Like an Ice Shadow

[System Notification: Congratulations to the host for receiving the mission reward, Domain of Death]

Chen Tong frowned, "System, what is the Domain of Death?"

[System Notification: Replying to the host, the Domain of Death is a type of Domain of the Heavenly Dao. When the Domain is activated, you can ignore death, and you can summon all Death Qi in the world. Your strength can be increased by three times based on your current foundation.]

Chen Tong's eyebrows twitched, "Holy crap! I can ignore death? System, you're not trying to trick me, are you?"

Chen Tong's teasing did not elicit a response from the System. Instead, a black light entered his mind. He assumed this was the Domain of Death.

Chen Tong pondered for a moment, then willed it. The Domain of Death activated instantly, and streams of white light emanated from his body. The originally dim sea area was immediately transformed into a world of pure white.

The Death Underworld Dragon stared blankly at the scene, not understanding what was happening! "L... Lord, what... what in the world is happening?"

Chen Tong carefully felt the changes in his body. With the Domain of Death activated, he no longer felt the oppressive sense of death from before, and his body didn't feel uncomfortable anymore! Moreover, his strength was no longer restricted. With this alone, the Sea of Death would be no different from any other sea area to him in the future.

Suppressing his inner excitement, Chen Tong felt reborn. His entire aura immediately shifted to one of arrogant condescension, looking down on everything!

"Stupid dragon, since you've submitted to me, you still need to have a soul imprint. You have no objections to this, right!"

The Death Underworld Dragon shook its head, "You just need to remember our agreement."

"Good!" Chen Tong didn't waste any more words. A beam of soul light shot into the Death Underworld Dragon's mind! From then on, the Death Underworld Dragon's life was bound to Chen Tong's. It could be said that as long as Chen Tong died, it would also be destroyed.

"Hoo~"

Chen Tong closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath, deactivating the Domain of Death. When he opened his eyes again, he saw the Death Underworld Dragon's two blood-red eyes peering at him.

"Master, what was that white light just now? Why did I feel a sense of comfort when I was enveloped by it?"

"Domain of Death!" Chen Tong uttered the three words indifferently. The next second, a piercing pain surged through his internal organs, and a trace of black blood trickled from his lips.

The Death Underworld Dragon was still contemplating Chen Tong's words about the Domain of Death when it suddenly felt darkness envelop its vision. Its massive body rapidly transformed into a stream of light and shot into Chen Tong's sea of consciousness.

Having done all this, Chen Tong, enduring the pain, entered the North Sea, shot out into the sky above the North Sea, and crashed onto a beach. He rolled several dozen times before finally stopping!

"Cough! Cough! Cough!"

Chen Tong spat out several mouthfuls of black blood! He quickly searched for a large pile of healing elixirs, from all sorts of immortal pills to various spiritual pills, all of which he consumed in one go. He meditated for several hours before his internal injuries finally began to stabilize.

"Hoo~"

A stream of turbid air was exhaled from his mouth! He slowly opened his somewhat listless eyes.

"Kid, you're finally awake!" the Death Underworld Dragon's voice echoed from within his sea of consciousness.

"Death Underworld Dragon, I've made you worry," Chen Tong said. With a thought, a stream of light shot out from the crown of his head. The next moment, a massive, dark, and incomparably huge dragon body coiled in the sky above Chen Tong.

"Is this what the outside world smells like! I don't see anything special!" The Death Underworld Dragon bathed in the aura of heaven and earth, its smug expression belying its dismissive words.

Suddenly, it rolled a few times. Its massive black dragon body, already emanating an aura of darkness and ferocity, along with its Death Qi, actually suppressed the surrounding area, turning it into a gray, dim world.

Chen Tong frowned slightly! "This guy is flashy, but this is too conspicuous. What if it scares the nearby creatures!"

With a thought from Chen Tong, the Death Underworld Dragon descended from the sky and returned to stand before Chen Tong. Its massive dragon head seemed to be looking at a grain of sand.

"Kid, you still haven't told me what happened to your injury just now? Your aura was so chaotic it was about to collapse."

Chen Tong glanced at it. He had been thinking about this question too, but after much deliberation, he could only attribute it to the Domain of Death! After all, the problem only appeared after he deactivated the Domain of Death.

"It seems I can't casually use this good thing anymore! I only tried it for a moment, and it almost cost me my life! Sigh, how depressing."

"Alright, Death Underworld Dragon, this kind of thing won't happen again. You should return to the sea of consciousness for now! You're too terrifying in your current form outside."

"Hmph!" The Death Underworld Dragon scoffed, then its eyes narrowed in suspicion. Its dragon head turned towards the east, "Someone's coming."

Chen Tong glanced eastward and uttered two words dazedly, "True Immortal!"

"No! Behind her are three Grand Unity Golden Immortals, one of whom has even reached the peak."

"Hmm...!" He hadn't detected this situation, possibly because the distance was too great.

"Alright, let's return to the sea of consciousness first and don't let them discover us."

Chen Tong urged it. The Death Underworld Dragon transformed into a stream of light and merged into the sea of consciousness. He then concealed his figure and sealed his aura.

Due to the side effects of the Domain of Death, his body was currently weak, and he didn't want any more trouble.

The approaching figures gradually came into view. It was a cold, flowing light, and within it was a face as pure and beautiful as frost, as clear and pure as jade. She wore a white dress of ice silk and held a sword of ice heart and snow light. Her beauty was soul-stirring.

Behind her were three middle-aged men in black, with red faces and lecherous expressions. Their sordid appearances were truly disheartening to behold!

"Alas, what a pity for such a flower that makes heaven and earth dim, to be about to fall into cow dung. It's truly heartbreaking to think about!" Chen Tong cursed inwardly. If his body weren't injured, he might have considered playing the hero and saving the beauty. But forget it, out of sight, out of mind.

Chen Tong closed his eyes, no longer paying attention. At this moment, in the sky, the elegant figure was getting closer and closer to him, until she stopped directly above him. That calming, yet pure and icy aura wafted towards his face, causing him to tremble involuntarily, yet it felt incredibly comfortable.

"Fairy Bing Lin, I advise you to stop running. You can't escape our grasp."

"That's right, Fairy Bing Lin. We brothers have accompanied you all the way from Penglai Immortal Island to this North Sea. Our sincerity is more than enough, isn't it?"

"Hmph! How can you call yourselves Grand Unity Golden Immortals when you are so dirty and filthy? You truly disgrace the face of the immortal sect."

"Hahaha! Immortal! Isn't an immortal meant for pleasure! We brothers just want to have a romantic and pleasurable time with the fairy!"

"Look at your cold and icy body, it truly makes one's blood boil!"
