On the Insect Race battlefield, the situation was extremely critical.
Due to the sudden betrayal of the Cold Snake, the defense line of the Snow Wolf Race completely collapsed.
Coupled with the Insect Race launching a full offensive, it was now solely relying on the desperate support of the fully unleashed Snow Guardian to barely shelter the entire race behind her.
At this moment.
The Snow Guardian did not release an energy barrier that could be easily consumed by the Insect Race, but rather condensed a solid extreme ice shield to firmly guard the Snow Wolf Race within.
However, this ice shield was already full of cracks at this point, obviously unable to last much longer.
The icy gaze of two humanoid Totem-level Insect Race beings locked tightly onto the Snow Wolf Race.
The prior escape of the Cold Snake had already infuriated them, and now they would not let any prey before them escape —
None of the creatures here are permitted to leave!
Inside the ice shield, every face of the Snow Wolves bore a fear they could not conceal.
Though they were not afraid to die in battle, at the juncture of life and death, instinct made them feel a suffocating oppression.
Ying Bing watched all of this, her pale fingers unconsciously clenching.
Even though her power had increased significantly, in the face of such a massive insect tide, the power of Monarch Tier One seemed negligible.
Without the protection of the Snow Guardian, she would instantly be swallowed by the sea of insects.
"Crrrack—crrack—!!"
The shield released by the Snow Guardian kept cracking.
Even though the shield was not purely composed of energy, it could not withstand the relentless attacks from the Insect Race —
An ineffective offensive is compensated with hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, until its complete destruction.
At this moment, the overwhelming masses of the Insect Race charged crazily toward the Snow Wolf Race.
Xue Li, watching the ever-approaching insect tide, whispered to Ying Bing:
"Ying Bing, this affair originally had nothing to do with you, but now you've been dragged into it... leaving is not an option!"
Ying Bing appeared very calm about this.
Before departing, she had already anticipated the outcome of this action —
The endless Insect Race is definitely not something the Snow Wolf Race can withstand.
But even so, she still came resolutely.
She has never been one to forget gratitude.
Despite longing to return to Longxia, when the Snow Country faced a life-or-death crisis, she still chose to lend a hand.
"This is my own choice."
Ying Bing's voice was clear and firm, "My life was saved by Lady Snow Woman, and even if I die in battle now, it's just returning this life to her."
Upon hearing these words, Xue Li's form trembled slightly, her gaze toward Ying Bing containing genuine respect.
If she were in Ying Bing's position, she might not be able to be so determined.
At this moment, the slight thorn in her heart caused by Ying Bing taking Lady Snow Woman's attention away also completely vanished.
"Alright!" Xue Li took a deep breath, her eyes sharpening, "Then, let us fight side by side from here on!"
The Snow Guardian had expended all her power guarding, unable to launch another attack.
The shield was shattered; from this moment on, they could only rely on themselves.
"Snow Wolf Race — listen to orders!"
Xue Li exclaimed loudly, and all the Snow Wolves responded in unison, with determined gazes:
"Snow Wolf Race, here we are!"
Xue Li's eyes condensed seriously, her voice echoing through the snowstorm:
"From now on, even if we fight to the last moment, we must kill as many Insect Race members as possible!"
"Every additional one we kill makes Lady Snow Woman a bit safer!"
"Understood!"
The face of each Snow Wolf bore the resolute determination of facing death.
As everyone watched, the ice shield that had been desperately supporting finally shattered completely —
The body of the Snow Guardian fell alongside with a thunderous crash.
At this instant, Xue Li shouted sharply:
"Snow Wolf Race — attack!"
Ying Bing was also inspired by this spirit of fighting to the death, following closely behind the Snow Wolf Race, boldly advancing toward the insect tide.
However, the disparity in power between the two sides was enormous.
Within the boundless ocean of insects, each time the Snow Wolf Race launched an attack, many of their members would fall.
After several charges, less than a hundred remained in the group, and almost everyone was wounded, with the most severe cases missing limbs, persevering only on sheer will.
Xue Li surveyed the fallen comrades around her, unable to hide the sorrow in her eyes.
Once a fallen Snow Wolf collapsed, the Insect Race would swarm over, leaving only bones within moments —
In just this short period, hundreds of white bones were added to the snowfield, all once her companions in running and fighting side by side.
Ying Bing's arm was trembling slightly.
This was not due to fear, but from excessive depletion of power.
She took a deep breath and reignited her Life Fire:
"Life Burning!"
Having reached this point, she held no retreats.
Burning her life was her last choice.
Yet she still harbored a trace of regret:
Until the final moment of her life, she never got to see the person she most wanted to meet.
In the sky, two humanoid Insect Race beings quietly observed all this.
Even they couldn't help but be amazed by the relentless will of the Snow Wolf Race.
Despite the race's unimpressive power, this courage to fight to the death was extremely rare among the countless civilizations they had destroyed.
For such opponents, they decided — to show the highest respect:
By personally taking action!
The figures of the two Totem-level Insect Race beings disappeared instantly, leaving only a distorted black spatial rift.
The next moment, they appeared like phantoms at the front of the Snow Wolf Race's formation!
Witnessing this scene, everyone was shocked.
Only Ying Bing was well acquainted with this power —
It was the "Void" Power mastered by Gu Xing's Guardian Beast Fei Yue.
These two Insect Race beings also mastered this ability!
Luckily, besides mastering the Void Power, these Insect Race beings did not possess other overwhelming strength.
Ying Bing burning her life, and Xue Li struggling to resist, the two astonishedly withstood the blow in this desperate situation!
Traces of surprise flashed through the eyes of the two Insect Race beings.
But that was all it was.
They launched their attacks again, their voices harsh and metallic:
"You're quite good, but this is all there is!"
"Before you die, remember the race that destroys you —"
"Void Insect Race."
Before they finished speaking, they gathered their offensive again, dark spatial energy slashed down like blades!
Ying Bing and Xue Li had exhausted all their strength and could no longer counter…
Yet at this moment—
A vast, enormous green vine suddenly burst through the ice field, rising into the sky ahead of the two, blocking the destructive energy like a canopy!
The attack from the two Insect Race beings struck the vine, giving off the sound of metal clashing.
This sudden change caused alarm within the two Insect Race beings' hearts.
Subsequently, they retreated immediately.
From this vine, they sensed danger.
And as the leaders of the insect swarm, they would never place themselves in peril.
Upon seeing the vine, Ying Bing was momentarily stunned.
The next moment, seemingly realizing something, she suddenly looked up.
Sure enough, a familiar figure appeared in her view.
