The Hydra Monster's varied magic attacks, although not breaking the defense barrier erected by the Wokou quartet, still left them scrambling in a frenzy.
Forced to be on the offense, the four could hardly hold their breath and focus, too busy to attack the Wraith Mage's Death Guard Barrier fiercely.
At the same time, the Frost Giants weren't idle either; they conjured and hurled ice spears one after another, wielding them with massive claws, their targets solely the Wokou.
The power of frost coupled with the giants' strength made the ice spear attacks exceptionally violent.
To avoid being struck by these ice spears, the Wokou had no choice but to keep shifting their positions in the air.
Overall, the battle on both sides remained at a stalemate where neither could get the better of the other.
Lord Zi, hiding behind the old turtle, eyes glinting with a shrewd light, was waiting for an opportunity to take a potshot.
