Chapter 1874

"Good."

Xu Jingming nodded, not the least bit surprised by this answer.

He looked at the Extreme Cold Ice Dragon: "Then where is the Extreme Cold Heart?"

The Extreme Cold Ice Dragon slowly lowered its dragon head and spoke:

"I am the Extreme Cold Heart.

Next, I will self-destruct, transforming into the Extreme Cold Heart.

If you fail to absorb it, after tens of thousands of years, I will coalesce and be reborn once more from within the Extreme Cold Heart.

This is the destiny of realm law beings."

"Realm law beings are truly wondrous." The Frost Crown Ruler appeared somewhat surprised.

Xu Jingming's eyes, however, lit up: "Then can I kill you?"

This is a mass point delivered right to my door!

Supreme Ruler tier, at least several million to start, right?

Don't take it for nothing!

The Extreme Cold Ice Dragon froze for a moment, but didn't refuse either:

"Fine, it's death either way; no harm in you doing it."

"Many thanks." Xu Jingming's smile was radiant.

His figure moved, and the four-meter-six True Demon Form manifested once more.

Purple-black demonic qi and golden Lei Gang intertwined, tyrannical pressure filling the ice chamber.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Boom—!"

The long spear moved like a dragon, smashing heavily into the ice dragon's torso.

Have to say, having lost the Taiyi Doushen Shenlei's origin empowerment.

Relying on physical strength alone to break a Supreme Ruler's defense is indeed troublesome.

The ice crystal scales were incomparably hard; every strike exploded into sky-filling ice fragments, yet struggled to be fatal.

Xu Jingming wasn't anxious either; his spear momentum was continuous, specifically targeting joints, eye sockets, and other weak points.

The Frost Crown Ruler watched quietly from the side.

In her ice-blue pupils was reflected her disciple's ferocious yet power-filled combat posture, and that trace of strange feeling quietly surfaced in her heart once more.

A full five or six minutes of bombardment passed.

"Crack—!!!"

The final spear beam pierced through the dragon's neck.

The Extreme Cold Ice Dragon let out a long dragon roar, its massive body beginning to collapse inch by inch.

"Remember, absorbing the Extreme Cold Heart inside the cold pool has the highest success rate......"

It left these final words, and its entire dragon body exploded with a boom!

Sky-full ice-blue motes poured down like a galaxy.

They gathered and compressed above the cold pool, ultimately forming a fist-sized, entirely crystalline heart-shaped crystal, clear as a blue diamond.

Inside the crystal, it seemed a miniature ice-and-snow universe was sealed.

Countless ice-origin law patterns circulated endlessly within.

*Ding, killed one Supreme Ruler tier ice beast, mass points +4 million! *

A pleasant system prompt rang out in his mind.

Xu Jingming was overjoyed.

Killing a Supreme Ruler actually gave 4 million mass points directly!

This wave earned big!

He stowed his long spear, looked at the Extreme Cold Heart suspended above the cold pool, then looked at the Frost Crown Teacher beside him.

"Teacher, your turn."

The Frost Crown Ruler exhaled lightly.

Ice-blue eyes gazed fixedly at that supreme cold crystal, a look of determination appearing on her stunningly beautiful face.

She nodded lightly and stepped toward the cold pool.

The ice-blue tight combat suit, under the cold pool's light halo, outlined heart-stirring curves.

Long straight legs stepped into the pool one by one.

Ice-blue pool water rose past ankles, calves, waist......

Bone-piercing cold instantly enveloped her whole body.

She frowned slightly, yet didn't pause in the slightest, continuing forward.

Until her whole body sat cross-legged in the center of the cold pool.

Water reached her collarbones; ice-blue long hair spread out like seaweed, drifting gently in the pool water.

"Teacher, go for it.

If anything's wrong, I'll intervene to stop it."

Xu Jingming stood at the pool's edge and spoke.

"Good."

The Frost Crown Ruler returned a faint smile.

Then she extended her Bai Xi-like jade hands, slowly cupping toward that suspended Extreme Cold Heart.

The moment her fingertips touched the crystal.

Hum—!!!

The entire cave trembled violently!

Hum—!!!

The moment the Heart of Extreme Cold touched the fingertips of the Frost Crown Sovereign, the entire cave trembled violently as if struck by lightning!

The icy blue crystals burst forth with blinding light, countless icy law patterns like living things spreading out from the crystals, crawling up her arms!

Uh...

The Frost Crown Sovereign let out a muffled groan, her peerless face instantly turning as pale as paper.

The heart-shaped crystal slowly merged into her palm, disappearing without a trace.

In its place, faint blue ice crystal patterns appeared on her skin, spreading like meridians.

Terrifying cold exploded outward from her center!

Crack, crack—

The surface of the cold pond froze at a visible speed!

The ice layer kept thickening, spreading from the edge toward the center.

In the blink of an eye, the entire hundred-meter cold pond turned into a massive slab of bluish-black ice!

Even the natural ice crystal corals on the cave walls couldn't withstand this cold, their surfaces cracking with fine fissures!

"It's this cold."

Xu Jingming stood by the pond, his exhaled breath instantly condensing into ice shards that fluttered down.

The golden Lei Gang on his body surface automatically activated.

It dispelled most of the invading cold, but his exposed skin still felt bone-chillingly cold.

Star Core Lei Gang Body, Eighth Layer, bolstered by the True Demon Bloodline—ordinary extreme cold couldn't harm him in the slightest.

Yet now, he actually felt the cold!

"This Heart of Extreme Cold is even more domineering than I imagined."

Xu Jingming sighed softly, yet wasn't overly worried.

After all, his teacher was at least a Sovereign of the Highest, having cultivated the ice system to its peak, with resistance to cold far beyond ordinary people.

Absorbing this Heart of Extreme Cold should pose no problem.

Time passed second by second.

The temperature inside the cave kept dropping.

The cold pond had completely frozen into a massive block of ice.

The Frost Crown Sovereign sat cross-legged at the center of the ice, resembling an ice-carved goddess.

Her peerless face was calm, her icy blue eyes tightly shut, her breathing long and slow.

Yet Xu Jingming's brow furrowed slightly.

"Something's not right."

He stared at the Frost Crown Sovereign, a growing sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

His teacher's aura was becoming chaotic!

The icy divine power emanating from her body.

Which should have been peaceful and controlled, now showed signs of violence and loss of control!

Splash—!!!

Suddenly, another wave of even more terrifying cold surged outward!

The Frost Crown Sovereign snapped her eyes open!

Her icy blue eyes no longer held their former clarity and reason, only emptiness and pain remained.

"Cold... I'm so cold..."

She murmured, her voice trembling violently.

Xu Jingming's pupils contracted sharply!

He saw that the exposed skin of Frost Crown Teacher's surface actually had a thin layer of ice crystals!

"No!"

Xu Jingming's face changed drastically.

Frost Crown Teacher possesses a divine body!

Ordinary cold could never penetrate to her flesh and blood!

Now even her skin is showing ice crystallization.

This indicates the cold of the Heart of Extreme Cold has invaded her divine body's core, and the absorption process has gone terribly wrong!

"Teacher, are you alright?"

Xu Jingming stepped forward, the ice surface exploding!

His figure shot like lightning, instantly crossing tens of meters to land before Frost Crown.

"Warm... so warm..."

Sensing Xu Jingming's approach, the Frost Crown Sovereign's dazed beautiful eyes flickered slightly.

She seemed to have lost all reason, merely following instinct to seek the heat source.

The next moment—

She lunged at him!

Her arms, like a drowning person clutching driftwood, tightly gripped Xu Jingming's waist!
