Chapter 321: Ice Coffin (Rewards and Extra Updates)
Fei Yuan chased after him, and when he smelled the sweet scent of a female lingering in the air, his face suddenly darkened. "I was wondering why you came here in such a hurry. Turns out you wanted to steal my people! Where's Luo'er? Hand him over to me!"
Cang Gan stared at the air in front of him, his voice cold and hard, "She's not here with me. She ran away."
"Why can't I sense her presence? You must have hidden her away. You look like a dullard on weekdays, but you're playing tricks on me in secret?"
"...I really didn't do anything to her. She's not in my hands now."
"If I don't beat you until you surrender, you won't want to hand me over!"
“…”
…
Sang Luo came to an ice cave filled with cold air, feeling completely bewildered. Where had she randomly teleported herself to?
The air is cold and damp, with little oxygen, like being underground.
This chill, piercing her spine, was extremely unusual. Even though Sang Luo was covered in a layer of fire aura, she was still shivering from the cold, unable to resist. She already had a slight cold, and she sneezed violently several times, rubbing her hands together. "Let's run!"
Just as Sang Luo was about to teleport away, Xiao Zhixin ran out and sniffed the air wildly, "Mom, there's something here!"
After saying that, he ran towards the depths of the ice cave.
Sang Luo couldn't stop this kid!
She is an ice beast and is not afraid of the cold, but look at her mother!
Sang Luo looked around and used her mental power to explore the surroundings. This ice cave was indeed unusual. There were many special magnets embedded inside. These magnets could block the internal induction, and her mental power could not see anything.
Curiosity eventually prevailed.
Sang Luo surrounded his body with several layers of fire spiritual power and caught up with his daughter.
The underground ice cave was incredibly large, estimated to be larger than the entire Ice Palace. Sang Luo speculated that he should still be near the Ice Palace, perhaps even underground.
The ice cave is empty, with nothing but ice. Not even a colored stone can be seen. At a glance, the ice and snow are crystal clear. The cave is vast and more than ten feet high. An endless sense of desolation sweeps over people's hearts. It is quite shocking to look at.
"Mom wants to test you. What is the use of this ice stone?" Sang Luo walked to an ice wall and released Xiao Qi from the space.
Xiao Qi looks small and is her eldest child. In the first few years, he didn't learn anything following his father Quan Jin. Later, after taking him to live with her, she and Si Ye started to push him forward.
Xiao Qi is also very smart. He can learn almost anything quickly. He especially likes to read ancient books about rare treasures.
It spotted the flaw immediately and waggled its tail cheerfully. "Mother, this ice cave wasn't formed naturally, but was crafted by someone. This kind of ice is called Xuanyun Ice, and it's extremely rare. My son thinks it's at least a thousand years old. Anyone who can gather this much Xuanyun Ice must be an extraordinary person. It's most likely the work of Uncle Qilin."
"Mother's guess is right, but why did he put so much Xuanyun Ice into the cave? What use is this Xuanyun Ice?"
"Mysterious Ice is hard, like gold and stone. Some weapon refiners have always sought out this kind of ice to refine special magical tools. However, this ice also has a very special use: it can preserve the body from decay for thousands of years."
Sang Luo's heart trembled. Cang Gan shouldn't have any special hobbies, right? Hiding a dead body in an ice cave... She suddenly thought of some not-so-good plot...
Xiao Zhixin's voice came from deep in front, echoing loudly.
"Mom, come here quickly, there are some good things here!"
Sang Luo could hardly see where she was. "Walk slowly, don't get lost."
Sang Luo carried Xiao Qi over and reached the deepest part of the ice cave.
There is a three-meter-long ice stone hanging in the air, with eight ice chains embedded in the wall at the upper and lower corners to ensure that the ice stone will not fall.
Sang Luo looked at it for a long time, and the more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong. Why did the shape of this piece of ice stone look so much like... a coffin?
Shit! There's no way there's a dead body here!
Sang Luo began to back down in his heart.
Little Zhixin ran over and said, "Mom, I smell the scent of the Soul-Restoring Pearl. There must be a fragment of the Soul-Restoring Pearl hidden here!"
Sang Luo was excited. God knows what it meant to a person with obsessive collecting disorder to be just missing the last piece.
His excitement was quickly extinguished by cold water, and he shook his head and said, "After all, this is not our territory. It's not good to take things without permission."
Little Zhixin stepped on each other with his front paws, reluctant to leave. "Mother, if I can get the complete Soul-Restoring Pearl, my soul law will be able to be improved and complete, and I will be able to use the power of the Soul-Restoring Pearl."
Sang Luo was surprised to hear this, but still a little hesitant.
Xiao Zhixin rubbed his paws and patiently coaxed, "Uncle Canggan wants to use the Soul-Restoring Pearl to do something that can't be accomplished with just the Soul-Restoring Pearl fragments. He must want to combine the three Soul-Restoring Pearls into one even more than mother does. Sooner or later, we will all get this Soul-Restoring Pearl fragment. When the time comes, I can not only help mother, but also help Uncle Canggan achieve his wish."
Sang Luo thought her daughter's words made sense, and then she thought of Cang Gan, who looked honest, but she didn't expect him to be so despicable and even tried to force himself on her! She became even more furious, "Mom will go with you to find her!"
"Yeah, mommy is the best!"
Xiao Zhixin was very excited.
Sang Luo released the other cubs as well to help with the search.
I searched everywhere but couldn't find it.
Sang Luo fixed his eyes on the coffin in the sky.
She didn't really want to look there, but her instinct told her that the fragment of the Resurrection Pearl that Xiao Zhixin wanted was most likely in that ice coffin.
Sang Luo thought about the whole story and could probably guess the reason. The high priest of the Beast God had passed away for many years and his body was buried in the north, guarded by the Qilin clan. This kind of Xuanyun Ice can keep the body of the deceased from decaying. With so many precious ice stones, the person who used them must be of high status.
The person lying in this ice coffin...
It’s most likely the legendary High Priest of the Beast God!
Sang Luo took a deep breath, brought the children back into the space, and flew to the coffin.
This time, Xiao Zhixin didn't need to say anything, she could sense the strong aura of the Resurrection Pearl, and it was indeed in this coffin!
She looked down at the ice coffin in front of her.
The coffin was made entirely of ten-thousand-year-old black ice, and a thick layer of mist and frost floated on the surface, making it impossible to see what was inside.
Sang Luo placed his fingers on the coffin lid, thought for a moment, and then withdrew his hand.
If there really was a deceased person lying inside, she would be committing a great disrespect.
Sang Luo clasped his hands together and silently repeated several times, "I'm sorry for the inconvenience, young man! I'll just take a look!"
Her warm palms gently brushed the ice surface, and the frost melted away the moment it touched her skin, revealing the man inside the coffin. He lay quietly in the coffin, as if he had fallen into a long sleep.
When Sang Luo saw the man's appearance clearly, she almost forgot to breathe.
