"What do we do now?"
With a hint of urgency in his eyes, Tang Mo couldn’t help but ask, "There’s no turning back for us, but... these junior disciples probably won’t be able to hold out for long."
Just as Wang Junze had previously warned, entering this Restriction itself was a huge gamble. The extre cold alone was sothing ordinary Condensing Truth practitioners couldn’t withstand. Even these disciples of the Divine Blade Sect, who had brought considerable talent and strength, couldn’t last long.
After all, using True Qi to resist the cold was akin to drinking poison to quench thirst. Once their True Qi was depleted, death was inevitable.
"Don’t worry, if we can enter, it doesn’t an it’s a dead end."
Shaking his head, Wang Junze gently said, "You can try refining the Ice Crystal just obtained. Perhaps it can resist the extre cold."
At this, Tang Mo’s heart stirred. He imdiately handed the pale blue Crystal Stone that Wang Junze had just given him to one of the junior disciples. In such a situation, the other party naturally didn’t hesitate, directly activating his True Qi to start refining the power within the Crystal Stone.
For a mont, everyone’s attention was inevitably focused on this disciple of the Divine Blade Sect.
In a short mont, the Crystal Stone was rapidly consud by half at a visible speed. At the sa ti, the disciple’s aura gradually stabilized, and his previously pale face regained its color.
It’s effective!
Without even needing to ask, Tang Mo and his companions felt a surge of relief.
Soon, the disciple awakened, handed the remaining Ice Crystal to the person beside him, and said, "Brother Tang, Young Master Wang, this Ice Crystal is indeed effective. Once refined, a trace of cold erges in the ridians, resisting the extre cold, but... this power can’t be completely absorbed and will gradually dissipate over ti."
"Moreover, absorbing too much might cause one’s True Qi to change..."
Regarding this, Wang Junze was unsurprised.
The power contained in the Ice Crystal was unique, different from ordinary Spirit Stones. Truly refining this power wasn’t easy. Either one had a Cultivation Technique that naturally aligned with such cold, or gradually transitioned their body’s True Qi toward such extre cold attributes.
Otherwise, one couldn’t truly absorb this power, only borrowing it temporarily to adapt to the surrounding environnt.
However, regardless, this was at least good news. Otherwise, not to ntion these people from the Divine Blade Sect, even Wang Junze would be affected by long-term exposure to such extre cold.
"Then let’s continue deeper to see if there’s any other way to obtain these Crystals apart from slaying the Ice Crystal Tiger."
Nodding, Wang Junze spoke softly.
Actually, to play it safe, they could wait for the other Divine Blade Sect disciples to absorb so of the Ice Crystal’s power before moving forward. However, Wang Junze didn’t know them well enough to do that. Given the unclear situation, he certainly wouldn’t waste ti here.
The others had to either find a way to keep up, refining on the go, or stay behind and find their own solution.
This might sound a bit cold, but in reality, it was the price for choosing to follow him into this adventure, with no reason to rely entirely on Wang Junze’s help.
Fortunately, these Divine Blade Sect disciples were notably united, helping one another along the way, carrying those who needed to refine the Crystals, and ensuring no one lagged behind.
After almost a quarter hour of walking in the wind and snow, Wang Junze spotted seven or eight Ice Crystal Tigers gathered around an Ice Sculpture in the distance.
The Ice Sculpture wasn’t too large, appearing roughly human-sized. However, the closer they got, the colder the surrounding temperature beca.
As Wang Junze and his group approached, the Ice Crystal Tigers sensed the anomaly, turning their heads sharply, eyes filled with ferocity, and began to growl softly from afar.
Their stance resembled that of guarding food.
"An Ice Crystal?!"
Shock flickered in Tang Mo’s eyes, and he exclaid involuntarily.
At this point, it wasn’t hard for him to deduce that the Ice Sculpture was made from that type of Ice Crystal. Just by being near, one could slowly absorb its power. For these Ice Crystal Tigers, it was akin to feeding.
This was truly astonishing!
Bear in mind, even a small piece of Ice Crystal allowed several disciples to absorb its power, but this sculpture—how big was it?
If they could seize this entire Ice Sculpture, what an imnse fortune it would be!
Refining such Ice Crystals can change the attribute of True Qi. With a substantial amount of Ice Crystals, forcefully altering the attributes of one’s True Qi isn’t out of the question!
What’s more... this is an Ancient Ruins; perhaps there’s even a matching Cultivation Technique to be found here!
The rewards could be trendous!
At that mont, even a hint of greed arose in Tang Mo’s heart. They didn’t need much—just seizing one Ice Sculpture would be a major gain for the Divine Blade Sect this ti.
