Chapter 173 Reaching a Safe Place



What she possesses is the life force that can make people all over the world flock to it!

If it is not someone you trust, someone you have chosen in this life, you would never transfer your life force to them.

Because if it were leaked, she would face endless pursuit...

But the other party's answer is zero...

It was Zero, who even on her deathbed, was thinking of her leaving quickly...

How could she...?

How can we just leave him here like this...

Besides, wasn't it because I was worried about him that I came here in the first place...?

A continuous stream of life force flowed from Ziyou's lips into Ling's mouth, quickly circulating throughout his meridians and organs, constantly awakening his body's various functions.

After all of Ling's meridians had been circulated, Zi You finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Withdrawing her life force, she used her remaining spiritual energy to maintain her body temperature, grabbed Zero's arm, and carried him on her back.

His body was so large that it had reached the top of the ice track. Even though he had lost consciousness, he was still supported by the power of life, but his body was still trembling slightly involuntarily.

Zi You carried him on her back, moving forward inch by inch with difficulty. She continuously released her spiritual energy, not thinking about anything else, including the consequences of exhausting her spiritual energy...

After an unknown amount of time, Zi You carried Ling forward little by little, a faint smile on her lips beneath her pale face, as she spoke softly.

"You know what? The first time I saw you, I thought you were like those humans who captured us, with ulterior motives."

"Later, I inexplicably formed a blood pact with you and became your servant..."

"It's kind of funny, actually, that I, who hate humans the most, am living with humans..."

"I don't know if you can hear me, and I don't know what I'm saying. I just want to say... after spending so much time together, you're different."

"Very different, completely different from the humans I know..."

"Hmm... You are kinder and more sincere than them, and most importantly, you have a brave heart."

"I feel... I seem to be a bit..."

Suddenly, Zi You's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. In front of her in the tunnel, dozens of hibernating snakes lay coiled and motionless.

Thinking that she and Zero hadn't eaten for a long time, and Zero was now extremely lacking in energy, she smiled and said to Zero, who was still oblivious to her presence on her back:

"Our stomachs are fed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly twisted his left wrist, and purple spiritual energy instantly shot out, hitting the hibernating snake right on its vital spot!

Before the snakes could even awaken from their dormant state, they were wiped out in one fell swoop by Zi You, who was like a hungry tiger!

Zi You pouted, looked at the still unconscious Ling, and muttered:

"I don't know if it'll be enough for you, this snake is too small..."

Zi You disdainfully picked through the pile of snakes, choosing only the largest ones to carry around her neck until she could barely carry them anymore, at which point she continued crawling forward.

Time passed slowly, and Zi You carried Ling on her back... and the snake.

The weight on her body was almost three times heavier than her combined, and she gradually felt more and more strained. At first, she could rely on her spiritual power to support the weight, but now that her spiritual power was used up, she could only rely on her physical strength.

With each step, the cold, damp ice felt like a sharp blade scraping against my arms.

Her face grew paler and paler, her whole body was soaked, and the sweat froze and then melted repeatedly...

His lips turned bluish and trembled involuntarily. His breathing gradually weakened, and only his two arms moved forward mechanically, as if it were instinct.

"zero……"

"Wake up..."

She was almost at her breaking point...

The exhaled air was more than the inhaled air, and the white mist that came out almost froze into ice crystals on the increasingly cold and damp icy path.

Just when she was about to despair, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared directly in front of her!

The light was so bright that she squinted and tried to raise her hand to shield her eyes, but her arm fell limply because she was too weak to move.

The light before her eyes was the driving force that propelled her forward.

Zi You slowly tugged at the corners of her mouth and weakly murmured:

"Zero...did you see? We're almost out..."

Zi You gazed at the enormous ice chamber before her.

This place alone must be over a hundred feet square. The surrounding temperature was unbelievably cold, with layers of ice three feet deep on all sides, reflecting a dazzling, crystalline light. However, this crystalline light lacked the clean, clear appearance of ice and snow; instead, it had an eerie feel to it.

In the center of the ice chamber, there were two ice coffins. Zi You, carrying Ling on her back, moved her legs with difficulty and mechanically walked to the huge ice door and pushed it open.

She didn't open the ice coffin. The most important thing at that moment wasn't to see who was inside, but to leave the ice chamber that was about to freeze her to death and find a warm place where Zero could regain her warmth.

As the ice gate opened, a wave of normal heat rushed out, causing Zi You to shiver involuntarily. Amidst the alternation of hot and cold, a magnificent palace appeared before Zi You's eyes.

Unlike the outside, this palace was not cold at all. The ice chamber was completely sealed off, and not a trace of coldness could be seen from it.

Before your eyes is a magnificent hall, with a floor paved with blue-and-white flagstones and a golden roof with carved beams. In the center stands a huge medicine cauldron, made of some unknown material, yet it gleams with a metallic luster.

Inside the hall, eight golden pillars carved with dragons stand tall on both sides, and two rows of huge luminous pearls are inlaid on the walls, illuminating the entire hall as if it were daytime.

Directly in front stands an ancient and imposing blue stone gate, its gold-paved gate winding and adorned with a white jade ring with a coiled dragon carved on it.
