Mu Chen and the others were just about to leave, but they were just seen and recognized.

"Thank you, for our Ice City. "People sincerely thank Mu Chen and the four people.

Mu Chen didn't answer, just smiled at them and left. The bully provoked Mu Chen and them, and punishing the bully was originally what Mu Chen and they had to do, and the people of Ice and Snow City didn't need to thank them.

Out of the Ice and Snow City, Mu Chen and the four of them bought a car and went to Xinji Ice Lake.

Ice and Snow City is more than a hundred kilometers away from the Xinji Ice Lake, and the further you go into the Linghan Continent, the colder it becomes. Mu Chen felt that it would be much easier and warmer for them to drive there after buying a car than rushing outside.

And there were no people on the way out of the city, and there was no traffic control at all. The snow is so wide that you can drive it however you want, and no one will stop you to check your documents.

In the past, Mu Chen often took the car, watched Li Dongyi drive, and was stopped for the first time because he was speeding without documents. Mu Chen had already had itchy hands and wanted to try what it felt like to drive again, and this was the time to realize his wish.

"You can drive slowly!" said Jie Shili in the passenger seat. Among the thousands of people in this car, he was a little younger, and he still knew a little about this, so he took on the heavy responsibility of the commander and reminded Mu Chen in time.

"Let's go!"

The snow was slippery, and Mu Chen didn't dare to drive too fast, so he could only keep driving at a constant speed. But fortunately, there were no people or cars along the way, and it was safe to drive. On the white earth, they were the only ones driving.

When it got dark, the four of them slept in the car, covered with a few thick quilts, which was also considered warm, much better than camping outside.

Two days later, the vehicle slowly drove into the edge of the New Age Glacier Lake, a forbidden no-man's land. Because there is a lot of dark ice under this ice lake, as long as people step on it, they will fall down.

In the past, this new glacial lake was rich in fish, which could meet the needs of the ice and snow city, and could also be sold in large quantities to other places. As a result, almost all the people in the Ice and Snow City have become fishermen, and they have to travel thousands of miles for three days and two nights to come here to dig the ice lake to fish.

Because of this, the ice is getting thinner and the lakes are becoming more and more fragile. As if to punish these greedy people, a lot of dark ice has grown under the glacial lake. During that time, people who went to the glacial lake to fish fell into the lake and lost their lives.

The people in Ice City thought that the water monsters in the lake were angry, and those who fell were eaten by the water monsters.

At this point, the people of Ice City no longer dare to fish here. After the main source of income was cut off, they developed tourism projects such as the Ice and Snow Festival, and the area of the New Era Glacier Lake became a no-man's land and a terrifying legend.

Mu Chen and the four got out of the car in front of the ice lake, and they couldn't drive over if they wanted to cross the ice lake. But if you cast a spell and fly over, it's not realistic. Because this ice lake stretches for hundreds of kilometers, it is impossible to consume too much spiritual power on it.

And Mu Chen remembered the agreement with the mysterious man in the dream to increase his spiritual power to three times the original amount within a week. It's been four days now, and there are only three days left. These days, Muchen has devoted himself to cultivation whenever he has time, but he has only grown one percent.

So he couldn't consume too much spiritual power to fly over the ice lake now, he was afraid that the mysterious man would be disappointed in him.

So Mu Chen and the four of them could only take the risk of stepping on the ice.

The four of them were connected by a rope, and Yao Si walked in the front. Among them, Yao Si was the strongest, and if she stepped on the air, she could immediately pull the remaining three people into flight. If the person behind is empty, she can also help in time, which is the safest way.

"Alright, you all hold on to the rope and follow me closely. After Yao Si finished speaking, he took the first step and stepped on the surface of the ice lake.

Mu Chen stepped on it closely, and although he was wearing thick-soled snow boots on his feet, he still felt the coldness coming from the soles of his feet.

"It's really a thousand-year-old ice, it's too cold!" Mu Chen couldn't help but shudder.

Breaking away from Mu Chen and said, "Didn't you say that no one has been here in the ice lake for thousands of years? I think this ice should be very strong, and those dark ices have already become hard." ”

"It's possible, but we'd better be careful. Bai Chen, who walked at the end, said.

"What Bai Chen said is," Mu Chen continued, "At our current rate, it may take about three days to reach the other side of the lake. So we have to be careful, remember not to be reckless, and save our strength. ”

The four of them walked on the ice for two days, and when they were tired, they stopped and rested for a while, and when they were hungry, they could only eat some quick food that could fill their stomachs, and when they were sleepy, they could only stand in place and squint for a while. After resting, they continued to walk forward, but they did not dare to make much movement on the ice, so they persevered for two days and two nights.

By the third day, it was not far from the finish line.

"Come on, fifteen kilometers to go. When you get to the other side, I'll treat you to something delicious!" Mu Chen endured the cold and encouraged everyone.

But at this moment, the sky suddenly began to fall with goose feathers. Large flakes of snow fall on the ice and solidify into a small blooming flower. When it falls on the human skin, it immediately dissolves, leaving only a trace of coldness.

Bai Chen looked at the increasingly dense snow and said, "Why is it snowing?" Let's hurry up, the ice will slip for a while. ”

The four of them continued to move forward, but they didn't take a few steps before Yao Si, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped.

"Listen, there's movement under this lake!"

Mu Chen and the three of them stopped and put their ears on the surface of the lake, listening carefully, but they didn't hear any sound at all.

"Maybe it's the fish in the lake or something, let's go quickly, the snow is getting heavier and heavier." ”

But Yao Si was still staring at the lake, and her expression became serious. She felt a behemoth moving beneath the ice, and it was still approaching them.

When Mu Chen and the others saw Yao Si being so serious, they knew that she was not joking, so they immediately stood still in place. They all watched the lake closely, not daring to take it lightly.

"What do you feel?" asked Mu Chen.

Yao Si replied in a low voice, "There is some kind of creature approaching us, but I can only feel some breath, and I can't judge its strength yet." ”

"We hold on to the rope and don't let go. ”

The four of them stared nervously at the surface of the water as the snow became heavier and heavier. In less than a moment, it covered the ice, making it difficult to see what was underneath the ice.

"I think we should keep going, and be careful as we go, we can't just stand here and wait for it to come. Break Away suggested again.

This time, Mu Chen didn't dare to answer casually, and looked at Yao Si to ask for her opinion.

They had been standing in place for more than ten minutes, and it was very easy to be frozen in this ice and snow without moving, so Yao Si had no choice but to nod and decide to go forward first. It would be nice to pay more attention to the safety of your feet.

"Well, let's go first, let's all go lighter. ”

The four of them continued to move forward, but at this moment no one spoke, and all of them held their breath and walked cautiously, listening carefully to the movement below the frozen lake.

At this moment, Yao Si suddenly turned around and shouted, "Oh no!

But Yao Si was still a step too late, and before Mu Chen and the three of them could react, the ice under his feet instantly collapsed. But he grabbed the rope and was pulled up.

Immediately afterward, the ice beneath their feet collapsed one after another.

"Fly up!" Yao Si grabbed the rope and flew into the air first.

Mu Chen and the three followed, and when the four of them flew into the air, they looked down and saw that the ice had broken by more than half, revealing the azure lake.

Yao Si looked at the lake and told Mu Chen and the three of them very seriously: "That thing is in the lake, and it is very strong, we must be careful." ”

"Look, is that thing? Could it be a whale?" Bai Chen suddenly saw something, and pointed down in shock to let them see,

Mu Chen looked in the direction of Bai Chen's finger, and saw that there was a shadow moving under the water, and it was huge. The exposed lake is only more than ten meters long, and the head and tail of the swimming thing are obscured by ice, so it is not clear to see. All you can see is its body swaying in the water, and there are fins on the left and right sides.

"It looks like a fish. ”

"Shhhhh

As soon as Yao Si's words fell, the ice surface was suddenly exploded by a powerful force below, and the ice ballast splashed. At the same time, a behemoth jumped out of the water, jumped up with a bloody mouth and wanted to eat Mu Chen and the four of them.

"Be careful!"

Yao Si roared and dragged the rope to the side, and the creature that suddenly jumped out jumped into the air and got into the water.

"Thank you!" Mu Chen and the others thanked Yao Si.

Just now, if Yao Si hadn't reacted quickly and pulled them in time, it is estimated that they would all have been swallowed in their stomachs.

Yao Si shook her head, indicating that you are welcome. She continued, "Now we cast spells to fly, but everyone needs to keep an eye in one direction and let me know as soon as there's any movement. ”

Anyway, it is still more than ten kilometers away from the other side of the new ice lake, and they can fly for ten minutes to get there, which is better than standing here.

When the thing suddenly came out just now, Mu Chen didn't see what it looked like, and it returned to the water. All I could see was a mouth full of fangs and a disgusting smell of rot.

But Mu Chen could still feel how terrifying the strength of this unknown creature was, and even Yao Si stared at the lake intently, looking nervous and serious. Even Yao Si was so cautious, Mu Chen knew that they were annoyed again this time.
