After hesitating for a moment, Xu Chunniang stepped forward, took the jade box closest to her, and activated the thunder talisman seal that sealed the jade box.
The moment the thunder talisman was activated, a burst of white light flashed and her figure disappeared into the hall.
After her figure disappeared, the remaining eight jade boxes, together with the thunder talismans on them, disappeared.
Xu Chunniang had just activated the thunder talisman and before she could open the jade box, she shuddered subconsciously.
Cold, bone-deep cold.
She even felt her breath turning into frost and snow, and the cold was coming from all directions and pervasively.
Under the erosion of this severe cold, even the blood and spiritual energy in her body were obviously stagnant, and their circulation became slower and more difficult.
Originally, as a foundation-building monk, Xu Chunniang had spiritual energy to protect her body, so she should not be afraid of the cold and heat. But now she was in the glacier and snowy mountains, and she actually felt the long-lost chill.
Soon, her eyelashes were covered with white frost, and her face turned pale from the cold.
Xu Chunniang used spiritual energy to protect her whole body, but she could barely resist the cold erosion.
Moreover, in this state, the spiritual energy in her body is extremely consumed, and she can last for several days at most.
Is this the real trial of the seventh level?
Xu Chunniang looked down at the jade box in her hand and opened it, but it was empty, with nothing inside.
She put away the jade box and looked around, with a solemn look on her face.
At a glance, the surrounding area is a vast expanse of white, with no visible edge of glaciers and snow.
The soles of the feet are covered with years of ice that is several feet deep. This is an extremely cold place.
Xu Chunniang's expression became more and more solemn. In such an extreme environment, if her spiritual energy is exhausted, there is only one way out.
There is plenty of spiritual energy around, but these spiritual energy are all ice spiritual energy, which is bone-chilling, so I'm afraid it won't be absorbed smoothly.
She tried a little and carefully absorbed the ice aura around her.
But it didn't take long for the ice spiritual energy that entered the body to freeze the spiritual veins.
In desperation, she stopped absorbing the ice spiritual energy, and then her spiritual veins became smooth again.
But without spiritual energy supplementation, she couldn't last long just relying on the spiritual energy in her body for support.
Xu Chunniang thought for a while and decided to find a cave to avoid first.
If you find a dry and warm cave, you might be able to survive longer.
As she walked with her sword and looked far into the distance, she actually found a cave.
But after scanning the cave with his spiritual consciousness, he found that there was accumulated ice everywhere inside, and it was as cold as the outside.
Perhaps there is no place for shelter in this extremely cold place.
Xu Chunniang was about to withdraw her consciousness from the cave when she suddenly noticed something and looked into a crack in the corner.
After finding out what was going on in the crack, her pupils shrank slightly.
In such an extremely cold place, there is still life, and it is such a fragile ant that will die if it touches it.
She headed towards the cave without hesitation, entered this natural cave, and came to the crack.
The ants were unaware of her arrival and were still busy in their world.
Xu Chunniang did not disturb them, but popped out her spiritual consciousness and extended towards it along the cracks.
The space under the crack was much wider than she imagined.
In addition to the larger number of ants, there is also a kind of green moss growing deeper in the dark places.
This group of ants survived by feeding on the moss.
She leaned down and placed her hand between the cracks. Not long after, an ant crawled into her palm.
The ant quickly realized the changes in its surrounding environment and started spinning anxiously in her palm.
It wasn't until an extremely weak thread of spiritual energy immobilized it that it calmed down.
Not long after, Xu Chunniang withdrew the spiritual energy thread and put her hand close to the ground again.
The ants hurriedly crawled to the ground along her hand, and soon disappeared into the crack.
A look of thought flashed in Xu Chunniang's eyes. Whether it was moss or ants, they were just ordinary things. Not only did they not practice cultivation, they were also the lowest existence in the world.
But they are so weak and can survive in this extremely cold fantasy world. Why is this?
Logically speaking, they should be frozen to death when blown by the cold wind.
But neither the ants nor the moss seemed to be affected by the surrounding environment.
Is it because they have lived here for a long time and have already adapted to this extreme cold?
A trace of hesitation flashed in Xu Chunniang's eyes, and then turned into determination, stopping the circulation of spiritual energy around her body.
The moment she gave up resisting the coldness around her, her body temperature dropped instantly.
It didn't take long for hoarfrost to form on the eyelashes again, and the blood and spiritual energy in the body became stagnant again.
Even the breath he inhaled was filled with a biting chill.
Xu Chunniang tried her best to ignore her physical discomfort, sat down cross-legged, and tried to absorb the ice spiritual energy into her body.
This ice spiritual energy has a cold meaning, and once it enters the spiritual veins, it freezes the spiritual veins.
The spiritual energy that was originally running slowly now runs even slower.
Xu Chunniang gritted her teeth and not only did she not stop, she even increased her efforts to absorb the ice spirit energy.
Soon, the large influx of ice spiritual energy froze more spiritual veins, and the spiritual energy became completely stagnant.
These ice spiritual energy entered the Dantian, and the operation of the Xiaoyao Jue technique became extremely difficult.
The golden platform in Dantian was even covered with a thick layer of frost.
As the ice aura in Xu Chunniang's body increased, her body temperature dropped faster and she began to tremble uncontrollably.
Even after the ice spiritual energy entered the soul, consciousness became much slower due to the extreme cold.
A thin layer of ice formed on her body from the inside out. From a distance, it looked like a lifeless ice and snow statue.
If he continues like this, he may die at any time.
After feeling that the ice aura her body could hold had reached its limit, Xu Chunniang finally stopped absorbing it and began to circulate the aura throughout her body to keep out the cold.
Due to the freezing and stagnation of Dantian and spiritual veins, the spiritual energy that could have been easily mobilized had to be managed with great effort.
This trace of spiritual energy slowly traveled around her body, and was frozen soon after.
Xu Chunniang frowned slightly and began to mobilize another trace of spiritual energy...
As time went by, the layer of ice on Xu Chunniang's body became thicker and thicker.
At first there was only a layer as thin as a jade slip, but at the back it was already a foot deep and looked like a lifeless ice ball.
Xu Chunniang, who was surrounded by ice hockey, was still trying hard to activate the spiritual energy in her body.
The cold made her body lose consciousness and her consciousness became numb.
But even in such a situation, she never stopped the circulation of spiritual energy, and she never doubted her judgment.
