Chapter 1089 I also saw a statue, and... a Nautilus conch!
Following the direction indicated by the Blizzard Bear Demon King, Xiao Hei, and after the Titan Snow Demon King had run wildly for nearly half an hour, Huo Yuhao's powerful eyesight finally caught sight of a vast icy sea in the distance.
"It's right here," said Blizzard Bear Demon King Little Black.
Titan Snow Demon King nodded and walked towards a undulating mountain range.
Huo Yuhao stepped onto the mountain range on the floating ice. He had just seen that the opposite side of the mountain range was an ice shore facing the sea.
Large amounts of ice floes drifted in the dark blue sea.
"The icy sea, the long-lost moisture," Huo Yuhao murmured to himself.
He gazed at the icy sea, lost in thought.
Blizzard Bear Demon King Xiao Hei carefully examined the mountains, searching for his previous tracks.
"This way." The Blizzard Bear King found the traces he had left behind.
Titan Snow Demon King walked to the side of the mountain range, sat down to rest, and waited for Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao followed the Blizzard Bear Demon King as they explored their way into the mountains.
The official entrance to the marked trail is a naturally formed cave.
Huo Yuhao shone his flashlight into the cave. There were many soul beasts inside, but they were all trembling in fear under the influence of the ferocious power emanating from the Titan Snow Demon King, hiding and not daring to show themselves.
The cave connects to the mountain and extends diagonally downwards.
Huo Yuhao encountered many strange creatures from the icy caves, including small soul beasts such as cave bats, ice crystal lizards, and ice moths, which were adapted to the cold.
"Yuhao, this journey will be quite long. I came here hoping to find a place suitable for survival," the Blizzard Bear Demon King reminded him.
Huo Yuhao nodded. Judging from the surrounding environment, the cave was probably very long and might even run through the mountains.
Once you get deeper underground, the road ahead suddenly becomes flat.
"There is an underground cave here, with many soul beasts inside, but none of them are particularly powerful," the Blizzard Bear Demon King reminded again.
This made Huo Yuhao even more curious: what exactly was down there?
I never expected there would be an underground cave here.
Based on what the Blizzard Bear King said at the beginning, Huo Yuhao guessed that this cave route was too long and too deep underground, so much so that it encountered an icy ocean current that had seeped into the ground.
However, adhering to the principle that one should not leave a treasure unclaimed, Huo Yuhao was still very interested.
After advancing for about fifteen minutes, Huo Yuhao saw the underground cave that the Blizzard Bear Demon King had mentioned.
It was an unusually spacious area, where a large number of mushrooms that emitted blue light grew.
These mushrooms have a crystalline structure on their surface, like ice crystals, but they don't exude a chill.
Huo Yuhao transformed his hands into black jade and plucked two flowers to keep.
These mushrooms are the only plants here, and they might have some amazing uses.
Some ice-attribute insects and large ice cave spiders that were operating in the shadows were already approaching Huo Yuhao.
The Blizzard Bear King let out a roar, which intimidated the other creatures.
"The real entrance is just ahead; beneath that great crack lies the treasure land."
Following the guidance of the Blizzard Bear Demon King, Huo Yuhao arrived at the center of the cave, where there was a huge crack that was hundreds of meters long.
Looking down through the crack, you can see a thick layer of ice and soil.
When you shine a light on it, the ice layer appears dark.
Huo Yuhao felt a chill emanating from it.
"This is it. I couldn't go into the ice layer below because I was too big," said the Blizzard Bear Demon King.
Three streams of light emerged from between Huo Yuhao's eyebrows and floated in mid-air; these were the remaining three soul spirits.
"There's very powerful energy down there! Yuhao, be careful!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said with a serious expression.
"I only sensed a rather powerful ice-attribute energy below," Hyotei said.
At this moment, Ice Bear King Xiaobai scratched its head. It hadn't sensed anything. Should it say something?
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm approached the crack, its golden antennae, resembling ribbons, swaying slowly as it carefully sensed the area.
"Yuhao, I'm sure there's a very strong energy reaction down there, including ice-attribute energy. But below is an unknown depth, where permafrost and eternal ice intertwine, so the situation could be very complicated."
"But you probably also have a feeling that something good is calling us from down here!"
As Tianmeng Bingcan finished speaking, Bingdi and the other spirits turned to look at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao immediately understood the meaning of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, and the Eye of Destiny opened between his brows.
The power of fate slowly dispelled the fog that shrouded him.
Huo Yuhao unleashed his spiritual power, and his spiritual probe spread downwards.
One hundred meters, two hundred meters, five hundred meters.
When they reached a height of over 500 meters, a surge of energy suddenly blocked Huo Yuhao's mental power.
The next moment, the power of fate extended an invitation to Huo Yuhao.
"Um?"
Huo Yuhao's vision was instantly pulled into a strange perspective.
From his perspective, he saw the dimly lit hall, illuminated by a faint light.
Crystal, gallery, a statue holding a weapon aloft, with a conch shell in its arms bearing patterns familiar to Huo Yuhao.
"What is this?!"
Before Huo Yuhao could observe it closely, his vision returned to itself, and all he could see was the crack.
"Yuhao, what did you see?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm approached.
Huo Yuhao, still shaken, glanced around.
The four spirits remained, and the surroundings were completely silent.
"What...did I just see?"
Huo Yuhao calmed himself down and looked at the crack.
"Brother Tianmeng, I think I was just connected to mentally by something below?"
Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was slightly taken aback at first, and then a look of joy appeared on the insect's head.
"Could it be a treasure capable of channeling spiritual energy?!"
If it's really as it thinks, then this trip is absolutely necessary.
"I also saw a statue, and... a nautilus!"
Tianmeng Bingcan's joyful expression froze on her face.
Of course it knew about the Nautilus; it was the legendary object that Huo Yuhao had been searching for, capable of prophecy.
It concerns Ye Nanxiao's future.
"Yuhao, are you sure you're not mistaken?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm asked cautiously.
In fact, a long time ago, Tianmeng Bingcan felt that every word Ye Nanxiao told Huo Yuhao made a lot of sense.
There's no need to overthink things.
The latest novel is first published here!
Just as Ye Nanxiao said, no matter what the future holds, we should stay true to ourselves, pursue our original aspirations, and forge ahead no matter what obstacles we face, even if we are rivals.
In its view, Huo Yuhao's obsession with finding the Nautilus and seeking a better future for everyone is meaningless.
The future changes because of people. Who knows if it will also change because we know the future now?
However, Huo Yuhao didn't listen to him. He directly took out a mining suit from the starlight sapphire ring.
"Brother Tianmeng, if you don't try some things, you'll regret it."
Huo Yuhao gripped the vibratory drill and began to widen the crack.
Ice Emperor glanced at Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, then took Little White and Little Black to widen the crack.
Unlike Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, she would do anything that would benefit Huo Yuhao.
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was slightly distracted and didn't say anything more. Since Huo Yuhao had made up his mind, she would accompany him to do it.
The crack quickly expanded to tens of meters.
Huo Yuhao looked inside and saw that the cracks in the lower layers were likely to get bigger and bigger.
"let's go."
Huo Yuhao donned an astronaut experimental suit and, stepping on floating ice, carefully descended into the crevice.
There was no earthy smell as I had expected, only a strong chill.
Huo Yuhao's descent was very fast, almost like free fall.
The dark gold claws popped out, covered in a layer of frost.
Since fusing with the left arm bone of the Blizzard Bear Demon King, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw can be imbued with ultimate ice.
The Blizzard Bear Demon King, Little Black, let out a low roar, and a large amount of snow shot out like bullets, shattering the ice shards blocking its path.
One hundred meters, two hundred meters, five hundred meters.
After a long descent, Huo Yuhao finally stepped onto a layer of solid ice.
It was a layer of solid ice that was different from the surrounding ice.
The surrounding ice is naturally formed and appears as a thick, deep blue layer under the lights.
The ice layer beneath Huo Yuhao's feet was different; it was a crystal-clear ice layer.
It is a product of soul power.
Huo Yuhao squatted down and reached out to touch the crystal-clear ice layer, his face gradually becoming solemn.
"Tianmeng-ge, Hyotei, I can't sense this layer of ice!"
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm transformed into a young boy and stood beside Huo Yuhao. Ice Emperor raised his hand, condensed the Ice Emperor's Turtle, and smashed it down hard on the crystal-clear ice.
Even the Ice Emperor, who possesses the ultimate ice, failed to break through the almost transparent ice layer when he launched his attack.
"Huh? How is this possible?" Hyotei was somewhat incredulous, and she continued to wield Hyotei's Claw.
Despite her relentless and fierce attacks, the crystal-clear ice remained completely unscathed.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm fell silent. It had once fallen into an unknown depth of a glacial crevice, but it had never seen such a magical ice layer.
"It seems that what you are looking for, Yuhao, is very likely a ruin, which is why there are protective measures to prevent outsiders from entering."
Upon hearing the words "ruins," Hyotei trembled slightly, then his eyes lit up with a green light, and he leaped up, a streak of green hair flowing out from behind him.
The most terrifying attack method of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion.
The turquoise light crashed down onto the ice.
Hyotei's tail hook successfully pierced the crystal-clear ice, leaving only a small hole about the size of a thumb.
"Depend on!"
Hyotei couldn't help but swear.
Huo Yuhao reached out and touched the crystal-clear ice layer. He couldn't sense it, but he could touch it.
Ice Bear King Xiaobai and Blizzard Bear Demon King Xiaohei landed one after the other, their two pairs of paws striking the same spot one after the other, like pounding rice cakes.
Huo Yuhao pondered quietly, then looked up and exchanged a glance with Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, his spiritual power emanating from his body.
The ice layer that could block Hyotei's tail hook could not block Huo Yuhao's mental power.
Huo Yuhao continued to channel his mental energy, forming a mental clone inside the crystalline ice layer.
Huo Yuhao then transferred his mental energy to his mental clone.
