nà liè fèng zhǎng bǎi zhàng yǒu yú ， yī yǎn wàng qù ， lìng rén xīn jì ， jǐn jiē zhe ， dī hǒu de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， cóng liè fèng zhōng ， jìng yǒng chū shí yú tóu yāo líng lái le ，。
那裂缝长百丈有余，一眼望去，令人心悸，紧接着，低吼的声音传入耳朵，从裂缝中，竟涌出十余头妖灵来了，。
The crack was over a hundred feet long, and as one looked at it, they couldn't help but feel a chill. Soon after, a low growl reached Lin Xuan's ears. More than ten demonic spirits emerged from the crack.
zhè xiē yāo líng ， dōu shì hán qì suǒ jù ， gāo ǎi bù yī ， dàn zuì xiǎo de yí gè ， yě bǐ rén lèi xiū shì dà shàng shù bèi de yàng zi ， tǐ tài dūn shí 。
这些妖灵，都是寒气所聚，高矮不一，但最小的一个，也比人类修士大上数倍的样子，体态敦实。
These demonic spirits were all凝聚 by cold energy, varying in height, with the smallest being several times larger than an ordinary human cultivator. They had sturdy bodies.
tā men hún shēn shàng xià ， dōu pī zhe hán bīng zhàn jiǎ ， fáng yù lì bù ruò ， zhì yú shǒu shàng de wǔ qì ， zé xíng tài gè yì ， dāo qiāng jiàn jǐ ， náng kuò le shí bā bān bīng qì 。
它们浑身上下，都披着寒冰战甲，防御力不弱，至于手上的武器，则形态各异，刀枪剑戟，囊括了十八般兵器。
Their entire bodies were covered in ice armor, offering decent defense. As for their weapons, they varied greatly—swords, spears, halberds, and more, encompassing all eighteen types of weaponry.
suí hòu dà tà bù de chōng xiàng le lín xuān zhè lǐ 。
随后大踏步的冲向了林轩这里。
They charged towards Lin Xuan with great strides.
“ zhǎo sǐ ！”
“找死！”
"Suicide!"
lín xuān yī jiù shì yī zhǐ xiàng qián diǎn chū 。
林轩依旧是一指向前点出。
Lin Xuan still pointed his finger forward.
jiǔ zì xū yú jiàn lì máng dà zuò ， wéi zhe zhè xiē bīng jīng yāo líng zǎn cì qǐ lái le 。
九字须臾剑厉芒大做，围着这些冰晶妖灵攒刺起来了。
The Nine Palaces Instant Sword emitted a sharp light as it pierced the ice crystal demonic spirits in a flurry.
huò xǔ ， zhè xiē guài wù de shí lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， rán ér miàn duì jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn de fēng lì ， què zhēn yǔ sòng yáng rù hǔ kǒu xiāng chà bù duō ， hěn kuài jiù bèi jiǎo le yí gè qī líng bā luò 。
或许，这些怪物的实力非同小可，然而面对九宫须臾剑的锋利，却真与送羊入虎口相差不多，很快就被搅了一个七零八落。
Perhaps these monsters were formidable, but facing the keen edge of the Nine Palaces Instant Sword, they truly resembled sending sheep into a tiger's mouth. They soon disintegrated into chaos under its attack.
nà hou shí de kǎi jiǎ zài jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn miàn qián gēn běn jiù yǒu rú zhǐ hú 。
那hou实的铠甲在九宫须臾剑面前根本就有如纸糊。
Their heavy armor was utterly useless against the Nine Palaces Instant Sword.
zhàn dòu kě yǐ shuō yí gè zhào miàn jiù fēn chū le shèng fù 。
战斗可以说一个照面就分出了胜负。
The battle could be said to have been decided in an instant.
duì fāng hái zhǔn bèi wán shén me bǎ xì ne ？
对方还准备玩什么把戏呢？
What tricks did the opponent still have up their sleeve?
lín xuān nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， jiù tīng jiàn yī zhèn “ sōu sōu ” de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， tā méi tou yí zhòu ， xún shēng zhuǎn guò tóu lú ， zhǐ jiàn nà yuán běn jiù pò suì de bīng miàn ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， yǒu gèng duō de liè wén zài shàng miàn fú xiàn 。
林轩脑海中念头尚未转过，就听见一阵“嗖嗖”的声音传入耳朵，他眉头一皱，循声转过头颅，只见那原本就破碎的冰面，此时此刻，有更多的裂纹在上面浮现。
Before Lin Xuan's thoughts were fully formed, he heard a series of "swoosh" sounds. His brow furrowed as he turned his head towards the source. The already cracked ice surface now had more cracks appearing on it.
suí hòu dà xiǎo bù yī de bīng kuài ， zài yī guǐ yì lì liàng de zuò yòng xià ， huǎn huǎn piāo fú le qǐ lái ， shù liàng yuè lái yuè duō ， bìng qiě fēi kuài de xuán zhuǎn ， jiā zá zhe hán lěng de qì liú ， xíng chéng le yī gǔ xiōng yǒng dì bào fēng 。
随后大小不一的冰块，在一诡异力量的作用下，缓缓漂浮了起来，数量越来越多，并且飞快的旋转，夹杂着寒冷的气流，形成了一股汹涌地暴风。
Then, in an eerie force, various-sized ice blocks slowly floated up, their numbers increasing rapidly and rotating swiftly, creating a fierce storm of cold air.
duì ， jiù shì bào fēng ！
对，就是暴风！
Yes, a storm!
nà xiē dà xiǎo bù yī de bīng kuài yuán běn jiù xíng zhuàng gè yì ， cǐ shí cǐ kè ， líng jiǎo gèng shì fēn míng yǐ jí ， bǐ dāo jiàn hái yào fēng lì ， xuán zhuǎn zhe xiàng lín xuān xí juǎn ér qù ，。
那些大小不一的冰块原本就形状各异，此时此刻，菱角更是分明以极，比刀剑还要锋利，旋转着像林轩席卷而去，。
The irregularly shaped ice blocks, sharpened to a point, rotated towards Lin Xuan like a wave.
shà shí jiān ， lín xuān shēn qián bǎi yú zhàng guǎng de kōng jiān dōu bèi zhè zhǒng kě pà de bīng kuài tián mǎn ， zhǐ wén chī chī shēng dà zuò ， nà shēng shì dàng zhēn lìng rén chēng mù jié shé 。
霎时间，林轩身前百余丈广的空间都被这种可怕的冰块填满，只闻嗤嗤声大做，那声势当真令人瞠目结舌。
In just a moment, the space before him was filled with these terrifying ice blocks. The hissing sound was deafening, truly astonishing.
lín xuān yě bèi xià le yī dà tiào bù jí duō xiǎng ， shēn shǒu yì diǎn ， líng lì yǔ tiān dì yuán qì xiāng hún hé ， dùn shí níng jù chū le yī piàn guāng mù ， jiāng qí zhē dé yán yán shí shí de 。
林轩也被吓了一大跳不及多想，伸手一点，灵力与天地元气相hún合，顿时凝聚出了一片光幕，将其遮得严严实实的。
Lin Xuan was startled and didn't have time to think. He extended his hand, merging his spirit energy with the primordial qi of heaven and earth, forming a light screen that covered everything tightly.
tóng shí zài yī zhāng kǒu yī tuán wǔ sè mó yàn fēi lüè ér chū ， fēi dào guāng mù biǎo miàn ， què biàn chéng le zhàn lán zhī sè， suí hòu pī pā yī shēng bào liè kāi le 。
同时再一张口一团五sè魔焰飞掠而出，飞到光幕表面，却变成了湛蓝之sè，随后噼啪一声爆裂开了。
At the same time, he spat out a ball of five-colored demonic flames, which turned blue upon reaching the light screen and then exploded with a crackle.
shà shí jiān ， kě pà de zhàn lán sè hán qì fēng yōng ér chū ， bìng shèn tòu jìn guāng mù ， lán sè bīng céng shùn jiān màn yán kāi lái ， biàn bù le zhěng gè guāng mù 。 bú yòng shuō yǒu le huàn líng tiān huǒ de xiāng zhù ， qí fáng yù lì tí gāo le xǔ duō 。
霎时间，可怕的湛蓝sè寒气蜂拥而出，并渗透进光幕，蓝sè冰层瞬间蔓延开来，遍布了整个光幕。不用说有了幻灵天火的相助，其防御力提高了许多。
Instantly, terrifying azure cold air surged forth, seeping into the light screen. Blue ice layers rapidly spread across it, covering the entire screen. With the assistance of Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire, its defensive capabilities had significantly improved.
jǐn jiē zhe ， pī pā yǔ hōng lōng zhī shēng jiāo cuò ， què shì nà xiē dà xiǎo bù yī de bīng kuài yǐ jīng shā dào le 。
紧接着，噼啪与轰隆之声jiāo错，却是那些大小不一的冰块已经杀到了。
Pops and rumbling sounds intermingled as the various-sized ice blocks approached.
zhè xiē hán bīng běn jiù jiān yìng yǐ jí ， zài jiā shàng shù liàng zhòng duō yǐ jí gāo sù xuán zhuǎn suǒ dài lái de wēi lì zēng fú ， yì bān de fáng yù bǎo wù kǒng pà hái zhēn jiē bú zhù 。
这些寒冰本就坚硬以极，再加上数量众多以及高速旋转所带来的威力增幅，一般的防御宝物恐怕还真接不住。
These ice blocks were already incredibly hard, and with their numerous numbers and the amplified power from rapid rotation, ordinary protective treasures might not withstand them.
rán ér lín xuān cǐ kè de zuò fǎ shì yǐ dú gōng dú 。
然而林轩此刻的做法是以毒攻毒。
However, Lin Xuan's approach was to use poison against poison. The cold air from Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire could bring unexpected effects.
huàn líng tiān huǒ de hán qì néng dài lái yì xiǎng bù dào de xiào guǒ 。
幻灵天火的寒气能带来意想不到的效果。
Although the light screen surface's ice layer was shattered upon contact, a single hand gesture caused blue light to flow across the ice wall, instantly mending the cracked ice layers as if they had never been broken.
jǐn guǎn gāng yī jiē chù ， nà guāng mù biǎo miàn de bīng céng ， jiù bèi zá le gè qiān chuāng bǎi kǒng dàn lín xuān jǐn jǐn shì shǒu yī wò ， yī dào fǎ jué dǎ chū bīng bì shàng lán máng liú zhuǎn ， yǐ jīng jūn liè de bīng céng shùn jiān jiù mí hé rú chū 。
尽管刚一接触，那光幕表面的冰层，就被砸了个千疮百孔但林轩仅仅是手一握，一道法诀打出冰壁上蓝芒流转，已经龟裂的冰层瞬间就弥合如初。
The storm of snowflakes couldn't do anything about Lin Xuan. However, snowflakes continued to fall like goose feathers. When they condensed in the middle, ice spears emerged...
zhè màn tiān de bào fēng xuě yě ná lín xuān shì wú kě nài hé rán ér tóu dǐng shàng ， é máo bān de dà xuě hái zài bù tíng piāo luò ， nà xiē xuě huā wǎng zhōng jiān yī hé ， yī gān gān de bīng máo jiù fú xiàn ér chū ……，
这漫天的暴风雪也拿林轩是无可奈何然而头顶上，鹅máo般的大雪还在不停飘落，那些雪huā往中间一合，一杆杆的冰矛就浮现而出……，
Their surfaces shimmered with cold light.
biǎo miàn hán máng shǎn shuò 。
表面寒芒闪烁。
Lin Xuan's face turned pale. Although such things could not harm him, it seemed endless.
lín xuān de liǎn sè yǒu xiē nán kàn le 。
林轩的脸sè有些难看了。
With Lin Xuan's nature, there was no such thing as passive defense. But now, his divine sense and Heavenly Phoenix Divine Eyes couldn't pinpoint the old monster's location.
suī rán zhè yàng de dōng xī zài gōng guò lái ， yě ná zì jǐ wú kě nài hé ， rán ér què sì hū méi wán méi liǎo le ，。
虽然这样的东西再攻过来，也拿自己无可奈何，然而却似乎没完没了了，。
Unable to find the opponent's whereabouts, Lin Xuan was helpless but unwilling to continue passively. He continued to defend against these varied attacks while extending his divine sense to carefully probe for the source of the attacking power.
yǐ lín xuān de xìng gé ， nǎ yǒu bèi dòng ái dǎ yī shuō ， kě xiàn zài ， bù guǎn shì shén shí hái shì tiān fèng shén mù ， dōu wú fǎ xún zhǎo dào nà lǎo guài wù jiū jìng zài hé chù 。
以林轩的xìng格，哪有被动挨打一说，可现在，不管是神识还是天凤神目，都无法寻找到那老怪物究竟在何处。
But there were no results!
lián duì fāng de xíng zōng dōu bù qīng chǔ ， lín xuān zì rán shì tú huàn nài hé ， dàn tā jué bù yuàn zhè yàng jì xù bèi dòng 。
连对方的行踪都不清楚，林轩自然是徒唤奈何，但他绝不愿这样继续被动。
Could he only sit and wait?
yí miàn dǐ dǎng zhe huā yàng bǎi chū de zhāo shù ， yī biān jì xù jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， xiǎo xīn de tàn chá zhe yǐn dǎo gōng jī de fǎ lì lái yuán zhī chù 。
一面抵挡着huā样百出的招数，一边继续将神识放出，小心的探查着引导攻击的法力来源之处。
Lin Xuan was not willing to accept this.
rán ér sī háo suǒ huò yě wú ！
然而丝毫所获也无！
The blood mist from the old monster's self-destruction had merged with the ice plain, creating such an effect. Could it be that he had already merged with the ice plain, allowing him to control the ice blocks and cold air to attack himself?
nán dào jiù zhǐ néng zhè yàng zuò yǐ dài bì me ？
难道就只能这样坐以待毙么？
These thoughts raced through Lin Xuan's mind. Although uncertain about their validity, they were worth a try.
lín xuān dāng rán bù gān xīn le 。
林轩当然不甘心了。
With this in mind, Lin Xuan silently extended his hand, sending a spell towards the sky.
duì fāng zì bào hòu de xuè wù róng rù bīng yuán ， cái yǒu le zhè yàng de xiào guǒ ， nà tā yǔ bīng yuán ， shì fǒu yǐ jīng hé èr wéi yī ， suǒ yǐ cái néng cào zòng bīng kuài yǔ hán qì gōng jī zì jǐ ？
对方自爆后的血雾融入冰原，才有了这样的效果，那他与冰原，是否已经合二为一，所以才能cào纵冰块与寒气攻击自己？
Instantly, the floating Nine Palaces Instant Swords moved.
lín xuān nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， suī rán bù zhī dào zhè yàng de tuī cè ， shì fǒu yǒu dào lǐ ， dàn zhì shǎo zhí de yī shì 。
林轩脑海中念头转过，虽然不知道这样的推测，是否有道理，但至少值得一试。
A flash of light revealed them multiplying into three, then doubling again as they continued to multiply.
xīn zhōng rú cǐ xiǎng zhe ， lín xuān mò bù zuò shēng de yī yáng shǒu ， yī dào fǎ jué dǎ xiàng qián fāng de bàn kōng zhī chù 。
心中如此想着，林轩默不做声的一扬手，一道法诀打向前方的半空之处。
The area around ten feet wide was filled with silver-shimmering immortal swords, layer upon layer like ripples on water.
dùn shí ， piāo fú zhe de jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn dòng qǐ lái le 。
顿时，漂浮着的九宫须臾剑动起来了。
"Fall!"
zhǐ jiàn guāng huá yī shǎn ， yǐ yī huà wèi sān ， suí hòu zài yī shǎn shuò ， shù liàng yòu zēng jiā le sān bèi zhī duō 。
只见光华一闪，已一化为三，随后再一闪烁，数量又增加了三倍之多。
Lin Xuan whispered, pointing his finger. The Nine Palaces Instant Swords scattered like fish escaping in all directions.
fāng yuán shí yú zhàng zhī chù ， dōu bèi yín guāng shǎn shǎn de xiān jiàn gěi tián mǎn le ， céng céng dié dié ， rú tóng bōlàng yì bān 。
方圆十余丈之处，都被银光闪闪的仙剑给填满了，层层叠叠，如同bōlàng一般。
In an instant, the space hundreds of feet around was filled with flashes of silver light and sword shadows. Countless immortal swords hacked and slashed without any pattern.
“ luò ！”
“落！”
Since he couldn't locate the opponent's whereabouts, using such a clumsy method to force him out would suffice.
lín xuān yī shēng qīng hē ， tóng shí yī dào fǎ jué yóu shǒu zhǐ jiān diǎn chū ， suí zhe tā de dòng zuò ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn rú sì sàn ér táo de yú qún yì bān ， yī hòng ér sàn 。
林轩一声轻喝，同时一道法诀由手指间点出，随着他的动作，九宫须臾剑如四散而逃的鱼群一般，一哄而散。
Even if he had merged with the ice plain, destroying everything here wouldn't allow him to remain unscathed.
shà shí jiān ， fāng yuán shù bǎi zhàng de kōng jiān ， zhǐ jiàn yín guāng kuáng shǎn ， dào chù dōu shì jiàn yǐng zài jishè mí màn ， shù yǐ bǎi jì de xiān jiàn ， háo wú guī zé de héng kǎn shù pī le qǐ lái ，。
霎时间，方圆数百丈的空间，只见银光狂闪，到处都是剑影在jishè弥漫，数以百计的仙剑，毫无规则的横砍竖劈了起来，。
The silvery light was like mercury pouring down, truly beautiful. However, its destructive power was unimaginable.
jì rán bù zhī duì fāng de zōng jì zài hé chù ， nà jiù yòng zhè yàng de bèn bàn fǎ jiāng tā gěi bī chū lái hǎo le 。
既然不知对方的踪迹在何处，那就用这样的笨办法将他给bī出来好了。
In just a few breaths, the nearby ice plain was hacked into pieces. All the ice layers within hundreds of feet were destroyed, and snowflakes flew everywhere. Lin Xuan felt much less pressure, but he wasn't satisfied. Another finger gesture sent the swords even further away. Soon, rumbling sounds filled his ears as several ice mountains collapsed.
jiǎ rú tā shì róng rù le bīng yuán yě méi yǒu guān xì ， jiāng zhè lǐ de yī qiè huǐ qù ， jiù bù xiāng xìn tā hái néng gòu háo fā wú sǔn de dài zài nà lǐ 。
假如他是融入了冰原也没有关系，将这里的一切毁去，就不相信他还能够毫发无损的待在那里。
Whether it was a stroke of luck or not, at that moment, the attacks against him stopped.
yín sè de guāng huá ， rú shuǐ yín xiè dì ， dàng zhēn shì měi lì yǐ jí ， rán ér tā dài lái de pò huài lì ， què shì bù kě xiǎng xiàng dì 。
银sè的光华，如水银泻地，当真是美丽以极，然而它带来的破坏力，却是不可想象地。
"Phew."
jǐn jǐn jǐ xī de gōng fu ， zhè fù jìn de bīng yuán jiù bèi pī kǎn le gè qī líng bā luò ， fāng yuán shù bǎi zhàng de fàn wéi nèi ， suǒ yǒu de bīng céng ， dōu bèi pò huài diào le ，jidàng qǐ de bīng xuě màn tiān fēi wǔ ， lín xuān gǎn shòu dào de yā lì ， guǒ rán shì xiǎo le xǔ duō ， bù guò tā bìng bù mǎn zú ， yòu shì yī zhǐ diǎn chū ， dùn shí ， xiān jiàn yòu fēi xiàng gèng yuǎn zhī chù ， hěn kuài ， hōng lōng lóng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lián nà jǐ zuò lián mián qǐ fú de bīng shān yě bēng tā diào le 。 bù zhī dào shì zhēn bèi lín xuān dǔ duì le ， hái shì qiǎo hé ， qià zài nà yī kè ， zhēn duì tā de gōng jī ， yě tíng xià lái le 。
仅仅几息的功夫，这附近的冰原就被劈砍了个七零八落，方圆数百丈的范围内，所有的冰层，都被破坏掉了，jidàng起的冰雪漫天飞舞，林轩感受到的压力，果然是小了许多，不过他并不满足，又是一指点出，顿时，仙剑又飞向更远之处，很快，轰隆隆的声音传入耳朵，连那几座连绵起伏的冰山也崩塌掉了。不知道是真被林轩赌对了，还是巧合，恰在那一刻，针对他的攻击，也停下来了。
Lin Xuan exhaled and visibly relaxed.
“ hū 。”
“呼。”
However, things were far from over. At this moment, the old ice monster's voice reached his ears: "Little guy, do you think such an attack is useful to me..."
lín xuān tǔ chū yī kǒu xiōng zhōng de zhuó qì ， liǎn shàng de biǎo qíng ， míng xiǎn bǐ gāng gāng qīng sōng le yī xiē 。
林轩吐出一口xiōng中的浊气，脸上的表情，明显比刚刚轻松了一些。
Lin Xuan was startled but didn't immediately refute. Instead, he maximized his divine sense. The voice seemed to anticipate this move and was very elusive, appearing and disappearing unpredictably. Even with Lin Xuan's strong divine sense, it couldn't be locked down.
rán ér shì qíng bìng wèi jié shù ， jiù zài cǐ kè ， bīng lǎo yāo de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ：“ xiǎo jiā huo ， nǐ yǐ wéi zhè yàng de gōng jī ， duì lǎo fū yǒu yòng me ……。”
然而事情并未结束，就在此刻，冰老妖的声音传入耳朵：“小家伙，你以为这样的攻击，对老夫有用么……。”
Instead, the voice added a mocking tone: "Little guy, don't waste your efforts. I said I would extract your soul and spirit. If you're wise, submit willingly..."
lín xuān yī jīng ， bìng méi yǒu qù máng zhe fǎn bó ， ér shì zuì dà xiàn dù de jiāng shén shí fàng chū ， kě duì fāng fǎng fú zǎo fáng zhe zhè yī zhe ， nà shēng yīn fēi cháng de piāo hū ， hū qián hū hòu ， hū zuǒ hū yòu ， jí biàn yǐ lín xuān de shén shí qiáng dù ， yě wán quán wú fǎ jiāng tā suǒ dìng bǔ zhuō 。
林轩一惊，并没有去忙着反驳，而是最大限度的将神识放出，可对方仿佛早防着这一着，那声音非常的飘忽，忽前忽后，忽左忽右，即便以林轩的神识强度，也完全无法将他锁定捕捉。
Lin Xuan pursed his lips. He wouldn't believe such threats unless he was mad!
fǎn ér fǎng fú zhī dào tā zài zuò shén me ， nà shēng yīn zhōng ， tiān jiā le jǐ fēn cháo nòng：“ xiǎo jiā huo ， bù yòng bái fèi lì qì le ， wǒ shuō guò yào jiāng nǐ chōu hún liàn pò ， nǐ ruò shí xiàng de ， jiù guāi guāi de shù shǒu jiù fù ……。”
反而仿佛知道他在做什么，那声音中，添加了几分嘲nòng：“小家伙，不用白费力气了，我说过要将你chōu魂炼魄，你若识相的，就乖乖的束手就缚……。”
"Did you think I was just scaring you, Lin boy? In my domain, I make the rules, and you'll regret it."
The crack was over a hundred feet long, and as one looked at it, they couldn't help but feel a chill. Soon after, a low growl reached Lin Xuan's ears. More than ten demonic spirits emerged from the crack.
These demonic spirits were all凝聚 by cold energy, varying in height, with the smallest being several times larger than an ordinary human cultivator. They had sturdy bodies.
Their entire bodies were covered in ice armor, offering decent defense. As for their weapons, they varied greatly—swords, spears, halberds, and more, encompassing all eighteen types of weaponry.
They charged towards Lin Xuan with great strides.
"Suicide!"
Lin Xuan still pointed his finger forward.
The Nine Palaces Instant Sword emitted a sharp light as it pierced the ice crystal demonic spirits in a flurry.
Perhaps these monsters were formidable, but facing the keen edge of the Nine Palaces Instant Sword, they truly resembled sending sheep into a tiger's mouth. They soon disintegrated into chaos under its attack.
Their heavy armor was utterly useless against the Nine Palaces Instant Sword.
The battle could be said to have been decided in an instant.

Then, in an eerie force, various-sized ice blocks slowly floated up, their numbers increasing rapidly and rotating swiftly, creating a fierce storm of cold air.
Yes, a storm!
The irregularly shaped ice blocks, sharpened to a point, rotated towards Lin Xuan like a wave.

Lin Xuan was startled and didn't have time to think. He extended his hand, merging his spirit energy with the primordial qi of heaven and earth, forming a light screen that covered everything tightly.
At the same time, he spat out a ball of five-colored demonic flames, which turned blue upon reaching the light screen and then exploded with a crackle.
Instantly, terrifying azure cold air surged forth, seeping into the light screen. Blue ice layers rapidly spread across it, covering the entire screen. With the assistance of Illusory Spirit Heaven Fire, its defensive capabilities had significantly improved.

The storm of snowflakes couldn't do anything about Lin Xuan. However, snowflakes continued to fall like goose feathers. When they condensed in the middle, ice spears emerged...
Their surfaces shimmered with cold light.

Instead, the voice added a mocking tone: "Little guy, don't waste your efforts. I said I would extract your soul and spirit. If you're wise, submit willingly..."
Lin Xuan pursed his lips. He wouldn't believe such threats unless he was mad!
"Did you think I was just scaring you, Lin boy? In my domain, I make the rules, and you'll regret it."
