Chapter 399: Blue Dots of Light
As time went on, everyone started to lose their breath.
At the very front of the ice cave, there are three black passages extending forward, and the monks don't need to guess to know that the direction that these three passages lead to must have unexpected gains, which may be natural treasures, or panacearies, or practice cheats.
It's not that everyone present is insatiable, but guesses based on the surrounding situation.
Not to mention anything else, the solid ice in the entire ice cave alone is slightly cool to the touch, warm but not cold, cool and pleasant, and the hardness is also above the high-grade defensive magic weapon, which is almost equivalent to the defensive ability of the low-grade magic weapon.
It's the best on ice.
The huge ice cave in front of me is full of ice comparable to the magic weapon of the lower grade, such a big hand, and has built an independent space, if there is no natural treasure here, no panacea or exercise cheats, I am afraid no one believes it at all.
It is only a hundred feet away to reach the passage, but no one dares to try it easily.
All the monks took a cautious step forward, moving forward little by little along the smooth surface of the ice, like a staggering old man, but in the meantime, someone still accidentally touched something, and then instantly turned into a block of ice.
The monks had seen the consequences of turning into ice cubes before, and no one dared to come to the rescue at this moment, for fear of bringing disaster to themselves by moving the ice cubes.
After only a dozen or so kilometers of progress, there were already seven more ice sculptures in the ice cave, of which five were decent monks and only two Blood Moon Sect disciples, which was obviously much less than that of decent monks.
It wasn't that the Blood Moon Cultists were lucky, but that in order to reduce casualties, they deliberately lined up in a row, took the lead in a loop, and slowly moved forward. Those two Blood Moon Cultists who turned into ice sculptures can only say that they are unlucky.
As for the decent monks, because they don't belong to a sect in the first place, there are even some small sects that are not in the stream. In this way, the decent monks became a scattered sand, and each sect went to work alone, so that when they moved forward, the probability of suddenly turning into ice sculptures was greatly increased.
It can be seen that under the lure of huge interests, there are still people who are willing to go ahead in order to obtain more treasures.
Ye Tian followed behind the Blood Moon Sect disciples and decent monks from a distance, and saw one after another icemen stunned in place, motionless, he slowly approached an iceman, and the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword in his hand slashed directly at him.
With a "bang", the entire ice sculpture immediately turned into ice slag and scattered all over the ground.
The Blood Moon Sect disciples and the monks of other sects who were walking in front of them were suddenly frightened, stopped in their tracks, and looked back at the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword in Ye Tian's hand and the pile of broken ice under their feet, how could they not know what Ye Tianfang had just done?
It's just that all the monks were afraid of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword in Ye Tian's hand, and they didn't dare to do anything to him, so they could only stubbornly continue to move forward.
At this moment, one of the monks who walked in front suddenly turned into an iceman.
Not only that, but at the feet of the monk who had turned into an iceman, a brilliant blue light suddenly emitted. The entire ice surface was shining and beating, and every monk who touched the blue dot would immediately turn into an ice sculpture, and in an instant, all the monks took a deep breath, and were so frightened that they stepped back again and again, staggering, and quite embarrassed.
The blue point of light seemed to be alive, and it rushed with joy towards the nearest person one after another.
Not long after, three more Blood Moon Sect disciples turned into ice sculptures, and fifteen monks from other sects fell here, but the blue light did not stop at all, and continued to rush towards the others.
Even if Ye Tian was at the rear, there were still blue points of light staring at him and attacking him.
Ye Tian's face was gloomy, holding the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword in his hand, and he couldn't feel any breath in the blue point of light, but he knew very well what he was going to do, if he couldn't figure out why the blue point of light would attack the monks, I was afraid that no one present would be able to escape.
The Heavenly Fire Divine Sword exuded a monstrous momentum and stabbed directly at one of the blue light spots.
The surging flames quickly burned on the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword, but in the blink of an eye, the blue point of light was overwhelmed by the crimson flames emitted by the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword. At the same time, the blue light that was chasing the monks of other sects and the Blood Moon Cultists gathered together and landed on the lampstands of the ice walls on both sides.
On the lampstand, a faint blue light suddenly lit up.
The huge ice cave was immediately illuminated, and it looked beautiful, but the beating light blue flames made the monks daunting, and the scene of so many tragic deaths just now was still vivid, and this seemingly inconspicuous light blue flame could not be easily provoked.
At this moment, the pattern of the ice cave is also changing, and as the ground shakes, the ice under everyone's feet begins to move. In a short time, two rows of tower-shaped lampstands made entirely of solid ice rose on the ice, and in the center of the tower-shaped lampstand, there was a square block of ice that shimmered with blue light.
The moment the monks saw this scene, their hearts could not be calmed for a long time.
I saw that in the square ice cube, you can see all kinds of heavenly treasures and elixirs stored in it, and the shape of the square ice cube looks more like a box containing the elixir, but the whole box is completely made of ice.
A Blood Moon Cultist couldn't hold it anymore and reached out to grab the square ice cube, and suddenly a cold aura spread, causing everyone in the ice cave to shiver.
Only then did the monks realize that the Blood Moon Cultist had turned into an ice sculpture, and the cold aura just now was emanating from his frozen body, and his body was still exuding cold aura.
In a few moments, the square ice cube in the center of the tower-shaped lampstand disappeared.
"What is this thing so weird?" A decent monk was shocked when he stepped on, and couldn't help but take a step back, his body accidentally touched a square block of ice, and the whole person was instantly sealed in ice.
Coincidentally, a cold breath came from this person, and the temperature inside the ice cave continued to drop, as cold as bone marrow, even Ye Tian, who was at the peak of foundation building, couldn't help but shiver, like falling into an ice cave.
Not only him, but all the monks were also shivering with cold.
Some people couldn't stand it and used the fire condensation technique to keep warm, but found that the fire condensation technique in the ice cave could not condense the flames at all. Some wealthy monks simply took out the fire talisman, but the flames produced by the fire talisman flashed away without producing any temperature at all.
In such a strange situation, all the monks immediately reacted.
Whether it is a disciple of the Blood Moon Sect or a disciple of other sects, when they practiced, they had all learned the principle of the five elements of mutual growth and mutual restraint, and neither the fire condensation technique nor the fire talisman could be used in the ice cave, so it could only explain one reason, there was no fire element in the five elements here.
Because of this, everyone was unable to use the Fire Condensation Technique and Fire Talisman.
The two people who had just touched the square ice cube in the tower-shaped lampstand were constantly exuding cold air, and the temperature inside the ice cave was also constantly decreasing, and the monks who couldn't stand it tried to attack the bodies of these two people with magic weapons.
However, no matter how they attacked, the ice on the two of them was always indestructible, and many of them even had broken magic weapons.
Seeing everyone trembling, Ye Tian felt the temperature from the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword in his hand, and without hesitation, he waved the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword in his hand and slashed at one of the frozen monks.
"Hammer!"
The sound of gold and iron rang out, but a spark flashed above the solid ice.
The onlookers looked expectantly at the place where the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword slashed, but they were disappointed to find that this strange solid ice could not even hurt the top-grade magic weapon Heavenly Fire Divine Sword.
The bitter cold continued, and some monks began to take pills to ward off one or two.
At the same time, Ye Tian felt that the temperature of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword was gradually weakening as the temperature of the ice cave decreased. If the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword loses its temperature, everyone in the ice cave will be frozen into ice sculptures and stay here forever.
Ye Tian didn't want to fall here like this.
He looked at the tower-shaped lampstand, the square ice cubes that shimmered with light blue light, and through the transparent ice layer, he could see all kinds of treasures such as heavenly and earthly treasures, elixirs, and exercise cheats.
However, the tragic fate of the two of them caused all the monks to dare not touch the square ice cube in the center of the tower-shaped lampstand. This rare opportunity had to sacrifice the lives of everyone, so that they would rather endure the cold than covet the many treasures in the square ice cubes.
Ye Tian's eyes were deep, carefully observing each square ice cube, and gradually he found that all the square ice cubes exuded a vague aura.
This breath is not a heavenly treasure, nor a panacea, nor a secret book of exercises, but the light blue flames that are dancing in the lampstands on the ice walls on both sides of the ice cave, and it is precisely these blue points of light that caused the monks to be unable to move an inch, and even to be completely frozen.
Ye Tian finally understood that the square ice cube in the center of the tower-shaped lampstand that appeared on the ice, and the heavenly and earthly treasures, elixirs, and various exercise cheats revealed in it were all illusions and great temptations.
And the place where the real treasure is stored is most likely at the end of the passage - the entrance to the three passages.
It's just that if you want to get to the entrance to the three passages, you have to cross at least a hundred feet of ice, and under the ice, no one can be sure if there is still the blue light point that appeared just now, especially after the two rows of tower-shaped lampstands suddenly appeared on the ice, so that everyone did not dare to try it easily.
The temperature is still dropping, and the monks in the Qi refining period are already dying at the moment, and the monks in the early stage of foundation building are also shivering from the cold, with more air coming out and less air intake.
As for the monks in the middle and late stages of foundation building, the situation is not much better. It is no exaggeration to say that if there was no way to get out of here, or a way to lead to the three passages on the opposite side, everyone present would have been frozen into ice.
Shaoqing, the top-grade magic weapon Tianhuo Divine Sword, Ye Tian was no longer able to perceive the temperature it emitted.
Ye Tian rubbed his hands together, and immediately took out an elixir and swallowed it into his abdomen, feeling a warm current passing through his body for an instant, and then moved his muscles and bones, and looked at the end of the passage.
He is very aware of his current situation, if he doesn't fight, he will definitely die, if he fights, he may die, and there may be new opportunities.
In this dilemma of having no choice, Ye Tian took a deep breath, lifted the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword, and walked towards the other end of the ice cave.
Five, ten, fifteen......
Ye Tian finally crossed the longest distance that the Blood Moon Sect disciples and other sect disciples had walked, and as he took one more step, the light blue flames hanging from the lampstand in the ice cave immediately jumped up, and immediately rushed down.
Not only that, but there were also tower-shaped lampstands on both sides of the ice, and the square block of ice in the center flickered and flickered at the same time, like rhythmic breathing.
The temperature inside the ice cave dropped even lower in an instant.
The monks in the Qi refining period and the early stage of foundation building looked at Ye Tian's galloping figure, and finally stopped there forever, turning into ice sculptures, and their eyes still carried endless expectations, regrets and longings.
Those monks who were closely following behind Ye Tian and above the middle stage of foundation building were trying their best at this moment to escape from this terrifying ice cave as soon as possible.
Ye Tian walked in the front, and whenever a blue light point fell, he would use the sword spine of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sword to block it.
The Heavenly Fire Divine Sword, a top-grade magic weapon, although it had no temperature under the severe cold of the ice cave, could still emit scorching flames under the urging of spiritual power, burning the blue light spots that fell on the spine of the sword.
The distance between Ye Tian and the other end of the ice cave was gradually narrowing, but the monks behind him were getting fewer and fewer.
When Ye Tian appeared on the other end with difficulty, and looked back, those Blood Moon Sect disciples and the monks of other sects, there were only a few dozen people left, and the short distance of a hundred zhang was really nine deaths.
Ye Tian's face was pale, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead oozed out one by one. Along the way, he used the top-grade magic weapon Tianhuo Divine Sword to slash at the blue point of light, plus resisting the severe cold of the ice cave, and the spiritual power in his body was almost exhausted. He didn't dare to stay longer, and after swallowing a few pills to restore spiritual power, he walked directly towards the middle passage.
The more than ten people who were chasing behind Ye Tian, seeing him enter the middle passage, avoided his choice one after another, so as not to conflict with him, and entered the other two passages.
