Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 174 - 175: Damn! That’s a Huge Ice Pillar!

The ordinary move’s sharp Sword Qi swiftly attacked the ice pillar opposite it. In Chu Linfeng’s mind, it should have been shattered, but things didn’t go as planned.

A two-meter-long Sword Aura was actually blocked when it touched the smooth, mirror-like ice pillar, only leaving some minor traces on it.

"Damn!" Chu Linfeng couldn’t help but curse, this was his most powerful strike, yet he still couldn’t shatter the ice pillar. How was this possible?

Even if it couldn’t be shattered, at least a small piece should have been chopped off, but looking at the ice pillar, it appeared almost pristine, leaving Chu Linfeng extremely frustrated for a moment.

"Xiao Xiao, why did this happen? Didn’t you say that a divine weapon could destroy the ice pillar? Are you deceiving me, deliberately making fun of me?" Chu Linfeng angrily said to the Purple Demon Thunder Fox.

"Haha, big brother, I did say that a divine weapon could do it, but did you use one? You only attacked with Sword Qi, the rusty longsword in your hand didn’t touch the ice pillar at all. Why blame your Xiao Xiao?" The Purple Demon Thunder Fox retorted irritably.

Though seeing Chu Linfeng’s frustrated look was indeed quite funny, it was amazed by his attack power; if this strike had hit something else, it would have shattered.

If it had been hit by this attack, it might have gotten injured too. It couldn’t understand why he had such a powerful attack.

Upon hearing this, Chu Linfeng looked puzzled at the Cyan Frost Sword in his hand, then looked at the Purple Demon Thunder Fox, saying, "Are you serious? You have to touch it to shatter it? Then where did you get the ice crystals before?"

"Big brother, how could Xiao Xiao lie to you? The ice crystals I got were natural, maybe ones the ice pillar itself left behind when it broke. I don’t have the ability to shatter them." The Purple Demon Thunder Fox said with an innocent look on its face.

Chu Linfeng didn’t speak. He carefully examined the ice pillar in front of him and then walked forward, intending to use the Cyan Frost Sword to directly chop it open.

"Big brother, come back, it’s dangerous!" The Purple Demon Thunder Fox cried out in alarm.

Chu Linfeng stopped and turned to ask, "How is it dangerous? Tell me why."

"Big brother, are you really that dense, or are you just pretending? If you cut open this ice pillar directly, the Cold Flame inside will appear instantly, and you will be engulfed by it immediately. What use is the ice crystal if you lose your life?" The Purple Demon Thunder Fox immediately said.

"Oh, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I really forgot, I was just thinking about how to chop open this ice pillar and forgot about the Cold Flame inside." Chu Linfeng said, then walked back.

"Big brother, let’s go back. Golden Fur and sister-in-law must be waiting for us, and they’re certainly worried about us."

Chu Linfeng didn’t speak, thinking about how to break open this ice pillar to get the ice crystals without getting harmed by the Cold Flame. For a while, he couldn’t come up with a good method.

After a while, Chu Linfeng suddenly shouted, "Haha! I remember now, how could I forget this move?"

"What did you figure out? Do you have a way to break it?" The Purple Demon Thunder Fox asked.

"Yes, I once learned a technique of Sword Control with the Heart, but after comprehending Dual Heart Use recently, I forgot the original Heart Sword. Xiao Xiao, watch how I break this ice pillar." Chu Linfeng laughed.

He then stepped back several dozen steps, infused the Chaos Qi into the Cyan Frost Sword, and then used the Heart Sword: the Cyan Frost Sword directly attacked the ice pillar.

With a "bang!", the Cyan Frost Sword was bounced back, but it still hovered in mid-air.

Chu Linfeng saw that the attack actually caused a crack to appear in the ice pillar; although it wasn’t very conspicuous, it indeed was there.

"Haha! It worked! Not bad, let’s keep going!"

Then, after a fifth loud bang, the ice pillar finally shattered, releasing a streak of white mist which drifted away on the Astral Wind and snowflakes in the sky. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

When the white mist appeared, the surrounding temperature dropped sharply, the snowflakes in the air instantly turned into small ice blocks, Chu Linfeng felt cold for the first time, and couldn’t help but shiver.

Meanwhile, the Purple Demon Thunder Fox lay on the ground, trembling, indicating just how fearsome the Cold Flame was, leaving Chu Linfeng surprised.

After about a minute, the white mist completely dissipated, and Chu Linfeng smiled, "Xiao Xiao, look, I did it, am I impressive?"

"Big brother, you are impressive. But if you get another one or two ice crystals, I might be frozen to death, this Cold Flame is unbearable." The Purple Demon Thunder Fox said, shivering.

"Got it, next time you should stand farther away, mainly because you’re too close." Chu Linfeng said as he headed toward the shattered ice pillar.

Inside the shattered ice pillar, Chu Linfeng saw a small white stone about the size of a thumb, emitting a faint glow. He knew this was an ice crystal.

He reached in and picked it up from the crushed ice, instantly feeling a strong chill flow from his hand to his Dantian. "Damn! So cold!" Chu Linfeng exclaimed.

"Lin Feng, quickly refine this Cold Qi that entered your body. Although it is not as formidable as Pure Yin Qi, it will still provide significant benefits." Sword Spirit Yue’er’s voice appeared.

After hearing this, Chu Linfeng placed the bone-chilling ice crystal into the Storage Ring, and then circulated the Chaos Qi within his body to refine it.

After about half an hour, Chu Linfeng stopped, feeling that the chill within had vanished, and the Chaos Qi instead became more robust.

Having acquired the first ice crystal, he would soon have the second, and third. Chu Linfeng found this feeling quite satisfying; as Chaos Qi was consumed, it would replenish instantly, leading to an increase in the Chaos Qi within his body.

The Purple Demon Thunder Fox endeavored to endure the potentially freezing temperature, feeling bitter.

Sima Jingyi and the Golden Demon Vulture were anxiously waiting, the distant rumblings from time to time easing their fears, because it indicated that Chu Linfeng and his team were fine, working hard to break the ice pillar in pursuit of what they needed.

Sima Jingyi, with a purple Light Shield around her body, did not feel cold. Although the Golden Demon Vulture was an Eighth Rank Magical Beast, under the intense snow and strong Astral Wind, it was finding it hard to hold up.

"Boss, how much longer will this take? If it continues like this, I’m going to freeze to death." The Golden Demon Vulture said.

"Why don’t you go down first? I’ll wait for him alone. I believe Lin Feng will be back soon." Sima Jingyi said immediately, but felt powerless to help the Golden Demon Vulture.

"Never mind, Boss told me to stay here to protect you, I won’t leave. This damned Astral Wind is unbearable."

By this time, Chu Linfeng had obtained the eighth ice crystal, and believed it was probably time to go back and check on the Golden Demon Vulture and Jingyi, recognizing the Purple Demon Thunder Fox was reaching its limit against the intensifying cold.

Just as he was preparing to leave, suddenly a dazzling light appeared, and Chu Linfeng exclaimed, "Wow! Such a gigantic ice pillar!"
