Chapter 980: Ice Soul Snake King

Bai Ze in the Tower of Gods nodded, "That's correct. The Xuanjian Body has a natural ability to suppress the demonic forces here. However, because this young man's strength cannot match Yan Ye, who forged the Netherworld Realm, he is completely suppressed by the Netherworld Realm."

Luo Li nodded in understanding, but she didn't say these words out loud. Now was obviously not the right time.

Besides, even if you say it out, there is no solution.

She just took out a few more pills and said, "Eat more."

Shen Fuzhou blinked, “Okay, okay.”

Luo Li watched him take it and continued, "These pills should allow you to recover almost completely, but they only last for one day. You need to take them again after one day."

“Ah…” Shen Fuzhou stared, “This is the Great Lord’s elixir, this is too luxurious.”

"Don't worry about whether it's extravagant or not," Xuan Mu said calmly, "It's better than dying here."

Thinking that he was going to die in this shabby place, Shen Fuzhou shuddered suddenly, "That's true."

Luo Li laughed, "Okay, let's take a night's rest. We'll continue our journey tomorrow to find the clearance token."

"good."

The night in the snowfield is always silent. Except for the rustling of snowflakes, the whole world is silent.

The next day.

The first ray of light in the morning penetrated the thick clouds, and the six people had packed up and were ready to move on.

Shen Fuzhou stretched his muscles and was pleasantly surprised to find that his body was full of strength. He had actually recovered to 60% of his peak state, which was almost the same as Luo Li and the others at the third level.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Luo Li, your elixir is too magical!"

"Don't be too happy too soon," Luo Li reminded, "The effect of the medicine is only one day, we have to hurry."

Following the snowy field, the group went deeper into the east.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Xie Shiyuan suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "Look over there!"

Following the direction of her finger, an ice crystal palace appeared and disappeared in the sunlight, reflecting colorful light.

"That should be the core area of ​​the third level of the Netherworld Realm," Wen Xingyan said in a deep voice, "but we haven't encountered a single magical beast along the way, and we don't have any clearance tokens."

Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "Anyway, let's go over and take a look first."

"good."

The six approached the palace cautiously.

As the distance shortened, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and even the white air exhaled condensed into ice crystals in an instant.

When they stepped onto the ice steps in front of the palace, the ice beneath their feet suddenly emitted a strange blue light.

"Be careful!" Feng Wuhen grabbed Xie Shiyuan who was in the front, and the six of them retreated instantly.

Countless ice cones suddenly shot out from the place where he had just stood. If he had been half a second slower, he would have been pierced into a sieve.

Xuan Mu's fingertips ignited flames, illuminating the surroundings, and he gasped: "The entire palace is alive."

Dense snake-like lines appeared on the ice crystal wall, and those lines moved like living things.

Shen Fuzhou gripped his sword tightly, and the sword suddenly trembled violently and uncontrollably: “My sword is giving a warning!”

Luo Li suddenly pressed her brows together as Bai Ze's urgent voice rang out in her mind: "Retreat quickly! This isn't a palace, it's the Ice Soul Serpent King's lair! It's a Grand Lord-level monster, you simply can't handle it right now!"

As if to confirm this statement, the entire "palace" collapsed, and countless ice crystals reorganized in the air.

A giant snake that was a hundred meters long was lurking in the blizzard. Its entire body was like the purest blue crystal, with a crystal horn on its forehead.

When he spit out his message, even the air condensed into ice flowers.

"Human race..." The voice of the Snake Emperor echoed directly in everyone's mind, "Trialists, accept the test of the Snake Emperor."

Under the pressure that was a hundred times more terrifying than before, Shen Fuzhou's newly recovered strength instantly collapsed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

The other five people were also forced to kneel on one knee, and the protective soul power made a shattering sound under the heavy burden.

Luo Li gritted her teeth. She couldn't confront him and had to find a way to escape!

Shen Fuzhou's condition was not good, but at this critical moment, he still had the mind to think divergently: This broken place is really targeting him...

Feng Wuhen gritted his teeth and said, "Luo Li, we can't defeat this Ice Soul Snake King at all. We have to find a way to leave!"

"Of course I know!" Luo Li knelt on one knee, her mind working frantically.

Suddenly, her eyes flickered, and the Phantom Pearl...

Oh, right, the Phantom Pearl!

Even if the Phantom Spirit Pearl only trapped the Ice Soul Snake King for a second, they still had hope of escaping!

Thinking of this, she raised her hand with difficulty and summoned the Phantom Spirit Pearl.

The Phantom Pearl was suspended in Luo Li's palm, emitting a soft colorful halo.

She bit her fingertip, and a drop of blood fell onto the bead, which suddenly shone brightly.

"Illusion—Open!"

With her clear shout, the Phantom Spirit Pearl suddenly expanded, enveloping the Ice Soul Snake King.

The Snake King's movements obviously faltered, and confusion appeared in his vertical pupils.

"Let's go!" Luo Li grabbed Shen Fuzhou, and the six of them took advantage of this split second to retreat quickly.

However, after running only a hundred meters, a deafening roar came from behind him.

The light curtain of the Phantom Spirit Orb shattered like glass, and the Ice Soul Snake Emperor's furious voice echoed across the snowy plains: "Why do you trial-takers carry the Phantom Spirit Orb?"

Xuan Mu looked back and his expression suddenly changed: "Oh no, he's catching up!"

Wherever the Snake King passed, ice and snow surged like waves at an astonishing speed.

Seeing that the distance was getting closer, Xie Shiyuan suddenly stopped and said, "You go first!"

She formed seals with her hands, and countless vines broke through the snow, weaving into an impenetrable barrier in front of the Snake King.

However, when those iron-tough vines came into contact with the cold air surrounding the Snake King, they instantly froze into ice sculptures.

"Shi Yuan!" Luo Li turned back and tried to pull her, but an icy spike grazed her arm, and blood immediately flowed out.

At the critical moment, Shen Fuzhou suddenly broke free from Luo Li's hand.

He staggered to his feet and plunged his sword into the snow: "You go, I'll cover your retreat!"

"Are you crazy?" Feng Wuhen shouted, "You can't even use your spirit skills now!"

Shen Fuzhou smiled.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a look of determination flashing in his eyes: "Who said I was going to use my soul skills?"

He was seen holding the hilt of the sword with both hands, and suddenly a dazzling golden light burst out from his body.

The light was so pure and blazing that it actually stopped the wind and snow all around.

"This is..." Luo Li's pupils suddenly shrank, "He is burning the essence of his bloodline!"

"Are you crazy?!" Feng Wuhen roared.

The original power of the Xuanjian body collided with the suppression of the Netherworld Realm, producing violent energy fluctuations.

Shen Fuzhou's seven orifices began to bleed, but he still stood in front of everyone.

The Ice Soul Snake King was obviously shocked by this sudden change.

He cautiously stopped chasing, his pupils fixed on the increasingly bright golden light, "Hey, how could it be the body of the Mysterious Sword..."

Taking advantage of this gap, Luo Li made a quick decision: "Wuhen, take them away first!"

She herself flashed to Shen Fuzhou's side and pressed her palm on his back: "Don't be stubborn, I'll help you!"
