Chapter 56 The Tragedy of the Fifth Elder! A Fairy?
The Fifth Elder's aura instantly reached its peak, and at this moment, all the fear in his heart turned into the motivation to kill Qin Mu.
If Qin Mu hadn't died today, would the Clear Sky Sect still exist in the Douluo Continent in the future?
He dared not think any further.
The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand was faintly flashing with light. Facing Qin Mu, a junior, he had already used all his strength.
With an overwhelming aura spreading out, the Fifth Elder instantly locked onto Qin Mu, and was about to throw the Clear Sky Hammer at him when...
Suddenly, the Fifth Elder seemed to freeze in place, not daring to move an inch.
Cold sweat gradually gathered on his forehead, and almost instantly it turned into large beads of sweat that slid down his face.
A series of sounds, no less impressive than his earlier commotion, came from afar, growing louder as they approached. In the blink of an eye, the Fifth Elder saw a figure walking towards them.
His figure was already over a hundred meters tall, and the aura emanating from him made even the Fifth Elder, with his strength, feel a chill.
The Fifth Elder believed that if he were to face this monster, his fate would likely be to be utterly destroyed.
The next second, the hundred-meter-tall monster arrived in front of the Fifth Elder and, without saying a word, slapped him across the face.
Seeing this, the Fifth Elder suddenly swung out the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.
The Fifth Elder's Clear Sky Hammer was already enormous, but in front of this monster, it looked as small as a thumbtack.
Unsurprisingly, this collision alone caused the Fifth Elder to cough up blood and fly backward like a kite with a broken string.
The monster did not let the Fifth Elder go. Despite being a hundred meters tall, it arrived in front of the Fifth Elder's flying path in the blink of an eye.
Another solid punch landed, and the Fifth Elder's body vanished without a trace, like a sandbag being thrown away.
Having done all this, the giant monster straightened up again, like a towering mountain, and then continued walking into the distance.
On the other side, Qin Mu, who had been knocked away by the Fifth Elder, also saw the monster. Without hesitation, Qin Mu turned around and ran away.
Compared to the monster's speed, Qin Mu was as slow as an ant, but fortunately, the Fifth Elder was there to cover him, which gave Qin Mu time to escape.
Qin Mu hadn't run far when he sensed a figure rapidly approaching him from behind.
Qin Mu unleashed his soul power with all his might, pushing his speed to the limit, but the distance between him and the figure behind him was still rapidly closing.
The next moment, the figure appeared in the snow in front of Qin Mu, moving so fast that it left a deep pit in the snow.
Without hesitation, the Clear Sky Hammer was unleashed once more, and the Clear Sky Hammer intent in his left hand instantly condensed.
At the same time, Qin Mu's first and second spirit rings lit up simultaneously, and as his aura increased, the Heaven and Earth Hammer instantly fused together.
Before the snow mist it had created could even dissipate, Qin Mu's Heaven and Earth Hammer slammed into the deep pit.
A tremendous roar resounded, and the violent impact left cracks in the snow.
Only then did Qin Mu see the figure in the deep pit clearly; it was none other than the Fifth Elder who had chased him for thousands of miles!
However, the Fifth Elder had already lost all his life force by this time. It was unknown whether he was killed by the monster or by Qin Mu's finishing blow.
After glancing at the deep pit, Qin Mu continued running forward. He hadn't forgotten that there was a monster behind him that was even more terrifying than the Fifth Elder!
To Qin Mu's surprise, the monster behind him didn't seem to have any intention of chasing him.
Even though he had made such a commotion, the monster only glanced at him before leaving in a different direction.
Although the crisis on the surface has been averted, it does not mean that Qin Mu is now safe.
After all, the far north is extremely dangerous, and there are many soul beasts as powerful as the monster just encountered.
Qin Mu continued running wildly, not knowing how long he had run, until he had exhausted most of his soul power, before finally stopping and finding an ice crevice to crawl into.
After resting for a long time, still shaken, Qin Mu looked around.
Although the ice crevice was extremely narrow, even Qin Mu could only barely squeeze through, but inside the crevice lay a hidden world.
Before him lay a vast, empty ice cave, surrounded by nothing but cold, solid ice.
Qin Mu was surprised to find that the ice seemed to have been reinforced by someone, and even with Qin Mu's strength, it would take a lot of effort to break it.
Qin Mu took out a jade bottle the size of an arm and as thick as a thigh from his Ruyi Treasure Pouch and held it in his arms.
This jade bottle was crafted from a piece of warm jade that Qin Mu found at a high price in Heaven Dou City, creating a double-layered jade bottle.
Qin Mu made Ling Yuan exert a great deal of effort to simultaneously fill the jade bottle with both the scorching Yang Spring and the extremely cold Yin Spring.
The spring water, with its two extreme properties, was kept at a uniform temperature in the jade bottle, which prevented it from being corroded or damaged.
This extremely hot and extremely cold substance is a rare treasure in the world. Even Qin Mu is willing to go to the trouble of carrying it with him at all times, just in case.
Because the outer layer of the jade bottle contained scorching hot spring water, the jade bottle felt quite warm and comfortable to the touch, making it perfect for Qin Mu to use for warmth at this moment.
Continuing to carefully explore the ice cave, Qin Mu held the jade bottle in his arms not only for warmth but also for another purpose.
Although Qin Mu has escaped from that monster, it is clear that someone or a soul beast once existed in this ice cave.
The scorching Yang Spring inside the jade bottle is extremely deadly to some soul beasts, especially in this far north, where most soul beasts are ice-attribute, the effect is even greater.
If there really were some powerful soul beast, Qin Mu wouldn't have been completely powerless to fight back.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Qin Mu gradually discovered that the view in front of him had become wider and brighter.
A slightly blinding white light flashed out, and Qin Mu immediately found himself in a vast ice cave spanning several thousand square meters.
What surprised Qin Mu the most was that on one side of the ice cave, dozens of huge, dark blue ice blocks were neatly arranged.
Upon closer inspection, Qin Mu was astonished to discover that all of these ice blocks were actually ten-thousand-year-old cold marrow!
His throat bobbed involuntarily, but the tempting opportunity did not cause Qin Mu to lose his mind.
So many ten-thousand-year-old cold marrow neatly arranged here could not possibly have formed naturally; someone must have placed them here!
Looking around, Qin Mu turned his head and saw a snow-white figure.
Or rather, it's just one person!
Her long, white hair cascaded down her back, her sky-blue eyes were clear and bright, and she possessed an absolutely beautiful face.
Although she was wearing only an ordinary white dress, it made her look so elegant and aloof.
At first glance, Qin Mu felt that this woman was like a fairy who had stepped out of the celestial realm!
