Rush, rush, punch. Xia Fan knew that the longer the delay, the more dangerous it became, not only because there were more and more ice balls thrown from above, more and more dense, and they were getting bigger and bigger, but more importantly, because of the continuous touching of these ice balls, the entire iceberg array also became more and more violent, and the ice blue light swept across the entire iceberg wave after wave, and began to spread farther away, which was a precursor to the entire iceberg array to be triggered.

Just the power of the formation on this tallest iceberg when it was triggered had already made Xia Fan almost a little overwhelmed, and it was conceivable that after the formations on the other icebergs were also activated, what kind of dangerous situation he would face when the entire iceberg array completely began to operate.

If he can't reach the top of the mountain before the formation is completely activated, and find a way to seize control of the entire formation, then what awaits him and Ge Changhe will definitely be the worst outcome, and when the time comes, it may not be that they have to think about whether they can escape alive, but what kind of death is more comfortable.

"Ah!" After dodging several times in a row, Xia Fan had already rushed through the last section of the road, and at this time, he didn't have any previous concerns, with a wave of his hand, he had already sacrificed a Ten Thousand Soul Flag, and with a sweep of his hand, the banner shadow rolled up like the Nine Heavens Galaxy upside down, and with a bang, thirty or forty huge ice balls that were smashed in front of him were instantly exploded.

The ice chips flew, and in an instant, they spread seven or eight hundred zhang, and at the same time, they also pounced on Xia Fan's face, and the cold feeling shocked his spirit, and at the same time, his original murderous heart also became much calmer. Because although he fought very happily just now, he immediately felt the counterattack of the iceberg array, if he hadn't resolved it in time, maybe he would have suffered a big loss again. Even so, he couldn't help but vomit blood again.

It seems that spells cannot be used in the next battle, otherwise it will easily attract the attack of the formation. Xia Fan thought to himself.

"Bang ......" Xia Fan's feet landed on the top of the mountain, and he saw the culprits who threw the ice hockey at a glance, and then couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Originally, Xia Fan thought that it might be other god realm powerhouses who came to the top of the mountain first, but now he found that it was not a group of people standing on the top of the mountain at all, but a group of monkeys. To be more precise, they are not living creatures at all, at least not flesh and blood, but a group of spirits condensed from the solid ice that has not melted for thousands of years.

They are not the same as those souls in the Ten Thousand Soul Banners. For example, the Flame White Ape King, although there is no physical body, only the divine soul remains, but in front of it is a flesh-and-blood demon beast, just because the physical body was destroyed later, the divine soul did not dissipate, and finally re-condensed and formed, and it became the current soul body, which can also be regarded as embarking on a path of cultivation, but from the original soul body cultivation to only cultivating the divine soul.

But this spirit is another kind of situation, they are a certain thing that is formed after the occasional mutation after the high condensation of the aura of heaven and earth, there is no ** in itself, but it is not a divine soul, it can only be regarded as a spirit, it is said that heaven and earth have long been, but the limitations are far greater than that of the divine soul, because there is no physical body, and they have no spiritual wisdom at the beginning of their birth, so they are ignorant, and they can often only wander around under the drive of instinct.

And such a state is undoubtedly quite dangerous for them, because the spirits themselves are quite fragile, sometimes a gust of wind blows, a thunderbolt strikes, they may completely dissipate, and because they are quite weak when they are just born, they cannot float far away, they can only wander around the birthplace, like lonely ghosts. The vast majority of spirits will gradually dissipate in such a state.

However, there are some exceptions, as long as it does not dissipate quickly, or after being lucky enough to survive the first few tribulations, the spirit will turn on the spirit, and then it will naturally attach itself to something, so even if it has a body, it will become a spirit at this time.

Just like these ice monkeys that appeared in front of Xia Fan at this time, they were actually spirits. The reason why they look like monkeys is presumably because they were influenced by the outside world when they were attached to the ice, so they became like this.

You must know that the spirit itself has no shape and no specific appearance, if you have to say what it looks like, it is estimated that it is like a cloud and mist, until it attaches to something between heaven and earth and turns into a spirit body, it will have a chance to shape, and what it becomes at this time will basically be what it will look like in the future.

Seeing this large group of forty or fifty ice monkeys, Xia Fan couldn't help but be surprised, because even if he was considered to be extraordinary, he had rarely heard of forty or fifty spirits gathering together. When he was shocked by the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but have some kind of guess, that is, these spirits definitely did not appear by chance, but it was very likely that the original master of this small world, the Great Wilderness Ancestor, found them out of nowhere, and then put them here, and deliberately guided them to become such spirits.

The ice monkeys then became the guardians of the iceberg. Because of their particularity, they will not be affected by the iceberg array, and they are spirits, they don't need to eat or drink at all, as long as they have aura, they can live forever, so they have been sticking here, attacking anyone who intends to go up the mountain.

Xia Fan didn't know if anyone had been here before he arrived, but presumably if someone did, they would definitely return under the attack of these ice monkeys, or even die without a place to be buried. Of course, it is definitely not these ice monkeys that are really powerful, because no matter how powerful they are, their overall strength is only equivalent to the peak of the Transformation God Realm, in fact, if they want to hold here, they don't need to have any strong combat power, as long as they can trigger the Iceberg Array.

But now that I'm here, I can't help you to be here to show off your might. Xia Fan thought about it, stretched out his hand behind him and said, "Old Ge, borrow your shield for use." ”

Ge Changhe did not hesitate at all, and directly handed the shield to Xia Fan.

The original quality of this shield was extraordinary, but because Ge Changhe used it to resist the weight of the iceberg array just now, it was seriously damaged, and the aura on the shield had become very dim, if it could not be repaired properly, it was likely to collapse completely.

If it was a fighting method between ordinary cultivators, it would basically be of little use to use such a shield, and it might be completely shattered after just one attack. But now it's just right. Because the aura on it has dimmed, there will be no aura fluctuations when you use it, and you don't have to worry about triggering the iceberg array when fighting.

At this time, although Xia Fan stood on the top of the mountain, he looked much safer than before, but in fact, it was not, because this flat mountain top was the core of the entire iceberg array, so it was even more dangerous, and if he was not careful, he might be crushed to death by the entire array again.

"Roar!" When the ice monkeys saw Xia Fan and Ge Changhe ascend to the top of the mountain, they immediately became extremely violent, and rushed towards Xia Fan together with a roar.

These ice monkeys not only look like monkeys carved out of ice, but also behave similarly, but when attacking, they are faster and more ruthless, almost as soon as the roar starts, they have all turned into ice blue light and appeared around Xia Fan's body, it is really like wind and electricity, and at the same time, when the paws stick out, it is even more cold wind howling, and in an instant, the entire iceberg top is like a blizzard without warning, the wind is like thunder, and the broken ice is like a tide, coming towards Xia Fan and Ge Changhe from all directions.

The cold wind and broken ice are not the most fatal, the real killer is the claws of those ice monkeys, which are not only sharp, but also contain powerful cold poison, as long as they are caught, they will definitely be cold poison into the body, and they will be frozen into ice in an instant.

"Hold on. Xia Fan said to Ge Changhe, and at the same time rushed forward, and the giant shield in his hand smashed out.

Shields can be used not only to block enemy attacks on the battlefield, but also to be used as offensive weapons. It just so happened that Xia Fan knew how to use it. At this time, he waved the giant shield away, not only blocking all the attacks of the ice monkey in front of him, but also striking back the scratched claws every time he changed his body.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Although Xia Fan didn't dare to cast spells, let alone use the shield in his hand as a magic weapon, he just relied on its sturdiness and heaviness to simply fight in close combat, but in such a fierce battle, how could he not use any mana at all? Therefore, every time he hit the claws of the ice monkey, it would definitely explode with a bang, and the strong wind would roll and the attacking ice monkey would directly shake away, and at the same time, it would also push Xia Fan back as well.

It seems that Xia Fan has the upper hand everywhere when he fights, being chased and beaten by a group of ice monkeys, and occasionally counterattacking is also shocked back again, in fact, Xia Fan did not suffer from the beginning to the end, but when he retreated again and again, he burst the claws of several manic ice monkeys who attacked him.

Xia Fan's retreat was actually deliberate, if someone was watching the battle, they would find that he seemed to be constantly retreating, but he was approaching the center of the iceberg step by step. And that is the most important place for the entire iceberg array. As long as you take it, you can be regarded as completely controlling the entire iceberg array, and then the life and death of these ice monkeys will not be just a thought.

"Roar, roar, roar......" Xia Fan is certainly shrewd, those ice monkeys are also not stupid, after a crazy attack, they quickly sensed Xia Fan's intentions, and then roared wildly, and the next moment the ice monkeys who were originally attacking Xia Fan head-on like a swarm suddenly changed their attack strategy, and many began to detour from both sides, wanting to surround Xia Fan and fight.

Xia Fan cursed in his heart, but he no longer entangled with the ice monkey, and suddenly broke away from the battle, accelerating towards an ice-blue light that rose into the sky in the center of the mountaintop.
