The sudden red light did not catch anyone's attention at first, but as it grew stronger and more intense, everyone inside and outside the ice quickly noticed it.
Yes, it was boiling!
The bursts of red light boiled like steam from a pot of boiling water. They twisted in the air and refracted into strange spectral bands. Some of the red light even whistled out of the larger cracks in the ice layer and shot straight into the sky.
"It's those mechanical puppets!"
Everyone suddenly realised that Li Chengfeng's goal was not to directly attack the Demon King, but to destroy the solid ice beneath their feet!
After being melted by hot water, washed by lightning, penetrated by the insects, and then bombarded by Li Chengfeng, the ice beneath the Dijon expeditionary army began to crumble completely.
There were broken pieces of ice everywhere, and collapsed layers of ice were everywhere. If it was just a collapse, it would not have been a devastating blow to the Dijon army. The real decisive blow to them was the forgotten puppet giants buried deep under the glacier!
"Oooooooo!"
Suddenly, a dull whistle came from under the ice. The sound was distant and gloomy, but in the ears of the soldiers of the Puppet Kingdom and the generals of the Dijon Kingdom, it sounded like the whisper of the God of Death.
"Oooooooo!"
Another whistle rang. This time, it grew louder and louder, as if more and more giant puppets were responding and roaring.
If anyone could see through the broken, folded, and collapsed layers of ice, they would see that the giant puppets' eyes were glowing red once again. Their bodies were emitting terrifying heat, and the humming sound from the motor section was hair-raising. The huge kinetic energy was madly driving the fans in the heat sinks, and after the fan spun madly, it produced a deafening whistle through the layers of fan blades and exhaust pipes.
The magic crystals in the motor section were getting redder and hotter. They had once again entered an overload state, and were rapidly entering an unstable state. The fixed magic crystals began to shake violently and even jump.
When the red light was so intense that it was almost solid, and even swallowed the giant puppets, the terrifying overload finally erupted!
"Hum!"
The first wave of energy shattered the layer of ice, and the red pillar of light soared into the sky. All living beings within ten meters of it instantly evaporated, disappearing without a trace. Even the people within fifty meters of it were instantly scalded, and the terrifying heat and steam almost scalded them into a pile of rolling meat paste. It was a pity that they did not die yet. Some of them were scalded blind on the spot, and some were almost cooked on the spot, but surprisingly, they did not die immediately. They rolled on the ground, and the flesh on their bodies fell off piece by piece.
This horrifying scene frightened everyone. The Dijon battle formation collapsed instantly, and they turned to look in the direction of the portal. However, the portal was already on the verge of being destroyed. Due to Li Chengfeng's heavy attack, the portal was now slanted, and because the Demon King had already broken away from the portal, the portal could no longer operate. The halos between the two portals flickered, and it did not look like they could still be used.
But even so, there were still countless Dijon soldiers rushing towards the portal. They rushed forward like a raging tide. Those who were slower were immediately pushed down and then trampled into meat paste. Those who were thin and weak were knocked down by the strong ones and then trampled into meat paste again. Those tall and strong Blood Warriors and various monsters were like tanks, crushing all who stood in their way, all for the sake of rushing to the portal, all for the sake of escaping.
The moment Li Chengfeng shattered the glacier, he slapped all the remaining flying talismans on himself and leaped into the air. At the same time, he borrowed the force of the flowers and vines to escape from this place that was about to become hell on earth.
In the blink of an eye, Li Chengfeng was already in mid-air when he suddenly felt a terrifying heat behind him. All the moisture in the air evaporated in an instant. His hair and even the fur on his body started to spontaneously combust. His skin cracked inch by inch, his dry skin split open, revealing his blood-red flesh which was immediately burnt to a greyish white.
Li Chengfeng instinctively turned around in fear, only to see a sea of red!
The entire world seemed to have turned red. Blood-red pillars of light shot into the sky, and waves of terrifying energy swept across the area!
Some of the energy light pillars exploded close to each other. After the two sides collided with each other, it immediately caused another explosion. The two huge light pillars quickly fused and expanded, forming a terrifying mushroom cloud. The terrifying energy that could destroy everything was like a tsunami that wreaked havoc in the air.
Li Chengfeng watched as the energy rushed towards him. With his current strength and speed, there was no way he could block it, and there was no way he could escape!
At that moment, Li Chengfeng suddenly became very calm. Facing this apocalyptic scene, he gave up struggling.
But at that moment, a black shadow appeared in front of him like a bolt of lightning. It was the Child Sword of Xiaobao's Zimu Lightning Sword. The body of the sword, which was as small as a fish, flashed in front of him. Then, Xiaobao appeared like a shadow.
"Young Master, let's go!"
Xiaobao grabbed Li Chengfeng with one hand, and the moment he did, he grabbed the child sword with the other. In a flash, he disappeared with Li Chengfeng.
Just as they disappeared, another red pillar of light shot up from the glacier beneath their feet. If they had stayed any longer, they would have evaporated in an instant.
When Li Chengfeng and Xiaobao reappeared, they were inside a magical formation.
At this moment, the cultivators inside the two formations were madly squeezing out the last of their magical energy, desperately activating the defensive barrier to resist the terrifying energy impact.
The beams of red energy shot up into the sky. Some of them 'combined' with each other, triggering an explosion similar to a nuclear explosion. Such a nuclear explosion caused their respective energies to rapidly spread in all directions, not just shooting upwards. This spread detonated the other light pillars, causing these light pillars to turn into mushroom clouds.
At this moment, even the unprecedentedly powerful Demon King Zhou Ling's body was rapidly being cleansed by this terrifying pure energy. Piece by piece, her flesh was washed away, leaving only white bones behind.
However, this terrifying energy devoured the lives of the Dijon people and created souls at a crazy rate. These souls were quickly absorbed into Zhou Ling's body, allowing her body to rapidly recover.
Even so, Zhou Ling's recovery could not withstand such a terrifying energy baptism. Her body was repeatedly cleansed, then reborn, and then immediately cleansed.
When the pillars of light turned into mushroom clouds, Zhou Ling finally broke down. Her skeleton began to shatter, and her limbs were crushed into ashes. She turned into dust along with the mountainous portal, and was swept away in all directions by the raging tide of energy.
If there were no cultivators here, just Long Tenghai and the rest would have been annihilated. But even with so many elite cultivators attacking together, the green barrier expanded like never before. But when Li Chengfeng saw the raging red energy wave crashing towards them like a raging wave, he did not feel safe at all!
They were like a small boat in a raging wave. When the wave crashed down, they would be swallowed whole.
