In the early morning of this morning, Lin Qin was practicing the control of vibration frequency on the ice field. Several ice cubes of different sizes were placed in front of him. He needed to break the inside of the ice cubes evenly without damaging the surface.
After more than a month of practice, he has been able to precisely control the intensity and frequency of vibrations. Now he can turn the inside of an ice cube into powder with a single tap of his finger, while the outside remains intact.
Just when he was concentrating on practicing, a strange energy fluctuation suddenly came from the distance. Lin Qin immediately became alert, put away his practicing posture, and concentrated on perception.
That wave of energy carries a biting chill, and is approaching quickly. Judging from the intensity, the person coming is at least Saint Realm level.
After a moment, a white shadow rose from the snow line in the distance. It was a huge monster, its whole body made of crystal ice, which reflected bright light in the sun. It had a lion-like appearance, but there were rows of ice spikes growing on its back, and its four claws were as sharp as knives.
"Ice Crystal Beast." Lin Qin recognized this Arctic Ice Plains unique Saint Realm monster. It is said that they feed on ice, can control the power of extreme cold, and have extremely strong defense.
Ice Crystal Beast obviously also discovered Lin Qin. It let out a low roar, with a harsh sound like metal friction. It accelerated towards Lin Qin. Wherever it passed, the water molecules in the air instantly condensed into tiny ice crystals.
Lin Qin did not dare to be careless and immediately activated his whole body Battle Qi. The earthy yellow light was strong, forming a solid protection on his body surface.
Ice Crystal Beast suddenly stopped a hundred meters away from Lin Qin, opened its huge mouth and sprayed out a stream of white cold air. Wherever the cold air passed, even the air was frozen, forming a path of frost that went straight towards Lin Qin.
Lin Qin did not dodge or evade, and punched forward with his right hand. Battle Qi, which carried high-frequency vibrations on his fist, collided head-on with the cold air.
"Boom!"
The two forces collided, erupting into intense energy fluctuations. The surrounding snow was instantly cleared, revealing the black frozen soil underneath.
Lin Qin felt an extremely cold force coming down his fist, trying to freeze his meridians. He immediately activated Battle Qi to force the coldness out of his body.
"What a powerful ice force." Lin Qin was secretly shocked. This Ice Crystal Beast was stronger than he expected.
Seeing that the cold attack was ineffective, Ice Crystal Beast immediately changed its tactics. It jumped up suddenly and clawed at Lin Qin with biting coldness. Wherever the claws passed by, even the space seemed to be torn apart.
Lin Qin dodged sideways, and at the same time pointed at Ice Crystal Beast's ribs. The finger force carried a precise vibration frequency, trying to destroy Ice Crystal Beast's body structure from the inside.
However, Ice Crystal Beast's defense was far beyond imagination. Lin Qin's finger force only left a shallow pit on the ice crystals on its surface, which was quickly repaired by the flowing ice energy.
"It's really tricky." Lin Qin frowned. The defense power of this Ice Crystal Beast is comparable to fine gold, and it is difficult for ordinary attacks to cause effective damage.
Ice Crystal Beast pounced again, this time the ice spikes on its back suddenly shot out, sealing off all the space for Lin Qin to dodge like a sharp arrow.
Lin Qin had to defend with all his strength. He pushed forward with both palms, laying down a thick khaki light curtain in front of him. The ice spikes hit the light curtain, making a dense collision sound.
Some ice spikes penetrated the light curtain and made several wounds on Lin Qin's body. The blood was frozen as soon as it flowed out, and the biting cold spread into the body along the wounds.
Lin Qin groaned, urging Battle Qi to force out the chill, and at the same time quickly thought of countermeasures.
"Its weakness must be found."
While dodging Ice Crystal Beast's attack, he observed carefully. Soon, he noticed a particularly bright crystal on Ice Crystal Beast's chest, where the strongest energy fluctuations were emitted.
"That's it!"
Lin Qin decided to take a risk. He deliberately used a flaw to let Ice Crystal Beast's claws brush his shoulder. The moment the claws reached his body, he forcibly twisted his body and pointed his right index finger at the crystal on Ice Crystal Beast's chest as quickly as possible.
This finger condensed all his mental power and Battle Qi, and the vibration frequency was adjusted to the extreme.
"Pfft!"
The finger hit the target accurately. Ice Crystal Beast let out a shrill scream, and fine cracks appeared in the crystal on the chest. The cracks quickly spread to the whole body, and finally with a "bang" sound, the entire Ice Crystal Beast exploded into countless ice crystal fragments.
Lin Qin stood there panting, the wounds on his body still bleeding. This battle lasted for a full half day and was the most difficult battle since he broke through to the peak of the Saint Realm.
But the gains were huge. Under the pressure of life and death, he became more proficient in the use of "Earth Pulsation", and the control of vibration frequency reached a new height.
He collected some core fragments of Ice Crystal Beast. These materials containing pure ice power may be useful in the future.
Two months later, Lin Qin has completely adapted to practicing in the extremely cold environment. Now he points a finger, which not only causes the ice cubes to break evenly inside, but also precisely controls the range and shape of the breakage.
"It's time to move on."
