With each step the person carrying the coffin took, a layer of ice, ten feet in circumference, would appear on the ground.

As the ice layer appeared, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.

Lan Hua knew that it was formed by the condensation of moisture in the air at extremely cold temperatures, which showed how low the body temperature of the person carrying the coffin was.

"Damn, who is this guy? He's so awesome!" Lan Hua exclaimed in surprise.

Countless purplish-red vines rushed towards the person carrying the coffin, but the latter casually waved his hand, and a strangely cold Yuan energy swept around, freezing the rushing vines.

"What a nuisance!" the man carrying the coffin sneered.

After the vines were frozen into icicles, the person carrying the coffin waved his hand again, and countless ice shards flew out.

When the ice shards struck the vines, they shattered into pieces like an avalanche, creating a spectacular sight in mid-air.

Lan Hua was astonished by the methods of the person carrying the coffin.

"This person's cultivation is truly formidable!"

The area within a ten-zhang radius of the person carrying the coffin was completely frozen, making it impossible for the vines to get close.

However, the vines did not give up, abandoning Lan Hua one after another, seemingly wanting to transfer all their anger onto the person carrying the coffin.

Hundreds of green and red vines were divided into ten groups, intertwined, and formed a huge vine that would take eight people to encircle, all of which struck the person carrying the coffin.

Those enormous vines, far exceeding expectations, descended from the sky, whistling through the air, each strike enough to kill even a peak-level Dan Shen realm expert.

"Um?"

The person carrying the coffin showed a solemn expression for the first time.

With a slight lift of the ice coffin on his back, the man waved his hands, unleashing a massive burst of icy energy that sealed the oncoming giant vines.

"Damn, this works?"

Lan Hua was taken aback. To freeze a vine that would take eight people to encircle in an instant required not only extremely high cultivation but also a very high level of skill.

Ordinary ice-based spells simply cannot achieve this.

Just when the man carrying the coffin thought he had succeeded, the ice that had frozen the vines began to crack and fissure.

boom!

Several loud bangs rang out, and ten enormous vines in mid-air pressed down again.

Before it even touched the head of the person carrying the coffin, the gust of wind generated by the approaching object was already making his clothes flutter loudly.

"What a hassle!"

The person carrying the coffin suddenly split into three figures, and two figures appeared out of thin air.

"Hmm? The incarnation technique of the Refining Spirit Realm!"

A cultivator at the Refining Spirit Realm can initially utilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to create clones.

The higher one's cultivation level, the more clones one can create, and the stronger those clones become.

The suddenly appearing clone was not carrying the ice coffin and was easy to identify. It was almost identical to the real body, but the aura it emitted was a bit weaker.

The man carrying the coffin and his two clones attacked together, unleashing powerful icy energy that shot into the sky, transforming into three astonishing ice blades.

"Execute him!"

The ice blades, some twenty feet long, danced wildly, severing all the giant vines that were rushing towards them.

As soon as the vine broke, red and green liquids fell, but they were frozen by the extreme cold, turning into countless ice shards that landed around the person carrying the coffin.

The man carrying the coffin didn't take it seriously, and just sneered, "If you keep bothering me, I'll destroy your lair!"

Suddenly, two thick vines burst forth from the ground, breaking through the ice and wrapping around the legs of the person carrying the coffin.

"Hmph, still unwilling to stop?"

At this moment, the person carrying the coffin suddenly felt a sharp pain in his leg, as he had been pricked by the barbs on the vine.

"Ghost-faced Vine, you're asking for death!"

The man carrying the coffin's face instantly turned cold, and a terrifying chill emanated from his legs, freezing the red and green vines.

Then, he raised his palm as a knife and unleashed two ice blades, each ten feet long, sharp and piercing.

boom!

The two ice blades struck the frozen vines, producing two crisp sounds as they snapped in two.

"Huh? How could this be?" the man carrying the coffin exclaimed in surprise.

"No, these two vines are your true forms, and their armor is extremely tough."

The person carrying the coffin had just realized what was happening when he suddenly felt weak all over, followed by numbness throughout his body, and his limbs became unresponsive.

"You damn Ghost-Faced Vine, I was careless!"

After the man carrying the coffin finished speaking, unwilling to die like this, he quickly activated his internal energy to freeze the toxins in his body and prevent them from spreading further.

At the same time, a surge of icy energy enveloped him, freezing him and preventing the Ghost-Faced Vine from taking advantage.

Lan Hua saw that the person carrying the coffin had used a self-sealing technique, and knew that he was in trouble.

"So be it, saving one person is the same as saving five people."

Today, I, your humble servant, will treat you like a living Buddha to the very end!

After speaking, Lan Hua unleashed the Eight Directions Wind and Rain technique, sending hundreds of invisible red lotus arrows sweeping across the red and green vines.

The Crimson Lotus Fire was the nemesis of the Ghost-Faced Vine, repelling all the enormous vines except for the two vines wrapped around the legs of the person carrying the coffin.

The Crimson Lotus Flame Arrow shattered instantly upon striking the two vines, leaving them completely unharmed.

"You devilish vine, you're forcing me to use my ultimate move, aren't you!"

Yue Que drew his bow fully, and two invisible arrows appeared, radiating a powerful armor-piercing aura.

"Behold my Crimson Lotus Arrow, Piercing Armor Without Form!"

After the two arrows were fired, Lan Hua's face turned pale and her expression became somewhat listless.

The Crimson Lotus Piercing Arrow, indestructible and piercing through the red and green vines, ignited the Crimson Lotus Fire, which quickly burned on the vines.

"ah..."

Two different screams echoed in the space, making Lan Hua's scalp tingle.

Once the main body was burned, the red and green vines immediately released the person carrying the coffin, quickly burrowed underground, and returned to the original spot.

Seeing this, Lan Hua did not chase after them, but instead flew to the side of the person carrying the coffin.

He grabbed the latter and flew towards the distant exit.

Seeing that someone was helping him, the person carrying the coffin wisely removed the icy power from his body.

With its main body injured, the Red and Green Ghost Vine could no longer afford to attack others, and Lan Hua was able to proceed unimpeded.

In just a short while, they rushed out of the cave and arrived at a safe place.

At this moment, the successors of the three religions were sitting cross-legged, trying their best to expel the poison they had been afflicted with, while Nalan Ruode stood guard beside them.

Upon seeing Lan Hua appear, Nalan Ruode helped up the person carrying the coffin.

"Brother Lan, what's going on? How did you manage to save him too?"

Lan Hua was a little weak and said with a wry smile, "There's nothing I can do. What can I do? I'm just too kind-hearted."

This person has likely been poisoned by the Ghost-Faced Vine. Brother Nalan, do you have a way to cure it?

"Ghost-faced Vine?"

Nalan Ruode exclaimed in surprise, "No wonder it's so troublesome. Don't worry, Brother Lan, although the poison of the Ghost Face Vine can paralyze the body, its toxicity is only temporary."

It will resolve itself in an hour; it's far better than the snake venom taught by the three religions!

Lan Hua's eyes lit up, and she laughed, "Snake venom, what a coincidence! I have the antidote for snake venom!"

After saying that, Lan Hua reached out and three red fruits appeared in her palm.

"I found this in the giant snake's lair, and it's useful!"

Nalan Ruode nodded and gave the three red fruits to the successors of the three religions.

After the three received help from the red fruit, the poison gradually dissipated, and their complexions improved.

Lan Hua glanced at Nalan Ruode and asked in surprise, "How come you weren't poisoned?"
