Chapter 774: Gradually Unable to Hold On

Under the powerful counterattack of the Ice Demon, Lin Ze and others gradually found it difficult to resist.

Suddenly, the mysterious man noticed that there seemed to be some pattern in the rhythm of the ice demon's attacks.

He shouted: "Everyone, pay attention to the rhythm of the Ice Demon's attacks and look for flaws!" Upon hearing this, everyone endured the pressure and observed carefully.

Lin Ze stared at the Ice Demon in front of him with a sharp gaze. He noticed that every time the Ice Demon raised its hand to launch a heavy attack, its flank would briefly expose a flaw. This flaw was fleeting, but Lin Ze successfully captured this opportunity with his keen observation and quick reaction ability.

Without hesitation, he dodged and moved to the flank of an ice demon as fast as a ghost. He instantly raised the staff in his hand high up, and then stabbed the ice demon's flank with the force of thunder.

With a "puff" sound, the staff pierced the ice demon's flank accurately, and the ice demon roared in pain. Its attack also paused significantly, and its originally fierce offensive was instantly disintegrated.

Seeing this, the others followed Lin Ze's example. They flexibly shuttled between the ice demons, looking for their flaws and taking the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow. Under the counterattack of the crowd, the encirclement of the ice demons began to loosen gradually, and a gap appeared in the originally airtight defense line.

However, just when everyone thought victory was in sight, the door of the ice castle slowly opened. A biting cold wind blew out, accompanied by heavy footsteps, and a huge figure exuding an extremely cold aura slowly walked out from behind the door.

This figure was much taller than the other ice demons, and its body was covered with a thick layer of frost, leaving a trail of ice marks on the ground with every step it took. Its appearance instantly restored the morale of the originally panicked ice demons, and their attacks became more fierce, rushing towards everyone like a tide.

Seeing this, Lin Ze's heart tightened, but he did not retreat. He gritted his teeth and shouted to everyone: "Don't panic! First focus on dealing with this leader. As long as he is defeated, these minions will naturally be nothing to be afraid of!"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Ze led the way and rushed towards the Ice Demon leader like an arrow. The staff in his hand flashed with dazzling light, as if to cheer him on.

Seeing this, everyone plucked up their courage and followed closely, and a more intense battle began.

Lin Ze rushed to the ice demon leader first and swung his staff to smash him down hard.

However, the Ice Demon leader reacted extremely quickly. He raised his hand and waved it. An ice wall instantly stood up to block the attack.

The rebound force of the ice wall made Lin Ze's arm numb.

The mysterious man seized the opportunity and launched a surprise attack from the side, stabbing the ice demon leader's neck with the sword in his hand like lightning.

The Ice Demon leader dodged sideways, grabbed the mysterious man's sword with his backhand, and swung it hard. The mysterious man was thrown out and fell heavily to the ground.

Just as everyone was fighting the ice demon, the leader of the ice demon suddenly seized a fleeting opportunity and launched a fierce counterattack. It opened its bloody mouth and blew out an extremely cold breath from the depths of its throat. This cold air was like a white dragon, roaring and sweeping over. In the blink of an eye, the surrounding space seemed to be frozen, the temperature dropped sharply, and the originally green grass on the ground was instantly covered by a thick layer of ice, forming a scene of ice and snow.

Everyone was caught off guard and was forced to retreat again and again by the cold air, their bodies trembling involuntarily. Their clothes were instantly covered with a thick layer of frost, as if they were sealed by ice and snow. Lin Ze gritted his teeth and tried his best to stabilize his body. He knew that if he could not resist this cold air, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Don't panic!" Lin Ze shouted loudly, "Concentrate our strength and attack its eyes together!" His voice echoed in the snowy land like a flash of lightning that cuts through the darkness, bringing a glimmer of hope to everyone.

When everyone heard Lin Ze's shout, they came back to their senses and quickly adjusted their states. They each cast their own magic spells, and for a moment, various elemental energies intertwined and gathered in the air like gorgeous rainbows. These energies merged with each other to form a powerful force, like a volcanic eruption, bombarding the eyes of the ice demon leader.

The Ice Demon leader obviously did not expect that everyone would organize such a powerful attack so quickly. Its eyes were hit by the energy and it immediately let out a painful roar. The roar was deafening, as if the whole world was shaking.

Taking this opportunity, Lin Ze rushed towards the Ice Demon Leader again without hesitation. The staff in his hand burst into brilliant light at this moment, like the brightest star in the night sky. He used all his strength to pierce the staff into the Ice Demon Leader's heart.

With a "pop" sound, the staff pierced through the hard skin of the Ice Demon Leader and embedded deeply into its heart. The Ice Demon Leader was severely injured, and his huge body fell to the ground with a bang, splashing a cloud of dust.

When the other ice demons saw their leader fall to the ground, they were terrified. They no longer had the will to fight and fled in all directions, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the fallen Ice Demon leader.

Lin Ze drew out his staff and knelt on one knee tiredly.

At this moment, a strange light suddenly came out from the body of the Ice Demon leader. After the light dissipated, a magic book emitting blue light appeared.

Lin Ze picked up the magic book curiously. As soon as he touched it, a powerful magic power surged into his sea of consciousness, and the magical knowledge in the book emerged in his mind like a tide.

At the same time, a low roar was heard from the ice castle, and the ground began to shake violently. "Oh no, it seems there is an even more powerful existence!" the mysterious man shouted.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this, and stood up quickly as if they were facing a great enemy, with a tense expression, ready for battle. They stared at the depths of the ice castle with wide eyes, not daring to relax even a little.

Suddenly, a piercing cold wind whistled past, accompanied by a low roar, and the space deep inside the ice castle seemed to be torn apart. A huge vortex composed of countless ice crystals suddenly appeared in front of everyone, and the vortex was spinning rapidly, like a black hole in the universe, swallowing everything around it.

In the center of the vortex, a figure loomed. As the vortex gradually slowed down, the figure gradually became clearer. It was an illusory being, and its body seemed to be condensed from countless ice crystals, emitting a terrifying aura that made people's hearts palpitate.

The eyes of this being were like cold stars, icy and sharp. It slowly scanned everyone, and its gaze seemed to be able to penetrate people's souls, making people shudder.

Finally, it spoke, its voice as if it came from the Netherworld, cold and deep: "You think you can leave here by killing my puppet? How naive."

This sentence exploded in everyone's ears like thunder, their faces turned pale in an instant, and a feeling of despair surged in their hearts. They thought they had escaped from the predicament, but they didn't expect that this was just the beginning of a new nightmare.
