"Hiss... Is it so cold in here? Qingxue, do you have any skills to keep warm?"
Walking in this seemingly endless snow and ice, Lin Tianming asked Ye Qingxue beside him.
"Why don't you speak, Qingxue?"
Not getting a response, Lin Tianming looked to his side in confusion.
It would have been better if he hadn't looked, but as soon as Lin Tianming looked, he found that Ye Qingxue, who had entered the secret realm of ice and snow with him, was missing.
His heart skipped a beat, Lin Tianming took a deep breath, and was frozen all over by the cold air here.
Not daring to take another deep breath, Lin Tianming quickly looked around trying to find Ye Qingxue, but there was nothing to be seen.
Moreover, the entrance to the secret realm of ice and snow that he and Ye Qingxue had entered also disappeared, and everything around them was a world of ice and snow with no visible boundaries.
Lin Tianming had never encountered a situation where he could not find the exit before entering the Lost Land and the Mechanical Secret Realm.
"Is this the Secret Realm of Ice and Snow? It seems I can only rely on myself for now. Qingxue has ice-attributed abilities, so she will be like a fish in water here and won't encounter any danger."
Muttering to himself, Lin Tianming also emanated violent thunder power from his body.
Furious Thunder Armor! With the Thunder Armor on his body, Lin Tianming tried to use the Thunder Armor's defensive power to resist the cold air here.
The bone-chilling cold in the secret realm of ice and snow ignored his furious thunder armor, penetrated into his body, and still froze him cold all over.
If this continues, it won't be long before he is frozen into an ice sculpture and becomes a scenic spot in this secret realm of ice and snow.
Lin Tianming didn't want to turn into an ice sculpture for later visitors to see, so he once again used the new fire-attribute skills he learned from Wang Yanran.
Phoenix Flame Shield!
The blazing Phoenix flames transformed into a Phoenix Flame Shield that protected his entire body, instantly blocking Lin Tianming from the biting cold wind and ice and snow.
Moreover, the Phoenix Flame Shield also provided Lin Tianming with a warm current, warming Lin Tianming's body.
"It seems that in this secret land of ice and snow, Senior Sister Yanran's fire attribute skills seem to be more useful!"
It became much warmer, and Lin Tianming also praised Wang Yanran for the wonderful use of the Phoenix Flame Shield.
No longer worried about the harsh frost and snow weather here, Lin Tianming continued to move forward.
It didn't take long for Lin Tianming to arrive at an ice bridge.
There was a bottomless abyss of ice and snow all around, and there was only an ice bridge for Lin Tianming to continue moving forward.
In front of the ice bridge, there is a stone tablet frozen by solid ice, on which is written a long-lost language.
Relying on the theoretical knowledge he had learned in the Awakener Pre-school Training Academy, Lin Tianming was still able to recognize the words above.
Lin Tianming murmured the name of the bridge: "Minghan Bridge..."
What he cared about most was the word "Ming".
Does it refer to the underworld?
While thinking, Lin Tianming also looked at the Minghan Bridge that spanned the abyss.
There are still three living people on the Minghan Bridge.
However, the situation of the three living people was not optimistic, as their feet were all frozen in place.
Lin Tianming remembered that Ye Qingxue said that on the first day the Ice and Snow Secret Realm was opened, many people would come in to look for opportunities.
It seems that these three people should be the other people who are exploring the mystery besides him and Ye Qingxue.
“Damn it! I have ice-attribute abilities, but it’s still very difficult for me to walk on this Dark Frost Bridge. I didn’t even walk halfway down the bridge before my feet were frozen!”
"It's over! The terrifying icy force is still spreading upwards. If it continues like this, my entire body will be frozen here!"
"Think of a solution quickly! We are here to seek opportunities. I don't want to die here like this!"
Under Lin Tianming's gaze, the ice that froze the three people was also spreading upwards at a visible speed.
In just a few seconds, the ice spreading from the bottom up reached the waists of the three men, and in a few seconds they would all be completely frozen.
Lin Tianming hesitated for a moment, but still stepped onto the Minghan Bridge.
As soon as he stepped onto the Netherfrost Bridge, Lin Tianming felt an extremely strong icy force madly attacking his Phoenix Flame Divine Shield, trying to freeze him in place like the three people before him.
Fortunately, the Phoenix Flame Shield is worthy of being a growth skill in the Shinto realm. At level 16, it also gives Lin Tianming extremely strong defensive capabilities, temporarily resisting the freezing of the more powerful extreme ice power of the Nether Cold Bridge.
At the same time, the three people just in front of Lin Tianming had been frozen into three human-shaped ice sculptures.
Seeing this scene, Lin Tianming continued to move forward, and soon he came to the three people.
Suddenly, the entire Minghan Bridge began to tremble violently, and the bottomless abyss of ice and snow also emitted a series of creepy wails.
Then, the cold air around was no longer simply the power of extreme ice, but also revealed waves of gloomy aura, as if surrounded by resentment.
Shadows of dead souls emitting a cold and dark aura gradually appeared in front of Lin Tianming and attacked him.
His pupils shrank slightly, and Lin Tianming immediately trampled on Minghan Bridge.
Thunder tramples!
Under Lin Tianming's thunderous trampling, the entire Minghan Bridge shook even more violently.
But the ghost souls that attacked him from all directions were also electrocuted and scared to death.
Just when he thought it was over, more ghosts emitting the cold and deathly aura of the underworld appeared around him and launched a new wave of attacks on Lin Tianming.
Lin Tianming now understood the meaning of the Netherworld Bridge. In addition to the extreme icy power that could freeze everything, there were also ghosts emitting the aura of the underworld that would claim his life.
Lin Tianming's intuition told him that these cold and deathly souls would probably never be killed, and if he stayed on the bridge forever he would eventually be exhausted to death.
For his own safety, Lin Tianming decided to cross the bridge quickly.
Thunder roars violently!
As the thunder's speed increased, Lin Tianming also moved forward at an even faster speed.
Lin Tianming escaped the disaster temporarily without a direct confrontation with those newly born souls.
But the three people who were frozen in place were in a miserable state.
The ghosts that exuded the cold and deadly aura pounced on the ice sculptures of the three of them and devoured them brutally.
In just a moment, the three people were eaten up by the ghosts, including their ice sculptures.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming continued to move forward.
However, as Lin Tianming continued to move forward, the extreme icy power that seemed to be able to freeze everything became stronger and stronger.
Even though Lin Tianming's Phoenix Flame Shield had a very strong defense, cracks still appeared little by little.
What’s even worse is that a number of new dead souls appeared in front of Lin Tianming, blocking his way.
On the left, right, above, below, and behind him when he came, these ghosts blocked him from all directions without any blind spots.
Each of them exhaled cold air and showed greedy looks towards Lin Tianming, a living person.
Accompanied by the creepy howls of the ghosts, all the ghosts pounced towards Lin Tianming.
Thunder tramples!
Psychic Storm!
Lin Tianming also used his two attack skills in succession. With the blessing of the previous violent thunder, the terrifying power of thunder spread out from Lin Tianming's center to the surrounding areas.
The tornado formed by the power of spiritual ascension also protected Lin Tianming in the eye of the storm, attacking all the ghosts rushing towards him.
Under the power of Lin Tianming's two high-attack skills, all the dead souls from all directions were scared to death.
Just as Lin Tianming was about to take this opportunity to move forward, more ghosts appeared around him at a faster speed.
"As long as they are on this bridge, these ghosts will probably be endless!"
The extreme icy power that seemed to be able to freeze everything was becoming stronger and stronger.
Along with the sound of the Phoenix Flame Shield shattering, Lin Tianming also lost the protection of his strongest defensive skill.
In an instant, the extreme ice force that continued to accumulate power during this period froze Lin Tianming into an ice sculpture.
The thing that Lin Tianming least wanted to see happened. Those newly born souls pounced on him one by one.
Soon, Lin Tianming, who had turned into an ice sculpture, was surrounded by dense swarms of souls seeking his life.
They gnawed at the ice sculpture ferociously, trying to eat Lin Tianming along with the ice.
