Chapter 793: Chapter 870: Immortal and Indestructible, Resurrection?
“I know you care about your junior sister, but rashly going down like this could cost you your life!” Zhao Han emphasized.
“I can’t care about that now.”
Chen Nan patted Zhao Han on the shoulder and jumped directly into the tripod.
This three-legged round tripod might only appear four ters tall from the outside, yet inside it ford a separate Heaven and Earth, much like a storage ring, containing a spatial formation with a depth of tens of ters.
With a drop of tens of ters, if Chen Nan were to fall like that, he would not die but would certainly be seriously injured, which is why he executed the Slaughter God Seven Steps as he descended.
With the first step, he steadied himself after a ten-ter fall, followed by the second and then the third step.
After the fifth step, Chen Nan was less than ten ters from the bottom of the tripod, and he landed steadily on the bottom. He scanned the surroundings, the tripod engraved with a spatial formation, forming its own domain, with an area of almost five hundred square ters at the base.
Looking at the severed limb more than ten ters away, from which cold air continually seeped, Chen Nan shivered violently, the blood in his body flowing faster once again.
The severed limb was as white and flawless as mutton-fat jade; its delicate fingers still showed hints of rosiness, not resembling a severed limb at all but as if it were growing from a human body, not at all like a necrotic severed limb.
“Be careful!” Zhao Han shouted from above.
“Don’t worry, I’m fine.”
Chen Nan took step by step towards the severed limb, the air growing colder as he approached it.
Chen Nan faintly felt that if it weren’t for his exceptional constitution, his blood able to resist the cold on its own, he would probably be completely frozen by now.
Approaching the limb, Chen Nan clenched his teeth and bent down to grasp it.
Life and death hung in this very mont.
If the heat of his blood flow couldn’t withstand the cold and froze, his death was certain; if it could, then he would be able to retrieve the limb, and perhaps there would be a way to suppress his junior sister’s Poison Fire.
However, when he actually touched the limb, Chen Nan realized he was mistaken.
He had assud the limb would be bone-chillingly cold, yet the mont he touched it, he felt a trace of warmth, the normal temperature of a human body.
That severed limb still had warmth!
The limb, grabbed in his hands, almost made Chen Nan release it in fright.
The limb had been severed for who knows how many years and still retained human-normal warmth, so where was all this cold air coming from? Could it not be emanating from the limb itself?
Even more baffling, despite the extrely low temperatures, not only did the limb retain warmth, but its skin was also smooth and delicate upon touch, resembling that of a living person’s limb with not the slightest stiffness.
Chen Nan forced himself not to throw the limb away.
Looking at the limb that seed no different from that of a living person, Chen Nan focused on the crystal ring on the delicate finger.
The limb had warmth; clearly, the cold air was not coming from the limb itself. Then, could these icy chills be coming from the crystal ring?
Chen Nan extended his other hand towards the ring.
But the mont his fingertip touched the ring, an overwhelming icy breath rushed at him, his entire palm losing all sensation instantaneously. Chen Nan quickly retracted his hand by leveraging the strength of the limb, managing to escape the bitter cold. Only after accelerating the blood flow did his hand gradually regain feeling.
All this cold air was emanating from this crystal ring after all.
This ring was the true Extre Cold Treasure!
Initially, Chen Nan thought the person to whom the severed limb belonged must have practiced ice-cold-attribute cultivation techniques, but now it seed that might not be the case.
Yet, after so many years severed, and in such a frigid environnt, the limb maintained a normal temperature, which implied the forr owner’s cultivation level had to be extrely high.
“What are you dawdling for? Hurry up and co back!” Zhao Han yelled.
Chen Nan summoned his True Qi and kicked off the bottom of the tripod, his body shooting upwards with a clangorous noise.
With the first step of the Slaughter God Seven Steps taken, Chen Nan’s body shot up more than ten ters high, then step after step, he continued to climb upwards.
As gravity took its toll, jumping upwards was definitely not as effortless as descending, and by the ti Chen Nan had completed the seventh step, he was still nearly ten ters from the edge of the Large Tripod, with no foothold beneath him to take another step.
“Go!”
Zhao Han cast a spell, and a Flying Sword plunged toward the center of the tripod.
Just as Chen Nan was about to fall down, the Flying Sword landed under his feet. Driven by Zhao Han, it flew upward, eventually settling on the edge of the Large Tripod.
The two of them jumped off the Large Tripod and landed on the ground.
Zhao Han looked at the severed arm in Chen Nan’s hand and wondered, “Are you saying this arm is still warm?”
“Yeah, don’t believe ? Feel it yourself,” Chen Nan reached out his hand.
Zhao Han quickly took a step back, “No thanks, I’d like to live a few more years. Getting frozen to death isn’t a good way to go, unlike you, you freak, who can dive into the tripod and not freeze to death.”
Chen Nan forced a smile, finding his own constitution strange.
At this mont, the Black Feathered Chicken squawked, “Stop yapping, you two, and hurry up. I have a weird feeling about this basent.”
Chen Nan nodded, just about to head back to the main hall when, at this instant—
“Boom…”
The ground shook, and suddenly a hole appeared on the stone wall next to the Large Tripod.
Moreover, this hole was getting bigger and bigger.
This was a chanical Door!
The hole was enlarging because the chanical Door was slowly opening.
Chen Nan was stunned, could there be so mystery behind this chanical Door?
Having already obtained the Extre Cold Treasure, he could have left, but curiosity is human nature, the inclination to explore the unknown is irresistible.
Chen Nan was no exception.
He was eager to find out what lay beyond this chanical Door.
Zhao Han also watched the chanical Door intently, feeling uncertain, but his curiosity prevented him from leaving.
“Not leaving? Damn, the Chicken Lord will also keep you company to the end,” the Black Feathered Chicken babbled, staying back as well, clearly curious about what lay beyond the door.
“Thud…”
The final thud echoed as the chanical Door fully opened.
Looking at the doorway a ter wide and more than two ters high, just as Chen Nan and the others were about to proceed, a figure erged from the stone door at that mont.
It was a woman, a woman dressed in red ancient attire.
She was tall and slender, with graceful curves, especially the delicate waist that seed it could be encircled with a pair of hands.
How could a woman suddenly appear in this place? And one clad in ancient attire at that!
Zhao Han and the Black Feathered Chicken were dumbstruck, struggling to comprehend.
As for Chen Nan, he was completely staggered, his eyes fixated unblinkingly on the face of the woman in red, his feet subconsciously stepping backward.
It wasn’t that he was cowardly, but he had seen this woman before.
He had once wandered into the Underground Lake by mistake and saw the immortal, indestructible corpse of a red-dressed woman in the Underwater Cave Mansion, and her appearance was exactly the sa as that of the woman before him!
