Ling Xueyan frowned, her face full of frustration. She sighed softly and said, "Yes! I never expected this Demon Realm to be so terrifying, far exceeding my expectations!"
Just as she finished speaking, a dazzling layer of icy blue flames suddenly appeared around Ling Xueyan's delicate body.
The flames burned fiercely, enveloping her entire body, and the aura emanating from her body instantly soared to its peak like a rocket.
"Freeze!"
A cold glint flashed in Ling Xueyan's beautiful eyes as she uttered those two words indifferently.
As her voice rang out, an extremely cold force swept outwards from her center in all directions.
In an instant, the entire area within a radius of ten thousand miles was shrouded in bitter cold. The originally ferocious and menacing demonic puppets had no time to react and were frozen into lifelike ice sculptures in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Xueyan lightly raised her hand and elegantly snapped her fingers.
Suddenly, a series of deafening explosions rang out, as if the ice statues had been struck by some powerful force, and they shattered one after another.
Immediately afterwards, the shattered ice sculpture turned into countless tiny ice shards that fell from the sky, like a crystal-clear rain of ice and snow.
However, this "rain" didn't last long before an even more astonishing sight appeared...
In the blink of an eye, all the ice shards on the ground evaporated into thin air, as if they had never existed, leaving only an empty ground.
Qin Feng was dumbfounded. "Wow, you're actually this strong?"
Hearing this, Ling Xueyan turned to look at Qin Feng and said speechlessly, "Strong my ass! My move is just visually impressive, its actual power is so-so!"
"If these shadow puppets weren't so weak, we wouldn't have been able to achieve this effect at all."
Qin Feng blinked, then nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice. "That's right, these shadow puppets are too weak in front of you!"
"Roar..."
Just then, from the depths of the valley, like an enraged beast, came a series of deafening roars once again!
The roar was like a surging, rolling wave, its powerful momentum chilling to the bone.
That powerful voice seemed to contain an innate kingly aura, as if all living beings in this world had to bow down to it.
Qin Feng's heart skipped a beat, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He knew that such a terrifying roar could not have been produced by an ordinary demon beast, and that the one about to appear must be an extremely powerful and ruthless character!
Qing Jie, standing beside Qin Feng, was deathly pale and trembling slightly. He quietly leaned closer to Qin Feng and whispered, "In my opinion, we should take a detour as soon as possible!"
"This aura is truly terrifying. I feel that if I were to confront it head-on, my life would be in danger!"
However, Qin Feng glared at him fiercely and replied irritably, "Hmph! Look at you, so cowardly. If you're really that cowardly, then you should get the hell out of my sight!"
Before the words were finished, the ground shook violently, and an enormous demonic puppet suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes!
This puppet was dozens of feet tall, resembling a towering mountain, inspiring awe and fear.
It emanated a faint black light, like a messenger from the deepest hell, sending chills down one's spine.
As the demonic puppet took each step forward, the earth trembled violently with every landing, as if the sky were collapsing and the earth were splitting apart.
Faced with such a behemoth, Ling Xueyan gritted her teeth, a resolute glint flashing in her beautiful eyes.
She quickly formed hand seals, preparing to unleash another powerful spell to challenge him.
But at that moment, the golden skeleton, who had been silent all along, rushed out without hesitation!
In an instant, the bones on his body, which had been dull and lifeless, suddenly shone with a dazzling golden light, like a bright golden sun rising slowly.
Immediately afterwards, the golden skull pounced straight at the giant object with lightning speed!
The golden skeleton charged toward the giant shadow puppet, and suddenly split in mid-air into several smaller golden skeletons, which attacked the shadow puppet's vital points.
The demonic puppet swung its two massive arms, as large as mountains, accompanied by a whooshing sound and a fierce aura.
Wherever that arm passed, the air was torn apart with a piercing whistling sound.
Despite this terrifying onslaught, the golden skull displayed extraordinary agility.
It dodged left and right like a ghost, skillfully avoiding the Shadow Puppet's repeated heavy blows.
Every dodge was so thrilling, yet perfectly timed.
Seeing this, Qin Feng shouted, gripped the Five Elements Divine Sword, and dashed forward like lightning.
In an instant, sword light flashed, and sword energy crisscrossed, engaging in a fierce battle with the demonic puppet.
Meanwhile, Ling Xueyan, standing at the rear, was not idle either. She lightly raised her jade-like hand, chanted incantations, and cast a powerful spell.
All that could be heard was the sound of "whoosh" as a barrage of icy arrows rained down on the Shadow Puppet.
These ice arrows were extremely fast and incredibly powerful, striking the Shadow Puppet's body and slightly slowing its movements.
Qing Jie, who had been watching from the sidelines, looked conflicted, hesitating whether or not to make a move.
But when he remembered Qin Feng's warning, he hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and decided not to back down anymore.
He swiftly formed hand seals, then with a sudden flick, a talisman radiating a mysterious light shot out from his hands.
The talisman unfurled in the air, instantly transforming into a raging inferno that hurtled towards the demonic puppet with overwhelming force.
Under the combined attack of the three men and the skeleton, the Shadow Puppet gradually found itself in a passive position.
Although it still fought back with its massive size and powerful strength, it began to show signs of being overwhelmed by the close cooperation and fierce attacks of the group.
Just when everyone thought victory was assured, an unexpected change occurred!
Suddenly, the demonic puppet erupted with intense black light, like a black sun rising abruptly.
As the black light emerged, the shadow puppet's size swelled again, becoming several times larger than before.
Immediately afterwards, the Shadow Puppet roared and swung one of its giant arms down hard.
With a loud "bang," several golden skeleton clones were shattered into pieces by the attack, turning into specks of golden light and dissipating into the air.
With his clone destroyed, the golden skeleton immediately suffered a backlash, and the light on his skeleton dimmed.
