Besides, your questioning is just like rubbing salt into my wounds!"

"Do you really think that just because I call you 'Senior', you will treat me as someone you can easily bully?"

Upon hearing this, Master Oliver smiled knowingly and then stopped talking.

Because he already knew the answer he wanted to know.
