Chapter 9: Frost
A series of over ten wind blade techniques were launched, and surprisingly, a gap was cut out of the massive net by Lin Li.
The cries sounded exceptionally tragic, with blood continuously seeping from the wounds. In the blink of an eye, the Leviathan gorilla's entire fur was stained red
Damn it, you dead gorilla... Lin Li hid behind a tree, panting heavily while desperately thinking of a countermeasure
The power of an eighth-level beast is truly formidable. Fortunately, the one encountered now is the Leviathan Gorilla, an anomaly. Had it been another ferocious and bloodthirsty eighth-level beast, he would likely have been torn to shreds by now
Wait... Giant Net
After consuming the recovery potion, Lin Li glared fiercely at the massive net above him: "You have guts, you dead gorilla!"
The staff of winter was held in hand, and a familiar magical fluctuation coursed through Linli's entire being. The deep and prolonged incantation resonated through the woods, and with the chanting of this arcane and obscure spell, the surrounding air seemed to drop to freezing point in an instant. Feeling this powerful magical force, Ina ceased her weeping and simply stared blankly at Linli beneath the tree. Even the Leviathan gorilla in the giant net seemed to forget its strange laughter; the innate nature of high-level magical beasts told it that it had already fallen into danger.

Even the Leviathan gorilla in the giant net seemed to forget its strange laughter; the innate nature of high-level magical beasts told it that it had already fallen into danger.
Amidst the cries of despair, the Leviathan gorilla finally fell down.
After a frostbite technique, there follows a blade of wind
A sudden thought flashed through Lin Li's mind; he felt as if he had grasped something.
After the vine was frozen by the frost-binding technique, it also lost all its moisture. Although the wind blade technique cannot cut through the tough vine, it is more than sufficient to break the ice.
Along with it, there was also Ina, who was bound up like a zongzi.
What is even more dire is that amidst the relentless wind blades, Lin is constantly applying the Slow spell. Under the restraint of the Slow spell, the Leviathan gorilla is utterly tormented, unable to flee, unable to pursue, and if it remains stationary, it is left battered and bruised by the wind blades.
By the time the leaping and laughing Leviathan gorilla sensed something was amiss, it was already somewhat too late. The giant web, which had lost its balance, was collapsing, and no matter how it jumped around, it could not prevent the rupture of the entire web.
After gaining a temporary respite for himself and the books, Lin Li no longer dared to waste any time. He opened the Ring of Endless Storms and took out a bottle of blue potion from within.
Having lost the cover of the giant net and with no coconuts in hand, for a moment, that Leviathan gorilla was even worse off than a toothless tiger
With a series of piercing sounds, ice shards flew through the air in all directions
Frost settled! The final incantation was shattered by Lin Li's shout, and the crystal at the tip of the staff emitted a dazzling light. A wave of cold air radiated outward from Lin Li, sweeping through the vast web.
By the time Lin Li recovered from the barrage of coconuts, his entire body was already covered in bruises of various shades, as if he had been painted with different colors for a performance art piece
"I will dismantle your bird net and see if you can still laugh!" Since stepping out of the wooden cabin, Lin Li took out his staff from the spatial ring for the first time. This was the only item given to him by Anduin, a magic staff embedded with the magic crystal of a frost giant beast. Lin Li named it—Winter.
Laozi commands you to laugh again! Lin Li, while helping Ina untie the bindings of her body, did not forget to continue unleashing wind blades.
This is a clear potion made from a mixture of ghost grass juice and leaves from the Tree of Wisdom, which can significantly increase the range of spellcasting. However, because Anduin has always opposed his excessive reliance on potions, only three bottles were made in total. Drinking one bottle means one less, and Lin Li can only feel a pang of pain in his heart.
Countless blades of wind repeatedly slice through; even the toughest skin cannot withstand such onslaughts
This dead gorilla is truly monstrous; it is an eighth-level magical beast, possessing a terrifying level of strength and speed. At this moment, it is also fighting on its home turf, and its massive net resembles an impenetrable barrier, with razor-sharp wind blades shooting up that cannot even cut through a single vine.
Gagagagaga! The Leviathan gorilla does not care about such matters; after letting out a strange laugh, it painted an even more joyful expression on Ina's face with a brush
Lin Li took the lead to catch Ina, but then turned around and executed a delayed technique on Leviathan the gorilla
The dignified level 8 monster is actually forced to roll on the ground, and looking again, where is the previous arrogance?
In a rain of coconuts, Lin Li finally found a gap. He leaped into the air, narrowly avoiding danger, and hid behind several giant trees. Here, the interconnected giant trees formed an excellent hiding spot, at least for a short time, as the coconuts from the Leviathan gorilla could not reach this place.
Where the cold wave passed, there was only a vast expanse of white. Under the severe cold brought by the frost, every vine within the area was frozen into blocks of ice. The area was not very large, probably only a few dozen meters, but for Lin Li, it was already sufficient
Lin Li listened to the sound and felt a tingling sensation on his scalp
Lin Li had just caught his breath when the Leviathan gorilla on the giant net began to cackle ominously. Lin Li looked up and saw that this creature had somehow managed to bring back a large pile of coconuts. Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Li truly felt overwhelmed; if he did not resolve the issue with the giant net, he would indeed be crushed to death by coconuts today.
At that moment, the Leviathan gorilla launched a new wave of assault. This time, the rain of coconuts was even more intense and violent than before. Several coconuts came crashing down in succession; although none struck Lin Li, they caused the giant trees beside him to resonate with loud thuds.
It's come to this point, and there is no time for Lin Li to think it through. Whether this method works or not is irrelevant; regardless, it must be attempted, and if it doesn't work, it must still be attempted.
This is truly exasperating
Lin Li had been suffering all day under the relentless rain of coconuts. At this moment, having the upper hand, he showed no courtesy towards the Leviathan Gorilla. "Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," a series of over ten wind blades shot out, striking the gorilla so fiercely that it couldn't even lift its head. The wind blade itself was merely a low-level spell, but after completely breaking free from the constraints of the incantation, it became the most direct and effective means of attack. Coupled with Lin Li's abnormal mental strength, the wind blades were like a continuous river flowing endlessly.
Even a powerful Level 8 magical beast, in the face of this terrifying barrage of wind blades, finds it somewhat difficult to withstand. A few strikes can still be endured thanks to its tough skin, but when the number of wind blades soaring in the air reaches dozens, the qualitative change brought about by the quantitative increase renders the Leviathan gorilla's resilient skin a mere joke
A small gap is gradually widening amidst the relentless onslaught of the wind blades.
However, the target of this wind blade technique is not the Leviathan gorilla within the giant net, but rather the frozen vines.
