Demon King: Hero, don't run away!
Chapter 1419: Spinning the Top
Bai Jin tightly gripped the magic wand.
Being able to gather such immense magic power without using a magic array is extremely rare, and to be able to convert all that power into magic is even more of a unique talent.
Tian Hanxue's strength is extraordinary, comparable to the [Count Blood] they've encountered before.
...perhaps she is one of the Demon King Four Heavenly Kings.
"Bai Jin! What type of magic is she using?"
Yang Yu's voice echoed by his ear, and Bai Jin quickly responded: "I'm afraid it's a special ice magic that allows her to select targets, freezing some and causing harm to others!
As Gordon said, I'm not sure we can completely withstand this attack!"
"What about with all the magicians here? Can we do it? Is there time?"
"I don't know, we can only try!"
"Don't bother! Everyone, if you don't want to die, quickly get behind me!" Yang Yu pulled out the Flame Dragon Shield, firmly planting it into the ground, unfurling the Illusion Shield.
The terrifying magic power surged, and the crowd scrambled to run towards Yang Yu.
"Bai Jin, prepare attack magic. Gordon, do as I said, ensure everyone's safety, don't get them caught up in this battle."
Yang Yu glanced sideways at Iyas.
Iyas understood immediately, pulling on the necklace around his neck.
The dance of Tian Hanxue abruptly stopped, the magic was completed.
"[Infinite Ice Binding]"
The fan gently flipped, surrounded by Tian Hanxue's magic power, following her command, turning into a fierce cold wind, forming thousands of ice and snow, howling towards the manor.
In an instant, sharp ice spurs rose from the ground, and numerous cone-shaped regions grew ice mountains in front of Tian Hanxue.
The ice and snow cascaded along the sloped surfaces of the ice mountains, crashing into the sky, transforming into fluttering snowflakes, and descending.
Ice crystals reflected the sun's remnants, glittering brightly.
"Only one?"
Tian Hanxue's eyes narrowed slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with the result, she abruptly closed the fan, and a frost ice shield rapidly rose from her body.
With a "crack," a sharp sword blade with an orange glow crashed onto Tian Hanxue's frost ice shield!
Yang Yu never thought that relying on [Interception] alone would completely block the meticulously prepared magic of Tian Hanxue.
As Tian Hanxue initiated her magic, Yang Yu let go of the shield and moved.
First, he rushed east at full speed, then used [Incredible Braking Boots] and [Climbing] to advance along the wall, pushing forward to Tian Hanxue.
However, what seemed like a wondrous and swift strike was sensed by Tian Hanxue, who used a shield to block it.
"To escape from that magic and still initiate an attack, impressive."
"Clash—" Tian Hanxue opened her fan and swung it forward, three mysterious blue rays fired parallel towards Yang Yu, who was right in front.
With a slight slip, Yang Yu used [Climbing] to push obliquely off the wall, evading the three mysterious blue rays.
The blue rays struck into the town, cutting through houses, slashing the earth, and when they stopped, three round ice blades were deeply embedded into the ground.
Distinctive glimmer flashed on the sword blade, and Yang Yu executed a [Shield Shattering], breaking Tian Hanxue's frost ice shield into fragments.
"[Snow Concealment]"
Tian Hanxue's figure vanished into the snow, putting several meters between her and Yang Yu.
The enemy's response was faster than expected; Tian Hanxue shifted her strategy.
Her kimono lightly floated, Tian Hanxue spun in a circle, stirring magic:
"[Ice Sealed World]"
The snowflakes that were slowly falling seemed to slow down by hundreds of times, nearly freezing in mid-air.
The surrounding temperature rapidly dropped, a unique barrier swiftly spread from Tian Hanxue, affecting all living creatures within a kilometer of her.
The closer to Tian Hanxue, the more severe the temperature drop and the greater the speed reduction.
Closest to Tian Hanxue, Yang Yu's speed plummeted by nearly 40%, the biting cold striking his face and body.
Showing no sign of retreat, behind Yang Yu there appeared a faint flame, which gradually spread across his body:
"[Fire Attraction]!"
The flame on Yang Yu was like a small snake lunging venomously at [Tian Hanxue].
[Tian Hanxue] considered using a skill for defense, but the release delay of [Ice and Snow World] prevented her from immediately using that skill to defend.
The fire snake bit into her body, but it caused no harm, only igniting a fiery rage in her; she was determined to use an attack skill to kill Yang Yu today.
Tian Hanxue immediately understood the function of the skill:
"A skill that seals other skills' function? A wise judgment."
Tian Hanxue focused her gaze, carefully observing the man in front of her, her instinct telling her that she absolutely cannot underestimate him, and she must not expose too many weaknesses, or she will suffer.
Luckily, Yang Yu's speed had diminished significantly, allowing her plenty of room to maneuver.
Waving her fan, Tian Hanxue released powerful ice and snow magic, blasting towards Yang Yu.
Even if she cannot use any transformation skills, many ice magic spells have freeze and lock effects.
As long as those spells successfully hit Yang Yu, they can render him a helpless lamb.
After a fierce clash with Tian Hanxue for two or three rounds, suddenly crimson magic arrays emerged from the ice mountain.
Iyas protected most of the people with [Goddess's Smile], creating a small space within the ice.
However, this small space wasn't enough for Bai Jin to use flame magic to melt the ice without concern.
Luckily, many people had the Star Eye, they began searching for areas of the ice mountain with weak magic power, trying to return to the hall and seek safe refuge.
Sena stayed by Bai Jin's side, sharing part of her vision with Bai Jin, so she could determine the positions of Yang Yu and Tian Hanxue even within the ice, enabling her to lock onto targets.
With her magic wand against the ice, Bai Jin poured magic power into the array, and the crimson magic array immediately spewed out a torrent of crimson flames, the flames turning into fire snakes rushing at Tian Hanxue.
"As expected."
Tian Hanxue temporarily halted her attack, preparing to dodge, but at that moment, countless thorns sprouted from the wall, binding Tian Hanxue from all directions.
Just as she was about to be bound by the thorns, Tian Hanxue's figure became illusory, transforming into clusters of snowflakes, distancing herself from the thorns.
Due to [Fire Attraction]'s effects, Tian Hanxue couldn't use any transformation skills... is it the equipment's effect?
Tian Hanxue's figure appeared in mid-air, plummeting downward, trying to evade the flame magic.
Yang Yu crouched half-squat sideways against the wall, holding the shield before his chest, emitting distinctive blue light outlining his silhouette.
Glancing ferociously at Tian Hanxue, Yang Yu activated a skill:
"[Taunt]!"
Tian Hanxue was planning to escape, but halfway through, her body disobeyed and darted towards Yang Yu.
The fan collided with the shield, and Yang Yu suddenly stood up, forcefully lifting the shield upward like whipping a spinning top, causing Tian Hanxue's body to rotate.
The intense flames swept above Yang Yu, who then sheathed his sword and clenched his fist, striking fiercely at Tian Hanxue's abdomen, punching her into the raging flames.
