The Stone Palace.
Deep underground.
A huge altar made of numerous broken rocks fills the vast underground stone hall.
The shape of the circular altar looks somewhat similar to a copper coin, but six thick stone pillars stand at the corners.
The pillars were engraved with unknown runes, as well as murals of Cyclops worshiping heaven.
The body of Wang Yisen, a monk in the Dongxuan Realm, and the headless body of Lingyun Sanren are both at the stone pillar next to the altar.
Standing outside the altar, Pang Jian felt a chill that chilled his soul, forcing him to use the power of the fire in the spiritual sea mixed with the power of the sun to resist the severe cold in the stone palace.
He observed carefully.
Soon I noticed that the altar hidden deep in the ground must have been destroyed and then rebuilt from the broken pieces.
Because both the altar and the thick standing stone pillars have obvious cracks and gaps.
Some gaps still appear large.
"call!"
A figure wearing a feather crown and a fairy-like figure quietly floated out of the darkness.
"Ling Yun!"
Pang Jian's expression changed, and he immediately realized that this was a spiritual evil spirit condensed by Luo Hongyan.
"The soul of the guy in Yinling Temple is stronger, but it's a pity that he couldn't be condensed into a spiritual evil."
Luo Hongyan sighed with regret.
When she fell, Wang Yisen was already dead.
Lingyun Sanren, who was well aware of the strangeness of Yinling Temple, used the power of this altar to kill Wang Yisen, causing Wang Yisen's soul to disperse instantly.
She couldn't even sense the remnants of Wang Yisen's soul inside.
"Pang Jian, your guess is correct. Above us is a city built by the Cyclops. This city actually has the same name as Ice Rock Island. It was called Ice Rock City by the Cyclops."
Luo Hongyan, who got part of the memory from Ling Yun's scattered people, explained: "Ling Yun doesn't know why Ice Rock City is here and how it was destroyed."
"When he first occupied this place, this piece of broken land was not strange at all. After he discovered this palace hidden underground, and after he pieced the broken rocks together and rebuilt it piece by piece, the cold air suddenly escaped from the ground."
"By the way, the underground palace we are currently in is called the Stone Palace."
Seeing Pang Jian listening attentively, she continued to tell the information she had obtained, telling the secrets of Ice Rock City, Giant Stone Hall, and the altar one by one.
Pang Jian also learned from this that this huge stone temple hidden deep underground, as well as the incomplete altar that was reassembled by Ling Yun, was the place where the Cyclops used to communicate with the ice demon.
After the incomplete altar reappeared, the Stone Palace became bone-chillingly cold, with cold air escaping through the altar.
Broken Earth Rock Island was also renamed Ice Rock Island by Ling Yun.
Ling Yun relied on this cold altar and used part of the power of the broken altar to successfully kill Wang Yisen.
"Has he successfully communicated with the so-called ice demon?"
Pang Jian said curiously.
Luo Hongyan shook her head and said: "The destroyed altar is still broken when put together, with only a small part of the mystery. Ling Yun has tried countless times in secret, but has never been able to communicate with the ice demon."
"but……"
Luo Hongyan paused and said, "You can go in and feel the feelings."
"I?"
Pang Jian was surprised.
"Well, don't worry. Since Ling Yun is dead, he can't inspire the mystery of the altar. You will have a wonderful feeling when you sit down at the altar..."
Luo Hongyan suggested with a smile on her face.
Pang Jian frowned, walked along the stone steps to the altar, and immediately sat down on the spot.
He looked around, touched the cold rock, and scratched at the cracks. He didn't notice anything unusual.
"Try to close your eyes and feel it."
Luo Hongyan pursed her lips and chuckled mysteriously.
Pang Jian closed his eyes as told.
In an instant, he felt endless loneliness and felt that he was in a dark and void world.
Around him, there was no breath of life, only eternal silence.
The terrifying icy aura slowly enveloped him like a shackle, and the cold force seemed to freeze his body and soul to pieces.
He shuddered with horror.
Apart from the extremely cold aura surrounding his body, he felt as if he was lying in a copper box without wearing the bronze medal.
In that box, he was also in a dark world, unable to touch anything, accompanied by eternal nothingness and deathly silence.
Now at the altar, he could touch the cold stone with his hands and feel the rock under his buttocks.
However.
His other feelings were almost the same as when he was in a copper box without wearing a bronze medal.
"Do you feel it?"
Luo Hongyan's deep eyes revealed a mysterious luster, and she said softly: "The situation in the altar is similar to the box in Bagua City."
She was also startled when she landed on the altar.
Pang Jian's thoughts moved and he asked in surprise: "Does the ice demon that the Cyclops wants to communicate with live in such a world?"
"The Cyclops is now in the fifth realm, and the ice demon they want to communicate with should also be somewhere in the fifth realm." Luo Hongyan guessed.
Pang Jian shook his head: "No, it's not. It's not like that in the fifth realm."
Luo Hongyan was stunned for a moment before she remembered that in Bagua City, Pang Jian spent most of his time huddled in a dark world filled with filthy supernatural powers.
Pang Jian is obviously familiar with the atmosphere of the fifth realm.
"Cyclops, Ice Rock City, Sky-Splitting City..."
Pang Jian murmured in his heart.
At this time, he wanted to take another look at the situation of the Sky-Splitting City in the fifth realm through the dark giant anaconda.
Split Sky City is also the city of Cyclops. The descended goddess may still be in Split Sky City, discussing with the Cyclops about ascending to heaven.
As soon as his mind moved, he concentrated and meditated using the "Hutian Qi Nourishing Technique", preparing to establish perception with the dark giant anaconda.
"Hoo! Hoo!"
As soon as he entered the state of "Hu Tian Qi Nourishing Technique", the harsh icy atmosphere in the altar suddenly poured into his spiritual sea.
In the blink of an eye, Pang Jian's eyebrows and hair were covered with frost.
"Come down quickly!"
Luo Hongyan shouted in surprise.
She felt something was not good, and said quickly: "Ling Yun inspired the power of the altar, and this place became extremely cold. This is how he killed Wang Yisen!"
She was afraid that Pang Jian's body and soul would be frozen to pieces inside the altar, and that Pang Jian would die instantly.
"I am okay."
Pang Jian, whose eyebrows and hair were covered with frost, felt it silently and said: "I want to practice through this altar. I can... absorb the extreme cold power in it, and my body and soul can withstand these cold powers. "
Luo Hongyan was stunned, her eyebrows moved, and she said in surprise: "What do you mean?"
"The cold power is beneficial to me!"
Pang Jian drank lightly.
Luo Hongyan's eyes showed strange color and she nodded lightly.
"You don't have to stay here, I'll be fine."
Pang Jian said again.
"no."
Luo Hongyan shook her head, she insisted on staying.
So Pang Jian stopped saying anything, stopped trying to communicate with the dark giant anaconda, and let go to absorb the extreme cold power in the altar with the "Hutian Qi Nourishing Technique".
In a short time, he turned into an ice sculpture covered in ice, and his limbs glowed with ice.
Luo Hongyan on the side could clearly see a lot of cold light, like ice and lightning, flying out from various places on the altar and instantly escaping into Pang Jian's body, which turned into an ice sculpture.
Gradually, another white cold air rose from the crack under the altar, surrounding the ice sculpture-like Pang Jian.
The Great Stone Hall is no longer so cold and unbearable, and the temperature is gradually rising.
Due to the shattering of the altar, the extremely cold atmosphere that escaped from it is now all concentrated again on the altar.
on the ground.
"strangeness……"
Gao Yuan pulled off a storage bag from the body of a casual cultivator and looked at his feet with strange eyes.
The cold rocks on the soles of his feet no longer froze the soles of his feet, and the cold air no longer penetrated his body.
The climate of Bingyan Island seems to be undergoing subtle changes.
Deep underground.
Pang Jian closed his eyes and concentrated, turning into an ice sculpture, sitting on the altar used by the Cyclops to communicate with the ice demon.
He felt like he was in a dry and cold world of nothingness, rather than the huge stone palace beneath Ice Rock City.
As the extremely cold power gathered, a small... ice pool slowly appeared in his spiritual sea filled with spiritual power.
The ice pool and the flame pool are not far apart, like islands embedded in his spiritual sea, slowly gathering bunches of icy power.
Inside the ice pond, the power of extreme cold quickly condensed and turned into crystal ice.
At the same time, there were also many fragmentary scenes that slipped into Pang Jian's mind.
In a daze, Pang Jian saw a scene that had happened before.
The sun hung high in the sky, and many complete lands above his head filled his eyes.
As if his back was against the sky, he looked down at a huge piece of broken ground and saw the ice rock city that had not collapsed or collapsed.
In the majestic and majestic city, there are many Cyclops moving around, making fires and cooking with crude stone tools.
A Cyclops dozens of feet tall, a majestic male wearing only an animal skin around his waist, carrying a ferocious beast of a high level, letting out a hearty laugh, and stepped out of a glittering golden mountain range.
One giant in particular stands out.
He is taller than all the tribesmen, with an aura as majestic as the mountains and seas, with a strange light green snake surrounding his waist, and holding a giant ax that seems to be able to open the sky.
He led the hunting tribesmen into Ice Rock City with a long smile, and was admired and cheered by the tribesmen along the way.
"Wow!"
The scene changed.
The most majestic Cyclops leader, kneeling on one knee, holding a young one-eyed baby in the palm of his broad left hand.
His single eye turned red, like a pool of water slowly forming.
He saw a shrunken heart shaped like a walnut in his child's chest, with vitality slowly draining away.
"Aman!"
The old patriarch lowered his head and sobbed, unable to accept the cruel fact that his bloodline heir would die shortly after birth.
In the days that followed, the Cyclops patriarch began to feel depressed all day long.
In order to save the life of his child named Aman, he took out the ancient stone tools of his clan, dug a huge stone hall underground, placed a huge incense burner, and created an altar that could be used to communicate with the ice demon.
His grandfather Zeng Qian warned Wan not to use forbidden arts and altars, and not to communicate with the ice demon.
But he did not follow the instructions of his ancestors.
As the black smoke rose from the huge incense burner, he successfully established a connection between the altar and the ice demon who did not know where he was.
At the instruction of the ice demon, he took out soaring snakes, spirit turtles, huge red fruits and other objects to sacrifice, in exchange for a green juice that could extend life from the ice demon.
Ah Man's shrunken heart stopped losing vitality due to taking those strange green juices.
His youngest son Aman survived.
