"I'll be sure to repay An Lin the next time I see him!"
Lü Dongbin came to his senses and spoke with a respectful expression.
How could he not know what the black dragon was trying to do? It was clearly trying to use him to repay An Lin.
As for why the black dragon wanted to repay An Lin even though it had been killed by An Lin, that was not something a normal person like him could understand. In any case, he wasn't going to pry too much into it unless he was crazy.
The black dragon nodded with satisfaction before suddenly opening its cavernous mouth and inhaling sharply toward the sacrificial altar.
Boom!
An earth-shattering suction force erupted, causing the massive sacrificial altar to begin to crumble.
A dark black vortex appeared in the black dragon's mouth, and it was imbued with a suction force capable of engulfing all things. In the end, the white fragment at the bottom of the sacrificial altar was still sucked into its mouth.
"Hahaha … Nice! It's a fragment of the realm core! Is this the present you're giving me after my resurrection? That's a good deal! "The black dragon wagged its tail excitedly.
Lü Dongbin's lips twitched, but he didn't say anything. However, his heart was throbbing with pain.
All of a sudden, a sudden turn of events unfolded.
A mighty force suddenly descended from heaven and earth, acting upon the black dragon's body, causing its tough dragon scales to suddenly crack open and blood to splatter through the air.
"Howl!" The black dragon wailed in agony and almost plummeted from the sky. "What kind of power is this? Why can't I resist it?! "
Lü Dongbin came to his senses and spoke in a panicked voice, "Senior! This crumbling heaven and earth can no longer accommodate Return to Void Stage living beings who are close to Dao Integration Stage. Any living beings of this level who enter this realm will suffer backlash from the laws of heaven and earth! "
"This continent has already become like this?!" The black dragon gritted its teeth as if it was enduring some kind of terrifying power. "Where is your alternate world teleportation badge? Let me sense it!"
Lü Dongbin handed his teleportation badge to the black dragon without any hesitation.
"The world you're in gives me a very familiar feeling, as if it's the twin of this world … No, it's more appropriate to describe it as two mirror worlds …"
"I'll leave this place first. It takes a lot of energy to travel between the two worlds with my physical body. If I stay here any longer, I'll probably die again." The black dragon swung its tail and immediately tore through space to escape.
Lu Dongbin sighed as he watched the black dragon take away the fragment of the world core with a wave of its tail.
Sigh … I've been busy for the past few days in vain again …
Ancient God Realm, Snow Abyss Mountain.
Hong Dou was traversing through a massive cave. His massive rock body was curled up into a ball, and he was trembling uncontrollably. The red flames in front of his chest were extremely dim, as if they were on the verge of being snuffed out.
"Hang in there. The Hanging Ice Lake is right in front of us!" An Lin gritted his teeth and persisted.
The ceiling of the cave was covered with barbed icicles that emitted a chilling aura. The entire space was shrouded in blue cold air.
There was a bright blue lake about a kilometer away from the cave, and the blue cold air was emanating from it. Even in such a frigid environment, there were no signs of ice forming over the lake.
The closer they got to the Hanging Ice Lake, the more terrifying the power of frost became.
"Xiao Tu said that snow soul beasts live at the bottom of the Hanging Ice Lake. I wonder if that's true. Even if it's true, who's going to go down there and capture them …" Liu Chuchu's teeth chattered. Her body was quite weak to begin with, so she was less resistant to the cold. Her petite body was curled up into a ball, and she was unable to keep out the frosty air.
"I'm a good swimmer, so I can go down there." Ling Ying volunteered.
He was the one who was the least affected by the power of frost, and he floated through the air with a calm expression.
An Lin nodded. "Tina, Liu Chuchu, and I will provide support in case of emergency. Hong Dou's flames are quite powerful, so he'll be responsible for illuminating the area and keeping the cold at bay. "
He turned toward Hong Dou as he spoke.
"Huh? Where's Hong Dou? "
An Lin faltered slightly as he discovered that Hong Dou had disappeared!
Everyone was also startled to discover that Hong Dou had been frozen into an ice sculpture a few dozen meters away.
Hong Dou had his arms wrapped around his chest, and his legs were spread wide open with fear and indignation etched on his face.
Everyone: "…"
An Lin's lips twitched. "Isn't he very bad * ss at using fire? What's going on here?"
Ling Ying scratched her head with a resigned expression. "Hong Dou's flames are the flames of life, which means that flames are like life itself. Life is afraid of the cold, so flames are also afraid of the cold. Hence, in order to protect itself, Hong Dou has voluntarily withdrawn his power …"
This was the first time they had heard of flames that were afraid of the cold …
"In other words, Hong Dou is now extremely afraid of the cold, so he's completely useless?" An Lin rolled his eyes.
An awkward expression appeared on Ling Ying's face. "Let's ignore him and exclude him from the distribution of treasures …"
Everyone nodded upon hearing this. No sh * t!
Thus, everyone arrived at the edge of the Hanging Ice Lake. The bone-chilling frost continued to spread through the surroundings, and they had no choice but to unleash spell techniques to defend themselves.
The lake was a deep blue and bottomless abyss, and the darkness at its depths seemed to be threatening to engulf all living beings.
"Hmm … I can't do this anymore, I'd better get away from here …"
Liu Chuchu's long, beautiful hair was covered in frost, and her teeth were chattering as she retreated a hundred meters away from the lake.
If it weren't for this snow soul beast, she wouldn't have come to this accursed place to suffer in the cold.
The snow soul beast was one of the ten legendary beast pets of the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, and it possessed an extremely powerful ice-type dao foundation. If nurtured well, it could even reach the Return to Void Stage with no issues.
Apparently, it was also extremely adorable!
Just from its appearance alone, it was able to enchant countless female cultivators and become the number one beast pet that all female cultivators yearned for!
However, its population was extremely small, and it only appeared in the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, so there were very few people who owned it.
Even on the entire Tai Chu Continent, there were less than ten people who owned a snow soul beast.
Liu Chuchu was ecstatic when she heard about the whereabouts of the snow soul beast from Xiao Tu, and she immediately vowed to capture a snow soul beast and take it back with her!
They really did find the Hanging Ice Lake. Now, all that was left was to see if there were any snow soul beasts in the lake!
"I'll be back soon, you guys wait outside."
A layer of white liquid enshrouded Ling Ying's body before she began to dive into the lake.
An Lin squatted down and touched the surface of the Suspended Ice Lake with his hand. The clear blue water was like blades of ice that cut into his skin relentlessly. The frosty aura was extremely destructive, and it soon left countless tiny wounds on his skin. The wounds then solidified, and they were cut open again, solidified, and cut open again … The cycle repeated itself.
"What an interesting power …" An Lin's interest was piqued.
Just as he was about to continue, countless bolts of lightning suddenly exploded over the surface of the lake.
Boom!
A pillar of lightning soared into the sky, immediately following which Ling Ying's body appeared above the lake.
"Huh? So fast?! "An Lin faltered upon seeing this.
"Run! There are too many snow soul beasts in there! "Ling Ying yelled as she began to flee toward the exit of the cave!
Too many snow soul beasts?
An Lin and Liu Chuchu's eyes lit up in unison.
Run my a * s!
They were worried that there wouldn't be enough snow soul beasts to go around, so it was a good thing that there were more of them now!
Ling Ying hurriedly waved her feelers to hurry the two of them away. "The snow soul beasts are very powerful! I only managed to escape after using a life-saving talisman! "
Her voice had only just fallen when countless splashes erupted over the surface of the lake as a series of figures began to appear.
The snow soul beasts had appeared!
