Hiding in the shadows, Lan Xiaodie, Xie Zhichuan, Fu Anxing, and Dugu Yan wore gloomy expressions, their eyes filled with resentnt and frustration.
The multiple bloody traps they had ticulously designed, thought to be enough to annihilate Shi Feiyang and his group, had all proved useless.
Watching Shi Feiyang and the heroes step into the reed marsh, they could only grit their teeth in secret, waiting for the opportunity.
The flas of revenge burned in their hearts, yet they also understood that the outco of this bloody battle was far more complex than they had imagined.
Just as Shi Feiyang and the heroes stepped into the marsh, they keenly sensed an intense aura of danger rushing towards them.
This aura was piercing and alarming, causing waves of chills to run through them.
The lake water was turbid, resembling a pond of death; indistinct black shadows swam below, akin to demons lurking in the darkness.
These shadows might be creatures in the lake or hidden dangers, leaving people unable to discern, only to heighten their vigilance.
A nauseating stench pervaded the air, mixed with the decay of the lake water, causing involuntary frowns.
Shi Feiyang and the heroes realized that beneath the lake's surface surely lay hidden, unknown secrets.
Suddenly, a dull and deafening roar ca from the lake's bottom, like thunder rolling underwater.
This sound, like a startling thunder, shattered the calm of the lake surface and the calm within people's hearts.
Dugu Cang, the fourth son of Dugu Yan, stood high up, the fierce wind rustling his clothes like a flag; yet he seed like a Demon God, driving a herd of armored crocodiles with wild laughter. His laughter, like the icy wind of winter, was piercing and terrifying, sending shivers down the spine.
In an instant, dozens of massive armored crocodiles burst from the icy lake water, their scales as hard as iron, shimring with a frosty glint in the cold wind.
They opened their gaping maws, revealing razor-sharp fangs adorned with glistening shards of ice, lunging towards the crowd, churning up a large spray of icy water, which imdiately froze into ice beads in the cold wind, scattering everywhere.
Simultaneously, the Sword Puppet Water Ghosts from the lake's depths mobilized in unison.
These water ghosts, clad in black tight-fitting suits, erged faintly visible from the icy lake water, like phantoms.
Ard with sharp blades, gleaming with a cold light in the murky water, they moved effortlessly, launching deadly attacks while the group was unprepared. Shi Feiyang maintained a stern expression, eyes resolute, unhesitatingly employing the "Thousand Mile No Trace" Lightweight Technique.
His form, like a streak of black lightning, darted agilely between the crocodiles and water ghosts, accompanied by a gust of cold wind.
Each step he took precisely avoided the enemy's attacks.
His clothes flapped in the cold wind, yet it didn't affect his speed and agility in the slightest.
"Water Dragon" Jin Liufu, upon seeing this, flashed a resolute look in his eyes and unhesitatingly employed the "Water Dividing Needle" technique, leaping into the water.
The bone-chilling water engulfed him instantly, yet he seed utterly unaware of the cold. The Water Dividing Needle in his hand shimred coldly, dancing in the water, each thrust carrying a powerful surge of water impact, instantly lacerating several armored crocodiles.
Blood spread swiftly in the icy water, dyeing the surrounding lake dark red in an instant, provoking the other crocodiles to attack even more fiercely.
However, Shuiliang Gang Leader Hu Yonghuai, Vice Gang Leader Hu Jinghuai, Vice Gang Leader Hu Shanhuai, Vice Gang Leader Hu Youhuai, and Vice Gang Leader Hu Jiehuai were like five venomous snakes hidden in the dark, stealthily swimming towards Jin Liufu amidst the water.
Each gripped a sharp weapon in their hand, eyes filled with ferocity and greed.
Hu Yonghuai made the first move, slashing fiercely at Jin Liufu with a long blade, the blade's glint flashing in the water, stirring up a cold current.
Jin Liufu reacted swiftly, sidestepping, and thrust the Water Dividing Needle towards Hu Yonghuai.
Hu Yonghuai hastily blocked with his blade, and the clash of weapons emitted a muffled sound, reverberating in the water.
Shi Feiyang's gaze was like lightning, instantly capturing Jin Liufu ensnared in peril, surrounded by several Shuiliang Gang experts like ravenous wolves, the situation extrely perilous. A cold gleam flickered in his eyes, like lightning striking through a winter night, carrying a bone-chilling cold.
The Celestial Frost Blade gripped tightly in his hand emitted a ghostly cold glow under the dim light, resembling an ice dragon about to devour.
In an instant, Shi Feiyang unleashed the Bright Jade Technique, his aura surging instantly, fully initiating the Eighth Realm—"Supre Forgetfulness."
A surging inner strength gushed out, forming a powerful cold force field centered on him, freezing the surrounding water as if struck by a millennium of extre cold.
In an exceedingly brief ti, the flowing liquid of the lake beca hard ice, beneath the lake surface, ice spikes grew and spread rapidly, turning the entire water area into a prison of ice.
The ice layer shimred with a ghostly blue light, appearing extraordinarily eerie in the murky lake water, each ice spike was razor-sharp, easily piercing any approaching object. Shi Feiyang leaped like a black teor falling into the water.
The Celestial Frost Blade, in the biting cold lake water, grew even stronger in its chill, instantly forming a thick layer of ice around the blade, which was crystal clear yet emitted a deadly coldness. He wielded the Celestial Frost Blade, each swing carrying the montum of mountains and seas and potent ice power.
Where the blade's light passed, the lake water imdiately froze, and the originally agile mbers of the Shuiliang Gang, swimming in the water, were trapped by the sudden ice prison, their movents becoming slow and arduous. Inside the ice prison, the Shuiliang Gang mbers' figures were distorted and deford, they pounded the ice layer in terror, the bubbles of air they exhaled rising swiftly in the cold water, only to freeze instantly on the ice layer's surface.
