This is a vast expanse of snow, with a biting, icy wind blowing between heaven and earth, and large snowflakes fluttering everywhere.
Here stands a row of towering snow-capped peaks that reach into the sky, like guardians of this land, standing firm and preventing anyone from passing through. At the same time, behind these snow-capped peaks, something else is also blocked by them.
But then, at some point, a huge crack suddenly appeared among these seemingly indestructible snow-capped peaks.
The crack stretched from bottom to top, penetrating deep into the earth and cleaving one of the snow-capped peaks in two, until it was completely torn apart, and the entire peak collapsed.
As the snow-capped peak collapsed, a terrifying rift, hundreds of feet wide, appeared, like a canyon, spanning the snow-capped peak and connecting the world inside the snow-capped peak with the world outside.
The appearance of the crack brought with it gusts of icy wind that chilled the heavens and the earth. The terrifying cold current spread rapidly across the snowfield, and in just a few moments, it had spread beyond the snowfield into the vast mountain forest.
In an instant, wherever the cold front passed, everything in the world was frozen solid, and the entire mountain forest and the earth turned pale in the blink of an eye.
The branches that were swaying in the wind before the cold wave hit were instantly frozen by the cold wind, and the shape of the branches inside the ice was permanently frozen at the moment before they were swept away by the cold wind.
In the mountains and forests, countless magical beasts fled at breakneck speed, yet even so, many could not escape the clutches of the cold wind.
Finally, with a sweep of the cold wind, all the magical beasts, whether in the sky or on the ground, were completely frozen in a short moment. Not only were their bodies frozen, but their Dou Qi and souls were also instantly frozen!
In this freezing wind, anyone whose strength is less than that of Half-Emperor has no chance of survival!
In a short time, the mountains and forests within a radius of hundreds of miles were covered by a thick layer of solid ice. Wherever the cold wind passed, all life was extinguished, and heavy snow began to fall.
"Whoosh--"
At that moment, a sharp sound of wind breaking suddenly rang out between heaven and earth, accompanied by several streaks of light rushing across the sky with lightning speed. Immediately afterwards, a terrifying wind pressure descended upon the frozen mountains and forests below.
"Bang bang bang!"
The terrifying wind pressure instantly crushed the trees, which were like ice sculptures, and violently tore up the ice layer on the ground, leaving behind ravines of varying depths.
A moment later, Xiao Yan and his group of five appeared before the enormous crack.
Rather than a crack, it looks more like a canyon from this moment on.
This time, the canyon is several times wider than the deep ravine of the last time, and similarly, the cold currents gushing out from it are even more terrifying.
Feeling the terrifyingly cold wind rushing towards them, Xiao Yan felt that the muscles on his face had become numb from the cold, and of course, the others beside him were no exception.
However, to Xiao Yan's surprise, Murong Qianqian, who was standing next to Tian Ying, did not show any change in expression on her pretty face. The biting cold wind also dissipated automatically within a ten-foot radius of Murong Qianqian's body.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yan couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, feeling surprised. However, he immediately connected this to the reason why Murong Qianqian was able to enter the heart of the Xilin Mountain Range.
"No wonder, no wonder Tian Ying said she was able to enter the heart of the Xilin Mountain Range; it turns out there was something protecting her."
Having figured this out, Xiao Yan couldn't help but marvel inwardly. His Heavenly Flames, the most violent force in the world, couldn't easily withstand the cold wind, yet Murong Qianqian remained completely unmoved by it. The thing on her body must be extraordinary!
At the same time, the expressions on the faces of Tian Ying and the other two became solemn.
"As expected, this time, the power of the cold wind is several times stronger than before!"
Tian Ying stared intently at the canyon before him, the icy wind emanating from it making even him feel incredibly strained.
"Let's go all out, otherwise if this cold wind really spreads, the entire mountain range might be frozen solid!"
At this moment, even Yan Shi lost his usual playful expression. As he finished speaking, his Dou Qi surged out of his body with a bang, transforming into a ball of intense flames that burned Yan Shi on his body.
"Roar!"
As for Xiong Gang, who was usually a man of few words, he suddenly exerted his strength, and his Dou Qi surged out wildly, condensing into a rock armor on his body to protect his massive frame.
"Go! If we succeed, we can live and cultivate for several hundred more years. If we fail, we must give our lives to seal it away for hundreds or thousands of years!"
Tian Ying gritted his teeth and growled sharply, each word distinct and deliberate.
Unfortunately, this incident is far more serious than any before, to the point that even they are not entirely confident. In order to successfully withstand this cold wind, they will inevitably have to pay the price with their lives!
As soon as he finished speaking, the Tian Ying took the lead, its body moving swiftly as it soared into the sky, transforming itself to reveal its true form.
The enormous size of the Tian Ying appeared particularly domineering in the void, and as it flapped its wings, Xiao Yan and the others below could clearly see that dazzling spatial rifts appeared in the void around it.
Afterwards, Yan Shi and Xiong Gang also transformed into their true forms, each letting out a fierce roar to the sky and unleashing their power to seal the canyon below.
"Mr. Xiao Yan, if we can't hold on, we hope you can take our young lady away from the Xilin Mountain Range. Please!"
Just as Xiao Yan was gazing at Tian Ying and the other two in the sky, Tian Ying's voice quietly reached Xiao Yan's ears.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow slightly, then glanced at Murong Qianqian beside him before giving a barely perceptible nod.
"Roar roar roar!"
The next moment, the three giant beasts in the sky suddenly let out a deafening roar. Then, with a swift movement, their Dou Qi surged wildly, and powerful Dou Technique were unleashed at that moment.
" Blood Eagle Curse! Wind Calamity Over a Thousand Li!"
" Yan Shi Waterfall! Lion Astral Break!"
" Mountain and River Slaughter! The Three Stars Descent!"
