283 Hunting Prey with Traps (2/2)
Mu Ningxue controlled the Wind Element and quickly made her way to the blocked path.
The same vine spear that had attacked Song Xia suddenly thrust in from the side without any warning, aimed right at Mu Ningxue's heart. If it landed, it would kill her instantly.
The vine struck forward at an incredible speed, leaving no time for the magicians to react, let alone giving them enough time to cast an Intermediate Spell.
Mu Ningxue had already prepared herself for this. With a thought, pieces of pentagonal ice rapidly appeared around her. They immediately attached to her clothes as if they were magnetic. In under a second, the ice chips formed an elegant frozen armor around Mu Ningxue.
The armor was elegant yet sturdy, turning Mu Ningxue into a princess clad for battle. Her elegance carried a hint of new imperiousness.
The frosty armor wrapped around her tightly. The incoming vine snapped as if it had just collided with metal, and was immediately withdrawn like an injured tentacle.
”Protection!”
Mu Ningxue controlled the chains of the Ice Lock to revolve around the group. The icy chains immediately flew toward those who were being targeted by the vines to protect them,
”Water Barrier!”
”Sacred Shield!”
”Water Barrier!”
The others could not afford to just stand there and watch. They immediately cast their defensive spells to protect one other.
”The walls are still collapsing. If they finish contracting, we will end up like the hunters. We have to find a way to break through!” Zhao Manting said.
”Does anyone have a Deathstrike Item? I don't suppose you're still not willing to use them at a time like this!” Mu Ningxue asked.
Her Ice Lock was only suitable for use as protection under the circumstances. It was quite impossible to use it to break through the thick walls of interwoven vines.
”Mu Ningxue, try to freeze the plants. That way, my Light Slash will be more effective!” Ming Cong shouted.
”Got it!”
Qingqing and Luo Song, who also had the Ice Element, immediately cast their Ice Spreads together with Mu Ningxue.
Due to the buff from her domain, the trio's Ice Spread was stronger than usual. The frost spread through the place swiftly, managing to freeze a few layers of the walls within just a few seconds.
”Rupture Light Slash!” Ming Cong summoned a golden saber with a thought.
The saber was made of hard light. The others immediately cleared a path for it when they saw it.
Deathstrike Magic Equipment like this was expensive. It appeared that Ming Cong's renowned family was willing to spend some money on him, just to guarantee his safety.
All Magic Equipment required energy to activate. Their maximum power would only be unleashed with sufficient energy.
The Deathstrike Magic Equipment that Ming Cong was currently holding was worth at least ten million RMB. Its glow was extremely fiery, preventing the plants from getting any closer.
As he slashed forward with the saber of hard light, the others only saw a crescent sun flying forward in a straight line, chopping the vine walls apart. It even set the vines on fire...
Even though it was only a slash, it managed to clear a wide path. The vines seemed to be quite intimidated by it, the ones that were not damaged withdrawing from it hastily.
”Nice one!”
”Quick, we need to go now! The vines are closing in!”
