As he approached quickly, the reflection became brighter and brighter. It was definitely not an illusion. At the bottom of the Tianchi Lake in front of him, there began to be more broken sand. Each of them was like a crystal clear pearl, reflecting a dreamy blue light. Yun Che picked up a few of them at random. The cold air contained in them made him have no doubt that it could freeze thousands of miles of sea in an instant.
Following these jade-like broken sands, the unusually bright blue light was getting closer and closer. Yun Che increased his speed a bit and soon saw clearly that it was a piece of ice.
ice! ?
How could there be a piece of ice in the water of Tianchi Lake, which has never frozen even in such horrific cold?
From a distance, the ice was in a regular diamond shape, less than three feet wide and less than ten feet long. It was located right in the middle of the Tianchi cold vein. Although it was floating in the water, it was so quiet that it seemed to be embedded in this icy world.
Looking at the piece of ice, Yun Che slowly approached, but his eyes became dull.
Because there was a figure in the ice...
A dreamy figure of a girl.
The girl's arms were around her knees, her head buried between them, her whole body curled up into a ball. She was naked, her legs were white and slender, her feet were small and delicate like lotus flowers, and her exposed skin was still crystal clear and smooth even through the ice, as if it was condensed with the light of the stars and the moon.
Her long hair flowed down, the hair was as white as ice, with a hint of light blue... She looked very similar to the seductive woman who called herself "Mu Xuanyin" that day. Every strand of hair seemed to be covered with the cold light of ice and snow.
The icy jade-like hair covered her face and also concealed the most forbidden part of a girl's body.
Yun Che stared blankly. What he saw before him was like a beautiful, dreamlike painting. Although he could not see the girl’s face, no one would doubt that only a beauty that could make ice and snow pale in comparison could match such a beautiful, dreamlike body.
Who is this girl?
Why was it sealed in ice, at the bottom of the Tianchi Lake?
How long had she been sealed here? A hundred years? A thousand years? Ten thousand years? A hundred thousand years... or even longer?
Is he from the Ice Phoenix Divine Sect?
The only people who can get close to the Heavenly Netherfrost Lake are members of the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect... Could it be that this girl was a very important figure of a certain generation of the Divine Ice Phoenix Sect, and was sealed in ice and sunk into the lake in order to preserve her body forever after her death?
No! With the climate of the Snow Song Realm and the icy profound power of the divine way, there was no need to sink the body into the Heavenly Dark Frost Pond to preserve it forever—not to mention that the Heavenly Dark Frost Pond would never be allowed to be defiled.
Moreover, the Minghantian Lake is not an ordinary pool at all. The consequence of sinking into the Minghantian Lake is not just gradually sinking to the bottom of the pool, but also being destroyed into nothingness by the extremely terrifying cold air.
But this piece of ice, and the girl in the ice... are intact and are not affected by the cold here at all.
Yun Che tried to get closer, and came to the front of Han Bing. The icy and beautiful body so close to him made him unconsciously look away, not daring to use his eyes to blaspheme. He slowly stretched out his hand and touched the Han Bing.
bite……
Where the finger touched the ice, a blue light flashed and then disappeared. Other than that, there was no other strange feeling.
Nor did he sense any breath of life or soul.
Who is she... and why is she here?
There was a strong curiosity and doubt in his heart, but he had no way to find the answer at the bottom of the cold and silent Tianchi Lake.
Yun Che did not forget his current situation. He took a few steps back and finally looked away completely... He had already experienced the cold and domineering temperament of the Snow Song Realm King. If he wanted to prove himself to her, diving to a depth of a thousand feet would be enough, but he was too eager to find a way to increase his profound strength extremely quickly. In addition, he was curious about the bottom of the Tianchi Lake, so he went straight to the bottom of the lake. This was already a big risk. If he stayed too long, with the terrible temperament of the Snow Song Realm King, the consequences would be disastrous.
Yun Che took a deep breath and was about to leave, but suddenly, a young girl’s voice rang out from the depths of his soul.
"Who are you?"
"Why...can you come here?"
This ethereal voice was like a clear spring flowing through his heart. Yun Che’s body suddenly stiffened, and then he turned around like lightning, staring at the girl who was sealed in the ice: “You… are talking to me?”
He had just explored it and found that there was no trace of life or soul in the ice... But, besides himself, she was the only one here. And what she mentioned in her voice was clearly "here".
The girl did not answer. The water in the surrounding Tianchi suddenly began to ripple slightly, and a divine consciousness as gentle as water enveloped Yun Che.
Yun Che did not resist... because this spiritual consciousness was not hostile at all, and more importantly, although this spiritual consciousness was gentle, it was as vast as the boundless ocean, and he could not resist it at all.
At the bottom of Tianchi Lake, in the ice, she actually had consciousness and could release such terrifying spiritual awareness.
Who is she...?
In a moment, the huge divine consciousness left Yun Che’s body, and the girl’s voice resounded in his mind and soul again: “So… you actually inherited the power of the Heretic God. No wonder you can come here.”
Yun Che raised his head abruptly: “Could it be… that you are the Ice Phoenix Divine?”
Just by detecting his own breath, he could recognize that he inherited the power of the evil god. Previously, only the souls of the Phoenix, Dragon God, Golden Crow and others who had the memories of the ancient true gods could do this!
The girl did not respond to his words, but remained silent for a long time. Then, she suddenly asked softly: "Can I... take a look at your memory?"
Although the divine spirits that Yun Che had encountered before had different personalities, they all carried the arrogance of gods. However, the one in front of him, who was most likely an Ice Phoenix spirit, not only spoke in a voice as gentle as water to a human who had intruded so rudely, but also politely and sincerely sought his opinion.
The Golden Crow Spirit at that time violently and forcibly read his memory.
The immense spiritual consciousness just now proved that the girl in front of him was most likely the Ice Phoenix Soul. Her soul power was much stronger than that of the Golden Crow Soul. If she wanted to forcibly read his memory, it would be completely easy. He would have no ability to resist...but her tone was gentle and inquiring.
“Okay.” Having one’s memory read by someone would undoubtedly expose all of one’s secrets nakedly. It was a taboo that no one could accept, but Yun Che could not refuse.
The water rippled, and the vast divine consciousness enveloped Yun Che again, gently entering the depths of his soul. Yun Che's consciousness suddenly went blank.
After an unknown amount of time, Yun Che gradually regained consciousness, and that spiritual consciousness had disappeared without a trace.
“Blue Pole Star…Phoenix…Dragon God…Golden Crow…Sky Poison Pearl…Mirror of Samsara…Moon Slaughter Demon Lord…” The girl whispered softly, “In your short life, so many things have happened to you.”
“You… haven’t answered me yet. Are you the Ice Phoenix Spirit?” Yun Che pressed on.
"Yes and no."
“Huh?” Yun Che was stunned by the girl’s answer.
“I am different from the Phoenix Spirit, Dragon God Spirit, and Golden Crow Spirit that you have seen. They are soul fragments that remain in the world in the hope of passing on their power after their annihilation. I have also separated a soul fragment, but it dissipated a long time ago after bestowing the last of its power and bloodline on the Snow Song Realm.”
"So... who are you?"
"The me you see before you is the owner of the soul fragment."
The girl’s voice was still incredibly gentle. Yun Che was stunned for a moment, and then his face suddenly changed. He said in shock: “You… You are the Ice Phoenix’s true body!!”
She was not a soul fragment, but the owner of the fragment... that is, the true body of the god! It was the Ice Phoenix's true body!
The True God Who Has Not Died!
The Moon-Slaying Devil Lord was a real demon who had not yet died... He was slaughtered by the Heaven-Smiting Sword. And here, there was actually a real god who had not yet died! !
“You don’t have to be surprised,” the young girl knew what Yun Che was thinking. “Although I still exist, I am far from being comparable to the Moon Slaughter Devil Lord you met. He still has the possibility of recovery, but I only retain the tiniest bit of my life source and soul source. Not only will I never be able to recover, but I will never be able to leave this cold vein. Even my true body cannot be restored, so I can only maintain my human form from now on.”
“It’s almost the same as total extinction.”
“So… you’ve been here for more than a million years?” The shock in Yun Che’s heart was still extremely strong and difficult to calm down.
Even though she only had the smallest trace of life source and soul left, she was still a true god who had not completely perished... a true god! She was a completely different concept from the residual spirit of a god he had encountered before! A completely different existence!
"Yes... Suddenly, it has been a million years since the disaster. During these million years, I have wanted to disappear more than once, to end this humble existence and eternal loneliness. However, I also want to see with my own eyes whether that day will really come..."
“That day? Which day?” Yun Che’s face was full of questions.
"For millions of years, I didn't wait for that day, but I waited for you. This can be considered as the arrangement of fate... No, this is the guidance of the evil god. He abandoned the name of the God of Creation and was called the most evil and eccentric god... But few people know that he is the greatest god."
The girl seemed to be telling Yun Che something, but also seemed to be talking to herself. Yun Che was confused.
“Yun Che,” the girl called his name softly, “The power of the Heretic God in your body comes from a drop of the Heretic God’s immortal blood. It is different from the other divine powers you have obtained. Your Phoenix, Dragon God, and Golden Crow divine powers all come from a small amount of divine blood, but the Heretic God’s immortal blood has given birth to a complete Heretic God’s profound veins in your body. It is also the source of the Heretic God’s complete power. Its significance is completely different from your other divine powers.”
Yun Che nodded. He knew this clearly. His power had always been centered around the power of the Heretic God. The reason why other divine powers could coexist and exert power beyond their limits was because of the existence of the Heretic God's Profound Veins.
"You know how difficult it was for the Heretic God to leave this drop of immortal blood... Not only did he have to completely annihilate himself, but he also had to overdraw his lifespan by at least 600,000 years. In other words, even though the Heretic God was in the state of 'eternal calamity' at that time, with his powerful divine power, he could still survive for at least 600,000 years."
"But he gave up using his divine power to survive for another 600,000 years in the Eternal Calamity. Instead, he used all his divine power and life to condense that drop of the Evil God's immortal blood. He did this in order to leave behind the source of his own power... At the end of his life, he was worried about that day coming, and he sacrificed his life to leave behind the only hope for future generations. Perhaps, only he deserves to be called the greatest god."
"...I don't understand what you're saying. What exactly do you mean by 'that day'? And why did the evil god forcibly leave behind the source of his power intact?"
Since they were talking about the evil god, it must be related to him. But he really couldn't understand what the girl said at all.
