177 Mysterious Village (1/2)

Zhao Feng took in a cold breath - he hadn’t expected for the Luohou Bow to transform in such a way.

Its power hadn’t increased, but the true change was the imbuement of elemental properties.

An ice lotus symbol appeared on the Luohuo Bow, while the arrows within the quiver acquired a slightly blue hue.

A part of the power from the crystal had entered the bow by transmitting through the string, and the arrows had been close to the crystal ripples, absorbing a bit of energy from it.

But from the arrow just then, one could see that it was an one-time use item.

Zhao Feng thought deeply for a moment before he picked up a stick off the ground and shot it out from the Luohou Bow.

Sou!

The stick struck its target cleanly but disintegrated inch by inch, casting a layer of ice over the target without fully sealing it in ice.

“It looks like only ‘changed’ arrows can use the power of ice to its greatest.”

Zhao Feng thought in his heart.

This meant that the remaining tens of arrows were precious items since they could seal the target in ice, and from the power exhibited just then, anyone under the 4th Sky of the Ascended Realm would be fully sealed if hit.

Those at the 4th and 5th Sky wouldn’t be able to escape in a short amount of time, but they still had a high chance of staying alive if they were willing to pay a price.

Although someone at the 6th Sky of the Ascended Realm wouldn’t be ice sealed, their movement would be affected.

The effect of this was insane; the only regrettable thing was that these blue arrows were of one-time use.

Zhao Feng concluded that if these arrows were taken back into the outside world, they would shatter due to the change in temperature.

Si-- Si---

The coldness radiating from the freezing pond continued.

Zhao Feng stood nearby and his body shivered since his bloodline power had a limit, and the duration of his Scarlet Blood Fruit’s effect was coming to an end.

Go!

Zhao Feng glanced unwillingly at the freezing pond, but logic told him that this was not his treasure to be had.

This was similar to the ‘Blood Moon Devouring Spirit Sword’. He couldn’t control it.

Zhao Feng needed to reach the True Spirit Realm to get the mysterious crystal tear and this was him with the power of his bloodline - others at the True Spirit Realm might not succeed.

Thinking about it, Zhao Feng thought that his rewards weren’t that bad.

The Luohou Bow had been changed by the crystal and its power rose half a level.

The one-time use arrows gave Zhao Feng some hidden cards, and the latter also felt that his body had stronger resistance against the cold.

After leaving the freezing pond, Zhao Feng headed towards the South-East direction. On the way, the temperature kept dropping.

It was obvious that the mysterious crystal tear was a ‘forbidden’ item in the Sky Boundary Island, and Zhao Feng had accidentally touched it, which changed the temperature of the entire island.

Under the sudden drop in temperature, the Yao beasts returned to their caves while the weaker ones instantly died.

Only the strong Yao beasts weren’t affected.

This had lowered the 3rd stages’ difficulty since the probability of being attacked by a beast horde dropped dramatically.

Zhao Feng didn’t know that this action had once again affected the entire Floating Crest Trial.

…..

Three hours later, a canyon appeared in sight.

A few hours earlier, it might have still looked like a canyon, but now it was an ice gorge.

In Zhao Feng’s mind map, there were a few groups of beasts around here, but because of the temperature change, many of them had retreated back to their caves, which made Zhao Feng’s journey easier.

This canyon had been covered by a large, powerful illusion array, meaning that there should be something wrong here.

In terms of size, this place was as big as the ancient forgotten garden, but it was hidden on the contrary.

Zhao Feng didn’t know what was inside the canyon; it could spell luck or disaster - no one knew.

“There should be some sort of secret here since it’s hidden by an illusion array.”

Zhao Feng flew down from the top and looked downwards.

From his angle, the canyon looked like a black abyss filled with clouds.

Faint noise and aura emerged from the clouds with some arbitrary auras even stronger than the True Spirit Realm cropped up, but being an array master, Zhao Feng had almost full resistance against mental energy illusions and, through his left eye, could see fluctuations of array power.

Hmm?

Zhao Feng wasn’t able to see through the entire array even when he used his full power - all he saw was the landscape of the canyon.

There wasn’t any black abyss nor terrifying Yao beast king.

Ceng!

Zhao Feng’s body lept into the air and floated towards the canyon while ignoring the power of the illusion array.

When he landed, he felt as if he was falling into an abyss, as if a monster had opened its mouth and gulped him up. However, he knew this was the array at work.

This was, after all, an ancient place. Even though he had the mysterious left eye, it didn’t mean he was unstoppable.

After leaping into the air a few times, he landed gracefully near a village.

There were old and young, men and women wearing very simple clothes, and the structures seemed old.

“Spicy smelly tofu, two pieces for a penny.”

“Sweet iced shaw, a penny for one.”

…….

Everywhere, a racket of chaotic noise was present.
