Bang!
The speed of the beautiful figure was simply too fast, so fast that Qin Shi didn't even have time to react. A huge force directly slammed into his chest, and his body, which had just stepped into the hall, was blasted away.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the main hall was shocked. Fang Qing hurriedly stood up and supported Qin Shi with gentle force.
However, that beautiful figure did not seem to have vented her anger because of this. Cold currents that could freeze the heavens and earth gathered in her lily-white hands. An ice spear was aimed at Qin Shi and shot out.
Bang!
Right at this moment, the strange green silhouette flashed, and the Skysplitter Sword collided head-on with the ice spear. Two primordial forces immediately exploded in the Sword Sect's hall, and it was terrifying like a falling comet. The Sword Sect's hall was constructed from Ten Thousand Year Dark Iron, and it was formed from countless Dark Crystals. Coupled with the defensive formation set up by the ancestors of the Sword Sect, it was extremely difficult for even an ordinary Region Realm expert to easily destroy it. However, at the instant these two forces exploded, countless cracks immediately appeared on the hall.
The bricks and tiles on the ground flew into the air and then froze in midair.
"He Shuhan, this is my Sword Sect. Don't treat yourself like an outsider!" Qi Qing shouted angrily with a gloomy gaze.
He Shuhan's eyes were like ice as she stared fixedly at Qin Shi and said angrily, "Get out of my way. Xue Xin is in grave danger because of the ice poison in her bones. I'll make him pay today!"
When Qi Qing saw this, she turned her Sky Destroyer Sword and stopped He Shuhan from the side, "We feel sad about what happened to Qin Xue Xin, but this has nothing to do with Qin Shi. Moreover, no one asked her to draw the ice poison into her body!"
"Cut the crap!" He Shuhan stabbed with her ice spear again.
"Hmph, do you really think I'm afraid of you just because I've been asleep for 3,000 years?" Qi Qing wasn't willing to show weakness.
Meanwhile, Qin Shi's eyes were blank. He suddenly charged forward and stood between them. Qi Qing frowned when she saw him, "Kid, do you want to die?
She wants to kill you! "
Qin Shi ignored Qi Qing's shout and stared at He Shuhan in disbelief. His voice trembled in the hall, "What, what did you just say?
What happened to Xue Xin? "
When He Shuhan saw the deep hatred in Qin Shi's eyes, she said, "She guided the ice in her dantian into her bloodline. If her cultivation level was only at the Heaven Realm, I could still use my Deep Sea Mystic Ice to shake her back. However, her cultivation level is now at the perfected Domain Realm. The coldness of her ice power is no weaker than mine. Even I can't save her."
"This … this, how is this possible?"
Qin Shi's black eyes suddenly became empty. These days, he kept telling himself that Xue Xin would definitely be fine, but in the end … this was the result?
"Brat, back then, you promised me that you wouldn't let anything happen to Xue Xin and that you would take good care of her. But now, her life is in danger because of you. Do you have any objections if I kill you today?" He Shu's ice spear pierced towards Qin Shi as she shouted.
At this moment, Qin Shi truly had nothing left to live for. That's right … Back then, he swore that he would protect her well … Ultimately, because of him, he caused her to lose her life. How could he have the face to continue living in this world?
That was the woman he loved the most. If she died, what reason did he have to live on?
What was the purpose of all these years of hard work?
At this moment, Qin Shi's faith seemed to have collapsed.
"Since you're not speaking, I'll take it that you agree!" He Shuhan really wanted to kill him. Her ice spear pierced towards Qin Shi's heart.
At this moment, Qi Qing and Fang Qing's eyes narrowed. "Damn it!
Qin Shi, dodge! "
"Brat, don't be silly!
If you're alive, you still have a chance. If you die, you won't have any chance at all! "
At this moment, the evil spirit was also anxious. He had even come out of the totem. If Qin Shi did not dodge, he might ignore the danger of being discovered by the eight regions and save Qin Shi.
"Master!
No! "
At this moment, an extremely pale and delicate voice sounded. Qin Xue Xin's jade face was pale and pure as ice. She rushed out from the sky and stood in front of Qin Shi.
"Xue Xin?" He Shuhan frowned slightly and said with concern, "Why are you here?
Didn't I tell you to rest in the sect? "
"Master … I beg you, let him go … I don't want anything to happen to him, Master … I beg you."
Qin Xue Xin did not respond to He Shuhan. Her voice trembled as she said softly. It was obvious that she was very weak. If not for Qin Shi's faith supporting her, she would have already fainted.
Facing Qin Xue Xin, He Shuhan really could not bear it. She hugged Qin Xue Xin in her arms and softly said with a choked voice, "Silly girl … you're not worth it."
"Master … all these years, people have always died because of me. I understand that kind of pain. If I die … he's the one being punished. I think right now, he would rather be the one dying, right?
At least he doesn't have to suffer in this world. "
Qin Xue Xin sobbed softly and said, "Promise me … Master, don't make things difficult for him. It's not his fault. I want him to live."
He Shuhan was finally moved and nodded, "Alright, I promise you."
Only then did Qin Xuexin feel at ease. She looked at Qin Shi and said, "You promised me that you would live."
"Xue Xin …!" Qin Shi was so angry that he did not even know what to say.
Qin Xue Xin smiled, "Silly, you still found out in the end. Forget it, it's a pity that we haven't fulfilled our promise to go to the sea together."
Qin Shi shook his head vigorously, his eyes were red and he gritted his teeth, "You won't die!
You won't die!
Even if I have to go against the heavens, I will find a way to save you! "
Qin Xue Xin did not shatter Qin Shi's hope, even though she knew it was impossible. She nodded gently, "I believe you, I will work hard to wait."
Looking at Xue Xin's self-deception, He Shuhan could not stand it anymore and turned around.
"Sect Leader He, Xue Xin … how long does she have?" Qin Shi clenched his fists and asked.
He Shuhan sighed and shook her head, "I have already injected the Deep Sea Mystic Ice into her body to temporarily suppress the cold poison in her body, but … it can only last for three months at most."
"Three years?" Qin Shi gritted his teeth, it was much more urgent than he had expected.
"Actually, it is not impossible to expel the cold poison in Xue Xin's body," Lu Shan suddenly said.
"Huh?" Everyone turned to look at Lu Shan.
"Elder Lu Shan, do you have a way?" Qin Shi rushed forward excitedly.
Lu Shan thought for a moment, then said, "I am not sure, but I can try."
"What way?"
"Ancient Divine Artifact!" Lu Shan said solemnly after a moment of silence.
"Ancient Divine Artifact?" At this time, not only Qin Shi, but even He Shuhan and Qi Qing frowned.
Lu Shan nodded, "According to the ancient books, the Ancient Divine Artifact is forged by gathering the spirits of heaven and earth, containing the fundamental power of all things, and gathering the mutants of the eight regions. Since ancient times, the cold poison can only be cured by an item of extreme Yang, but the ice in Sect Leader He and Xue Xin's body has long been cultivated to an impenetrable state, so to cure the cold poison, I think only the Primordial Fire in the Divine Artifact can expel it, right?"
Hearing this, Qin Shi was stunned. He did not really understand, but he understood what Lu Shan meant. As long as they could obtain the Divine Artifact, they could save Xue Xin. He turned to look at He Shuhan, trying to find out the truth. He Shuhan also thought for a moment, then nodded, "Logically speaking, if it is the Primordial Fire in the Divine Artifact, it may really be able to expel the cold poison in Xue Xin's body."
"Really?"
Qin Shi's black eyes flashed wildly. Although he understood that obtaining the Divine Artifact was as difficult as ascending to heaven, in this endless darkness, no matter how small the light was, the Divine Artifact was still a ray of salvation.
Qin Shi said to Xue Xin excitedly, "Xue Xin, did you hear that?
You can be saved, you can be saved. "
Unexpectedly, Qin Xue Xin's jade-like face stiffened … It was very unsightly. She looked at Qin Shi worriedly, pursed her lips and whispered, "Shi Tou … don't go looking for the Divine Artifact … it's too dangerous. I don't want anything to happen to you because of saving me. If that happens, even if I survive, it will be a fate worse than death."
Qin Shi shook his head, "No, nothing will happen to us. We still have to fulfill our promise to see the sea."
Immediately, Qin Shi hesitated for a moment. He did not give Qin Xue Xin a chance to speak anymore. He had already made up his mind. Moreover, even if there was no Qin Xue Xin, he could not escape the responsibility of the Divine Artifact. Whether it was for Kong Hyun-hui or for the grudge with the Ma Group, he would definitely participate in the battle for the Divine Artifact soon. And Qin Xue Xin only gave him another reason not to fail.
At this time, he looked at He Shuhan. Three months was still too short of a time. He still did not know the location of the Divine Artifact. Even if he knew, it was still impossible to break the seal in three months. He said, "Sect Leader He … do you have a way to prolong the spread of Xue Xin's ice poison?"
He Shuhan thought for a moment and said, "There is a way. In the Blue Snow Sect, there is a deep sea ice lake. The cold of the lake is enough to freeze the vitality of the human body and reduce the metabolism of the human body to the lowest level. Ordinary people who enter the lake can live for thousands of years without aging or dying. But … once they enter the lake, unless we find a way to cure Xue Xin's ice poison, she will never be able to leave the lake. Otherwise, the ice poison will completely erupt and crush Xue Xin's heart in an instant."
Hearing this, Qin Shi was slightly startled. He turned to look at Qin Xue Xin.
"Xue Xin, do you trust me?"
Qin Xue Xin's delicate body trembled. Under Qin Shi's gentleness, she would never be able to resist. "I do."
"Wait for me at the deep sea ice lake … three years. At most three years, I will come to find you!
Whether we live or die, we will be together! "
Qin Xue Xin bit her lips. She wanted to refuse, but how could she bear to say it?
Finally, she took out a jade pendant from her bosom. The jade pendant was an icy blue crescent moon. She nodded lightly and said, "Okay, I will wait for you. For thousands of years, I will wait for you. But you must take this jade pendant and wear it. As long as it is with you, it will be like I am by your side."
Qin Shi was stunned. He knew this jade pendant. It was a keepsake left to Qin Xue Xin by her mother. He hesitated for a moment, then took it and wore it around his neck. He nodded vigorously and said, "Okay!
I will always wear it. "
