Chapter 376 The White Lion (2/2)

You were trying to touch me, Goldie! Goldie instantly became furious.

While it was thinking of kicking the guy, it was dragged along by Gao Peng. ”Don't make trouble. Be nice.”

Goldie stared at Gao Peng and sighed in confusion.

The gap between the two walls was in front of them. At first, he thought that there was another wall behind the gap. However, when Gao Peng walked over, he found that it was no longer a wall, but a rough stone temple.

The grand hall was ten feet high and propped up by several gray-white stone pillars. There was also a staircase leading to the grand hall. The space between each step of the stone staircase was at least ten feet.

What was even more peculiar was that the entire stone hall was sealed with ice.

The thick ice covered the entire stone hall. Rough ice crystals had formed into several shapes, and the crimson red sky dyed the crystals a blood red.

The solemn, desolate, and dreadful feeling of the obsolete building spread.

”Our master is sealed in the hall,” said the Labyrinth Watcher.

”Are you hoping that I could wake up your master?” Gao Peng frowned. This ice couldn't be ordinary ice. The temperature in the labyrinth wasn't unbearable, although definitely under eighty degrees Fahrenheit. However, the ice had still remained frozen for so many years. They were certainly not ordinary ice crystals. They might cause unpredictable consequences if agitated.

”But I don't know how to remove the seal. It can't be as simple as burning it with fire.” Gao Peng looked at the Labyrinth Watcher.

Dumby relayed the message on his behalf.

The Labyrinth Watcher lowered his head and looked at Gao Peng, its dark eyes unfathomable. After a moment of silence, it spoke with a rusty voice. ”Our master was not sealed by an enemy. He sealed himself. Before he went to sleep, he told us to bring monster trainers to the palace if they came here someday. It could be the only way to wake him up.”

”Goldie. I want you to come in with me.” Gao Peng brought Goldie inside after thinking.

The Labyrinth Watcher watched Gao Peng silently as he was bringing his familiar in. He went silent for a while and suddenly said, ”Are you going to bring the rest of your familiars along?”

Gao Peng stopped and looked at the Labyrinth Watcher. ”No. I'll just bring one.”

...

After watching Gao Peng completely enter the palace, the Labyrinth Watcher turned his head and looked at Xu Heti and Dumby, then shifted his gaze back in silence.

...

The staircase of the stone temple was completely frozen. When Gao Peng stepped on it, he could only feel the force of frozen ice pass from his feet to his entire body.

Gao Peng's feet felt like jelly, and he could feel that his bones were completely frozen.

Gao Peng felt unsuccessful. ”What's wrong with this ice? How could it be so cold?”

Although the damage dealt by the ice elements was transmitted to Goldie beside him, it made Goldie's purple glowing body's volume gradually expand.

However, the ice element couldn't be dispelled. This was an additional effect of the low temperature. After a while, Gao Peng felt like his calves were cramping.

”Elemental barrier.”

A golden elemental barrier from Goldie emerged on Gao Peng's body surface. The coldness of his surroundings was blocked by the barrier. Gao Peng became much more relaxed as he walked.

The stone temple wasn't big, with only a few small rooms. The windows around the stone temple were frozen by thick ice crystals, which made the stone temple a little dim.

There was a huge corpse lying there in the middle of the hall. From the angle where Gao Peng was standing, he couldn't see the true appearance of the body, but he could see blood red hair frozen in the ice.

There was a huge frozen armchair made of ice in the center of the grand hall. On the frozen armchair, there was a white lion the size of a palm crawling in silence with its eyes closed.
