The world descends on Sky Island: God-level talents are drawn at the beginning.

No one would have imagined that there would be such a small box in a little-known corner of the palace.

If it weren't for the Korean star sending out coal balls to search, we would have missed it entirely!
At this moment, everyone glanced at the direction from which the coal briquette had come.

There is a huge pillar of fire there.

Beneath the pillar lies an extremely hidden compartment, within which spatial fluctuations still linger.

Clearly, this is a treasure chest that is extremely well hidden.

However, thanks to Coal Ball's keen sense of smell and the Void Wolf's innate sharp perception of space, it still managed to find them.

In other words, this treasure chest is not something an ordinary person can find.

If Han Xing hadn't specifically asked Mei Qiu to search the palace, and if Mei Qiu hadn't possessed unique treasure-hunting abilities, they might not have been able to find the hidden treasures even if they knew there were treasures inside.

At the same time, Han Xing took the box from Mei Qiu's mouth and put it into his backpack.

He patted Coal Ball's head and praised, "Little Coal Ball, you're great."

"After we finish exploring this secret realm, I'll take you to eat something delicious."

Upon hearing the word "delicious," Little Coal Ball's wolf eyes flashed with a ghostly green light, its mouth slightly open, and saliva almost dripping from its mouth.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on everyone's face.

Han Xing quickly looked away and said in a deep voice, "The first palace took 6 seconds."

“Those guys haven’t arrived yet, let’s continue to the second palace.”

"go!"

The crowd responded in unison, and golden light enveloped their bodies once again.

The unconscious Bauhinia God was firmly secured by Linghui with vines and moved along with the group.

"call out--!"

Seven figures streaked across the sky and instantly left the [Fire God Palace], arriving on the white jade street outside.

After passing through the palace complex, we soon arrived at the second palace.

Before them stood a magnificent palace, its entire body a deep blue, as if sculpted from ice!
The entire building is made of millennia-old ice.

Two frost crystal pillars stand on either side of the palace gate, each adorned with nine lifelike ice dragon sculptures, their mouths spewing out eternally frigid air.

Everyone looked up at the two ancient seal characters on the ice crystal plaque above the palace gate.

【Frost】

The two characters seemed to be formed from flowing, cold mist, with ice crystals occasionally drifting down.

What's even more amazing is that each stroke is constantly being recombined and transformed, sometimes as sharp as a knife and chisel, and sometimes as gentle as flowing water.

"Frost..."

Linghui murmured.

"What terrifying ice-elemental power..."

The metal surface of the steel tube had begun to frost over, emitting a faint "crackling" sound.

Without the slightest hesitation, Han Xing ordered, "Enter the second palace!"

Everyone nodded and then burst into a burst of speed, rushing towards the entrance.

"Wow..."

Just like entering the first Li Huo Shen Gong (Palace of the God of Fire).

The moment they stepped into this Frost Palace, it was as if they had entered another world.

The interior of the hall has a strange mirror structure, with each ice wall reflecting the distorted figures of the people.

Tens of thousands of icicles hung from the dome, gleaming coldly like inverted swords.

The ground is made of translucent ice, through which one can see a torrent of blue energy surging below.

"Crack!"

As soon as Linghui took a step, the ice beneath her feet suddenly cracked open with spiderweb-like patterns.

Wisps of icy blue mist rose from the cracks, condensing in the air into frost-flower-shaped runes.

The Great Beast Lord said in a deep voice, "Look over there, there's another altar just like that!"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look in the direction of the sound.

In the very center of this great hall stands an altar of ice.

The entire altar exuded an endless aura of coldness, as if it could freeze time.

As soon as they focused their gaze on that spot, they felt waves of chill creeping over them, eroding their brains and slowing their consciousness to an unbearable degree.

As they gritted their teeth and peered through the endless chilling aura, they finally saw the core area of ​​the altar.

There, a drop of crystal-clear blue liquid floated, emanating an extreme chill that seemed to freeze the space.

"That's... a drop of water?" Qinghe's eyes showed disbelief.

Others were also shocked.

Although we still don't know the identity of this drop of water or what kind of ability it has.

But just from the aura it exudes, you can tell that this is definitely another extraordinary treasure!
It's even comparable to obtaining the [Unextinguishable Pure Flame]!
Similarly, such precious treasures are always guarded by guardians.

At that moment, they also sensed a terrifying aura rapidly awakening.

"Snap—Snap—!"

Then a cracking sound rang out.

The ice next to the altar suddenly cracked open with countless spiderweb-like fissures!
"Boom!!!"

The entire altar trembled violently, and ice crystal fragments scattered like a torrential rain.

Immediately afterwards, a giant claw covered in dark blue scales broke through the ice, its tip wreathed in icy air that froze the space.

"Roar!!!"

Amidst a deafening roar, a colossal creature broke free from its icy grip!
This is an ancient creature whose body is entirely made of ice!
It resembles a saber-toothed tiger but has four pairs of ice wings and is covered with scales that look like ice.

Each scale is engraved with ancient symbols.

The moment it saw Han Xing and the others, its six ice-blue eyes lit up simultaneously, and thick ice walls instantly formed wherever its gaze fell.

“It’s the Frostfall Sacred Tiger!” Qinghe’s voice trembled. “It is also an extremely ancient magical beast.”

"Its rarity is no less than that of the Primordial Thunder Beast!"

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the Great Beast Lord.

However, after staring at it for a moment, the Great Beast Lord shook his head and said, "This is not the Frostfall Sacred Tiger, but just a puppet containing a trace of its bloodline."

"The real Frostfall Holy Tiger is far more terrifying than this."

At this moment, the Holy Tiger opposite seemed to have heard the words of the Great Beast God, and a fierce glint flashed in its icy blue eyes.

The colossal beast spread its icy wings, which blotted out the sky, and each flap of its wings stirred up a bone-chilling cold wave.

It looked down at the intruder, exhaling azure icy breath.

"Those who trespass upon the Frost God Palace... shall be eternally condemned to the Ice Hell!!"

With its breath, the temperature of the entire palace plummeted to absolute zero.

The protective divine light surrounding Han Xing and the others began to freeze, and even their thinking became sluggish.
However, Han Xing's expression remained unchanged. With a gentle tremor of his [Primordial Holy Body], all the ice on his body shattered.

Immediately afterwards, he ordered in a deep voice, "Same as always, Coal Ball, go and loot the palace."

"Everyone else, finish this fight within one second!"

"boom--!"

At Han Xing's command, everyone instantly unleashed their full power!

The Great Beast Lord is still leading the charge!
He was the first to reveal his true form as an ancient thunder beast, his body wreathed in raging lightning, tearing open a scorching passage in absolute zero.

Lightning and ice collided violently, producing a deafening explosion.

"Thunder Prison Chains!"

With a roar, thick lightning bolts transformed into solid chains, firmly binding the four pairs of ice wings of the Frostfall Holy Tiger.

Lightning and ice intertwined, bursting forth with a dazzling blue-white light.

However, this Frostfall Sacred Tiger was significantly stronger than the Flame Puppet in the previous palace. With mid-level God Lord-level combat power, plus a trace of the ancient Frostfall Sacred Tiger's bloodline within it, its combat strength far surpassed that of other tigers of the same rank!

"Roar!!!"

It roared to the sky, "You mere ants, how dare you trap me!"

"Crack! Click!"

The lightning chains binding the Great Beast Lord snapped instantly!

He himself also suffered a great deal of backlash, and the massive body of the Primordial Thunder Beast instantly retreated several steps!

Just then, a strong voice came from behind.

"Brother Beast, don't be afraid, I'm here to help you!"

Behind them, a huge block of metal fell from the sky!

Tu Gang's metallic body instantly disintegrated and reassembled, transforming into countless fine metal threads that wrapped around the giant beast's limbs like a spider web.

The extreme cold makes metal brittle, but with the continuous infusion of life force from Linghui, the metal wires always maintain amazing toughness.

"Roar!!!"

The Frostfall Holy Tiger, which had just broken free from the chains of the Thunder Prison, was now restrained again, letting out a furious roar of resentment!
It was about to continue struggling to break free.

And this time.

Qinghe tossed out her lotus leaf umbrella, which spun rapidly in the air.

"A blinding leaf!"

In the blink of an eye, a giant lotus leaf bloomed atop the Frostfall Holy Tiger's head.

An endless azure aura descended, staining the Holy Tiger's icy blue eyes with a layer of green, temporarily interfering with its perception!
Not only that.

Miaoqing gently plucked the strings of her guqin, producing highly seductive notes.

The Demon Lotus Greatsword slashed continuously, cracking the Frostfall Holy Tiger's ice crystal armor!
Long Yu relentlessly unleashed dragon magic, bombarding it relentlessly!
"Boom! Boom!"

With everyone's concerted efforts, the Frostfall Holy Tiger, which possessed the combat power of a mid-level God Lord, was once again briefly subdued.

At this moment, Han Xing, who had already drawn his bowstring taut and was ready to unleash his attack, had already chosen his moment.

"It's now!"

The next moment, he released the bowstring in his hand.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

A dense whistling sound filled the air as nine arrows, each imbued with the power of the tide and more destructive than the last, burst forth in an instant!
It surged forth like a colossal wave rising from nine heavens.

Wherever the arrow passed, the ice crystals melted, the space collapsed, and it aimed straight for the giant beast's brow with an aura of annihilation!

"Bam! Boom boom boom!"

Nine consecutive piercing sounds rang out, all the arrows hitting their targets precisely.

And each arrow, the moment it pierces the opponent's body, unleashes an endless wave of power that ravages its body!
The Frostfall Sacred Tiger, whose body had only suffered a few scales shattered after being bombarded by the crowd, was now showing more and more cracks.

Immediately afterwards, its large body began to disintegrate at a visible speed, turning into countless ice crystal fragments starting from its head.

"Ugh——!"

It let out a final, unwilling roar, and its entire body exploded, turning into countless ice crystals that scattered across the sky.

This time, the battle took a little longer.

The battle lasted 0.93 seconds from start to finish.

At the very moment the battle ended, Coal Ball had already transformed into a black shadow and was darting around the hall.

Han Xing also transformed into a streak of light and rushed towards the altar that exuded a strong chill!
The target was none other than the drop of blue liquid at the top of the altar.

As he got closer, he could feel the terror of that drop of liquid more and more!
It was a chill that seemed to freeze time and thought completely!

The closer I got, the more I felt my thoughts freeze, and even my sense of time became blurred.

It was as if... I was about to be completely frozen in place in the next second, and then fall into an eternal ice seal.

Clearly, this is the final test for the treasure.

To obtain such a treasure, one must have the strength to withstand its power!
To withstand this power, one must be at least a top-tier existence among mid-level god-lords!

Although Han Xing hasn't reached the mid-level God Lord level in terms of combat power, he has the [Primordial Holy Body]!

"Om-!"

As nine-colored light erupted from his body, the Primordial Sacred Body began to operate again, absorbing the surrounding extreme cold essence to restore Han Xing's physical body.

And his mind started working again.

The next second, Han Xing stared at the drop of icy blue liquid without the slightest hesitation.

With a wave of his hand, he put it into his backpack.

[Obtained: Ice Soul Essence (Unknown)]

...

Just like when they obtained the [Undying Pure Flame], after Han Xing took away this drop of [Ice Soul Essence], the entire hall seemed to have lost its source of power.

All the cold air vanished instantly, and even the glacier beneath their feet began to melt rapidly.

At the same time, a shadow emerged again from the corner.

Little Coal Ball, carrying an ice-blue crystal treasure chest, came to the group.

The treasure chest also contained a large amount of treasure.

Upon seeing this, a smile appeared on Han Xing's face.

"Well done, little coal."

He exclaimed in admiration, then put the treasure chest from the coal ball's mouth into his backpack.

"Ouch~!"

The little coal ball made a series of childish sounds, seemingly very happy.

The other team members also had relieved smiles on their faces.

After taking the treasure chest, the Korean star confirmed that there were no other treasures in the palace.

Then he said in a deep voice, "The second palace took ten seconds."

“Those guys should be reaching the chasm soon, let’s speed things up.”

Everyone's expressions tightened, and they responded in deep voices, "Alright!"

As soon as they finished speaking, they burst into high speed again and rushed towards the palace exit!

...

...

Across the insurmountable barrier, the gods of the Western Regions are making their arduous journey forward.

"Boom!"

With only one arm remaining, Venerable Bitter Sea cleaved the incoming chaotic gale with a single palm strike.

Then, as if sensing something, he looked up.

Through the surging sea of ​​clouds, he could vaguely see golden light shimmering among the palaces in the distance.

"Hmm? Someone has already reached the end of the chasm and started looting the treasures?"

Upon realizing this, Venerable Kuhai felt a sudden tightness in his heart and stared intently!

Then he saw two palaces that had already dimmed.

Suddenly, he crushed one of the prayer beads in his hand with a "snap": "They're from the Southern Region!"

"Eternal and boundless... They've actually reached the end and looted the treasures of both palaces?"

"How come it's so fast!?"

Even the usually calm and collected Venerable Kuhai felt extremely anxious at this moment!
