Seeing Ning Cheng accept the jade talisman, the middle-aged Confucian of the Rainbow Fallen Sword Sect smiled again at the two young men and women standing in the middle of the room and said, “This time, our Ning Cheng of the Rainbow Fallen Sword Sect has the lowest cultivation level, you two are both at the first level of the Yuan Soul, so you should take care of Senior Brother Ning Cheng.”
When the young male cultivator heard the middle-aged Confucian say this, he hurriedly bowed and said, “Please don’t worry senior Bei, Xin Hai will definitely take care of senior brother Ning.”
The middle-aged beauty stared at the standing young male cultivator and said, “You’re still panting even though you said you were fat, the Fallen Rainbow Sword Sect has a deep heritage, don’t look at you as a Yuan-Soul cultivator, you might not be as good as this Ning Cheng after entering.”
Only then did Ning Cheng realize that these two young men and women standing in the middle were Xin Hai and Bu Mei who were going with him this time. Xin Hai responded politely to the words of the middle-aged Confucian of the Fallen Rainbow Sword Sect, while that Bu Mei of the Zhangyi Dao Sect remained standing still as if he had not heard them.
……
Senior Brother Ning, your cultivation level is a little too low, so follow behind me for now. Once anything goes wrong, you immediately crush the jade talisman in your hand.” After Xin Hai came out, he really took care of Ning Cheng.
“Many thanks, Senior Brother Xin.” Ning Cheng thanked him and then asked, “Surely there is nothing wrong with Senior Hua Ding coming in?”
Xin Hai said gruffly, “This is where the problem lies, not only did Senior Huading come in without anything happening, but we followed Senior Huading and even we were fine. There is another oddity, in the place where that cave appeared, even the divine sense of the Hua Ding cultivator could not come into contact with it.”
“Then isn’t this place a formation?” Ning Cheng asked.
Xin Hai nodded, “I heard from those senior Tripod Transformation practitioners that this place is a formation. It’s just that there are rank nine Formation Grandmasters who can’t even tell what kind of formation this place is, and we can’t tell even more.”
Speaking of this, Xin Hai turned his words around, “It’s really remarkable that you, a Xuan Dan cultivator, dare to come here. But you still have to listen to me, although the sect rewards are good, you have to act according to your ability.”
Ning Cheng already knew somewhat about Xin Hai’s nature, and he knew that Xin Hai’s words were not mocking him, but were well-intentioned.
“I will try to be careful, besides, Senior Brother Xin will also take care of me some, I know what to do.” Ning Cheng said casually.
Sure enough Xin Hai grinned and stretched out his chubby palm to pat Ning Cheng’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry Senior Brother Ning, even if something happens, we can still teleport out by crushing the jade talisman in time. Although I will take care of you some, you yourself must also pay attention at all times. Senior Sister Bu of the Zhangyi Dao Sect is also very powerful in cultivation, she will also look after you a little.”
The young female cultivator who had not spoken since Ning Cheng had seen the other party until now frowned a little and remained silent.
“Senior Brother Ning, pay attention, after this yellow line is the danger area. The disciples who came in to look for the cave have all disappeared behind here.” Xin Hai pointed to a thick yellow line at his feet and reminded Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng stepped over the yellow line and looked at the place that was still desolate and incomparable because of the war potholes, and said with some doubt, “There’s nothing here, is there? There are neither mountains, forests, gullies nor dangerous peaks and rivers, how could they have disappeared here ……”
Ning Cheng’s words suddenly stopped as he noticed that Xin Hai and Bu Mei beside him had very abruptly disappeared, without any signs or fluctuations at all.
Not waiting for Ning Cheng’s scalp to tingle, he felt a lightness all over his body, and the next moment he also abruptly appeared in the middle of an incomparably dark and gloomy hall. Not to mention crushing the jade talisman, he did not even have a chance to react. At this moment, Ning Cheng crushed the jade talisman again, but it did not work halfway.
There was not a single person around the great hall, except for the gloomy coldness, which was still gloomy and cold.
Ning Cheng’s attention immediately focused as he sensed that the place was no longer under his control.
This must still be a teleportation formation, it was just that this one was of such a high grade that even a Grade 9 Formation Grandmaster could not see it. It looked like Xin Hai and Bu Mei had been teleported to a different place from him.
Even though Ning Cheng’s attention and divine sense were constantly observing the surroundings, he did not see any danger after staying in this great hall for quite some time. The only feeling that was different was that there was a very strange aura power surrounding this great hall. If Ning Cheng had not come into contact with wish power, he would definitely not be able to know what kind of power it was.
However, Ning Cheng had been exposed to wish power, and he could feel that it was a power similar to wish power, but definitely not wish power.
At the same time, Ning Cheng also discovered that there was no exit from this hall, so he carefully entered the depths of the hall. When he reached the deepest part of the hall, he saw a faint glow coming out, a glow that was incomparably comfortable for his divine sense to touch. Clearly this was a spiritual light, Ning Cheng’s heart moved and he immediately quickened his pace.
……
At the same time, in a snow-white ice house that was like a fairy tale world, there were over a hundred cultivators frozen in ice, and these cultivators ranged from Xuan Liquid to Yuan Soul.
This snow-white ice house, however, had an odd name, called the House of Cause and Effect.
All the cultivators in the House of Cause and Effect had one thing in common, they were all frozen in a crystal clear pillar of ice. And all the cultivators had sacrificed their magic treasures to shield their entire bodies, while being unable to move, as they fought off the terrifying icy cold in the icicle.
Suddenly, one of the cultivators inside the icicle trembled slightly, and the shine on his defensive magic treasure dimmed. A ‘click’ followed, and a faint shadow floated out from this cultivator and landed into the large tripod at the top of this igloo. The next moment, this cultivator frozen by the icicle melted at a speed visible to the naked eye and slowly disappeared.
The rest of the cultivators in the icicle in the igloo were silent when they saw this scene, and there was nothing they could do except to use their magic treasures more desperately to block the icy cold of the icicle.
Such a scene would keep happening every day in this igloo. Disciples from several large sects, as well as many casual cultivators doing missions, would be sent to this igloo after landing here, and be frozen at the same time. Then you are left to resist these icy chills, and as long as you cannot resist, your soul will float out of your body and enter the big pot in the igloo.
Once the soul disappears, the flesh body will disintegrate and nirvate at a speed visible to the naked eye. After the nirvana of the flesh body, all the magic treasures and things will disappear into thin air.
Moreover, being frozen in this igloo has nothing to do with cultivation level at all. The higher your cultivation level is, the stronger the icicles that freeze you.
Being frozen in this kind of igloo, only a cultivator with a good defensive magic treasure, as well as a strong divine sense and true essence, could resist a little longer. But that is only to resist a little longer, at the end of the day, it will still turn into ice slag and disappear without a trace.
It was only here that the difference between a casual cultivator and a sect disciple could be seen. Most of those who could use magic treasures to protect themselves for months without being frozen away were sect disciples, and only a few were casual practitioners. But as time passed, there were fewer and fewer icicles in this igloo, at most there were more than a thousand icicles, now there were only a hundred or so.
Three more figures landed in three different corners, and all the people in the igloo knew that three more icicles were about to be added to this igloo.
Don’t look at the people who came in and couldn’t see the igloo, but the people in the igloo could see clearly the people who came in. They themselves came in this way, and then as soon as they casually took any of the treasures in here, they would be transported to the igloo and then frozen by the icicles.
This great hall was as strange as the name of the igloo; if you didn’t take anything in here, you would never be transported to the igloo. In fact after entering this great hall, there had not been a single cultivator who could hold back from taking anything. And after entering this great hall, it seemed that one would only remember that this was an ancient cave and only know that they had come here to look for good things. As for how one came to be here, it all becomes blurred in the consciousness, or becomes unimportant, if one even wants to think about it at all.
“Why is Ning Cheng here too?” Liang Kexin, who was frozen in the icicle, recognized Ning Cheng as soon as she took a look at him, and then she sighed. Ning Cheng was indeed formidable, but he would soon be frozen in this ice house just like her, and then slowly wait to die.
There were definitely no more than five Xuan Liquid cultivators who could last three or four months in this ice house without falling, and she, Liang Kexin, was one of them. Only she herself knew that she was once a Yuan-Soul realm cultivator. Her reserve was far more than that of an ordinary Xuan Liquid cultivator, and even so, she knew that she was only a day or two away from falling at most.
……
“Lower grade true weapon?” Xin Hai was a little surprised when he was first transported down, but when he saw a Lower Grade True Weapon, he didn’t hesitate to reach out and grab it. At this moment, he had completely forgotten how he had come in.
The frozen cultivators in the igloo shook their heads one after another, this guy’s resistance was so poor that he couldn’t resist doing it with a single lower grade true weapon. But thinking of themselves, this shaking of their heads immediately turned into a deep sigh. Wasn’t it the same when they had seen a treasure they liked, then reached out and grabbed it, and then eventuated in being transported to the causal house?
The moment Xin Hai grabbed the lower grade true weapon, a power that he simply could not resist swept over him, and he immediately knew that it was not good, and in that instant he remembered what was going on. Only when he didn’t wait to react, the next moment he likewise appeared in the middle of the igloo and was frozen by an ice pillar.
Looking at the hundred or so ice pillars inside the igloo, each of which had a cultivator trapped inside, Xin Hai completely understood in this instant. No wonder so many cultivators had disappeared, it turned out that these cultivators were all the same as him, because they wanted to take the treasures here and were then frozen in this igloo.
Just as his thoughts turned to this, another light flashed in the igloo and another pillar was added to the room out of thin air. Looking at Bu Mei who was inside the pillar, Xin Hai shook his head, knowing that that Senior Brother Ning would be coming over soon.
A burst of icy cold came over him, seemingly wanting to tear his flesh apart and then take away his soul. Xin Hai hurriedly sacrificed his own defensive magic treasure to shield his surrounding body, and only then did he feel slightly better. Immediately afterwards, he saw Ning Cheng, who had also walked into the luxurious hall that he had walked into before.
