Chapter 56: Silver Pupil

  The Nan Yi envoys went to the Heavenly Mountains, accompanied by He Haoran, Chen Yihui and Tuoba Lie. Yu Ziling also bid farewell without hesitation, and the greedy Tianxia Tienshi quietly left as well. The Qingyan Mountain returned to its former tranquility once again.

  Ji Changkong continued his own cultivation.

  Inside the ice cave.

  A figure in white misty cold fog, holding a jug of ten times stronger fire dragon liquor, step by step walking towards the central icy cold water pond.

  Tick-tock!

  A drop of water from the icicle above fell onto Ji Changkong's shoulder, and the icy air seemed to slither into his body like an ice snake, making him feel as if he had fallen into an icy cave, with his hands and feet stiffening up.

  Gulu! Gulu!

  A few large mouthfuls of fiery dragon entered the abdomen, feeling the fiercely burning liquor boiling inside the body. The original energy in the body quickly circulated a cycle, and that icy cold feeling immediately disappeared without a trace.

  With firm steps, Ji Changkong walked step by step to the cold pond, his shoulders already wet from the dripping water, and a thread of icy cold air seeped into his five organs, causing his teeth to chatter.

  In front of us, a vast expanse of cold air spreads out, the water in the pool is icy and chilling. Just getting close makes one's hands and feet feel cold, making you want to retreat immediately.

  Taking a deep breath, Ji Changkong gulped down several more mouthfuls of Huo Long Shao, then suddenly stepped forward and entered the icy pool.

  In an instant, a shocking chill, like icy dragons, seemed to entwine Ji Changkong tightly.

  It was just a moment of breathing, and Ji Changkong, who had just stepped into the water pool, was already frozen into an ice sculpture. A layer of crystal clear ice appeared on his body surface, and at a glance, Ji Changkong seemed to have become a living fossil trapped in ice for many years.

  An extremely cold air was flowing inside his body, and wherever the cold air passed, Ji Chang's bones, meridians seemed to freeze together. The speed of the flow of yuan force inside his body suddenly slowed down by more than ten times, and as the cold air continued to penetrate, the speed of the flow of yuan force was still slowing down!

  At this rate, it won't be long before all the functions in his body come to a standstill. It's really possible that he'll become an ice sculpture forever, and without external force, it's absolutely impossible to break free from the icy shackles!

  The cold air is too intense!

  The only thing that was not affected was Ji Changkong's consciousness. Under the astonishing cold air, his consciousness did not become dizzy at all, but instead became clearer than ever before. He could clearly feel every bone, every piece of skin and flesh, and even every cell in his body changing under the cold air.

  The fierce flame of the Fire Dragon's Blaze that had just been poured down was suddenly chilled by the cold air, like a fire that had been extinguished, and did not allow Ji Changkong to feel any burning sensation inside his body again.

  What's wrong?

  The princess's heart was burning with anxiety, she wanted to pick up the fire dragon in her hand and take a sip, but unfortunately, her hands and feet were all frozen, under the shocking cold air, her body couldn't move at all, although her consciousness was still there, her limbs had lost control!

  Right at this moment!

  Ji Changkong felt the blood in his body suddenly boiling up!

  His innate energy had not been activated, but the blood in his body was like a galloping horse, suddenly surging and crashing inside him. Wherever the blood passed, it seeped into the chill that had penetrated his body, gradually dissipating it like ice and snow at the first thaw.

  Under the influence of boiling blood, the fire dragon in his abdomen also began to take effect. The intense heat spread from his lower abdomen throughout his body, and his frozen limbs suddenly regained mobility.

  Wow!

  A mouthful of icy air was spat out by Ji Changkong, who hastily raised the large half-tankard of Huolong wine in his hand and drank it dry, tossing the empty tankard aside with a flick of his wrist.

  Blood and liquor in the body seemed to be burning, and the yuan force was also driven to circulate rapidly in the body.

  Took another step forward.

  She slowly crouched down, with half of her body submerged in the icy pool, continuing to struggle against the cold energy within. Using the power of her blood, wine and yuan force, she resisted the astonishing chill.

  After a while, Ji Changkong felt that the Huolong wine in his body had been burned out, and another jar of Huolong wine was taken out from the mustard seed bag. He drank it all without leaving a single drop, and then threw the empty jar away, continuing to fight against the cold air.

  The last time at Du Long Tan, Luo Tian left behind five jars of terrifying Huo Long Zao. At the time, he drank three jars and left two jars specifically for his cultivation at Han Tang. Now, the last two jars of fierce Huo Long Zao have been completely used up, and Ji Changkong has become calm instead, knowing that from now on there is no more Huo Long Zao to rely on, everything must depend on himself.

  His heart was as calm as water, and suddenly he entered the "state of no self", at this moment, he forgot all the troubles, his spirit was empty and vast, as if he had merged with the icy cave and the deep pool.

  The empty and quiet princess, fundamentally unaware of her body's condition, was simply circulating the yuan force within her body repeatedly.

  ……

  Time slipped away quietly and unnoticed, and a month had already passed.

  Ji Changkong sat with his eyes closed in the shallow pool, transformed into an enormous ice sculpture, crystal clear thick ice blocks imprisoning him at the very center of the sculpture.

  The water in the cold pond has dried up for some unknown reason...

  A thread of visible cold aura flowed on the surface of the thick ice rock, seeping into Ji Changkong's body and mixing with his internal yuan force, all of which was sent to Ji Changkong's eyes. With his eyes closed, even his eyelids shone like jade.

  The year-round frosty white mist in the ice cave gradually lost its biting cold air, and the temperature of the ice cave actually increased a little bit.

  Time flies, another month has passed.

  The ice that covered the entire body of Ji Changkong began to melt gradually, and the water flows that gathered again in the pool no longer had a terrifying chill.

  It was as if all the chill in the air had vanished into thin air during this time.

  Another month.

  The thick layer of ice on the body of Princess Cháng Kōng had completely melted, and the white mist inside the icy cave was gone. Even the icicles at the top of the cave were no longer dripping with eerie water droplets.

  In a daze, consciousness gradually recovered, and Ji Changkong only felt that his eyes were icy cold and piercing to the bone, unbearably painful.

  He suddenly opened his eyes, and two bright, star-like cold lights burst out of his eyes.

  In an instant, it was no longer in the icy cold ice cave, and once again became desolate!

  Ah!

  He let out a startled cry as he clearly saw two silver-white glints, changing direction with the movement of his pupils.

  Lowering one's head to gaze at the pond water.

  In an instant, two cold gleams shot into the water pool, and the water pool that was emitting cold air suddenly froze into solid ice.

  His heart was filled with terror, and Ji Changkong hastily closed his eyes, carefully sensing for a moment. Suddenly, he discovered that his own eyes seemed to contain the chilling aura of the Ice Cave, which was extremely terrifying, making him feel shocked and frightened, unsure what was happening.

  Still as water, calm your mind, calm your mind.

  Constantly reminding herself, Ji Changkong tried to calm down and slowly sensed the abnormality in her pupils.

  Suddenly, Ji Changkong discovered that the cold air in his pupils seemed to change with his mood and flow in his pupils. When he calmed down, those terrifying cold airs were also very calm, just hidden in his pupils, and would not flow wildly.

  After a moment of careful feeling, Ji Changkong adjusted his mood, letting the cold air in his pupils remain still and motionless, then slowly opened his eyes.

  Everything is as usual, and her eyes no longer shoot out cold glints.

  It's okay, it's okay. Ji Changkong let out a sigh of relief and looked down at the frozen pond, only to find that his pupils were still pitch black and shining like stars, seemingly without any abnormalities.

  With a thought, Ji Changkong slowly activated the cold energy in his eyes.

  Suddenly, Ji Changkong's originally pitch-black pupils changed along with his thoughts, gradually turning silver-white!

  Two strands of icy silver-white light shot out from his silver-white pupils once again, and the frozen pool beneath him solidified into thick ice. A vast expanse of white mist wafted out, and the temperature in the Ice Cave began to plummet rapidly!

  Heavens, what's going on here?

  ……
