Frozen Moment!

Levi, who was being followed, remained calm and prepared.

After arriving at a deserted spot outside the city, he turned around and asked in a puzzled tone, "I shouldn't know you, why have you been following me?"

The big man opposite him shrugged and said casually, "I didn't expect the master to be so capable. I followed the master with no ill intentions. I just wanted to invite the master to join a huge force that you can't even imagine."

"What kind of power? Tell me about it," Levi asked knowingly.

"Master, you'll understand once you come with me. In short, please rest assured, I have absolutely no intention of harming you. I am, after all, a Great Knight, and naturally I would not bully the weak." The big man's threat was clear even without his expression.

It means if you obey me, I'll keep you safe.

Otherwise, as a Great Knight, dealing with a blacksmith like you would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it? This was the Great Knight's confidence. He knew that Terra Master himself also had considerable strength, but compared to himself, he was still far inferior.

Only Great Knight truly knows the difference between a Great Knight and Knight.

Many Peak Knight often become complacent after acquiring good equipment, and then challenge the authority of the Great Knight, ultimately meeting a particularly tragic end.

Shark Tooth dared to lead a few Knight into a Baron's territory; his confidence stemmed from his overwhelming strength.

Shark Tooth Knight respected this master Forging, after all, anyone who can reach the pinnacle in their field is no ordinary person.

But that's all; he came with a mission.

He's been wandering around outside for almost half a year now, and of the three tasks the Black Mountain Duke gave him, it seems he can only complete the one about bringing the master back.

"If you don't tell me where you're taking me, how can I dare to go with you?" Levi smiled bitterly and prepared to leave.

Shark Tooth sneered, "Master, let me give you one more piece of advice. I am ordering you to come with me, not begging you, otherwise I will show you how treacherous this world is."

"What... what do you want to do?" Levi asked gravely.

"Don't worry, as long as you come with me obediently, I naturally won't lay a hand on you. Otherwise, I'll have to resort to force." After Shark Tooth finished speaking, the Great Knight's terrifying aura swept towards Levi!

"You..." Levi was furious, but finally shook his head and sighed helplessly, "I will go with you, but please give me some time. I still have some things to take care of in Icewind City. After I finish taking care of them, I will go with you immediately."

"Okay." Shark Tooth said, then looked at Levi warily and said, "But I have to follow you, just in case you have any ulterior motives."

"Don't worry, I, Terra, don't do those kinds of things. I just have some wealth here, and I need to take it with me," Levi said.

The Shark Tooth Knight's expression shifted, and then he agreed.

He followed Levi from a distance, and with his speed and explosive power as Great Knight, he could stop Levi from making any small moves in time.

As they walked, the Shark Tooth Knight followed Levi to a volcanic crater lake nestled among towering mountains.

"You wait for me here. I'm going to the island; I have some things there." Levi pointed to a small island in the middle of the lake.

This is the burial plot he carefully selected for this Great Knight during this period of time...

This Heavenly Lake is considered a relatively remote tourist spot near Icewind City, but at this time of year, the weather is still cold, so few people come here.

The reason Levi brought this Great Knight here was naturally to fully unleash the power of his Frost Giant's Sigh.

Shark Tooth Knight didn't think much of it; many people like to hide their treasures in the wilderness, which is actually safer than hiding them at home.

"I have to go with you," Shark Tooth said coldly.

"But I don't have a boat, so I can only swim across. The water is very cold right now. You are a Great Knight, are you sure you want to swim across with me?" Levi said helplessly.

"Heh, don't try to be clever." Shark Tooth Knight sneered, following directly behind Levi.

Ripples spread across the lake. Levi swam in front, and the Great Knight swam behind. The Great Knight was worried that Levi was a good swimmer and might use the lake to escape, so he swam closer and closer to Levi.

Levi patiently calculated the distance between himself and the Great Knight behind him.

"Twenty meters."

"Fifteen meters."

"Ten meters."

"Wait a little longer. The power of the Frost Giant's Sigh increases the closer it is to me. Its power at the edge may not pose a threat to the Great Knight."

Six meters.

Five meters.

After Shark Tooth got five meters away from Levi, he stopped approaching Levi.

He remained cautious, worried that Terra Master might try to outsmart him and cause him to suffer a setback.

For example, using poison, or Quicklime, etc.

Maintaining a five-meter distance gives him enough space to react.

After seeing that the other party was no longer approaching, Levi continued swimming.

And so, maintaining a distance of five meters between them, Levi swam to the shore. The moment he stepped ashore, he immediately activated the spell solidified on his armor: Frost Giant's Sigh! A mournful and desolate sigh seemed to echo in the void.

Behind Levi, a giant phantom, two stories high and covered in frost armor, slowly emerged.

This scene happened so suddenly that the Great Knight was shocked and realized that he had been tricked!

Accompanied by a snap of the Frost Giant's fingers.

Frozen Moment!

Within a ten-meter radius of Levi Wei, the temperature plummeted in the blink of an eye! A biting wind swept through, freezing the lake! The Shark Tooth Knight, still swimming in the lake, were completely engulfed in ice—their wet clothes, armor, hair, and skin were all frozen solid!

He remained frozen in the lake, like an ice sculpture.

However, his strong physique and the Black Qi prevented him from dying immediately.

Black Qi was seen rising from the armor on the shark's teeth.

His Great Knight fighting spirit allowed him to use enough Black Qi to cover his entire body to resist the deadly icy power just before his physical body was frozen.

Although his body is still stiff and he is severely frostbitten, he has not died immediately!

The Black Qi was warming his blood, while billowing white steam was rising! It seemed to be melting the solid ice!

This was something Levi had already guessed.

The Great Knight is a powerful figure who stands at the pinnacle of Knight, second only to the Legendary Realm.

Black Qi is inherently a kind of extraordinary power.

Without hesitation, he took advantage of the moment when the Great Knight was frozen.

He held Frostmourne was imbued with the Human-Faced Spider's Tears.

The Black Snake Seed, the Giant Rhinoceros Seed, the Sea Siren Seed, Human-Faced Spider Seed! All four Seed of Life bestowed upon Levi power and courage!

Golden Cross Slash! Intermediate Ripple!

The perfect cross-shaped Cross Slash was like the Grim Reaper's scythe!

He arrived before the Great Knight amidst his shocked and bewildered gaze.

Click click.

Levi's all-out attack, a Intermediate Ripple Slash!

It shattered the Great Knight's iron helmet and pierced through it.

Then, Frostmourne seemed to strike the incredibly viscous asphalt, blocking the aftershocks of Levi's attack.

Levi remained calm and unleashed a large amount of the Human-Faced Spider Breath, breathing it all into the Great Knight's face. He refused to believe that the Knight would remain unbreathed.

Then, taking advantage of the last moment of freezing, Levi unleashed the Flame Stream Seal!

A torrent of flames, close-range attack! Even with the Great Knight's thick Black Qi, Shark Tooth is not a specialist in defense.

If the iron helmet hadn't blocked Levi's force, this sword strike would have been enough to pierce the Shark Tooth Knight's Black Qi and sever his head!

The crimson flames instantly scalded the Shark Tooth Knight into a bald head. The Black Qi dissipated under the scorching heat of the flames, and the high temperature burned the Shark Tooth Knight's face beyond recognition, leaving his flesh charred and mangled.

However, it was clear that the opponent was not completely dead yet! Just as Levi was about to form a hand seal to unleash another Flame Stream Seal.

Suddenly, Spider Sense struck my arm, and the hairs on my arm stood on end!

At the same time, the Intermediate Vibration Sense also sensed the force fluctuation.

Upon seeing this, Levi quickly retreated.

A large hand filled with Black Qi, like a demonic claw from Hell, reached out to grab Levi's chest with the force of Black Tiger tearing out its heart.

Levi didn't even have time to cast the Guardian Seal.

Although Levi reacted quickly, the claw still managed to grab Levi's chest.

The leather armor was torn, and even the Dragon Armor was covered in cracks, though it wasn't completely broken.

The force pierced through the Dragon Armor and struck the Frost Giant Armor.

Levi felt a tremor in his chest and his body flew backward.

Although he managed to withstand the attack, the inhuman, savage power still made his chest feel tight.

He flew backwards a long way, crashed to the ground, immediately got up, and was unharmed.

The Frost Giant Armor could indeed withstand the attacks of the Great Knight, which reassured Levi considerably.

The terrifying figure stood up. His face was unrecognizable, and he was blind. His life was nearing its end due to the rapidly decreasing temperature; this was merely his final, death throes.

He staggered toward Levi, but Levi easily dodged him; it was because they were too close to avoid him.

"I know you are one of the Black Mountain Duke's men!"

Levi flashed behind the Great Knight, stabbed him in the back with Frostmourne, and shattered his armor with Golden Cross Slash.

The Great Knight, who had almost lost his five senses, charged toward Levi with his broadsword, driven by his fighting instincts.

Levi had already prepared the second Flame Stream Seal.

The blazing flames engulfed the Great Knight's body.

The armor was scorching hot, contrasting sharply with the icy lake water and ice shards.

A stark contrast of ice and fire erupted, white vapor rising ten meters into the air! The Great Knight attacked frantically, but couldn't touch Levi at all.

His consciousness teetered between lucidity and confusion, teetering on the brink of collapse.

In his world, there is only ice and fire!

After Levi's fifth Flame Stream Seal.

The Great Knight's entire armor was covered in a layer of black ash, and the flesh beneath the armor was covered in severe burn marks, which was quite gruesome.

Even though the Black Qi was invincible, it couldn't see Levi, was severely frozen, and moved slowly. How could it be a match for Levi? The Great Knight stood alone in the icy lake water, and Levi's Human-Faced Spider Breath and Human-Faced Spider's Tears took full effect.

Ice, fire, poison, and all sorts of sword wounds.

The invincible Shark Tooth Knight, with his charred and twisted face, stared in Levi's direction. After letting out a final, unwilling roar from his burning throat, he slowly collapsed.

Levi waited a long time, continuously finishing off enemies from a distance with his bow and arrows.

Once he could no longer sense the other's breathing through Intermediate Vibration Sense, he quickly used Frostmourne to shatter his heart, making it absolutely impossible for him to rise from the dead.

As the phantom of the [Giant Toothed Shark] at his heart vanished, the Great Knight perished completely.

Levi was panting heavily, drenched in sweat. This hunt for the Great Knight had been a close call, but he escaped unscathed.

Everything went pretty much as he expected. The Frost Giant's Sigh was very powerful, but the Great Knight reacted too quickly. If they hadn't been in the lake, the Frost Giant's Sigh, while capable of freezing the opponent and slowing their movements, would certainly not have been as effective as it is now.

According to the witch Gulveig, the spell "Frost Giant's Sigh" is more about control than killing. It freezes the enemy's bodily fluids by lowering the surrounding temperature, thus freezing their body and restricting their movement.

This spell is merely solidified on the Mithril armor; its power certainly cannot compare to that cast by Formal Wizard.

But for Levi, that power was already enough.

With so many trump cards at his disposal, he truly accomplished a feat that is likely unprecedented and unlikely to be repeated:

With the body of Knight, kill the Great Knight!

This battle also allowed him to personally experience just how difficult it was to deal with Great Knight.

One reason was the armor, and the other was the opponent's powerful Black Qi and body.

Although this Great Knight is not a specialist in defense, like the Empire's Fist, once you reach the Great Knight level, you no longer have any obvious weaknesses compared to Knight.

Similar to the Stand panel in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, if Shark Tooth's power is an A, then its other attributes might be C or even B.

After Levi had rested, he looked at the completely cold Great Knight and began to loot the corpse.

This is my first time touching the Great Knight's corpse; I wonder what good stuff it will drop.
