However, how many lives this adventure will ultimately result in is another matter entirely.

For thousands of years, the biting cold and endless snow could not stop those with a true spirit of exploration; countless lives have been lost here.

Those who can venture into this area are all, without exception, extremely powerful...

Great strength often requires a strong soul and will as its foundation.

With an already powerful soul corrupted by the aura of Evil God for so many years, no one can predict to what extent it will become twisted.

Previously, these evil spirits had been dormant.

But after the ice was broken, the scent of living people rushed in along with the air.

The frozen evil spirits were all activated at this time.

Ileta's expression was solemn. Even for someone like her, the Daughter of Death, dealing with such an evil spirit that had grown after Evil God's Corruption would be quite troublesome.

Hateful.

This layer of ice, tens or even hundreds of meters thick, after thousands of years of freezing temperatures, is harder than a boulder. It's not something that can be easily broken, yet it shattered because of a single Transcendent Magic Meteor Spell, Meteorite?

Could this also be a deliberate arrangement by that mysterious being?

What exactly does that guy want to do?

A flurry of thoughts rushed through Ileta's mind, but Ileta had no time to think about them at the moment. Her dark eyes, peering through the thick ice, clearly saw that beneath the ice, faint black traces were beginning to writhe.

The evil spirit is about to be unleashed.

Even though her body was already dead and she was no longer breathing, Ileta could feel her breathing becoming unusually rapid.

His gaze snapped to Inas and Florence behind him, his pale lips parted. "Run!"

The sound wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of the two women.

Escape?

An invisible, oppressive force made it difficult for the two women to even breathe.

What did the Daughter of Death discover that made her want the two of them to escape?

Before they could even think too much, Inas and Florence exchanged a glance. They wanted to stay and help... but before, the two of them together could hold off an enemy and provide some support for Ileta.

But now that the situation has changed so drastically, their presence has become a complete burden. Judging from the expression on Ileta's face, this is no longer a conflict they can get involved in.

However, these two women are quite clever.

Although she sensed that something was wrong, she immediately began to search for hope in her mind.

The only hope is... Qin Chu.

Perhaps only the Hero has mastered the power of Holy Light and inherited the legacy of the Goddess of Holy Light can stop the impending disaster.

Florence immediately pressed her fingers to her ear, attempting to contact Qin Chu using Message Magic.

However, it failed.

It's unclear whether it's because the seal on the glacier here was broken, the aura of Evil God permeated the air, and evil spirits were unleashed, causing severe interference with energy and making it impossible to contact Qin Chu through Message Magic.

"Inas, travel to the Ice Grand Duchy as quickly and efficiently as possible." Florence, after all, was once the High Priestess of the Earth Mother Church. Although she had long since faded from the limelight, she still demonstrated far superior experience than Inas in handling such emergencies.

"If anything happens during this time, please contact us using the Message Magic."

Inas understood that in this situation, he could not afford to delay.

Inas nodded vigorously without the slightest hesitation, straining with all his might to maintain his shield, and hurtled towards the direction of the Ice Grand Duchy.

During this process, Inas's shield was severely damaged, and within just a few seconds, large cracks appeared on the shield.

As for Florence, she retreated at a slightly slower pace.

While retreating, they continued to try to contact Qin Chu using Message Magic, hoping to escape this area where the energy had become extremely chaotic as soon as possible.

Six clones remained in mid-air.

They have no intelligence whatsoever; they're like mad dogs.

But it is precisely this mad dog-like nature that makes them unable to allow any prey to escape from their sight, and immediately two clones attempt to give chase.

"The Death Domain."

Ileta's face was icy, a cold glint flashing in her dark eyes. She spoke in a low voice, uttering a mysterious word.

Ugh!

A chilling wind blew in.

A coldness of a completely different kind, unlike that found in glaciers, spread through the Void, and the whole world seemed to be shrouded in a layer of light gray traces.

It wasn't a deep, dark black, but a somber, grayish-black.

Countless tiny particles seemed to be floating in the air, and even the swirling snow had turned into ashes after burning, slowly drifting down.

Black streaks, like ribbons of silk, danced and tangled towards the six clones, attempting to intercept them.

Facing six enemies at once, Ileta was under immense pressure.

She knew that these clones were all extremely powerful.

The original plan was to kill one enemy by surprise, while Inas and Florence would hold off another, and he would face the remaining five simultaneously. After a long battle that might take several days, he should be able to gradually gain the upper hand.

Once you gain the upper hand, if you seize the opportunity to eliminate one of them, you can completely secure the victory.

But now the situation has changed, and Ileta has no choice but to take risks.

The worst part is for Ileta; the crisis isn't just these few clones, but also the evil spirits that are about to surge out from below.

This is really troublesome, but at least we have to get those two women out of there.

Beneath the ice, the unfortunate soul who had been struck directly on the head by a massive meteorite was gradually waking up.

Countless bones in his body were broken by the shock.

However, without a soul, without consciousness, and driven purely by instinctual madness, he felt no pain whatsoever. On the contrary, the enemy's attacks and the mutilation of his body only fueled his Wrath.

Roar... Roar... Roar...

From the man's throat came a series of low, suppressed roars.

His body was twisting in a strange way.

It resembles a giant worm.

Click, click, click...

With each twist, strange sounds emanated from his body, as if the broken sounds within him were all being reconnected.

Even the top of his head, where the skull was cracked by the meteorite, is healing at an extremely rapid pace.

This astonishing speed of recovery is even more exaggerated than the Holy Healing Authority.

This is also a superpower: Extreme Healing.

The Holy Healing Authority granted Qin Chu extraordinary recovery abilities. As long as Qin Chu was alive and had not died, he could fully recover from any injury, no matter how severe.

At most, the recovery speed will be slightly slower if the injury is too severe, such as missing an arm or leg, or being torn to pieces.

Just like when Qin Chu was cut in half at the waist by the Demon King Nag, the Holy Healing Authority made it take more than a minute for Qin Chu's body to fully recover.

If it weren't for the fact that the Demon King Nag had also been affected by the Counter-Prophecy Art during this time and hadn't failed to recover, and had he dealt a few more blows to Qin Chu, he might not have even had a chance to recover.

However, the Holy Healing Authority has another advantage: the recovery process has absolutely no time interval. As soon as an injury occurs, recovery begins immediately without needing a cooldown period.

Extreme Healing, on the other hand, is another method.

Both this Transcendent Authority and Holy Healing share a common prerequisite: the host must not be dead. Whether it is still having a heartbeat, still breathing, or even still having thoughts, meeting any one of these conditions will allow it to be activated.

Compared to Holy Healing, Extreme Healing has an even more exaggerated recovery efficiency. Even if your limbs are severed, your body is cut in two, and all your bones are ground to powder, as long as you are alive, you can recover within seconds.

However, it is not as good as Holy Healing in some aspects. For example, this Transcendent Authority has a cooldown period and can only be used once a day at most.

This tall, muscular, and brutish man, who became a clone of Sanchi Kentaro, was originally a Hero himself.

Sanchi Kentaro named this person the Strength Hero.

His talent wasn't particularly extraordinary; he only possessed one Transcendent Authority: Extreme Healing. However, he had three high -High-Tier Authority, all of which were related to strength. Each power continuously enhanced his physical strength and power.

He doesn't know magic, but he has a unique talent for Battle Qi. With the added boost of three High-Tier Authority, he can become a steamroller on the battlefield, tearing all enemies in his path to shreds.

His strength is so exaggerated that he is the strongest among all Hero.

Its superhuman physique also brings amazing endurance. If coupled with Extreme Healing, it can turn the tide even when seriously injured and on the verge of death, and immediately become energetic again. It will definitely be a nightmare for the enemy on the battlefield.

It is precisely because of the terrifying nature of this power that if it were being manipulated by Sanchi Kentaro's consciousness, it would only be activated when he was on the verge of death.

But now, Sanchi Kentaro has lost control of his clone.

In this situation, the clone naturally suffered some injuries and immediately activated its Extreme Healing, resulting in a huge waste.

His injuries healed completely within seconds, and the man howled as he tried to charge forward again to confront the bastard who had knocked him down.

Suddenly, the hairs on his body stood on end.

Although he lacked sentience, a purely instinctive premonition still told the man that terrifying danger was imminent.

He tried to dodge, but a shrill scream exploded in his mind, slowing his movements by half a beat.

Almost at the same time, an arm, white and translucent, tore out from somewhere, its danger tinged with an eerie beauty.

Its speed was so fast that even with the man's strength, he would have had difficulty dodging it when caught off guard.

Laugh.

A sound like leather being torn came from the skin of his chest.

His clothes were torn, the skin of his chest cavity was split in two, and even several ribs beneath the skin were severed.

Drops of bright red blood seeped out from the wound.

A human-shaped silhouette appeared right in front of the man.

You can barely tell from her figure that this is a woman... or rather, that she was a woman in life.

Her hair and her magician's robes were all burned, and her body swayed gently like an unformed lump of jelly, still maintaining the appearance she had before death.

The skin on his face and body was burned black and was peeling off piece by piece, revealing his bloodied internal organs.

Especially that face; the nose had disappeared, the eyes had disappeared, leaving only a series of twisted little holes.

Crimson flames seemed to flicker on her body.

She was burned to death.

One can almost imagine everything that this evil spirit encountered... In her previous life, the evil spirit was a powerful and adventurous magician. She knew how dangerous the depths of the glacier were, but she could not suppress her Desire for adventure.

She stepped onto the glacier.

Finally, we arrived at this deepest part.

The corrosive aura of the Evil God drove her consciousness into chaos and madness.

The icy cold was also making it difficult for the woman to endure.

In that moment, she unleashed the most terrifying flames, then laughed maniacally as she threw herself into the inferno, letting the magic she had unleashed scorch her body, dying amidst her hysterical laughter.

The man's tongue swept across his lips, and he parted his mouth, revealing two rows of gleaming white teeth like a wild beast.

Grasping two battle axes in his hands, the danger emanating from the surroundings even suppressed the man's madness. Out of the corner of his eye, he had already glimpsed a large number of strange and distorted figures that had appeared around him at some unknown time.

Its body was shriveled and withered, resembling a skeleton.

There was a distended abdomen, as if she were pregnant, to the point that her skin was cracked.

A strange creature, its mouth smeared with dark red blood, was chewing on strips of meat and staring at itself with a strangely unfriendly gaze.

Even without reason, the instincts of a wild animal still caused a fine layer of goosebumps to appear on the man's skin.

That's not all. Further away, a large number of gray-black traces, like a raging tornado, embraced each other and roared outwards along the broken ice.

Because the already gloomy sky, created by Ileta's Death Domain, became like purgatory in that instant.

Ileta, who was holding out against the siege of six powerful enemies, caught sight of the commotion below and turned deathly pale.

The evil spirit has finally been unleashed.
