Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

165: Frozen Abyss Ice Crystals, Ice Soul Poisonous Scorpion!Chen Changsheng led Chuanwu and the other, carefully diving toward the bottom of the pool. The surroundings were pitch black without a sliver of light; sunlight could no longer reach this depth.

Six hundred meters, seven hundred meters, eight hundred meters. Just as the three of them were about to dive past eight hundred meters, a patch of crystalline white light shimmered not far below them.

”Dad, look quickly under the deep pool! There is white light shining; there must be something unusual!”

Chuanjie exclaimed immediately. Chen Changsheng nodded and said with a serious expression, ”Prepare for an attack; let’s dive over and take a look!”

Chen Changsheng led the two of them into the light. Upon approaching, they saw a magnificent and beautiful scene.

An abyss appeared at the bottom of the pool, and on both sides of the abyss were dense rows of ice pillars, each one crystal clear and glowing with white light.

Hundreds of ice pillars gathered their scattered points of white light together, illuminating the world at the bottom of the pool.

”It’s so cold, Dad!” Chen Chuanjie couldn’t help but shiver. Chen Changsheng also felt the cold seeping into his bones; only Chuanwu, who practiced body refinement, felt slightly better.

”Bear with it. Let’s go down and take a look to see what those ice pillars are and what that abyss is!” Chen Changsheng said in a low voice to Chuanjie, then led the two of them to land on the bottom of the pool.

”This is... cold abyss ice crystal?” Chen Changsheng endured the cold, walked up to an ice pillar, and observed it carefully for a while before his eyes suddenly widened.

He had once seen an introduction to cold abyss ice crystals while perusing books on cultivation.

This type of crystal generally grows in the extremely cold regions of the Great Snowy Mountains in the far north. A fist-sized piece of cold abyss ice crystal can release cold air for a hundred years without melting, equivalent to a refrigerator.

That is only its most minor function; it has two major functions.

The first function is to refine Seal Magical Artifacts. Its inherent power of ice, when combined with refinement, can create an ice crystal sealing box. Not only can it Seal plants, wood, gold, and stone, keeping them from rotting for a thousand years, but it can also forcibly capture and Seal Cultivators at the Qi Refinement Stage.

The second function is to purify evil spirits. The cold abyss ice crystal contains a pure purification energy. When released, it can purify polluted Spiritual Qi and damage caused by evil spirits, and can even directly harm the main body of an evil spirit.

This thing is priceless in the Great Xuan Dynasty on the shores of the East Sea. A single block of ice crystal is enough to exchange for a high-quality Flying Sword Magical Artifact!

”Chuanjie, cut off a piece for me; I want to take it back!” Chen Changsheng tried to break it with his hands but found the cold abyss ice crystal was quite hard. He couldn’t break it at all, so he had to call for Chuanjie; his sword was very sharp and should be effective.

”Dad, watch this!” Chuanjie drew his netherworld sword and struck the cold abyss ice crystal, but it actually sparked, and the ice crystal remained completely unaffected.

”Damn it. This thing is quite hard!” Chen Chuanjie couldn’t help but look serious. Although he didn’t know what this was, he had seen the look of surprise on Chen Changsheng’s face earlier. He felt that this thing was a treasure and he must take it back.

”Dark Flood Dragon Swallows the Mountain, second sword, Tun Yue - Third Sword!” Chen Chuanjie shouted, then fiercely swung the netherworld sword in his hand. A small black flood dragon appeared, transformed into a streak of black light, and pierced through an ice pillar.

”Crack!” The ice pillar broke instantly. Chen Changsheng happily picked up the fallen cold abyss ice crystal. This piece was a full meter high and as thick as a person’s waist; it now belonged to Chen Changsheng.

”Chuanjie, can you cut a few more pieces?” Chen Changsheng, that greedy guy, wanted Chuanjie to cut two more pieces. Chuanjie frowned and said, ”Dad, this ice crystal is too hard. I used half of my magical power just for that one strike. If I do it again, I’ll probably exhaust my magical power!”

Hearing Chuanjie’s words, Chen Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh. He looked at the ice crystals covering the bottom of the pool with a regretful expression and said in a low voice, ”A Heaven And Earth Treasure is right in front of us, yet we cannot take it; what a pity!”

Hearing Chen Changsheng’s sigh, Chuanwu couldn’t help but scratch his head and said in a low voice, ”Dad, can’t we just come back and take it next time we dive down? It’s not like it can run away, right?”

Hearing Chuanwu’s words, Chen Changsheng, who had been bewitched by the treasure, suddenly sobered up. He patted Chuanwu on the shoulder and laughed loudly, ”Haha, Chuanwu, you’re right. These cold abyss ice crystals don’t have legs. Since they are staying at the bottom of Jade Dragon Pool, they will be our Chen family’s sooner or later!”

”Let’s go, let’s go see what is strange about that abyss at the bottom of the pool!” Chen Changsheng led Chuanwu and the other toward the abyss. The closer they got, the more biting the cold air became. Chen Changsheng could barely stand it, feeling as if his whole body was about to freeze stiff.

It was like returning to his days as a Mortal, wearing only a single layer of clothing in the middle of a night at twenty degrees below zero, feeling the bone-piercing cold!

”This place is truly piercingly cold!” Even Chuanwu, who had the strongest physique and the most abundant Yang Qi among the three, couldn’t help but shiver and exhale a breath of cold air!

”The more it’s like this, the more I want to see what’s inside!” Chen Changsheng, on the contrary, became excited. His curiosity about the abyss was exceptionally strong, so he finally endured the bitter cold and arrived in front of the abyss.

Deep! Deep to the point where one couldn’t see the end at a glance! Black! It was like a black hole devouring light!

Chen Changsheng looked down into the abyss and couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. People are always nervous when facing the fear of the unknown. This abyss was like a bottomless pit drilled into the earth, with no end in sight.

When you look down into the abyss, you get the feeling that it is also staring back at you!

”This place is truly eerie, dark, and cold. I doubt anything could live here. Let’s go back!” Chen Changsheng still felt some fear in his heart, so he found a random excuse and wanted to take the two of them away.

Just at this moment, Chuanwu, whose six senses were the sharpest, suddenly stopped, his expression serious, as he listened intently.

”Wait, there is something!” Chen Changsheng and Chuanjie both looked at Chuanwu. Seeing their puzzled gazes, Chuanwu explained, ”I hear a rustling sound coming from the abyss. Listen carefully!”

Hearing Chuanwu’s words, Chen Changsheng and the other also listened carefully. A few minutes later, they also heard the rustling sound.

”It’s very close; it’s coming up!” Chuanwu suddenly shouted in a low voice, then threw the monster fish corpse under him, picked up his long spear, and prepared for battle!

Chen Changsheng and the other were also jolted. They quickly prepared their defenses; after all, whatever crawled out of this eerie place certainly wouldn’t be a mermaid, and it was likely something deadly!

Finally, patches of light spots appeared in the abyss. When they crawled out of the abyss and were exposed to the light, Chen Changsheng finally saw clearly that they were actually thousands of scorpions with crystal-clear bodies!

Each of them was only the size of a thumb, their bodies looking as if they were carved from ice, appearing extremely beautiful. However, their tails, raised high, flashed with a faint green light, reminding Chen Changsheng and the others that they were not handicrafts, but highly poisonous scorpions!

”Wait... this thing is... an Ice Soul Poison Scorpion?”
