Su Ran dared not be careless and cast the Ice Spirit Clan's defensive spell, "Ice Spirit Guardian Shield," a transparent, ice-blue shield enveloping her. Several phantoms of the Spirit Wind Valley Master simultaneously swung their swords at the shield, producing a series of clanging sounds and sending ice shards flying, but the shield remained as sturdy as ever.
The battle between Lin Feng and the Blood Shadow Sect woman was equally intense. The Blood Shadow Sect woman wielded her curved blade with impenetrable speed, creating swirling blood shadows wherever it passed, attempting to shred Lin Feng's spear. Relying on the agility of his Ice Spirit Clan's movement techniques, Lin Feng constantly changed positions, his spear darting out like a serpent as he maneuvered to counter the Blood Shadow Sect woman.
"Hmph, brat, you think you can stop me!" The Blood Shadow Sect woman shouted, her figure suddenly accelerating, transforming into a blood-red shadow as she charged towards Lin Feng. Lin Feng only felt a blur before his eyes, and hurriedly held his spear horizontally in front of him to block. The Blood Shadow Sect woman's curved blade slammed into the spear, the enormous impact causing Lin Feng's arm to go numb, and his feet involuntarily staggered back a few steps.
Just as Lin Feng regained his footing, the Blood Shadow Sect woman attacked again. This time, the crimson light on her scimitar intensified, clearly indicating she was using a more powerful technique. Lin Feng's heart tightened. He took a deep breath, channeling all his ice elemental power into his spear, causing an icy blue light to appear at the tip. As the scimitar slashed down again, Lin Feng roared and thrust his spear forward with all his might. The icy blue light collided with the crimson light, erupting into a burst of intense light, mixed with ice shards and blood mist.
Meanwhile, the battle between Su Ran and the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley reached its climax. Seeing that the "Wind Spirit Illusion Sword" couldn't break through Su Ran's defenses, a ruthless glint flashed in the Valley Master's eyes. He rapidly formed hand seals and chanted, "Wind Spirits gather, storm descends!" Instantly, a fierce wind arose within the stone chamber, swirling rapidly around the Valley Master to form a massive vortex. Wherever the storm passed, stones were swept into the air and pulverized into dust.
Su Ran sensed the immense power contained within the storm and knew this attack was no small matter. She channeled her ice spirit power to its limit, raised her hands, and shouted, "Ice Spirit Condensation, Ice Peaks Appear!" Immediately, massive ice peaks surged up from the ground, growing towards the storm's vortex in an attempt to block its ravages.
The storm collided with the ice peaks, producing a deafening roar. The ice peaks shattered under the storm's impact, turning into countless ice shards, but a continuous flow of ice peaks temporarily halted the storm's advance. Su Ran knew this couldn't continue, and she quickly devised a countermeasure within the Ice Spirit Guardian.
At this moment, the Blood Shadow Sect woman seized the opportunity when Lin Feng was blocking the attack of the light and launched another attack. She flashed behind Lin Feng, her curved blade whistling through the air as she thrust towards his back. Lin Feng sensed the attack from behind and tried to dodge, but it was too late. In the nick of time, an ice wall suddenly rose behind Lin Feng, blocking the Blood Shadow Sect woman's attack.
Lin Feng turned around and saw that it was one of Su Ran's disciples who had come to his aid. This disciple, worried about Lin Feng's safety, had taken advantage of the moment when Su Ran was defending against the Spirit Wind Valley Master's attack to quietly circle around to Lin Feng's vicinity and save his life at the crucial moment. The Blood Shadow Sect woman, enraged by her missed attack, turned and attacked the disciple.
"You little brat, how dare you ruin my plans!" The Blood Shadow Sect woman swung her curved blade repeatedly, and blood shadows surged towards the disciple like a tide. Although the disciple was not as strong as the Blood Shadow Sect woman, he was not afraid. He activated his Ice Spirit power and used the Ice Spirit Clan's "Ice Shard Scattering" spell. Countless ice shards shot out from his hand to meet the blood shadows.
The ice shards collided with the blood shadow, instantly melting the ice shards but slightly hindering the Blood Shadow Sect woman's attacks. Lin Feng seized the opportunity to adjust his state and rejoin the battle. He and the disciple cooperated, one taking the lead in attack and the other providing support, temporarily creating a stalemate with the Blood Shadow Sect woman.
Meanwhile, facing the powerful storm from the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley, Su Ran finally came up with a solution. She concentrated all her energy, gathering the power of ice spirits into her hands, and then thrust them forward with a mighty roar: "Ice Spirit Forbidden Spell - Absolute Zero Storm!" An extremely cold aura surged from Su Ran's hands, colliding head-on with the storm vortex of the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley.
Wherever the absolute zero storm passed, the air instantly froze into ice, and even the gale-force winds within the storm were frozen. Under the impact of the absolute zero storm, the storm vortex of the Spirit Wind Valley Master was gradually frozen, eventually ceasing to rotate and transforming into a massive iceberg standing in the stone chamber.
The Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley was shocked that Su Ran could unleash such a powerful forbidden spell. His expression changed drastically, and he tried to dodge, but was already enveloped by the chilling aura of the icy mountain. Just then...
The Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley was shocked that Su Ran could unleash such a powerful forbidden spell. His expression changed drastically, and he tried to dodge, but he was already enveloped by the chill of the iceberg. Just as the iceberg was about to completely freeze him, the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley unleashed all his spiritual power, and the spiritual wind around him surged wildly, trying to break through the icy restraint. With a crisp "crack," cracks appeared on the surface of the iceberg, and spiritual winds howled out from the cracks.
Seeing that the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley possessed such formidable strength to break free of the ice seal, Su Ran was startled. Knowing she couldn't give him a chance to recover, she once again channeled her ice spirit power, preparing for another attack. However, at that moment, the Blood Shadow Sect woman, seizing the opportunity when Su Ran's old strength was depleted and new strength hadn't yet been generated, abandoned her entanglement with Lin Feng and the others, and pounced on Su Ran like a ghost. Her curved blade flashed with an eerie blood-red light, and she shouted fiercely, "Su Ran, prepare to die!"
Seeing this, Lin Feng was frantic. He rushed towards the Blood Shadow Sect woman without hesitation, thrusting his spear with all his might to try and block her attack. But the Blood Shadow Sect woman was too fast; Lin Feng's spear only grazed the hem of her clothes. The Blood Shadow Sect woman dodged Lin Feng's spear and continued her attack on Su Ran.
Feeling the powerful killing intent coming from behind, Su Ran didn't have time to make a full defensive move and could only dodge to the side. The Blood Shadow Sect woman's curved blade still grazed her shoulder, leaving a bloody gash that stained her clothes. Su Ran groaned, enduring the sharp pain in her shoulder, and used her Ice Spirit Power to temporarily suppress the injury. Then she quickly turned around to confront the Blood Shadow Sect woman.
"Su Ran, today is your death day! The Blood Shadow Sect is determined to have the 'Heart of Ice Spirit'!" The Blood Shadow Sect woman's eyes were filled with madness and greed. She swung her scimitar again and attacked Su Ran. Su Ran knew that she could not back down now. She gritted her teeth, gathered ice spirit power in her hand to form an ice sword, and charged towards the Blood Shadow Sect woman.
The two sharp blades clashed, sending sparks flying. The Blood Shadow Sect woman's scimitar contained a strange blood spirit power, constantly eroding Su Ran's ice sword, causing fine cracks to appear on its surface. Su Ran felt the power of the ice sword in his hand gradually weakening, and he grew increasingly anxious.
Lin Feng arrived just then, shouting, "Senior Sister, I'm here to help you!" His spear flashed like lightning as he thrust towards the Blood Shadow Sect woman. The Blood Shadow Sect woman dodged Lin Feng's attack, simultaneously launching a flying kick at him. Lin Feng hurriedly used his spear to block, but the force of the kick left his arm numb, and he staggered back several steps.
Just as the three were engulfed in the melee, the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley, who had been frozen in ice, finally broke free from the iceberg's restraints. He emerged from the iceberg in a disheveled state, his clothes tattered and his hair disheveled. Looking at the chaos in the arena, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes. "Since you all want to fight for the 'Heart of Ice Spirit,' then don't blame me for being ruthless!" the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley muttered to himself.
Having said that, the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley rapidly formed hand seals and chanted an obscure and difficult-to-understand incantation. As he chanted, the air in the stone chamber became increasingly oppressive, and a powerful and evil aura gradually spread out. Su Ran, Lin Feng, and the others all sensed this abnormal aura, stopped what they were doing, and looked at the Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley warily.
"What...what kind of evil magic are you using?" Su Ran asked gravely. The Valley Master of Lingfeng Valley sneered, offering no reply, and continued chanting. Black currents of energy appeared around his body, swirling and coiling to form a massive black vortex. From within the vortex emanated faint, eerie howls and screams, sending chills down one's spine.
Suddenly, several black tentacles emerged from the black vortex, lunging at Su Ran, Lin Feng, and the others like pythons. Su Ran hurriedly swung her ice sword at the tentacles, but the sword only left a shallow mark, and the tentacles continued their attack. Lin Feng also thrust his spear at the tentacles, but similarly, he couldn't inflict any real damage.
Seeing this, the Blood Shadow Sect woman felt a pang of panic, but she forced herself to remain calm and shouted to Su Ran and Lin Feng, "Forget about our grudges for now, let's deal with him together! Otherwise, we'll all die!" Su Ran and Lin Feng exchanged a glance and nodded. The three temporarily set aside their differences and joined forces to defend against the attack from the Spirit Wind Valley Master.
Su Ran unleashed the Ice Spirit Clan's "Ice Spirit Shield," enveloping the three of them. Black tentacles struck the shield with resounding "bangs," causing ripples to spread across its surface. Lin Feng, meanwhile, searched for the tentacles' weaknesses within the shield, attempting to deliver a fatal blow. The Blood Shadow Sect woman's hands...
