C50 (1/2)

When Bai Chen was halfway to the cold pond, he held onto his clothes that were covered in frost, revealing a pale complexion. His movements carried a hint of stiffness as he walked towards the exit of the cold pond.

Right at this moment, a strange movement from the Dragon Crystal appeared in Bai Chen's mind. He took a deep breath, and a dense white frost qi entered his mouth, but that cold qi did not come out from his body. Instead, it was attracted by an unknown suction force and flowed into his head.

A shocked expression appeared on his face. It had to be known that on the Tian Yuan Continent, the brain region of a martial artist was an extremely magical place. Unless it was the energy of the martial artist himself, otherwise, any strange energy that drilled into the brain region of a martial artist would be in danger.

”Roar! Roar!” A faint dragon's roar appeared in Bai Chen's mind, a mysterious sensation appeared in his mind. It was a mysterious message, and it sounded like a dragon's roar in his mind. Along with the dragon's roar, there was also a mysterious fluctuation.

”Buzz buzz …” In the cold pond, an extremely cold energy rushed out from the lake towards Bai Chen's body. With a crisp sound, a layer of ice appeared on his body.

”This?” When Bai Chen heard the sound that could even shake his own body, the spiritual energy in his mind trembled. Then, the Echelon Tower in his sea of consciousness began to absorb the gelid qi around him at a rapid speed. That wave of gelid qi was all directed towards the third level of the Pagoda, and traces of a confused light appeared on the third level.

The third level of the tower in his sea of consciousness. He was actually starting to absorb the spiritual qi in his body? When Bai Chen realized this, he felt a surge of excitement in his heart. Long ago, he had been anticipating what would happen when the third level of the Pagoda opened. Now, seeing that there was hope for the third level, what he was not excited about was a lie.

”I wonder what sort of benefits I'll get after I get to the third level?” he thought to himself. A wave of unexplainable excitement accompanied this suspicion within Bai Chen's heart.

Bai Chen became a Body Cultivator because of the opening of the first floor, and because of that, he regained the ability to cultivate spiritual energy. Now, he was very curious about what kind of enhancement the opening of the third floor could bring to his body.

In fact, Bai Chen had an unfathomable feeling in his heart. He would definitely climb to the peak of the tower for the rest of his life.

While Bai Chen was deep in thought, the layer of white ice around him had already spread to his entire body, almost reaching his waist. However, he was still in a daze, as if he did not notice anything at all.

No one knew that while Bai Chen's body was frozen by the ice, three streams of gelid qi from the cold pond flowed into his body. The first was absorbed by the tower in his sea of consciousness, and the other was absorbed by the dragon crystal in his head, absorbing 30% of the gelid qi. Finally, the third was absorbed by his body, leaving behind 10% of the gelid qi to temper his body.

”Roar …” ”Roar … Roar …” At this moment, when the three-eyed leopard lantern spirit beasts, who were isolated by the side of the cold pond, saw that human warriors were attacking, they immediately let out angry roars. However, when facing the water of the cold pond, they didn't dare to get too close to it.

These spirit beasts were mostly intelligent. They stared at Bai Chen who was slowly freezing into ice, and a hint of doubt flashed through their eyes that were filled with killing intent. It was as if they were wondering how the human martial artist in front of them could stay in the cold pond forever.

As Bai Chen's body gradually froze into ice, Elder Jinhua, who was held high above his head, had a painful expression on his face. The Spiritual Sense in his mind could clearly feel that Bai Chen's body had been frozen.

”Bai Chen, Bai Chen, wake up! Wake up! We are about to be frozen! Wake up!” Elder Jin Hua had an anxious expression on his face. A trace of spiritual energy was mixed in his mouth as it flowed into Bai Chen's ears.

At this moment, after Bai Chen's body was attacked by the gelid qi, the ”Body Tempering Coiling Mantra” that he cultivated automatically circulated its power. After the gelid qi entered his body, it immediately changed from a fierce tiger to a reindeer.

As Bai Chen absorbed the gelid qi, he felt even more ice-cold. At this moment, even his blood and soul was frozen by the gelid qi, as bits and pieces of ice crawled onto his brow, freezing his hair.

Unable to Thoughtless Tranquility... While Bai Chen's attention was focused on the tower, his consciousness seemed to have been cut off along with his body, and he actually did not feel any external changes in his body. Instead, while he was in the tower, he saw the third level of the tower being filled with an extremely cold aura, and his heart was extremely excited.
