The restless summer seemed to have suddenly plunged into the cold of winter, an eerie chill rising all around. Lin Yi, with his keen Psychic Power, quickly realized that this strange coldness emanated from the white-haired woman before him, Renee Mayes. He had heard from Nicolas that vampires each possessed their own unique abilities, and it was likely that this woman's power was related to lowering temperatures.
"You despicable human!" Renesmee scoffed coldly, her eyes blazing with fury, and the temperature around them dropped further as her expression grew more frigid.
Lin Yi was taken aback, unsure of what Renesmee meant by her words as she immediately resorted to insults. At that moment, Nicolas stepped closer to Lin Yi and said, "The term 'vampire' is considered an insult by our Holy Clan; she has committed a grave offense by speaking like that!"
Although Nicolas's voice was low, Beatrice heard him clearly. She knew of vampires' existence but felt confident in her own strength and thus did not regard them with much concern.
"Renesmee, I apologize; my friend is still unfamiliar with your customs." Regardless of whether it was for Nicolas's sake or their current need for assistance, Lin Yi felt compelled to lower his head.
Just moments ago, Aoling Er had informed Lin Yi that they were about to face a calamity, and Renesmee was one of the key figures in resolving it. Although Lin Yi was no hero, he was not one to easily bow down. Yet for the survival of thousands, what did it matter to humble himself?
"Nicolas, why did you bring a human here?" Renesmee ignored Lin Yi and reprimanded Nicolas directly. Her twin brothers behind her wore expressions of schadenfreude, while Tina looked at Lin Yi and Nicolas with barely contained amusement.
"Ice Sister, you've lived among humans for quite some time; this return must be for refuge. They are my friends—what's wrong with helping them?" Nicolas spoke with righteous indignation, his previously timid demeanor completely vanished.
Renesmee furrowed her brows in displeasure but maintained her icy demeanor as she replied, "Regardless of the circumstances, I will not allow humans in my domain!"
Beatrice stepped forward suddenly and said, "If we wish to pass through, can you really stop us?" Beatrice recognized that the isolated peak was indeed the best place to evade this disaster; otherwise, they would have no choice but to confront the zombies head-on—a situation he wished to avoid at all costs.
"Hmph!" Renesmee's expression turned cold as her thin garments fluttered without wind. Lin Yi felt a bone-chilling coldness assault him; if he hesitated even a moment longer, he might be frozen solid.
As the chilling aura approached him, Lin Yi had been observing Renesmee closely and found himself retreating dozens of steps in quick succession.
Beatrice was not so fortunate; she felt as if a layer of frost had enveloped her entire body, her face turning an instant shade of dark blue and purple. The breath from her nostrils transformed into a misty white cloud.
In an instant, it felt as though two worlds had emerged: where Lin Yi stood remained sweltering summer heat while Renesmee's vicinity had already transformed into a biting winter chill.
"To think you could evade my Frozen Domain; no wonder you can command Nicolas's obedience!" Renesmee glanced at Lin Yi with surprise but paid him no further mind.
Suddenly, a flash of cold light cut through the night as a short blade shot toward Renesmee's forehead. Lin Yi shouted in alarm and prepared to intercept the blade when Renesmee waved her hand lightly. A wave of cold air materialized out of nowhere. In the next moment, an astonishing scene unfolded—the rapidly flying knife froze mid-air.
Lin Yi took a closer look and noticed that the blade was covered in dense frost; it had been completely immobilized just ten centimeters away from Renesmee.
With a sharp sound, the knife fell straight to the ground like fragile porcelain shattering into several pieces.
The assailant was none other than a Five-Star expert from the Golden Mercenary Corps. His face was filled with shock; he never expected his bizarre attack would be so effortlessly neutralized by his opponent.
Renesmee was suddenly enraged by the actions of the Five-Star Master. In an instant, she let out a furious cry, and the ground around her erupted with patches of white ice that spread rapidly.
Within just a few breaths, a layer of frost covered the ground, and those caught within its reach turned into frost-covered figures, each shivering uncontrollably.
Lin Yi, in a moment of crisis, activated his Psychic Power to isolate the chilling aura, shielding himself from its effects. However, it seemed that this icy energy seeped into Lin Yi's mind, plunging his consciousness into an endless cold realm.
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Renesmee's mouth, which Lin Yi interpreted as nothing less than a blatant mockery. Nicolas, witnessing the escalating situation, hurriedly tried to explain something to Renesmee. Yet Lin Yi realized they were speaking an ancient language he had never encountered before; he couldn't understand a word and found it somewhat grating to hear.
"Well, I doubt they would dare to act recklessly!" Renesmee declared, waving her hands as the frost melted away at an astonishing speed.
In just over ten seconds, those who had just been "thawed" were now huddled together in cold confusion, their eyes filled with bewilderment. Beatrice, as a senior commander of the Golden Mercenary Corps, was also severely affected by the cold, her lips turning a dark shade of blue.
"Mr. Lin, if you want our help, you must first prove that you truly possess the strength!" Renesmee said as she gracefully stepped closer to Lin Yi, now less than three meters away.
"Please show mercy, Sister Renesmee." Lin Yi understood her implication; only the strong could earn respect from others.
Silence fell as a sudden gust of cold wind enveloped Lin Yi. A piercing chill surrounded him while swirling ice crystals danced like snowflakes in a frenzy around him.
Lin Yi hadn't expected Renesmee to strike so fiercely. He could clearly sense how fast these swirling ice crystals moved; if they struck a person, they would undoubtedly create a bloody hole. Not daring to be careless for even a moment, Lin Yi quickly unleashed his Psychic Power and summoned two Silver Souls to defend himself.
Suddenly, amidst this icy curtain formed by the crystals, a triangular white object shot forth. Lin Yi's eyes widened in shock—it was a sharp ice spike!
At that moment, the ice spike was less than a meter away from him and closing in rapidly; there was no time left to maneuver his Silver Souls for defense!
In an instant, Lin Yi concentrated his Psychic Power in front of the ice spike and formed an invisible barrier that halted its advance.
However, before he could catch his breath, another ice spike plunged down directly from above him. Lin Yi cursed inwardly; this woman truly showed no mercy!
With a forceful push off his toes, Lin Yi propelled himself toward the icy screen. His impact could have shattered an ordinary wall, yet the ice barrier merely trembled before stabilizing once more.
The ice spike above him fell to the ground and vanished while the one he had blocked with his Psychic Power broke through his barrier and shot toward him.
At that moment, Lin Yi had already grasped one of his Silver Souls in hand. Even though the ice spike moved at incredible speed, it couldn't surpass him. With a swift motion of one hand, he swung the Silver Soul in a flourish, slicing the incoming ice spike into countless shards.
A heavy grunt echoed from beyond the icy curtain. In the next instant, the swirling ice crystals moved even faster as if countless hungry ghosts were shrieking in unison—a sound so grating it felt like nails scraping against glass.
Lin Yi suppressed his discomfort as his Psychic Power enveloped him completely. Just then, dozens of ice spikes shot toward him from various directions!
"Drink!" Lin Yi shouted, his face instantly turning red. In the next moment, two Silver Souls danced around him, forming an elliptical curtain of blades. As soon as the ice spikes touched the blade curtain, they melted away like winter snow, instantly turning into a pile of crushed ice shards.
In an instant, the sound of cracking echoed everywhere as dozens of ice spikes transformed into a thick layer of shattered ice that fell around Lin Yi in less than a minute. Clearly, such a strong attack was no match for Lin Yi, whose strength was already on the verge of reaching the peak of Seven-Star Level.
"Frozen Domain, seal!" Just when Lin Yi thought he was about to break through Renesmee's icy barrier, a delicate voice suddenly rang out from outside.
Suddenly, Lin Yi felt the air around him tighten. The ice barrier, which had been nearly two meters away from him, rapidly shrank. The crushed ice shards he had just scattered began to float and adhere to the surface of the barrier.
In just a breath's time, the surrounding ice barrier had shrunk to an extreme. Lin Yi felt that if he didn't act soon, he would truly be frozen within this cold icy prison.
"Rise!" Lin Yi released his grip on the Silver Souls, allowing them to float in mid-air. Then, with a fierce expression flashing across his face, the two Silver Souls began to spin rapidly, transforming into a cylindrical drilling machine-like object.
Bang! Bang! Bang! A series of striking sounds erupted as the ice barrier seemed to be relentlessly hammered by heavy blows, causing the ice shards above to tumble down. As the barrier needed to withstand the attacks from the Silver Souls, it ceased its shrinking.
In just over ten seconds, the ice crystals on the barrier were drilled out by the Silver Souls, creating a fifty-centimeter circular hole. In the next moment, Lin Yi's figure swayed and he directly emerged from the hole.
However, before Lin Yi could feel any joy, his expression turned extremely grim.
