Chapter 233: Ice Cave Cemetery
Zhu Rong is to die with the co-workers, the only thing that can restrain Zhu Rong is water, although we can't find water in the scorching abyss, and what can restrain Zhu Rong can't be ordinary water, but in addition to being able to control the dark flames, I can also control the frost formed by the resentment of the souls.
Zhu Rong should have sensed my intentions, he wanted to withdraw the fire chain, but the iron chain was a weapon wrapped around his body, looking at the frost that quickly spread towards his body, his face suddenly changed, and he immediately made a decision to immediately fuse the fire refining in his hand, but I already knew what the overlord of the desolation in front of him was afraid of, and the Hades Emperor Banner in his hand slammed on the ground, and read out loud the golden body inscription on the banner body.
In an instant, a thick frost spread out from all around my body, and those hot molten slurry touched the frost and immediately condensed into ice, Zhu Rong's huge body was trying to control the molten to resist, but before his huge hand waved, it was instantly frozen in the frost behind it, like a behemoth ice sculpture standing in a white ice field.
The crimson abyss of fire in front of our eyes was instantly frozen in a piece of frost, and even the towering red sky pillar has now become a white snow peak, Zhu Rong can't move in the frost at all, what he wants to resist is not the ordinary frost but the resentment of the revenant soul of the underworld, we began to be vigilant for a long time, and finally found that Zhu Rong could not break through the frost of resentment.
We just breathed a long sigh of relief, and when we left, Wen Zhuo seemed to remember something, picked up a piece of ice from the ground and wrapped it in his arms, and we bypassed the Red Sky Pillar and saw the entrance to the next abyss, the underworld that was once dominated by me is still so strange in my eyes, but it is far more dangerous than I expected, the Zhurong we encountered is only the first abyss of the Nine Abyss Underworld, and there is a more dangerous journey waiting for us behind.
When we stepped into the entrance, everything before us was gone in an instant, and the wind whistling in our ears was bitter and biting, unlike the scorching abyss we had experienced before, and when we opened our eyes, we could see a completely white world, which seemed to be much brighter than the scorching abyss, because there were thick frosts and towering ice peaks everywhere.
This is the abyss of ice in the second abyss of the underworld, giving us the feeling that in addition to the biting cold, it is a death-like silence, Bai Ze once told us to be careful not to be noticed by the dead soul when entering the underworld, but it seems that here we have been quietly looking around for a long time and have not found any abnormalities.
Everywhere you can see is the eternal ice, I subconsciously pulled the collar only to feel the biting cold wind mixed with ice and snow flying all over the sky, the hand is cold without the slightest temperature, this is a place where only the unperceived soul can exist, the piercing ice can make the flowing blood coagulate, absolutely no flesh and blood can survive in such a cold place.
Bai Ze said that the entrance to the next abyss should go all the way through the vast ice field to the east, and we really didn't dare to stop in this place, because once we stopped, we would find that our bodies would be frozen in the ice and snow, and according to Bai Ze's guidance, we carefully stepped into the cold ice field.
I don't know what kind of ghost we will encounter in front of us, in short, we are ready, there will be some twists and turns before we see the god here, the wind and snow make it difficult for us to see things in the distance, the deeper we go into the ice field, the more we feel that our body does not belong to us, our legs have long been unconscious in the cold ice and snow, and we can only numbly repeat the action of lifting up and stepping in.
Wen Zhuo walked in the front, we followed the footprints he had stepped on in the snow and ice behind him, only in this way that we would not drift apart, we had been trying to find a place to rest in the wind and snow, but the vast ice field had nothing but lifeless and frozen peaks.
But what makes us strange is that although the wind and snow are cold and biting along the way, we always pay full attention and carefully guard the surroundings, but after walking for so long, we have not even encountered a single ghost, the more we are like this, the more unsteady we are, not to mention that the vision has been blurred by the ice and snow and it is difficult to see farther away.
"Look!" Wen Zhuo suddenly raised his hand in front of us and said loudly, his voice becoming faint in the cold wind.
We followed Wen Zhuo's finger down, and saw that in the middle of the wind and snow blown away by the cold wind, there was an impassable iceberg mountain range blocking our path, and at the foot of the mountain there was a huge ice cave that seemed to lead to the back of the mountain range.
We kept moving in the direction indicated by Bai Ze, and it seemed that we would have to cross this ice cave to reach the next entrance, the prince said to us, wiping the ice and snow from his face.
"Hold on a little longer, and maybe get some rest in the ice cave."
We seem to see hope deep and shallow feet in the thick snow forward, finally reached the ice cave after entering, although it is still cold and biting, but at least there is no raging wind and snow, we pat the ice and snow on our bodies and then carefully look around the ice cave in front of us, it is full of condensed ice, the huge ice cave can echo for a long time even if we whisper.
"Take a break and then continue on the road, it seems that you have to cross this ice cave before reaching the next intersection, and it is estimated that you will not be able to reach it for a while." The ice cave is too deep and the relationship is not very good, and I can't see the distant places, so I looked around to make sure that there was no abnormality, and came back to tell everyone.
"It's also strange, it stands to reason that there should be ghosts haunting this underworld, why haven't we encountered anything after walking for so long?" Wen Zhuo sat down against the icicle a little tiredly and said in surprise.
"Did you encounter any ghosts in the Abyss of Ice last time you came to the Underworld?" Yun Duruo looked at Gu Xiaoxiao and asked seriously.
"Nope." Gu Xiaoxiao shook his head and said definitely. "But last time I came here with the Emperor of the Hades, how dare the Emperor of the Hades make a reprieve, and I don't have time to hide, how dare I haunt."
"How far is it from the next entrance?" I rubbed my numb legs and asked Gu Xiaoxiao without the slightest feeling.
"We're not halfway through this ice cave yet." Gu Xiaoxiao thought about it and said to us. "But I remember that this was the only place to shelter from the wind and snow, and after leaving this ice cave, you would always encounter a year-round blizzard, right...... I do remember something. ”
"What's the matter?" We all looked at Gu Xiaoxiao.
"The last time I passed through this ice cave, the Hades Emperor told me not to stop, and I didn't care at the time, after all, I had the power of ten thousand demons in my body at that time, and now that I think about it, it seems that the Hades Emperor's words have other meanings." Gu Xiaoxiao said to us seriously. "It's a pity that I forgot to ask at the time."
"Don't stop?" The prince immediately looked around alertly. "Is there a danger lurking in this ice cave?"
"What danger can there be, if you should have encountered it a long time ago, it is very strange that you have been safe all the way, haven't you noticed that this abyss of ice is quiet and strange?" Yinyue sat on the ground and said thoughtfully.
"Whatever happens, I still have to go down, or I forgot one thing when I entered the abyss of ice before." I sighed and said remorsefully.
"What's the matter?" The others asked, confused.
"I forgot to take back the frost that was condensed by the souls of the souls that froze Zhurong and the Scorching Abyss."
"Why all of a sudden?" Wen Zhuo asked puzzled.
"The Abyss of Fire loses its power and effect when it is condensed by frost, and don't forget that there are people besides us who can't wait to enter the underworld." I replied with a grim face.
"Mi Ziqi!" The prince immediately reacted and said thoughtfully. "She will definitely be with us behind us, but it is still difficult to know whether some things are a curse or a blessing, at least before we defeat the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Mi Ziqi and we have the same purpose, even if she enters the underworld, she may be able to help us, as for what will happen later, we can't think so much for the time being."
"I don't know where Yan Hui is now, his life and death in the underworld are uncertain, I believe that with his physiognomy skills, we should definitely be able to calculate our current situation, I just hope that Yan Hui can come and join us as soon as possible." Wen Zhuo sighed heavily and said with emotion.
I haven't heard the voices of Yun Duruo and Yinyue for a long time, I turned my head and saw in the dim light that they might have fallen asleep because they were too tired, I was afraid that it would be dangerous to fall asleep in such a cold place, I hurriedly went to wake them up but found that their bodies could not move, and I was shocked to find that the entire lower body was completely frozen and wrapped in frost.
I was taken aback and hurriedly reminded the others, Wen Zhuo, the crown prince and Gu Xiaoxiao were the same, we were talking for a while, and the time we were talking was unconsciously frozen by the ice, and the ice was extremely strong and couldn't move at all after struggling a few times.
"The frost spreads so fast, it seems to want to freeze us all here." The prince's voice was a little surprised.
I hurriedly sacrificed the ice on the body of the Dark Flame and was instantly retreated, I used the Dark Flame to burn off the ice on the other people's bodies, Silver Moon and Yun Duruo were woken up by me and didn't know it, if they accidentally fell asleep here, they were afraid that they would never wake up at all.
"There's something wrong with this frost!" The prince looked around and his vision was always blocked by the dim light, the prince took out the wishful orb to brighten up with the Dharma, and when the peaceful Buddha light illuminated the ice cave where we are now, everyone was really frightened.
In the transparent ice all around us, there were all kinds of ghosts with hideous faces, some with their eyes closed, some with their teeth and claws, their eyes frightened, but all of them were motionless and frozen by the frost, and the whole ice cave was as strange and eerie as a tomb of the dead.
