I regressed and became the Sword Ice King-Chapter 201 - - Trip to the East 20
A ripple effect caused by the shockwave swept through the Rocky peak casting tall Rocky mountains to crumble to the ground. An updraft was created, causing chunks of earth and sand to fly into the air while Raph struggled to keep his feet on the ground.
His sword was stabbed into the earth, and his body was enveloped in a concentrated aura. His muscles throbbed in pain under the weight of the strong wind and shockwave that was sent throughout the Rocky Peak but his will kept him on hold, preventing him from letting the wind pick him up with the rest of the rubble.
His mind was set on the fight and searched for a constant pathway that led to victory. It didn’t matter how small, what mattered was that it was there.
’Crazy demon. You think this is enough h to stop me?’ He wondered as a slight chuckle escaped his lips.
He could hear the sound of giggling approaching him and the heavy footsteps of the demon as it closed the gap between them.
It was approaching, and steadily so. ’So what now?’ He wondered as he felt the energy within his body slowly fading. He was running out of time and he was stuck with a demon, so his mind constantly wavered, trying to find a fix for the situation. ’If I knew this was going to happen, I would have taken a sealing scroll…or better still, a sealing crystal’.
Sealing artifacts existed, but the use of such was mostly planned and never came as a result of unexpected circumstances, as this was a period when demons weren’t at their all-time high.
The heavy footsteps came to a halt, and once again, he felt the demon hovering over him, its gaze fixed on him like he was its prey. The feeling sent a shiver down his spine and became a strong reminder of his weakness.
’Let’s….Let’s still try’. He thought before slowly stretching his right hand forward.
The 9th star represented Resonance, and the method of using his mana circles and aura stars in perfect harmony involved a form of resonance. When one looks at it, one realizes he had been using the state of the 9th star before he became a master.
Resonance involved imbuing aura into the physical, and causing phenomenons with it after entering a state of oneness with the atmosphere.
It was a form of connecting with nature and affecting it using your aura, your will, and your perception of reality.
This was what the 9th star represented, Resonance.
Raph’s body suddenly glowed bright blue, as his aura grew concentrated in its manifestation. It looked like his body was caught on fire, blue fire, but this was simply a second form of aura, this was Soul Aura.
At the moment, his stars vibrated rigorously and his circles spun tenaciously. His body felt like it was crumbling from within, but a newfound energy and power was seeping through him slowly, and as it did, came an understanding of the 9th star.
A beam of blue light ignited within his diatian, next to his right stars and it slowly began to take shape, growing and strengthening itself in the process.
While this occurred, Raph’s focus was on his next attack, and his mind had nearly gone blank to fulfill this focus. ’.....Yeah, just like that. Concentrate it more, more…..’.
His body began to crackle as a cold energy exuded from it in large amounts, growing by the second. The atmosphere around him began to freeze, turning into particles of ice that fell like rain. The ground crackled and broke to the intensity of the cold that permeated through its hardened Rocky surface like water and turned its molecules into ice.
Soon the ground began to turn to ice, breaking and cracking under the weight of the demon and his feet, while the temperature of the atmosphere continued to drop.
Soon, a fog of ice crystals formed around him and spread throughout the crater-like cancer, dropping the temperature further to a level that soon reached -100 degrees Celsius.
The cold had become cancerous and spread throughout the crater, reaching the Rocky Peaks and turning the dried sand and rocks into shards and crystals of ice. It was like the climate of a specific part of the Eastern Peak had been changed entirely into its opposite. A cold wasteland
While this occurred, the demon loomed over him, its gaze brimming in the blue, cold fog while its lips curled into a tight grin, revealing its rows of canine teeth. Demons were creatures that existed in a world of diverse and intensified climate changes. Of course, their adaptability mattered when it came to climate, and their adaptability was measured by their strength.
As a 7th-tier Grand Demon, standing at the pinnacle of demons. This meant nothing.

The demon giggled as a cold breath was exuded from its lips. It raised its right limb and descended it towards Raph in the blink of an eye, but at that moment, he was finally ready. ’Well, this is everything I’ve got’.
"Everything is Ice; Absolute Zero".
The atmosphere fell silent, and the cold chill dispersed into nothingness. Instead, the ground shattered into tiny pieces of ice-like glass, causing Raph, who was out of energy, to fall into its embrace.
The demon, which was caught in the brunt of the attack slowly descended into the ground as it caved in to its weight. Brittle ice formed on its body, and its skin was turned into pieces of ice crystals, but alas, it still smiled, and it was still very much alive. Though not without losing three of its limbs and a good chunk of his abdomen that had shattered into ice. But sadly enough, they were regenerating, filling the cold emptiness with warm blood.

The demon spun around while they fell as soon as it felt its limbs regenerate and grabbed the near-unconscious body of Raph before jumping out of the pitfall with its brute strength, using the pieces of ice shards as leverage.
Its body swung into the air and crashed down, almost four hundred kilometers away from the pitfall caused by Raph’s ice.
It slammed Raph into the icy floor, causing him to cough out blood as he banged on the hard surface. He had become too weary to fight back.
’Shit’ he cursed as the demon loomed over him which caused a smile to force its way on his lips as he felt the pain of being too weak to fight back. ’.....this is embarrassing. Am I dying this way, today?’ He wondered as the demon raised its hands in the air and swung it down towards him.
His vision had nearly turned blurry, but he could see the giant arms coming towards him like a hammer of death, ready to give judgment to his soul. ’Fuck…..you got to be kidding me’. He thought as he closed his eyes, giving in to his fate, or so he thought until an ear-piercing howl shook them both.
"HOOOWLLLLL!!!"
Like the sound of an angel’s trumpet, his eyes snapped open while the demon glanced around in search of the cause, ignoring Raph’s presence for a moment, but that was all he needed.
Raph didn’t need to think twice, as he used whatever energy he had left to get to his feet and run from the demon. ’This isn’t a battle I could have won,’ he thought in bitter realization, when the demon suddenly roared and charged after him, closing the distance before he could even make a proper distance between them.
The demon was about to strike him away when the loud howl pierced him into a halt, causing it to search around in confusion. At that moment, the wind peaked up around Raph, taking the shape of a Portal, and in the blink of an eye, a black wolf, the size of a bus emerged from it.
It growled ferociously as it grabbed Raph by his collar using its mouth and jumped into another wind that took the shape of a portal.
The demon snapped towards the direction in surprise and confusion as it searched for its prey, but sadly, it couldn’t.
Crying out in anger, it slammed its feet on the ground in a tantrum, causing a wave of shock to spread across the iced ground and making the whole 400-meter diameter cave in.
It slammed itself on the shattering floor as it cried, and wailed with a distorted baby tone, causing a disaster. It began to descend into the ground as it did so and continued to wail at the loss of its prey. Crying and muttering distorted baby sounds while red tears streamed down its juvenile face.
The shockwave from its tantrum quickly spread throughout Rocky Peak as mountains fell and iced surfaces caved in, forming a large pit in the terrain.
As it did so, a wolf jumped out from a gust of wind and flung Raph over its back before increasing its pace as the ground beneath it collapsed and shattered into ice shards.
Raph sat up in confusion, placed his hands on the giant wolf, and simply stayed still as it attempted to escape the disaster that followed them persistently.
He had nearly given in to the direction of the wolf when his thoughts snapped at him. "Rodrick and Colyn! Hold on, I left them behind!" he muttered when the wolf suddenly spoke.
"Be calm, husband. I have already taken their unconscious body to where it is safe, now it is time for us to escape".
For a moment, he felt like he could finally relax. Mountain Babies tend to fall asleep on their own after a tantrum, and it was on a tantrum because of his escape. Luckily, he didn’t need to worry about them being chased, but at that moment, his eyes snapped into realization for a different reason. ’Husband??!’ he thought, before crying out in shock.
"ELSIEEE??"
