Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 383 Isolation

The Guishi Yao understood that although the howling had an emotional effect on the soldiers of the Tiecang tribe, it was extremely beneficial to Tie Hongyan's ability. Moreover, they found that the bigger problem was that even for ordinary soldiers of the Tiecang tribe, the emotional effect was only for a short time. The soldiers of the Tiecang tribe were somewhat affected at first, but after Tie Hongyan told them, "Don't be affected by the environment! Don't fall into the enemy's mind-attack!", many of them controlled themselves. The power of self-control should not be underestimated, and willpower will make them less affected. However, the subsequent sobriety of Tie Hongyan and those soldiers was not achieved by self-control alone. The heavy rain naturally reduced the impact of the howling on people's emotions. As batches of Guishi Yao were killed, the howling naturally became lower and lower. Of course, another important reason was that Tie Hongyan used the Huanying Spear Technique. This Huanying Spear Technique not only kept Tie Hongyan awake, but also played a huge role in keeping the soldiers behind awake. The Guishi monsters had originally thought that they could use their howling to win the battle, but under the influence of the Iron Red Flame Magical Spear Technique, their howling did more harm than good to them, and it could even be said that it almost became a factor that put them at a disadvantage. Therefore, the Guishi monsters gave up this method of winning that they had previously thought was the easiest, and no longer made any howling sounds that could increase the Iron Red Flame's power.

All the Guishi monsters that had fought against the Tiecang Army before were from the Luanxu tribe. The large number of reinforcements that came later included those from the Luanxu tribe, the Xinong tribe, and the Gujie tribe.

The Guishi monsters whose attack power was affected by the heavy rain recovered their magic power completely after the rain stopped. The Guishi monsters of the three tribes suddenly used their magic power together and instantly set up a transparent glass-like isolation wall around Tie Hongyan, completely isolating Tie Hongyan from the soldiers of the other Tiecang tribes. The Guishi monsters did this because they realized that the reason why the other soldiers of the Tiecang tribe were not affected by the howling was most likely related to Tie Hongyan's use of the Huanying spear technique. They believed that after using the isolation wall to imprison Tie Hongyan, even if Tie Hongyan used his magic power to ensure that he was not affected by the Guishi monster's magic power, it would not affect the other soldiers of the Tiecang tribe. In this way, they could attack the soldiers of the Tiecang tribe other than Tie Hongyan first. The space inside the isolation wall can accommodate more than 20 people who are neither fat nor thin, tightly packed together. The Guishi Yao originally wanted to shrink the space inside the isolation wall to a size that could only accommodate Tie Hongyan, so that she would not be able to operate the Phantom Tassel Spear. However, no matter how the Guishi Yao used his magic power, he could only make the space inside the isolation wall small enough to accommodate twenty or so people of medium size squeezed together. He could not make it any smaller. They also wanted to make the isolation wall opaque, so that Tie Hongyan could not see the world outside the wall, and the soldiers of the Tiecang tribe outside would not be able to know whether Tie Hongyan was alive or dead inside, and would be in a state of panic. However, the Guishi Yao's magic power still did not allow them to do so.

Tie Hongyan hit the isolation wall from the inside, and the soldiers hit the isolation wall from the outside, but the isolation wall seemed indestructible and did not change at all despite repeated heavy blows.

Tie Hongyan was speaking while surrounded by the isolation wall, and none of the soldiers behind him could hear him.
