Chapter 572: Maintaining clear-headed thinking in battle

The constantly shifting airflow seemed to foreshadow the impending fierce battle.

Zi Xi'er and Su Liyan tightly surrounded Lu Yuan, ready to respond to any sudden situation.

They formed an impregnable defense line using the ice immortal arts and Fobao they mastered.

The elite disciples of the Black Water Sect showed clear hostility, their eyes revealing provocation and intent to attack.

They wore pitch-black battle robes, held extremely sharp hidden swords, and a chilling killing intent permeated the surroundings.

"Are you here to seek the Profound Ice Soul Pearl of the Ice Frost Ancient Hall?"

The elite leader of the Black Water Sect asked with a cold smile.

Lu Yuan nodded solemnly, his gaze firm as he replied: "That's right, we are here to seek the Profound Ice Soul Pearl."

After a moment's thought, he continued: "We hope to cooperate with you, exploring the Ice Frost Ancient Hall together without interfering with each other's actions. How about it?"

The Black Water Sect's elite leader sneered, refusing without hesitation: "Cooperate with you?"

"It doesn't exist."

"We only believe in our own strength."

"If you have the ability, then strive to obtain the Profound Ice Soul Pearl yourselves."

As his words fell, the Black Water Sect's elite disciples all assumed attacking stances.

Seeing this, Su Liyan frowned slightly, her Ice Crystal Long Whip emitting a chill. "We have no time to fight them," Lu Yuan said, grabbing Su Liyan.

"Let's leave first."

……

After a long while, everyone stood steadily before the Ice Frost Ancient Hall, gazing at the intricate and deadly dangerous formation before them, the "Myriad Cold Star Formation".

He took a deep breath, his whole body exuding confidence and radiance.

"Zi Xi'er, Su Liyan, are you ready?"

Lu Yuan turned to ask Zi Xi'er and Su Liyan.

Zi Xi'er closed her eyes tightly, her expression focused.

She used her sensory power to scan the surroundings; not the slightest movement could escape her keen perception.

"Lu Yuan, there is no trace of other enemies around," she replied.

Su Liyan stood shoulder to shoulder with Mo Di to the side.

In her hand, the Ice Crystal Long Whip traced graceful arcs in the air, with ice and snow swirling around her.

"Mo Di and I are ready to withstand the extreme cold attack."

Su Liyan reported.

Lu Yuan nodded and began to dissect the formation before him.

The ever-changing Myriad Cold Star Formation forced him to focus on dissecting every detail while contemplating the optimal solution.

"We must destroy this formation as soon as possible; otherwise, entering the Ice Frost Ancient Hall will not proceed smoothly."

Lu Yuan said to Zi Xi'er and Su Liyan.

Zi Xi'er remained highly alert, sensing the changes in the formation.

She suddenly said: "Lu Yuan, I sense a weak point in the formation; we can attack from there."

Lu Yuan immediately turned to look at Zi Xi'er, a flash of surprise in his eyes.

"Good!"

"Our target is that weak point."

"We must give our all to destroy the formation!"

Lu Yuan began issuing orders: "Su Liyan, with the aid of ice immortal arts and Mo Di, resist the cold erosion and protect us from the formation's influence;"

"Zi Xi'er, use your sensory power to remind me of the attack timing;"

"I will concentrate my power with the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword aimed at the weak point."

Su Liyan and Mo Di nodded, working together to cope with the cold disturbance and to protect Lu Yuan from harm.

Zi Xi'er fully concentrated her sensory power; after Lu Yuan finished his preparations, she immediately reminded him: "Now, Lu Yuan!"

"It's time!"

Lu Yuan gripped the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword tightly, a powerful force surging forth.

He swiftly rushed to the weak point and raised the sword to strike down.

A flame infused with lightning power sliced through the frost, cleaving a corner of the formation.

The violent energy fluctuation made the entire scene tremble.

Su Liyan waved the Ice Crystal Long Whip, tracing beautiful yet deadly arcs in the air.

She used ice immortal arts to condense the chill into ice puppets, which attacked the formation.

Lu Yuan stood firm at the weak point, each of his attacks possessing absolute accuracy.

His Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword gleamed, his spirit soaring.

As Lu Yuan's attacks continued, the formation suddenly emitted a thunderous roar.

It began to gradually collapse, cracks spreading across its surface; the formation was soon breached, opening the road to the Ice Frost Ancient Hall.

Everyone entered the Ice Frost Ancient Hall cautiously, vigilantly observing their surroundings.

Lu Yuan focused his gaze ahead, feeling the intense low temperature and the white mist swirling around him; his eyes shone with a bright intensity.

He felt anticipation and nervousness, hoping to find the Profound Ice Soul Pearl smoothly.

Su Liyan speculated that the surrounding low temperature might be a formation set up to protect the Profound Ice Soul Pearl.

She gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip tightly, ready to employ ice immortal arts at any moment to face possible enemies.

Mo Di looked down from above at the hall's entrance, a hint of majesty unmistakable.

He displays the Dragon Clan's dignity and power, protecting everyone's safety.

Just as they were trying to locate the Profound Ice Soul Pearl, a noisy clamor suddenly came from deep within the hall.

Black Water Sect disciples suddenly launched a sneak attack.

"It seems we can't delay any longer!"

"We must find the Profound Ice Soul Pearl as soon as possible!" Lu Yuan loudly reminded everyone.

Su Liyan tightly gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip in her hand, nodding with a determined gaze.

Mo Di also displayed a stern expression, the Dragon Clan's power flowing through his body.

Lu Yuan and the others charged straight into the depths of the Ancient Ice Hall.

The heavy barrier here grew thicker, making them barely feel their body's warmth.

But Lu Yuan did not retreat; he carried a sense of responsibility and obsession.

Suddenly, not far ahead, a destructive regenerative power radiated a dazzling light.

Everyone's gaze converged there, seeing that light gather into a huge transparent sphere.

"That's the Profound Ice Soul Pearl!" Su Liyan exclaimed excitedly.

Just as everyone tried to move forward to obtain the Profound Ice Soul Pearl, a group of Black Water Sect disciples suddenly surged from all directions, wielding blades and swords to attack them.

"Be careful! They're here!"

Lu Yuan shouted loudly, quickly swinging the Heavenly Gang Thunder Fire Sword in his hand.

Su Liyan used ice-system immortal arts to condense an ice crystal puppet for defense, while performing the Ice Snow Dance, causing the cold air to coalesce into an invisible force.

Mo Di displayed the Dragon Clan's dignity, his body upright, dragon breath surging forth.

Lu Yuan nimbly dodged the enemies' attacks, and with lightning power instantly knocked down several Black Water Sect disciples.

But the Black Water Sect disciples were numerous, leaving everyone in a passive position.

"We must quickly deal with these guys!"

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth, maintaining clear-minded thinking in the battle.

Su Liyan and Mo Di followed closely behind, cooperating tacitly to encircle and disperse the enemies.

The battle entered a white-hot stage, with fierce clashing and explosive sounds echoing inside the hall. (End of chapter)
