died.

The person was frozen solid like an ice sculpture; there was no need for further verification—they were definitely dead.

But this person did not freeze to death.

Those who made it this far, even if they couldn't hold on any longer, at least knew to turn back beforehand. There's no reason for them to freeze to death here.

He had several wounds on his body, clearly indicating that he had been in a fight, and the wound on his neck was likely the fatal one.

"What methods?"

"Claw-like combat techniques?"

Looking at the wounds on the corpse, everyone couldn't help but frown slightly.

While they possess some claw techniques, to scratch someone to death is undeniably barbaric.

"Hmph, Tianjing Group."

Judging from the insignia on this person's clothes, he is a martial artist from the Tianjing Group.

Some people couldn't help but chuckle. Of the seven major martial arts groups, only the Tianjing Group didn't survive to the end, and one of them even died in the iceberg. It was truly a double misfortune.

"Everyone be careful, there might be some kind of strange beast inside."

After reviewing the document, Liu Wuji gave a stern reminder.

Everyone had thought of this, but they weren't too nervous.

The corpse was covered in scratches, but they looked more like human fingers than animal claws.

This person was most likely killed by other martial artists, rather than by a strange beast.

Of course, this does not mean that there are no strange beasts in the iceberg.

In short, the discovery of the deceased has made everyone even more vigilant.

They looked at each other and continued walking.

Although it's dangerous, nothing ventured, nothing gained!

As Lu Yuan walked along one side of the crowd, he glanced at the martial arts hunters on the other side.

If nothing unexpected happens, the person who died at Tianjing Group was probably killed by him!

Lu Yuan had been puzzled as to why a martial arts hunter had become so well-behaved.

The secret realm is always in daylight, which is naturally inconvenient for martial arts hunters who are good at using the cover of night to hide and launch surprise attacks.

But his nature is hard to change, and given the opportunity, he will still act without hesitation.

Or rather, he had actually been spying and waiting for an opportunity.

"snort."

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan sneered.

Now that everyone has entered the iceberg, there's no guarantee that the martial arts hunters won't strike again!

However, Lu Yuan did not say these words aloud, nor did he reveal his identity as a martial arts hunter.

Why did he remind his opponent?

Once inside the iceberg, everyone else, including Dugu Feiying and Liu Wuji, became his rivals!

At this moment, Lu Yuan still firmly believed that there must be a great treasure hidden deep in the iceberg.

At the same time, the martial arts hunter couldn't help but glance at Lu Yuan, a hint of doubt showing in his eyes.

He must have already realized that Lu Yuan knew his identity, so he didn't understand why Lu Yuan hadn't exposed him.

For a simple warrior hunter, the human heart is still too complicated.

"besides."

As they continued to investigate, they discovered three more bodies.

They all died from being torn apart!

Clearly, it was all done by martial arts hunters.

There were two official warriors in camouflage uniforms and one warrior from a smaller faction.

The last victim was four kilometers away from the outer edge of the iceberg!

It's important to know that the temperature inside an iceberg drops by meters; once you get here, the temperature is already very low.

Even with everyone's strength, and by fully mobilizing their inner energy, they could barely keep warm this time.

"The killer is quite strong."

As we continued walking, someone suddenly couldn't help but say something.

To still have the strength to kill under such extreme cold is indeed impressive.

Of course, extreme cold is fair to everyone; his opponent also had little strength left.

Rather than being killed by a murderer, it's more accurate to say he died from his own recklessness.

After all, if they retreated in time, even if the assassin was stronger than them, it would be extremely difficult for a general to kill them.

"Do you guys remember that guy called the Warrior Hunter on the way to the secret realm?"

Then someone spoke up; it was Su Jingyuan from the Beiming Pavilion.

No one spoke, but they were already pondering something.

This method of killing is indeed very similar to that of the so-called martial arts hunter.

Could it be that the martial arts hunters are also in the secret realm, and have even reached this deepest part?

That makes sense. As martial arts hunters, wouldn't there be plenty of high-quality prey in the secret realm?

Thinking of this, everyone subconsciously distanced themselves from one another.

If that's the case, then the warrior hunters are very likely among them right now!

"Did you examine those corpses closely just now?"

Just as the atmosphere was tense, Su Jingyuan spoke again.

His words were pointed, and the others were startled again, recalling the corpses from before.

They all died from being bitten or scratched, but judging from the shape of the wounds, they were not wild animals, but humans, which perfectly matches the characteristics of a martial arts hunter.

Everyone already knows this, so why is Su Jingyuan bringing it up again?

"It's the right hand!"

Then, someone suddenly realized what the key was and couldn't help but shout it out.

"All the wounds were caused by my right hand!"

"Right hand?"

The others were taken aback again, wondering why there was only the right hand.

Only... my right hand!

Suddenly, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

Swish~!

At that moment, the martial arts hunter made his move, his only remaining right hand, with its five fingers like claws, fiercely grabbing at the person closest to him.

A skilled hunter believes in striking with deadly precision!

These people were too strong at this moment, and they hadn't shown any weaknesses along the way.

On the other hand, as a skilled hunter, he was also very patient and wanted to remain hidden, waiting for the right opportunity.

After all, Lu Yuan never intended to expose him.

However, to his surprise, although Lu Yuan did not expose the deception, Su Jingyuan saw through it.

Having been exposed, he had no choice but to act hastily.

Bang~!

With a muffled thud, the person who was attacked reacted extremely quickly, throwing a punch directly at the attacker.

After all, there is no weakling here at this moment.

Fists and claws collided, and the martial arts hunter staggered back several steps, but the other man had several more puncture wounds on his palm.

The two men used different methods, and therefore had different focuses.

"Kill him!"

However, the others had already reacted and, with a loud shout, were about to rush towards the warrior hunter.

As martial artists, how could they possibly let those who hunted them go unpunished!

Most importantly, given the already difficult situation, we absolutely cannot allow such a dangerous factor to exist.

"Roar~!"

But before the others could pounce, the warrior hunter let out a low growl and took advantage of his retreat to escape.

In the instant she turned around, she glared at Lu Yuan with resentment.

If he hadn't lost his left arm, he wouldn't have been discovered so easily, and it was Lu Yuan who cut off his left arm.

"Stop chasing!"

After chasing for only a dozen meters, everyone stopped at the same time.

There are no roads in this iceberg; if we rush in, we are likely to get separated.

Once they disperse, they become vulnerable to attacks from martial arts hunters.

In an environment where the temperature is dropping, everyone must conserve their energy and avoid unnecessary fighting.

As a dangerous factor, simply driving away the martial arts hunters is sufficient.

"snort."

Lu Yuan glanced at the crowd retreating and snorted, finding it boring.

They had thought that even if the warrior hunters couldn't kill one or two, they would at least create a huge disturbance and exhaust the others' strength. However, they were discovered in advance and had no choice but to flee in haste.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but glance at Su Jingyuan of Beiming Pavilion. His quick wit was indeed far beyond that of ordinary people, as he was able to identify the martial artist hunters immediately.
