Long Bing's expression turned cold, and her voice trembled with anger. "Senior Ice Phoenix was devastated, her hopes of rebirth dashed. She clung to life for a while longer, but without her blood origin, she was a mere shadow of her former self. Eventually, she succumbed to her injuries, her life force extinguished, her spirit fading into the chaos."
"In the end, she used her last bit of power to create this space and fell into a deep slumber beneath Phoenix Lake, waiting for someone to rescue her."
A heavy silence fell between them, the weight of Long Bing's tale hanging in the air. Yun Lintian listened intently, his heart filled with sympathy for the fallen Ice Phoenix.
"But... there is an Ice Phoenix Empress now," Yun Lintian said, his voice laced with confusion. "How is that possible?"
Long Bing fell silent for a moment and said, "She was born from Senior Ice Phoenix's blood origin. That mysterious person must have given it to her."
Yun Lintian nodded slowly. He suspected that it was the so-called Lord of Chaos who did this. "Can you take me to see her?" he asked.
"Of course. You are fully qualified." Long Bing nodded and led Yun Lintian toward the depths of the northern region.
As they ventured deeper, the already brutal environment intensified. The snowstorm raged with a ferocity that threatened to tear them apart, the wind howling like a chorus of lost souls, the icy shards stinging their faces like needles.
The temperature plummeted to unimaginable depths, the air growing thick with a chilling aura that seemed to claw at their very souls.
Even with their combined strength and divine protection, Yun Lintian and Long Bing found themselves struggling against the oppressive forces of the northern region.
The chaotic energy here was denser, more potent, infused with a chilling essence that seemed to defy the laws of nature. It felt as if the very essence of this land was resisting their presence, seeking to consume them, to freeze them into oblivion.
Long Bing, as the guardian of Phoenix Lake, was intimately familiar with the treacherous terrain, guiding them through the blinding snowstorm, navigating the hidden crevasses and ice ridges that threatened to swallow them whole.
Along the way, they encountered numerous God Beasts, creatures of immense power and ferocity, their eyes glowing with an eerie luminescence in the swirling snow. But none dared to approach them, their instincts sensing the combined might of the two Dragon Gods, their fear keeping them at bay.
Long Bing's aura, once cold and imposing, now radiated a gentle warmth, a protective shield that enveloped Yun Lintian, shielding him from the worst of the blizzard's fury.
As they ventured deeper into the heart of the northern region, the snowstorm gradually subsided, the wind dying down, the icy shards softening into gentle flakes. The oppressive silence returned, broken only by the crunch of their footsteps on the frozen ground.
Finally, they arrived at the edge of Phoenix Lake.
The sight that greeted them was breathtaking.
The lake shimmered like a thousand diamonds, its surface reflecting the ethereal glow of the aurora borealis that danced across the night sky. The air was still and silent, the oppressive cold replaced by a serene tranquility that seemed to emanate from the very heart of the lake. Surrounding the lake were towering ice sculptures, their forms intricate and delicate, their surfaces shimmering with an otherworldly light. They seemed to be frozen in time, capturing moments of beauty and grace, their presence adding to the ethereal atmosphere of this sacred place.
Yun Lintian gazed at the scene in awe, his heart filled with a sense of wonder and reverence. He could feel the presence of the Ice Phoenix, her essence lingering in the air, her spirit watching over this frozen sanctuary.
"This is where Senior Ice Phoenix slumbers," Long Bing said.
"Down there?" Yun Lintian asked as he used his spiritual sense to probe the lake's surface. Instantly, he felt as though his entire being was freezing. He had to retract his spiritual sense.
"This is the final trial she set up," Long Bing said. "If you want to see her, you must go down there yourself."
Yun Lintian's expression turned solemn. He was sure that even a Primordial God would find it difficult to reach the bottom of this lake.
He thought for a moment and turned to Gui Xiao. "You two stay here. I'll go down."
Gui Xiao tilted his head slightly and hopped down from Yun Lintian's shoulder with Hei Shou.
Long Bing looked at them for a moment, and her pupils shrank slightly as she immediately recognized Gui Xiao's identity.
"This..." She didn't expect to see a descendant of the Black Turtle God here. She was even more curious about Yun Lintian's background.
Gui Xiao looked at her and said, "Hungry."
Yun Lintian was speechless and quickly handed a storage ring to Long Bing. "There is food inside. Please take care of him."
"All right," Long Bing nodded and quickly took out a few delicacies.
Gui Xiao didn't care about anything and began to eat.
Yun Lintian walked up to the lake and looked down. He couldn't see anything except endless darkness.
He took a deep breath, steeling his nerves, and plunged into the icy depths of Phoenix Lake. The moment he broke the surface, a wave of unimaginable cold washed over him, threatening to freeze him solid in an instant. It was like diving into a sea of liquid nitrogen, the chilling aura seeping into his very bones, his blood turning to ice in his veins.
He gasped, his body instinctively recoiling from the frigid assault. He had faced the harsh cold of the northern region, battled against the icy powers of Long Bing, but this was something else entirely. This was the concentrated essence of the Ice Phoenix, the heart of her frozen domain, a realm of absolute cold that defied the laws of nature.
Yun Lintian felt his divine energy falter, his movements slowing, his senses numbing. He knew that if he succumbed to the cold, he would be frozen forever, another statue in this icy mausoleum.
He gritted his teeth, channeling the power of the Azure Dragon bloodline, his body surging with a warm, life-giving energy that countered the encroaching cold.
Still, the cold seeped into him, threatening to overwhelm him. Yun Lintian reached into his soul, activating the power of the Moon relic and began to dive down...
