Leng Leng did not dare to be negligent. She did not hold back at all. Before her opponent's scythe-like forelimbs slashed down vertically, she used her most powerful Ice Prison Mirror without hesitation. Her surroundings were suddenly filled with extreme coldness. Her opponent's two black scythes that were closest to her were instantly covered with a layer of ice crystals. Even his movements were significantly slower.
Insects were creatures that were extremely afraid of the cold, and mantises were no exception. Even this black praying mantis, which was comparable to a golden core practitioner, had the weakest resistance to the cold. From a certain perspective, it was countered by Leng Leng's Ice Shatter Physique. This was because of the difference in levels, and once Leng Leng broke through to golden core, it wouldn't be a threat at all.
It was a pity that Leng Leng was only at foundation completion, and the Ice Prison Mirror didn't freeze her completely. It only slowed the black praying mantis down by more than seventy percent!
That was more than enough. Leng Leng took the chance to retreat and blend into the formation, using herself as the arrow. "Third Strategy!"
"Understood!" Everyone replied. What Lin Yi gave them was a typical defensive formation, but it wasn't a turtle shell that only defended and didn't attack. There were a few different strategies, and the third strategy was to move around and pin down the enemy.
Defending passively would only put them at a disadvantage. Using offense as defense, moving around when the opportunity presented itself was even more invulnerable.
With Leng Leng as the arrow, Lingshan, Wu Chentian, Yu Bing, and the others as the backbone, and Ziyu and the others as back-up, this formation was much more powerful than what they had on paper. None of them were burdens, and all of them were important members.
This was especially true now that the Ice Prison Mirror's effect was so strong that the Black Praying Mantises, which were brimming with murderous intent, suddenly slowed down. Everyone was like fish in water as they moved around the Black Praying Mantises. Every time they attacked, they would retreat, and every time they attacked, they would leave. They didn't give the Black Praying Mantises any chance to retaliate. Even when the black praying mantis tried to attack, it was blocked by the defense team, unable to hurt them at all.
"You despicable and shameless human scum! All you know how to do is sneak around, do you dare fight me head on?! "The black praying mantis was going crazy from anger.
Although the power of each of their attacks was far from being strong. However, its carapace was much weaker than usual after being frozen by the Ice Prison Mirror. Every time it was struck, it would leave behind a few shallow wounds. One or two would be fine, but ants could bite an elephant to death. Even the slightest injury would be fatal if it accumulated for too long. What's more, the damage caused by the crowd could only be considered small, but it wasn't so small that it was negligible.
"Idiot! This is called human intelligence! " Chentian grinned. They were very familiar with this tactic, and almost all the spirit beasts blocking their way were killed this way. It seemed that it was also effective against golden core spirit beasts.
Although they dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-dilly-d
"Everyone, pick up the pace. I have a bad feeling about this," Leng Leng said softly. Using the wandering tactic would inevitably lead to a protracted battle. Based on previous experience, there was only one result, and that was when the opponent suffered enough and escaped. In order to maintain the formation, they did not have the ability to chase after them.
Of course, this wasn't a bad outcome for the group. After all, if they really forced the enemy to a dead end, it would definitely struggle at all costs, and they might have to pay the price of death.
Other than that, there was another risk. That was, a long delay would bring trouble.
Just like last time, they were only facing a complete foundation establishment spirit beast. They could have easily taken it down, but because of the long delay, they attracted another late stage foundation establishment spirit beast. Being surrounded from both front and back, Leng Leng had a bad feeling about this, and now that feeling appeared again.
Hearing Leng Leng's words, everyone's heart skipped a beat, and they picked up the pace with all their might. They only wanted to chase this black praying mantis away as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, the black praying mantis's leg armor had a few wounds, and it was broken by Leng Leng's kick. Although losing a leg didn't affect it as much as a human, it still scared the hell out of it, "A bunch of lunatics!"
In order to break its leg, Leng Leng's group paid the price of two people, including Yu Bing, getting injured. This was completely different from the way they fought just now. They were basically exchanging injury for injury, and it wasn't an exaggeration to say that they were lunatics.
Unfortunately, the black praying mantis was an existence comparable to a golden core spirit beast, and the way they fought would only make it angry. Unless they could seriously injure it, it would be impossible to scare it away like this.
However, Leng Leng's group didn't slow down their pace, instead, they worked together to speed up their pace. They didn't know if their premonition was accurate, but as long as there was a one in ten thousand possibility, they couldn't ignore it. They had to chase this black praying mantis away as soon as possible, or else if there were other strong spirit beasts surrounding them and attacked them from both sides, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, most of the time, the more impatient one was, the more things would go against one's will. Just like now, Leng Leng's group had increased their pace, but the effect was barely satisfactory. They had paid the price, but they still couldn't make their opponent waver. Instead, they were getting angrier and angrier, and it was getting harder to deal with.
"We can't go on like this …" Leng Leng was anxious, she knew that she had made a huge mistake. She believed that if it was Lin Yi, he wouldn't have sped up his pace and started attacking in such a situation. In the end, she still lacked actual combat experience, she was too green.
Leng Leng clenched her teeth. Since Lin Yi had entrusted everyone's safety to her, she had to bring everyone out of here. No matter what kind of danger they were in, she had to shoulder it alone!
