Chapter 323.
Roar~!
The half-cleaved Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale roared into the sky. The sound was a mixture of its fury and maniacal laughter. Though it was barely hanging on by a thread, it still mustered the strength for this one last roar—a desperate, final stand!
This human youth he encountered was utterly bizarre. His strength was completely unreasonable—swinging that terrifying axe just seven times in rapid succession had utterly destroyed him without even giving him a moment to react! Wang Feng's seven axe strikes were executed within seconds, not allowing the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale a single breath to counterattack.
The Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale couldn't fathom that, he, one of the five mighty overlords of the inner circle would be defeated so miserably, especially on its own turf!
Even half a year ago, when he fought with that human powerhouse. he wasn't as terrifying as this young man! Back then, it wasn't in the Hanjue Ice Cave but on the outskirts, where its strength was slightly weakened.
Here, in this Hanjue Ice Cave, it was at its strongest! With no significant injuries, it never expected to end up in such a situation.
But unfortunately for it, this young man seems to also had reached his limit. The Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale knew that if there had been one more move, it would have certainly perished without a doubt! However, the enemy was also exhausted. Such a terrifying technique was daunting enough to be used once but this bastard used it seven times in a row!
But now, the mysterious weapon that caused it so much fear and pressure had disappeared.
Finally, it was the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale's turn to retaliate!
Even if there were four soul beasts that weren't weak, Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale was not afraid!
As it roared, the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale suddenly opened its blood-stained mouth. A violent light shot out from within!
As this light burst forth, Wang Feng's heart skipped a beat. An overwhelming sense of danger surged up from deep within!
"A soul core?"
Wang Feng's pupils narrowed slightly.
He recalled that in the second part of the original story, there was a concept of soul master forming soul cores. So, in this current timeline, it was likely that soul beasts possessed soul cores and relied on them for cultivation.
But was that really a soul core?
Seeing the light, Wang Feng was momentarily stunned for a few seconds.
In those few seconds, the four soul beasts that had rushed close to the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale suddenly seemed rooted in place!
Immediately afterward, under the icy blue light, the four soul beasts—Wind Blizzard Crocodile, Bingjira, Thunder Spirit Fox, and Coddley Kun—were rapidly covered in a layer of snow-white ice, almost visible to the naked eye!
The smallest among them, the Wind Blizzard Crocodile and Thunder Spirit Fox, turned into pure white ice sculptures in the blink of an eye! Bingjira, with its larger body, struggled and roared a few times but couldn't break free from the rapidly spreading white profound ice and was quickly frozen.
Even the massive Ice Demon Emperor Kun was quickly frozen under the ice-blue light, unable to break free!
Strange!
Very strange!
All of them were ice-–type soul beasts, and the four soul beasts were also not ordinary ice-type ones either. Even the Wind Blizzard Crocodile, with the weakest bloodline among them, had extreme resistance to ice. How could they be frozen so easily?
"Even disregarding the timeline issue, if it is a soul core, it shouldn't be this powerful!" Wang Feng thought as he took a deep breath.
"Especially Bingjira, among the four, it has the highest resistance to ice element. How could it be frozen? Unless whatever this is far exceeds them in grade!"
The overlord-level beings were truly difficult to deal with, with even hidden trump cards like this!
As Wang Feng watched intently, his eyes caught a flicker of light—at the center of the light was an irregular diamond-shaped crystal. And from the looks of it, the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale didn't seem to have complete control over it.
But with the appearance of this diamond-shaped crystal, the very space around it seemed to freeze, and the energy waves shook violently.
Ho Ho Ho!
The Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale roared furiously at Wang Feng. Its intelligence was already very high. Although it couldn't speak human words, its roar conveyed its thoughts clearly to Wang Feng's mind.
Wang Feng's expression darkened.
This diamond-shaped crystal was clearly something extraordinary, giving the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale the strength to fight back!
The meaning behind the it's roar was simple:
'You're finished! There's no escape! Prepare to die! Hahaha!'
Simultaneously...
"That is the Ice Heart of All Spirits... it's the heart formed after the death of a true ice dragon that cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years or maybe even more! It is precisely because of this Ice Heart that the Hanjue Ice Cave here was born!" Qingqing's voice came again, sounding anxious.
"So that's it..." Wang Feng thought. It was likely a descendant of the Dragon God, one of the elemental true dragon and after its death, had its lifelong cultivation condensed into this 'Ice Heart of All Spirits'. Over time, with the changing of the sun and moon, it formed this Ice Heart of All Spirits. This treasure was comparable to the immovable Ice and Fire Yin Yang Lake!
Moreover, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Lake could not be moved, but this Ice Heart of All Spirit could be, though using it was nearly impossible.
The Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale had swallowed it and barely managed to seal it, hoping to absorb its energy slowly over time. However, it didn't dare to absorb it recklessly. If it could, its current strength would have been even greater! It must have only absorbed small amounts. The rapid recovery from its injuries might be related to this.
This Ice Heart of All Spirit was likely the key to controlling this Hanjue Ice Cave. Unfortunately, the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale couldn't use it properly!
Otherwise, in a place like Hanjue Ice Cave, if the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale could fully utilize the Ice Heart of All Spirit, Wang Feng and his team wouldn't have had such an easy time getting in!
Soon, the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale's body slowly began to freeze, but only the half that was already broken. Its head remained intact, and Wang Feng could see the madness and triumph in its eyes.
Although Wang Feng's body was protected by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, his soul power was nearly exhausted, and a layer of frost slowly began forming on his skin.
Even the Ice-Resistant Cloak was ineffective against the energy emitted by the Ice Heart of All Spirit.
Once frozen, the vitality would drop rapidly, leading slowly but certainly to death!
This wasn't ordinary freezing. Wang Feng could clearly sense the vitality of the four soul beasts diminishing rapidly!
However, the Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale wasn't escaping death either. It had reluctantly forced this thing out and could not withstand the energy radiating from the Ice Heart of All Spirit too. Already on the brink of death, it wouldn't last much longer. Keeping it sealed within its body had allowed it to resist a little longer.
Now, how could he break this situation?
Inside the ice crystal cage, the blue bird watched Wang Feng as her body slowly began to freeze as well. She was farther away than the four other soul beasts, so it wasn't happening as quickly.
Moreover, her bloodline had mutated, giving her some resistance.
Qingqing hadn't expected to meet Wang Feng under such circumstances…
But now…
"If I were still at level 49… I might really be done for here…" Wang Feng thought to himself. "But fortunately, I'm at level 50..."
The Mountain and Sea Ice Dragon Whale seemed to understand and snorted, thinking this human was delusional. What difference did it make whether he was at level 49 or 50?
For ordinary soul masters, there wasn't much difference.
But for Wang Feng, the difference was immense.
That difference was the fifth form of the Chaos Green Lotus!
Wang Feng took a deep breath and slowly spread out his palm. The Chaotic Green Lotus began to bloom gently. Then, as Wang Feng injected a bit of soul power, the lotus rapidly radiated a brilliant light, rising and transforming in mid-air…
Finally, it formed into an ancient, large cauldron, with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and earth engraved upon its body. All kinds of myriad changes in the world were depicted, and it exuded an aura of extreme wonder and ancientness!
It was "The Fifth Form of Chaos Green Lotus: Qiankun Cauldron!"
