“ tàn suǒ pǔ tōng bái wù qū yù huò dé de shì gòng xiàn dù , nà me tàn suǒ mí yù suǒ de , yīng gāi jiù shì zhè qīng xuán diǎn le 。”
“探索普通白雾区域获得的是贡献度,那么探索迷域所得,应该就是这青玄点了。”
"Exploring the ordinary white fog area yields contribution points, so what should be gained from exploring the迷域 is this青玄 point."
lǐ fán de mù guāng bù jīng yì jiān yòu sǎo guò xuán yú pǔ xián zhēn zhōu zhī shàng 、 fā chū zhàn zhàn qīng guāng , zhào liàng fāng yuán bǎi zhàng qū yù de liàng tiān jiàn 。
李凡的目光不经意间又扫过悬于普贤真舟之上、发出湛湛青光,照亮方圆百丈区域的量天鉴。
Li Fan's gaze inadvertently swept over the Qianxuan Mirror hanging above the Puxian True Boat, emitting a deep green light that illuminated an area of one hundred feet around it.
“ xuán tiān zhèn wèi hé xīn , qīng xuán jiàn wèi jī chǔ me ……”
“玄天阵为核心,青玄鉴为基础么……”
"Is the array centered on the Xuan Tian Array, with the Qianxuan Mirror as its foundation...?"
qīng xuán jiàn , shàng yī shì lǐ fán céng jīng tīng zhāng zhì liáng tí qǐ guò 。
青玄鉴,上一世李凡曾经听张志良提起过。
The Qianxuan Mirror was something Li Fan had heard mentioned by Zhang Ziliang in his previous life. It was one of the secondary bodies derived from the Heavenly Xuan Mirror, storing all the knowledge and information that existed within it before it separated.
nǎi shì tiān xuán jìng de cì shēng tǐ zhī yī , fù kè cún chǔ zhe tā cóng mǔ tǐ tuō lí zhī qián , tiān xuán jìng zhōng yǐ jīng cún zài de suǒ yǒu zhī shí xìn xī 。
乃是天玄镜的次生体之一,复刻存储着它从母体脱离之前,天玄镜中已经存在的所有知识信息。
It encompassed everything, essentially a comprehensive encyclopedia of the Xuanhuang Realm in offline form.
bāo luó wàn xiàng , kān chēng lí xiàn bǎn de xuán huáng jiè bǎi kē quán shū 。
包罗万象,堪称离线版的玄黄界百科全书。
And as for the core array...
ér hé xīn fǎ zhèn ……
而核心法阵……
After the current world's Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance excavated the Xuan Tian Dharmaraja from the Purple Void Sect, the array centered on the Heavenly Xuan Mirror had become vastly different. It transformed from the [Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit] to the [Xuan Tian Sealing Spirit].
cǐ shì wàn xiān méng jiāng chén mián zài zǐ xiāo zōng de xuán tiān fǎ wáng wā jué chū lái hòu , yǐ tiān xuán jìng wèi hé xīn de zhèn fǎ yǐ jīng biàn dé gēn shàng yī shì dà bù xiāng tóng 。 yóu 【 tiān xuán suǒ líng 】, biàn wèi 【 xuán tiān fēng líng 】。
此世万仙盟将沉眠在紫霄宗的玄天法王挖掘出来后,以天玄镜为核心的阵法已经变得跟上一世大不相同。由【天玄锁灵】,变为【玄天封灵】。
It was more aggressive in its attacks. More importantly, the order of "Xuan" and "Tian" seemed to indicate that the [Xuan Tian Sealing Spirit Array] was under the control of cultivators.
gōng jī xìng gèng qiáng 。 ér qiě , zuì wèi zhòng yào de shì ,“ xuán ” hé “ tiān ” de zì xù xiān hòu qū bié , sì hū shuō míng le 【 xuán tiān fēng líng zhèn 】 chù zài xiū shì de zhǎng kòng zhī zhōng 。
攻击性更强。而且,最为重要的是,“玄”和“天”的字序先后区别,似乎说明了【玄天封灵阵】处在修士的掌控之中。
Whether it was the small mirror used by Hongxi Immortal Sovereign when facing Scarlet Flame, or the Qianxuan Mirror as a separate entity with some of the Heavenly Xuan Mirror's power, they could serve as evidence for this viewpoint.
wú lùn shì miàn duì chì yán shí , hóng xī xiān jūn jì chū de nà yī fāng xiǎo jìng 。 hái shì cǐ kè zuò wéi dān dú gè tǐ cún zài 、 què jù bèi tiān xuán jìng bù fèn wēi néng de liàng tiān jiàn 。 dōu kě zuò wéi cǐ zhǒng guān diǎn de zuǒ zhèng 。
无论是面对赤炎时,鸿曦仙君祭出的那一方小镜。还是此刻作为单独个体存在、却具备天玄镜部分威能的量天鉴。都可作为此种观点的左证。
"Speaking of which, I wonder if the [Separation Plate], the biggest talking point in the construction competition of the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array from my previous life, will appear on the list for exchanging Qianxuan Points."
“ shuō qǐ lái , bù zhī dào shàng yī shì zuò wéi tiān xuán suǒ líng zhèn jiàn zào bǐ shì zhōng zuì dà xué tou de 【 jiě lí dié 】, zhè cì huì bú huì chū xiàn zài qīng xuán diǎn duì huàn qīng dān zhōng 。”
“说起来,不知道上一世作为天玄锁灵阵建造比试中最大噱头的【解离碟】,这次会不会出现在青玄点兑换清单中。”
As a secondary body derived from the Heavenly Xuan Mirror, although it was inferior to the original, it still counted as one of the top treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm.
tiān xuán jìng cì shēng tǐ , zuò wéi tiān xuán jìng fēn lí 、 yǎn huà de gè tǐ , suī rán yǔ běn tǐ xiāng bǐ chà le bù zhǐ yī chóu , dàn réng rán suàn de shàng xuán huáng jiè yī děng yī de yì bǎo 。
天玄镜次生体,作为天玄镜分离、衍化的个体,虽然与本体相比差了不止一筹,但仍然算的上玄黄界一等一的异宝。
According to what Li Fan knew: The Qianxuan Mirror recorded all things; the Separation Plate had unparalleled array-breaking capabilities and even shielded against the Xuan Network's perception...
jǐn lǐ fán suǒ zhī de : qīng xuán jiàn jì zǎi shì jiān wàn wù ; jiě lí dié suàn lì qiáng hàn 、 pò zhèn néng lì wú shuāng ; è miè shí pán shèn zhì néng píng bì xuán wǎng gǎn zhī 、 chuàng zào lòu dòng ……
仅李凡所知的:青玄鉴记载世间万物;解离碟算力强悍、破阵能力无双;厄灭石盘甚至能屏蔽玄网感知、创造漏洞……
"If I were to gain any of these secondary bodies, it would definitely be this one when choosing to save my options at the end of the Zhenhuan."
“ ruò shì cǐ shì yǒu xìng néng huò dé qí zhōng yí gè cì shēng tǐ , zài hái zhēn jié shù xuǎn zé bǎo cún xuǎn xiàng de shí hòu , jué duì yìng gāi shì xuǎn tā 。”
“若是此世有幸能获得其中一个次生体,在还真结束选择保存选项的时候,绝对应该是选它。”
"Even if I returned to the Golden Core realm, achieving the Foundation Establishment realm for me is just going through the motions again."
“ bì jìng jiù suàn chóng xīn huí dào jīn dān qī , duì yú wǒ ér yán , chéng jiù yuán yīng yě bù guò shì zài zǒu yī biàn liú chéng bà le 。”
“毕竟就算重新回到金丹期,对于我而言,成就元婴也不过是再走一遍流程罢了。”
Just as Li Fan's thoughts were swirling and he was lost in daydreams.
zhèng dāng lǐ fán sī xù fān yǒng 、 bù duàn chàng xiǎng de shí hòu 。
正当李凡思绪翻涌、不断畅想的时候。
A faint whisper suddenly reached his ears, startling him out of his reverie.
hū de yī zhèn ní nán shēng , cóng ěr biān chuán lái , jiāng tā cóng huàn xiǎng zhōng jīng xǐng 。
忽的一阵呢喃声,从耳边传来,将他从幻想中惊醒。
Li Fan turned sharply to look around.
lǐ fán mò rán cháo zhe zuǒ yòu wàng qù 。
李凡蓦然朝着左右望去。
The white fog was silent. Thus, this sudden, mysterious murmur stood out all the more.
bái wù zhī zhōng , jì jìng wú shēng 。 suǒ yǐ xiāng bǐ jiào ér yán , zhè tū rán chū xiàn de mò míng xì yǔ , shì nà me de míng xiǎn 、 guǐ yì 。
白雾之中,寂静无声。所以相比较而言,这突然出现的莫名细语,是那么的明显、诡异。
Li Fan narrowed his eyes, trying to pinpoint the source of the sound.
lǐ fán mī qǐ shuāng yǎn , xiǎng yào biàn bié zhe shēng yīn de lái yuán 。
李凡眯起双眼,想要辨别着声音的来源。
But the direction kept shifting—left and right, front and back—and sometimes it seemed as if it appeared directly beside him, sending a chill down his spine.
dàn zhè shēng yīn de fāng wèi hū zuǒ hū yòu 、 hū qián hū hòu , yǒu shí shèn zhì xiàng shì zài lǐ fán ěr biān zhí jiē chū xiàn bān 。
但这声音的方位忽左忽右、忽前忽后,有时甚至像是在李凡耳边直接出现般。
Li Fan's unusual behavior caught Huangfu Song's attention.
lìng rén hàn máo zhí shù 。
令人汗毛直竖。
"Brother Li, what's wrong?" he asked with concern.
lǐ fán de yì cháng hěn kuài yǐn qǐ le huáng fǔ sōng de zhù yì 。
李凡的异常很快引起了皇甫松的注意。
Eastern Yang, who had been listless, perked up at the question and looked over curiously.
“ lǐ xiōng , nǐ zěn me le ?” tā yǒu xiē guān xīn de wèn dào 。
“李兄,你怎么了?”他有些关心的问道。
"Do you two hear any sound?"
yì zhí wú jīng dǎ cǎi de dōng fāng yào wén yán yě jīng shén yī zhèn , tóu lái xún wèn de mù guāng 。
一直无精打采的东方曜闻言也精神一阵,投来询问的目光。
Li Fan's expression turned serious as he asked in return.
“ nǐ men yǒu méi yǒu tīng dào shén me shēng yīn ?” lǐ fán miàn sè yǒu xiē níng zhòng de fǎn wèn 。
“你们有没有听到什么声音?”李凡面色有些凝重的反问。
"Hmm? Sound? This white fog is very quiet..." Eastern Yang and Huangfu Song exchanged glances, puzzled.
“ ń ? shēng yīn ? zhè bái wù lǐ miàn kě shì ān jìng de hěn a ……” dōng fāng yào yǔ huáng fǔ sōng miàn miàn xiāng qù , yǒu xiē bù jiě 。
“嗯?声音?这白雾里面可是安静的很啊……”东方曜与皇甫松面面相觑,有些不解。
Li Fan waved them off with a dismissive gesture.
huī le huī shǒu , dǎ duàn èr rén jì xù zhuī wèn de yì tú 。
挥了挥手,打断二人继续追问的意图。
He leaped to the front of the Puxian True Boat, focusing his spirit to listen carefully for any whispers in the fog.
lǐ fán fēi shēn lái dào pǔ xián zhēn zhōu chuán tóu , jí zhōng jīng shén , xì xì líng tīng bái wù zhōng chuán lái de dī yǔ 。
李凡飞身来到普贤真舟船头,集中精神,细细聆听白雾中传来的低语。
The flying boat continued forward. After nearly an hour, the murmurs finally faded from Li Fan's ears.
fēi zhōu bù duàn xiàng qián , zú zú guò le yī zhù xiāng de shí jiān , dī yǔ cái zài lǐ fán ěr biān xiāo shī 。
飞舟不断向前,足足过了一炷香的时间,低语才在李凡耳边消失。
"Strange."
“ qí guài 。”
“奇怪。”
Li Fan connected his consciousness to the Qianxuan Mirror and checked their current location.
lǐ fán yì shí lián jiē liàng tiān jiàn , chá kàn qǐ mù qián suǒ zài de wèi zhì 。
李凡意识连接量天鉴,查看起目前所在的位置。
They had left behind the large swaths of dark green areas, carving out a narrow path through endless white fog as they advanced.
yǐ jīng lí kāi yǐ jīng tàn míng de dà piàn qīng hēi sè qū yù , zài wú jìn de bái sè zhōng kāi pì chū yī tiáo xì xiǎo de tōng dào , bù duàn qián xíng 。
已经离开已经探明的大片青黑色区域,在无尽的白色中开辟出一条细小的通道,不断前行。
A sudden thought struck Li Fan.
lǐ fán líng guāng yī shǎn , dùn shí xiǎng dào le shén me 。
李凡灵光一闪,顿时想到了什么。
"Turn around. Head back."
“ diào zhuǎn fāng xiàng , huí tóu 。”
“调转方向,回头。”
He instructed Huangfu Song in a low voice.
lǐ fán chén shēng duì huáng fǔ sōng shuō dào 。
李凡沉声对皇甫松说道。
Huangfu Song hesitated for a moment but followed Li Fan's serious demeanor and did as he was told.
huáng fǔ sōng yóu yù le piàn kè , bù guò kàn zhe lǐ fán rèn zhēn de shén qíng , yú shì dāng jí zhào bàn 。
皇甫松犹豫了片刻,不过看着李凡认真的神情,于是当即照办。
They retraced their steps, and the faint whispers returned to Li Fan's ears not long after.
yán zhe lái shí lù fǎn huí , mò guò duō jiǔ , yuán běn yǐ jīng xiāo shī de ní nán shēng , zài dù chū xiàn zài lǐ fán ěr biān 。
沿着来时路返回,没过多久,原本已经消失的呢喃声,再度出现在李凡耳边。
"Fly this way," Li Fan stood at the bow of the boat, identifying the source while guiding Huangfu Song in that direction.
“ cháo zhè lǐ fēi 。” lǐ fán lì yú chuán tóu , biàn bié shēng yīn lái yuán de tóng shí , wèi huáng fǔ sōng zhǐ míng fāng xiàng 。
“朝这里飞。”李凡立于船头,辨别声音来源的同时,为皇甫松指明方向。
As the Puxian True Boat changed its course repeatedly, the soft murmurs grew louder.
suí zhe pǔ xián zhēn zhōu bù duàn gǎi biàn qián xíng lù xiàn , ěr biān de xù xù dī yǔ yě biàn dé yuè fā xiǎng liàng 。
随着普贤真舟不断改变前行路线,耳边的絮絮低语也变得越发响亮。
After surpassing a certain threshold, Li Fan finally understood the content of the whispers.
dāng chāo guò mǒu yī xiàn zhí zhī hòu , lǐ fán zhōng yú néng tīng qīng chǔ , shēng yīn de nèi róng le 。
当超过某一限值之后,李凡终于能听清楚,声音的内容了。
"Sky..."
“ tiān ……”
“天……”
"Medicine..."
“ yī ……”
“医……”
A heavy sense of oppression instantly overwhelmed him. But since he had anticipated this, it didn't scare him as much.
yī gǔ jù dà de yā yì gǎn shà shí yǒng shàng tā de xīn tóu 。 dàn yīn wèi yǐ jīng yǒu suǒ yù liào , suǒ yǐ dào yě méi yǒu bèi dī yǔ shēng de nèi róng xià dào 。
一股巨大的压抑感霎时涌上他的心头。但因为已经有所预料,所以倒也没有被低语声的内容吓到。
"It seems that the 'Heavenly Medicine' I heard on my journey to the Roaring Abyss in my previous life wasn't just a hallucination caused by fear."
“ kàn lái shàng yī shì wǒ qián wǎng chì zhā shēn yuān tú zhōng tīng dào de ‘ tiān yī ’ zhī shēng , bìng bú shì shén me yīn wèi xīn tóu zuì shēn kǒng jù ér chǎn shēng de huàn tīng 。”
“看来上一世我前往叱吒深渊途中听到的‘天医’之声,并不是什么因为心头最深恐惧而产生的幻听。”
"It's actually real," Li Fan suddenly realized.
“ ér shì què què shí shí cún zài de 。”
“而是确确实实存在的。”
The Puxian True Boat continued flying according to Li Fan's instructions.
lǐ fán dùn shí huǎng rán 。
李凡顿时恍然。
Despite the white fog surrounding them, nothing seemed to have changed.
pǔ xián zhēn zhōu jì xù àn zhào lǐ fán de zhǐ yǐn , xiàng qián fēi xíng 。
普贤真舟继续按照李凡的指引,向前飞行。
But Li Fan keenly noticed that the Qianxuan points of the three on board had instantly increased from zero to one hundred and were still rapidly growing as they explored further.
zhōu wéi yī jiù bái máng máng yī piàn , sì hū méi yǒu fā shēng shén me biàn huà 。
周围依旧白茫茫一片,似乎没有发生什么变化。
"Slow down. We've entered a迷域." Li Fan instructed in a low voice.
dàn shì lǐ fán què mǐn ruì de chá jué dào , chuán shàng sān rén zài shùn jiān , qīng xuán diǎn shù yóu líng biàn chéng le yì bǎi 。
但是李凡却敏锐的察觉到,船上三人在瞬间,青玄点数由零变成了一百。
Huangfu Song was taken aback at first but, after checking the Qianxuan Mirror, couldn't help feeling elated.
bìng qiě zhèng suí zhe pǔ xián zhēn zhōu chí xù bú duàn de tàn suǒ , hái zài kuài sù zēng jiā 。
并且正随着普贤真舟持续不断的探索,还在快速增加。
"How did you know there's a迷域 here? Was it because of those strange sounds?" he asked Li Fan eagerly.
“ màn yì diǎn 。 wǒ men xiàn zài yīng gāi jìn rù le yī chù mí yù zhī zhōng le 。” lǐ fán chén shēng zhǔ fù dào 。
“慢一点。我们现在应该进入了一处迷域之中了。”李凡沉声嘱咐道。
"Indeed. But strangely enough, once we entered this area, those odd sounds suddenly disappeared," Li Fan nodded in response as his divine sense probed the surroundings.
huáng fǔ sōng xiān shì yī lèng , suí hòu chá kàn le fān liàng tiān jiàn hòu , bù jīn dà xǐ 。
皇甫松先是一愣,随后查看了番量天鉴后,不禁大喜。
"Now we're really in for it. This should be an unexplored迷域 where our Qianxuan points are skyrocketing." Huangfu Song said with a satisfied smile.
“ lǐ xiōng nǐ shì zěn me zhī dào zhè lǐ yǒu mí yù cún zài de ? jiù shì yīn wèi nǐ zhī qián suǒ shuō de shēng yīn ?” tā kàn zhe lǐ fán , lián máng wèn dào 。
“李兄你是怎么知道这里有迷域存在的?就是因为你之前所说的声音?”他看着李凡,连忙问道。
Eastern Yang reminded them: "Still, let's be careful. I feel like this place is creepy."
“ bù cuò 。 bù guò qí guài de shì , jìn rù dào zhè lǐ , nà xiē gǔ guài de shēng yīn jiù tū rán xiāo shī le 。” lǐ fán diǎn tóu huí dá dào , tóng shí shén shí cháo zhe sì zhōu tàn suǒ 。
“不错。不过奇怪的是,进入到这里,那些古怪的声音就突然消失了。”李凡点头回答道,同时神识朝着四周探索。
As they continued flying forward, the devouring white fog began to thin out.
“ zhè xià zhēn de fā dá le , zhè lǐ yīng gāi shì chù cóng wèi yǒu rén shè zú de mò shēng mí yù 。 wǒ men de qīng xuán diǎn shù zhèng zài bào zhǎng 。” huáng fǔ sōng měi zī zī de shuō dào 。
“这下真的发达了,这里应该是处从未有人涉足的陌生迷域。我们的青玄点数正在暴涨。”皇甫松美滋滋的说道。
Eventually, it vanished completely, revealing the true face of the迷域.
dōng fāng yào zé shì tí xǐng dào :“ hái shì xiǎo xīn yì diǎn de hǎo 。 wǒ zǒng gǎn jué zhè lǐ yīn sēn sēn de 。”
东方曜则是提醒道:“还是小心一点的好。我总感觉这里阴森森的。”
Seeing the scene before him, even Huangfu and Eastern, who prided themselves on their extensive knowledge, stood dumbstruck, their hands trembling with coldness.
jì xù xiàng qián fēi xíng le yī duàn jù lí , shì yuán bái wù kāi shǐ biàn dé xī bó qǐ lái 。
继续向前飞行了一段距离,噬元白雾开始变得稀薄起来。
Li Fan took a deep breath, calming his heart's shock.
zuì zhōng wán quán xiāo shī , cǐ chù de mí yù yě lù chū le yǐn cáng de miàn róng 。
最终完全消失,此处的迷域也露出了隐藏的面容。
Before him lay a vast black sea of silence. The surface was still, dotted with countless ice crystal blocks floating above it.
kàn qīng chǔ yǎn qián chǎng jǐng hòu , nǎ pà zì xǔ jiàn duō shí guǎng de huáng fǔ yǔ dōng fāng , yě bù yóu dāi lì dāng chǎng 、 shǒu zú bīng liáng 。
看清楚眼前场景后,哪怕自诩见多识广的皇甫与东方,也不由呆立当场、手足冰凉。
Each block contained the frozen remains of a cultivator.
lǐ fán zé shì shēn xī le kǒu qì , píng fù zhe xīn tóu de zhèn hàn 。
李凡则是深吸了口气,平复着心头的震撼。
Through the ice, one could faintly see their last expressions before death—anger, fear, confusion...
rù mù suǒ jí , shì yī piàn hēi sè de sǐ jì hǎi yáng 。 hǎi miàn méi yǒu yī sī làng huā , zhǐ yǒu wú shù gè bīng jīng fāng kuài , piāo fú yú shàng 。
入目所及,是一片黑色的死寂海洋。海面没有一丝浪花,只有无数个冰晶方块,漂浮于上。
Life-like and vivid as if they were alive.
měi gè fāng kuài zhōng , dōu bīng fēng zhe yī jù xiū shì shī tǐ 。
每个方块中,都冰封着一具修士尸体。
Ice coffin after ice coffin filled the entire field, covering the vast black sea.
tòu guò bīng jīng , yī xī hái néng kàn dào tā men liǎn shàng shēng qián zuì hòu de biǎo qíng 。
透过冰晶,依稀还能看到他们脸上生前最后的表情。
The sheer number was impossible to estimate.
fèn nù 、 kǒng jù 、 yí huò ……
愤怒、恐惧、疑惑……
It seemed like the entire world's cultivators had been frozen and buried here.
xǔ xǔ rú shēng , jiù xiàng tā men hái huó zhe yī yàng 。
栩栩如生,就像他们还活着一样。
The intense visual impact left the Puxian True Boat in a deathly silence for a long time.
mì mì má má de bīng jīng guān cái , chōng chì zhe zhěng piàn shì yě 、 bù mǎn zhěng piàn hēi sè hǎi yáng 。
密密麻麻的冰晶棺材,充斥着整片视野、布满整片黑色海洋。
After some time, Huangfu Song swallowed hard and suggested softly: "Maybe we should leave..."
gēn běn wú fǎ gū suàn , shù liàng jiū jìng yǒu duō shǎo 。
根本无法估算,数量究竟有多少。
Clearly, even the usually greedy Huangfu was shaken by this bizarre scene.
"Exploring the ordinary white fog area yields contribution points, so what should be gained from exploring the迷域 is this青玄 point."
Li Fan's gaze inadvertently swept over the Qianxuan Mirror hanging above the Puxian True Boat, emitting a deep green light that illuminated an area of one hundred feet around it.
"Is the array centered on the Xuan Tian Array, with the Qianxuan Mirror as its foundation...?"
The Qianxuan Mirror was something Li Fan had heard mentioned by Zhang Ziliang in his previous life. It was one of the secondary bodies derived from the Heavenly Xuan Mirror, storing all the knowledge and information that existed within it before it separated.
It encompassed everything, essentially a comprehensive encyclopedia of the Xuanhuang Realm in offline form.
And as for the core array...
After the current world's Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance excavated the Xuan Tian Dharmaraja from the Purple Void Sect, the array centered on the Heavenly Xuan Mirror had become vastly different. It transformed from the [Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit] to the [Xuan Tian Sealing Spirit].

"Sky..."
"Medicine..."
A heavy sense of oppression instantly overwhelmed him. But since he had anticipated this, it didn't scare him as much.
"It seems that the 'Heavenly Medicine' I heard on my journey to the Roaring Abyss in my previous life wasn't just a hallucination caused by fear."

Seeing the scene before him, even Huangfu and Eastern, who prided themselves on their extensive knowledge, stood dumbstruck, their hands trembling with coldness.
Li Fan took a deep breath, calming his heart's shock.
Before him lay a vast black sea of silence. The surface was still, dotted with countless ice crystal blocks floating above it.
Each block contained the frozen remains of a cultivator.
Through the ice, one could faintly see their last expressions before death—anger, fear, confusion...
Life-like and vivid as if they were alive.
Ice coffin after ice coffin filled the entire field, covering the vast black sea.
The sheer number was impossible to estimate.
It seemed like the entire world's cultivators had been frozen and buried here.
The intense visual impact left the Puxian True Boat in a deathly silence for a long time.
After some time, Huangfu Song swallowed hard and suggested softly: "Maybe we should leave..."
Clearly, even the usually greedy Huangfu was shaken by this bizarre scene.
