Chapter 2911
“Ugh, there’s nothing here! With no treasure in sight, the corpse of this ice spirit beast can’t be worth much either. I might as well take the corpse,” Old Kong grumbled in frustration.
He cursed under his breath and then struck the ice coffin with his palm!
Since there were no other treasures around, he figured that this rare corpse of the ice spirit giant beast must still be a valuable resource. There might even be beast pills hidden within the remains of these ice spirit giants!
However, despite Old Kong’s formidable strength at the eighth grade of the Harmony Realm, when he slapped the ice coffin, it didn’t budge an inch—no cracks, no movement at all!
How could something made of ice be so incredibly tough?
“Old Kong, did you just exhaust all your energy fetching the Ice Ant Beast Pill? How can you be so weak that you can’t even open an ice coffin?” Zuo Qing taunted him.
“Hmph, I just didn’t put in my full effort. It’s just an ice coffin; I can still open it…” Old Kong retorted, gathering his strength for another attempt.
He brought his palm down once more, but yet again, the ice coffin remained closed. This time, Old Kong’s face reflected his growing frustration.
“This is a thousand-year-old cold ice! Ordinary cultivators can’t even hope to damage it. If this ice coffin is made from such enduring material, then the person who sealed it must possess terrifying strength!” Gao Qijie chimed in at that moment.
Though he was unfamiliar with the ice beast inside the coffin, Gao Qijie could immediately recognize the exceptional quality of the ice coffin’s construction.
The ice coffin, formed from millennia-old cold ice, was so resilient that no Harmonious Body realm cultivator could shake it even slightly!
Hearing Gao Qijie’s observations, Old Kong felt disheartened. If he, with his eighth-grade strength, couldn’t move the ice coffin, then the others had no hope of doing so!
After all, he was the strongest among them, and the rest of the group was even weaker, making it impossible for them to open the ice coffin!
“Damn it, what a waste of time! We came here for two beast pills and found nothing but disappointment…” Old Kong grumbled, his dissatisfaction evident.
The others shared his sentiment, originally hoping to find treasures in the palace, only to discover five immovable ice coffins!
They were unable to open the coffins, and even the corpse of the ice beast was out of reach!
Just when the group was feeling dejected and considering leaving, one of the demon cultivators spoke up, “Everyone, stop focusing solely on the ice coffins! Have you noticed those colorful ice crystals? They’re prime cultivation resources!”
As soon as they heard this, the others became intrigued and began to rise, following the man to the top of the tall palace.
Some attempted to grab the ice crystals, but despite their efforts, they remained completely unmoved!
So, they could only absorb the energy from the crystals on-site, unable to take any out!
Before long, they all hovered at the top of the palace, eagerly drawing in the energy from the ice crystals!
Even Gao Qijie joined in with his family, continuously absorbing the energy!
Meanwhile, Kai stayed put and instructed Tile Jar and Ji Yun not to absorb the energy from the ice crystals!
Kai kept a watchful eye on the two demon cultivators. Although they too were drawing energy from the crystals, he sensed they weren’t fully focused and seemed to be observing the crowd secretly!
“Mr. Chen, are we really not going to absorb the energy from those ice crystals?” Vaalgar asked, his curiosity piqued.
“Hold on! I have a bad feeling about this, especially with demon cultivators around. It’s wise to be cautious since we don’t know what they might be planning,” Kai whispered in response.
