Chapter 662: Chapter 662: Everything Because of a Fellow Daoist Named Lu Chen!

"Huff—"

"Huff—"

"Huff—"

The ice demons had become ice sculptures, completely sealing the surroundings.

Xuan Jian’s eyes were closed as he clearly heard the approaching breaths drawing nearer.

Apparently, considering that Xuan Jian could no longer escape or struggle in his death throes, the movements of the ancient beast were slow.

Inching closer, the pressure in Xuan Jian’s heart also increased significantly.

He had been careless.

He had only considered the hearts of men but had not accounted for the presence of a beast he had never seen before.

In this land of ice, with his realm being restricted, he was completely at a disadvantage.

It wasn’t that he lacked strength.

But he was constrained at every turn!

He knew his end was near, but he was not willing to accept it.

This feeling, he hadn’t experienced it in a long time...

"Huff—"

He could already feel the breath of the ancient beast, merely inches away from him.

But suddenly.

In the midst of the chaotic ice winds, he heard a faint "hiss."

Mixed within it was a flicker of a familiar sensation.

Xuan Yun Sword Qi?

He opened his eyes wide and locked them onto the beast’s eyeball, which was as large as his own head.

"When has Xuan Jian ever chosen to wait for death? Only the end of my lifespan or the Heavenly Dao can claim my life!"

Spiritual Power had already dissipated greatly.

But this only prevented him from using Teleportation and ensured he couldn’t safely escape from here.

It did not render him utterly powerless!

"Shadowless Sword!"

He chanted softly, condensing the last bit of his remaining Spiritual Power into the needle-like Shadowless Sword!

"Whoosh—"

At such close range, the Shadowless Sword was almost undetectable, and its speed was extremely fast!

A subtle noise pierced one of the eyes of the ancient beast!

"Roar—"

The roar of the beast erupted.

The ancient beast howled, causing the surrounding ice sculptures to shatter into icy fragments!

Immediately after, the chaotic ice wind turned into a storm of ice demons, and in a blink, into a giant ice demon as big as the beast itself!

The ancient beast was retreating.

But the giant paw of the ice demon struck down hard from above Xuan Jian’s head!

For the ancient beast.

The life or death of Xuan Jian wasn’t important.

The only difference to it was whether to swallow whole or to taste the minced flesh!

But at that moment.

An ice wall suddenly emerged from the midst of the demon winds!

"Hiss—"

It wasn’t an ice wall, it was a wall of snakes!

It was a wall made of Xuanming Ice Snakes!

"Ancestor! Your disciple has arrived late, please punish me!"

The voice of Chu Zhongtian echoed amidst the demon winds!

A Shadowless Sword, flying through the wind, was supporting the resigned Xuan Jian!

"Zhong Tian!"

Old tears streamed down Xuan Jian’s face.

He had come to save Chu Zhongtian.

But as it turned out.

It was Chu Zhongtian who saved him!

A disciple at the Foundation Establishment Stage had saved me, a mighty figure who dominated the Cultivation World of Zhongyu!

"Roar—"

Missing its target, the ice demon’s paw slammed heavily onto the icy ground.

Finally, cracks appeared in the ice!

Meanwhile, the ancient beast squinted its only eye and lunged towards the flying Xuan Jian!

A cooked cultivator was flying away, and it had paid the price of an eye; how could it bear this?

But again, at this moment!

A thick, ice-blue shadow, like an arm, shot out from the cracks in the ice, flying towards its remaining solitary eye!

"Hiss—"

It was the young snake leader!

With its forked tongue and demon Qi, it was also exuding sharp icy spikes!

The eyes are the most vulnerable part of a person.

And they are also the weakest part of a beast!

"Roar—"

The solitary eye of the ancient beast burst out with ice-blue demon blood!

The ice wind was chaotic, the demon wind even more so!

And the aura of that demon blood began to spread!

Injured by the ancient beast, the ice demon shattered thunderously.

The young snakes within the snake wall also rapidly dispersed, swarming towards the beast, greedily devouring the demon blood, demon Qi, and... the flesh of the ancient beast!

"Roar..."

"Roar!"

"Roar."

The beast’s roars turned into wails and then abruptly stopped.

Chu Zhongtian, supporting Xuan Jian, watched this scene in utter shock.

In front of them, there was another wall of snakes, shielding them from the ice wind and thus preventing the two from freezing into ice sculptures.

Chu Zhongtian swallowed hard, deeply grateful, and wished for these young snakes to also feast so they wouldn’t be weaker than their peers in the future.

But then he thought if they did go, both he and his ancestor would be in trouble.

The beast’s last breath was drawn, with an empty eye socket to show for it.

The young snake leader emerged from within the eye socket, its aura now extraordinary.

"Hiss—"

It hissed, and the young snakes winding around the body of the ancient beast quickly withdrew, condensing again into a snake wall!

"Hiss—"

With another hiss, the snake wall moved back in front of Chu Zhongtian, blocking the ice wind for him.

And the original snake wall, bursting apart, swarmed towards the ancient beast.

Xuan Jian was overwhelmingly shocked, "Zhong Tian, how did you... communicate with the Xuanming Ice Snakes?"

Chu Zhongtian knew his ancestor had misunderstood.

But he simply explained with a short sentence.

"Ancestor, it all started because of a friend named Lu Chen. Without him, not only would I be dead, but I also wouldn’t have been able to save you!"
