Chapter 2755 - 2731: Icefire Bomb
Chapter 2731: Icefire Bomb
"Boom!"
A loud explosion echoed across the sky, and the entire swamp was instantly lifted, all the black mud freezing into ice crystals and flying in all directions, countless ice crystals exploding into the air like a sudden black ice rain.
Within a radius of hundreds of miles, thousands of miles were affected, and the ground shook violently, while the black ice crystals scattered, almost covering the entire swamp. On the plain, a giant pit hundreds of feet deep suddenly appeared.
Lin Feng finally revealed a smile, surprised that the icefire bomb actually worked. He approached the pit and discovered that inside the pit was a space extremely similar to a black hole, utterly devoid of visible contents, as if it were an abyss wanting to swallow him whole.
He felt there must be something hidden beneath this black hole and suspected that this place might be a passage connected to another space because when he extended his Divine Sense, he could feel the black hole seemed to be swallowing it, filling him with fear. Although he was tempted to continue exploring, many important matters awaited him, and given his position, he couldn’t risk it, so he abandoned the idea of further exploration. It seemed this place was unsuitable for establishing a sect, and he shook his head, leaving.
Taking out Aurora again, he walked inside and released Ma Biaohu and Tangyuan, continuing on their journey.
The two humans and two beasts set off directly towards Fentian Mountain. Ma Biaohu was curious why they left immediately upon arriving at the swamp plain, so he asked, "Boss, what’s under the swamp?"
"I don’t know either; I didn’t go down," Lin Feng explained to Ma Biaohu.
Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Ma Biaohu, Tangyuan, and Xiao Jiu all looked at Lin Feng curiously. They knew Lin Feng’s character: once he starts something, he doesn’t give up halfway. Then Tangyuan asked, "Boss, why didn’t you go down?"
"I sensed danger there, and it’s not suitable for us to establish a sect, so I left." Lin Feng touched Tangyuan’s head and said, wondering why, during this sect establishment, he felt something was guiding him, and this intuition told him it definitely wouldn’t be the swamp plain.
Ma Biaohu and Tangyuan nodded, and then Xiao Jiu looked at Lin Feng and said, "Master, when can I start helping you?"
Lin Feng noticed Xiao Jiu had changed a lot recently, no longer bullying Tangyuan as before and gradually maturing. He was pleased with these changes. Although Xiao Jiu was his only Spirit Pet, he felt awkward being called "Master" by Xiao Jiu, so he said, "From now on, you call me Boss like them."
Xiao Jiu stared at Lin Feng with big eyes, smiling and said, "Okay, Boss!"
The two humans and two beasts continued to fly on Aurora for several months. They saw the majestic mountains and rivers of the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm from Aurora, encountering many prosperous cities. However, finding a location for their sect was crucial, so they kept moving, until finally, under Lin Feng’s Divine Sense search, they found Fentian Mountain.
Fentian Mountain was extremely unique, likely the only one in the entire Myriad Heavens Divine Realm, and Lin Feng had seen pictures of Fentian Mountain, so he was very certain this was the place they were looking for.
Standing on Aurora from afar, they could see it, the entire mountain towering into the clouds, wrapped in a faint mist. Amidst the clouds, the mountain was spectacularly divided into two parts, suspended in mid-air between them, also surrounded by mist, making the entire mountain appear as if within an Immortal Realm.
Lin Feng put away Aurora, taking Ma Biaohu, Tangyuan, and Xiao Jiu towards Fentian Mountain. As they approached the clouds, Xiao Jiu suddenly spoke up, "Boss, don’t go in yet."
Xiao Jiu’s expression didn’t resemble that of a few-year-old child, his face grave, seeming to sense something bad.
"Why?" Lin Feng stopped to look at Xiao Jiu. He didn’t sense anything amiss, but he trusted Xiao Jiu’s abilities; there must be something, or else Xiao Jiu wouldn’t have stopped him.
"There’s a problem with this cloud," Xiao Jiu said, looking firmly at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng looked at the clouds before him; he felt absolutely nothing, which made him curious. He then asked Xiao Jiu, "What’s going on?"
Xiao Jiu closed his eyes, sensed again, then opened them to look at Lin Feng and said, "I felt a special aura in these clouds, possibly related to our Dragon Clan."
Hearing this, Lin Feng thought if it was Dragon Clan’s aura, it must be very dangerous. He considered it and then told Ma Biaohu and Tangyuan, "You two wait here; Xiao Jiu will come with me to check."
He then entered the clouds with only Xiao Jiu. Upon entering, Xiao Jiu reverted to his true form, a black Giant Dragon appearing in mid-air, and Lin Feng stood on the head of the Nine Dark Heaven Dragon, flying deeper into the clouds.
Due to the Dragon Clan Bloodline, Xiao Jiu quickly identified the location of the dragon’s aura within the clouds. Among layers of mist, a nearly transparent Dragon Soul floated within the clouds, hiding extremely well, almost blending into the clouds, difficult to see without close scrutiny.
Although the dragon was soul-shaped, its transparent appearance showed slight differences from typical dragons, with a shorter body length and the dragon head lacking horns, looking unusually eerie.
Clearly, the Dragon Soul also noticed Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu’s arrival, quickly emerging from the clouds and standing before Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu, glaring at them menacingly.
"You’re not Dragon Clan!" Xiao Jiu shouted at the Dragon Soul, then turned to Lin Feng on its back and said, "Master, this guy only possesses Dragon Clan Bloodline, not Dragon Clan."
At that moment, Lin Feng suddenly remembered Fan Yun’s words: those who came to Fentian Mountain couldn’t leave safely, everyone went insane. He directly pointed at the Dragon Soul and asked, "Are you the reason all cultivators’ sanity was destroyed?"
The Dragon Soul looked at Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu, disdainfully snorting, arrogantly saying, "What do you think? Don’t worry, you two will become madmen too!"
Hearing this, Lin Feng felt this Dragon Soul’s mentality was fundamentally twisted, beyond reasoning. He then looked at Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu was unusually excited at this moment, fully entering combat mode, with the black scales on its body seemingly standing upright. It could finally have a fight.
Just as it was about to attack, Lin Feng smiled indifferently and patted Xiao Jiu on the back, saying: "You can’t kill it."
The Dragon Soul saw Xiao Jiu’s appearance, laughed twice, and said: "Are you fools? I’m a Soul Body, how are you going to kill me?"
Lin Feng smiled faintly, then took the Destiny Sword from the Space Ring. In an instant, the golden Destiny Sword wrapped around his right arm, pointing directly at the Dragon Soul, and said: "Is there no way to kill a Soul Body?"
Upon hearing this, the Dragon Soul was first started, then before it could react, Lin Feng immediately circulated the Nine Suns Sky-Shaking Technique within his body. Afterwards, nine Sunbursts appeared in the clouds, constantly rotating and surrounding the Dragon Soul. Quickly, they formed a Trapping Formation, enclosing the Dragon Soul within its bounds.
Seeing this scene, the Dragon Soul panicked. Although it was a Soul Body, it couldn’t escape such a powerful formation and could only run around wildly within the Trapping Formation.
The Destiny Sword pointed to the sky, revealing a golden Dragon Soul in the sky. It roared at the Dragon Soul trapped within the formation, shouting: "You abomination!"
Upon hearing the sword’s Dragon Soul say this, Xiao Jiu looked at Lin Feng puzzled. It was still young and didn’t understand the rules of the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Clan emphasized the purity of its Bloodline, and such a Dragon Soul was a disgrace to the Dragon Clan.
Terrified, the Dragon Soul looked at Lin Feng and his companions, suddenly panicked, no longer arrogant or shouting, it began to plead: "Spare me, don’t let me dissipate!"
The Dragon Soul from the Destiny Sword ignored it and charged forward. The golden Dragon Soul streaked across from the sky like a golden light, targeting the translucent Dragon Soul within the Nine Suns formation.
At this moment, Lin Feng also used Divine Sense to interfere with the Dragon Soul, and the pressure emitted from Xiao Jiu was enough to frighten the Dragon Soul. The golden light rushed towards the center of the transparent Dragon Soul, and in just a split second, the translucent Dragon Soul exploded.
Oh no!
Seeing the Dragon Soul dissipate, as Lin Feng put away the Destiny Sword, he suddenly sensed danger. He immediately transformed Xiao Jiu into human form, then used Thousand Miles in One Step to fly a thousand miles away.
"Boom!"
Just as they had left, the entire mountain began to tremble, the upper part of the mountain slowly descended, then merged with the lower part, emitting a loud crash, dispersing all the clouds and mist surrounding it.
That was close!
Lin Feng exhaled deeply. Had they been any slower, both he and Xiao Jiu would have been buried in the mountain.
Ma Biaohu and Tangyuan looked at Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu as they achieved Thousand Miles in One Step to appear beside them, very puzzled, then asked: "Boss, anything discovered inside?"
He hadn’t expected Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu to come out so quickly, and seeing the mountain fall from afar, something must have happened.
"There was something, but it’s solved now," Lin Feng answered Ma Biaohu’s question simply, but he still felt something was off. He thought things couldn’t be that simple. If the mountain was caused by the Dragon Soul, wouldn’t it just directly hide within the mountain? Why split the mountain?
"What was in there?" Ma Biaohu continued to ask curiously, seeing Lin Feng’s appearance was full of doubt.
"It was a Dragon Soul." Lin Feng pondered for a while and then asked Xiao Jiu: "Does your Dragon Clan have a habit of splitting mountains like this?"
"No, I think!" Xiao Jiu looked at Lin Feng, confused. It also felt very strange, but it knew nothing.
At this moment, Ma Biaohu suddenly said: "Boss, do you think there might be something in this mountain, like a strong cultivator’s remains or something? Maybe the Dragon Soul was a Guardian Beast of the strong cultivator?"
He just guessed randomly because he had been to many places with Lin Feng, forming some reasoning ideas.
However, his words reminded Lin Feng: "How did I not think of that."
After the mountain stabilized, the two humans and two beast companions started heading towards the foot of the mountain, intending to explore again and see if they could enter the mountain to find answers.
However, after circling the mountain, they couldn’t find any entrance at all. Then from the Space Ring, he took out a Dharma Treasure resembling a shovel and tossed it to Ma Biaohu, ordering: "Dig!"
Ma Biaohu heard Lin Feng’s words and looked distressed. He always did this kind of work, so he asked: "Boss, why is it always me?"
"If not you, then should I dig?" Lin Feng crossed his arms and looked at Ma Biaohu.
Ma Biaohu sighed helplessly, glanced at Tangyuan and Xiao Jiu, blaming those two for being of no help, sighed again, and began to dig.
Tangyuan and Xiao Jiu looked at Ma Biaohu and laughed, clutching their stomachs.
