Bingmei glanced at the deep pit with lingering fear. If there had been the slightest mistake, they would have been smashed to pieces by now.
"This ice beast is amazing!" Bingmei exclaimed in surprise.
Wang Fan nodded in agreement, his eyes fixed on the ice beast as he pondered a countermeasure while simultaneously opening the system scan.
The system quickly provided the information.
Name: Frost Giant
Rank: Tier 5, Level 9 magical beast
(Description: Possesses extremely powerful ice magic. The ice spikes on its body are not only hard but can also unleash ice attacks. Its weaknesses are its abdomen and eyes. After each powerful ice beam is unleashed, its magic power needs to gather briefly, resulting in a short period of stagnation.)
Wang Fan was overjoyed; with this crucial information, his chances of winning had increased.
He quickly informed Bingmei of the weaknesses and flaws detected by the system.
“Ice Spirit, this ice behemoth pauses briefly after each powerful beam of light. Seize the opportunity to use ice magic to restrict its movement, and I will take the chance to attack its eyes or abdomen.”
Upon hearing this, Bingmei nodded, "Okay, I will fully cooperate with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ice behemoth roared again, its mouth flashing with blue light, clearly about to unleash that terrifying ice-blue beam of light once more.
Wang Fan and Bing Mei dared not be careless and quickly ran in different directions to dodge.
The beam of light, like a blue lightning bolt, grazed past Wang Fan's side and blasted a huge crater in the ice that could swallow several people.
The surrounding ice surface shattered instantly, sending countless ice shards flying.
The moment the ice behemoth finished its attack, Ice Charm quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
Centered on the ice behemoth, a massive amount of ice elements were frantically converging.
Several enormous ice pillars instantly rose from the ground, tightly trapping the limbs of the ice behemoth.
The icy behemoth roared angrily, its ice spikes gleaming brightly.
In an attempt to break free from the icicle's grasp, countless cracks immediately appeared on the icicle's surface.
Seizing this brief moment, Wang Fan moved with extreme speed, rushing towards the icy behemoth like a ghost.
In the blink of an eye, he was in front of the ice behemoth, his Bloodthirsty Halberd gleaming with a cold light, and he thrust it toward the ice behemoth's left eye without hesitation.
The ice behemoth sensed the approaching danger and tried to turn its head to avoid it.
But the ice pillars restricted his movement, and he could only watch helplessly as the sharp blades came stabbing at him.
With a "thud," the Bloodthirsty Halberd pierced precisely into the left eye of the Frost Beast.
The behemoth let out a painful roar, and blue blood gushed out of its left eye like a fountain.
It shook its head wildly, and the immense force sent Wang Fan flying.
Seeing this, Ice Spirit immediately increased the output of ice magic, and more ice pillars suddenly grew from the ground, binding the ice behemoth's body even tighter.
Wang Fan steadied himself in mid-air and charged towards the ice behemoth once again.
At this moment, the ice behemoth's movements became somewhat slower due to its injured left eye, and its attacks and defenses against Wang Fan were also weakened.
Wang Fan seized the opportunity and, with the help of Ice Charm's magic,...
Having successfully dodged the ice spikes flying from the Frost Beast, he exerted his strength once more, thrusting the Bloodthirsty Halberd straight at the Frost Beast's right eye.
Another scream rang out as Wang Fan successfully pierced the right eye of the Frost Beast.
The icy behemoth, having lost its eyes, went into extreme madness.
It struggled desperately, its ice spikes shooting out in all directions like cannonballs.
Wang Fan and Bing Mei skillfully dodged through the flying ice spikes, continuing their attack on the ice behemoth.
Wang Fan spotted a thin spot on the ice armor of the giant ice beast's belly, exerted his strength, and plunged the Bloodthirsty Halberd deep into it.
The ice behemoth's body trembled violently as Wang Fan stirred the Bloodthirsty Battle Halberd.
Its life force gradually dissipated, and it finally collapsed to the ground with a thud, splashing up large amounts of ice shards.
Wang Fan and Bing Mei looked at the fallen ice behemoth, both panting slightly, but their eyes were filled with the joy of victory.
"Finally, we've taken care of it," Bingmei said, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
Wang Fan breathed a sigh of relief, a satisfied smile appearing on his face: "Hmm, this big guy is really tough to deal with, but we're getting better and better at cooperating."
With that, he put the Bloodthirsty Halberd back into his system inventory.
This fierce battle gave him even more insights into the use of the Bloodthirsty Battle Halberd's power.
Their gazes returned to the mist in the center of the frozen lake, where the glow emanating from the crystalline grapevines grew increasingly alluring, as if beckoning them.
Wang Fan and Bing Mei exchanged a smile, their eyes full of anticipation, and slowly walked towards the center of the frozen lake.
The ice beneath their feet was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting their figures.
The surroundings were quiet and still, as if all danger had gone far away.
As they approached the mist, the veil-like fog gradually enveloped them.
The glow of the crystal grapevines shimmered faintly in the mist, making them appear even more mysterious and captivating.
Upon entering the fog, they discovered that it was not as dangerous as they had imagined.
Instead, it exudes a fresh and slightly sweet aroma, as if it were the unique fragrance of crystal grapes.
As if aware of their arrival, the mist slowly dispersed to both sides, as if making way for them.
Following the path cleared by the mist, a massive ice hill came into view.
The surface of the ice mound was uneven and emitted a soft blue light.
Meanwhile, the crystal grapevines are climbing and growing along the cracks and textures of the ice mound, with plump crystal grapes shimmering with a dreamlike light on the vines.
Wang Fan and Bing Mei stared in astonishment at the scene before them, momentarily lost in thought.
"This...this is too beautiful," Bingmei exclaimed.
With excitement, they slowly approached the ice mound.
At the top of the ice mound, there was a seal radiating intense ice energy.
The crystal grapevines thrived thanks to the sealed ice energy, spreading along the seal's patterns to create a unique landscape.
“This should be the core of the Illusion Crystal Grapevine,” Wang Fan said, his eyes filled with surprise.
Ice Charm nodded slightly, her gaze fixed on the Illusion Crystal Grapevine growing on the seal, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.
"I didn't expect the crystal grapes to be on the seal. It seems we can only collect the crystal grapes first and then find a way to break the seal."
"Okay, let's get started!" Wang Fan nodded in agreement.
After saying that, Wang Fan gently approached the Illusion Crystal Grapevine and slowly touched one of the bunches of grapes.
To his surprise, he picked the bunch of crystal grapes with great ease.
Just then, a system notification sounded in Wang Fan's mind.
"Ding! You have obtained 1 Crystal Grape."
"Ding! Triggered the 10,000x amplification function! Obtained Crystal Grape*"
Wang Fan held the crystal grapes up to his eyes and examined them closely. He saw that each grape was plump and round.
It is as if it were carved from the finest crystal, with wisps of energy flowing inside, like the Milky Way flowing within.
