Chapter 3395: Snowy Mountain Balrog

This kind of sage-level relic that can only be used by assimilating oneself is more prone to errors than other types of relics, so taking advantage of the fact that the ancient giant palm form can still be maintained, the 9th-Ring doom believer hurriedly signaled his two injured companions to leave quickly.

But Xia De wouldn't wait for them to leave. Although the giant arm deformed by the relic blocked the center of the canyon and was difficult to destroy, he took Xie Wei's hand and took a step forward, appearing directly behind that huge palm.

The light in Xie Wei's hand, which had been accumulating power before the space movement, immediately pierced the heads of the injured 5th-Ring and 7th-Ring sorcerers. Although the 9th-Ring sorcerer barely manipulated the glove to deform again to block the attack of the 12th-tier Great Witch, the glove was completely unusable at this moment.

The relic was even on the verge of losing control, and more than half of his body was fused with that glove.

Although Xia De was annoyed that he still had to deal with the big trouble of the sage-level relic losing control, he still held the Moonlight Greatsword and charged forward, then raised his sword and fell—

Hum~

"Hmm?"

The greatsword didn't cut off the other party's head, but instead hit an invisible thread in front of the cultist that couldn't be seen by either the naked eye or inspiration. In the hum~ sound, the thread didn't break, but the Moonlight Greatsword was shattered in the counter-shock.

And the strange echo caused by that "thread" afterward even made Xia De have a quite bad idea. The cultist who was barely controlling the glove showed a relaxed smile on his face, and Xia De also realized what this might be:

"It wouldn't be the thread of the 【Prophecy Spinning Wheel】, would it?"

The "thread" disappeared into the air. Xia De, who was stunned for a moment, reached out and shot a 【Moonlight Ray】 forward, wanting to pursue, but the string of fate that had been plucked would no longer give him a chance.

Suddenly the earth shook, and the moonlight shot out was shifted in position with the shaking of Xia De's body. Xia De, thinking it was an earthquake, looked down at his feet. In the next second, a giant obsidian hand burning with fire drilled out of the soil under Xia De's feet and punched Xia De away.

Then, in the rumbling vibration of the earth and the snowy mountain, a huge burning monster tore through the earth with raging flames and drilled out from the crack that seemed to connect to the abyss under the ground.

It just existed there, as if it wanted to ignite the entire space. The fourteen-foot-tall body carried suffocating high temperatures, and the air that had already cooled down groaned, twisted, and boiled around it. Even just looking at it was like looking at a hot wok, and the vision was scorched and blurred.

The inhuman torso was composed of pure obsidian and conceptualized scorching heat, but looking closely, it wasn't covered with fire above the deep darkness under the fire, but surging lava—golden red, incandescent white, orange yellow, flowing, pulsing, and splashing like living things on its strong muscle knots.

Every movement was accompanied by lava dripping, sizzling on the frost-covered stones, and then the stones melted and rose with thick smoke carrying the stench of sulfur and burning flesh.

Xie Wei couldn't care about the cultists who took the bodies of their companions and fled. She looked at the burning monster with wide eyes. Even with the knowledge of a 12th-tier witch, it was hard for her to imagine encountering this thing in a snowy mountain environment:

"Demon—Balrog!"

Although it was not an evil spirit demon, just an alien demon.

The head was like a huge twisted goat skull, and two spiral-curved giant horns, like red-hot branding irons, pierced out from the temples, the tips almost scorching the air. Where the eyes should have been, there were only two boiling, white-hot lava pits.

When its gaze projected toward the human witch with pure malice, two scorching rays attacked her directly from the Balrog's eyes.

And although Xie Wei was very surprised, she still reacted immediately. A twisted light wall appeared above her head with her lifting hand, refracting the Balrog's scorching rays toward the distant mountains, and then breaking the cliff they had just flown down from in the violent explosion sound.

It wanted to attack Xie Wei again, but suddenly looked up to the front, and a shadow of an existence taller than it had already covered it.

Xia De, who had just been knocked away, reappeared in the form of a giant. As the Balrog looked up and saw Xia De, Xia De's palms pushed forward, and a huge amount of spirit interfered with the world in the form of elements, which then transformed into cold ice-blue light marks:

"Arcane Art—Freezing Ray! Why is there a Balrog in the snowy mountain!"

Like an ice-blue light cannon blooming from his hands, Xia De in giant form enhanced his spellcasting in all aspects, and the power of 【Freezing Ray】 was increased several times.

So the demon roared, holding a fire sword and a long whip with its arms crossed in front of its chest, and then the translucent fire-red energy shell layer faced Xia De's attack.

The shell layer resisted for a few seconds, and the Balrog also retreated rapidly in the canyon during this process. As the energy shell layer shattered, it also opened its giant mouth that seemed to be burning the abyss, and the fire-red light stream faced Xia De's 【Freezing Ray】.

"Witch Secret Art—Holy Catastrophe!"

As Xie Wei raised her hands high, a huge holy golden light pillar from the high sky covered in drifting snow directly bombarded the Balrog that was confronting Xia De. Xia De's 【Freezing Ray】 hadn't caused damage yet, and this holy light pillar, which specifically restrained demons and undead, directly shattered half of the demon's body.

And the lack of body led to the lag of energy output, which directly led to 【Freezing Ray】 suppressing the demon's fire and directly hitting its chest.

The ice-blue fatal freezing ray had no physical destructive power, but the coldness that froze everything extinguished the fire burning on the surface of the Balrog's obsidian-like body. But in the Balrog's roar, the unimaginably huge black iron giant sword held in its right hand emitted a dark red light at this moment.

The heart, like a dormant volcano, was ignited at this moment. Even if the sword edge swung by the heavily injured Balrog hadn't fallen yet, the violent heat wave almost made Xie Wei, who had just landed on Xia De's shoulder, unable to stand firm.

Xia De summoned the "Moonlight Greatsword" to prove his sword was stronger again, and the Great Witch of Light cast a spell to summon a light wall to block other possible situations.

But at this moment, two familiar "Ang~" calls came from the sky. Then, before the demon's giant sword fell, two pure white holy beasts rushed over from left to right like white light marks. As their figures crossed, the golden unicorn cut off the demon's right arm holding the giant sword.

The right arm and the giant sword fell into the canyon with a rumbling sound, and the white light stopped flashing. Aili and Little Liana, with serious expressions, spread their holy wings and hovered in the air.

Alien demons are the great enemies of unicorns. Although it is possible that the ancestors of Aili and Little Liana hadn't seen demons for many years, when the two unicorns saw this Balrog at this time, the instinct sleeping in the holy blood still made them awaken all knowledge about "Balrog".

Emilia was sitting on Little Liana at this time, holding a "tree staff" and had just finished casting the acceleration spell. The reason why the two unicorns flew so fast also had her reason.

But it seemed that the little fairy should have just happened to be playing in the snow with the unicorns nearby, otherwise, they wouldn't have come so fast when Xia De and the cultists tacitly shielded the surrounding sound and light at the beginning of the battle.

The unicorns raised their horns and "Ang~" again, making a call before charging, turning into white streams of light and crashing into the demon whose arm was regenerating. Xia De also summoned the ice storm again, and Xie Wei released the sky full of light after summoning the fate ring, preparing to seal the demon here.

At this moment, the fire on the surface of the tall Balrog had all been extinguished, leaving only the jumping flames visible inside the black stone at the heart position.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

It didn't dodge anyone's attack, letting its body shatter and be entangled by light. It was just that the beating speed of the Balrog's heart was getting faster and louder. Xia De, who felt this scene was inexplicably familiar, understood immediately:

"This thing is going to self-destruct!"

Emilia immediately raised the tree staff to reverse time, and the light emitted by the unicorns' horns tried their best to suppress this terrifying power. The light formed a hexahedron in Xie Wei's hands, and the seal formed by the light was accelerating to wrap the demon in it.

And Xia De originally wanted to continue using the power of ice, but just as he wanted to cast a spell after raising his hand, he heard a voice calling his name from far behind.

The snowy mountain earth under his feet was almost completely integrated with him at this moment. Then Xia De felt as if he had sat on the "Crystal Throne" again. It was just that he felt like the forest itself at that time, and at this moment he felt like the snowy mountain itself.

He grabbed forward with his palms and then pressed down fiercely. In the eyes of the unicorns and the girls, Xia De seemed to have cast an arcane art that no one had ever seen before.

At this moment, all the spirits were supplied by the snowy mountain under his feet. The arcane art "Summon Big Snowball" summoned a huge ice peak a hundred meters high. The ice peak fell, and in the tremor of the earth, suppressed the demon that was about to self-destruct under that "mountain peak".

Then Xia De, whose figure became taller and taller, stepped forward, opened his arms, and held the mountain peak with his palms:

"Arcane Art—Black Moon Mark!"

The largest Black Moon Mark to date appeared on that ice mountain, and then with the whistling of the wind in the mountains, this ice mountain and the demon that was about to self-destruct suppressed below all disappeared under this annihilation-natured power.

It didn't even leave any spoils for Xia De.

The crisis of the demon's self-destruction was thus resolved. When the unicorns landed in the canyon where the terrain had undergone huge changes, Xie Wei had already supported Xia De, who was panting due to excessive spellcasting.

He said breathlessly:

"I can finally understand how the Fatu people beat back the Seer Society back then. If they can 'invite the mountain to possess them' at any time on this island like I just did, the seers wouldn't be able to beat them no matter how powerful they are." ===== CHAPTER 3396 =====
