Chapter 1332
byPutting the matter of the array token aside for the time being, Yang Kai secretly decided that when he went back, he really had to ask Yang Yan. If she could indeed refine array tokens, then in the future, there would be no need for any array disks or array bases. Just let her refine a few array tokens and carry them with him, and he could set up a large array anytime and anywhere.
After a while, Fei Zhitu and the others also returned to normal. After a simple discussion, everyone continued on their way.
Along the way, from time to time, one could see some exotic flowers and rare herbs with intense spiritual energy casually planted in the nearby flower beds. Each of these exotic flowers and rare herbs was worth a fortune, and many of them were even good things that had long since become extinct, looking exactly the same as the real ones.
But having learned from their experience, after experiencing the torture of the Light-Splitting Cloud Sea Array Fei Zhitu and the others didn’t dare to touch these exotic flowers and rare herbs casually anymore, for fear of accidentally triggering some array restrictions again.
Yang Kai, however, had a strong interest in these exotic flowers and rare herbs. Because with his knowledge and judgment, he found that among these things planted in the flower beds, there might really be genuine products.
That is to say, those things were not all traps, but real rare medicinal herbs. However, he was not completely sure, and more importantly, he had to rescue Qian Tong. Therefore, even though he was a little tempted, he could only follow behind Fei Zhitu and the others and continue to move forward, ignoring those strange flowers and exotic grasses.
However, he did silently remember the route, planning to come here to explore carefully and distinguish the true from the false if there was a chance after rescuing Qian Tong.
Even though everyone was cautious, they still encountered no small amount of trouble along the way. The forbidden arrays in this ancient ruin were impossible to guard against. Fei Zhitu, as a Return to Void 3-layer Jing powerhouse, had his spiritual thoughts constantly probing the surroundings, but he simply could not see the danger clearly.
Fortunately, there were still two array mages, Cai He and Du Sisi, in the team, who played a huge role. Whenever everyone was trapped by an array, the two of them would work together to break it, while the others guarded and resisted the attacks of the array beside them.
So along the way, although everyone was a bit embarrassed, there were no casualties Only the old woman suffered a slight injury and Yang Kai and Lian Guang, the two Saint King Jing , were protected very carefully and did not encounter any danger.
Unfortunately, after these arrays were broken, there was no such thing as an array plate anymore, which disappointed Cai He and Du Sisi very much.
After three days like this, several people stood in front of a spacious passage. This passage was spotlessly white, seemingly paved with pure white jade, without a speck of dust. However, within the passage, there was a creepy cold air. Strands of cold air were almost visible to the naked eye, gathering into various forms in mid-air. And on both sides of the passage, there were ice cones standing upright, looking like a mountain of swords. Each ice cone shone with a glittering cold light, making people’s hearts hair stand on end.
Even when standing in front of the passage and not really entering, everyone was still affected by the cold and severe chill, with frost forming on their eyebrows and hair.
“This should be that ice path!” Fei Zhitu’s expression was solemn, as if talking to himself or telling everyone.
“With such a cold chill, how did Elder Qian pass through before?” Ning Xiangchen’s old face turned slightly pale. He thought that if he fell into this passage, I’m afraid he would be frozen into an ice sculpture in a short while and simply cannot reach the end.
Although Qian Tong was a powerful cultivator at the third level of the Void Returning Realm, if he doesn’t have a strange treasure to restrain the cold here he wouldn’t even think about bringing that Saint King-level weapon refiner through here.
“I heard that Elder Qian obtained a Blazing Fire Pearl decades ago. Presumably, it was by relying on the power of this pearl.” The old woman said thoughtfully on the side.
Fei Zhitu nodded slightly: “That’s right, Old Ghost Qian really has a Fiery Pearl. Otherwise, when he came here, he would definitely have to back down in the face of difficulties.” Having said this, he turned his head to look at Yang Kai and asked, “Can you do it?”
Yang Kai narrowed his eyes and looked at that passage. Instead of answering, he asked, “Does City Lord Fei know how long this passage is?”
Fei Zhitu slowly shook his head: “The message Old Ghost Qian sent didn’t mention it, so I don’t know how long this passage stretches. But since Old Ghost Qian was able to bring someone through with the help of the Fiery Pearl, presumably it shouldn’t be too long.”
“If it’s not too long, there’s no problem,” Yang Kai stroked his chin and mused.
The reason Fei Zhitu brought Yang Kai along on this trip was to borrow the power of the weapon spirit, the Firebird, to pass through this ice passage. And now, naturally, it was time for Yang Kai to contribute.
Don’t worry, this city lord also has some preparations for this trip and won’t solely rely on your weapon spirit.” Fei Zhitu comforted him and beckoned with his hand. Suddenly, a secret treasure like a bronze bell appeared in the palm of his hand. However, the bronze bell was red, and a burning and pure fire aura emanated from it.
The Fire-Departing Shield!” Ning Xiangchen’s eyes lit up, and he smiled and said, “I didn’t expect Brother Fei to even borrow a secret treasure like the Fire-Departing Shield. In this case, passing through this ice passage should be a sure thing.”
Fei Zhitu chuckled and said, “Although the Li Huo Shield is the treasure of the Hall Master, and he rarely uses it even in battles with others, since it is to rescue Old Ghost Qian, he naturally won’t be stingy.”
Hearing him say this, Yang Kai and the other juniors then knew that this Li Huo Shield treasure was actually owned by the Hall Master of the Shadow Moon Hall, and Fei Zhitu had borrowed it for this operation.
Although the borrowed treasure couldn’t exert the full power of the Li Huo Shield, it was no problem to assist a little on the side.
Seeing this, Yang Kai nodded and felt relieved. With a thought, the Artifact Spirit Firebird rushed out of his body. Then, under Yang Kai’s command, it suddenly turned into a light screen, wrapping the eight people in the group.
The Firebird didn’t have a physical body originally. Although it usually appeared in the form of a bird, it could also change in countless ways.
And at the same time, Fei Zhitu spat out a mouthful of essence qi and blew it on the Li Huo Shield. With a press of Saint Yuan the Li Huo Shield immediately became bigger and covered everyone inside.
Under the two layers of protection, everyone felt a double sense of security.
“Oh, don’t squeeze me!” Du Sisi’s soft complaint came from behind. Yang Kai turned around and saw Cai He with a embarrassed smile on his face.
There is no other reason. It is simply because there are too many people. In order to exert the maximum power of the spirit Firebird and the Fire-Offensive Canopy, both Yang Kai and Fei Zhitu have driven their respective protections to the minimum extent.
As a result, it seems a bit crowded for the eight people to stand together. Cai He is eager to protect the beauty and naturally stands closely beside Du Sisi. Unexpectedly, the other party not only doesn’t appreciate it, but also complains.
Cai He has a good temper and doesn’t get angry. He patiently explains to Du Sisi.
“Let’s go!” Yang Kai greets and walks forward side by side with Fei Zhitu.
As soon as they step into the ice path, everyone can’t help but shiver. The silk of cold and chilly air like invisible sharp blades, pierce through the two layers of protection and stab straight towards everyone’s body, making everyone’s skin hurt.
With two layers of fire protection, it is still so terrifying. If there is no protection, I’m afraid they will suffer as soon as they step in here.
Everyone’s complexion changes. Du Sisi doesn’t have the mood to complain about Cai He anymore. Her pretty face turns pale and she even involuntarily leans closer to him, seemingly looking for some sense of security. Seeing this, Cai He is overjoyed and wishes in his heart that this ice path would have no end.
Yang Kai’s expression also became extremely solemn. He was connected with the spirit of the artifact, the Firebird, in mind, so naturally he could sense the coldness of this ice path more than anyone else. Every moment spent here, the strength of the spirit of the artifact, the Firebird, would be consumed a little more. Although it could be replenished, when exploring the ancient ruins the spirit of the artifact, the Firebird, was a great help to Yang Kai. Yang Kai didn’t want to consume its strength more.
Immediately, his steps couldn’t help but speed up a lot.
Before, when looking from the outside, it was impossible to see clearly the situation inside the ice path. But now, when setting foot in it and looking towards both sides, everyone’s complexion changed. It could be seen that the ice-attribute spiritual energy on both sides had become so rich that it formed a mist.
Although everyone understood in their hearts that under such cold conditions, after years of accumulation, there would definitely be some good things born. But no one was in the mood to explore and just wanted to leave the ice path as soon as possible.
After half a cup of tea, Yang Kai’s brows furrowed. He found that he seemed to have underestimated the length of this ice path. At this moment, when looking forward, he still couldn’t see the end of the ice path. When looking backward, he couldn’t see the way he came either. And the whole world was also eerily quiet, with only one or two sounds of heartbeat and breathing occasionally coming out, it sounds extremely strange.
After walking forward for a long time, Du Sisi’s exclamation suddenly came: “Look over there!”
Everyone was shocked and looked in the direction she pointed, and couldn’t help but change their complexions drastically.
Because in the line of sight of the crowd, there actually appeared human-shaped ice sculptures. Without exception, those ice sculptures were all vivid, standing less than thirty zhang away from the ice path.
These ice sculptures included men and women, the old and the young. Each person wore different clothes and had a different expression on their face. Some looked Youdaoplaceholder0 and delighted, some were extremely frightened, and some had a calm expression as if they didn’t realize what had happened before they died.
These ice sculptures were actually all formed by freezing living people!
“It seems that not only Old Ghost Qian discovered this ancient ruin.” Fei Zhitu let out a soft sigh.
These ice sculptures were clearly the martial artists who had come here to explore before, but for some unknown reason, they were all frozen there. There were no scars on their bodies at all, and there were no traces of battle either. Their deaths were extremely strange and inexplicable.
“This is…” A hint of terror flashed in Elder Ning Xiangchen’s eyes ashe stared at one of the ice sculptures and remained silent for a long time.
“Brother Ning, you also recognized him?” The old woman glanced at him.
“Since you also recognized him, then it should be correct. It is actually that person. I was only fortunate enough to see him once when I was young, but I didn’t expect him to fall here.” Ning Xiangchen let out a bitter smile.
“There are two seniors here who know someone?” Cai He asked in surprise.
“Well, two hundred years ago, a peerless genius famous on Dark Star. Although he didn’t come from Star Emperor Mountain, at that time it was rumored that he was the one most likely to break the shackles of Dark Star and promote to the Void King Realm. Unfortunately, since a hundred years ago, there has been no news of him. “Ning Xiangchen explained faintly.
“Such a genius has also fallen.” Cai He’s face showed a hint of regret.
“You guys take a closer look at the clothes of these people!” Fei Zhitu seemed to have discovered something.
