Bang~~
As a Grandmaster Level peak powerhouse, the True Qi within his body was extrely rich and powerful. When it surged with full force, it was indeed a terrifying thing.
He only heard a crisp sound beside his ear, and Qin Fang imdiately felt his frozen fingers suddenly beco free. The thick layer of solid ice was cracked by his surging True Qi and fell off his fingers automatically...
"Hmm..."
This scene imdiately caused a slight change in Qin Fang's expression. His eyes revealed a glimr of excitent, as if he had thought of sothing.
"Perhaps... this is the way!"
Looking at the solid ice that had shattered into several pieces on the ground, if put together, they would fit perfectly over Qin Fang's fingers.
However, even now that they were shattered, they still maintained a fairly complete shape.
Of course, that's not the main point, the main point is... Qin Fang's True Qi could easily break the solid ice that he couldn't even chip before. This equated to Qin Fang finding a suitable opportunity to dive to the bottom of the Cold Abyss.
After hesitating for a mont, Qin Fang imdiately subrged one arm entirely into the Cold Abyss, fully imrsing it within.
Almost in a very short ti, a thick layer of ice imdiately ford, completely sealing Qin Fang's arm without any visible gaps or leaks.
But Qin Fang did not show any change in expression, as this was within his expectations, of course, he wouldn't find it strange.
Bang~~
True Qi surged and the thick layer of ice cracked on response, shattering into pieces that fell to the ground.
"It really seems to work..."
The second experint was also successful. No matter how the ice outside was struck, it remained solid, but from the inside, the ice seed to beco very fragile, completely unable to withstand Qin Fang's True Qi shock.
At the sa ti, Qin Fang vaguely discovered that the thickness of this layer of ice seed to have limitations—once it reached approximately three centiters, it stopped getting any thicker, maintaining that thickness...
And the ice with this thickness couldn't withstand Qin Fang's True Qi shock at all. He could easily crack it, allowing Qin Fang to escape.
"Once more..."
This discovery was still just Qin Fang's hypothesis. To be certain, he needed to verify it through repeated experints.
This ti Qin Fang was more ruthless, directly imrsing his lower body fully into the water. Without any suspense, that half of his body was imdiately encased completely in solid ice, becoming very heavy. If Qin Fang wasn't pressing his hands on the stones at the edge of the Cold Abyss, he might have sunk completely by now.
Bang~~
This ti Qin Fang did not lift his body out before initiating the True Qi shock but used it while half his body was still in the water.
A faint sound could be heard, and slight ripples appeared on the water's surface, while the ice encasing Qin Fang's legs below cracked imdiately.
Unexpectedly, the ice, which should have refrozen him imdiately, did not reform as quickly. Instead, it paused for about five seconds before starting to freeze again, and the speed was not as instantaneous as it had been before.
"Could it be... this is the way to break the predicant?"
This discovery surprised Qin Fang greatly, as if he had found a solution to the problem. A sliver of excitent welled up in him.
Although soon Qin Fang's lower body froze up again, the previous helplessness and worry on his face were gone, replaced with growing confidence.
Repeated experints with True Qi shocks to break the ice layer further confird that Qin Fang's hypothesis wasn't rely a guess, gradually forming into a fact.
Moreover, Qin Fang found that the more he broke the ice layer, the slower it froze back. This was quite favorable, enabling Qin Fang to move a small distance in the water using this ti gap.
After finishing multiple experints, Qin Fang estimated that the battle outside was nearing its end. To avoid prolonging the issue, he could not afford further delays.
"Success or failure depends on this move..."
He took a slight breath for underwater breathing and resolutely leapt into the Cold Abyss. With almost visible speed, he was enveloped in a thick layer of ice and began to sink slowly towards the bottom.
The sinking speed wasn't fast, nor was it too slow. The ice remained the sa thickness without increasing as he sank further down.
Encased in the thick ice layer, Qin Fang could barely see anything through the ice, so he relied on the Mini-map Function to navigate.
Granted, this function was adept at finding enemies, but beneath the Cold Abyss where there wasn't a single Ghost Shadow, it seed sowhat redundant.
However, this didn't disturb Qin Fang, as the Mini-map also highlighted important items like Spiritual dicine, ore, and treasures—though those needed to be within a certain close proximity to be detectable, unlike enemy searching, which was more straightforward.
For a treasure like the Thousand-Year Cold Jade, once it appeared on the Mini-map, it indicated that Qin Fang was quite near it—which was why he was willing to slowly descend while encased in the thick ice layer.
Sealed within the ice, his movents were severely restricted, but this saved him a lot of trouble, allowing him to reach the Cold Abyss bottom with ease and approach the Thousand-Year Cold Jade effortlessly.
Of course, Qin Fang wasn't without preparation for returning to the surface later.
He specifically carried a slender steel wire with him, one end tied to his body, the other staying on the water's surface, stretchable and retractable, accompanying Qin Fang as he descended.
This was in case of ergencies, leveraging the wire's strength to help swim back up to the surface faster if necessary...
While the ice block continued to descend slowly, Qin Fang clearly felt the outside temperature drop more, noticeable even from inside the ice—indicating that he was getting closer to the Thousand-Year Cold Jade.
Luckily, the temperature drop didn't thicken the ice further, allowing Qin Fang so assurance; if it did thicken again, he would have to abandon the plan and return to the surface to strategize anew.
"Thousand-Year Cold Jade..."
After nearly three minutes of descending, a green dot finally appeared on Qin Fang's Mini-map, and his Scouting Skill was imdiately deployed, bringing an excited smile to his face.
Having toiled for so long, he finally saw the target...
At this mont, the Thousand-Year Cold Jade was just under two ters directly beneath Qin Fang. If the ice continued to descend, he might soon land right on it.
"This Thousand-Year Cold Jade is mine..."
Just a little bit more and he could reach the Thousand-Year Cold Jade. Once touched, Qin Fang could collect it effortlessly, unlike others.
Two ters...
One ter...
Fifty centiters...
Thirty centiters...
The distance was getting closer and closer. Qin Fang could barely contain himself as his whole body surged with True Qi, producing successive banging sounds beside his ears. The ice encasing him cracked into countless fissures and exploded rapidly...
Almost simultaneously as the ice exploded and Qin Fang joyously broke free, he reached out towards the Thousand-Year Cold Jade with the fastest speed...(to be continued.
