Chapter Seventy-Five: The City of Ice Seal
The law enforcement officer's skinning knife was inserted into the ice and snow by Su Dong, forming a formation of eight gates.
There is no doubt that under the thick ice layer there are strange creatures, Su Dong now wants to break through this thousand-year-old ice and charge in!
Taking a deep breath, Su Dong clasped his hands together in a seal and shouted loudly: "Dragon Armor Double Gates, Open!"
Rumble...
Then a dull sound came, as if a thunderbolt had fallen from the sky!
This thickness of unpredictable ice cracked, with fine cracks appearing, but it was not destroyed.
"Reopen!"
"Reopen!"
Three times in a row, Su Dong used the Thunder Sound Formation from the Qimen Array to attack the ice layer, but it only shattered and showed no signs of collapse.
Su Dong walked along the outer perimeter of the formation, carefully observing the situation where the ice layer was fractured. Seeing that the cracks had extended to more than ten meters below the ice layer, Su Dong put away his own magic tool and switched to using the Broken Sword Disrupting the Rainbow.
"Green falls into the yellow spring, two layers of heaven!"
Su Dong let out a loud roar, and with great force, he swung the residual knife in his hand. The eerie-colored spiritual sword, accompanied by two distinct sword shadows, fiercely struck the ice surface.
The general idea of this set of kung fu moves was already understood by Su Dong, every time he upgraded a level, he would increase a bit of mysterious power, this kind of power wasn't contained within the weapon, but was released!
At present, Su Dong has two layers of Tian Xiu, assuming that Su Dong's spiritual power is one hundred kilograms, according to common sense, this knife can only be worth one hundred kilograms of spiritual power at most.
But Biliu Huangquan Jiuzhongtian, unexpectedly doesn't follow common sense! Including the weapon itself, with that eerie knife shadow, together it will exceed three hundred catties!
Boom boom boom~
So when Su Dong swung this knife down, what echoed was not one sound, but three!
Boom!
The ice layer with a thickness of over ten meters was finally smashed by Su Dong!
A city in the snow and ice, miraculously appeared before Su Dong's eyes!
……
Whoosh!
Su Dong stepped into the icy city through the smashed entrance with excitement.
Everywhere are buildings made of ice blocks, ice sculptures, ice lanterns, and snow-built fortresses. The humans who once lived here were highly skilled craftsmen, constructing a magical world out of the cold ice.
Although it's been a long time, these buildings are still well-preserved. As Su Dong walks down the street, he can feel the bustling scene of people coming and going from years ago.
Look up and you'll see a thick layer of ice, tens or even hundreds of meters thick, like a vaulted ceiling. If you're not careful, even if someone walks by here, they won't notice that there's still a magical place hidden beneath the snow and ice.
Su Dong was somewhat perplexed, wondering who had built such a massive ice and snow architectural complex. Where had the people who built all this gone? And what about the cast-iron map that led him to this place - who had left it behind? What was its purpose?
Su Dong walked in the Icebound City, thinking to himself. Although he was under a layer of ice, the translucent property of the snow and ice made for decent lighting here. In the distant walls, there were even some glowing pieces of ice.
The city was laid out in an orderly fashion, and Su Dong walked down a main road to arrive at the square, where the most magnificent building in the entire city stood: the Crystal Hall!
The cylindrical ice pillar is dozens of meters thick, and there are 99 such pillars in total, each exceeding 200 meters!
And this is just the roof of the Crystal Palace!
As she walked in, Su Dong couldn't help but shout loudly. This building under the ice and snow was absolutely a miracle in human architectural history! The square building seemed to stretch endlessly like a vast grassland, with neat ice blocks beneath her feet and huge icicle chandeliers hanging above her head!
People in it, as if they were in a crystal world! Everything is transparent, and because of the vastness of this crystal hall, Su Dong even felt that he was small like an ant.
"Just running around the hall once would take a whole day." Su Dong said to himself.
At the farthest end of the hall was the throne of ice.
Nor did he know who had built this throne, but it was actually a hundred meters high!
If Su Dong wants to climb up and sit for a while, he needs to find an extremely long ladder or use ropes to climb like mountain climbing.
"It's too exaggerated to make the throne like this, unless it's a giant of two or three hundred meters high, who can sit in such a huge chair." Su Dong shook his head and muttered to himself.
Su Dong played a big trick, and it turned out that he took out two daggers and inserted them into the ice crack, crawling up towards the icy throne.
……
A hundred-meter-high throne was no match for Su Dong, who had already reached the Spiritual Martial stage. He climbed up like a gecko, agile and nimble, and in just a short while, he ascended to the Ice-Sealed Throne.
Turning back, Su Dong was completely shocked!
Standing in the Crystal Palace and standing on this icy throne are two completely different landscapes!
It turned out that this huge crystal palace was divided into two layers, the lower layer was semi-transparent ice bricks, and the upper layer was completely transparent!
Standing on the throne, you can see the magnificent Icebound City at a glance!
"I suppose the king who ruled this city back then stood here, admiring his beautiful city." Su Dong said to himself.
This super huge ice throne can even run a horse carriage. Su Dong walked around it and found that the center of the throne was somewhat strange.
That place inlaid a brick, a very special brick.
Since this is an ice-sealed city, everything is made of ice, but this one obviously isn't, because it doesn't have any chill to it.
Su Dong used his hand to touch it and found that its material seemed to be a kind of crystal, with many patterns and designs on the surface, which made it very beautiful.
Suddenly, an anomaly occurred!
It was unclear what mechanism Su Dong had triggered, but this brick suddenly rose up!
Su Dong's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and after this brick was completely raised, Su Dong found that it was actually the Casting Star Platform!
Su Dong had seen this thing in Ye Xiaosheng's house, but Ye Xiaosheng's casting platform was made of iron, whereas this one was made of crystal!
"Masterful!" Su Dong exclaimed, "To cleverly hide the Star Forging Platform here and blend it seamlessly with the ice structure, truly a great hiding method."
Su Dong couldn't help but gently stroke the casting platform with his hand, although Su Dong was not a casting master and didn't know the secrets of the casting platform. But judging from the quality of this platform, it must be much better than Ye Xiaosheng's.
"It should be worth at least 100,000 taels of silver." Su Dong said to himself.
Suddenly, a flustered voice came over, "One hundred thousand taels of silver!? You actually put Ice God Platform and Golden Silver on the same level! This is simply an insult!"
Su Dong was taken aback, this voice actually came from inside Zhu Xing Tai, it seemed like an old man was speaking.
Without any hesitation, Su Dong immediately cast out his magic tool upon hearing the voice, forming an Eight Gates Array!
The Star Platform was square and sturdy, but no matter how Su Dong looked at it, it didn't seem like it could hide a person.
"Who are you?" Su Dong asked in surprise.
The Crystal Palace was silent, with no one answering Su Dong's question.
She frowned and reached out to touch the Zhuxing Platform again, but that annoyed voice sounded once more, "Don't touch! Whatever you do, don't touch! This is the Ice God's Heavenly Platform! It's not something you can handle!"
Su Dong said in a low voice: "Who are you? Come out and talk."
"If I could get out, would I still need you to say so!?" The annoyed voice sounded again.
Su Dong said in surprise: "How did you run into this Zhuxingtai?"
"I'm telling you again, this is not Chou Xing Tai, but Bing Shen Tian Tai!"
Su Dong shook his head and said, "It's just a name, why bother being so entangled. Do you want me to destroy this thing and let you out? However, this Star Casting Platform doesn't seem like it can hold a person. Are you human or ghost?"
"What business is it of yours?!" The old man continued to shout at the top of his lungs.
Su Dong quietly used both hands to seal the imprint, silently activating the Eight Gates Formation, wanting to thoroughly investigate this strange Casting Star Platform, to see what kind of weirdness was inside.
Snap!
At the same moment Su Dong activated his formation, the throne of this god king suddenly shattered!
The ice block shattered into powder in an instant, and Su Dong and Zhu Xing Tai fell rapidly downwards together.
It turns out that under this throne of God is empty!
"I told you not to touch the Ice God's rooftop, but you had to! Now look what's happened! You've gotten me killed!" The voice shouted in exasperation once again.
