Chapter 48: The Ice Cave

  The end of the road of fire pillars is a dark and profound cave.

  After Ling Luoye's meticulous calculation, everyone passed through the road of fire pillars safely and arrived in front of this cave.

  Fear stems from the unknown.

  The dark cave was pitch black, and you couldn't see your fingers when you stretched out your hand. What was inside? Ling Luo Yu and the others didn't know where this cave led to. They had no idea either.

  After finally passing through the fiery pillar road, at the entrance of this cave, everyone hesitated.

  Standing in front of the cave, Ling Luo furrowed his brow and said, "Hong brother, Zhuang brother, where does this cave lead to? Could it be that after passing through this cave, we'll enter that mysterious cultivation realm?"

  Hong Fei let out a chuckle and said, "Ling brothers think it's that easy? If only it were! There must be another hidden mechanism in this cave. Besides, every time we descend to the next level, we're transported through an array. I'm sure entering that mysterious cultivation realm will be no exception!"

  Zhuang Luo nodded at the same time, saying: "Since this is the last level, it must be that it won't be so simple. Besides, although there is Nan Ming Li Huo blocking the way on this floor, I haven't seen any other enemies! There must be some hidden meaning in this!"

  "What does it matter what secrets he has! Since we've already come this far, we basically have no other way to retreat. Our only chance of survival is to make a desperate move!" Mu Yi chimed in.

  "That's right, isn't Ba Zhang already ahead of us? Since nothing has happened to him, we should be fine too!" The others also chimed in and said.

  "Since everyone has no opinion, let's go in!" Hong Fei took the lead and walked into the cave with big strides. Since Hong Fei moved, his entourage also followed closely behind him.

  Zhuang Luo dust solitary figure alone, seeing Hong Fei had already entered, also stepped into the cave without hesitation.

  "Ling Gongzi, let's go too!" Qin Ling'er walked up to Ling Luoyu and asked for his opinion.

  Ling Luo Yu Wang looked at the transmission array surrounded by flames in the distance, seemingly a little reluctant and a little resentful.

  Unfortunately, since Zhuang Lu's dust came in, the light of this transmission array has never brightened again, and that person in my heart has never arrived here.

  "Zi Die! Where are you? Why can't I see your shadow, do you know that someone is worried about you? Someone has shed tears for you!" Ling Luo Yu took one last look at the transmission array and walked into the cave with a heavy heart.

  Just as he approached the entrance of the cave, Ling Luofei suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

  Ling Luo's body was originally a bit thin, and under the invasion of the cold air, she couldn't help but shiver.

  Her gaze swept around, and the Ling Luo feather fluttered down to survey the surroundings. She discovered that the cold air was coming from both sides of the mountain cave. The further she walked forward, the heavier the cold air became.

  At the entrance of the cave, Hong Fei, Zhuang Luo Chen and others were standing there, obviously waiting for Ling Luo Yu's arrival.

  Upon seeing Ling Luoye's appearance, Hong Fei hailed him with a smile and said: "Brother Ling, I didn't expect this cave to be so cold that even I have to circulate my energy to resist it. Can your body withstand it?"

  "Is it really that cold? I don't feel like it." Ling Luo Yu was slightly stunned, although he did indeed feel the cave was extremely chilly, but also not particularly difficult to resist.

  Zhuang Luoshen took a step forward, sighed and said: "I didn't expect that outside the cave was a sea of flames, but in here it's so cold and eerie. I don't know if this strange environment is naturally formed or man-made!"

  "Heh heh, from what I know, the entire Tong Xian's tomb was actually created by those powerful cultivators who have achieved great things through their cultivation. This ice and fire region is also man-made!" Hong Fei let out a laugh, revealing a look of admiration.

  "Really? Those cultivators actually have such great magical powers!" Zhuang Luocheng was shocked, but then again with a few points of delight.

  Hong Fei nodded and said, "Not bad, after passing through this Tianzong tomb, we also have the opportunity to become one of the many cultivators, but I don't know when we will have such magical powers!"

  "Right, let's work hard! Add oil! One day we will make it too!" Zhuang Luoxuan looked at Hong Fei, slightly raised his fist and nodded firmly.

  "I say, Brother Hong, Brother Zhuang! Cultivating whatever it is can wait till later. The most pressing matter at hand is still figuring out how to get through here first!" Ling Luoyu said with a faint smile.

  "Yes, let's talk about it later!" Hong Fei and Zhuang Luo Chen's faces turned slightly red as they glanced at Ling Luo Yu with embarrassment.

  "Let's go! Let's see what's ahead!" Ling Luo Yu took the lead, striding forward with large steps. Hong Fei, Zhuang Luo Chen, Mu Yi and others followed closely behind him.

  The dark cave grew wider and wider as one walked in, except for the increasingly dense cold air, it was eerily quiet, with no one in sight.

  The deeper they went, the paler Hong Fei and Zhuang's faces became, but strangely, Ling Luoyu, who didn't know any martial arts, seemed to be unaffected by the increasingly heavy cold air. On the contrary, Ling Luoyu's originally pale and thin face actually became slightly rosy as the cold air grew thicker.

  "Ling brothers! You shouldn't have practiced any martial arts, right? How come we all have to risk our lives to barely withstand this cold air, while Ling brother is effortlessly calm, as if nothing's wrong?" Finally, Zhuang Ludian couldn't help but ask.

  "Is it! Brother Ling, isn't there something on your body that can ward off the cold?" Hong Fei also joked.

  Ling Luo's feathers fluttered as he chuckled and said, "Brother Hong, Brother Zhuang, what treasure do I have? In fact, I don't even know what's going on myself. All I know is that the further down we go, the warmer my body feels, and I haven't felt any chill at all!"

  "How can this be! Is it that Brother Ling is gifted with a special endowment? He doesn't seem to fear the cold air at all!" Hong Fei and Zhuang Zuo were both shocked, exchanging glances.

  Ling Luo shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying: "What talent is there on me? There's only a terminal illness!"

  Seeing Ling Luoyu's desolate and miserable eyes, Hong Feizhuang stopped asking further, after all, this was Ling Luoyu's private matter, if he didn't want to say it, the two naturally wouldn't force him.

  "Look, it should be the exit up ahead!"

  Not far away, a ray of light shines through the exit of the cave, dazzling and eye-catching.

  The crowd, who were walking normally, suddenly became alert. The sudden appearance of the cave exit was clearly beyond everyone's expectations, as no one had expected that this icy cave would pass through so easily.

  Zhuang Lu's left foot lightly touched the ground, and his whole body was like an arrow off the string, shooting rapidly towards the cave entrance.

  Just as Zhuang Luchen was about to pass through the exit, his figure suddenly stopped and then quickly retreated several feet, staring at the front in shock, as if there was something unthinkable in front of him.
