Chapter 5861
“Such potent cold poison.”
David’s heart trembled, and he quickly held his breath, focusing on internal energy.
The little fire qilin also seemed somewhat unaccustomed to this environment. Being a fire-type divine beast, its strength was somewhat suppressed in such extreme cold.
However, it still held its head high, closely following David, golden flames burning fiercely on its body, dispelling the surrounding chill.
The depression wasn’t large; the distance from the edge to the central icy pool was only a few hundred feet.
David proceeded cautiously, his divine sense fully activated, vigilantly scanning his surroundings.
The pool water drew closer, and the thousand-year-old Ice Soul Blood Lotus became increasingly clear. Its
nine lotus leaves were crystal clear, like rubies carved from gemstones, with blood seemingly flowing within their veins.
The central bud had already slightly opened a crack.
He could vaguely see crimson petals inside, and a strange fragrance mingled with the stench of blood emanated from them, invigorating the senses yet also possessing a sinister allure.
“It’s about to open!”
David thought with delight, quickening his pace.
However, just a hundred feet from the icy pool—
“Roar—!!!”
A deafening roar suddenly erupted from an ice cave on the mountainside of the tallest ice peak beside him!
The roar was like the awakening of an ancient beast, carrying terrifying sonic shockwaves that caused the entire depression’s ice surface to tremble violently, and the ice beneath David’s feet cracked open with countless fissures!
Immediately afterward, a vast, ocean-like, and hell-like terrifying pressure surged forth from the ice cave as if it were tangible, instantly enveloping the entire depression!
Under this pressure, David felt as if he had become a small boat in a raging storm, on the verge of being torn apart at any moment!
He grunted, hurriedly activating his Chaos Immortal Power to form a layer of hazy gray light around his body, barely managing to stand firm.
The little fire qilin was even more severely pressured, its limbs slightly bent, letting out a low growl, its golden flames burning wildly around it as it resisted the overwhelming pressure.
“Celestial Immortal Realm… Peak Ninth Rank!”
Da
“Rumble—!”
The icy mist at the entrance of the ice cave churned violently, and then, an enormous figure slowly emerged from the cave.
It was… a dragon?
No, not a real dragon.
Its head resembled a dragon, but it only had a single horn, which was ice-blue and crystal clear.
Its body resembled a giant python, but it was covered with palm-sized ice-blue scales, each one like the most perfect sapphire, reflecting a cold luster. It
had no claws under its belly, but a pair of thin, almost transparent ice-blue fleshy wings grew on both sides of its body.
Its body was over a hundred feet long and as thick as a house, hovering in mid-air like a small mountain!
Its lantern-sized, ice-blue, vertical pupils coldly and mercilessly surveyed David and the little fire qilin below, its eyes filled with scrutiny, disdain, and a hint of anger at being offended. The ancient mythical
beast—the Ice Dragon!
Although not a pure-blooded true dragon, it is still a powerful being among dragon-type mythical beasts, possessing a trace of true dragon bloodline and wielding extreme ice power, making it terrifyingly strong!
“Humans…and a little fire qilin?”
the Ice Dragon spoke, its voice like ice frost rubbing together, cold and piercing. “For tens of thousands of years, this is the first time anyone has dared to trespass into my territory. Didn’t the little girl tell you the rules?” The “
little girl” it referred to was clearly the Palace Master of the Northern Underworld.
Given its tens of thousands of years of lifespan, calling the Palace Master a “little girl” was not unusual.
Despite the oppressive aura, David clasped his hands and said, “Junior David greets Senior. My intrusion was unavoidable. I need this Thousand-Year Ice Soul Blood Lotus to save someone. I beg Senior’s leniency; I am willing to exchange it for treasures of equal value.”
“Save someone?”
A hint of mockery flashed in the Ice Dragon’s enormous vertical pupils. “What do the lives of ants have to do with me?”
“This Blood Lotus has coexisted with me for ten thousand years and is already my property. Considering you were let in by a little girl, get out immediately, and I might spare your life.”
Its attitude was exactly the same as the two divine generals from yesterday—arrogant and indifferent.
David’s heart sank, knowing the chances of negotiation were slim, but he still tried, “Senior, the Blood Lotus is of paramount importance to me. I am willing to exchange it for something.”
The Ice Dragon remained unmoved: “Hmph? What a joke! What could a lowly human like you possibly have? Get out of my way, or… I wouldn’t mind tasting the flavors of a human cultivator and a Qilin divine beast.”
It licked its lips with its enormous tongue, its eyes flashing with ferocity .
The little fire Qilin sensed the hostility, roared, and its golden flames surged, baring its teeth at the Ice Dragon.
“It seems there’s no room for negotiation.”
David slowly drew his Dragon-Slaying Sword, his eyes sharpening. “In that case, I have no choice but to offend you.”
“Oh? You want to fight?”
The Ice Dragon seemed to have heard something amusing, its massive body swaying slightly, creating a gust of wind. “A mere first-grade Heavenly Immortal, plus a seventh-grade little Qilin, dares to challenge me? Your courage is commendable, but… utterly foolish!”
Before it finished speaking, its enormous tail lashed out!
“Boom—!”
A streak of ice-blue light, over ten zhang in diameter and entirely composed of extreme ice, crashed down on David and the little fire qilin like a collapsing pillar!
Wherever the light passed, the space froze, cracking into fine black fissures. The terrifying chill instantly solidified the ice below, forming a layer several feet thick!
The power of this attack had already surpassed the realm of the Celestial Immortal, reaching the level of a True Immortal!
“Dodge!”
David shouted, and he and the little fire qilin simultaneously dodged to the sides.
“Boom!!!”
The ice-blue light crashed onto the ice, causing the earth to tremble violently!
A giant crater over fifty zhang in diameter appeared, its ice crystals shattered, its depth unfathomable. Terrifying chill surged from the crater, freezing the surrounding hundred zhang into a world of ice crystals!
Although David avoided the direct impact, he was still struck by the aftershocks. His protective chaotic immortal power violently trembled, and his blood churned. The little fire qilin fared even worse; invaded by the chill, its golden flames dimmed slightly.
