Chapter 701: 701
Ulyssan arrived at Snowman’s location, but he failed to hit anything . It slid past, leaving behind a deep chasm .

Behind it, fireballs exploded afterward, producing bursts one after another . Klein’s somewhat stiff figure flashed about thanks to the fire . The King of the North didn’t manage to open up a gap from him as the five meters was maintained .
By the time Ulyssan came to a stop, Klein, who was still invisible, suddenly sensed something amiss . A corresponding scene appeared in his mind . He lunged forward as he clung close to the ground and appeared underneath the frost dragon .
Meanwhile, Ulyssan’s thick and powerful tail had swung over, lashing it towards the nearby Siatas and Mobet .
Whoosh!
With a loud crack, Mobet was sent flying as he dodged the frost dragon’s tail . As for Siatas, she failed to keep up . Although she had the aid of the gales to retreat and reduce the force, she had been struck in the side . The strike shattered the thick illusory scales that surfaced over her body while her ribs fractured . She was also thrown out, but thanks to the wind, she didn’t fall too hard onto the snow .
If it were Mobet or Anderson, this strike would’ve instantly killed them . Thankfully, the Storm pathway had the corresponding illusory scales to protect her . Furthermore, every Sequence advancement brought about corresponding improvements . Siatas was only heavily injured, but she didn’t lose consciousness . She didn’t even completely lose her mobility .
At that moment, Ulyssan’s neck moved as it widened its mouth, spewing out a light blue beam of light .
The beam of light swept past Snowman, freezing him into an ice sculpture . Edwina, Frunziar, and Anderson were blocked by the huge dragon’s body . They couldn’t help him in time with the use of their other Beyonder powers because of the distance .
Bang!
The frost dragon leaped up a little and turned around . When it hit the ground again, it left a slight tremor .
At that moment in time, it was clearly in a terrible state . The crack on its right shoulder was abnormally nasty . Although the frozen light blue liquid barely stopped the wound from worsening, its corresponding claw was nearly maimed and could hardly be used .
Many of the illusory scales on its body had shattered and abnormally dimmed; it was as though they had lost large amounts of vitality .
Regardless, it had severely injured and restrained three of its opponents . The situation was much better than before, especially with Groselle being seriously injured . It was no longer caught up in battle and could now attack as it wished .
Upon seeing this scene, Edwina’s light blue eyes turned black again . Sticky vile thoughts slowly flowed .
She suddenly clenched her right palm, causing Ulyssan to raise its head in a roar . It was in excruciating pain as light blue liquid flowed from the corner of its eyes and mouth .

At that moment, the only thought on the frost dragon’s mind was to purge the emotional disturbance from its Spirit Body .
Taking the opportunity, Edwina’s eyes lit up and turned extremely pure . The light of dawn around her had quickly materialized into a sword .
She wanted to play the role of a Guardian to fend off the King of the North!
She believed that Gehrman Sparrow definitely had his reasons for staying by Ulyssan’s side while being invisible . All he needed was time!
At that moment, a figure enveloped in the original light of dawn had charged at the frost dragon .
It was none other than the giant, Groselle!
His chest had sunk in . His grayish-blue skin was pale, and the broadsword in his hand had web-like cracks . However, he still bravely faced his enemy .
Groselle cleaved at his target like he was burning up his life, emitting light and warmth .
“Giants never retreat!”
Amidst his roar, Groselle parried the frost dragon’s repeated blows, and he managed to dodge the ice-blue breath in time due to its maimed front claw .
“Imprison!” Frunziar ran over and began to restrict the King of the North’s actions . Edwina also worked in tandem with him . Once Ulyssan’s rage allowed it to escape the restraints, she triggered its emotions again, allowing the restriction to continue and prevent the charge from happening again . At this moment, Anderson switched between throwing burning-white spears and fireballs . Again and again, he dealt severe damage to the frost dragon . After Mobet managed to catch his breath, he continued stealing its thoughts or powers, stopping the frost dragon’s attacks .
Ulyssan attempted to spread its wings a second time . It flew into the air a second time, sending snow flying, but with Frunziar adding another flight restriction, it could only give up when it sensed the difficulty in doing so .
Klein, who kept switching positions by its feet, gained a deeper control of its Spirit Body Threads . It had long reached the twenty-second threshold, but he failed to achieve success . This was because the King of the North’s spirituality was extremely potent!
After a while, there was a clang . Groselle’s broadsword was tainted by the frost dragon’s breath as he was struck by its claw . The former shattered completely, turning into countless fragments as they flew everywhere .
With sputtering sounds, the invisible walls in front of Groselle reached their limit as they let through several fragments that impaled his head and chest .

Frunziar, who was similarly nearby, failed to dodge in time . The side of his armor collided with the fragments as his side was mangled .
“Giants never retreat!”
Groselle roared loudly once again . The light of dawn radiated from him once again as a sword made of pure light appeared in his palm .
As the dark red blood on his face flowed, he parried the frost dragon’s strike .
At that moment, Klein was flicking the Spirit Body Threads before he finally saw the opportunity to achieve initial control .
Three seconds! Two seconds! One second!
Ulyssan’s actions instantly froze as all its joints seemed to grow rust .
The frost dragon immediately became alert and sensed that the source of the danger came from beneath it . Seizing the moment before its thoughts came to a complete halt, it instantly made the decision to sit down .
It wanted to quash the despicable fella!
Suddenly, its mind went adrift, having forgotten what it wanted to do . And about twenty meters away, Mobet Zoroast’s knees buckled as he sat strangely on the snow .
Klein took the opportunity to move his feet, walking to the side of the frost dragon’s hind legs at a decent speed .
His invisibility was beginning to wear off . After all, the mimicked ability definitely couldn’t compare with the original . He extended his hands halfway as his spirituality jumped, his actions akin to controlling a huge puppet .
Bang!
Ulyssan, whose thoughts were already slowing down, finally recalled what it wanted to do . Its hind legs slowly bent as its hefty figure smashed downwards, but all it did was send snow and dust flying .
No… No good… Have to… do that… Thoughts flashed through its mind sporadically as its heart suddenly contracted, condensing a terrifying light blue halo .

This was the Beyonder power stemming from its life . It could create a cold hell . With this, Klein and company would completely freeze . If not for Snowman’s experience and powers being capable of restraining that state, more than one or two Beyonders would’ve died .
However, with it under Klein’s control, everything Ulyssan tried to do was clearly impeded . Edwina acutely noticed the source of danger which she previously had no idea about . Immediately, she clenched her right fist, detonating the frost dragon’s strong emotions .
The King of the North’s figure trembled in slow motion as the light blue halo that it had just converged scattered out of control . It failed to interfere with its environment .
“… Ah…”
The frost dragon’s mouth slowly opened as it let out a stuttering cry .
Siatas stood up with great difficulty the moment she recovered a little . Upon seeing the situation, she immediately held back her pain and drew her bow .
Her hair flared up again as heavy dark clouds appeared in midair once again . Two different silver bolts of lightning added radiance to each other as they surged onto the bow, forming a terrifying arrow that swirled with a bolt of lightning .
Siatas’s face twisted as she released the arrow .
The silver bolt of lightning instantly penetrated Ulyssan’s chest with a whoosh, tearing open a ghastly wound . Flames spewed and lightning bolts sparked inside its wound, causing greater damage .
At that moment, Anderson’s eyes lit up . A blazing white flame enveloped his body as he transformed into a stream of light, accurately shooting straight for the wound .
Pitch-black marks rapidly surfaced on the frost dragon’s abdomen as though someone was scribbling over it . Ulyssan’s thoughts weren’t as slow due to the intense stimulation . As it struggled to flap its wings, it soared up into the sky .
“Flying is prohibited here!” Frunziar added more restrictions in a timely manner .
Bang!
King of the North fell to the ground again as its pitch-black marks on its abdomen tore open . Light blue blood and damaged organs spewed out like a waterfall .
Anderson took the opportunity to jump away from the dragon’s body . The flames over his body had extinguished as a transparent layer of ice covered him .
“Cold… It’s really cold . ” He held Death Brachydont as he stiffly jumped away . His body was constantly trembling .
Klein, who had nearly allowed the frost dragon to escape his binding, achieved initial control again . He made Ulyssan’s thoughts of making everyone present die with it slow down as it suffered from theft and explosions .
Its long neck slowly looked up as it let out a slow whimper as its body collapsed bit by bit .
During this process, Klein didn’t attempt to stop Siatas and company’s continued attacks . He knew very well that to turn the frost dragon into a marionette needed far more than five minutes . There were too many accidents that could happen in that span of time .
Frunziar stood straight while panting . With the side of his body mangled, he pushed forward his swordless palm and declared in ancient Hermes, “Death!”
Ulyssan’s body trembled as it collapsed to the ground like a small mountain made of ice .
Light-blue light that was nearly white was released from its body as its flesh and body quickly disintegrated . Soon, the gigantic dragon corpse turned into a snow-laden heavy door that swung outwards .
Without anyone mentioning it, all the Beyonders present knew that it was a door leading to the outside world .
“Finally… Finally… Success…” Groselle laughed out loud as his voice grew softer .
Thud!
His nearly four-meter-tall figure fell forward as he held himself up with a knee . Following that, the light of dawn around him scattered as his aura was almost immediately gone .
“Groselle!” Siatas and company went over with great difficulty or great speed .
Groselle looked around him slowly, clenching his fist as he gave a good-natured laugh .
“We succeeded!
“Giants never retreat…”
His head with the single vertical eye drooped down when his voice came to a halt .
