Chapter 287 Above the Ice and Under the Ice
Chapter 287 Above the Ice and Under the Ice
Gao Ge raises his head and looks up. He is somewhat surprised.
“Is the above the ice layer?” Gao Ge mutters to himself.
He looks to the front. This is a spacious square, which looks so empty, as if nothing exists. Yet, he cannot see the end of the place.
After taking a deep breath, Gao Ge just starts to speed up and runs all the way.
He doesn’t encounter any scheme.
It seems that the one who can come to this place must be the destined one of the Changcao Hall.
Therefore, this place is unprotected.
Of course, Gao Ge is not sure of it.
After walking forward for a distance, Gao Ge finally stops.
Before him is another palace. To be specific, it is an ice palace. The whole palace is built with coldness. If he didn’t see it with his own eyes, it would be so hard for Gao Ge to think of such a splendid masterpiece. It is huge and cannot be seen on the Ice Magic Festival of some north cities in Huaxia. If he takes a picture of it and posts online, the picture will cause a stir and numerous people will exclaim about this miracle.
As he approaches the ice palace, Gao Ge still doesn’t feel cold, thanks to the Hot Bead inside his body.
Suddenly, he hears a weird sound.
Dong.
The sound comes from the above.
He raises his head subconsciously and looks up to the above only to find that there are people treading on the ice layer.
Those people don’t seem to find the specialty under the ice layer and only focus on walking forward.
After pondering for a while, Gao Ge thinks, “It looks like that the people above the ice layer cannot see what is under the ice layer but the people under the ice layer can see what is above.”
If Yue Xincheng were here, he would feel excited for sure and sit on the ground to look up, expecting that a girl in skirt could pass by.
It seems rather obscene to think in that way. Actually, it is not. As a poem says, I would like to become a stone bridge, ruffled by the winds, solarized by the sun and drenched by the rain, only to wish that the girl could walk across me. See? It becomes so arty.
When Gao Ge heard the poem for the first time, he was so scornful and had only one thought—What a cheesy poem!
He observes for a while. There are four people walking on the bridge but after a while, they stop.
It happens that they stop above Gao Ge.
Three men and a woman.
Sadly enough, the woman is not wearing a skirt.
Through the ice layer, Gao Ge can see clearly their looks, which Gao Ge has never seen before. Two men about 40 years old are carrying an old man in his 60s. The old man’s clothes and face are stained with blood. He must be injured somewhere.
“Are we there yet?” One of the men turns around to look at the only woman and asks.
The woman closes her eyes to feel the place and nods her head, saying in a serious face, “This is it, the place with the richest aura in the whole snow terrain.”
“But this is an ice lake. What specialty does it have?” The man asks with a grimace.
The ice layer is at least 20 meters away from the ground. Besides, there is thick ice in between. However, to Gao Ge’s surprise, he can hear clearly what those people are saying.
“Is the luckiest chance of the secret realm under the ice layer?” The old man sits on the ice layer and asks with his hand covering his chest.
“It is possible.” The woman asks.
Gao Ge is shocked.
Are those people coming to the secret realm for the luckiest chance?
Moreover, they seem to believe that the luckiest chance of the snow terrain is hidden under the ice.
He is a bit worried.
Will these people find the right location and directly dash downwards?
The woman says again, “Hurry up. The bastards of the Dragon Court are after us. Although Earth Dragon is injured by us, they are strong indeed. This time, not many of our men are here. We cannot confront the tough with toughness.”
The woman’s words make Gao Ge’s hair stand on end.
He was curious who the people were on earth. Having heard that, he should come to his senses even if he is a fool.
Since they can injure Earth Dragon, their identity goes without saying.
They are those people!
They are those people who showed up in the Heaven School and are regarded as mortal malady by the Dragon Court.
However, no one tells him what those people are and what they are up to.
But Gao Ge knows they are all masters at the realm of Master.
One of the middle-aged men has taken action.
He stands straight and strikes a punch.
Boom. Instantly, the earth trembles and the mountains sway.
The whole ice layer falls into turbulence.
Gao Ge looks around.
The way towards here has been gone.
If he doesn’t hurry to hide away, Gao Ge will be likely to die here. After all, he is also a member of the Dragon Court and has predicted when and where the secret realm is opened. If these people find that out, they will not let go of him.
Crap. He thought these people would be held up by the capable members of the Dragon Court.
It seems that he has underestimated them.
Luckily, they also look like rather dispirited.
After hesitating for a while, Gao Ge runs towards the ice palace.
He dashes into the ice palace, searching for the exit...
Gao Ge hasn’t been so desperate before.
If caught by those people, he will be killed here for sure.
Above the ice layer, the middle-aged man is still striking punches again and again.
The ice cracks with a bang. The cracks start to extend towards the center, which are thickly dotted just like a spider web.
“Let me do it!”
The other middle-aged man roars and slashes down with the spear. As the cold light hits against the ice, the cracking sound rises and falls continuously.
Then, the river water spreads over.
Without saying anything, the woman jumps into the lake and only feels the piercing cold.
After diving under the water for a long time, she comes back with a wet body.
“There is nothing under the water other than some colorful fish and waterweeds.” The woman says with a frown and a pale complexion.
“How come?” The old man looks so staggered.
“Are the fish and waterweeds the lucky chance?” The middle-aged man holding the spear asks with a grimace.
“The fish does have some aura but they are only ordinary rare beasts with mediocre attacking power. In my view, they are not as rare as the malicious beasts we met on the mountain.” The woman says with a bitter smile.
The four people sit on the wrecked ice and look at each other.
After making much effort, they didn’t expect to come to such a disgraceful end.
“How about me going down to have a look?” The man with the spear asks.
“We don’t have time. The people of the Dragon Court will come here after hearing the noise. We are no match for them so we can only keep fleeing.” The woman says.
They keep sighing and feel helpless...
Having entered the ice palace, Gao Ge looks around.
