Bingmei looked in the direction he was pointing, and the shyness in her eyes was instantly replaced by focus.
She examined the ice sculptures closely, her mind filled with doubt.
When the father mentioned the Azure Ice Cave, he did not mention these ice sculptures or any related clues.
This means that they need to explore and solve everything on their own.
“These ice sculptures… I’ve never heard my father mention them…” She frowned slightly, trying to find clues from the shape and layout of the ice sculptures.
Upon hearing Bingmei's words, Wang Fan was taken aback. Could it be that her father was the chosen one?
Those legendary chosen ones always manage to turn misfortune into good fortune in desperate situations, knowing many secrets without having to go through all the hardships and dangers.
Was Ice Fairy's father also such a person, which is why he deliberately avoided this ice sculpture area during his experience in the Azure Ice Cave?
Wang Fan shook his head to clear his mind of these chaotic thoughts; now was not the time to dwell on such matters.
"Since there are no clues, we can only rely on ourselves." Wang Fan gripped the Bloodthirsty Halberd tightly and said with a determined look in his eyes.
Ice Fairy nodded, her gaze returning to the ice sculptures.
She carefully observed the posture of each ice sculpture, trying to find clues from their subtle movements or the positional relationship between them.
Ice Fairy's gaze was like a fine comb, meticulously combing through each ice sculpture, starting from the very first one.
Suddenly, her gaze settled on an ice sculpture at the very back of the ice chamber.
This ice sculpture is quite different from the others.
The other ice sculptures have smooth lines and lifelike shapes, as if frozen in a certain dynamic moment.
However, the outline of the ice sculpture is somewhat blurry, as if it were deliberately hidden.
Its posture is also strange, leaning slightly forward with its hands in a hugging gesture.
It seems to be guarding something, or perhaps waiting for something.
Ice Fairy's heart stirred; her intuition told her that this ice sculpture was of paramount importance.
She leaned closer to Wang Fan and whispered, "Wang Fan, something's not right about that ice sculpture. I feel like it might hold the key to breaking this deadlock!"
Wang Fan looked in the direction Bing Mei pointed, and the ice sculpture was indeed different from the others.
Its outline is slightly blurred, and its posture is strange, as if it is deliberately hiding something.
Wang Fan whispered to Bing Mei, "These ice sculptures have an indescribable eeriness about them, especially that blurry one. We must be careful when we go in."
Bingmei nodded, her eyes filled with vigilance.
The two slowly stepped into the ice chamber and walked along the passage between the ice sculptures on both sides.
They walked with extreme caution, afraid of triggering some trap.
The surrounding air seemed to be frozen by the chill of the ice sculpture; with each breath, one could feel the icy breath seeping straight into one's heart and lungs.
When they were halfway there, suddenly, the eye of an ice sculpture trembled slightly.
Wang Fan instantly gripped the Bloodthirsty Halberd, and Ice Charm quickly condensed an ice shield.
The two stood back to back, intently staring at the ice sculptures around them.
However, the ice sculpture only trembled slightly before returning to stillness.
Wang Fan frowned. "It seems these ice sculptures could launch an attack at any moment. We cannot afford to be careless."
Just then, a low humming sound suddenly came from the ice room.
Immediately afterwards, all the ice sculptures' eyes lit up with a ghostly blue light.
"They're here!"
Wang Fan shouted and swung his Bloodthirsty Battle Halberd, launching the first attack on an ice sculpture that was closest to him.
The ice sculpture reacted extremely quickly, its ice spear thrusting out instantly and colliding with Wang Fan's halberd, producing a crisp sound.
Ice Fairy wasn't having an easy time either; she dodged the ice sculptures' attacks while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
She spotted an opening and slammed her ice shield into the ice sculpture.
The ice sculpture swayed slightly, but quickly regained its balance and continued its attack.
The battle intensified, and Wang Fan and Bing Mei gradually found themselves in a predicament.
The ice sculptures were numerous and their attacks were fierce, causing small wounds to appear on the Ice Demon's body.
Crimson bloodstains spread across her pristine white clothes, resembling red plum blossoms blooming in the snow.
But she showed no sign of backing down, and with her indomitable will, she struggled against the ice sculptures.
During the fierce battle, Wang Fan suddenly discovered that the attacks of those ice sculptures seemed to have some kind of pattern.
As long as we can maintain this rhythm, we can find opportunities to counterattack.
While fending off the ice sculptures' attacks, he shouted to the Ice Fairy, "Ice Fairy, pay attention to the intervals between their attacks; there's a pattern to it!"
Ice Demon understood immediately and began to pay attention to the rhythm of the ice sculpture's attacks.
Finally, the two seized an opportunity and exerted their strength simultaneously, successfully repelling the approaching ice sculptures.
Before the ice sculptures could launch another attack, they quickly rushed towards the mysterious ice sculpture inside the ice chamber.
But when they arrived in front of the mysterious ice sculpture, it suddenly emitted a soft light, which, like an invisible force, violently repelled the two of them.
Wang Fan and Bing Mei crashed heavily to the ground several meters away, like kites with broken strings.
"Cough cough... What kind of power is this!" Wang Fan struggled to get up, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Ice Fairy's face was also pale, clearly indicating that the sudden impact had seriously injured her.
However, before they could recover, the ice sculptures that had been repelled approached them again.
Footsteps on the ice made a dull sound, like the beat of a death knell.
Wang Fan gritted his teeth, gripped the Bloodthirsty Battle Halberd tightly, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit: "Ice Demon, it seems that these ice sculptures will not let us go easily. Today, we have no choice but to fight!"
Ice Demon wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, stood up, and her eyes blazed with fighting spirit: "Alright, let's fight to the death!"
After saying that, the two rushed towards the ice sculptures again.
This time, Wang Fan unleashed his full power, wielding the Bloodthirsty Halberd with ferocious force, each swing sending up shards of ice.
Ice Spirit used ice magic to create ice walls among the ice sculptures.
Sometimes he blocked the ice sculpture's attack, and sometimes he changed the ice sculpture's movement route, creating opportunities for Wang Fan to attack.
Wang Fan seized the opportunity, let out a loud shout, and swung his Bloodthirsty Halberd with fierce momentum at an ice sculpture.
With a loud crash, the ice sculpture was instantly smashed to pieces, ice shards flying everywhere and scattering throughout the cold ice chamber.
However, something strange happened.
The flying ice shards spontaneously gathered in mid-air and reformed into the original shape of the ice sculpture.
Moreover, the newly restored ice sculpture seemed to have become even more ferocious, swinging its ice spear even more swiftly as it thrust straight at Wang Fan.
Wang Fan's pupils contracted sharply, and he hurriedly dodged to the side. The ice spear grazed his clothes, leaving a cold mark.
"These ice sculptures can actually be restored? This is a huge problem!" he thought to himself, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Ice Fairy's expression was equally solemn. She knew that if things continued like this, the two of them would eventually be worn down by these unkillable ice sculptures.
