Chu Chen's body trembled slightly, and the heavenly fire protecting his body automatically released streams of warmth to his limbs and bones, dispelling the endless coldness.
Wang Cai, who had always been fearless, showed a rare look of uneasiness at this moment. It opened its eyes wide and stared at the Profound Ice Well, showing a strong fear in its eyes.
From the outside, the Profound Ice Well looked like an ancient stone well, with mottled traces on its surface.
The mouth of the well was a standard hexagonal shape, about a foot high, with some ancient carvings faintly visible on it. However, perhaps because it had been there for too long, it was impossible to tell what was written on those carvings.
However, Chu Chen, who saw this scene, was somewhat stunned.
The hexagonal stone mouth of this ancient well was obviously not formed naturally, but carved by someone.
This made Chu Chen ponder, 'Was this ancient well dug out by someone? Who on earth had such a great ability to dig out an ancient well in the Glacier Magic Mountain in the far north?! '
Moreover, the stone of this ancient well was also very shocking. In a place as cold as the far north, not to mention ordinary stones, even refined steel would become as brittle as ice under the extremely low temperature, and would shatter with just a little bit of force.
However, this ancient well had been standing here for god knows how many years, but the hexagonal mouth of the well had not been damaged at all, except for some mottled traces of wind and frost. This kind of solid stone was really shocking.
This was a kind of treasure!!
Slightly frowning, Chu Chen walked around the Profound Ice Well a few times, feeling a little worried, and sent his spirit sense into the well to check it out.
This ancient well was really evil. After all, it was connected to the legendary Profound Ice Ocean, and people had to pay attention to it.
The Land of the Extreme North was the end of the entire continent. If one went further north, they wouldn't be able to see any land. There was only a vast ocean that stretched as far as the eye could see. That was the legendary "Frozen Sea."
The far north was already so cold, so one could imagine how low the temperature of the Frozen Sea was.
It was said that it was a true life forbidden zone. Apart from some creatures with special resistance to the extreme cold, there were basically no other creatures.
Even Sect Masters, Sect Masters, and Family Masters were unable to cross that sea. Ever since the fall of the Ancient Mythological Era, that place had become a true land of mystery.
If one could cross the boundless Frozen Sea, one would be able to see the legendary 'Profound Ice Ocean'. Almost no one knew what kind of place it was.
Some people said that it was a sea completely covered by a thick layer of ten-thousand-year-old profound ice; some said that it was the end of the world; some said that it was the legendary Northern Ocean Eye, the land of extreme Yin.
Apart from the three elders of the Medicine Palace, the supreme elders of the five ancient sects, and the top ten evil experts, no one could truly cross the Frozen Sea and enter the Profound Ice Ocean. They could only enter it through some means passed down from the immemorial and ancient times. portals, portals, and other methods.
However, the Black Ice Ocean was simply too big. No one could explore the entire Black Ice Ocean.
As for those peak experts of the Corrupt path who had the strength to cross the Black Ice Ocean, even if they really went there, they would all keep their mouths shut about the situation of the Black Ice Ocean. No matter how others asked, they wouldn't answer. It was as if they were guarding some kind of taboo.
For thousands of years, many people had entered the Profound Ice Ocean, but the majority didn't know what was inside.
The world only knew that there was an ancient city at the bottom of the Profound Ice Ocean. It was completely frozen, and only a few special passages allowed one to enter.
Outside of riding the Fire Koi Carp, a spirit beast with great resistance to the extreme cold, there was no other way to enter the ancient city.
Over time, the Profound Ice Ocean and even the Profound Ice Well that was directly connected to the Profound Ice Ocean became a taboo. No one dared to casually enter.
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Chu Chen's spiritual sense easily sensed the presence of the Nine Marrow Sacred Ice Crystal in the well. However, there seemed to be another strange and mysterious ripple in addition to the extremely cold presence.
When Chu Chen used his spiritual sense to explore that strange fluctuation, he couldn't feel anything.
Was it an illusion?
After sensing the strange fluctuations several times in a row, Chu Chen frowned slightly.
Duanmu Qing and the others were right. This ancient well was truly strange. At least, that strange fluctuation was something that even Chu Chen's powerful spiritual sense couldn't detect.
"How is it? Have you really decided to enter this well?"
Just as Chu Chen was frowning in thought, his chest trembled. A hamster with red fur stuck its head out and glanced at Chu Chen with its bean-sized eyes.
"Mhm, I must obtain the Nine Essence Sacred Ice Crystal. I must go down."
Chu Chen nodded. Although he could sense that there seemed to be some kind of mysterious aura in the ancient well, he did not sense any life-threatening danger with his spiritual sense. Thus, he had to go down and investigate no matter what.
"By the way, aren't you said to be omniscient? Do you know what's in this ancient well? " Chu Chen suddenly thought of something and quickly pulled the little hamster out of his arms. "It's time for you to show off."
"No, my memories of this ancient well have been sealed. There's something in this ancient well that I can't come into contact with. My instincts don't allow me to know those things."
The little hamster frowned with a serious expression. "Therefore, if you go down this time, I can't follow you. I can only wait for you outside the well."
"Mhm?" Chu Chen's eyes widened. To be honest, although this dead hamster wasn't very reliable, it had always been willing to follow him regardless of whether it was the Flame Pit or the Magma Sea. It was the first time it had asked him to wait outside.
"This is the first time you've run away. Is this well that mysterious?" Chu Chen frowned.
