When Lu Chen woke up, he found himself lying on a bed.
There were five or six stoves beside the bed, but there were still several blankets covering his body.
There were a few people sitting around him with anxious expressions.
Lu Yi, Great Ancestor of Northern Snow, Ling Jun, Qing Ling, and Gu Fei.
Lu Chen sat up, but he still felt a chill.
Seeing Lu Chen get up, the others hurriedly surrounded him.
"Brother Du Kuang, you're awake? How do you feel now?! "Ling Jun looked at Lu Chen with concern.
Lu Yi wanted to hold Lu Chen's hand, but when her palm touched it, her hand was almost frostbitten!
It was only a touch, but it was already so cold. Thinking of her brother in such a state, Lu Yi's eyes turned red. "Brother, you, how are you?" Lu Yi's eyes became wet again.
Lu Chen smiled at his sister, "Why are you crying? I'm not dead, it's just … a little cold …"
The Great Grandmother frowned, "Before Lone Star died, he released the Extreme Cold Poison. Originally, all of us would have suffered a calamity, but fortunately, little friend Lone Kuang blocked the Cold Explosion. However, this also meant that you alone absorbed all the Cold Poison …"
"The poison explosion released all the cold poison in Gu Xing's body at once. Fortunately, little friend Du Kuang's body was strong, otherwise, the cold poison would have broken out on the spot and he would have been powerless."
Lu Chen frowned, "Could it be that Gu Xing was like this before?"
Ling Jun shook his head, "Gu Xing released the cold poison slowly, and the intensity was not even one ten-thousandth of what little friend Du Kuang is experiencing now … I didn't expect that guy to poison others before he died."
Lu Chen sighed. He had already tried before, but the biggest problem now was that he couldn't use spirit energy!
Without the protection of spirit energy, no matter how strong his body was, he was just a sturdy sandbag.
"Big brother, I, I'm sorry …" Gu Fei lowered his head and said in a choked voice, "I wanted you to come to Ice Plateau Star to play, but I caused you to be poisoned! I, I … "
Looking at Gu Fei's self-blame, Lu Chen smiled, "What about you, this has nothing to do with you."
Lu Chen took a deep breath and sat up. Lu Yi hurriedly covered him with a blanket.
"Everyone, you don't have to blame yourselves. Even though I've been poisoned by the cold poison, since Gu Xing can cure it, it's not like I can't."
"Senior Ling Jun. Previously, you all dropped Guxing into the Extreme Frost Ice Cavern. He should have controlled the frost poison there, right?" Lu Chen looked at Ling Jun.
Ling Jun seemed to have something he couldn't say, his brows tightly knitted together, "Brother Du Kuang, it was precisely because we wanted to execute him that we sent him into the ice cave. At that time, his cold poison was less than one ten-thousandth of yours, so he almost froze to death when he entered the ice cave. With your current condition, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter the ice cave."
"That's right, Big Brother. In the past, Guxing was also afraid of the cold, but not as extreme as you. Previously, when you were unconscious, you kept complaining that it was cold. If not for the fact that I was afraid that you would dehydrate, I would have added at least ten more stoves here. If you go to the ice cave, it's too dangerous. "Gu Fei also said.
Lu Chen's brows were tightly knitted together. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Right now, I can't use my spirit energy. If I don't get rid of the cold poison, I'll be a cripple."
"Rather than being a cripple, I'd rather take a gamble."
"I don't believe that if Guxing can survive, I can't!"
Right now, the Extreme Frost Ice Cavern was the only way for Lu Chen to get rid of the cold poison. He had to take a gamble!
… … …
Two days later, Lu Chen wrapped himself in three sets of ferret coats and followed the North Snow Family's team to the depths of the North Snow Valley.
Even though Lu Chen had wrapped himself up like a furball, he was still shivering from the cold.
This wasn't caused by the low temperature outside, but more importantly, the cold inside his body.
Halfway through, Lu Chen took off one of his coats.
Gu Fei hurried over, "Big Brother, why did you take off your coat?"
Lu Chen's face was already purple from the cold, "We're about to enter the ice cave. I can't wear so much, right? I need to get used to it first."
Gu Fei wanted to say something, but felt that his big brother was right.
As they approached the Extreme Frost Ice Cavern, Lu Chen had already taken off all three coats.
In front of them, there was a huge deep well, which was the Extreme Frost Ice Cavern.
The team also stopped here.
"Little friend Lu Chen, are, are you sure you want to go down?" Great Grandmother looked at Lu Chen with worry.
Lu Chen nodded, "I have to go!"
Lu Yi had been following Lu Chen all this time, "Big Brother, I'll go with you!"
Lu Chen smiled, "Silly girl, you don't have the cold poison. By the way, I've already agreed to your marriage with Gu Fei. "
Lu Yi's eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of ice. She choked and said, "Big Brother, why are you saying this. If, if you don't come back, I won't marry!"
Lu Chen couldn't argue with his sister, so he could only nod. He turned around and walked to the edge of the deep well by himself.
Ling Jun walked to Lu Chen's side, "This is where the big families punish those who have committed the most heinous crimes. Therefore, there is an ice platform built around it. There are also wooden paddles on the side to stir the ice. There are also people who will break the ice and stir the water regularly to prevent the water from freezing."
Lu Chen took a deep breath, "Senior Ling Jun, if I don't come back, I'll have to ask senior to worry about Lu Yi."
"Brother Du Kuang …" Ling Jun's eyes were slightly red, "Whether you come back or not, the North Xue Family will definitely not mistreat Yi 'er. If Gu Fei dares to betray her, I'll be the first to break his legs!"
Lu Chen finally relaxed and looked into the deep well.
There was already a thin layer of ice on the surface of the water.
Ling Jun immediately had people use wooden paddles to break open the ice.
A cold wind blew, and Lu Chen couldn't help but shiver. It was really cold … If he didn't have the cold poison, he wouldn't have jumped into the icy water.
The more he thought about it, the more hesitant he became. Lu Chen didn't think about anything and directly jumped into the ice!
"Brother Du Kuang!"
"Brother!"
Someone called him from behind, but Lu Chen had already jumped into the ice cave.
The temperature of the lake water in the ice cave was extremely low. A bone-piercing chill hit him, and Lu Chen felt that he was going to freeze to death in this place.
After only one or two seconds, Lu Chen already felt that his hands and feet were stiff. He couldn't paddle at all, and his body couldn't help but sink.
Damn it, my body is already frozen. The temperature here is too low!
Lu Chen's consciousness began to blur.
Using his last bit of consciousness, Lu Chen called out the Seed Originator!
The little furball also needed to breathe underwater. Without the help of the Water Avoidance Pearl, it might not be able to hold on for long. However, the Seed Originator was different. It was an amalgamation of spiritual energy and didn't need to breathe!
After the Seed Originator appeared, it immediately knew that its master was in an extremely dangerous situation. However, it also knew that its master couldn't go up now and had to go deeper into the ice cave.
A ball of soft spiritual energy turned into a bubble and wrapped around Lu Chen.
Under the bubble, Lu Chen was finally able to breathe, and the surrounding extremely cold lake water was also isolated from him.
However, the cold poison in his body had been completely activated in this ice cave, and he was still in a very dangerous situation.
Seed Originator, go down!
The Seed Originator immediately understood Lu Chen's meaning and led the bubble all the way to the bottom of the ice cave!
It was unknown how deep this ice cave was. After a few hours, the Seed Originator was still diving.
Lu Chen's body had already turned purple from the cold. He curled up into a ball and lost consciousness!
Seeing that its master was in danger, the Seed Originator released its spiritual energy and frantically dived down!
It was now its master's only hope to survive!
