The Fire & Ice Emperor
Serpent Guard

“How long has the snake been here? If it's been decades, it's not a problem. But what if it turns out to be hundreds of years old. That's what's becoming a little dangerous.”

It's like that. It all corresponds to what the inner Altair is that it is quite dangerous if the lifespan of the snake is much longer. As the longer the elementalist beast lived, the stronger it would also become.

That was all possible because each elemental beast would increase their strength if it ate another elemental beast core. Even an elemental beast tiller can have an increased size when getting energy intake from elemental beasts.

However there were some absolute or absolute laws of nature where each elemental beast had to swallow an elemental beast core that had the same element. And it could not be denied anymore or the consequences of chakra in the body of the elemental beast would clash and experience a disturbance that would be fatal to the animal itself.

For example, the snake that Altair would encounter had the element of lightning. Then the snake is required to swallow the nucleus of another animal that has the same element. It did not matter if the snake ate the flesh of an elemental beast that had a different elemental beast. It's just that abstinence when swallowing the nucleus of a different elemental beast.

“Huh, this cave looks so beautiful. But a little quiet.” Her speech.

Alta felt quite relieved when she could rest. So he went back on his way without trying to think of something that made him at all uncomfortable.

Such is. He has to be quick. He also did not know how things were going outside.

“Why is it suddenly a little crowded here?”

Alta's breathing began to pant as she got deeper and deeper inside. He was breathing normally, but somehow he couldn't breathe comfortably enough. He thought for a moment, as he continued walking while being accompanied by flames which created a silhouette of his own shadow.

Laap!

And then the torch held by Alta was extinguished. It makes him a little freaked out about why the fire went out? At first he took out his own fire to light a torch. However, the torch was unable to light up.

“Oxygen! I just realized there's no oxygen in here! Huh, it just deserves to feel tight. Shit!”

Alta tried to calm down. If he moves too much then he will also get tired faster and very bad for himself. So he walked quietly while using his own fire as lighting.

It was just that he took it out dimly and vaguely. He doesn't know if it turns out he will fight something later and instead he lacks chakra.

“But it shouldn't be around here right? the snake will not be able to live in a place without oxygen.” Alta said to herself.

In the deepening darkness of the cave, Altair continued walking. He had to remain cautious, as he did not know what he was going to meet there. The possibility of encountering the guardian snake made his heart thump, but his determination to save Yasmine made him undaunted.

A moment later, he felt that something was moving in the shadows. Altair looked back, but there was nothing. "Maybe it's just my feeling" she said inwardly, trying to calm herself down.

As he reached a bend in the cave that was rising sharply, Altair heard a rumbling sound. Apparently, in front of him, there was a tunnel leading downwards. Altair hesitated, should it continue its journey downwards or should it be straight forward?

But, it seems impossible is the road to the bottom? The surface is above.

However, amidst the anxiety, suddenly the sound of a snake sounded hissing. Altair turned his head, and in front of him was a pair of glowing eyes looking at him sharply. That guardian snake is really here!

The snake slid slowly towards Altair, ready to attack.

“Fire: Basilisk fire!”

Quickly, Altair took out a fire from his hand and formed a fire basilisk which was to drive away the snake. However, the snake easily dodged his attack.

"You're quite agile, huh?" altair said, amazed at the speed of the snake. "But I won't just give up!"

Altair's breathing returned to normal, calming him down after realizing there was an oxygen supply in the cave. His mind began to guess, is this cave close to the surface or maybe there are plants that provide oxygen in it?

But the problem is that he has to deal with a snake figure that is quite troublesome. Moreover, a fairly narrow place that is actually quite troublesome. Although it is not a problem because it is not Alta if she gives up easily.

The snake hissed, spitting out a liquid coming out of its mouth. And it was poison, which Altair knew was poison. The power of snakes is poison.

Alta pushed her hand, a blaze filled the area of the cave where she was fighting. Eliminating the sprayed poison until he could sigh with enough relief as the poison evaporated.

Instead, the bursts or blazes that Alta released kept darting while the poison was gone. A smile of satisfaction on his face.

But, the spray of water from the snake's mouth made Alta still freeze. And it was also the burst that clearly extinguished the flames according to its laws. In addition, the blast also shot towards Altair so that Altair pushed back while hitting the cave.

Alta hit, her spine hurt a little. And he kept it in check by trying to stay upright without any problems. Now all he focused on was how to attack the snake.

Yes it is simple if it can not use the fire element, then he must use the ice element according to what he has. Water does not necessarily win against fire, and fire can also win. It all depends on who is using and how competent he is in mastering the elements.

And Alta is unfortunately not naive in that she does not want to waste too much time and force herself to use the fire element even though she knows the second rule that all elements depend on who holds it.

The snake again shot towards Alta. It was as if he was about to attack using his head where he opened his mouth wide while showing his snake-type canine teeth.

“Es: Ice wall!”

Alta clapped her hands together. The ice wall was created before the snake touched Alta. As a result, the snake foolishly hit an ice wall that Alta created to make Alta feel happy.

The snake hissed and let out a powerful roar. The ice wall instantly shattered due to the strong tremor of the cave. But on the other hand the snake also felt really dizzy from the impact.

While Alta had tried to keep her distance since then because otherwise it would be very dangerous. Even so, he was still not going anywhere or in a hurry to get out because he had to finish his fight.

The snake felt quite furious, instantly a burst from his mouth created a flood to likely fill the contents of the cave.

And Alta remained calm.
