School Beauty's Personal Crazy Young Master

Chapter 792: Chapter 869: The Severed Arm in the Cauldron

It wasn’t just the Black Feathered Chicken that was excited, Chen Nan and Zhao Han were even more so.

Chasing after the treasure, they had come all this way, which could be described as fraught with numerous hardships, having brushed past death more than once.

”This temperature could freeze a person to death.”

Zhao Han’s body was shivering, and he reached out towards the Three-legged Round Tripod.

The tripod was definitely four meters tall, quite massive, and he could only touch its feet. But the moment his fingertips touched the foot of the tripod, an endless surge of coldness travelled through his fingers, instantly freezing his entire body. A layer of frost covered him, completely robbing him of the ability to move.

Seeing this situation was bad, Chen Nan hurriedly struck Zhao Han’s chest with his palm, sending him flying several meters away, which finally freed him from the invasion of coldness.

”Damn it, you didn’t freeze to death, did you?”

Chen Nan channeled his Inner Strength into his body, and after several minutes, the frost on Zhao Han’s body gradually melted, and his mobility was restored.

Zhao Han shivered coldly, shook his head, and got up, cursing, ”That’s too twisted. Fortunately, you acted in time. If it had been any later, I might have turned into an ice sculpture.”

”With such severe coldness, even if we find it, we can’t take it out!” Chen Nan said in frustration.

Zhao Han nodded and said, ”It’s too cold. I fear even an Earth Master couldn’t withstand such coldness! I think we better forget it. Although the treasure is valuable, if we end up frozen into blocks of ice, that’s no joke.”

Zhao Han clearly remembered the feeling of his body instantly freezing when he had touched the Round Tripod.

Chen Nan’s expression was resolute as he shook his head and said, ”No matter what, even if it freezes me to death, I must take the treasure!”

Zhao Han said, ”Don’t be so reckless. We can’t handle a treasure of this level!”

”Don’t try to persuade him. Once this kid makes up his mind, he definitely won’t change it,” the Black Feathered Chicken said, shaking its head. Zhao Han didn’t know the reason why Chen Nan was after the Extreme Cold Treasure, but it understood very well and explained, ”His junior sister was afflicted by Poison Fire, she needs an item with Ice Cold Attribute to suppress it.”

After a long silence, Zhao Han nodded and said, ”I can understand your reasoning, but with our level of Cultivation, how could we possibly take this treasure away?”

”Regardless, I must try.”

Chen Nan made up his mind, circulated his Inner Strength, and his body surged with Demonic Qi as he reached for the tripod’s foot.

Zhao Han also prepared himself. Should anything go awry, he would replicate what Chen Nan had done earlier and push him away with a palm.

But to his surprise—

”Click... ”

With a slight sound, Chen Nan’s hand landed on the foot of the tripod, but his body did not freeze.

”Damn, it’s really cold!”

Chen Nan said shivering. He could definitely feel the coldness emanating from the Round Tripod, but as the cold invaded, he found his blood beginning to circulate faster, generating heat and completely neutralizing the invading coldness.

Chen Nan had always been rather unfamiliar with his physique, even somewhat curious.

His blood was the nemesis to the War Corpses. Now, upon contact with the coldness, his blood began to circulate faster, neutralizing the lethal coldness. He hadn’t been frozen like Zhao Han had.

”Take it!”

After grabbing the Round Tripod, Chen Nan tried to store it in his storage ring.

However, things did not go as he wished. Despite using all his effort to stretch open the storage ring, the Round Tripod would not budge and couldn’t be stored.

”How could this be?”

Chen Nan let go, feeling that something was strange.

The space inside the storage ring he held was much larger than the Three-legged Round Tripod, yet it couldn’t fit inside.

”For a treasure of this level, many scenarios cannot be measured by common sense,” Black Feathered Chicken said.

After hesitating for a moment, Chen Nan said, ”I’ll go up and take a look, there might be some mysteries inside the tripod.”

Having said that, Chen Nan leaped up and jumped to the edge of the tripod’s mouth.

Upon looking inside the tripod, Chen Nan was greatly shocked.

The tripod was only about four meters tall, but looking inside, it seemed as though it was dozens of meters deep. The area at the bottom of the tripod seemed to be several tens of square meters wide, and what was more shocking was that in the very center of the tripod’s bottom, there was actually a human arm!

This arm, with skin as creamy and fingers delicate and slender like scallions, also wore a crystal ring.

Chen Nan was dumbfounded.

This was a woman’s left hand, the break was bloody and muddled, the fresh red blood as if it had just flowed out, the wound did not look like it had been chopped off, but rather as if it had been torn off by force!

In such low temperatures, it wasn’t strange that it hadn’t rotted over endless years.

But Chen Nan discovered that all the chill wasn’t emanating from the Round Tripod, but from that arm. The reason why the tripod was so cold was purely because it was affected by the low temperature of the arm.

An arm, emitting such a strong chill!

This chill not only affected the Large Tripod but even the entire Dead City and the temperature of the area for miles around!

Whose arm was this?

Chen Nan felt that this person definitely cultivated an Ice Cold Attribute technique, and must have had peerless cultivation during her lifetime, such that even a severed arm could emit such intense cold and remain indestructible through endless years.

Yet, such a person with peerless cultivation had her arm gruesomely torn off, how terrifying must her enemy be?

Chen Nan couldn’t bear to imagine.

Zhao Han and Black Feathered Chicken both looked perplexed, ”What exactly did you see?”

”An arm.”

Chen Nan was still somewhat in shock; all this was just too unbelievable.

Zhao Han and Black Feathered Chicken thought they had misheard and quickly flew up, one riding a Flying Sword and the other flapping its wings, yet both dared not stand atop the Round Tripod like Chen Nan, fearing they might freeze stiff.

Upon looking into the tripod, they were both instantly dumbfounded, ”This...this...is really an arm!”

Chen Nan seriously said, ”Look carefully, all this chill is coming from that severed arm.”

”So it turns out, the Round Tripod is not an Extreme Cold Treasure at all!” Zhao Han looked perplexed and said, ”Could it be that this so-called Extreme Cold Treasure is actually this severed arm?”

Black Feathered Chicken muttered, ”With tender skin and long jade fingers, she must have been a great beauty in life.”

”Lewd Chicken!”

Both of them flipped a middle finger at it.

Chen Nan said, ”Dead chicken, you seem to like it quite a bit, go down and get it.”

”Forget about it, Chicken Lord would like to live a few more years,” Black Feathered Chicken shrank its neck and quickly turned to flee.

Zhao Han stared at Chen Nan, saying, ”You’re not thinking of going down there, are you?”

”I must go down and investigate. If the treasure is indeed this severed arm, I have no choice but to bring it back,” Chen Nan calmly said, thinking of the pain his junior sister suffered from the outbreak of the Poison Fire, he really couldn’t bear it.
