A forbidden place.
On a mountain on the edge of the forbidden area.
Qi Qingsong and his group of five, along with a golden bee worm, were scattered randomly on the uneven mountain top.
Zhao Yuanqi and Zhou Qingchen were standing at one end of the mountain, keeping an eye on three other strange pieces of broken land in the depths of the distant void.
Qi Qingsong and Zhuang Yuyan paid attention to the areas with many lakes and swamps in the forbidden area.
A few days ago, a ship named Poseidon, in the shape of a colorful shell, came across the vast and strange fog.
After arriving, many alien races who called themselves sea people flew out immediately and started fighting with the Purgatory human race led by Fu Wangchen.
Qi Qingsong and his companions did not participate in the battle, but stayed on the top of the mountain, closely observing the battle situation.
At the beginning, the members of the Sea Clan were no match for the forces from the Desolate Realm, the Demon Sect, Tianshuize, Tianmu Cliff, as well as the major families and independent cultivators of the Second Realm. Many of them were killed.
Seeing that they could not hold on any longer, the sea warriors fled to the lake and took refuge in it.
Relying on their mastery of water power, the Tianshuize monks led by Jiang Chao avoided the deep lake where the Ice-Armored Eel Dragon emerged, and continued to hunt down the sea creatures in other lakes.
The other forces, under Fu Wangchen's command, went to different lakes to kill the foreign enemies.
However, once someone enters the lake, very few people will show up.
Time flies. Zhuang Yuyan, who had been observing the situation in the forbidden area, found that after a long time, no human beings from Purgatory and no sea warriors emerged from the lake.
All living creatures that enter the lake are swallowed up by it.
"Are the lakes the real horror of this forbidden area?"
Qi Qingsong was in a heavy mood. He glanced at the golden bee worm that had not spoken for a long time and said, "According to what Pang Jian said, the Ice Clan lives in the frozen land, and there is the sacred object Heart of Winter left by the Ice Demon. The Thunder God Forbidden Land is the battlefield where the Thunder God of the Thunder Prison fought with several Thunder Gods."
"In a place where flames are raging, there is a fallen body of a fire god."
"The four broken lands belong to different worlds. They were all surrounded by strange fog before, but recently they have gathered here due to some kind of power."
"The other three pieces of broken land have all kinds of wonders, and the Absolute Heaven Forbidden Land is unlikely to be an exception."
"Maybe..."
The more he spoke, the more serious his expression became. "Those who entered the lake to hunt down the sea people due to Fu Wangchen's order are probably in great danger."
Zhuang Yuyan said with a bitter face: "I have a more pessimistic idea."
The taciturn Dong Tianze looked at Zhao Yuanqi and Zhou Qingchen in the other three pieces of broken land, and turned his head to look.
"Sister, tell me."
Qi Qingsong sighed and said, "There's nothing unacceptable. If it really doesn't work, we can just return to the Sword Boat."
"I think that apart from the lake where the Ice-Armored Eel Dragon emerged, which they all avoided, there may be similar beasts under other lakes and swamps." Zhuang Yuyan expressed her inner thoughts and said, "The sea tribe, Fu Wangchen and the others must have encountered other beasts at the bottom of the lake."
"Fu Wangchen deserves to die!"
Zhou Qingchen snorted coldly and cursed: "The sea tribes coming from the Tianhai Realm are all dark water-loving aliens. Seeing that the road surface is no match for the deep lake, they must be confident in the battle in the lake."
"A Jiang Chao and a Fu Wangchen actually dared to chase to the bottom of the lake and fight with the sea creatures."
"They were the ones who killed others."
Zhou Qingchen said angrily.
“Someone!”
Zhuang Yuyan's eyebrows twitched, and she flew up on her sword, and from the top of the mountain, she used her concentration level to look down below.
Among the green pines and wisterias, the figure of the Demon Sect's Wu Yuan appeared. He was obviously relieved when he saw Zhuang Yuyan.
Only then did he dare to climb the mountain with confidence.
Dong Tianze, who thought it was another divine guard and sneaked up, saw that it was Wu Yuan and continued to sit in meditation and practice.
"This golden bee worm..."
Wu Yuan came up and looked at the bee insect curiously under the vigilant gaze of everyone, and said, "Can it establish a connection with Pang Jian?"
"What are you doing here?"
Qi Qingsong, who was not on good terms with him, asked with a stern look on his face.
"After I entered a lake, I did not sink to the bottom of the lake, but floated to the surface very quickly. I hid on the surface of the lake for several hours. When I fell back into the lake, I saw many corpses."
"There are no bodies of the sea creatures. They are all human beings like us."
"I felt something was wrong at the bottom of the lake, but I didn't want to sink to investigate, so I surfaced again."
"After that, I didn't see anyone, not even the Sea Clan, coming out of any of the lakes."
Wu Yuan, who rarely spoke so much, poured out everything he had seen and heard recently, and then said: "I think Pang Jian is right. Fu Wangchen in the desolate land may have problems. The bottom of every lake in the forbidden land may have problems, and the alien race who calls themselves the sea race seems to be able to swim in the lake with ease."
"so… "
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "I want to go with you to another broken land to find Pang Jian, or I can stay here to take care of him."
"Do you believe that Pang Jian has not been infected by the alien god?" Zhou Qingchen asked curiously.
Wu Yuan nodded.
"Where is Fang Xuan?" Zhuang Yuyan asked casually.
Wu Yuan said: "Like the others, he also went into the lake to hunt down the sea creatures, and he was unable to get out of the lake."
"He should be dead."
Zhuang Yuyan didn't have many regrets. After thinking for a while, she asked for everyone's opinions: "He wants to join us. What do you think?"
"Can."
Zhou Qingchen, Zhao Yuanqi and Dong Tianze nodded in succession.
Qi Qingsong, who had had some unpleasant experiences in the past due to the dispute between the sects, was silent for a moment and said in a cold voice: "If Fu Wangchen were alive, if Pang Jian returned from another broken land, when he and Fu Wangchen had to decide life and death, which side would you stand on?"
Wu Yuan said: "Pang Jian."
"I swear by the names of the true gods of your Demon Sect who have passed away in the past! Only if you swear the oath, will I acknowledge you as one of us in this strange void."
"good."
Wu Yuan did as he was told.
After he finished his oath, Qi Qingsong's attitude became a little better. He pointed to three pieces of broken land visible to the naked eye in the distance and said, "One is called the Frozen Land, one is called the Thunder God Forbidden Land, and the other broken land has the remains of the Fire God."
He also told Wu Yuan the news that Pang Jian had conveyed to them through bees and insects after his exploration.
"The Shattered Palace of Thunder, the Heart of Winter, the Body of the God of Fire!"
Wu Yuan was shocked.
He suddenly felt extremely fortunate that he had taken the initiative to come here, and was fortunate that between Fu Wangchen and Pang Jian in the Desolate Land, he chose Pang Jian, whom most people did not think highly of.
…
Frozen land.
Three thousand golden divine consciousnesses hung in Pang Jian's sea of consciousness like golden waterfalls, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
"I… "
As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that his voice became weak and difficult.
"You finally woke up."
The elders of the Ice Clan, led by the two seventh-level elders Bingyuan and Bingying, looked at him eagerly and silently used honorifics to address him.
"The Ice Demon has fallen."
Pang Jian directly dropped a bombshell.
"In the Heart of Winter, I saw the last spirit left by the Ice Demon. When I learned the truth through that spirit, his spirit had also run out of power."
"Let me tell you what happened."
"… "
Pang Jian explained the truth, took out a large amount of the ferocious beast's flesh and blood and began to eat it as a tonic.
The Red-Eyed Demon Wolf, the Blood-Patterned Beast, the Golden Rock Beast, the Flame Sun Beast, no matter what level of ferocious beast meat, he took out and tore it apart to eat in order to replenish the severely depleted blood, flesh and energy.
The blood of the Red-Eyed Demon Wolf and the Flame Sun Beast contained the blazing power of earth fire, which flowed into the pool of fire in his spiritual sea.
He took out the spiritual jade again to absorb strength, and secretly observed the ice pool that was magnified many times and looked extremely spectacular in his spiritual sea.
The "Heart of Winter" is at the bottom of the ice pool. The crystal core inside the ice crystal heart is still there, but the thick cold fog surrounding the crystal core, the divine consciousness hidden for thousands of years, is finally eaten by bees and insects, turning into a golden glow.
He stared into his sea of consciousness, taking a closer look at the huge beehive, a look of satisfaction escaping the corners of his mouth.
"The gods we believe in have fallen."
"It turns out that the Ice Clan was born on the Winter Star, in a world called the Mysterious Ice Realm, but the Ice Clan there has become extinct."
"The Ice Crystal Goddess killed the protector of our Ice Clan and replaced the Ice Demon as the new god."
"… "
The elder of the Ice Clan, who was full of hope and ready to wait for the contact with the Heavenly Ban to go out into the outside world for a big fight, suddenly heard the shocking bad news and became at a loss.
Pang Jian, who realized the mystery of himself, suddenly looked at the images of the sun, moon and stars engraved on the six ice pillars.
A mysterious feeling quietly entered his heart.
From now on, this piece of broken land named Frozen Land, because of the "Heart of Winter" that fell into his ice pool, and because of the wonder of his "Sea of Chaos" that was imprinted on the six icicles.
This place seems to be connected with him forever!
The mysterious power he felt through the "Chaos Sea" and the various wonders he incorporated into the "Chaos Sea" seemed to cause strange changes in the frozen land.
It will also gradually make up for and repair the natural principles that are missing in the frozen land.
Pushed here by the Ice Demon, this group of Ice Clan fire species that survived with difficulty also developed a close relationship with him.
"Ice Halberd!"
When the Ice Clan lost their direction, Pang Jian shouted softly and ordered, "Ride the flying bird and try to leave the frozen land."
Bing Ji in the sky looked at him in surprise.
The six elders of the Ice Clan also looked at them with puzzled expressions.
The second elder was the first to react. He gave orders on behalf of Pang Jian: "Listen to him! Bing Ji, go and try to attack the Heavenly Forbidden Zone again!"
"good!"
The excited ice warrior rode a flying bird towards the sky.
All the members of the Ice Clan looked at him anxiously, watching him gradually enter the light cold mist.
Also looking at him, suddenly he passed through the cold fog!
After Pang Jian, the Ice Clan warrior and his flying bird magically disappeared from the sight of the Ice Clan members.
"The Heavenly Ban has been broken!"
"Free!"
"From now on, we, the Ice Clan, can also soar across the vast galaxy and see the strange scenery outside the sky!"
Cheers broke out in the frozen land.
"you… "
Several elders were in tears, and when they looked at Pang Jian again, gratitude was revealed on their faces.
The death of the Great Elder Binglan was his own fault.
"Get ready. We will start from the Thunder God's Forbidden Land and conquer each broken land one by one."
