Underneath the City of Freezing Snow, a beautiful silhouette floated up and down. She was surrounded by heavenly light and was above all living beings.
This was a devastatingly beautiful woman who possessed the beauty of heaven and earth and the splendor of mountains and rivers. She was truly like a fairy walking on ripples, noble and inviolable.
"Not a treasure?"
Ling Xian frowned. He originally thought it would be a treasure, he didn't think it would be a beautiful woman.
"You are not wrong to call me a treasure."
The woman's lips parted. Like pearls landing on a jade plate, her voice was crisp and moving.
She stared at Ling Xian, "I am the seventh Clan Leader of the Han Clan. I have merged with the land of the Freezing Snow and turned into a special treasure."
"Seventh Clan Leader?"
Ling Xian frowned, "You are a living person?"
"More accurately, I am a living dead."
"As long as the land is not destroyed, I will not die. But I cannot leave this place. I will be sealed inside the ice and lose my consciousness."
"Only when a descendant uses her blood to melt the ice can I awaken."
The woman softly sighed. Staring at the lifeless Han Li, her eyes flashed with softness and sadness.
"I see."
Ling Xian's frown relaxed. Using simple words, he explained the situation of the City of Freezing Snow.
"Demons from another world …"
The woman was a little startled. Staring at the lifeless Han Li, she said, "No wonder she risked her life to wake me up."
Then, she looked at Ling Xian, "You are her lover?"
"Senior, you have misunderstood. We are merely friends."
Ling Xian shook his head and stared at the woman, "If you cannot die, then she can too."
"What a smart one."
The woman revealed a smile, "She can replace me and become the protector of the City of Freezing Snow."
"Replace you?"
Ling Xian frowned, "Doesn't that mean you will disappear?"
"Instead of being a living dead, I would rather disappear."
The woman exclaimed, "Not being able to leave and not being conscious is no different than dying."
Hearing this, Ling Xian was silent.
Just like the woman said, this was no different than death. The only difference was that there was more hope.
"That is the rule of the City of Freezing Snow. Every time there is a disaster, a direct descendant will sacrifice herself to wake the protector."
"After that, he will become the new guardian."
The woman sighed softly and said, "What a pitiful little fellow. There are many beautiful things in the world that you haven't tasted, yet you are about to become a living dead person."
"It's better than dying completely. At least there is hope." Ling Xian grinned. He didn't want Han Li to die.
Although this was only an illusion, it was a reference to reality. In other words, everything was real.
"More accurately, it's a slim chance."
"The Frigid Snow Earth Vein is special. It's easy to fuse with it, but not easy to separate from it."
"Even if I can escape, it will be difficult to reconstruct my physical body."
The woman sighed. She looked at the cold Han Li and said, "I can't see any hope of resurrection, and I don't want to live anymore. I hope that she has a chance to resurrect."
As she spoke, she pointed a finger at the space between Han Li's eyebrows. Boundless divine power surged out like a surging sea, rolling into the sky.
It was far too terrifying. Even someone as strong as Ling Xian found it hard to breathe.
"So this is the power of the Frigid Snow Earth Vein … It's equivalent to the power of a level-nine cultivator!"
Ling Xian's pupils dilated. The World Burning Immortal Bone and the Flame of Purity combined to defend against the coldness.
Then, he revealed a faint smile.
Inside this Hidden Territory, the level-nine cultivators were undefeatable beings. Killing all the demons was a piece of cake.
HOMMM!
The coldness froze the heaven and earth. The power of the Frigid Snow Earth Vein continued to pour into Han Li's body, causing her physical body to slowly disappear.
The woman's silhouette also began to fade.
After some time, her silhouette completely disappeared. All that was left behind was a complex sigh that echoed throughout the area.
"I am finally free. I hope you are the last one."
As the sound of his voice faded, Han Li opened his eyes. Instantly, the entire space around him froze.
Though it was merely a silhouette, it was vivid and lifelike. Like a fairy descending to the mortal world, like a God awakening, beautiful and powerful.
"I … I didn't die?" Han Li was in a daze and didn't understand.
"It's not much different from death. It's just that there's a slim chance."
Ling Xian softly sighed and recounted what happened from beginning to end.
Han Li was first shocked, then sad, and finally, she revealed a bright smile.
"It doesn't matter if I'm dead or if there's a slim chance. At the very least, my consciousness is still here."
"More importantly, I now have the power to kill the Extraterrestrial Demons with my own hands and avenge my father and all the people who died."
Feeling the power, Han Li's eyes shone with coldness and killer's intent.
"That's right. This is the silver lining in the misfortune."
Ling Xian exclaimed. If his prediction was correct, after killing all the demons, he will be able to leave the Hidden Territory and become an inner disciple.
"Let's go. I can't wait any longer."
Han Li's eyes were cold. She wanted to leave this place, but she couldn't move.
A mysterious force was restraining her. She couldn't even take a step, let alone break out of the ground.
"You are now inside the Frigid Snow Earth Vein. You cannot leave."
Ling Xian sighed. To lose one's freedom and even consciousness, to any living being, is extremely cruel.
"I forgot."
Han Li shook her head and smiled bitterly, "If I can't leave, how can I kill the demons?"
"Just lure them here. Leave it to me." Ling Xian softly grinned.
"If you are alone, it will be too dangerous. After all, there are five commanders." Han Li was worried.
"It's okay. I am not going to fight them." Ling Xian brandished his hand.
If they fight, he will die after one round. After all, the golden-eyed man was extremely capable.
However, if he lured them here, he was confident he would be safe.
"That's the only way."
Han Li stared at Ling Xian, "Be careful."
"Don't worry, they cannot kill me."
Ling Xian softly grinned. In a flash, he broke out of the ground.
Then, he unleashed his Qi without restraint. Like the awakening of the God of Warrior, the demons who stayed behind were enraged but didn't dare to say anything.
The five commanders haven't returned yet. With their capabilities, they can't even touch one of Ling Xian's fingers.
"It's about time. Very soon, I will send you on your way."
Ling Xian mumbled to himself. Then, he closed his eyes and waited in silence.
After some time, the five silhouettes appeared. They were all furious and full of killer's intent.
The red-haired man, in particular, was glaring at Ling Xian with deadly intent. He wanted to skin Ling Xian alive.
"We meet again. Like I said, the next time we meet, I will take your head."
Ling Xian softly grinned. Like an immortal, he was extraordinary and out of this world.
"You are seeking death!"
The red-haired man shouted angrily. His flame turned into a cauldron that could burn the heavens and refine demons.
"I won't be the one to die." Ling Xian's smile did not diminish.
Han Li was equivalent to a ninth level powerhouse. Killing these five commanders was as easy as flipping his hand. Even the golden-eyed man would find it hard to defend against one attack.
In other words, they will die for sure.
"If I am not wrong, you are the one who has been watching us from the shadows." The golden-eyed man said emotionlessly. Like a God, he peered down at everyone.
"That's right. Your spiritual sense sure is sharp. You almost found me."
Ling Xian had a smile on his face. He didn't mean to mock them. But in the eyes of these people, he was mocking them.
