Ice Crystal Lockdown

"Clang!"

The Kunai collided with the ice blade, producing a sound like metal clashing. Farbauti, wielding the ice blade, began to grapple with Charlotte.

However, the next second, a surge of icy power spread from the Kunai toward Charlotte, freezing Charlotte in an instant.

Looking at the frozen Charlotte, Farbauti chuckled, "Even the Prime Merlinian is nothing special."

As he spoke, he continued his attack on Charlotte, swinging his ice blade to slice Charlotte to pieces.

"Crack! Boom!"

The ice blade struck Charlotte's chest, which was now an ice sculpture. The ice shattered, but Charlotte did not turn into pieces like the ice as Farbauti had expected. Instead, she was sent flying after the ice broke.

"Boom!"

Charlotte hurtled like a cannonball, crashing through many stone pillars before finally rolling on the ground and slamming her hands down to steady herself.

Brushing the dust off her clothes, Charlotte casually remarked, "You're quite strong."

Charlotte was somewhat surprised by Farbauti's attack, but he wasn't bothered. He hadn't suffered any damage from that attack, and the icy power hadn't even froze him. With his Undying Body, these attacks were unlikely to cause him any harm.

When Farbauti saw Charlotte stand up as if nothing had happened, he frowned slightly. Although his attack just now wasn't a full-force burst, its destructive power was by no means weak.

With a wave of his hand, Farbauti caused the water vapor in the sky to condense into countless ice spikes. Then, as his palm fell downwards, the ice spikes flew directly towards Charlotte's location.

"Swish... swish... swish!"

The sky was filled with ice spikes, like spears and arrows raining down on Charlotte, aiming to pierce his heart and kill him on the spot.

Seeing the terrifying attack range and speed, Charlotte didn't use the Substitution Technique, but instead made a Bagua gesture.

"Eight Trigrams Palms - Rotation!"

"Boom!"

Ice spikes rained down like an explosion, and a tremendous roar resounded within a hundred-meter radius of Charlotte's location, as if the ground itself had caved in.

In the instant she was attacked, Charlotte released a large amount of Gentle Fist Chakra from her Chakra points, spinning like a top and deflecting all the incoming ice spikes.

Under the "Absolute Defense," all the ice spikes aimed at Charlotte were deflected. With the end of the Rotation, Charlotte herself was unharmed and had blocked Farbauti's attack. However, looking around, all she could see were rows of ice spikes standing upright on the ground.

Seeing the ice spikes, Charlotte had a bad feeling and immediately searched for Farbauti, but looking around, she found nothing except the ice spikes.

Just as Charlotte was about to leave, she suddenly heard Farbauti's voice.

"Ice Crystal Lockdown!"

The ice spikes surrounding Charlotte seemed to come alive, instantly unfolding into huge, rhomboid Ice Crystal that the Nexus together to Charlotte inside.

From the outside, a giant Ice Crystal Gem composed of ice suddenly appeared on the battlefield, measuring over a hundred meters in size, Charlotte inside.

At this moment, Farbauti appeared outside the Ice Crystal Lockdown. She placed her hands on the Ice Crystal Lockdown, and the air inside the seal began to drop rapidly. Starting from the outside, the hollow interior of the Ice Crystal was gradually filled with ice.

Farbauti planned to completely fill the interior with ice, so that Charlotte would be completely sealed inside, like an insect trapped in amber, with no ability to move.

However, because the Ice Crystal Lockdown is enormous, it takes a considerable amount of time for the interior to solidify into ice; it cannot be done in a moment or two.

Inside the Ice Crystal Lockdown interior, Charlotte looked at the diamond-shaped ice wall that had appeared before her and asked uncertainly, "Is this an ice-type sealing barrier?"

Looking at the increasingly thick ice wall in front of her, Charlotte Hand Seals and immediately...

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

The massive fireball, originally ten meters in diameter, was shrunk by half inside the Ice Crystal Lockdown, becoming only five meters in diameter.

"Boom!"

The Fireball Jutsu struck the ice barrier, but failed to shatter the ice wall. It only extinguished after merging with a small portion of the ice. The ice that had melted into water then turned back into ice in the next second, and the ice wall expanded inward at an increasingly faster rate.

Seeing that the power of her Fireball Jutsu she had just used to test the waters, had been reduced so much and the damage it caused was so negligible, Charlotte knew that the power of fire-attribute Ninjutsu was greatly limited inside this Ice Crystal Lockdown interior.

Seeing the ice spreading towards her, Charlotte retreated, creating distance between herself and the ice wall, and retreated towards the center of the seal.

The internal temperature was extremely low. Charlotte's breath would instantly freeze into frost, and her body heat was being rapidly drawn away, leaving her in a state of hypothermia.

Charlotte immediately activated Scorch Release: Kekkei Genkai, and four Scorch Release fireballs flew around her, dispelling the intense cold inside.

While Charlotte was studying the Ice Crystal Lockdown inside, Blue Snake was the first to succumb on the outer battlefield. He was dragged out of the ground by two Frost Giant. Just as he was about to be frozen to death, Blue Snake broke free from his psychic powers, turned into smoke, and returned to the Summoning Realm to recuperate.

Watching the Blue Snake in their hands turn into smoke and dissipate, the two Frost Giant ' commanders looked at each other, somewhat puzzled as to what was going on. Looking around at the battlefield, they saw that the giant Toad was still putting up a stubborn resistance, so they immediately joined the attack.

With the addition of two more Commander-level Frost Giant, Gamakichi was unable to withstand the onslaught and was forced back to the Summoning Realm after using the Toad Short Sword Slash once more.

Seeing the Gamakichi and the Blue Snake disappear one after another, a commander-level Frost Giant asked, "What happened? Where did they go?"

"I don't know. Just like when they appeared, these battle pets also disappeared."

The four turned their gaze toward the Katsuyu, only to see the last commander-level Frost Giant had been blocking the Katsuyu melting away in the acid, lifeless.

The Katsuyu's enormous body was very conspicuous on the battlefield. Its 300-meter size made it look like a small mountain. The attacks of the frost Frost Giant were like tickles to it. No one could stop it wherever it went, and it even killed two commander-level Frost Giant.
