Chapter 443 443 Ice Sculpture!

~~

The four figures flew forward for more than half an hour but did not find anything. Occasionally, some evil spirits and monsters appeared, but they were only mystique venerable rank. Before they could get close to ye chen and the others, they all exploded and turned to ashes.

Ye Chen's astral body peeked at the bottom of the snowfield. The bottom of the hard ice was full of water, like a vast ocean. Even his astral body could not touch its edge. The thick layer of ice was hundreds of meters long. It must have been accumulated for a long time.

"Squeak!" Little tanuki suddenly cried out a few times and its white figure flew across the snowfield.

"What did little tanuki find?" Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat. Together with Little Wing and one buck, he followed closely behind little tanuki and flew forward.

Four figures flew across the snowy plains at high speed. Half an hour later, little tanuki stopped. Ye chen, one buck, and Little Wing also stopped quickly. They looked into the distance and saw that on the icy Plains in front of them, there were many ice sculptures. There were carriages, palaces, people, mystical beasts, and so on. These ice sculptures were vivid and life-like, making people gasp in admiration.

This area of ice sculptures occupied an area of several thousand li!

The myriad forms of the human world were without a doubt.

Apart from some commonly seen humans and demonic beasts, some of the ice sculptures were actually super giant beasts. They had a myriad of forms, making people feel as if they were alive.

Ye chen had actually discovered the immortal Dark Phoenix, celestial Qilin white rhinoceros, netherheaven octopus, and other mystical beasts he was familiar with.

However, he could not recognize many of the other demonic beasts.

They walked through the ice sculptures as if they had entered an Ice Kingdom. Little Wing was curious and was the most active. They were relatively quiet while little tanuki was lying on ye Chen's shoulder, its head turning around as if it was looking for something.

At this moment, a series of clanking sounds came from an extremely distant place. Because it was too far away, the sound was faintly discernible. The sound was like metal hitting each other. It was very clear.

ye chen's expression turned serious. he quickly extended his astral body forward. as he extended, he finally saw an old man at the end of the ice sculpture. he wore a thick cotton jacket and had a pair of large wrinkled hands. he held an awl and a hammer and was hammering away at a huge piece of ice on the ground.

The ice block had already revealed some form. It looked like a giant, and it had already completed half of the work.

This giant was tall and wore battle armor. He looked mighty and extraordinary, and the expression on his face was also very realistic. Beside him stood six other Giants of the same height. Their expressions were all different. Some wore battle armor, some wore beast robes, some held steel knives, and some had sharp swords hanging from their bodies.

Ye Chen's eyes fell on one of the ice giants. The giant held a tower in his hand. The tower had nine floors and each floor was carved with various mystical beasts. There were many mystical beasts but the carvings were extremely detailed.

Ye chen was shocked when he saw the ice giant. The ice giant's appearance was clearly that of senior Tian Yuan, only that the ice giant looked slightly younger than when he had seen it. The tower in his hand was clearly the sunken Jade Tower!

Among these Giants, there was a human form that also caught ye Chen's attention. It was a woman of unparalleled beauty. Her hair was tied up high, and her beauty was unparalleled. She had a slender figure and wore a gorgeous long dress. She looked noble and elegant. What attracted ye chen was not her appearance but the weapon in her hand! The weapon in her hand was exactly the same as the sea god's Trident in tantai Ling's hand!

Ye chen had been in contact with tantai Ling quite a lot, so he had a good understanding of the sea god's Trident in her hand. The Trident on this ice sculpture was exactly the same as tantai Ling's!

What was going on? What was the relationship between the woman in the ice sculpture and tantai Ling?

Ye chen looked at the old man who had carved the ice sculpture again. The old man was thin and frail. Even though he was wearing a thick cotton-padded jacket, he still looked very weak. His white hair was blown into a mess by the wind and his beard was unkempt. The skin on his face was like dead tree bark, full of wrinkles and without a trace of vitality. His eyes were cloudy and lifeless. He just lowered his head and knocked The Awl with the hammer patiently. As he knocked, the fine lines on the ice sculpture were outlined.

These ice blocks seemed to have a life of their own under his sculpting.

The ice sculptures covered thousands of kilometers, stretching as far as the eye could see. There were all kinds of creatures, endless in number. Every creature ye chen knew could be found among them. It was an amazing sight.

This place was like a World of Ice!

"Big sister little tanuki, look, this ice sculpture looks like you. It's amazing!" Little wing's cry of surprise came from a distance. Ye chen and little tanuki looked in Little wing's direction and saw that there were pieces of solid ice carved into flowers and trees, making one feel as if they were in a jungle. Tanuki were scattered in the jungle, their expressions different but they were very lifelike. These tanuki had at least eight tails and among them, there was an ice sculpture of a ten-tailed tanuki.

What shocked ye chen and little tanuki was that this ten-tailed tanuki looked exactly the same as little tanuki!

Everything here was extremely magical.

"Little tanuki, one buck, Little Wing, let's go take a look." Although ye Chen's astral body had sensed that the old man who had sculpted the ice sculpture was just an ordinary person with no cultivation base, the temperature here was at least-30 degrees Celsius. Even ye chen, who was at boundless stage, could feel the cold. How could the old man be an ordinary person?

Ye Chen's heart was on alert. Little tanuki stood on ye Chen's shoulder. Her astral body had completely fused with ye Chen's. She could basically know what ye chen was thinking and became nervous.

"Boss, there are also ice sculptures of our Bear Clan here." One buck stood in front of an ice sculpture and touched his head. The ice sculpture was of a giant bear, but it was several times bigger than one Buck's original body.

Little Wing also found the winged serpent sculptures. He looked around curiously and saw a few ancient characters carved on the back of one of the winged serpents.

"Big brother ye chen, there are a few words behind this sculpture!" Little Wing exclaimed in surprise, as if it had discovered a new continent.

"There's one here too." One buck chimed in and looked at the words behind the giant bear. He frowned and asked, " what do these words mean? "

"Big brother ye chen, are those their names?" Little Wing asked, puzzled.

Ye chen and little tanuki also noticed that almost every ice sculpture had a few ancient characters on it. However, they did not recognize these characters and could only guess that these were the names of the ice sculptures.

Looking from afar, the countless ice sculptures were vast and boundless.

Ye chen was ready to ask the old man. He took little tanuki and soared into the air. After flying for dozens of miles, he landed in front of the old man.

The old man seemed to have been startled by ye chen. He raised his head and looked over. His hair and beard were covered with snowflakes and even icicles but he did not seem to care. The old man's muddy eyes glanced at ye chen, then he lowered his head and continued to knock on the door.

"Senior, how are you?" Ye chen replied politely, feeling a sense of respect for the old man.

"The sunken Jade Tower is not open yet. Young man, how did you get in?" The old man's voice was low and hoarse, and he spoke extremely slowly. Every word he spoke took a long time, as if he hadn't spoken for a long time. As he spoke, his hands didn't stop.

I'm at the entrance of the sunken Jade Tower. I've received senior Tian Yuan's approval and he allowed me to enter the tower at any time. Ye chen said, observing the old man's expression.

The old man's movements clearly paused when he heard the words "heavenly Yuan."

with your strength, you can only reach the sixth floor at most. If you continue down, you'll just be courting death. The old man said slowly. His eyes were still cloudy and unfocused, making it impossible to see a trace of his cultivation base. No one knew how he knew the strength of ye chen and the others.

"Senior, do you know if the sunken Jade Tower is related to the beast tide of soul beasts?" Ye chen asked the question he was most concerned about. Although this old man did not seem to have any cultivation base, he exuded a mysterious energy. Ye chen could feel the flying Dagger in his mind vibrating slightly.

The old man did not answer. He lowered his head and blew at the ice sculpture, blowing away some of the ice shards. The lines on the ice sculpture suddenly became clear.

Ye chen asked a few questions in a row but the old man did not respond at all. It was as if he did not hear him and continued to sculpt with a focused expression.

it seemed like it would be difficult to get any information from him.

? Ye chen and little tanuki looked at each other. When little tanuki looked at the old man, she was also full of curiosity.

"Senior, what are these ice sculptures for?" Ye chen asked again.

Unexpectedly, this time, the old man spoke.

these are their tombstones, " the old man said slowly, pausing after each word. There was a trace of desolation in his voice.

Tombstone? Ye Chen's heart skipped a beat. Did that mean that there were names carved behind the ice sculptures?

Ye chen rose into the air and used his astral body to extend his surroundings. In the vast sea of ice and snow, one ice sculpture after another stood silently in the snow. There was no end in sight. There were simply too many ice sculptures here, so many that they were uncountable. There were humans, mystical beasts, and celestial beasts, all three major races.

Looking at the endless stream of ice sculptures, ye chen was shocked. His heart was filled with a bad feeling but he could not figure it out.

What kind of battle had caused so many experts to die?

One had to know that among these ice sculptures, there were the ten-tailed civet, the immortal Black Phoenix, the celestial Qilin white rhinoceros, the winged serpent, and many other powerful beings.

Ye Chen's eyes looked to the front and landed on the giant holding the giant Pagoda. It was senior Tian Yuan. Could it be that senior Tian Yuan was dead? Those who died with him were the Super experts around him?

Why was this old man tirelessly carving these ice sculptures? was it to erect monuments for these dead people?

With this old man's progress, it would probably take him more than a thousand years to complete so many ice sculptures!

Could it be that this old man had been continuously carving here? How did he live for so long?

There were too many questions in ye Chen's heart that no one could answer. After saying that, no matter how ye chen asked, the old man was not willing to say anything more. He just continued to carve in silence.

The snowflakes danced in the air, and the world was silent. The dark sky seemed to be mourning for this.

A sense of sorrow slowly drifted in the sky, making people feel a little sad.
