My carefree life in space

Chapter 263 Unexpected Changes

Lin Shushu combined her own spiritual power with the power of the fragment of the Brahma Bowl, attempting to use a powerful spiritual impact to restrain the ice beast's movements. A dazzling light shot out from her hand, directly towards the ice beast.

The ice beast seemed to sense the threat of Lin Shushu's attack. It suddenly turned its head, opened its huge mouth, and shot out a shard of ice to meet Lin Shushu's spiritual energy.

With a deafening roar, the light collided with the ice shards, unleashing a powerful impact that echoed through the icy abyss. Ice shards, propelled by the impact, flew in all directions like projectiles.

Taking advantage of the ice beast's distraction, Mo Ze swiftly approached its right side, seized the opportunity, and thrust his sword towards the ice beast's leg joint. However, the ice beast's ice armor was incredibly hard; the sword struck it, only sending up a shower of sparks and leaving just a shallow mark.

The ice beast roared in pain and fury, its massive forepaws, like small mountains, crashing down on Mo Ze. Mo Ze couldn't dodge in time; his calf was crushed, and his body slammed heavily onto the ice.

"Mo Ze!" Lin Shushu was startled. In that moment of distraction, the power of her spiritual energy weakened slightly. The ice beast seized the opportunity and spat out another ice shard, aiming at Lin Shushu. Lin Shushu quickly dodged to the side. The ice shard grazed her shoulder, tearing her clothes and leaving a shallow wound on her shoulder.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xiao Jingping attacked from above the ice beast, his sword carrying a sharp aura, aimed directly at the beast's neck. Sensing the threat from above, the ice beast quickly raised its head, using its sharp horns to meet Xiao Jingping's sword.

With a clang, the sword collided with the sharp corner, and the powerful recoil made Xiao Jingping's arm go numb, and the sword almost slipped from his hand.

Taking advantage of the fact that the ice beast was distracted by the two of them, Mo Ze, who was being pressed under the giant hand, endured the pain and mobilized all his spiritual power to launch a fierce attack on the ice beast. The ice beast was in pain and released Mo Ze.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Shushu flew forward and took Mo Ze away from the ice beast's attack range.

The ice beast grew even angrier after its prey was stolen. It let out a huge roar that could shatter eardrums, and the sound echoed wildly in the ice abyss. The surrounding ice seemed unable to bear the weight and began to shake violently, with large and small ice blocks falling like raindrops.

By now, the icy abyss was a scene of utter devastation. The once smooth, mirror-like ice walls were now covered with sword marks of varying depths and craters from the impact of spiritual energy. Broken ice chunks piled up on the ground, forming undulating ice mounds.

The spiritual energy fluctuations generated by the battle intertwined with the icy chill, forming strange currents of energy that raged through the icy abyss.

Xiao Jingping once again used the ice wall as leverage to spring up, his longsword swirling with dense spiritual energy. He roared and thrust it towards the ice beast's eyes. The ice beast seemed to sense the danger, swiftly raising one of its front paws to block his attack.

The longsword struck the ice beast's claw, but failed to inflict any real damage. The ice beast then swung its claw out, and Xiao Jingping, unable to dodge in time, was slashed across the arm, blood gushing out instantly and quickly congealing in the cold air.

Mo Ze had just taken a healing pill, and his leg injury had recovered considerably. Taking advantage of the moment when the ice beast attacked Xiao Jingping, he circled around behind the ice beast, gathered all his spiritual power into the tip of his sword, and fiercely stabbed at the ice beast's hind leg.

As if sensing something, the ice beast suddenly turned around and spewed a breath of ice towards Mo Ze. Mo Ze hurriedly cast a spiritual energy shield to defend himself. The ice breath struck the shield, making a "sizzling" sound, and a thick layer of ice instantly formed on the surface of the shield.

Lin Shushu stood a short distance away, clutching the fragment of the Brahma Bowl tightly in her hand. She concentrated all her energy, continuously pouring spiritual power into the fragment. A powerful and mysterious force emanated from the fragment.

This force, like an invisible thread, slowly coiled around the ice beast. Sensing the anomaly, the ice beast twisted its body angrily, trying to break free from the force's hold.

However, the power of the Brahma Bowl fragment was not so easily shaken off. The ice beast's movements became sluggish, and its attacks were no longer as fierce as before.

"Now!" Lin Shushu shouted. Mo Ze and Xiao Jingping heard her shout and immediately understood her meaning, and attacked the ice beast again.

The ice beast roared angrily, struggling desperately to break free from the power of the Brahma Bowl fragment. Frosty energy surged wildly around its body, clashing with the power of the fragment.

The battle had reached a critical juncture; all three were giving it their all, none daring to relax even slightly. The ice beast seemed to sense the impending doom, unleashing unprecedented power. Within the icy abyss, spiritual energy and icy chill intertwined, the battle reaching its climax.

Seemingly cornered, the ice beast suddenly roared fiercely, its cry echoing through the icy abyss. Then, its limbs slammed furiously into the ground like heavy hammers. In that instant, the bottom of the abyss seemed to experience a powerful earthquake, shaking violently.

The once solid ground could no longer bear the weight, and jagged cracks appeared, spreading rapidly like a spider web and growing larger and larger.

Caught off guard, Lin Shushu and her companions were caught off guard by this sudden turn of events, instantly losing their balance. At this critical moment, the ice beast used its last ounce of strength to frantically resist the power emanating from the Brahma Bowl.

Under its desperate counterattack, a powerful shockwave spread outwards like a surging tide.

Lin Shushu was the first to be hit, blasted to the edge of the crack by the force. Then, she was struck by the combined force of the Brahma Bowl and the ice beast, and fell uncontrollably into the depths of the crack.

The ice beast, also affected by the backlash, fell into the crevice along with a shower of ice shards.

Seeing Lin Shushu in danger, Mo Ze didn't have time to think and jumped down without hesitation. He had only one thought in his mind: he couldn't let Shushu face danger alone, no matter what.

Xiao Jingping intended to jump into the crevice as well, but at that critical moment, something unexpected happened. The crevice, which had been widening, seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and slowly closed itself.

The ice walls pressed against each other, making a dull "crackling" sound, as if trying to seal everything in this dark abyss.

Xiao Jingping was stunned. He stared wide-eyed at the scene before him in disbelief.

"What happened?" He was filled with shock and confusion. The wide-open crack had vanished without a trace in an instant, as if it had never existed, leaving only a smooth, pristine ice surface.

"You must hold on!" Xiao Jingping shouted towards the crack he had just seen, his voice filled with worry and anxiety. He suppressed his inner turmoil, quickly composed himself, and began searching the bottom of the icy abyss for a way to rescue them.
