Chapter 45 : The Girl in the Ice Prison
"After a hundred years, you're finally willing to come!"
Wu Xuan had just pushed open the door when he heard a shout from inside. Echoes came from all around, which stunned him. It was obvious that this voice was a female voice.
But what happened after a hundred years? Is there a thousand-year-old demon here?
There was no need to guess. The scene in front of him told him that there was a huge ice prison in front of him. A beautiful girl was locked inside. She was wearing a thin red dress. Not only was she wearing red clothes, but her beautiful red eyes and fiery red hair were also there!
The only part of her body that wasn't red was her skin. Her fair skin contrasted with her fiery red. Under her thin dress, her perfect body was hooked. It was really hot to the extreme.
The girl's red eyes looked here. When her angry gaze saw Wu Xuan, it instantly disappeared. Instead, she asked curiously," Who are you?"
" Me? I came in unintentionally. I wonder if there's an exit here? It's full of demonic beasts outside. I can't get out." Wu Xuan recovered from his shock and looked around. His expression changed slightly.
There was no need for the girl in front of him to answer because there was no other exit in this room other than the ice prison in front of him. In other words, the only exit was the one outside!
" Did you accidentally enter from outside? Can you pass through that restriction outside?" The girl was very surprised. It turned out that she was sitting on the ground. She couldn't help but stand up anxiously. However, she seemed to have no strength and fell back down.
" Is that barrier outside a restriction? I don't know. Anyway, I came in. Now I just want to find an intersection to get out." Wu Xuan sighed. It seemed that there was no second exit here.
" You accidentally came in? Haha, I didn't expect that the restrictions set up by that b * tch would be ineffective one day!" The girl laughed, but her face was still filled with indescribable loneliness." So what if you came in? Your cultivation is so poor, but you can't help me at all, and you can't destroy this ice prison."
The girl no longer had any hostility towards Wu Xuan, as if she already knew who could enter this place.
" Destroy this ice prison?" Wu Xuan reached out and knocked on these ice pillars. He reached out and punched them hard. With a crack, he sucked in a breath of cold air in pain. This ice strip that looked two fingers wide was actually so hard!
He had used at least half of his full strength in that punch earlier. Who knew that not only was it not broken, but he had almost been injured.
The girl inside sighed and said," Don't waste your time. How can this ice prison be broken so easily? At least one must be at the Spirit King Stage to break through it. The restrictions outside can't even be broken through at the Spirit King Stage. You, a mere Body Refining Stage cultivator, are able to enter. It's really too happy."
As she spoke, she smiled again, but her eyes were filled with disappointment.
Wu Xuan was speechless. This was definitely a scam! This ice prison required at least the Spirit King Stage. Speaking of which, he had not fully experienced what cultivation was at the Void Spirit Stage. To break this cultivation, one needed the Spirit King Stage. What was the identity of this locked girl?
However, the restrictions outside couldn't even enter the Spirit King Stage. No wonder Niu Jing couldn't come. So many demonic beasts were beating crazily, but it was useless. He couldn't enter at all.
Although he could leave without any obstacles, there were demonic beasts outside, so how could he leave?
The girl seemed to have seen through Wu Xuan's thoughts and said casually," The demonic beast outside is the Desolate Bull guarding this Ice Palace. It has completely sensed the situation in and out of this place, so you won't have a chance to go out unless you can deal with it. However, it will also summon the demonic beasts in this forest. With your low cultivation level, you can't take half a step out, so it's best to give up on this plan."
Wild cattle?
Wu Xuan's eyes flickered as he slowly sat down. Since he could not leave, he could only stay here obediently.
The girl seemed to feel very tired. She casually walked over to the ice and slowly said," Every twenty years, I can wake up for a month. This month is when the fog outside is at its weakest. As long as I break this ice prison, the fog outside will disappear. After a month, I was shocked by this restriction and fell into a deep sleep…No wonder you guys were able to come in. Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, and there is another month for me to wake up."
Wu Xuan was shocked by this girl's words again. This girl's words were shocking! It turned out that the white fog formed in the Illusory Spirit Forest was all to suppress this girl!
What kind of identity was this girl?
" Yes, we came in to cultivate and accidentally provoked that wild ox. I happened to come in as well." Wu Xuan sighed. Everything was fate, but this fate seemed to want him to stay here until he died?
" To cultivate? That's right. The spiritual energy here is very dense. Due to the restriction, it can even increase the soul energy in this month…However, after a month, it will directly crush the soul of ordinary people. If the soul energy is too weak, they will die here…"
" I guess you're no exception. If you can't get out, you can only live here for a month. Moreover, the soul energy suppression here is the most terrifying. You probably won't even be able to react before you die…"
The girl smiled casually, but her face was extremely lonely. It was not easy for someone to come, but it was a pity that he could not save her. Moreover, he had to watch helplessly as he died.
Wu Xuan swallowed. No wonder those who entered did not survive. It turned out that they were not lost, but all of them exploded with soul energy. Only when they were at their weakest could they withstand and absorb it.
The Ice Palace he was in seemed to be the suppression point of the entire Illusory Spirit Forest. Wouldn't it be much more terrifying than the outside world? At that time, it would really be like what this girl said, and his soul would dissipate in the blink of an eye.
Death wasn't scary. What was scary was how cowardly he was when he died.
Wu Xuan sighed again. It seemed that he would definitely be able to reincarnate again this time. He hoped that he would have something ordinary next time and not something so difficult!
" Since you're already here, why don't you tell me your name? What's your name?"
" Well, sister, just call me Wu Xuan. What's your name, sister?" Wu Xuan replied casually.
" Wu Xuan? Sister? You call me sister?" The girl covered her mouth and laughed. It echoed in the room like a silver bell. It seemed that she had never been so happy before. After a while, she stopped and said," Do you know how old I am this year? You actually call me sister?"
" It doesn't matter how old you are. You're so young. If you're not a girl, what are you?" Wu Xuan had an indescribable ease. It was not bad to chat with this girl before he died. There was no need to mention age. No matter how old you were, you were still a girl.
" You're really interesting, but you're right. To us, a few hundred years old is just the beginning of adulthood..." The girl laughed and cried. She then looked at him and said," Remember, my name is Huo Lingxin!"
