Adult Crimson Ridge Demons are Warrior-level demons, and each one can cause significant trouble for a team of Intermediate Mages.
But now, on the other side of the small island, there were hundreds of adult Crimson Ridge Demons standing before everyone!
Even more terrifying, without exception, they were all completely frozen by ice!
Thinking of the large amount of cold air Jiang Yuan had just released, Guan Yu and the others subconsciously swallowed.
Strong, truly too strong!
He could annihilate so many Crimson Ridge Demons with just a lift of his foot.
With their aptitude, dealing with a dozen Crimson Ridge Demons at once was already their limit!
After the shock, Ai Jiangtu skillfully set up the Monster Gathering Device.
Jiang Yuan nodded at the sight, and Ai Jiangtu immediately activated the Monster Gathering Device.
In an instant, an invisible vibration rapidly spread out from the Monster Gathering Device as its center.
Besides the demons, people like Jiang Yuan and Ai Jiangtu, who possessed Space abilities and high spiritual power realms, could also detect the subtle vibrations in the air.
The sea breeze blew, and everyone was silent.
Their gazes were fixed on every movement on the sea surface.
Just a few minutes later, the sea around the island began to churn with bubbles, and the sound of "pop, pop, pop" bursting grew louder.
Before long, the seawater surged upwards.
Crimson figures rapidly emerged from the sea, their three claws leaving long marks on the beach as they roared and charged up!
What followed was not only Crimson Ridge Demons but also the ubiquitous Sea Monkey Monsters, which, despite being only Servant-level in strength, were extremely numerous and also a great nuisance.
"Roar~~~~!!!!"
"Chirp~~~~!!!!"
The chill on the island's surface still lingered, and Jiang Yuan unhurriedly added to it, a large wave of visible icy white, bone-chilling air sweeping through.
The Crimson Ridge Demons and Sea Monkey Monsters had no time to react, their movements frozen in their ferocious roaring and running postures.
The Crimson Ridge Demons and Sea Monkey Monsters in front were frozen, while those behind continued to charge forward, one after another.
Time passed minute by minute.
Under everyone's stunned gaze, the sea monster ice sculptures on the beach had piled up like mountains.
"Why are these sea monsters so brainless? So many have died, yet they keep charging here," Mo Fan said, bored, as he plopped down onto a rock.
Generally speaking, Warrior-level Crimson Ridge Demons were quite intelligent and would not continue to charge when seeing their companions die in large numbers.
To this, Ai Jiangtu explained, "Sea monsters' hearing is much more sensitive than ordinary demons. They cannot tolerate the sound waves of the Monster Gathering Device. Even if they consciously resist, unless they move far away from this sea area, they will eventually go mad and try to destroy the Monster Gathering Device."
Mo Fan suddenly understood. Then he remembered something and asked, "Then if someone with ulterior motives were to place the Monster Gathering Device in a city, wouldn't it attract sea monsters to attack the city?"
"It's certainly possible," Ai Jiangtu nodded, then continued, "Such an incident occurred more than ten years ago, which is why the Monster Gathering Device is now strictly controlled by the military. Each use requires a complex application process."
"The Monster Gathering Device I brought out is a small one and will not cause a sea monster siege. Even so, very, very few people are able to use a small Monster Gathering Device. I am only temporarily authorized to use it because of the Academy Tournament."
During their conversation, another large batch of sea monsters died.
Roughly calculated, several thousand Crimson Ridge Demons had died, and no less than that number of Sea Monkey Monsters.
Even so, the number of sea monsters crawling out of the sea still showed no sign of decreasing.
Jiang Yuan now truly experienced how terrifying the number of sea monsters was.
Just a single Warrior-level Crimson Ridge Demon group was this numerous, and one should know that Crimson Ridge Demons are also one of the most numerous types among sea monsters.
The ocean is still too vast, and its resources are too abundant.
If the ocean could be developed, the resources it would bring would be unimaginable.
For example, right now, one by one, the essence spirits that others could not see were captured by a mysterious force into Jiang Yuan's Soul Space without even flying away from the bodies.
As of today, Jiang Yuan's Soul Space not only contains an endless expanse of undead.
Above the Soul Space, the essence spirits, like a vast ocean, form a brilliant starry sky!
"No, I also want to kill a few Crimson Ridge Demons. Old Jiang, give me a buff!" Mo Fan couldn't hold back; his hands were itching.
Jiang Yuan granted his wish and immediately gave Mo Fan a One Mind Starmap buff.
Feeling his mind exceptionally clear, Mo Fan's lips curved into a smile, and star maps instantly formed around him.
"Fierce Fist—Nine Dragons!!!!"
Mo Fan roared, slamming his fists onto the ground. The ground, covered by a thin layer of ice, cracked under the powerful flame energy.
Fiery red light gleamed from within the cracks!
Dozens of cracks extended all the way to the beach. At their limit, each crack's tip erupted in a violent explosion, and flame energy, like fire dragons, burst forth!
"Boom~~~~!!!!"
The intense fire scorched the area red. The powerful explosions and burning claimed the lives of many Crimson Ridge Demons and Sea Monkey Monsters.
However, the sea monsters he killed mostly produced remnant souls, with very few essence spirits.
"Awesome, this is so awesome!!" Mo Fan yelled out in exhilaration, and Thunder star maps began to appear on his body.
The violent scene of intertwined lightning and fire provided an intense visual experience.
The others, seeing Mo Fan having such a blast, also prepared to act.
With One Mind Starmap loaded, they too began to cast spells recklessly.
Those who weren't having enough fun even ran onto the beach to face the sea monsters directly.
As more and more sea monsters died, finally, a wild roar echoed among the Crimson Ridge Demons.
"Nah Wu~~~~!!!!!!"
At the same time, a crimson storm whipped up among the Crimson Ridge Demons. When touched by the storm, the frozen sea monsters were all shredded into ice shards, joining the storm and becoming sharp blades!
"The Commander of the Crimson Ridge Demons has arrived!" Ai Jiangtu stopped his casting and looked gravely at the source of the storm.
When a Crimson Ridge Demon reaches the Commander-level, it is no longer called a Crimson Ridge Demon but a Crimson Ridge Splitting Demon. Its body is even larger, and an ordinary person would tremble at just a glance!!!
"Finally out," Jiang Yuan smiled. With a thought, an ice crystal spear condensed in the void.
This ice crystal spear was completely different from those he had used before. Its overall appearance was a translucent white, without even a trace of ice crystal marks on it.
The moment the spear successfully condensed, all the surrounding water vapor condensed due to the extremely low temperature, turning into tiny ice crystals that floated down.
"Whoosh!!!"
The spear cut through the sky, its breaking-air sound almost piercing.
Extreme cold, extreme penetration!
Ai Jiangtu had just turned his head to warn Jiang Yuan when his peripheral vision caught a flash of light.
By the time his gaze followed, the Crimson Ridge Splitting Demon had already been pierced by the spear, its crimson body dimmed, covered by a layer of desolate blue.
The Crimson Ridge Splitting Demon was dead.
