Huo Yuhao kept cheering for himself in his heart, getting closer and closer to the location of the ice ballast.
Finally, when all his strength and Soul Power were about to be exhausted, he arrived at the location of the ice ballast.
Huo Yuhao's legs were tightly wrapped around the iron rope. At the same time, he held the iron rope firmly with one hand. With the other hand, he took out the White Tiger Dagger that his mother left for him before she died, and used the last remaining strength to scratch the ice on it.
Following his movements, the ice ballast began to fall down, and a narrow hole behind the ice ballast was clearly exposed to Huo Yuhao's sight.
"Yuhao, work harder! I have a hunch that this hole is definitely not simple, and it might be a passage leading to another Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave!"
Listening to Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's voice in his mind, Huo Yuhao's face suddenly lit up with joy, and his body seemed to be energized again, and he felt much more energetic.
He exerted a sudden force and stabbed White Tiger Dagger hard.
This time, all the ice debris was indeed cleaned up, but because of the excessive force, the palm of the hand loosened unconsciously.
In an instant, White Tiger Dagger fell out of Huo Yuhao's hand and fell straight down.
"No!!!"
Huo Yuhao felt anxious and subconsciously stretched out his legs to try to stop White Tiger Dagger from falling, but to no avail.
He could only watch helplessly as White Tiger Dagger continued to fall until it landed at the bottom.
Because of the existence of Martial Soul, he can clearly see every detail of what White Tiger Dagger dropped.
He... he actually lost White Tiger Dagger, the last relic left to him by his mother?
"I lost my mother's White Tiger Dagger... I lost my mother's White Tiger Dagger..."
Huo Yuhao murmured, and his expression suddenly became dull.
Seeing this, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly became anxious.
Having been with Huo Yuhao for so long, he certainly knows how important this White Tiger Dagger is to Huo Yuhao. Worried that Huo Yuhao could not carry it clearly, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm tried to go down to the bottom again to find White Tiger Dagger and said quickly:
"Yuhao, if you slide down again now, you won't have the strength to climb back up!"
"It's better to enter the cave entrance first, restore your own Soul Power, and see what is behind the cave entrance. If it is really Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave, after you absorb Myriad Year Profound Ice Marrow, you can naturally come back to get this White Tiger Dagger."
"At that time, it would be easy for you to climb!"
Under Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's persuasion, Huo Yuhao reluctantly moved his eyes away from looking at the falling White Tiger Dagger.
He knew that what Sky Dream Ice Silkworm said was right.
He doesn't have much strength now, so he must cut off as soon as possible!
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao finally focused on the entrance of the cave.
It was an extremely narrow passage, with a diameter of only about half a meter, just enough for a person to crawl through. The wall of the passage was covered with a thin layer of ice crystals, glowing with a blue light of Youyou under the dim light coming from an unknown source.
This blue light was the little bit of luster he saw at first.
Huo Yuhao gritted his teeth, leaned down, and began to crawl into the passage.
The passage was narrower than he imagined, and the ice crystals on both sides were almost clinging to his body.
Every time he crawled forward for a certain distance, the ice crystals would rub against his clothes, making a "rustling" sound, which was particularly clear in this silent passage. Chill came from all directions and penetrated into his limbs and bones. When Soul Power was consumed in large quantities, this situation was undoubtedly more serious, but he could no longer care about it.
He has lost his mother's White Tiger Dagger... He must find Wanzaixuan Bingsui!
As we crawled, the passage gradually became wider. The blue light of Youyou became brighter and clearer, illuminating the entire passage like a dream.
Finally--
My eyes suddenly opened up.
Huo Yuhao poked his head out of the passage and stared at the scene in front of him, forgetting to breathe for a moment.
This is a huge ice cave, even wider than the Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave he was in before. There are countless thick and long ice edges hanging in the sky above the dome, densely packed and staggered, like an upside-down forest.
Those ice edges reflected a crystal white halo under the glimmer of light coming from nowhere. And the ice cave was surrounded by layers of crystal clear ice walls.
What shocked Huo Yuhao the most was the ice pool in the center of the ice cave.
It was a round ice pool with a diameter of about three feet. The water in the pool was crystal clear, but it glowed with a more intense blue light than the surroundings. The light seemed to be alive, flowing slowly on the water, sometimes gathering, sometimes spreading out, like a living creature breathing.
In the center of the ice pool, a thick icicle stands. The icicle is completely transparent, and a milky white liquid can be vaguely seen flowing slowly inside.
"This is..."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm thought it would be good to have a small Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave here. After all, the Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave he accidentally bumped into was already very big. It is difficult for two treasures to appear in the same place.
But the scene before him completely shattered his judgment.
This is actually a place of treasure far rarer than Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave!
"Yuhao! You are in luck! Although there are not as many Wanzai Xuanbing and Myriad Year Profound Ice Marrow as my brother's Myriad Year Profound Ice Cave back then, but this ice pool... I have a hunch that this is definitely a pool that can completely change your destiny!"
"Thanks Ice Empress for not looking carefully, otherwise this opportunity would not have fallen to you!"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, who was in ecstasy, relaxed his vigilance and did not notice the danger at all.
Huo Yuhao swallowed and moved with difficulty, wanting to get closer.
At this moment, a low roar suddenly sounded.
The entire ice cave seemed to tremble slightly at this roar. The ice edges on the dome rustled, and some even broke and fell. They hit the ice with a "click" and shattered into countless crystal ice shards.
Huo Yuhao stopped suddenly, and all the hairs on his body stood up.
He slowly turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound.
On the other side of the ice pool, where the blue light was the strongest, a pair of eyes were staring at him coldly.
The ice blue pupils, upright pupils, seemed to contain a whole world of ice and snow, cold, deep, and devoid of any emotion. The owner of the eyes slowly walked out of the shadow of the ice wall, revealing its complete appearance.
That's a fox.
A snow-white fox.
It is much larger than an ordinary fox, with a shoulder height of one meter and a body length of more than two meters. It has five fluffy long tails trailing behind it. Each hair is crystal clear, as if it is made of ice and snow. There is a silver line on its forehead, which flashes with a faint fluorescence, making it more noble and mysterious.
The most frightening thing is the aura it exudes - cold, majestic, and oppressive.
That's the aura that only Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast has!
