Chapter 257: Defeated (1/2)
”Ice Fortress!”
Swish!
Around Lan Xue, a huge fortress made of ice was suddenly generated. The ice that constituted its walls, seemed just like a thousand years old iceberg that would never break and never relent. That ice was tougher than iron and could stop anything from approaching her.
The huge crystal red mountain mercilessly collided against the fortress of ice, creating a huge and powerful Mana shockwave that could kill anyone below the Mana Control late-stage Realm instantly.
Boom!
Crack!
The sharp peak of that crystal mountain penetrated Lan Xue's ice fortress, destroying its surface and making its way towards her. However, there were many and many layers of ice walls it still needed to penetrate until it reached her current position.
The peak kept moving forward, breaking the ice layers of protection, until it completely stopped. Lan Xue had spent too much Mana on that skill, but at least, it was able to protect her from that attack.
But suddenly, the whole body of that golem made of red crystals started to shine again, and from right where the peak had penetrated, Lan Xue's ice started to turn red.
The red color started to dye the ice fortress, quickly making everything change, ruining her skill capabilities. Lan Xue tried to use her Mana to stop what was happening, but it was to no avail. It was like her ice fortress was not hers anymore. It was now, in control of that crimson-colored energy.
Lan Xue swiftly decided to destroy the ice fortress defending her back side and move away from there. In just a few seconds, her entire skill had changed, the ice was dyed red and it started to turn into red crystals.
Crack!
The whole fortress shattered and the crimson shards started to gather in a certain area in the air. In a matter of seconds, it formed a huge horizontal spiky Shard, that resembled a threatening red lance. It was pulsing with energy and pointed towards Lan Xue, like it was crazy to pierce her and feed on her blood.
After it finished forming, it was remotely shot towards her direction, moving at an inconceivable speed.
Lan Xue realized the penetration power of that skill was nothing like the others before. Her barriers would be inevitably useless against something like that, so her only option was to freeze it thoroughly.
”Ice World!” That loli figure used one of her most powerful abilities. Both her arms opened up and a freezing fog covered the whole area. At that instant, the ground, the Mana and even the air started to completely freeze.
The red crystal lance instantly froze at the place it was. A layer of ice covered its whole surface, making it unable to reach her body. The lance slowly cracked, shattering and falling down in pieces.
Finally, the crystal golem realized ranged skills were not able to reach her at all. It had a really low intelligence and it also lacked a lot on other aspects, such as how to better use the Mana or to properly utilize the corruption, but what it didn't lack was speed and power.
After realizing his projectiles were useless, it decided to personally act.
ROAR!
Boom!
It suddenly leaped towards Lan Xue, moving so fast that when she noticed, it was already arching high up in the skies and descending towards her in a high velocity.
