It slammed into the incredibly thick layer of ice before sinking.
The cold wind howled, and the world was a vast expanse of desolation.
The sudden drop in temperature caught Shen Qian somewhat off guard.
He temporarily stopped his attack, and in a flash, he appeared in the sky.
In the icy and snowy landscape, countless snowflakes, as fine as goose feathers, drifted down.
Directly below lies a thick layer of ice stretching for thousands of miles; judging from its shape, it must have once been a lake or sea.
Chen Qian's gaze was instantly drawn to a scene a kilometer away.
There, thousands of zombie soldiers stood on the ice, and nearby high in the sky, three silver-armored celestial generals who looked like scavengers stood on the clouds, as if they were "overseeing" the work.
The thousands of zombie soldiers were wielding their long weapons, constantly striking the thick ice beneath their feet.
They must have been working here for some time now, as a thick layer of ice and snow has been chipped away at their feet. However, the ice is so thick that they still haven't managed to dig through it.
The truly awe-inspiring sight before the sinking was right beneath their feet.
Beneath that layer of ice, a gigantic serpentine creature, its length unknown and spanning thousands of meters, lay frozen motionless.
They climbed a little higher and finally got a clear view of the creature.
Immediately, Shen Qian gasped, the feeling of stepping into mythology growing stronger.
Its head resembles a camel's, its antlers a deer's, its eyes a rabbit's, its ears a cow's, its neck a snake's, its belly a clam's, its scales a carp's, its claws an eagle's, and its paws a tiger's...
"dragon!"
This is none other than the dragon, one of the most representative mythical creatures in Chinese totems!
Although I've seen some special effects animations, seeing such a huge and magnificent creature in real life with the naked eye is a completely different experience.
This dragon, in some unknown state, is frozen in the lake, its eyes wide open. Its lifelike expression makes one wonder if it will break through the ice and soar into the heavens at any moment!
He didn't understand why the heavenly soldiers would dig up this suspected fallen dragon corpse, but Shen Qian vaguely thought of a certain possibility.
Before he could take a closer look, there was another whooshing sound behind him, and Jiang Chengye, wielding his halberd, attacked once again.
Boom! Boom!
The two began to fight each other in this icy world.
Snowflakes swirled wildly in the sky, splashing everywhere.
As he moved forward, he saw a second identical scene.
Countless heavenly soldiers continued to pound on the thick ice, and buried beneath the ice was a creature several times larger than the divine dragon seen before the sinking.
With a single slash, Chen Qian repelled Jiang Chengye, rising to an extremely high position, finally getting a full view of its appearance.
This is a cow-shaped creature nearly 10,000 meters long, almost half the height of a balance scale.
It has only one foot, no horns on its head, and streaks of light occasionally flow across its bluish-green skin, the radiance of which is so intense that one dares not look directly at it.
However, Mingming did not sense any signs of life on it before sinking.
It was only faint, yet one could hear a roaring sound, like the sound of wind and rain.
"Kui Niu!"
Shen Qian quickly remembered this mythical beast that appeared in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".
At this moment, Jiang Chengye attacked again relentlessly, and Shen Qian had no choice but to continue fighting.
The battlefield between the two constantly shifted across this icy and snowy land, and Shen Qian witnessed countless scenes that shook his soul.
This frozen land, stretching for countless miles, is the burial place of more than just dragons and Kui Niu!
He saw a large bird resembling a phoenix, a deer-horse resembling a qilin, and all sorts of enormous mythical beasts whose names he couldn't name at the time.
The only thing they had in common was that these mythical beasts were completely devoid of life, but their appearance within the ice alone was enough to inspire awe.
Finally, before sinking, he saw a mountain peak standing at the edge of the ice and snow.
The mountain was not very large, only a thousand feet high, and not even as big as the Kui Niu.
But this iceberg gave the biggest shock before the sinking.
Because within it, four "people" were frozen.
There were four naked men, about three meters tall, with their eyes closed, as if they had been dead for some time.
Around them, seven-colored armor and various weapons of different shapes floated.
Each person has a striking tattoo on their upper body or back.
These four tattoos correspond to the four mythical beasts in Chinese legend.
These are the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.
Before sinking, I felt a slight sense of suffocation.
Yes, just staring at those four men made him feel like he couldn't breathe.
This sense of pressure arises only when the difference in levels of understanding reaches a certain point.
On the iceberg, countless heavenly soldiers were also clinging to it, constantly waving their weapons and striking the iceberg.
The iceberg seemed exceptionally solid; they had to strike it for a long time before they could break off any fragments.
But they never tire.
Even the most solid ice will eventually be shattered by them.
What truly made Shen Qian's pupils shrink was the seven-colored armor floating beside the four men. Judging from the style, it was almost identical to the one Jiang Chengye had worn at the beginning.
He seemed to understand why these heavenly soldiers had gathered here.
They want to revive all these mythical beasts that have been buried by ice and snow for who knows how long.
Perhaps just like themselves...
While Shen Qian was lost in thought, he finally paid the price for his distraction.
"Pfft!" The halberd passed through the gap in the longsword and struck his right shoulder.
