Chapter 156: Bone-chilling
"Ice mound?" Jing Fan's heart suddenly trembled when he heard this name, and when he thought about it, he seemed to think of something.
"Huh?" Xin Li, who was walking in front, was stunned for a moment, his eyes suddenly became a little dazed, and then said, "It's been called this place since I knew it. ”
As she spoke, she paused for a moment, and then added another sentence as if she was about to affirm Jing Fan again, "From the time of our ancestors a long time ago, or rather, since there was this Northern Stygian Snow Abyss, it has been like this. ”
Jing Fan frowned, his face looked a little puzzled, and said, "How many years has the Northern Stygian Snow Abyss existed?"
Xinli looked happy and laughed, waved his hand, and said, "I don't know the specifics, anyway, it's been a long, long time, I heard that at that time, humans didn't know how to cultivate." ”
Jing Fan was stunned, stopped talking, nodded after thinking about it, and said, "That's really been a long time." ”
Xinli smiled, didn't pay attention to it, and continued to walk forward.
Jing Fan looked at her petite back, his expression changed, and the light and shadow in the distance fell on his face, making his face dark and uncertain.
In the long history of the human race, it is true, when human beings first appeared, they did not cultivate, and later with the changes of the times, the thoughts and insights of the human race have changed one after another, after all, the idea of believing in gods has existed from the beginning, and several generations have worked hard, studied and polished, and slowly embarked on the road of cultivation.
Jing Fan thought of this, his heart turned out to be slightly cold, and when he looked at the back of Xinli in front of him, his eyes became a little cold.
When no one spoke, time seemed to slow down, low footsteps echoed in the gloomy cavern, and the stone steps seemed to stretch forward and down endlessly.
Jing Fan felt that he had been walking for a long, long time, but the scenery in front of him didn't seem to have changed much, but somehow, looking at this dark passage deep into the ground, Jing Fan always had a terrifying feeling that this was the entrance to the depths of the Netherworld Ghost Realm.
The only thing that had changed was that the faint light in front of them finally began to become clearer and brighter as they continued to descend.
I don't know how long I walked, Jing Fan felt that the air around him suddenly began to become more and more cold, and at the same time, the cold light in front of him suddenly brightened, and then, a strange low and dull sound came.
The voice was like a tide and a wind, majestic but solemn and heavy, just when Jing Fan was shocked and suspicious, Xin Li in front of him suddenly stopped, glanced back at Jing Fan, and said, "We have arrived!"
Jing Fan took a deep breath, hurried a few steps, walked quickly from behind to Xinli's side, and then looked ahead.
At this moment, the cold ice light and shadow have become very bright, because the light source has appeared in front of his eyes, and when the magnificent and grand scene in front of him appears in Jing Fan's eyes, even he can't help but be shocked by it at this moment.
In the depths of this cave buried deep under the glacier, there is indeed no immortal scenery in any human legend, but what it has here is a completely different kind of majestic existence.
I saw that at the end of the blackstone passage, a huge ice palace appeared, which was more appropriate, and an extremely cold breath rushed to the face, accompanied by a rumbling sound.
That was the source of all the cold light, it was a huge statue of ice, standing quietly in the center of the ice palace, the statue was wrapped in a thick layer of ice, and it was impossible to see its true appearance, constantly emitting light.
At this point, the scene in front of him appeared unabashedly as far as Jing Fan's line of sight could see: the ground of the huge ice palace was crisscrossed by glaciers, a few narrow ice surfaces were connected into channels and still exposed, and the rest of the places were all filled with ice and water mixtures, all the ice and water were constantly flowing slowly, as if they were unchanged for eternity.
It is not difficult to imagine how terrible the cold is in the glacier, the entire ice palace is surrounded by this huge glacier, all the glaciers are flowing in one direction, it is under the feet of the huge statue, the cold is permeating.
When the ice river flowed past the huge ice statue, I don't know what kind of strange terrain there was below, and a huge whirlpool appeared, so all the ice and water swirled and roared, and rushed into the whirlpool faster and faster, contrary to the previous slowness.
Countless mixtures of ice and water slammed beneath the hard ice statue's feet, making a thunderous sound, and then finally disappeared into the depths of the whirlpool, as if flowing back into the depths of the earth, the unpredictable place.
"This is the Ice Mound!"
Xinli turned around and shouted loudly at Jing Fan, in this cave, because the sound of the glacier was quite loud, she had to raise her voice.
Jing Fan took a deep breath, and then felt that the cold air in the air seemed to go straight to his lungs, and there was a slight tingling sensation.
His face changed slightly, this kind of realm he had only seen in his life, it was really weird, and then he turned to his heart, and raised his voice and asked him, "Isn't this an ice mound? Why not..."
"Are you trying to ask why there are no graves or coffins?" Jing Fan was interrupted by Xinli in the middle of her words, and she stared at Jing Fan with a smile, as if she had seen through his doubts.
Although Jing Fan was puzzled, he still nodded heavily.
"You'll know over there!" Pointing to the huge ice statue in the distance, Xinli walked forward.
Jing Fan hesitated for a moment, but still walked over with his heart.
The road to the giant ice statue is actually a series of large blocks of ice that emerge from the surface of the glacier, closer to each other, some places can be walked, and some places will have to venture over the ice.
Looking at the slowly flowing but cold and biting glaciers below, Xinli didn't have the slightest fear, and his body was much more flexible than Jing Fan, just like a little monkey, jumping over.
Xinli took the lead and walked forward, Jing Fan followed behind her, walking and jumping on those ice surfaces.
It didn't take long for them to come to a fork in the road, cut off by the glacier, one side of the ice statue was one step away, and the other side separated by the glacier was extended in the other direction of the ice palace.
Just as Jing Fan was about to jump over, he was suddenly pulled by Xinli, Jing Fan looked at her with some surprise, only to see Xinli pointing to the other end and saying, "Go that way." ”
As she spoke, she jumped and jumped onto the ice farther away.
Jing Fan hesitated for a moment, followed over, and then asked Xinli, "Why don't you take a shortcut?"
Xinli also shook his head a little confused, and said, "The rules handed down by the master, here in the ice mound, you can only take this long road, not the shortcut. ”
Jing Fan was silent for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly, and said, "What if you take that shortcut?"
But just when Jing Fan just asked this question, he suddenly realized something, he looked at the place on his wrist that had just been pulled by Xinli, a touch of cold air flashed, and the skin and flesh and bones on his wrist actually had a feeling of being frozen, and when he looked at Xinli's gaze, he became solemn and vigilant.
