Chapter 35 Not a match
"That's easy for you to say. Do you really think that ice demon is an ordinary monster? A slight mistake could lead to your demise here. Don't drag us down with you."
Linghu Xuan curled his lips, somewhat speechless. He wasn't going to throw himself away here for no reason. Whoever wanted that thing could have it; he didn't want it.
"Maybe they actually succeeded." Song Chaofeng narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze fixed on a group of people already locked in battle with the ice demon.
The ice demon is agile and won't give them any extra chances. Once it gets close, death is certain. So, if you want to trap it, you have to keep your distance. But the ice demon hasn't revealed itself yet. It just looks like a white shadow that attacks indiscriminately. No one knows if they will become the target in the next moment.
"Miss Ye, is your magic circle ready?"
Song Ling'er had been maneuvering for quite some time. She knew that this ice demon was not easy to deal with and that she should not linger in battle. She should leave it to Ye Lan. If her formation was really that powerful, then taking down the ice demon would not be a problem.
"Wait a little longer. This is a high-level magic array. It requires a lot of spirit stones, and every step must be perfect. I need time." Ye Lan's voice came, sounding somewhat weak. Song Ling'er had wanted to back down, but it seemed impossible now. She gritted her teeth and unleashed her magic weapon to attack.
On the other side, with Zhao Lixin leading the way, along with disciples from other sects, they had already surrounded the Ice Demon, but only temporarily. If it weren't for Liu Wen, a disciple skilled in fire attacks, they probably wouldn't have been able to contain her at all.
Liu Wen looked troubled. Sparks were beginning to fly from the round magic weapon in his hand, and his spiritual energy was almost depleted. After all, he was the only one using fire, and the others could only help him from the side.
Of course, there are also quite a few who are just slacking off. At this point, we naturally have to guard against some unexpected events.
"Is it not done yet? I can't hold on much longer." Liu Wen asked loudly, his palm prints changing constantly, his face flushed, as if he was holding his breath.
Song Ling'er used the Purple Cloud Rope to temporarily suppress his condition and said, "Wait a little longer, it will be over soon."
"No, we can't wait any longer."
"If you let go now, the Ice Demon will break free of control, and we'll all be in grave danger!"
Knowing what Liu Wen was planning, Song Ling'er shouted at him loudly. Zhao Lixin, who was standing to the side, also sensed that something was wrong and began to quietly retreat.
"I don't care about anything else!" Liu Wen roared, and the magic weapon in his hand shattered instantly. The white figure in the center suddenly moved and disappeared in an instant.
"No, run away!"
Someone shouted, and everyone immediately scattered. However, some people were frozen in place before they could run away.
"It's gone berserk! We mustn't let it catch up with us! Let's split up and run!"
At this moment, everyone is looking out for themselves, and no one cares about the so-called second-grade pills anymore; staying alive is the most important thing.
But this gave the ice demon an opportunity, and in the blink of an eye, it had turned several people into ice shards.
The biting wind howled, frost formed, and the wind was so strong it could freeze people to death. Right now, all that was left for everyone was to flee in all directions, and no one cared about their promise to Ye Lan.
Only Song Ling'er and Zhao Lixin were still trying to get close to the Ice Demon and see if they could lure it into Ye Lan's magic array.
The ice demon hadn't yet revealed its form, but now it had shown its scarlet eyes, demonstrating just how angry it was.
"Senior Brother Zhao, let's try to lure it over there. Whether we succeed or not depends on Miss Ye herself."
"That's exactly what I was thinking too. I would appreciate it if Junior Sister Song could assist me."
"That's natural."
After discussing it, the two of them surrounded the enemy. At this moment, the ice demon was chasing after one of the disciples with bloodshot eyes. It looked very angry, and the ice shards it exhaled were colder than ice. The surrounding air suddenly dropped, and thick frost formed on all sides.
"It's so cold..." Tao Tao exhaled a breath of warm air and whispered. Song Chaofeng quickly covered her mouth. "Bear with it for now, we'll escape right away."
"Something's not right." At this moment, Linghu Xuan's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly said this. Song Chaofeng and Tao Tao looked over in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Look over there."
He pointed to where the ice demon was, and the two looked over at the same time. To their surprise, they discovered that the ice demon's originally round body was constantly elongating, and it seemed to be taking on a human form.
"Mature stage? No way, if it really is mature stage, we'll all die." Song Chaofeng's heart was in his throat. The jade ruyi in his hand emitted a faint light. He was ready to escape with his men at any moment.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a disciple of the Sword Forging Sect nearby had his throat slashed open by a blast of ice. Crimson blood gushed out, and before he could even let out a scream, his body was torn to pieces.
"It's mature! Run!"
At this moment, Zhao Lixin could no longer care about anything else. He shouted and summoned his magic weapon, which quickly transformed into a beam of light and disappeared into the sky. Song Ling'er also felt that something was wrong. Although she had to do what was right for someone who had taken her things, staying alive was more important.
She also took to the air on her sword, trying to escape as much as possible.
Hearing the commotion outside, Ye Lan, standing in the center of the magic circle, gritted her teeth in anger. They were so close, but none of these people were reliable. Not only were most of them killed, but Zhao Lixin and Song Ling'er actually ran away first when danger was imminent.
Once she gets out, we'll definitely settle the score with them!
In a fit of anger, Ye Lan grabbed at the air with both hands. The Purple Cloud Rope, which was originally held by Song Ling'er, was summoned and forcibly broke free from her grasp, flying towards Ye Lan.
Zhao Lixin was no better off; his Breaking Wave Blade had vanished before he could even warm it up.
"Miss Ye, what do you mean by this?" Song Ling'er turned around and shouted angrily.
Ye Lan sneered, "What do you mean? Since we haven't achieved our goal, we naturally won't give you the items."
"You actually didn't erase the divine sense pulling on it." Song Ling'er gritted her teeth, her face extremely ugly.
"You guys are too stupid to even do a check. It seems you've been blinded by high-level magical artifacts."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the Ice Demon leaped forward and flew straight toward Zhao Lixin. Zhao Lixin had no time to speak and turned to run, but the moment he turned around, his body was pierced by three ice shards and pinned to the ground.
"Senior Brother Zhao!"
Song Ling'er shouted and, disregarding everything else, quickly fled on her sword. At the same time, she swept her whip across, grabbing a disciple from another sect who was fleeing and pulling him behind her to act as a human shield against the ice demon's attack. She then took out spirit stones and flew away with all her might.
There were very few people left around, most of them were still corpses, a gruesome sight. Tao Tao and the others, who were hiding in the shadows, held their breath, trying their best not to be discovered.
The ice demon noticed Ye Lan first. It slowly turned around, exhaling cold air from its nostrils, and walked towards Ye Lan step by step.
With the formation incomplete and no one to help lure them in, Ye Lan was in grave danger. Gritting her teeth, she shouted at the three people in the bushes, "How long are you planning to hide?"
