Ruijin and Honglian were immediately shocked when they saw Black Fish turn into an ice statue in the blink of an eye. Black Fish had origin energy armor for defense and origin energy weapons for offense. He could even remain undefeated against an expert like the Holy Emperor, yet he could not even withstand a single blow from protector Shui. He had been frozen without being able to put up any resistance at all. They finally witnessed the terror of those who had surpassed the Holy Emperor.
Jianchen and Nubis also stared at Black Fish in shock as their hearts churned.
Yu Fengyan could also tell that Ruijin's group had come into conflict with protector Shui, so she immediately became nervous. She knew that Ruijin and Honglian had assisted her in coming here today, so she obviously did not wish for anything to happen to them. In her opinion, the three of them had travelled so far to come to the Ice Goddess Hall because of her. If she caused trouble for Ruijin's group, she would feel guilty.
"Senior, for Mingyue's sake, can you not make things difficult for senior Ruijin, senior Honglian, and senior Black Fish?" Yu Fengyan asked loudly. She really did not wish to see Ruijin's group become trapped here because of her.
Protector Shui's eyes were cold and emotionless, like ice that could never be melted. She had heard Yu Fengyan's plea, but she was not moved at all. She did not even glance at Yu Fengyan, treating her like she was invisible.
In reality, if it were not for the fact that the saintess was extremely close to Yu Fengyan as a mother, she would never have allowed Yu Fengyan to stand there unscathed.
"Will the two of you choose to let me destroy the saint artifact or remain here forever?" Protector Shui asked Ruijin and Honglian coldly.
"Hmph, even if we know we're not your opponent, we'll never hand over our legacy treasure. If you want to destroy our legacy treasure, you'll have to step over our corpses," Yu Fengyan coldly replied. Rui Jin said coldly. Golden light erupted from his body as the Sacred Dragon's Armor and Sacred Dragon's Sword shone with dazzling golden light. Terrifying shockwaves of energy revolved around him as a layer of fine golden dragon scales rapidly appeared, covering his entire body. Even his hands had turned into two huge dragon claws.
At the same time, flames surged around Ruijin. With a clear phoenix's cry, Honglian turned into a huge phoenix that was several dozen meters long. The Ninerefined Godfire Feathers covered her body while the Scorching Godfire Hairpin hovered above her head. The scarlet flames around her rapidly turned white, radiating with terrifying heat...........
"Nubis, second aunt, return to the artifact space first." Jianchen did not remain idle while Ruijin and Honglian fought. He immediately sent Nubis and Yu Fengyan into the artifact space.
A deafening dragon's roar and phoenix's cry rang out at the same time. Ruijin and Honglian struck out at the same time.
They used their full strength without holding back at all. The golden Sacred Dragon's Sword shone with dazzling golden light as it shot toward protector Shui with a great might that could make the world tremble.
The Scorching Godfire Heavenly Hairpin was enveloped by a ball of scorching white flames. It radiated with a terrifying heat that was comparable to the sun. With a swish, it turned into a streak of white light and shot toward protector Shui at unbelievable speed. Wherever it passed, the air would turn charred. The terrifying heat seemed to have set the air ablaze.
"Looks like you've made your choice. Very good!" Protector Shui coldly said. A gleam of light flashed through her eyes, and the Sacred Dragon's Sword and Scorching Godfire Hairpin came to a halt. An invisible barrier seemed to obstruct them. No matter how terrifying the might of the two weapons was, they were unable to advance any further.
In the next moment, a layer of ice appeared on the Scorching Godfire Heavenly Hairpin and the Sacred Dragon's Sword. The sharp sword Qi on the Sacred Dragon's Sword and the terrifying white flames on the Scorching Godfire Heavenly Hairpin were unable to stop the ice from spreading. Wherever the ice passed, the sharp sword Qi would be frozen while the white flames that were as hot as the sun would be extinguished instantly. In the blink of an eye, the origin energy weapons that were unstoppable on the Tian Yuan Continent had been frozen in the air by a thin layer of ice.
Ruijin and Honglian were filled with shock. In the next moment, their faces suddenly froze, turning into an eternity. This was because a thin layer of ice had silently appeared on their bodies. Before the two of them could react, the ice had enveloped them with lightning speed, turning them into ice sculptures.
Although the ice crystals were weak, they contained unimaginable power. Not only did they freeze their bodies, but they also sent a stream of extremely cold air into their bodies, freezing the energy in their bodies and freezing their souls at the same time.
At that moment, Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish's minds froze at the same time. Time seemed to have stopped for the three of them.
"Senior Ruijin, senior Honglian, senior Black Fish!" Jianchen's eyes became bloodshot as he called out loudly. He arrived beside Ruijin and constantly threw punch after punch at the ice. Every single punch contained his full strength. He wanted to shatter the ice and free Ruijin and the others.
Unfortunately, while the ice seemed thin, it was extraordinarily tough. Jianchen's punches, which could easily crush a mountain, only produced muffled sounds when they struck the ice. Let alone shattering the ice, they did not even leave behind a mark.
Seeing how his punches were ineffective, Jianchen pulled out his Emperor Armament and stabbed out as hard as he could.
"Ding!" The sharp tip of the Emperor Armament struck the translucent ice and produced a crisp sound. His attack had almost reached the peak of the Seventh Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor, but it still failed to leave behind a single mark.
Jianchen did not give up. He roared at the sky as his hair danced wildly.
With his clothes fluttering in the wind, the Emperor Armament constantly struck the ice around Rui Jin, producing crisp sounds. He used his full strength every single time he swung his sword. However, even after several hundred swings, the layer of ice around Ruijin remained unscathed. Jianchen still failed to leave behind a single mark.
Protector Shui stood on the divine hall without moving at all like an ice sculpture. She coldly stared at Jianchen and said, "Go. It's impossible for you to break through my ice, even if you possess the strength of the Holy Emperor."
Jianchen also knew that it was impossible for him to break through the seemingly weak layer of ice with his strength. He stopped what he was doing and looked at protector Shui. He said, "Senior, you've already sealed up the origin energy treasure, so can you release the three seniors, Ruijin and the others?"
"I'm already letting you leave safely because of your relationship with the saintess, yet you still dare to raise conditions with me." Protector Shui's gaze became rather sharp as her voice became filled with heavy killing intent. With a wave of her hand, Jianchen suddenly vanished from the icy plains.
Jianchen only felt like his body had been tightly bound by an invisible force. The force was extremely powerful, making Jianchen feel like he was facing the vastness of the universe. He was as weak as an ant before the force, unable to resist at all. He could not even think about resisting.
"Oh no, is protector Shui going to attack me?" Jianchen's heart sank. However, as soon as he thought of that, he felt his body lighten. The tremendous force that had bound him suddenly vanished, and he felt a burning sensation. The world of ice and snow before him had vanished, and he stood on a desolate piece of land.
Jianchen knew that he had returned to the Tian Yuan Continent, but he was not happy at all because Ruijin and the others were still trapped in the arctic. They had not come out with him.
Suddenly, Jian Chen shot up from the ground and into the clouds. He hovered in the air and quickly found his position with a map. He discovered that he was not far from the sea that separated the north pole from the north pole.
With a thought, a speck of golden light immediately flew out from between Jianchen's eyebrows. It turned into a fist-sized golden tower that hovered in the air.
"Artifact Spirit, find a place to hide with my aunt and Nubis. I'm going to the Ice Goddess Hall. If I don't return in seven days, get Nubis to take you back to the Changyang Prefecture," Jianchen said to the golden tower.
With the order, the golden tower immediately disappeared into the ground as a golden streak of light. Jianchen made his way to the Ice Goddess Hall again by himself.
A day later.
Jianchen leapt over the vast ocean and landed on the icy plains once again. He then used the Illusory Flash and shot toward the depths of the icy plains as a blur.
Just when Jianchen had traveled less than ten kilometers, a terrifying stream of coldness seemed to descend from the sky. The temperature of the icy plains suddenly plummeted, quickly condensing into a layer of ice on Jianchen's body.
Jianchen knew that protector Shui was probably secretly warning him, but he showed no fear. He did not slow down at all as he circulated his Chaotic Force as hard as he could to block the terrifying coldness in the surroundings.
Jianchen would never allow the three of them to be trapped on the icy plains because of him. He knew that the only person who could save Ruijin and the others was Changyang Mingyue. His objective this time was very simple. He wanted to approach the Ice Goddess Hall again and alert Changyang Mingyue.
More and more ice crystals condensed on Jianchen, and his movements became rather sluggish. The bone-chilling coldness constantly attempted to invade his body in an attempt to freeze his vitality, but it was blocked by his Chaotic Force.
"If you don't leave the icy plains, you'll end up like the three of them," a cold and obscure voice clearly rang out in Jianchen's head.
"Senior, please release Ruijin and the others. Otherwise, I, Jianchen, swear that I won't let this matter go!" Jianchen called out. However, as soon as he said that, he felt an extremely terrifying stream of coldness envelop him. Even his Chaotic Force was unable to stop the stream of coldness for even a moment. In a single moment, Jianchen was frozen into a life-like statue, immobilized.
Jianchen lost control over his body. He tried his best to control his Chaotic Force to neutralize the stream of coldness, but as soon as his Chaotic Force came in contact with the stream of coldness, it was also frozen by the terrifying stream of coldness, losing control over it.
Jianchen was shocked. However, no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to stop the stream of coldness from invading his body. The coldness rapidly spread through his body, freezing his flesh and blood, freezing his vitality. Even the chaotic neidan in his dantian was frozen.
At the same time, the stream of coldness rapidly spread toward his brain in an attempt to freeze his soul.
