“It’s said that one cannot capture the tiger’s cub without entering the tiger’s den. No matter how dangerous it may be, one must still give it a try—perhaps there will even be unexpected gains,” Lin Fan thought to himself. Yet, listening to the disciples’ fearful accounts, he felt a chill creeping up his spine. This mysterious woman indeed sounded extremely dangerous.
Moreover, considering the Frost Deity, from a psychological perspective, this woman was definitely a psychopath. If he encountered her, he would have to be extremely cautious.
Without hesitation, Lin Fan immediately vanished into the void.
Within this frigid world, many beings from the Yueying Continent had set up camp. The icy winds seemed to recognize them and swept past their surroundings without harming them.
This massive army marched grandly, but Lin Fan made no move to interfere, preferring not to draw attention.
His mission this time was merely to scout. If it turned out to be safe, he would strike in an instant. But if it proved dangerous, he would have to proceed with caution.
Stealth mode.
Although stealth made no practical difference while he was already in motion, entering stealth mode gave him a sense of peace. Otherwise, he always felt like something was missing.
Soon enough.
The place with the most intense cold was directly ahead—the main base of the Di Dao Sect.
The Di Dao Sect’s headquarters had already been taken over. Lin Fan noticed many ice statues outside the sect. Their postures were bizarre and varied, as if they had been instantly frozen mid-motion, preserving their final moments.
“Damn, this person is one twisted freak.”
Lin Fan couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration. The countless ice statues formed an entire exhibition of frozen figures. He never imagined someone could possess such a horrifying technique—freezing everyone in place without a single sign of battle around.
This meant that the members of the Di Dao Sect hadn’t even had the chance to resist.
Just then, a cold voice echoed from the void.
“Another fine candidate for an ice sculpture has appeared…”
Hearing this voice, Lin Fan was instantly startled, as if he had seen a ghost. Was he really that detectable? How terrifyingly powerful was this person?
Without even thinking, Lin Fan immediately vanished into the void and fled.
It was obvious at a glance that this opponent was extremely formidable—far beyond his capabilities.
Retreat!
Sometimes, when you can’t win, you just have to run, especially when facing such a twisted opponent. If he didn’t escape, he’d just be waiting to be tortured.
In an instant, he fled thousands of miles away.
Yet, just then, Lin Fan noticed someone already waiting ahead.
A woman’s silhouette.
This…
At a glance, her aura was even stronger than that of the Future Boundless Buddha King. Her chilling presence was bone-penetrating, so cold that being this close felt unbearable.
Lin Fan coughed lightly. “Who are you? I’m just passing through.”
The Frost Deity turned around. When Lin Fan saw her face, he froze in shock. “Water Deity…”
Whoosh!
In an instant, that figure vanished and reappeared right in front of him. Lin Fan suddenly felt a freezing sensation in his chest and immediately leapt backward in alarm.
His heart pounded. How fast was that?
The Frost Deity looked at Lin Fan. “You’ve met my sister…”
Hearing this, Lin Fan was stunned. The Water Deity was the younger sister of this terrifying woman?
Then, there was no way he could admit that he had mercilessly beaten the Water Deity to death. No wonder they looked so similar.
But what Lin Fan couldn’t understand was why the Water Deity’s strength was so vastly inferior to the Frost Deity’s—like heaven and earth apart.
As Lin Fan hesitated for a moment, the Frost Deity’s aura grew even sharper. The snowflakes floating in the void suddenly turned into crystalline ice shards, and the surrounding temperature dropped even further, as if the very space itself had begun to freeze.
“You’ve seen my sister?”
The cold voice came again, even colder than before.
Lin Fan’s heart trembled, and he showed fear on his face. “I dare not speak—I’m afraid I will be killed if I do.”
The Frost Deity’s eyes turned icy. “If you don’t speak, I will kill you.”
Lin Fan looked at the Frost Deity and finally spoke. “It was the Future Boundless Buddha King who killed her.”
The Frost Deity fell silent. Lin Fan had no idea what was going on, but at the very least, she should have said something.
In an instant, the Frost Deity locked her gaze onto Lin Fan. “You’re lying…”
Lin Fan inwardly cursed furiously. But once the words were spoken, they couldn’t be taken back. If he didn’t pin the blame on the Future Boundless Buddha King, he wouldn’t be Lin Fan.
“I didn’t lie…” Lin Fan stared straight at the Frost Deity, showing no fear.
“Hmph, asking for death…” With a sudden movement, the Frost Deity appeared before Lin Fan in an instant, unleashing a surge of frost. To Lin Fan’s horror, his body was instantly frozen over.
Crack!
Crack!
The frost spread rapidly, unstoppable.
Lin Fan finally understood the sensation others had described—his inner energy had truly solidified, completely unresponsive.
The Frost Deity looked at Lin Fan. “Lying means death.”
Lin Fan tried to resist the frost but was powerless. He roared, “Why don’t you believe me?”
“She would never have been killed by him…”
Holy crap!
That single sentence left Lin Fan speechless. He couldn’t find a single word to counter. The Future Boundless Buddha King was cunning and immensely powerful.
But in the Frost Deity’s eyes, that bald monk simply didn’t have the guts. How overwhelmingly strong must she be to have such confidence?
At this moment, Lin Fan couldn’t think anymore. His body was gradually freezing. If he didn’t act soon, he would truly become an ice statue.
One thought—ignite the core!
Suddenly, flames ignited in his palm, their heat instantly melting the frost and allowing his inner energy to flow again.
The Frost Deity was astonished, as if she couldn’t believe a mere native could melt her ice.
Lin Fan immediately distanced himself from the Frost Deity. This woman’s power was indeed terrifying. Her frost abilities were practically unbeatable. In this world, he would likely always be at the mercy of her icy influence.
He needed to find a way to escape.
This woman’s strength surpassed even the Future Boundless Buddha King. Although she wasn’t yet a Celestial Sovereign, in Lin Fan’s eyes, she was likely only a single step away from reaching that realm.
As Lin Fan was thinking all this…
The void suddenly trembled violently.
In an instant, two ice spears pierced through space, leaving no time for reaction.
Puchi!
The ice spears pierced through Lin Fan’s shoulders, leaving two bleeding holes from which blood gushed out. Frost began spreading across his skin.
“So strong…” Lin Fan knew he had no chance against this woman. He ignited his core fire, letting the flames burn fiercely. He slammed his hands onto the wounds, driving away the frost and unleashing his inner life force to heal his injuries.
“If you lie, then die.” The Frost Deity coldly declared. Immediately after, the frost in the void erupted violently. The entire sky and earth began to freeze, spreading outward and sealing off Lin Fan’s escape routes.
Lin Fan looked in all directions, his heart sinking. He was done for!
The frost was freezing the sky and earth, cracking and closing in from all sides, forcing him into a corner.
Frowning, Lin Fan knew he had to think of something.
“I’ll speak…” At this critical moment, Lin Fan shouted.
The surrounding frost instantly paused. “Speak.”
Lin Fan looked at the Frost Deity. “I will, but you must let me go.”
The Frost Deity coldly replied, “Fine.”
Lin Fan shook his head. “No, you must swear.”
The Frost Deity’s brows furrowed, clearly displeased.
“If you can’t even agree to this, then kill me. You’ll never know who killed your sister.”
The Frost Deity stared at Lin Fan. “Fine. I, the Frost Deity, swear upon the Primordial Chaos Sovereign: if you speak the truth, I shall spare your life and let you leave today. Should I break this oath, may my divine essence shatter.”
Boom!
The heavens and earth thundered as if in response.
At this moment, Lin Fan finally realized—this was truly the Frost Deity.
Her power was truly overwhelming.
“Speak,” the Frost Deity commanded.
Lin Fan looked at the Frost Deity and quietly said,
“Actually… it was me who killed her…”
