"Sister Xuehong!"

A Senior Martial Brother Chen Chen Qiaoqian, who appeared to be the dual cultivation partner of this woman, let out a cry of extreme grief. Then, waving both hands, a streak of black light shot toward the surroundings of the woman's corpse, flying and dancing wildly nearby in an attempt to find the Ice Fiend that had harmed her.

Speaking of which, this Senior Martial Sister named "Sister Xuehong" died quite unjustly. If she hadn't been overcome by a momentary desire to compete and used a talisman treasure, she might still be safe and sound.

Because before using the talisman treasure, she had always had a light gauze defensive magic treasure floating beside her. But because she wanted to shorten the time to activate the talisman treasure and intended to save some magic power, she carelessly retracted the magic treasure, and as a result, she, who had no protection,

lost her life just like that.

However, to say that this woman was too inexperienced and too careless to make such a big mistake is really a bit unfair.

She had also seen that the enemies opposite had all turned into light cocoons, and feeling that she was surrounded by fellow sect members, she dared to activate the talisman treasure with such peace of mind. But who could have foreseen that the Ice Fiend would actually break out of the cocoon while only half-demonic, and immediately turn invisible to target her.

At that time, the woman was at the final moment of activating the talisman treasure, and even if she wanted to stop, she couldn't do it immediately, which is why she fell victim to the vicious attack.

Speaking of which, when Song Meng activated that long spear talisman treasure, he also did not use any defensive measures. It was just that Song Meng's talisman treasure had less power, so it was activated successfully in advance. Otherwise, who knows which person that hidden Ice Fiend would have ambushed?

And not to mention the two of them, even Han Li and the others who had just attacked did not have many defensive magic treasures activated. After all, the light cocoons just now were merely targets that could not fight back, so they naturally did not want to waste magic power to sacrifice additional defensive magic treasures.

But now, seeing the tragic scene of this woman having her heart gouged out, and then hearing Han Li's warning, cold sweat broke out on the backs of the others. Immediately, defensive magic treasures and protective barriers all appeared to prevent this strange and ferocious enemy from launching another sneak attack.

But something that made them look at each other in even greater dismay appeared: no matter what kind of invisibility-detecting spells and magic treasures they used, they could not track the traces of that demonic person.

Even if they occasionally caught a glimpse, before they could even feel happy, the demonic person would abruptly disappear again, seemingly in a state of high-speed movement. At this moment, the Ice Fiend had become completely semi-transparent, appearing and disappearing around them from time to time. Not to mention the naked eye, even magic treasures full of spirituality could not exert the effect of active tracking, and were completely shaken off by the fiend in a few moments.

Now everyone became terrified, constantly paying attention to the movements around them, and were actually suppressed by the half-demonic Ice Fiend alone, unable to move.

Only Han Li looked at the scene in the arena, a strange expression flashing across his face.

That Senior Martial Brother Wang, who had fought side-by-side with Han Li, had never seen such a bloody scene before. At this moment, his face was extremely pale, revealing a look of fear.

To him, the "Senior Martial Sister" who had been chatting and laughing with him not long ago had died so miserably; it was simply like a dream. This was completely different from his preconceived notion that his side would display great power and easily annihilate the enemy!

Thinking of this, he glanced at the dual cultivation Senior Martial Brother of "Senior Martial Sister" Sister Xuehong, whose expression was like madness, and his face looked even uglier.

Perhaps the more people fear something, the more it comes!

Whether it was because his guilty expression was seen through by the Ice Fiend, or because it felt he was weaker and easier to attack.

Therefore, while he was lost and helpless, a transparent, icy cold claw appeared out of thin air from behind him and viciously grabbed toward his heart.

This Senior Martial Brother Wang's protective magic treasure, a small bronze shield, was quite spiritual. Before Senior Martial Brother Wang could actively drive it, it flashed and moved over, just in time to block this strike.

With a light "clang," although the ice-like claw was blocked, the small bronze shield was instantly covered with a thick layer of frost, and at the same time, it fell straight to the ground, temporarily losing its spirituality.

Only then did Senior Martial Brother Wang discover the shocking change behind him. His face turned bloodless in a "brush," and he subconsciously turned around, looking left and right in a panic.

After seeing that there was no movement nearby, he hesitated for a moment, then suddenly bent down to pick up the small bronze shield. He needed to thaw his magic treasure in time so he could sacrifice it again.

"Dodge quickly!"

Liu Jing, who was nearby, saw this action of his and shouted at him in shock and anger.

"What?" He couldn't help but be stunned. Before he understood what was happening, the water-attribute protective barrier behind him emitted an extremely crisp cracking sound, and then a cold wind that chilled one to the bone struck his back.

"It's over!" Senior Martial Brother Wang almost simultaneously knew what was going on; the invisible Ice Fiend had not left after one strike, but had turned behind him again to launch a fatal blow.

At this instant, Senior Martial Brother Wang's mind went blank, and the only thing that emerged in his mind was the scene of "Senior Martial Sister" Sister Xuehong lying in a pool of blood, dying miserably.

"I really didn't expect that it would be my turn so soon!"

Senior Martial Brother Wang could only think of such a sentence.

But just at this moment, his vision blurred, and then his body felt light. His whole person flew out as if riding the clouds and mist, and then a series of rumbling wind and thunder sounds and the angry shouts of someone came from beneath him.

Subsequently, his feet touched the hard ground, and he stood there safely and steadily.

"Junior Martial Brother Wang, are you alright?"

Just as he was completely baffled, not knowing whether he was dead or alive, an extremely concerned voice came.

Hearing this extremely familiar voice, he turned his head in a daze. Liu Jing was looking at him with an expression of extreme worry.

Seeing this face, Senior Martial Brother Wang knew that he was really alive and unharmed, and couldn't help but say gratefully with extreme surprise:

"Senior Martial Brother Liu, was it you who saved me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Senior Martial Brother Wang himself was startled; his voice was extremely hoarse, showing that he had indeed been greatly frightened just now!

Hearing this, Liu Jing showed a bit of embarrassment and said apologetically:

"I am ashamed. It is not my credit that Junior Martial Brother survived, but Junior Martial Brother Han who saved you just now, and he is still fighting that demonic person! Cough, I didn't quite believe what you all said before, that Junior Martial Brother Han, despite his young age, had really killed more than a dozen Foundation Establishment stage cultivators. Now I have truly opened my eyes. Junior Martial Brother Han's strength is truly unfathomable!"

"Junior Martial Brother Han?" Senior Martial Brother Wang was stunned after hearing this.

He clearly remembered that Han Li was five or six zhang away from him at that time, so how could he have had time to save him!

Thinking of this, Senior Martial Brother Wang hurriedly turned his head to look at the place where the fighting sounds were coming from. The scene that met his eyes left him dumbfounded.

He saw that the place where he had been attacked was clearly empty, but there were sounds of fierce fighting and the low roar and violent shouting of a person, and for no reason, several sharp rays and sword qi-like things shot out, cutting countless deep or shallow grooves into the nearby ground.

It took Senior Martial Brother Wang a long time to come back to his senses.

Just as he was about to ask in great surprise, a gust of wind suddenly blew on the open space there, and then a white, semi-transparent figure appeared out of thin air, and in a strange, backward-flying posture, which gave Senior Martial Brother Wang a fright.

This figure was the half-demonic Blood Servant who had attacked him, but at this moment he looked even more demonic, his whole body appearing as if it were made of crystal, extremely transparent.

"Impossible, how could you see through my invisibility and keep up with my speed!"

On the crystal-clear face of this demonic person, one could see an expression full of shock and anger, and even a little bit of fear.

But after these words were spoken from his mouth, he let out a beast-like low roar, lunged forward swiftly, and his whole person disappeared again.

Then Han Li's cold snort came, and the stopped fighting sounds rang out again, and it seemed even more intense, and it was no longer limited to the original spot, but began to spread to the surroundings. This made Liu Jing and the others, who could only hear the sounds but not see the form, change their expressions drastically and retreat continuously.

Even the dual cultivation partner of the tragically dead female cultivator, who was eager for revenge, had no choice but to retreat some distance, for fear of being caught in the battle between Han Li and this demonic person without knowing it, and dying an unclear death.

They knew in their hearts that they could not intervene in this invisible battle for the time being.

"Look at the ground quickly!" Song Meng exclaimed.

When the others heard this, they couldn't help but look down, and as a result, everyone felt a bit horrified.

They saw that on the ground in front, a thick layer of crystal ice had condensed at some unknown time, shining under the moonlight and appearing extremely smooth.

"This demonic person is so cunning, actually turning the ground into this. This is disadvantageous to Junior Martial Brother Han!" Song Meng said with a look of anxiety on his face, feeling somewhat worried.

"Not necessarily. Although I don't know what kind of escape technique Junior Martial Brother Han is using, which also makes us unable to discover his traces, judging from the sounds, Junior Martial Brother Han has not fallen into a disadvantage. Clearly, this icy ground has little effect on him. However, the strangeness of these demonic people after transformation is truly beyond our expectations, actually causing a fellow sect member to lose her life here. I am truly to blame!" Liu Jing was silent for a while, then said slowly.

When the others heard this, and then looked at Liu Jing's heavy expression, they didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.

These people did not know that the Junior Martial Brother they were talking about—Han Li—was currently cursing inwardly while fighting the Ice Fiend.
