When they entered the ice layer, the power of the snow storm above could no longer penetrate. The ice layer was silent, and most of it was frozen.
Some of the ice cones were more than thirty meters long. Each of them was sparkling and translucent, but they emitted a sharp cold light, as if they could pierce through anything.
Some of the frozen rocks looked very smooth, like large gems embedded in the ice layer.
The ice layer was formed by the snow storm. It was frozen all year round, but there were also giant trees, vines, and all kinds of spiritual creatures. The most surprising thing about these creatures was that they were still able to adapt to the frozen world and were still tenacious.
"It's, it's the Crimson Firmament Continent's Celestial Sealing Sect!"
"It's another righteous faction that came to train. Don't provoke them. These righteous sects are united. If you offend them, you will offend the other factions in the Snow Wind Continent!"
A few cultivators suddenly flew out from the depths of the ice layer. When they saw the Celestial Sealing Sect's disciples coming, they didn't want to cause trouble.
It turned out that there were still many cultivators.
They were cultivating in the outer ice layer, digging ice caves, and setting up formations. They were either in twos or threes, or in groups of more than ten.
Most of the Celestial Sealing Sect's disciples used the Jade Sky Cold Mysterious Technique. Although it was a technique mainly cultivated by women, most of the men had mastered it.
With such a powerful divine ability to form a defense, they could resist part of the cold Qi. They were more adapted to the cold Qi of the ice layer than other rogue cultivators.
After traveling for a few days, they gradually entered the depths of the ice layer.
At this moment, a few Yang Soul disciples who were scouting ahead flew over.
"Senior Martial Brother, we heard that there is a spirit beast called the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon ahead. It is hunting human cultivators in the surroundings!"
"Many cultivators plan to capture the Sky Snow Flying Raccoons and sell them to those big factions. Spirit beasts are very precious in the eyes of those big factions. They can be nurtured into sect guarding spirit beasts!"
In front of Su Fang, a few disciples reported in surprise.
"A Sky Snow Flying Raccoon spirit beast?"
Su Fang was also surprised, but he nodded. "Back when I was training on the Flying Immortal Island, I just happened to encounter a Hundred Spirit Ape. I didn't expect to encounter another spirit beast this time. Alright, you guys go scout again and find out where the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon is. We will work together to suppress it and bring it back to the sect. This time, everyone will return to the sect."
"Yes!"
A few disciples turned around and left...
Xiao Chen sent out his thoughts to inform all the disciples of the Heavenly Snow Flying Raccoons. The main purpose was to let them make preparations to suppress the Spirit Beasts.
Most of the disciples had never seen a spirit beast before, and the Hundred-Spirits Ape had been sealed away in the House of Immortal Sealing. Therefore, it was only natural that it had been sealed away in the depths of the Daoist rite temple.
As they proceeded forward, Zhang Xuan could sense that they had entered the depths of the forbidden grounds. Demonic Qi emanated from the frigid currents in the surroundings, covering the entire area. However, due to the frigid air being too dense, ordinary disciples would not be able to sense it.
Not only was there Demonic Qi, but there were also more human cultivators. They were either training, searching for treasures, or lurking in the dark.
Regardless of whether they were demons or cultivators, there were a large number of titled immortal disciples, and none of them wanted to provoke the major powers.
After meeting Su Fang, a few disciples who were scouting ahead looked around. Sure enough, there were traces of battle. Many layers of ice were in a broken state, and they could even smell some blood.
Spirit beasts were actually a type of demon, but they were born by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth.
Group after group began to surround the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon.
Peng Peng!
With his Perfect Circle ability, he suddenly heard some abnormal and loud noises coming from the depths of the left.
He led some disciples along the curved ice layer, passing through various large and small frozen spaces. After about half an incense stick's time, they arrived at a thousand-meter deep ice space that seemed to be formed by an underground river. Waves of oppressive sounds extended from the inside.
As they got closer, everyone could see with their naked eyes more than a dozen experts. A few of them were in the Catastrophe Realm, while the rest were in the Yang Nascent Realm. They were using a few cultivator corpses as bait to hunt down a furry monster that was over ten feet tall and covered in snow-white fur.
Sky Snow Flying Raccoon
Although it had a demonic nature, the majority of the aura within a spirit beast's body was pure life aura. The Demonic Qi was not even one-tenth of that of a demon. It was completely different from a demon.
Su Fang sent a disciple to pass the message, "Get all groups to surround this place."
That disciple hurriedly flew back, leaving Su Fang and the rest to wait quietly. Looking at the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon's nimble movements, its sharp claws were incomparably hard, similar to a high-grade magic artifact. This Sky Snow Flying Raccoon's strength was around the fifth level of the Catastrophe Realm, and its speed was even more terrifying.
In addition to its abundant energy, even an eighth level Catastrophe Realm expert would find it difficult to take down this Sky Snow Flying Raccoon alone.
Su Fang secretly communicated with the Vermillion Emperor, asking about the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon.
The Vermillion Emperor was living a carefree life in the Profound Yellow Space, refining the Immortal's essence blood. He lazily replied, "This King naturally knows about the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon. This kind of spirit beast lives in ice and snow regions all year round. It can survive in any extremely cold place, and it can also live underwater. There aren't many of them, but in other small worlds, there will always be one or two."
"It can adapt to the extreme cold. Doesn't that mean that the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon can come and go as it pleases in this Forbidden Snow Forest?" Su Fang was tempted after hearing this.
"Of course. Without this ability, it can't be a spirit beast. In terms of strength, spirit beasts are generally stronger than most demon beasts. However, compared to This King, the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon is just trash. If This King was you, you would suppress it into a junior commander. You have seventy-seven junior commanders here, and none of them are special. Adding a spirit beast would be even better. You can also control spirit beasts more easily and absorb their spiritual energy. If it was a Big Goblin, you would have to spend a lot of effort to dissolve its demonic energy."
"You've reminded me."
"What This King can think of, you can naturally think of as well. Don't let your own fertile water flow into other people's fields. Rather than giving it to the Immortal Sealing Sect, you might as well keep it for yourself. In any case, this Sky Snow Flying Raccoon isn't very strong. With your strength, you can suppress it by yourself."
"Actually, I don't really want it to become my junior commander. Didn't you say that there are two treasures in this forest? Humans can't enter this forbidden land, so the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon might be able to suppress it. Then through it, wouldn't I be able to obtain the Extreme Yin Stone and the Ancient Spirit Firefly?"
"That's good!"
The Vermillion Emperor was full of praise and repeatedly nodded in agreement. It should also want to obtain some benefits.
That was especially true for the Extreme Yin Stone. That was a treasure that could aid cultivators in their cultivation. The Big Goblin was the same.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Several waves of cold Qi came from behind them. The Immortal Sealing Sect's small teams had arrived.
After Su Fang finished setting up, the small teams were led by the Yang Soul disciples to advance.
When all the small teams had surrounded the ice layer in the center, Su Fang then led Zheng Daoxin, Fu Tianshen, and the other disciples into the ice layer in front.
More than a dozen experts were unable to trap the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon. Instead, the cultivator corpses that were used as bait were completely eaten by the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon. It looked like the spiritual beast was about to escape.
"Everyone, it's better if you don't try to snatch food from the tiger's mouth. Otherwise, the sword will be merciless."
One of the 2nd Level Calamity Realm experts was a middle-aged man draped in tiger hide. With one look, one could tell that he wasn't a disciple of a faction, but a clan or a rogue cultivator.
Su Fangda's thunderous voice said, "Attack!"
Buzz! Buzz!
Suddenly, a large number of runes were thrown out from all directions. They were like countless stars.
Pa! Pa!
The runes floated above the space and then instantly shattered, turning into a layer of array. It suddenly covered the center of the space within a few hundred meters.
This was strength in numbers!
Moreover, they were all disciples of large factions. Apart from their cultivation, rogue cultivators couldn't compare.
More than a dozen experts coldly shouted, "So many disciples of the Immortal Sealing Sect!"
Whoosh!
When the three meter tall Sky Snow Flying Raccoon saw the shackles of the array, it turned into a snowy figure. Its speed was astonishing. It leaped up like a huge rabbit and raised its claws to grab the array.
"Heaven Ruler Divine Step!"
With such speed, even those Calamity Realm experts couldn't compare to it. They could only use magic treasures.
Of course, they wouldn't let the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon go. Once they suppressed the spiritual beast, they could obtain unimaginable resources and bring their clans to greater heights.
However, a figure strode over, passing by the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon and the experts.
He pointed his finger and forcefully clashed with the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon's sharp claws, preventing the spiritual beast from escaping. The man and the beast both retreated a few steps.
Zheng Daoxin and a few Yang Soul disciples instantly soared into the sky and controlled the aura of the array.
He shouted, "Leave! We are disciples of the Immortal Sealing Sect and have set up the array. If you want to become enemies with us, don't blame us for killing you!"
"Let's go. We can't afford to offend the Immortal Sealing Sect!"
"Moreover, that person can stop the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon. He's not weak. We won't be able to get any benefits!"
"Let's go!"
In the end, this group of loose cultivators had no choice but to leave in disappointment under the control of the Immortal Sealing Sect's array.
After they left, the disciples sealed the array.
After Su Fang blocked the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon's escape, he immediately ordered, "Use the Firmament Heavenly Sword Qi and cooperate with the array to attack the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon!"
"Form!"
Of the hundred-odd disciples, some appeared inside the array while some appeared outside.
They all formed hand seals and instantly condensed a tsunami of Firmament Heavenly Sword Qi around the array, attacking the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon.
Tap! Tap!
The Sky Snow Flying Raccoon was strong and ferocious.
Its sharp claws swept out, shattering a large area of Firmament Heavenly Sword Qi.
Then, it flew towards the array's barrier. Layers of Ice Sealing Qi cooperated with the array and blocked the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon from above.
The Jade Firmament Ice Profound Art combined with the array's might became even stronger.
The hundred-odd disciples worked together to form a Cold Qi defense, preventing the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon from advancing. However, its claws were indeed sturdy. Any attack could tear a large hole in the ice layer.
Su Fang released his Spiritual Sense. "Everyone, don't be anxious. We have the advantage. Don't think that this is a life and death battle, but a battle of magical powers. Our purpose here is to gain experience and use the sect's magical powers. If we work together, even if we can't suppress the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon, we can still gain experience."
Indeed, it was a timely rain. The Immortal, Undying, and Undying disciples all regained their composure. They were no longer in a hurry to attack. They formed deeper hand seals and executed more Cold Qi seals.
"We can't leave like this!"
Outside the ice layer:
In the Cold Qi cave a thousand meters away:
The ten-odd loose cultivators did not leave.
That tiger-skinned middle-aged man gritted his teeth in embarrassment. "The Righteous Dao's factions are going too far. Take a look. There are more than a hundred disciples, but none of them are in the Calamity Realm. They still dare to be impudent in front of us. They are looking down on us experts."
"That's right. What do you plan to do?"
"That Sky Snow Flying Raccoon didn't hesitate to let us kill them and use their corpses as bait. We can't just let them go. Furthermore, the price is shocking."
"The Celestial Sealing Sect's disciples know how to snatch food halfway. Why can't we do the same? We will secretly pay attention to which disciple the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon ends up in the hands of. Then, we will find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack and take away their corpses. The world is vast. I don't believe that the Celestial Sealing Sect can flip the entire Zhuo Tian Domain upside down to find us."
The few of them discussed unwillingly. They were all unwilling to let the Celestial Sealing Sect take advantage of the Spirit Beasts.
Inside the ice layer:
Within the array, deafening vibrations were emitted.
Sometimes, it was the Firmament Heavenly Sword Qi, sometimes the Heavenly Dragon Divine Claw. With the Jade Sky Cold Mysterious Art's help, the Sky Snow Flying Raccoon was unable to break out of the array.
