The incantation stirred.
The Vast Cold Pearl shot into the sky, releasing boundless moonlight that illuminated heaven and earth, turning everything into a vast expanse of frost and snow.
The two women had just raised the gourd and Glass Bottle in their hands when the moonlight shone upon them. In an instant, frost and snow covered them and their possessions, turning them into ice statues frozen in place.
The Purple Robe man's expression changed. He cried out, "So it's a prehistoric treasure—"
Before he could finish, the moonlight had already reached him, instantly covering his entire body.
The Purple Robe man struggled, but could barely move.
He shook his head. "I never expected a mere Qi Refining cultivator to possess a prehistoric treasure. I was careless this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, he too turned into an ice statue, hanging motionless in the sky.
Only then did the Vast Cold Pearl slowly descend, and Gu Qingshan caught it in his hand.
Gu Qingshan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Beside him, Ning Yuechan couldn't help saying, "Luckily, we have this treasure. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to stand against those three, given their strength."
Gongsun Zhi stepped forward to stand shoulder to shoulder with them. "Their cultivation is truly profound—far beyond the Saint Sealing Realm."
Ning Yuechan and he exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes.
Gu Qingshan, meanwhile, kept his eyes fixed on the three people in midair.
Although he had lost all his strength, his instincts remained. They were countless times sharper than Gongsun Zhi's and Ning Yuechan's.
"You two, be careful. I have a feeling this isn't over yet... Mr. Gongsun, please set up a few more defensive formations. Anything that can buy us time will help."
Gu Qingshan said.
