Chapter 141: Ice River Seals the Island

  The two of them stayed in the cave for three days.

  For three days, even in the cave, they could still feel the temperature outside gradually dropping, getting colder and colder.

  Xuanbing Han Yan is one of the Heavenly Fires, existing since the beginning of heaven and earth. It possesses a self-aware consciousness and is an extremely special form of life between heaven and earth.

  The island of Monro was volcanic, and the powerful deity who had sealed it here had used the volcanoes to suppress it, attempting to merge this mysterious flame into the sea of consciousness, but ultimately failed for unknown reasons.

  Xuanbing Cold Flame has been sealed, and the mysterious symbol inside the glacier is a kind of seal that seals Xuanbing Cold Flame.

  After thousands of years, the sealing power gradually weakened, and the Xuanbing cold flames continuously eroded the ban, finally emerging from the depths of the earth with a corner, revealing itself on Menluo Island.

  The four major forces, wanting to obtain the secret of the glacier, continuously bombarded the glacier with crazy bombing, consuming the already weak sealing power, finally allowing the Xuanbing cold flame to escape, forming thousands of Xuanbing beasts to wreak havoc on Menluo Island, making Menluo Island a volcanic land, life and death are uncertain. The Xuanbing cold flame is heavenly fire, unless it's a strong person in the divine realm, otherwise it's difficult to seal the heavenly fire.

  The warriors of the four major forces, once they discovered that the glacier was hiding Tianhuo, did not dare to hesitate and fled from the glacier at the fastest speed, leaving Monro Island.

  Xuanbing Beast is formed by the condensation of Xuanbing Cold Flame's cold air, and on the icy island of Menluo, the Xuanbing Beast can continuously receive an endless supply of Xuanbing Cold Flame's cold air.

  The cold air will make the Xuanbing beast as hard as iron, agile in movement, and the number of Xuanbing beasts is vast, making it difficult for the warriors of the four major forces to defend against, so they retreated.

  Xia Xinyan knew the ferocity of the Xuanbing Beast, so to prevent being overwhelmed by it, she quickly dug out a cave and hid inside to avoid its attack.

  It's been three days.

  The chill outside gradually intensified, and the island of Menluo was quiet and silent, as if the Xuanbing beast had also disappeared from this place.

  "The Xuanbing beast is condensed from the Xuanbing cold flame, and after the creatures on Menluo Island are exterminated, the power on the Xuanbing beast's body will be reabsorbed by the Xuanbing cold flame. Judging by time, there shouldn't be any more Xuanbing beasts on this island," Xia Xinyan furrowed her brow and pondered for a moment before saying, "We can go out and look for opportunities to leave Menluo Island." "Once the warriors of the four major powers escape, they will definitely spread the news here as soon as possible. By then, there will surely be strong gods who covet the Xuanbing cold flame, descending upon Menluo Island from various regions. When that happens, this island will become even more chaotic... it's time to leave," Shi Yan nodded in agreement.

  Four days of recovery, under the effect of the Undying Warrior Soul, Shi Yan returned to his peak.

  Having gone through this ordeal, Shi Yan's state of mind seemed to have changed again. Between life and death, his life seemed to have been sublimated, and he had a faint sense of breakthrough.

  A hundred tribulations, one must go through various hardships to realize the threshold of breakthrough and step into a new realm.

  This realm is not just about needing a sudden enlightenment of concentrated spirit and light, but even more important.

  The boundary is not enough, even if the essence is sufficient and thick, it's hard to go further.

  This calamity is greatly beneficial for both him and Xia Xinyan.

  The two of them worked together, moving the rocks that blocked the stone cave one by one to the back, slowly approaching the entrance.

  Before long, the last few rocks were moved away, and the two of them walked out of the stone cave.

  As soon as they came out of the stone cave, their faces changed and they looked shocked.

  Under the moonlight, it is a crystal glass world. All things have frozen into thick ice, and the earth is also covered with several meters of cold ice.

  A thorough chill pervades the entire world, as if a white mist wraps around heaven and earth.

  Two people are in the icy and snowy land, can't see a bit of green, can't find a piece of gray earth.

  The entire Isle of Man underwent a heaven-reversing and earth-overturning transformation, with the nearby extinct volcano turning into a glacier that towered high and sparkled with crystalline light under the moonlight, like a dream or an illusion.

  In the far distance, one by one, warriors maintained their running posture, but were frozen into ice sculptures, forever losing their lives.

  The vast island of Menlo, due to the existence of Xuanbing Huoyan, seemed to have become a piece of eternal ice, with ice blocks and glaciers everywhere.

  Spiritual energy dispersed everywhere, unable to detect even a hint of life fluctuations, the Xuanbing beast also disappeared completely, turning into scattered ice sculptures that seemed lifelike.

  "Everyone on Monro Island may have been frozen to death, it's truly a disaster." Xia Xinyan sighed. "These four major forces' warriors, in order to learn the secrets of the glacier, broke the seal of the village's Ice Flame, and finally let the Ice Flame escape from its seal, freezing Monro Island. The people living on Monro Island are really pitiful."

  Shi Yan's expression was cold and indifferent, saying lightly: "I don't know how many of the four major forces' warriors escaped this disaster, I truly hope they also died under the Ice Flame."

  "The strong ones in the Heavenly Rank move extremely fast, the people they brought should be able to hide for a while. The Heavenly Pool Sacred Ground has many powerful secret treasures, that Holy Maiden Guan Jingqing and her group should also be able to escape, but unimportant characters should also die on Monro Island. Those who weren't taken away by the strong ones in the Heavenly Rank, if they didn't hide in the mountain caves like us, are probably very hard to survive."

  "Ka ka ka!"

  Thousands of miles away, a dead volcano, the mountain body cracked open with elegant shadows, slowly emerging from the broken cave, the first person, was none other than the Holy Maiden Lí Zhēn Qíng from the Heavenly Pool Sacred Ground.

  Behind Di Yanqing, a group of beautiful women from the Tianchi Sacred Land looked shocked and frightened by the strange changes on Menluo Island.

  Xia Xinyan's eyebrows furrowed, and she quietly covered her face with a veil, saying in a low voice: "It seems that smart people are not just the two of us. They should also know how to avoid the Xuanbing beast. There must be some secret treasure on their bodies that can quickly open up caves. I knew this woman wouldn't die so easily." Tingting Yuli stood far away, her expressionless face a stark contrast to her snow-white palace attire. Her cold eyes seemed to hold a hint of curiosity as she gazed at the two figures in the distance, wondering how they managed to survive.

  Nai Diyan Qing gazed in this direction for a while, then softly informed the several beautiful women beside her. After that, Shi Yan saw two women of different status slowly walking over.

  The two women had an arrogant expression, their snow-white faces were covered with frost, and they were as cold as the present-day Monro Island.

  Two women, about thirty years old in appearance, with long legs and a tall stature, both having phoenix eyes, willow-leaf eyebrows, hair flowing down to their shoulders, slender waists, and elegant steps.

  Two women slightly raised their heads, with a cold expression, and after coming over, one of them said lightly: "Our Holy Girl wants to see you two, follow us." After speaking, the two women only glanced at Shi Yan and Tuo Ye indifferently, then turned back with an air of superiority, as if they thought it was a great honor for Qu Shuang Qing to receive them.

  Xia Xin's eyes narrowed in anger, and she let out a low hum.

  Shi Yan furrowed his brow and said indifferently, "Quite an attitude." The two women seemed to have heard the voice behind them and turned around together, their eyes gleaming with hostility. The woman who had spoken first glared at them coldly and snapped, "What are you whispering about?"

  "It's nothing," Xia Xinyan replied calmly, tugging at Shi Yan's sleeve to signal him not to act rashly. She lowered her head slightly and pulled Shi Yan along as they walked in that direction.

  Soon, Shi Yan and the two women from the Heavenly Pool Sacred Grounds arrived beside Tian Xing.

  Di Yan's hair was combed into a cloud-like bun, her appearance wasn't particularly striking, but a pair of eyes like autumn water gave off an air of coolness. She stood there, frowning at Shi Yan and the others, saying lightly: "When did you come out? Have you found anyone else on the island? Have you seen any strange objects?"

  Shi Yan sank his breath and shook his head. "We just came out too, we don't know anything about the current situation on Monroe Island."

  Gu Yan Qing gazed deeply at Shi Yan, pondered for a moment, and instructed in a light tone: "You two, go to the Ice Canyon Exposed Land and take a look. No matter what you discover, as long as you come back and tell me, I'll reward each of you with a Xuan-level weapon." The Ice Canyon Exposed Land was where the Xuan Bing Cold Flame was sealed. It's highly likely that the Xuan Bing Cold Flame is hidden deep within the ice canyon.

  At this time, going to that area is a must, once discovered by Xuan Bing's cold flames, it will be certain death, and there will be no possibility of escaping the disaster.

  The people of Tianchi Sacred Land didn't dare to take risks and go there themselves, but instead let Shi Yan and the others be cannon fodder and go to their deaths, which is extremely vicious.

  "Sorry, we barely survived and don't want to go die in the past," Shi Yan said with a serious face, shaking his head firmly. "We're about to leave Monroe Island, that mysterious-level weapon of yours, I'm afraid I won't be able to appreciate it." "Huh?" Qu Feng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, showing a hint of displeasure.

  "Little one, you have to go, whether you want to or not," a full-figured woman with a chest as plump and firm as small hills, her face cold and her eyes icy, "if you don't go now, you'll die immediately!"

  Shi Yan's face changed color.

  "Hiss! Hiss!"

  A voice pierced through the air from afar, and soon after, Chen Shi appeared alone, with Dongfang's sister, a youthful-looking old woman with white hair, holding the Dongfang seal in one hand and the ancient sword song in the other, flying swiftly from outside the island of Menluo.

  Gu Jian Ge wore the dragon-slaying sword, which had a sealed fire cricket beast inside. The fire cricket was a flame demon that had a restraining effect on cold objects in icy lands, so it was brought along together.

  Four people in a row, Chen Jie and the old sister are in the Tianwei realm, the Dongfang Kongque Pan realm, and the Gujian Ge Baijie realm.

  Four people have spread the news of this place and are waiting for reinforcements to arrive, but they are also worried that Xuanbing Huoyan will change, thinking that there may be other treasures in the ice river. After the Xuanbing beasts disappeared one after another, greed arose again, and they went back and forth.

  "Huh!" Dongfang Que let out a soft cry, and the old woman brought him and Gujian down to stand beside Qu Xuanqing.

  Chen Du lowered his head and took a glance, then flew down and stood behind Shi Yan and Xia Xinyan.

  "Zhao Rong, what's wrong?" Chen Duo asked, glancing at the plump and beautiful woman of Tianchi Holy Land who was coldly staring at Shi Yan and his companion.

  "We wanted to let these two go and take a look at the situation first, but they don't seem to be cooperating," Zhao Rong said with a smile on her face as she faced Chen Duo. "Oh, I'm discussing it with them right now, heh, didn't expect you guys to come too." Chen Duo and his group furrowed their brows upon hearing this, looking at Shi Yan duo with displeasure.
