Ice covered the depths of the Beast Valley. Around a thousand meters of space was frozen cold. As warriors entered the valley, piercing cold would welcome them.

Zachary and Joan cautiously navigated the frozen area.

"It wasn't this cold earlier. The temperature only dropped as soon as we entered this place," Zachary complained. In fact, he was not cold at all, but to conceal his true strength from Joan, he was forced to maximize his protective martial energy to resist the cold like she did.

"That's why I'm asking you to join me. Even if I find the beast with the ice element on my own, I won't be able to deal with it in such cold," Joan explained.

"But it seems that other disciples of King Level have also come here." At that moment, Zachary became aware of the auras around him. The disciples of King Level were approaching.

"Luck is our best bet here. The beast we are looking for might even have power that prevents it from being discovered. Otherwise, it would have already been found," Joan said.

"Just like the Hundred-Treasure Beast." Zachary was no stranger to the power of treasure beasts.

"Any ideas?" Joan turned to look at Zachary and waited for an answer. She knew he was a man of great ability, so she decided to work with him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been powerful enough to defeat the Hundred-Treasure Beast alone.

"Yes, but I have to leave now," Zachary answered.

"Where are you going?" Joan looked at him with puzzled eyes.

"Nature's calling," Zachary answered with a shy smile.

"Alright, go ahead!" She rolled his eyes at Zachary.

Then Zachary disappeared.

He entered the system.

"Mimi, check whether the treasure beast is in this area," Zachary instructed.

"Checking..."

A huge screen flashed in front of Zachary. On it, the one-thousand-meter area was displayed. Red dots blinked on the screen.

Then, t

ened it. Then, he floated to the stone mountain using Shadow Pace.

"Hey, where are you going?" Joan screamed as she followed Zachary promptly.

Zachary's speed surprised Joan. He was agile and swift, and Joan was barely keeping up.

After some exploration, Zachary went down the mountain. After a short while, Joan also returned. "What's wrong with you?" she asked in between short breaths. "Are you trying to make fun of me?"

Zachary gestured for her to keep quiet.

Joan was stunned then did as ordered.

Then, a strange noise came from the stone mountain. It was as if the mountain was about to break. Suddenly, ice wind blew fiercely and cold air surged like a tide. Zachary and Joan found themselves amid a thick ice fog.

Bang!

A loud noise came from behind the stone mountain. Suddenly, the two felt a violent chill rushed over from the stone mountain at an amazing speed.

In an instant, a giant ice lion with a tiger head stood fiercely at the peak of the stone mountain. It roared a loud and majestic roar.

"The Ice Liger! It's the treasure beast that we're looking for!" Joan looked at it with admiration. She couldn't believe it. They had actually found the scarce treasure beast with the ice element in the Beast Valley.
