The two stood on the shore, looking at the water below their feet, not daring to take a step forward.
"I didn't expect that this secret place is quite mysterious. There is also a hot spring in the land of ice and snow.
It’s similar to the ice cave we have at the foot of Maoshan Mountain.”
Xiao Yu stood at the water's edge, looking directly at the water below, as if he wanted to penetrate this area.
"This ice palace floats on the hot springs and has not melted for nearly five thousand years. It is indeed unusual.
The surrounding heaven and earth replenish the power of ice and cold, and the water below replenishes the power of yang and fire. Doesn't this cold and heat correspond to one yin and one yang?"
The ghost corpse smiled.
This place is indeed arranged according to the cycle of heaven and earth, one yin and one yang.
However, the yang is obviously declining and the yin is exuberant here. Otherwise, why would the hot spring water be kept under pressure?
"This hot spring is probably not naturally formed. After all, it is in a secret realm. There must be extremely precious fire spring stones underneath.
Otherwise, no stone can provide heat for such a long time."
Xiao Yu said, and with a movement of his hand, more than a dozen bone rotting insects flew out of his hand and flew towards the ice palace in the distance.
However, as soon as those rotten bone insects flew five or six meters away, they were suddenly burned into nothingness by the flames bursting out from the water below.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Yu and the others were not much surprised. They just continued to release more bone rot worms and approached the ice sculpture from all directions.
This time, just like before, all the carrion worms were still burned.
After testing five or six times in a row, Xiao Yu and the two were surprised to find that if they put the bone rot insects into the water and let them approach the ice pad from the water, they would not be burned by the flames.
"It seems that if you want to climb the ice palace, you must first clear away the fire spring rocks below."
After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he flicked his fingers, and a flame flew out of his body, turning into a fire snake and entering the scalding hot water below.
However, the moment the flames entered the water below, the water around the ice palace began to boil violently like boiling water.
The flame controlled by Xiao Yu was directly swallowed by the fire spring stone below as soon as it entered the water.
Immediately afterwards, the ice and snow began to melt at the feet of Xiao Yu and the others, and the hot water began to corrode the ground like sulfuric acid.
Xiao Yu and the two quickly retreated, and the surrounding fog began to rise rapidly. In just a few breaths, the surroundings were completely covered.
"Go up there..."
Xiao Yu patted the ghost corpse, and then with a sway of his body, he flew high into the sky.
Standing in mid-air, Xiao Yu looked down, and then they were surprised to find that the place where the hot water spread was actually like a crescent moon.
On the other side, the ice palace on the huge lake was also separated from the original ten thousand-year black ice, and it was also in the shape of a crescent.
“The interaction of yin and yang creates the first formation of heaven and earth.
Water and fire intersect, agility breaks the spirit.
It seems that this hot spring is the first step to activate the formation, and we were all wrong!"
The hot spring spread forward at an extremely fast speed, and when it approached an icicle, it began to slowly shrink, and the icicle became the eye of the anode.
"The ghost corpse broke the icicle."
"good……"
The ghost corpse waved his hand, and the corpse energy surged out, turning into a sledgehammer, falling from the sky, and falling towards the icicle at an extremely fast speed.
But at this moment, the icicles suddenly emitted infinite icy power, and the sledgehammer condensed by the ghost corpse was also frozen in the air by that icy power.
"It's kind of interesting, I actually used my cultivation to set an immortal treasure here."
The ghost corpse looked at the icicle and sneered.
Immortal treasures are things used by immortals and are always with them. They are much stronger than the magic weapons used by ordinary Taoists.
Generally, fairy treasures are left behind by immortals when they die, and some will be added to the magic circle to enhance the power of the magic circle.
The sledgehammer with the corpse energy condensed began to shrink slowly under the suppression of the cold force, as if it would dissipate soon.
"break……"
The ghost corpse took action again, and the corpse energy rushed out suddenly, shattering all the ice blades on the sledgehammer.
Immediately afterwards, the corpse energy sledgehammer grew in size again, and suddenly fell down under Xiao Yu's gaze, directly hitting the ten-thousand-year-old black ice.
Only a roar was heard, and the ground below suddenly trembled. The ten thousand-year black ice stone pillar made a clicking sound, and then shattered, revealing a black iron rod inside.
The iron rod was inserted into the ground like a javelin, with many auspicious cloud patterns and various runes carved on it.
The moment the black iron rod appeared, a powerful wave of air rushed out from above and collided with the ghost corpse's sledgehammer.
With just such a touch, the sledgehammer transformed from corpse energy suddenly dissipated, and the ghost corpse felt as if it had been hit hard, and a mouthful of corpse blood immediately spurted out.
"Old Chen..."
Seeing the ghost corpse vomiting blood, Xiao Yu grabbed the opponent and quickly retreated. At the same time, the mountain inkstone in his hand flew out and blocked the two of them.
Buzz…
The moment the two of them retreated, the black iron rod below suddenly buzzed, and then the hot spring that originally retreated rose again.
Not only that, the originally clear hot spring began to turn red, and after the black iron rod hit the red hot spring, it began to grow rapidly and rotate at an extremely fast speed.
The black iron rod rotated, causing the hot spring to rotate accordingly. Even the ice palace began to steam up at this time, and the ice water above seemed to begin to melt.
"Xiao Yu, just one magic weapon is so powerful, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat it!"
The ghost corpse pressed his chest and said with a somewhat pale face.
Xiao Yu also knew that the force just now caused the ghost corpse to be seriously injured, and there might be something even more terrifying waiting for them in the ice palace.
"Look and step back, the Yin Yang Tai Chi here is indeed extraordinary.
It's a pity that we are only one step away from success. You rest first and I will try other methods."
Xiao Yu protected the ghost corpse behind him, and at the same time, five Buddhas appeared one after another, turning his surroundings into a golden ocean for a while, as if he had arrived in a Buddhist country.
After doing this, Xiao Yu didn't stop. He took out several soul magic balls with his backhand and crushed them one after another around him, and then all the essence of soul power poured into his body.
"Xiao Yu, don't be reckless, you are no match for that thing."
Seeing Xiao Yu's desperate look, the ghost corpse immediately stopped him.
"Don't panic, we were able to escape unscathed when we faced the Ghost Emperor, and we can do it this time too.
And now that we have entered the secret realm, if we cannot enter the ice palace smoothly, we may not be able to leave here!
At least there are still a few immortal stones, so it’s not without gain.”
Xiao Yu held the Qiankun Fan in his hand, and the power of the Immortal Buddha in his body was at its peak, preparing to give the black Immortal Treasure a heavy blow.
"Okay, we two brothers will come to gamble today. Even if we are trapped, we will stay here together."
The Holy King's Bow appears in the ghost's hand. This is his most powerful weapon now. If the Immortal Treasure cannot be dislocated this time and the formation base with the Immortal Treasure is formed, they will only stare blankly.
"Okay, if I say do it, do it."
Xiao Yu stepped on the void, weighed the Qiankun Fan in his hand, put it away, and then held the Shanhe Inkstone in his hand.
Although he didn't know what the Shanhe Inkstone was used for, Xiao Yu knew that it was definitely not a mortal object, and it was also the most powerful protective object in his hand.
