Chapter 1483: Hail Trap (1/2)

“Zzz—” Li Qiye and Yonghuang took their time walking into the valley while noisily stepping on the snow.

Li Qiye was nonchalant with a faint smile on his face as he told Yonghuang: “You need to be ready. The frost here can kill you instantly, so channel your Solar Physique for protection. Fire and ice oppose each other, so this freezing force won’t kill you no matter how powerful it might be.”

“Is the ice source here really that powerful?” Yonghuang’s eyes turned serious. At this time, she channeled her inner physique and energy so that it could erupt on command.

“There’s an ice source, but it’s not that dangerous.” Li Qiye smiled freely: “However, someone has played with it, so its power is a lot more frantic right now.”

“You’re still going forward despite knowing the dangers.” She gave him the side-eye. Of course, she wasn’t blaming him at all. It was more of a coquettish glance that makes the heart itch.

“It’s just a little danger, can’t reach the apex. You can just wait and watch the fun.” Li Qiye grinned: “If he wants to trick me, let him do so before I take his dog life.”

She smiled gracefully in response without feeling any pressure. She always had confidence in Li Qiye since he would stay true to his words. Nothing in this world was difficult for him.

As they continued forward, many people outside held their breaths and gazed at the duo’s every single step with their hearts hanging.

“Buzz.” Once the two reached the depths of the valley, a freezing force suddenly exploded with unbelievable speed and encapsulated the two, turning them into ice sculptures.

However, Yonghuang prepared herself beforehand. The moment the ice layer surrounded her, her Solar Physique erupted with its refined sunfire surging several times more powerful than usual.

“Buzz—” The physique melted the ice right away and continued to spread further to melt everything else.

However, this freezing force was extremely powerful. Like Zhentian had said earlier, it could instantly freeze a G.o.d-Monarch to death. If she wasn’t prepared, this could have been her funeral.

Despite the instantaneous eruption of her physique, the power of this mysterious ice also crazily surged and resisted her high temperature.

Shortly afterward, her sunfire and this freezing force contested each other. She couldn’t melt this G.o.dking level ice, but it couldn’t hurt her either.

As for Li Qiye, he was also frozen and stood still as if he had been killed by the cold.

“There’s danger indeed, what a frightening freezing power.” The cultivators outside were shocked to see this. Even someone as strong Li Qiye had been frozen — this made all the spectators sweat. Luckily, the white general stood guard there or they might have suffered the same fate as Li Qiye just now.

Some of the wavering cultivators heaved a sigh of relief and felt that they had misunderstood the white general. It looks like Zhentian had good intentions after all.

Only the real masters from the previous generation were staring at Su Yonghuang, who was on the verge of being frozen. They were able to see some clues. While she was resisting the cold, the underground area of this valley would change as talismans emerged. These talismans would only appear for a split second. No one would notice them if they weren’t paying attention.

The old masters immediately realized that this freezing force wasn’t part of nature, it was ingrained in the valley. Someone else had done something, this valley was just a trap from the start.

They quickly calculated that the power of this force must be at least a G.o.dking. Perhaps two or three G.o.dkings worked together to do this. Even though no one was personally presiding over it, it was still powerful enough like Zhentian had previously said.

Because of this, they secretly glanced over at Zhentian, who was standing by the entrance. They knew what was going on right away, but no one dared to say anything. Some felt a bit of pity. Li Qiye might be strong, but his schemes weren’t a match for Zhentian at all.

“What a shame, he didn’t listen to my good advice. Like I said, this valley is very dangerous.” Zhentian was shaking his head and seemed to be full of compa.s.sionate pity.
