Chapter 675 Ice Monkey
rush, rush, rush. Xia Fan knew that the longer the delay, the more dangerous it would be. It was not only because the more and more ice hockeys were thrown from above, denser and larger, but more importantly, because of the continuous touching of these ice hockeys, the entire iceberg formation became more and more violent. The ice blue light swept across the entire iceberg wave by wave and began to spread further away. This is a sign that the entire iceberg formation would be triggered.
The power of the formation on this tallest iceberg being triggered has made Xia Fan almost unable to withstand it. It can be imagined what dangerous situation he will face when the formation on other icebergs is activated and the entire iceberg formation begins to operate completely.
If he cannot reach the top of the mountain before the formation is completely activated and find a way to seize control of the entire formation, then waiting for him and Ge Changhe will definitely be the worst result. At that time, it may not be that what they have to consider may not be whether they can escape alive, but how a way of death is more comfortable.
"Ah!" After several times of flashbacks, Xia Fan had already rushed through the last section of the road. At this time, he no longer had his previous concerns. With a wave of his hand, he had already sacrificed a ten thousand soul banner. With a casual sweep, the banner shadow rolled up like the Nine Heavens Galaxy. With a roar, it instantly exploded the thirty or forty ice hockeys that were huge to seven or eight feet high.
The ice chips flew, and it filled seven or eight hundred feet in an instant, and it also pounced on Xia Fan's face. The cold feeling shocked his spirit, and at the same time, his heart, which was originally surging murderous intent, became much calmer. Because although he had fought so happily just now, he immediately felt the counterattack of the iceberg formation followed. If he hadn't resolved it in time, he might have suffered a great loss again. Even so, he could not help but surging blood and almost vomited blood again.
It seems that spells cannot be used in the next battle, otherwise it will easily attract attacks from the formation. Xia Fan thought to himself.
"Bang..." Xia Fan landed on the top of the mountain. He glanced over and saw the culprits who threw ice hockey, and then couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Originally, Xia Fan thought that the move might be to take the lead to other powerful gods on the top of the mountain, but now he realized that the one standing on the top of the mountain was not a group of people, but a group of monkeys. To be more precise, they were not living creatures at all, at least not flesh and blood, but a group of spiritual bodies condensed from the ice that never melted for thousands of years.
They are different from the soul bodies in the Ten Thousand Soul Banners. Like the Flame White Ape King, although they have no physical body and only have a soul, there are monsters with blood and flesh in front of it. However, because the body was destroyed later, the soul did not dissipate, and finally condensed and formed again, becoming the current soul body. It is also considered to be a path of cultivation, but from the original soul body cultivation to only cultivating the soul.
However, this spiritual body is another situation. They are something that is formed by the occasional change after the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is highly condensed. They have no body, but they are not considered souls. They can only be considered spirits. It is said that heaven and earth have long been, but the limitations they have suffered are far greater than those of souls. Because they have no physical body and have no spiritual intelligence at the beginning of their birth, they are confused and can only float around under the drive of instinct.
This state is undoubtedly quite dangerous for them, because the spirits themselves are quite fragile. Sometimes a gust of wind blows and a ray of lightning strikes them, and they may completely dissipate. At the same time, because they were quite weak when they were just born, it is impossible to float far away and can only wander around the birthplace, similar to lonely ghosts. Most spirits will gradually dissipate in this state.
However, there are some exceptions. As long as it does not disappear quickly, or after luckily surviving the first few hardships, the spirit will activate its spiritual intelligence and will naturally possess itself to something. Therefore, even if it has a body, it will turn from a spirit into a spiritual body.
Just like the ice monkeys that appeared in front of Xia Fan at this time, they were actually spiritual bodies. The reason why they looked like monkeys must be that they were affected by the outside world when they possessed the ice, so they became like this.
You must know that the spirit itself has no shape or appearance. If you have to say what it looks like, it will probably be like clouds and fog. It will not have a chance to shape it until it is attached to something in the world and turns into a spirit body. What it becomes at this time will basically look like in the future.
Xia Fan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this large group of forty or fifty ice monkeys, because even though he was quite knowledgeable, he rarely heard of forty or fifty spirits gathered together. When the scene in front of him shocked him, he couldn't help but have some guess, that is, these spirits must not have appeared by chance, and it is very likely that the original owner of this small world, the ancestor of Dahuang, found them from somewhere, and then put them here and specially guided them to become such spirits.
Then the group of ice monkeys became the guardians of the iceberg. Because of their special nature, they will not be affected by the iceberg array. They are spiritual bodies and do not have to eat or drink at all. As long as they have spiritual energy, they can survive. So they stay here and attack anyone who intends to go up the mountain.
Xia Fan didn't know if anyone had been here before he arrived, but I guess even if someone came, he would definitely return home even if he was attacked by these ice monkeys. Of course, the one who was really powerful was definitely not these ice monkeys, because no matter how powerful they were, their overall strength was only equivalent to the peak of the God Transformation Realm. In fact, if they wanted to defend here, they didn't need to have any strong combat power. As long as they could trigger the iceberg formation, it would be enough.
But since I'm here now, you can't help showing off your might. Xia Fan thought, and reached out behind him and said, "Lao Ge, lend your shield."
Ge Changhe did not hesitate at all and handed the shield to Xia Fan directly.
The original quality of this shield is extraordinary, but because Ge Changhe used it to withstand the heavy pressure of the iceberg array just now, it was severely damaged, and the spiritual light on the shield surface has become very dim. If it cannot be repaired properly, it is very likely to collapse completely.
If it is a normal battle between practitioners, using such a shield is basically useless. It may be completely broken if it is only one attack. But it is just right now. Because the spiritual light on it is already dim, there will be no fluctuations in spiritual energy when used, and there is no need to worry about triggering the iceberg array during battle.
Although Xia Fan was standing on the top of the mountain at this time, he seemed much safer than before, but in fact it was not the case. Because this flat mountain top was the core of the entire iceberg formation, it was even more dangerous step by step. If you are not careful, you may be crushed to death by the entire formation again.
"Roar!" The ice monkeys suddenly became extremely violent when they saw Xia Fan and Ge Changhe climbing to the top of the mountain. They rushed towards Xia Fan with hissing and roaring.
These ice monkeys not only look like monkeys carved from ice cubes, but also behave very similarly, but they attacked faster and more fiercely. Almost as soon as they roared, they all turned into ice-blue lights and appeared around Xia Fan. They were really like wind and lightning. At the same time, when their claws were poked out, the cold wind was howling. In an instant, there was a blizzard on the top of the iceberg. The wind was like thunder, and the ice was broken like tide, and it hit Xia Fan and Ge Changhe from all directions.
Neither the cold wind nor the broken ice are the most deadly. What is really deadly is the claws of those ice monkeys. They are not only sharp, but also contain powerful cold poison. As long as they are caught, the cold poison will definitely enter the body and will be frozen into ice in an instant.
"Get firmly." Xia Fan said to Ge Changhe, and at the same time he stepped forward and smashed the huge shield in his hand.
Shields can not only be used to block the enemy's attacks on the battlefield, but also as weapons for attacks. Xia Fan just happened to know how to use them. At this time, he waved the giant shield, not only blocking all the attacks of the ice monkeys about a ft in front of him, but every time he changes his figure, he will hit the scratched claws back when the shield hits it.
"Bang bang bang..."
Although Xia Fan did not dare to cast magic, and did not use the shield in his hand as a magic weapon. He just relied on its solidity and heavyness to fight in close combat, how could he not use any magic power in such a fierce battle? So every time he hit the claw of the ice monkey, a loud bang would definitely explode. The strong wind would blow the ice monkey that was coming to attack directly and would push Xia Fan backwards.
It seems that Xia Fan was at a disadvantage everywhere in the battle, and was chased by a group of ice monkeys. When he occasionally counterattacked, he was shocked again. In fact, Xia Fan did not suffer any losses from beginning to end. Instead, he was retreating again and again, and exploded the claws of several manic ice monkeys that attacked him.
Xia Fan's retreat was actually done on purpose. If someone watched the battle, he would find that he seemed to be retreating continuously, but he was approaching the central area of the top of the iceberg step by step. And that was the most important place for the entire iceberg formation. As long as he took it down, he would be considered to have completely controlled the entire iceberg formation. At that time, the life and death of these ice monkeys was not just a matter of thought.
"Roar, roar, roar..." Although Xia Fan was smart, those ice monkeys were not stupid either. After a crazy attack, they quickly noticed Xia Fan's intention and then started roaring wildly. The next moment, the ice monkeys who had originally attacked Xia Fan head-only suddenly changed their attack strategy. Many began to detour from both sides, trying to surround Xia Fan.
