The hundred or so cultivators gathered on the swamp island gave everyone a false sense of security. These people had all escaped from the Frozen Caves, so it would be difficult for them to leave on their own. However, it was even more difficult for them to work together. By the time they wasted their time arguing like headless flies, danger was already upon them, forcing them to make a decision.
The water monsters attracted by the Ghost King Pills had already surrounded the swamp island. When the light barrier was broken, the frigid winds from the Frozen Caves turned the Drowning Swamp into a land of ice. Hundreds and thousands of ghosts were temporarily frozen outside, unable to advance. However, as they slowly adapted to the cold environment, the encirclement shrunk again.
The densely packed ghosts stepped on the frozen surface of the swamp island, forcing the hundred or so cultivators trapped there to retreat. Many of them had exhausted their spiritual energy and lost all their equipment on the way here. They were already on the verge of death. Now that they were faced with such a large number of ghosts, no one had the courage to fight anymore.
Seeing this, Jia Gang, who was still arguing with the others, could only sigh. "I'm also stupid. Why should I waste my time with these incompetent idiots? Why don't I do something else with this bit of time? "With that said, he turned into a puff of black smoke and flew back to the Frozen Caves. The tall and sturdy zombie behind him quickly followed behind him.
As Jia Gang left, many others who had the same thought as him also left. They would rather fight the Ghost King guarding the second layer of the Gates of Hell again than stay here and die of exhaustion.
Zhou Qingfeng stood beside Young Master Ye and asked coldly in a low voice, "Young Master Ye, I heard that only the Ghost King who has passed the Gates of Hell can enter the second layer to avoid disaster. You and your wife should already have a way to pass. Let's go, time waits for no one. "
The Ye couple looked at each other again. Young Master Ye wanted to say something else, but his wife cut him short, "If we want to pass, we have to follow Jin Dian and put in more effort. Otherwise, if the few of us end up like these people, we'll be harming ourselves and others. "
"I know what's important. If we can join hands, we'll join hands. If not, we'll split up. Isn't that the case with these cultivators? " Zhou Qingfeng chuckled and rode the giant wolf. He flashed the Saber of Light and shouted, "I'll take the lead. You guys follow me."
After saying that, Zhou Qingfeng did not call out to the others and rushed out alone. The giant wolf he was riding on quickly entered the Frozen Cave. It was much more adaptable and agile than an ordinary horse on the rugged and uneven ground. As soon as he left, Young Master Ye no longer hesitated. He took his wife and younger brother and followed closely behind. Fan Wan'er and the other two naturally did not stay behind. They even led many people on the island to leave with them.
According to the information revealed during the quarrel between Jia Gang and the others, Ice Phoenix had entered the Onigami Mound for a certain treasure on the third floor. However, there were a lot of people chasing after her, forcing her to retreat step by step. She was forced to open more than a dozen areas on the first floor of Onigumo Mound. She occupied the favorable environment of the Icebound Plain and wanted to turn all the ghosts and cultivators on the first layer of the caves into her subordinates.
The biting cold wind blew everywhere. It wouldn't take long for all the cultivators to be frozen into ice ghosts controlled by Ice Phoenix. However, all the exits of the caves were blocked by Ice Phoenix. The trapped cultivators could only try to break through the Ghost King of the Gates of Hell and enter the second layer to hide.
Even a rabbit would bite when it was cornered.
Zhou Qingfeng could probably guess the function of the elixir he had accidentally refined. It should be an enhanced Ghost Food Elixir, which could attract ghosts to fight for it. He could also guess what the Ye couple's idea was, but he was not familiar with the environment of the Onigami. He didn't even know where the Gates of the Hell and the Ghost King were. It was proper to ask Young Master Ye to lead the way.
At the moment, Zhou Qingfeng rode the wolf in front and followed Jia Gang's group. The three people of the Ye Family soon followed. However, they soon encountered trouble on the way. A large number of ice ghosts with thick ice armor appeared in the frozen cave and blocked the way.
"Don't fight these ice ghosts. Their ice armor is so thick that you can't cut them at all." Young Master Ye shouted behind Zhou Qingfeng to remind him. However, Zhou Qingfeng rode the gigantic wolf and charged diagonally. He charged straight at a humanoid demon that was covered in ice armor and icicles.
"Don't fight, you can't cut them." Young Master Ye was angry at the back. He was very happy to see Zhou Qingfeng so cleverly rushing to the front. But when he saw this guy was so rash to deal with the ice ghosts, he scolded, "Don't be stupid. I have been to the Onigami for more than a dozen times. The ice ghosts are the most difficult to deal with on the first layer. "
While he was speaking, Zhou Qingfeng's saber slashed on the neck of an ice ghost. The ice ghost was covered with thick frost, and ordinary spells couldn't break their defense. But Zhou Qingfeng's saber passed through it without any gap this time. At first glance, it seemed that he didn't hit anything, but after a closer look, he found that his saber penetrated the ice armor and directly attacked the ice ghost's vital point.
The saber of light could be real or virtual. In the hands of people who didn't know how to use it, it could only be virtual. Only in the hands of Zhou Qingfeng could it change between virtual and real. The physical state could be blocked, and the virtual state was like a condensed light. And light could penetrate transparent ice.
Through the transformation between virtual and real, the virtual saber of light ignored the thick ice armor and directly slashed the ice ghost's body. Zhou Qingfeng used the characteristics of light to penetrate the ice, condensed spiritual power, and cut the ice ghost's head in half.
Young Master Ye, who was at the back, was flustered and exasperated. He wanted to help, but before he could catch up, the Ice Ghost that was attacked by Zhou Qingfeng suddenly fell sideways, losing its deterrence with a clang.
"Huh?" Young Master Ye was stunned. He even stopped beside the fallen Ice Ghoul to see what was going on. His wife couldn't run fast on a mule. It took her a while to catch up and shouted, "Husband, don't worry about it, let's catch up."
Fan Wan'er and the others also ran quickly on horseback. Although they were surprised, they didn't stop. On the other hand, Zhou Qingfeng, who was in front, rushed back and forth as if he was running wild. He shouted and rushed past the ice ghosts blocking his way with his saber — the saber of light was so useful, which greatly boosted his confidence.
The cave passage was narrow, and there was no way to get through without defeating these annoying ice ghosts. In front of them, Jia Gang and the others were entangled by four or five ice ghosts. In order to blast away these ghosts with strong defense, they had taken turns to use talismans and artifacts. Just as they were fretting over their consumption, a fellow riding a wolf suddenly appeared from the side and waved his saber, severely injuring an Ice Ghoul with just two slashes.
The seriously injured ice ghost's armor was still intact, but its neck inside was crooked. This guy probably realized that he was going to die, so he rushed out crazily and slapped the ground with his icicle-covered arms. Immediately, more than ten sharp icicles protruded from the hard ground of the cave.
Jia Gang lacked the ability to attack the opponent head-on, so his spells such as poison, smoke, and evil intentions were completely ineffective against the ghosts. The only one who could block the attack was the extremely strong zombie beside him.
But there was only one zombie, and there were endless ice ghosts. The icicles protruded from the ground and immediately pushed the zombie made from Uța's body to stumble — fortunately, it was a zombie. If it were a normal cultivator, he would have died before his defense could keep up.
However, seeing an ice ghost fall, Jia Gang was not surprised but happy. He didn't see clearly who killed the ice ghost in front of him, but he shouted in delight, "That fellow cultivator's artifact is so sharp? Hurry up, hurry up, we will help from the side. If you don't have enough spiritual power, I will take care of all the spiritual replenishing pills. "
The giant wolf ran from the edge of the cave at a 90-degree angle, and Zhou Qingfeng, who was riding on it, ran to the back of the ice ghost that blocked the way and slashed a few times. Hearing Jia Gang's shout, he not only did not approach, but also distanced himself and shouted, "Brother Jia, how have you been? I didn't expect your cultivation to improve again. Congratulations."
One ice ghost fell, and two more blocked in front of Jia Gang. If he was alone, he could naturally turn into black smoke and break through, but without the help of other cultivators, the Ghost King at the back of Hell's Gate would not be able to pass. Right now, he had to desperately lead as many companions as possible to break through this frozen cave. But every step forward was extremely difficult, and he would retreat step by step.
Hearing someone call him "Brother Jia", Jia Gang was a little surprised, because the voice was too familiar. He had never seen the fellow riding the wolf in front of him, but that shiny, thin, and long sword ….
There were several ice ghosts between Zhou Qingfeng and Jia Gang, and one of them turned around and attacked Zhou Qingfeng. This ice ghost armor was thick and strong, but it was not fast. Zhou Qingfeng took advantage of the other party's clumsiness, and rode the giant wolf in a circle, raised the saber high, and aimed at the other party's fragile neck — if it was an ordinary armor, Zhou Qingfeng would not be able to do it. But the characteristics of the ice armor's transparency gave the Saber of Light an opportunity.
Looking at the unique Saber of Light, Jia Gang suddenly exclaimed, "Kid, why is it you again? Wherever I go, I run into you, you unlucky bastard. "
Yes, he bumped into him in Hetuala. Jia Gang was unlucky; he bumped into Cullen, Jia Gang was unlucky; now he bumped into him in Onitsuka, Jia Gang … He felt that things were not good!
"Hahaha … Brother Jia, why are you in such a hurry?" Zhou Qingfeng looked at Jia Gang, maintaining a distance of more than 20 meters. He took out the pulley bow hanging on his waist, drew the bow, and shot an arrow with light attached to it — from a distance of 20 meters, the powerful arrow accurately hit the back of an ice ghost.
The ice armor blocked the arrow, and only a few ice shards burst out, but the light spiritual power in the arrow penetrated it.
In the face of light, the ice armor had no defense.
The light spiritual power had doubled the suppression damage to the ghost. After the arrow hit the ice ghost, it immediately froze, and the spiritual power in its body turned into a burst of light, and it exploded into pieces.
Jia Gang and the others fought for a long time, but they could not kill an ice ghost so easily. It was not that they were not strong enough, but the ice ghost's defense was too thick, and the ice ghost's body was actually fragile. Seeing that Zhou Qingfeng killed the ice ghost as if it was a game, they were surprised and even retreated, wanting to push all the battle pressure to Zhou Qingfeng.
"Kid, you are getting stronger. Quickly kill all the remaining ice ghosts, and let's fight the ghost king guarding the second floor of Onitsuka together. "Jia Gang knew that Zhou Qingfeng had a lot of tricks. The current situation was not good, so he must win over this strong reinforcement.
However, Zhou Qingfeng did not approach. He stood more than 20 meters away and shouted, "If Brother Jia wants to join forces with me again, please throw the bell you took away."
"What bell?"
"What bell are you talking about?"
"But I don't have a bell."
"The bell is hanging in the magic tool bag on your waist. If you don't hand it over, continue to fight with these ice ghosts. "
"Kid, don't be too arrogant. I'm not afraid of you now. It's different now."
Jia Gang shouted loudly with a hoarse voice like a whetstone.
With a swoosh, the light arrow shot over again, aiming at Jia Gang's heart. Jia Gang narrowly avoided it, and the light arrow hit the head of an ice ghost behind him. The ice ghost's head exploded directly, and the ice fragments hit Jia Gang, scaring him.
After being angry, Jia Gang turned into black smoke and chased after Zhou Qingfeng for more than 10 meters. He lowered his voice and scolded, "Kid, don't force me. Even if Guo Buyi comes, don't think about getting the bell back. "
"Really? Then I'll go find Ice Phoenix. For the sake of saving her, she won't make things difficult for me. "Zhou Qingfeng turned around on the giant wolf and rushed to the other end of the cave without hesitation.
Jia Gang turned into black smoke and tried to shorten the distance between him and Zhou Qingfeng. Zhou Qingfeng kept moving away, making sure that there was still a distance of 20 meters between them.
"Brat, don't play tricks on me. This Onigami has become difficult to traverse, and danger lurks everywhere. If you come back obediently, I can still help you out on account of our past friendship. As for Guo Jiao's protective bell, it's my life-saving magic tool now. Don't even dream about it. As for that Phoenix, don't count on it. Her heart is cold, and there is no love to speak of. "
