From Duan Lian's impression, since they were deep inside a well, they would quickly descend. Duan Rui had made all the preparations, using his own true qi to stir up the impact in order to reduce the speed of their descent. However, it was very strange; it was as if there was someone supporting his body as he slowly descended.
It was as if he had made a few turns and landed steadily on top of an ice cube.
"Quickly come into the bowl, quickly come to my place. I have what you want here."
The sound grew stronger and stronger. Even though the sound wasn't loud, it echoed in his head. Even his will to forge iron wasn't able to attract any more. Duan Meng walked slowly in the direction of the sound.
At this time, Duan Meng's cultivation had already been mostly sealed, and he was only at the early Qi Cultivation stage. He couldn't use any soul power, so his mental strength was greatly reduced. He was almost mesmerized by the loud noise.
"Young master, it's Little Phoenix Fairy. Come quickly, I miss you. I love you. Come quickly."
"Young master, don't bother with him. I'm Hei Yan, I love you the most. If you come to my side, I'll turn into a stream of water to nourish you. I'll do whatever you want with me."
"Young Master, don't listen to her. She's a fox spirit, I'm your most beloved."
Seeing that Xiao Fengxian and Hei Yan were about to fight, Duan Ru Yue went over and gently hugged the two of them, one in each hand. He then softly said, "I love you both, you are all my precious treasures."
The two women were as light as catkins and as smooth as water. It seemed that they were about to melt Duan Ren down.
"Not good, this is an illusion. Little Phoenix Fairy and Black Rock obviously didn't enter, so why are there their groans?" Duan Ru Meng woke up and bit his tongue. A salty taste rushed up and shocked him.
Duan Meng woke up from his stupor and saw a world of ice and snow in front of him. There was nothing there except the ice plains and the overflowing voice, "That was close!"
If Duan Jian didn't wake up in time, he would continue to immerse himself in the process, and his cultivation would surely go berserk.
Duan Meng decided to run in the opposite direction. If he followed the direction of this voice, he would definitely reach the heart of it. He didn't know if he would be able to bear it or not.
After walking for two hours, the allure of his voice had lessened. He felt that he had walked the right path. However, there was a wasteland filled with snow and ice everywhere. Where was the exit? He fell into a state of confusion.
"Let's go, I don't believe that there is no exit to the ice world." Duan Ling Tian advised himself as he walked for another two hours. His voice gradually became louder, and Duan Ru Yue was startled. Could it be that he was in another dangerous situation? At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was unable to turn back, so he could only brace himself and continue forward.
A familiar scene appeared: the ice mountain in the distance, the nearby ice field, as well as the mark that he had inadvertently left behind. Duan Meng understood. He drew a circle on himself and returned to the starting point.
"What's going on? "Why am I spinning in the same place?" An intangible sense of fear overcame me.
"What should I do?" Duan Ru Yue thought hard, but didn't have any clues.
An idea came into his mind. Since he couldn't run in the opposite direction, he had to face it head on. Whether it was his voice or difficulties and obstacles, he had no choice but to face it.
Duan Ren made up his mind and decided to follow the direction of the voice. Whether it was death or life, he would leave it up to fate.
Following the sound of the voice, it became much faster. Even though the sound was getting louder and louder, at least they were able to avoid losing their way. After walking for a day and a night, they finally saw a huge palace, hundreds of floors high, the highest reaching straight into the clouds.
"What a towering palace. Duan Rui walked into the courtyard with large strides, but the crazed voice had already disappeared, followed by a powerful attractive force.
"Yes." Duan Yi excitedly jumped in. With a "peng", an invisible force bounced Duan Ren back, causing him to tumble onto the ground.
"It's a barrier." Duan Jian instantly understood. At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was a barrier expert. Normal barriers wouldn't be difficult to encounter, but the barrier in front of him was like an iron wall. Duan Ru Yue had no way to deal with it. The stairs of the palace were just inches away from him, but he was unable to enter. Duan Meng had been blocked outside.
"What should we do? You can't go in and you can't go in, and you don't even know where the exit is. Are you trapped in the ice? " At this moment, Duan Ling Tian already had dozens of Frigid Ice Mothers. He only wanted to get out as soon as possible and obtain a large amount of 10,000 year old Frigid Wood, then his soul force would increase. He didn't want to find trouble with them.
However, the matter in front of him was difficult to deal with.
Suddenly, the ball of ice in Duan Meng's arms seemed to have moved a few times, attracting Duan Ru's attention.
"Could it be that the ice ball is a magic treasure used to restrain the barrier?"
Duan Ru took out the ice ball and tried to enter the enchantment, but it was unexpectedly easy and Duan Ru was filled with surprise.
"We're finally in. I wonder what good stuff is in this palace. If there is, we should search a bit more. If there is no exit, then that is all."
Just like stepping onto the stairs of a palace, there was an invisible force obstructing him. The strength of this force was truly rare. If one were to compare their current strength, it was basically impossible to climb up.
However, there was also a pleasant surprise. Duan Jian discovered that his own function had increased quite a bit. It seemed that his strength was slowly recovering. "This is great, if my power is restored to the top, I can extend my soul force. Even if the palace is a thousand meters tall, I can still extend my soul force inside to see what's inside."
Duan Ru's thoughts were not bad, but once his cultivation recovered to a certain extent, it stopped. Duan Ru was not only depressed.
"What's going on? Why did you stop recovering? "
Duan Ru attempted to step onto the second step, but the resistance was unexpectedly reduced. Duan Ru was pleasantly surprised. Duan Ru used all his strength to forcefully step into the second floor.
His cultivation began to recover, and Duan Yi was overjoyed. It seemed that the higher he went, the more power he would be able to recover. Duan Ru Yue probed his soul power and gradually felt a trace of spiritual power within his soul.
"Looks like this palace is a bit strange. As long as I enter the highest level, all of my power will be restored."
Just as Duan Meng was feeling happy, he stopped recovering. Duan Ru immediately understood that once he reached a certain level on each level, he would stop at a single point. If he wanted to return to his original position, he would need to keep levelling up. Now that he was on the second floor, it seemed the third floor would be far more powerful.
His guess was indeed correct. After entering the third layer, his martial arts had recovered even more, and even his soul force had increased. However, it was very rare.
"I wonder how many levels are in this palace?" Duan Meng estimated that there were at least 3,000 levels, and he only managed to reach the 3rd level in a day. It seemed like it would be impossible to complete all 3000 levels in a year.
The time limit for him to enter was one year. After one year, the exit would summon him. If he could not summon me, the exit would automatically close and I would have to stay here for another year. However, there was no use getting anxious, so Duan Ling Tian could only calm down.
Although he had only advanced three levels, Duan Meng already felt a sense of hope. It seemed that there was a formation designed by some major powers on the stairs of this palace, and he would be able to recover some of his strength from within. Although the quantity was not very large, but if he were to go down all of these 3000 floors, his recovery rate would be a huge figure.
At that time, it would not only be a matter of recovering his strength, but also his own strength and soul force. Thinking of this, Duan Meng couldn't help but have a lot of hope in his heart.
