Moreover, Zhou Chun felt that even if he could take action, he might not be able to shake the ice sculpture.

So after resting for a while upon returning to Longxing Valley, Zhou Chun went back to the Zhou Family gates to report the situation of the ice cave to Zhou Mingde.

“As Zhengchun said, this matter is indeed out of the ordinary, and I’m afraid that even if I took action personally, I might not be successful!”

Inside the cave dwelling, Zhou Mingde, who had just recovered the essence energy that his body had lost, turned very somber upon hearing what Zhou Chun had to say.

There were too many strange and mysterious things in the Cultivation World, and he also couldn’t explain the ice sculpture and the eerie cry from what Zhou Chun had described.

But he knew that generally, these inexplicable mysteries often concealed no small danger.

...

Therefore, he did not dare to boast recklessly.

At that moment, upon hearing his words, Zhou Chun immediately said, “If you think it’s too dangerous, then let’s not go for now. After all, that place is so remote and in the Wasteland Territory, there’s no need to worry about other people discovering it.”

“Let’s go over and have a look first. After I’ve personally inspected the site, I’ll make a decision.”

Zhou Mingde waved his hand, not showing any sign of retreat.

Then he and Zhou Chun rushed to the Wasteland Territory together.

Two days later, Zhou Chun brought Zhou Mingde back to the ice cave. The two walked straight into the ice cave.

This time, the Bat Demon Beasts still came to harass them, but they were easily disposed of by the two.

It wasn’t long before they passed through the foggy area and the ice passage to reach the ice vault where the ice sculpture was located.

During this time, Zhou Mingde also heard the strange cry, and with his mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivation level, he still could not completely avoid feeling disoriented.

“This is the place. Have a look first,” Zhou Chun said softly inside the ice cave, pointing to the ice sculpture in the Cold Spring.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingde immediately went up close to examine the ice sculpture in detail.

He was a cultivator who practiced the Fire Element Technique and had a mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivation level, so he was more comfortable in this ice cave than Zhou Chun.

Even when approaching the cold eyes of the Cold Spring, he still held up.

However, after circling around the ice sculpture for a good while, he could not discern anything from the outside.

Eventually, he said to Zhou Chun, “Zhengchun, step back a bit. I’ll test it now.”

Hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately retreated into the ice passage they had come through.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Mingde immediately waved his sleeve to produce his commonly used red Flying Sword Talisman, commanding the Flying Sword to stab toward the Cold Spring.

The Flying Sword swiftly descended from the air. In the blink of an eye, it had thrust half its blade into the water.

Then, a layer of blue frost could be seen quickly climbing up the blade.

This turned Zhou Mingde’s expression slightly as he hastily uttered a command to increase the infusion of mana.

In an instant, the red Flying Sword blazed brightly, rapidly melting the frost on its blade and withdrawing from the water’s surface.

Immediately, the sword turned and slashed at the spot where the ice sculpture met the surface of the Cold Spring.

Visible cracks appeared where the Flying Sword struck the ice sculpture, but those cracks swiftly healed under the intensely cold force welling up from the Cold Spring.

After witnessing this, Zhou Mingde raised his hand to recall the Flying Sword back into his hand.

Then he said to Zhou Chun, “If I were to exert my full strength, there would be a fifty percent chance of succeeding in breaking the ice sculpture, but what might happen after it’s broken, I cannot predict!”

After saying that, he looked at Zhou Chun and asked, “What do you think, Zhengchun, should I take action?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun immediately responded without hesitation, “Supreme Elder, you can make the decision. Whatever decision you make, I support you!”

“Very well, then I will give it my all to try!”

Zhou Mingde nodded and immediately slapped his Storage Pouch, producing a red Banner magic artifact.

Brandishing the Banner forcefully, a surge of red flames gushed towards the ice sculpture in the Cold Spring.

However, under the intense cold aura of this place, the flames rapidly diminished after leaving the Banner. By the time it landed on the ice sculpture, its power had reduced to less than a third.

In just a few breaths, the flames were extinguished by the cold emanated from the ice sculpture.

Zhou Mingde saw this, and once again slapped his Spirit Beast Pouch at his waist, releasing the Fire Divine Jackal.

His original intention was to have the Fire Divine Jackal help drive the Demon Fire to support the attack.

But unexpectedly, as soon as the Fire Divine Jackal came out, its legs softened, and it almost knelt to the ground.

After it howled a few times, Zhou Mingde tightly furrowed his brow and put it back into the Spirit Beast Pouch.

Zhou Chun was stunned by this scene and couldn’t help but ask aloud, “Supreme Elder, what’s going on here?”

“The Fire Divine Jackal says it feels an aura inside the ice sculpture that it fears, and it doesn’t dare to strike at the sculpture!”

Zhou Mingde spoke softly, his voice filled with disbelief.

He had not let out the Fire Divine Jackal earlier due to the presence of that strange roar and also saw no need for it.

But what he hadn’t expected was that the Fire Divine Jackal, a third-rank mid-tier Demon Beast, would fear the lifeless ice sculpture so much that it didn’t even dare to strike it!

“Even the Fire Divine Jackal is so fearful of this thing?”

Zhou Chun’s face also changed, finding it unbelievable as well.

He then muttered quietly, “Should we really continue then?”

“Why not? We’ve come this far, if there was any danger with the ice sculpture, it would have already befallen us by now!”

Zhou Mingde said with a firm tone.

His eyes now showed a trace of fervor.

Although he still didn’t understand why such a strange howl was coming from inside the ice sculpture, nor did he know why the Fire Divine Jackal was so afraid of the sculpture.

But he guessed that there must be some kind of treasure inside the body of the man in the ice sculpture.

And a treasure that could make even high-level Demon Beasts fear to approach would be greatly beneficial to a Beast Taming Family like the Zhou Family.

Since Zhou Mingde had encountered it, how could he let it slip by?

He immediately held nothing back, brought out several Magic Artifacts, and launched a full-strength attack on the ice sculpture.

Under his full-strength attack, Zhou Chun’s Embroidered Handkerchief Magic Tool, which had been frozen earlier, was quickly thawed and retrieved.

Soon after, cracks appeared in the ice sculpture under his continuous attacks.

After an unknown duration of attacks, with one sword strike, Zhou Mingde finally broke through the ice sculpture, and the blade landed directly on the man’s shoulder, cutting several inches deep.

But before Zhou Mingde could feel any pleasure from this, a powerful force suddenly burst from the man, instantly shattering all the ice on his body and sending Zhou Mingde and the Zhou Chun behind flying away.

Puh! Puh!

Zhou Mingde and Zhou Chun fell to the ground one after another, simultaneously vomiting a mouthful of fresh blood, their internal organs injured by that powerful impact.

However, at this moment, their attention was no longer on themselves but on the man.

With a flash of white spiritual light, a White Toad flew out from the man’s body and hovered in mid-air.

Then the White Toad opened its mouth and sucked in, swirling the extreme cold air emanating from the ice cave and the Cold Spring towards it, swallowing everything into its body.

After swallowing an unknown amount of extreme cold air, the White Toad looked satisfied, as if it was full, and closed its mouth contentedly.

It then seemed to remember something and suddenly opened its eyes to look at the two Human Cultivators lying on the ground.

Its gaze first fell upon Zhou Mingde.

Then, perhaps because it despised Zhou Mingde for practicing the Fire Element Technique, it showed a look of disgust and promptly shifted its gaze to Zhou Chun.

Zhou Chun, who practiced the Metal Element Cultivation Method, was undoubtedly incompatible with it, but not as repulsive as the Fire Element Technique.

Moreover, it could feel that, although Zhou Chun’s Cultivation Level was not as high as Zhou Mingde’s, his Mana was very pure, and he had much greater potential than Zhou Mingde.

This caused a hesitant look to appear in its eyes.

To be honest, it was not very satisfied with Zhou Chun, whether in terms of Cultivation Level or the nature of the Cultivation Technique.

But it also knew that it didn’t have many choices now.

Compared with Zhou Chun, Zhou Mingde, who practiced the Fire Element Technique, was undoubtedly even less within its selection range.

So, after a brief hesitation, it suddenly rushed toward Zhou Chun!
