Zhao Changhe was transmitting his voice: "The Han Chi has been trapped here for too long, unknowing of the heroes beneath the heavens. Let's hide our hand first, and when it's time to face it, we'll burst out and kill it."
Ying Wu: "..."
It seems like he forgot that this guy made his debut by becoming famous for throwing lime powder.
"Didn't you say you wouldn't learn it? How come you suddenly know it?"
"Space is hard to learn, but this thing can be mastered just by looking at it?"
Ying Wu slapped a giant beast in front of him, smashing it to pieces, imagining he was slapping Zhao Changhe, feeling slightly more comfortable.
The two rapidly advanced, reaching the iceberg ahead in no time.
There was more than one iceberg; they were everywhere, enormous beyond measure. If you were to find a sealed place within the encircling mountains, who knows how long it would take. But with the map's guidance pointing directly at the sealed location, it wouldn't even take a stick of incense. Breaking through the barriers of numerous giant beasts, they saw an ice-cold covered cave inside the mountain's belly.
The cave emanated a fierce and frenzied aura so intense that even Zhao Changhe, who could manipulate Evil Qi As Arm Points, couldn't withstand it, his head almost splitting with pain. On the contrary, the intent of the ice wasn't as strong as expected, seemingly counteracted by something.
The iced creatures left behind were chasing and approaching, howling together as if they were in extreme pain and madness; the scene was incredibly bizarre.
"This isn't Evil Qi, I'm too familiar with Evil Qi; the mental disturbance it causes isn't like this..." Zhao Changhe murmured painfully holding his head, "This thing's signs are very similar to Evil Qi. I thought it was mixed with cold to interfere with judgment, but now being close, I'm more certain it's not Qi. It seems to directly affect the mind... I don't know what it is, but I suspect it lies outside the Heavenly Dao, at least beyond the Heavenly Book."
Piaomiao was speaking to Ye Jiuyou: "Are you sure... he's only been cultivating for two and a half years? This keen insight requires extremely rich experience and knowledge; it's not something that talent can substitute for; it needs time to accumulate."
Ye Jiuyou slightly smiled: "His knowledge might even surpass yours... because, except for my page and the page in the sky, he has seven pages of the Heavenly Book. As long as it's related to the attributes of this world, there's nothing he hasn't seen. If he says it's not within the Heavenly Book's scope, then it's probably really not in the scope of the Heavenly Book."
"... He has seven pages of the Heavenly Book? How could Ye Wuming allow someone to have that many pages without killing him to take them?"
"How would I know..." Ye Jiuyou's tone was chilly: "You might not know, in this world, Ye Wuming is one with the Heavenly Book. Theoretically, the Heavenly Book is her body. Perhaps one or two pages wouldn't mean much, like I have one page and am just touching a page. But you can imagine, the more complete the collection, the more it signifies the body. Yet she allows it to be in the arms of a man to be played with at will, what do you think she means by that?"
Piaomiao: "?"
It all sounds like that kind of meaning.
Have I slept too long, and the sun in this epoch rises from the west?
Not discussing the gossip over there, Ying Wu was telling Zhao Changhe: "From my early contacts and understanding, I thought it was similar to an Evil Qi invasion, or something like Bodhisattva's spiritual illusion technique. You specialize in Evil Qi, I prepared the Soul Chain for spiritual illusion techniques in advance. But now it turns out neither is the case, spatial barriers are more meaningful. You just learned space, so why not use it?"
Zhao Changhe: "...I can't."
"Who was just telling me you almost mastered it?"
"...My daughter passed me down a killing skill."
"Where in the world did this daughter of yours come from... forget it, I'll teach you."
Indeed, Ying Wu handled it much easier here than Zhao Changhe... since this was passive consciousness interference existing in space, not someone actively casting a spell to intrude your sea of consciousness, just having a space barrier that prevents direct mental impact naturally resolves the issue.
Zhao Changhe learned the Space Technique from Star River, which didn't include this application. Now learning it from Ying Wu, he found it very useful, forming an isolated space protection around himself, useful as a combat defense in many situations. This level is much higher than Body Refining protection and Vigorous Air Protection. No wonder Ying Wu's cultivation didn't get injured or cold in this icy environment, not just because he's immune to spiritual interference; the isolation of space truly conceals Zhe She.
Moreover, once you understand it, the consumption isn't significant. The biggest drawback is the need to concentrate intensely to maintain it. Having practiced multitasking for so long now, this isn't much of an issue.
Already having entered the basics of space, Zhao Changhe learned quickly, isolating the surrounding space of his sea of consciousness at high speed, the maddening ancient god whispers instantly vanishing, leaving a world of tranquility. Without further hesitation, the two directly entered the cave.
Upon entering, they discovered this wasn't a cave, but an abyss.
Below, it was at least a thousand zhang deep, with ice walls everywhere. Unknown light sources reflected a splendid array of illusions that appeared both beautiful and eerie, though the cold was much lighter than outside.
On the contrary, the madness of spiritual invasions increased exponentially, far surpassing the outside world.
Clearly, this was something repressed by the severe cold, which could no longer be contained; the cold weakened, and the mental invasion became more severe.
Below, in the center, was a giant ice pool, in which jagged ice shards stood like chaotic rocks piercing the sky and intertwining like chains, locking an antlerless Ice Dragon within. Strange turtle shell forms subtly appeared around the ice pool, blurry, seeming almost completely unraveled.
Xuanwu sealed the Han Chi here.
"Crack..." The sound of ice shards breaking resounded, Han Chi looked up and let out a long howl.
