Lin Chen was in free fall with his head pointing down, and both arms were crossed behind his head. He had been in this state for almost ten minutes, and there was no sign of getting to the bottom.
Sunlight also could not illuminate the hole here, so his gaze was slightly disturbed, although he could still see around through his consciousness.
"Auntie, how long will it take to arrive? I'm getting bored."
"A little while."
Lin Chen let out a long breath, this was already the number of times he had gotten that answer, but until now it had not yet gotten to the bottom either.
Long Xia Yun clenched his right hand when he heard Lin Chen grumbling, he finally brought his two nephews up again just like before and flew at his highest speed.
Wush! Bang out!
In just the blink of an eye alone, Lin Chen had already been brought down to the bottom and created waves of wind that spread out in all directions, hitting the huge stone wall. From the blow it gave rise to an extremely loud sound, even Lin Chen had to feel pain in his ears and his bones rubbing.
"How's it?"
Lin Chen who was in that supine position could only remain silent and could not move his body which was still aching. This was truly terrifying, and he felt regret for provoking Long Xia Yun's anger. For a moment he had forgotten that his Aunt was an Early Tongzhi, and seemed to have returned to the Intermediate stage.
"He-Great." Lin Chen raised his left hand stiffly and gave a compliment using his thumb.
"Eh?" Lin Chen had only realized that he could already see clearly. The walls here emitted a blue-white light like the Ice Element, and there was faintly a cold feeling that began to bone-chicken.
Long Xia Yun snorted with an arrogant face while ruffled by the waist. "Huh! Never grumble in front of Auntie."
Lin Chen gave a small nod and again lowered his hand, as well as waiting for his bones to regenerate due to the quite painful fall earlier. The injuries he suffered were quite severe, given his usually very fast regeneration, such as malfunctioning from being brought down by Long Xia Yun.
Long Xia Yun crouched down next to Lin Chen's face and poked his cheek with his index finger. "Why? Come on, you said you wanted to come."
Lin Chen was really upset that his cheeks were being played, and instead helped to heal his deep wounds which were quite severe. But he couldn't complain, or he would get hurt even worse.
Long Xia Yun shook his head softly with a warm smile engraved on his face, laughing as he learned what Lin Chen was thinking. He drained his spiritual energy on Lin Chen's chest, and at that very instant all of his internal injuries were completely healed.
Lin Chen pressed both his hands on the frozen ground, propped himself up to sit down then stood up while patting his clothes.
Xue Ying who had already descended together only kept silent and looked at Lin Chen who was being played with by Long Xia Yun, while eating a snack like he was watching a show.
Lin Chen's gaze became wider as he was already standing, he could see where they were at the moment. This was the dungeon, which seemed to have been inhabited by powerful Cultivators of its time, and was coincidentally exposed to the fall of the Ancient Mayan Space Ship.
The reason why Lin Chen thought that this was a residence, it was because he saw a myriad of branching caves.
"Ho Liiu's Divine Artifact was discovered by Star Sheng Cultivator who lived here, but being unable to withstand the pressure from the artifact, he was killed and his place turned into an ice domain." Long Xia Yun walked straight ahead, leading to a three-branched cave.
Lin Chen was very curious about Uncle Ho, only with his artifacts alone was able to make him feel the cold, even though he belonged to the owner of the Ice Element and had already reached the Comprehension Element stage.
The branch that was taken was the one in the middle, as there was the source of the extremely pressing aura. To the left and right, it seemed to be a resource storage space.
When it had entered the middle branch, the cold aura that was felt was even stronger, even to the point of making Lin Chen cold.
The light here was brighter than the one outside, and there was also the pure energy of the Ice Element that was extremely condensed.
"Use your time to cultivate, after you raise the Ice Element, then Auntie will take out the Divine Artifact."
Lin Chen gave a small nod and tilted his body, seeing what exactly the Divine Artifact that was in front of his Aunt was. He could see there was a belt of light blue cloth like the sky, and there was frost emanating from it.
A cold aura started to enter all over Lin Chen's body, including all the internal organs and blood and bones. But he did not feel a piercing cold, but rather a soothing warm feeling. He felt that there were two auras mixed into one, one of those auras belonged to Long Xia Yun who helped him absorb the pure energy of the Ice Element.
Every time that passed, there would be a significant change in Lin Chen's body, and the most noticeable one was the color of his hair. Lin Chen's previously black hair color started to turn a whitish blue and continued to change like sky blue.
On the part of his eyebrows also changed and vaguely there are fine lines that appear along the arms to the neck. That fine line was a sign of an active Spirit Body by itself.
After successfully breaking through the Heavenly Immortal God, Lin Chen did not need to always activate the Spirit Body to create a clone.
Lin Chen's Spirit Body was active due to the improvement, after his soul was slightly disturbed within this room and was aided by Long Xia Yun's energy.
In this cultivation, he also took quite a long time because this extremely pure aura was the best chance to help him break through the Late stage of the Divine God.
Minutes change hours, hours change days, and days change weeks. Lin Chen was still sitting cross-legged on the frozen floor surface, and was accompanied by a Long Xia Yun. As for Xue Ying, he returned to the Eternal City because there was something to do.
***
A month had passed since Lin Chen's arrival to the Liyang Mainland, and until now he was still deep in the depths of the ground absorbing the pure energy of the Ice Element.
A cold wind started to create around Lin Chen's body and made the temperature in the cave even colder than a month ago.
"Auntie, it seems like Big Brother is almost done," said Xue Ying who was sitting relaxing on the rocking chair.
Long Xia Yun gave a small nod while eating a snack. "Right, the aura of his cultivation also increased ..."
"By the way, what about your affairs in the Eternal City?" Long Xia Yun continued his words while looking to the right.
"It's over, and Brother Xue asks Brother. He wanted to meet the real Brother, not a clone. Moreover, Big Brother's clone is also meditating due to the direction from Mother," Xue Ying said explaining the circumstances in the Eternal City.
Long Xia Yun gave a small nod and turned his attention back to Lin Chen.
The cold wind around Lin Chen grew stronger like a storm, and that was why Long Xia Yun's warm tea and snacks froze in an instant. Seen, Lin Chen's eyelids started twitching, and shortly after it began to open slowly.
Bang out!
Lin Chen's cultivation aura detached with a cold aura that spread stronger than before, along with a light blue light that surged up into the ceiling of the cave until it pierced to the surface. The entire place inside the cave was also frozen like an extremely cold and slippery ice.
Lin Chen stood up slowly with the appearance of his hair that had still not changed, even the clothes he was wearing instead became blue like a clear sky.
The Divine Artifact hanging on the wooden stick started to tremble violently like it had its own consciousness, which then shot sharply towards Lin Chen and wrapped around his waist.
Lin Chen's eyes changed color and looked ice dew emanating from him. When he raised his right hand, the ground below him stood up started to tremble and create an extremely tall ice pillar.
This ice pillar has a shield on its top, which serves to destroy the ceiling of the cave that is blocking.
Long Xia Yun who was looking at it fell silent with his mouth slightly opened, then a warm smile was seen on his face. "It seems, this Divine Artifact is a gift to Chen'er."
