But using her healing ability would consume a great deal of her spiritual power.

Employing such precious power on someone who is merely Monarch Tier One seems hardly worth it.

"I can understand helping you regain your strength, but to help him..."

Although the Snow Woman didn't say it outright, both Gu Xing and Lilith understood her unspoken meaning—

She looked down on Gu Xing's weakness, perceiving that he wasn't much help.

However,

Lilith paid her no heed whatsoever.

"His strength surpasses yours. Hurry up; delaying further means the Snow Wolf Race might not hold on."

Hearing this, the Snow Woman was suddenly taken aback.

As far as strength is concerned, Lilith never lies.

If she said Gu Xing was stronger, then it must be true.

Though still slightly incredulous, under Lilith's constant urging, the Snow Woman eventually took action.

"Revive!"

With a soft cry, the entire cave was instantly enveloped in a white glow.

Gu Xing, bathed in this soothing light, felt invigorated, as every pore seemed to open, a gentle yet potent force circulating throughout his body.

Nurtured by this force, not only Lilith but also Liu Li and other guardian beasts quickly returned to their peak.

....

Meanwhile, the battle on the Insect Race battlefield had erupted fully.

Countless insects surged forward like a black tide, relentlessly assaulting Xue Li and the beasts she led.

In such a grand battlefield, individual power seemed minuscule, nearly engulfed by the endless insect sea.

Xue Li stayed calm and collected, uniting the Snow Wolf Race into a cohesive unit, commanding them to advance and retreat with grace, alternating attack and defense.

Under her precise guidance, the wolf pack acted as a silver-white barrier, tearing through and repelling wave after wave of insect attacks.

Insect limbs and carcasses continually fell from the air, accumulating into a chaotic mess on the ground.

Still, the snow wolves' eradication of insects was just a drop in the ocean for the entire insect tide.

The newly cleared gaps were quickly filled by fresh insect surges, seemingly endless.

Though the Snow Wolf Race temporarily held off the insect swarm, their stamina and demonic power were steadily depleting over time.

The battle line, though stable, had subtly turned fragile.

Once their strength wanes, annihilation will be inevitable.

Ying Bing was also within the battle line.

Despite her mere Monarch Tier One strength, her guardian beast—

The Profound Frost Ice Phoenix—enhanced its abilities significantly in this icy environment.

Each flap of its wings and every clear cry unleashed a biting cold wave, which, while not directly lethal to the insects, greatly impeded their movements.

Gradually, the insects' offensive began to falter.

The foes whose actions slowed by frost were swiftly torn apart by the snow wolf pack.

The Snow Wolf Race keenly noticed this, starting an instinctive counterattack centered around Ying Bing and the Profound Frost Ice Phoenix, achieving a silent harmony between ice and wolf fangs.

Meanwhile, on the other end of the battlefield, the fierce beast pack was also embroiled in a battle akin to the Snow Wolf Race's struggle.

Initially, fighting individually, they quickly succumbed to frenzied insect attacks, becoming scarred and wounded.

Harsh reality awakened them to a truth:

Only unity holds a slim chance of survival.

Thus, those fiercely solitary beasts began closing ranks, forming formations, desperately coordinating defense and counterattacks among the insect waves.

Despite continual injuries, at least—

They endured longer than before.

And across the entire battlefield, the most compelling showdown was between the Cold Snake and the two Totem-level insect adversaries.

The humanoid Cold Snake, standing amidst ice and insect corpses, locked its cold gaze on the two similarly humanoid insect champions.

Initially planning to feign engagement, observing the battle's dynamic before deciding its moves.

Yet the instant the insects launched an all-out attack, these two Totem-level beings unexpectedly charged straight at it.

What fueled Cold Snake's burning fury was—

Their eyes, the gaze it knew too well.

It was the gaze of looking at prey.

As though it is merely a meal awaiting indulgence.

"Mere insects... dare to regard me as food?"

Cold Snake slowly clenched its palm, knuckles slightly pale from the force.

Being one of the four reigning fierce beasts, it had never suffered such insult.

At that very moment, it was thoroughly provoked.

In the next instant, Cold Snake unleashed its entire aura without reservation—

"Boom!!!!!!!!"

A nearly tangible pressure soared skyward, enveloping the battlefield in an icy chill.

The insects of weaker existence suddenly halted motion, with even some Monarch-level insects subdued, their offensive noticeably slowed.

As an established King-level fierce beast nearing Totem Third-turn, when Cold Snake truly displayed its strength, the oppression it exerted—

Was downright terrifying!

And the two humanoid insects, sensing Cold Snake's unleashed pressure, felt a shock deep within.

Yet soon, shock turned into uncontrollable excitement.

——Such formidable prey deserves their utmost hunt.

Should they devour this nearly Totem Third-turn fierce beast, their power would undeniably transcend current limits, reaching higher realms!

But before that, they must stabilize the erratic low-tier insect swarm thrown into chaos by Cold Snake's pressure.

These low-intelligence insect soldiers easily succumb to aura disruptions, losing command devolves them into disarray.

The two humanoid insects exchanged a glance, birthing mutual understanding.

In the next instant,

They simultaneously released intense, stable pheromones, which spread through the insect tide like silent commands within moments.

At this moment, they became the true "brain" of the swarm.

The restless insects promptly restored order under this will's guidance, forming an airtight offensive again, advancing like a black iron stream.

Naturally, Cold Snake wouldn't let this opportunity slip.

Just when the two insects were distracted, pacifying their swarm, it brazenly attacked!

The nearly Totem Third-turn strength sped it to extremity, almost like teleportation, striking up to the two humanoid insects.

In its eyes, these two mere Totem Tier One insects should have been easily crushed in its grasp—

Cold Snake's palm instantly transformed into claws, wrapped in bone-chilling frost, directly targeting the opponent's throat!

Yet,

Just at the moment it was about to succeed, numerous low-tier insects surged forward without hesitation, forming a barrier with their flesh, blocking Cold Snake from the leaders.

Though Cold Snake was exceedingly powerful, the insect numbers were too vast, and each possessed at least Commander-level strength.

They could even distribute and absorb the energy within Cold Snake's attack—

Every insect bore a sliver before exploding to death, fearless, charging forward relentlessly.

Under this cost-ignoring defense, Cold Snake's claws were abruptly halted, unable to advance any further.

Witnessing this, Cold Snake's gaze suddenly turned icy.

It intended to catch them off guard, decapitate their leader, yet didn't anticipate these low-tier insects to be so tenacious and so—

Desperate!

Looks like things have gotten complicated!
