17 Frozen Into an Ice Sculpture, A New Spirit Root. (2/2)

” What the-!!” Ling Tian suddenly realized that he couldn't move an inch from the spot he is standing. Ling Tian's face went pale when he saw that his lower half of the body was frozen in ice, that too without him even realizing it.

.......

Ling Tian's body was completely frozen but he was still conscious. He couldn't feel his body at all. It was impossible for him to guess just how terrifying the ice attribute spirit energy was, to be able to freeze him without making him feel anything at all.

But it didn't stop there, as the cold energy started to invade even his sea of consciousness.

” What?! .....this energy.... It's trying to freeze even my soul?!” Ling Tian now felt despair for the first time after reincarnating in this world. Even Raiga was unable to make him feel this way. But of course, that doesn't mean this cold energy is more dangerous than Raiga. It's just because Ling Tian felt that dying without feeling a thing is far more scarier than everything.

The cold energy started to freeze Ling Tian's soul and Ling Tian felt like it was all over for him.

When the cold energy reached the part of Ling Tian's soul where the black vortex was situated. The cold energy started getting sucked into the vortex. The black vortex started expanding in it's size as it started to frantically absorb the cold energy in Ling Tian's surrounding.

Ling Tian now felt like all the despair he felt just disappear. But Ling Tian was shocked to find that there was such a sinister black vortex in his soul. The suddenly a thought came to his mind.

” Could this be the devouring force, Raiga talked about?.....well, it literally is devouring all the spirit energy around me. Looks like I'm not destined to die here after all.” Ling Tian came to his conclusion after deducing the facts.

” Hehe, just wait old man. I'll be sure to give you a grateful fist on your face.” Ling Tian said with an evil grin.

....

After five days since Ling Tian entered the final chamber of the Martial Arts Library.

Elder Sun and Su Lingyan were standing outside the chamber. There was a beautiful girl around the age of 18 , standing next to the duo.

” Elder Sun, it's been five days already. Is Ling Tian really alright?” Su Lingyan asked Elder Sun in a hoarse voice as there were tears threatening to come out of her eyes. One had to admit that her eyes were beautiful despite her face being disfigured.

” He should be alright. He must be facing some kind of trials in order to get the approval of our Progenitor.” Elder Sun said with smile. But even he was uncertain about Ling Tian's whereabouts at this point of time.

” Elder Sun is right, Lingyan. That guy should be fine.” The beautiful girl beside Su Lingyan said to comfort her.

” Nn. I hope so. Thanks Mengyan.” Su Lingyan said to the girl named Mengyan. In response, the girl named Mengyan simply smiled wryly.

” But why are you worried about this guy so much, Lingyan? You barely know about him.” The girl named Mengyan couldn't help but ask.

” Because he is just like you and Su Yu. He acknowledged me as a person.” Su Lingyan smiled as she replied.

The girl named Mengyan didn't say anything and just stayed silent.

....

Meanwhile, Inside the chamber.

Ling Tian was still frozen as an ice sculpture. But that hardly faced him as he was sleeping without a care.

Ling Tian woke up after a bit and noticed that the black vortex in his soul was still devouring the cold energy. It seemed like there was almost an unlimited amount of cold energy in this chamber.

While Ling Tian was bored and was going to sleep for a bit more, he noticed a bright blue light shining in his sea of consciousness.

Ling Tian inspected it closely and found that it was very familiar to him. But he didn't dare to believe his guess. But the more Ling Tian inspected, the more he was sure of his guess.

” A spirit root?! What the hell ?! I have a new spirit root? How did that happen? It seems to be an ice attribute Spirit root as well!”

Yes. There was a new Spirit root other than the spirit root he originally had. And it was an ice attribute Spirit root. With this, Ling Tian now have two spirit roots. Now he can be considered a genius in spirit energy cultivation with his rare twin spirit roots.
