The Glory of Noxus

Freljord, deep in the Ironthorn Mountains.

Thick ice fog covered the sky, as if falling into the abyss, and a heavy and dark sense of oppression came over him.

Huo Jixing looked around with a solemn expression.

With the help of the breath deep in the soul of the hunting lord, he came here to find the trace of Volibear.

But after stepping into this area, he keenly noticed that the surrounding environment was a little abnormal.

Although the long mountains were covered with layers of ice and snow, they did not look like the ice wasteland before.

It gave him a dark feeling, more like the underworld, with cold winds sweeping and the sounds of ghosts and wolves howling.

Huo Jixing exhaled lightly to calm his inner anxiety, looking at the jagged rocks in the distance, his eyes flickering.

In his red-gold vision, many clouds intertwined and rose, covering the sky.

There were ordinary bear monsters, out-of-control beast spirit walkers, and deep purple thunder and lightning.

"The breath of Volibear!"

Huo Jixing no longer hesitated, and the wings of dancing in the sky behind him spread out, and the fire of Nanli rolled back, burning the cold wind in the clouds.

The next moment!

The endless snow-capped mountains flashed before his eyes, and Huo Jixing was like a flaming meteor, crossing the sky and rushing straight to the location of the clouds.

After a while!

He appeared on the top of the towering mountain, and a sunken basin came into view.

The basin was in the shape of a huge bowl, surrounded by towering peaks, like a mysterious forbidden place.

The dark and cold clouds, like dark gray silk cloth covering the sky above the basin, scattered snowflakes danced with the wind, stirring the world.

In the rugged basin, the bear monsters all over the mountains were swimming around.

Huo Jixing looked from afar, and wherever he could see, the bear monsters were endless, like a black ocean with waves rising in the basin.

In the center of the basin, a towering mountain that reaches the sky and penetrates the clouds rises from the ground.

The top of the mountain is covered by thick clouds, as if connected to the sky.

On the top of the mountain, thunder and lightning continue to roar, and the deafening roar sweeps across the basin.

In the thunder and lightning, Huo Jixing can vaguely see a hazy giant bear figure looming on the top of the mountain.

It is Volibear's consciousness!

Huo Jixing's pupils constricted, and he instantly recognized the identity of the giant bear figure.

Then, his eyes moved away and swept around the basin.

I saw countless flesh and blood being carried by the bear monsters, like rivers of life, flowing to the towering mountain in the center of the basin.

Many flesh and blood smells gathered together, and the fishy smell filled the surroundings, making it almost impossible to breathe.

However, this fishy smell was bound by an invisible force and firmly controlled in the basin, without a trace of leakage.

"Such a huge rune array?" Huo Jixing looked surprised.

After observation, he clearly felt the majestic magic power contained in the basin.

It was very similar to the previous sacrificial array.

It was just that the sacrificial array in the basin was obviously much more sophisticated, and the coverage area exceeded all the previous sacrificial arrays.

It was precisely because of the existence of the sacrificial array.

The flesh and blood carried by the bear monsters were transformed into invisible energy and poured into the central mountain, nourishing Volibear's consciousness.

Huo Jixing looked at the giant bear figure perched above the clouds, and a touch of red-gold flames ignited beside him, like the sunlight in the morning light, foreshadowing the coming storm.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

In the dark and cold basin, the violent red-gold flames rushed straight into the sky, ushering in the dawn glow of winter.

Starting with Huo Jixing, the fire of Nanli poured like molten magma, instantly rushing towards the basin and the bear monsters.

Wherever the Nanli Fire went, the ice and snow melted quickly, and the rocks turned to ashes.

The dark basin was faintly reshaped in this raging fire.

The unprepared bear monsters looked at the flames that appeared out of thin air, waved their claws, and roared.

It seemed that they wanted to use their flesh and blood to stop the burning of the Nanli Fire and protect the mountain in the center.

The black ocean went forward one after another, fearlessly facing the pouring red-gold flames.

However, in front of this blazing flame, even the most powerful bear monster seemed so small.

As soon as it came into contact, the turbid and filthy black ocean was instantly cleared, revealing the cracked ground.

Then, silent destruction came, and the smoldering ashes swept the basin and the sky under his feet with the cold wind.

Huo Jixing stepped on the flames and slowly walked towards the mountain in the center.

Perhaps he noticed the abnormality of the basin, or perhaps he felt the threat brought by Huo Jixing.

On the dark clouds, the sound of thunder and lightning roared, as if the end of the world had come, covering the basin.

These raging thunder and lightning, like the hands of the devil, crossed the basin, ready to wipe out all outsiders.

Huo Jixing looked at the thunder and lightning on the dome that brought terrifying power, and continued to walk towards the mountains that reached the sky without stopping.

Along the way, the bear monsters melted under the burning of the Nanli Fire.

Even the out-of-control beast spirit walkers were just bigger waves, and could not stop Huo Jixing's steps at all.

As he went deeper, Huo Jixing looked at the mountains that were getting closer and closer, and smelled a hint of danger.

Behind him, the red-gold flames gradually condensed, and the Nanli Vermillion Bird appeared, with its wings spread to sweep away the cold wind and ashes.

However, before he set foot in the most central mountain area.

In the dim environment, a faint blue light suddenly lit up, as if a huge shadow was approaching.

"What is this.!?"

Huo Jixing frowned, and his red-gold eyes penetrated the fog and saw a monster hundreds of feet tall coming towards him.

The monster looked like a goat, with two solid gray horns on its head and dark gray fur on its body, resisting the cold winter wind.

The faint blue glow was emitted from the eyes of the goat monster, and the breath of destruction lingered in its pupils.

"The Sorrowful Beast?"

Huo Jixing's tone was a little uncertain, as if he recognized the identity of the goat monster.

He had seen information about the Sorrowful Beast when reading the [Yunyou Atlas].

The Sorrowful Beast resembled a goat, usually active in the depths of Freljord, and was synonymous with destruction.

Because when it moves, it will destroy all life it encounters.

There are many tribes in Freljord that directly exterminate the tribe when the Sorrowful Beast is active, which has created the terrifying reputation of the Sorrowful Beast.

Huo Jixing glanced at the Sorrowful Beast walking in front of him, and his eyes lingered on its dark gray fur.

Black liquid!

"Has such a big guy also been contaminated by Volibear's consciousness?" Huo Jixing thought secretly.

Boom! Boom!

The Sorrowful Beast slowly approached, and each step forward was accompanied by heavy footsteps.

Its dark blue eyes revealed calmness and coldness, as if it wanted to destroy all obstacles in front of it.

The fire of Nanli was wrapped in high temperature and rushed in. The intention was simple, to burn the Sorrowful Beast directly.

"Woo woo!"

The Sorrowful Beast stopped, and its dark blue eyes overlooked the red-gold flames surging under its feet.

It opened its mouth and hummed, and the majestic magic energy quietly condensed in its eyes, and the breath of destruction descended.

[Sorrowful Tribulation]!

The sudden piercing scream shook the rocks in the basin, and the dark blue light that suddenly appeared was like a world-destroying divine punishment, bombarding the Nanli Fire with endless destruction.

For a moment!

In the silent basin, the dark blue light filled the field of vision, and the terrifying energy annihilated the Nanli Fire.

The Ai Nanxing Beast, which was polluted by consciousness, exerted all its strength, and seemed to have successfully curbed the surging momentum of the Nanli Fire.

But before the Ai Nanxing Beast could continue to move forward.

Clang!

Behind Huo Jixing, the Nanli Vermillion Bird raised its head and cried, soaring into the sky, passing through the clouds, and pounced on the Ai Nanxing Beast.

Compared with the Ai Nanxing Beast's hundreds of feet tall body, the Nanli Vermillion Bird was much smaller, but it had a mighty power that crushed the Ai Nanxing Beast.

The red-gold flames swept across, and the space in the ice and snow basin could not withstand the power of the Nanli Vermillion Bird, and it trembled.

The Ai Nanxing Beast's performance was more realistic.

It looked up at the Nanli Fire falling from the sky, and the dark blue light in its eyes almost dissipated.

Crack! Crack!

Puff!

The Nanli Suzaku extended its red-gold claws, crushed the gray horns of the Ainanxing Beast, and pierced its head.

The black liquid and dark blue blood sprayed like fuel, causing the Nanli Fire, which should have stagnated, to spit out flames several feet high.

Boom!

The Ainanxing Beast fell to the ground, splashing countless ashes and snowflakes, crushing the nearby bear monsters to death.

"It's strong, almost legendary, but unfortunately, it only has the instincts of a beast."

Huo Jixing looked at the Ainanxing Beast that fell in the Nanli Fire and made an evaluation.

If such a guy appeared on the northern border of the Noxus Empire, no matter how many war groups there were, they would not be able to stop its progress.

Huo Jixing did not stop and prepared to continue moving towards the mountain in the center.

However, to his surprise, the danger of this basin was far more than just the Ainanxing Beast.

In front, the corpse of the Ainanxing beast had not been completely burned, and the valleys and hills were gradually lit up with blue light.

Huo Jixing stopped and looked at the many huge monsters that appeared in his field of vision, with a solemn expression.

Looking closely, there were almost six terrifying monsters that were comparable to the Ainanxing beast.

"Something is wrong!"

The power of the old god Volibear was thunder and lightning, and it was destructive wildness.

Although his consciousness could pollute countless bear monsters and Freljord creatures.

But he, who had not yet fully recovered, could never pollute and erode so many terrifying monsters like the Ainanxing beast.

After all, these terrifying monsters that survived from ancient times have extremely powerful powers.

Some of the ancient guys were even in the same period as Volibear.

Huo Jixing's consciousness moved, as if his mind trembled slightly.

The sacred bird Suzaku, which drove the Nanli Fire, took off as ordered and rushed to the sky, dragging a long trail of flames behind him.

Instantly!

The South Li Suzaku soared in the sky, and the flaming wings covering the sky and the earth were fully stretched out.

Each feather seemed to be woven from pure flames, emitting dazzling light and scorching temperature, making the sky stained with a layer of red-gold brilliance.

As this spectacular scene was staged, the originally dim and cold atmosphere suddenly dissipated.

Instead, it was replaced by rolling heat waves, sweeping across the four directions like a tide.

From a distance, the South Li Suzaku was like the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, and the blazing light dispelled the darkness and illuminated the earth.

Huo Jixing took this opportunity to observe the many huge monsters walking in the distance, and noticed that they were different from the Ai Nan Xing beast.

These huge monsters were faintly engraved with complex runes and patterns on their bodies.

The body was surrounded by a bone-chilling cold aura, ignoring the high temperature of the Nanli Fire, and condensed into layers of ice mist.

"Runes? Ice?" Huo Jixing thought to himself.

"What kind of strange combination is this?"

Suddenly, Huo Jixing had a flash of inspiration and thought of the special extraordinary people in the Freljord.

Iceborn Warriors!

"Could it be that these terrifying monsters have the power of ice blood?"

"No, that's not right!"

"It should be that the power of ice blood may come from these terrifying monsters."

Huo Jixing looked at the increasingly approaching behemoths and was very curious about the power of the old god Volibear.

Does the engraver of Freljord really have the power to pollute the ancient beasts?

Just as Huo Jixing was thinking, thunder roared from the distant mountains.

The originally hazy figure of the Thunder Bear gradually solidified, and the many compound eyes were filled with chaos and killing.

Obviously, the noise made by Huo Jixing had aroused Volibear's anger.

Even though he had not yet fully recovered, he would use his thunder and lightning power to teach Huo Jixing a profound lesson.

However, Huo Jixing only glanced at the Thunder Bear in the distance, and his attention was still on the many monsters coming.

He always felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

[Suzaku·Nanli Fire]!

Huo Jixing once again ordered the Nanli Suzaku hanging high in the sky to swoop down on the terrifying monsters below.

The red-gold flames surged, and the Nanli Suzaku was wrapped in a rain of fire, completely igniting the valley basin.

The terrifying monsters below were in various shapes, some like giant spiders, and some like twisted human figures.

Their bodies were surrounded by a cold breath, freezing everything they encountered.

But under the impact of the Nanli Suzaku, they were so fragile.

The pouring Nanli Fire intertwined with the coldness on the surface of the terrifying monsters, instantly generating a large amount of white steam, filling the valley and covering the situation of the battle.

But Huo Jixing could clearly see the situation of the battle between the two sides.

Nanli Suzaku was the materialized divine bird he got after opening the Suzaku Star Map.

It was far beyond the ability of these terrifying monsters to resist.

Under the attack of Nanli Suzaku, the terrifying monsters were left with hideous scars deep enough to see the bones.

The Nanli fire left on the wounds burned along the flesh and blood, devouring the life breath of the terrifying monsters.

When the battle was over, Nanli Suzaku was still hanging high above the sky, with flames lingering between its wings, like an inviolable god.

Most of those terrifying monsters fell to the ground, their bodies charred and their breath of life lost.

The only twisted humanoid monster with a breath of life, which was lingering on, was left by Huo Jixing on purpose.

Huo Jixing walked over and came to the top of the twisted humanoid monster's head, looking at the dark blue runes engraved on its face.

Wow!

Huo Jixing used his hand as a knife to cut open the head of the twisted humanoid monster, and saw the black liquid flowing out and the unique power of the Iceborn.

"Hmm, wait!?"

"Is this power the power of the void?"
