The seal is lifted, the legendary giant rhino.

Hearing Cao Xing's question, Bing Lan was slightly taken aback.

She seemed to realize something and said, "The Silver Sea Kingdom is in the eastern coastal region of the Eternal Frozen Sea."

"Are you going to the Eternal Frozen Sea?"

Cao Xing shook his head and said, "I don't have that plan for now, just asking around."

Hearing this, Bing Lan nodded slightly.

She didn't say anything more and had Seraphis charge into the high sky, disappearing without a trace in a moment.

After Bing Lan left, Cao Xing thought to himself, "Now, I've already sent people to search for Vortex Mountain."

"There's still no clue about the other two large-scale tasks."

"Besides these major events, there are some smaller things to do."

"For instance, head to the Diye Sha Mountain Range, find that dragon nest, and then use the Dragon Taming Reins to catch a dragonet."

"Then there's finding Hilda's Spider Queen Scepter, and after that, the Eternal Frozen Sea."

"Once the situation here is stable and I've finished the tasks at hand, I can go over and take a look."

Regarding the Eternal Frozen Sea, Cao Xing could be said to feel both awe and curiosity.

After all, that is the place where the Ancient Dragon—Zhuoma—is sealed!

However, the Ancient Dragon's power is too terrifying, and with Zhuoma having awakened, that region has become extremely dangerous.

So, Cao Xing decided not to court death for now.

"I should just find time to catch a dragon first."

"Anyway, the Diye Sha Mountain Range isn't far from here; a 5,000-kilometer trip can be done in a day."

"If I could get a dragon as a pet, that would be so cool!"

After all, Bing Lan takes Seraphis with her every time she goes out; such a powerful and fast pet makes Cao Xing incredibly envious.

He even wanted to immediately call a few people to go over and catch the dragonet.

However, it was already getting dark, and there wasn't enough time.

Cao Xing decided to wait until tomorrow to set off.

An hour later.

Ten thousand meters in the high sky, the cold wind howled.

On the back of a frost-blue dragon stood a stunningly beautiful woman in a white long robe with a cold and elegant temperament.

It was the Dragon Speaker and Seraphis.

She had already left the territory for almost a thousand kilometers and was following Cao Xing's orders, preparing to find a place to inquire about Vortex Mountain.

Just as Seraphis was passing over an untrodden ice field, Bing Lan suddenly frowned, as if she had sensed some anomaly.

She lowered her head, her deep gaze overlooking the vast ice field below.

Deep in this ice field, a massive frozen lake was vaguely visible.

And in the center of that frozen lake stood a large iceberg about a hundred meters high.

Bing Lan parted her crimson lips slightly, emitting a cold voice: "Seraphis, stop."

The massive dragon instantly folded its wings and hovered steadily in mid-air.

Seraphis tilted its dragon head, looking at the woman on its back with confusion.

Bing Lan didn't speak but continued to stare at the hundred-meter-high iceberg on the lake surface.

Following her gaze, Seraphis also looked down.

A moment later, it also seemed to discover some anomaly.

"Roar—" A low dragon roar issued from Seraphis's mouth, as if asking something.

Bing Lan shook her head and said, "I don't know what's there either, but I just feel something is wrong."

Hearing this, Seraphis also lowered its head, staring at that spot.

At first, it didn't feel any anomaly.

However, the more it looked, the more it felt something was wrong.

It felt a faint threat from that iceberg!

Upon realizing this, a look of surprise appeared in Seraphis's pupils!

You must know, it is now a Level 100 Commander Dragon, and with Cao Xing's series of blessings, it could be said to be an invincible existence below Legendary rank.

Even it felt threatened, which meant the creature below was definitely not simple!

"Roar—" A low growl issued from Seraphis's mouth.

It was asking its master if they should go down and investigate.

Bing Lan pondered for a moment and shook her head: "No need. Since it feels strange, just launch an attack."

She had always been decisive and never dragged things out.

The moment she finished speaking, the [Aurora] longsword was in her hand, and she slashed instantly!

"Swish—!"

A stunning sword aura slashed downwards, striking directly onto that iceberg.

"Boom!!!"

With a dull, booming sound, the surface of the iceberg instantly cracked, and countless fissures began to spread.

However, after slashing with this sword, there still seemed to be no movement below.

It was as if it really were just an ordinary iceberg.

Bing Lan frowned slightly, wondering in her heart: "Could it be that I sensed wrong?"

Just as she was about to take Seraphis and leave, she suddenly paused, her gaze looking downward again.

At the same time, the iceberg made a 'rumbling' sound.

From the cracks above, a heart-palpitating aura leaked out, as if some terrifying existence that had been sleeping for a long time was awakening!

Bing Lan's eyes narrowed, and she whispered: "There really is something—"

The next moment, she and Seraphis simultaneously prepared for battle.

"Rum-rum-rum"

That hundred-meter-high iceberg was still shaking violently, and the cracks on it were increasing.

Then, with a violent explosion!

The iceberg completely shattered, and huge chunks of ice scattered everywhere!

Within it, she vaguely saw a monster of immense size, even several times larger than Seraphis, standing on the ice.

The monster was covered in heavy, deep-blue scales, each one like metal forged a thousand times.

Its thick limbs were like four pillars supporting the sky.

On its head grew a single horn several meters long, its tip emitting a destructive fluctuation, as if even space were being pierced with holes by its horn.

Seeing the appearance of this monster, Bing Lan frowned slightly.

"This is—a Frost Giant Rhino?"

"How could there be such a powerful Giant Rhino?"

The strength of this monster had completely broken through the Hero limit; in other words, this was a Legendary-level fierce beast!

At the same time, the behemoth below slowly raised its head, its pair of scarlet eyes staring directly at Bing Lan and Seraphis in the air, filled with violence and rage.

"Snort—!"

As a breath of air was sprayed from its nostrils, the water vapor in front was instantly frozen, condensing into tiny ice crystals.

At this moment, Bing Lan also noticed something wrong with this Giant Rhino.

It seemed to have been forcibly sealed here by some existence, and the aura within its body had reached a near-uncontrollable level.

And Bing Lan's sword strike had been equivalent to indirectly breaking the seal for it.

However, this Giant Rhino would not be grateful to her for breaking the seal.

"Roar!!!"

With a terrifying roar, the sound wave swept over like a physical force.

The next moment, this terrifying Giant Rhino exerted force with its four limbs, and four huge deep pits instantly appeared on the ice beneath it!

Then, its massive body, like a moving mountain, charged toward Bing Lan in the air!

Legendary creatures basically all possess flight capabilities, and even this kind of beast is no exception.

This Legendary Frost Giant Rhino charged into the high sky like a cannonball; with that massive size and speed, even a hundred-meter-thick city wall would be instantly smashed to pieces!

Even Seraphis's figure swayed slightly under this impact.

However, facing the attack of the Legendary beast, both the woman and the dragon were very calm.

Until the opponent approached within a hundred meters.

At this moment, Bing Lan and Seraphis moved simultaneously!

Seraphis opened its huge mouth and violently spewed a mouthful of dragon breath filled with extreme cold!

The light sword in Bing Lan's hand instantly swung, leaving afterimages!

"Crash—!"

"Swish! Swish!"

When this woman and dragon launched their attacks, a terrifying power instantly erupted.

Even that Frost Giant Rhino felt a palpitation of the heart!

It realized that the strength of the enemies before it seemed to exceed its imagination!

However, the distance between the two sides was now so close that there was simply no room to dodge.

It could only bite the bullet and charge up.

And Seraphis's dragon breath and Bing Lan's sword aura struck simultaneously.

"Puff! Crack!"

"Boom!"

With a few cracking sounds, an explosive commotion appeared in the air!

The next moment, a behemoth, like a falling iceberg, plummeted downward at high speed.

It was that Legendary-level Frost Giant Rhino.

At this moment, its head was covered in thick frost, the effect caused by Seraphis's dragon breath.

And on its body, over a dozen terrifying sword wounds had appeared.

The heavy scales couldn't even block this kind of attack.

"Boom—!"

With a heaven-shaking loud noise.

This massive Giant Rhino slammed onto the thick ice surface, and spiderweb cracks hundreds of meters long instantly appeared all around!

Bing Lan casually swung the light sword in her hand and said indifferently, "Seraphis, go down and slay it."

As a Level 123 Legendary Dragon Speaker, coupled with her potential as a Mutant Overlord, she could truly be called invincible below the demigod level.

An enemy like this couldn't even force her to use her full strength.

"Whoosh—" Seraphis flapped its wings and dove downward like lightning.

At this moment, the Icefield Giant Rhino, which had been beaten into a daze, also felt a terrifying sense of oppression rushing towards it!

"Roar!!!" It let out a thunderous roar and quickly steadied itself.

Then, a terrifying beam of energy erupted from the single horn on its forehead, sweeping towards the person and the dragon!

This move looked quite terrifying. Even Bing Lan felt a faint sense of threat from it.

She immediately ordered, "Seraphis, dodge."

After all, as a Legendary powerhouse, she could withstand this attack head-on, but as a Tier 10 dragon, Seraphis might not be able to.

The dragon instantly halted its charge and quickly adjusted its posture.

The energy beam fired from the giant rhino's horn grazed its wings and shot thousands of meters into the sky.

Just when Bing Lan thought the giant rhino would continue its attack, she saw it suddenly lift its front hooves and stomp down hard!

"Boom!!!" With a dull, thunderous sound!

The ice layer, dozens of meters thick, shattered like glass beneath its feet, forming a huge hole.

Through the hole, one could see the flowing lake water below. "Splash. Splash—" The lake water surged, raising waves several meters high.

Then, the giant rhino leaped without hesitation, its massive body plunging directly into the lake, stirring up monstrous waves.

Its movements were very decisive; after plunging into the lake, it dove toward the depths at top speed, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Bing Lan and Seraphis were slightly stunned. They hadn't expected that this giant rhino, which appeared so ferocious and violent, would choose to escape during the battle.

And it ran so decisively, without any hesitation.

A moment later, Bing Lan stared at the lake water below and shook her head, "Let's go, it has already escaped."

"Hmm." Seraphis let out a low hum, seemingly surprised by the giant rhino's escape. Then, it turned its head and flapped its wings, flying high into the sky.

While flying, it would tilt its head from time to time to watch the lake surface below, as if still searching for the giant rhino. However, after plunging into the lake, the giant rhino never appeared again.

After waiting for a few minutes, Bing Lan had Seraphis continue flying forward.

In fact, if Bing Lan had insisted on hunting down this Icefield Giant Rhino, there was a high probability she could have killed it.

Although the environment in this large lake was complex and Bing Lan was not particularly adept at water, she could still use her Legendary power to forcibly hunt down the enemy in the water.

However, doing so would not only risk failing to catch the rhino but would also waste a significant amount of time and energy. Bing Lan was not one to invite trouble, so she simply let the giant rhino go.

At the same time, Cao Xing saw the battle notification and quickly contacted Bing Lan.

Upon learning that she had accidentally broken the seal of a Legendary Icefield Giant Rhino, he was quite surprised and even considered bringing people over to provide support immediately.

However, after hearing from Bing Lan that the giant rhino had been defeated and had dived into the water, disappearing without a trace, he abandoned the idea.

Nevertheless, Cao Xing kept it in mind, intending to send people to search for the giant rhino's whereabouts when the opportunity arose. After all, it was a Legendary beast!

Francesca had mentioned previously that she needed the blood of a Legendary beast to extract essence for refining potions, and he had been worrying about where to find such a monster!

And now, Bing Lan had discovered one. According to her description, the area where this monster appeared was not far from the territory, only about a thousand kilometers away. Cao Xing noted this information and then continued to patrol the territory.

About an hour after Bing Lan and her group left, at a location fifty kilometers from the battle site—still within the bounds of the large lake—

the ice was incredibly calm, with not a single animal in sight; only the whistling cold wind blew across it.

Suddenly, with a faint 'click' sound, fine cracks appeared on the surface of the ice. A moment later, a massive horn slowly broke through the ice.

The Icefield Giant Rhino's massive head emerged from beneath the ice, cold lake water sliding down its scales and splashing about.

Its scarlet eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, filled with vigilance and caution. After confirming there were no enemies, the Icefield Giant Rhino slowly crawled out from the ice.

Its massive body, like a moving mountain, charged toward the unknown region ahead. Time flew by, and it was already six in the evening.

The sky had completely darkened. The 2,500 workers Cao Xing had dispatched to mine returned from the various mining sites in transport vehicles and then entered the cafeteria in an orderly fashion to eat.

It is worth mentioning that due to the massive expansion of the territory's population, the previous cafeteria could no longer accommodate so many people. Therefore, Cao Xing had ordered the construction of another high-end cafeteria.

Now, the entire territory had two large cafeterias, with over a hundred staff members solely responsible for cooking. One could imagine how staggering the food consumption in Cao Xing's territory was.

"Lord, a total of 15,000 kilograms of food were consumed today, in addition to 1,000 kilograms of meat and vegetables." "Currently, our territory's food supply can last for about eight more days," the resident Dahua reported respectfully.

After listening, Cao Xing nodded slightly and replied, "I am already aware of the food situation. It will be resolved soon, so there is no need to worry."

"Yes, Lord." Dahua nodded slightly and then left the Lords Castle.

Cao Xing stood in the first-floor hall, thinking to himself, "Eight days, huh? Food consumption is indeed a major issue."

"I hope Hilton and Jess can transport a batch of food back to me as soon as possible." "Otherwise, I will have to find other solutions." Cao Xing shook his head.

He then washed up comfortably and returned to the bedroom on the second floor. Liu Muxue was currently leaning against the headboard, browsing information on the forum.

Seeing Cao Xing enter, the beauty looked up, a smile appearing on her face. "Axing, come and rest; the bed is already warmed up."

Cao Xing chuckled and nodded, "Alright."

Night fell. The two embraced, feeling each other's scorching body heat. The spacious bed was slightly disheveled, a testament to the intense battle that had just taken place.

At this moment, the beauty suddenly rolled over and sat astride Cao Xing's waist. "Haa…" Her heavy breathing turned into a wave of hot air that washed over his face and chest.

Cao Xing gripped her slender, willow-like waist, his palms feeling a warm, smooth sensation. Compared to the other women in the territory, Liu Muxue's figure might not be the most voluptuous, but it was certainly the most perfect.

Moreover, her skin was much better than the other women's; touching it felt like caressing a piece of soft jade—perhaps this was a unique advantage of Easterners.

At the same time, Cao Xing gripped her slender waist, and in an instant— "Mmm…" The sudden stimulation made Liu Muxue unable to help closing her eyes, and an indescribably charming sound escaped her lips.

She bit her lip, looking both pained and delighted. This sight only made Cao Xing want to give it his all.

Just then, Liu Muxue suddenly opened her eyes. A look of gravity appeared on her face as she said, "Wait a moment, Axing."

"What is it?" Liu Muxue said softly, "An evil aura is approaching our territory; it seems to be a demon."

"A demon?" Upon hearing this, a look of confusion appeared in Cao Xing's eyes. But soon, he understood. As a Legendary Aurora Knight who had inherited the power of angels, Liu Muxue was extremely sensitive to evil auras, allowing her to sense their approach from a great distance.
