Chapter 42 Cold Pool Encounter

The water in the pond crashed and the jade waves broke. A white light flashed and an object appeared on the surface of the water. Chu Jun fixed his gaze on it, and immediately didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had the urge to shatter the egg in pain. A thing the size of a thumb was lying on the surface of the water. That's right, it was a toad the size of a thumb. However, the shape of this toad showed that it was not an ordinary scab.

Its entire body was translucent and translucent, as if it was carved out of ice. Its two eyes occupied a large proportion, even more protruding than a goldfish. Its four-footed web spread open and floated steadily on the surface of the water. The cold pool water beneath it sunk slightly, as if it had formed a thin film. On the surface of the pool shrouded in cold mist, this toad looked extremely immortal. What an old clam!

Toad stared at the flower on the ice ridge with his big eyes bulging out, occasionally sticking out his tongue, as if he was greedy and anxious. At this time, half of the flower buds that looked like ice lotuses had already opened. The pale yellow stamens inside were completely exposed, and the fragrance in the air was getting denser and denser.

Chu Jun observed for a while. No matter how he looked at it, this toad did not look very powerful. Just as he was about to rush out to clean up the strange flower and toad, a piece of ice suddenly fell from above his head and fell into Chu Jun's neck. It was so cold that it slid all the way to his back. It felt uncomfortable. Chu Jun couldn't help but raise his head and sweep his gaze, instantly dumbfounded.

It turned out that there was actually a person lying in the snow on the rock, covered with a white cloak. If she did not raise her head, she would not be able to find her at all. The woman's cold gaze warned Chu Jun and withdrew. She continued to remain motionless without revealing any aura. Only then did Chu Jun regain his senses. His heart was filled with shock, and his mind was filled with astonishment. It turned out that there was actually someone in the world who was as beautiful as Senior Sister Zhao .

Indeed, even though it was just a glance, this woman's peerless appearance still strongly impacted Chu Jun's brain nerves, the ice-like woman. If Zhao Yu was as gentle as water and as warm as jade, then the woman on the rock was as elegant as snow and as translucent as ice. Chu Jun compared Zhao Yu to this woman in his heart and found it hard to tell who was more beautiful. Ning Yun was a picturesque beauty from ten thousand miles away. However, compared to Zhao Yu, Chu Jun did not hesitate to feel that Ning Yun was far inferior to Zhao Yu. She was not of the same level at all. However, the woman on the rock was not at all inferior to Zhao Yu.

Chu Jun thought of the big white bird a few days ago. The white-clothed person on the bird's back was very likely the ice and snow woman on the rock. She was obviously hiding here for the sake of that toad, otherwise, she would have already picked that strange flower and left.

Wow! The frog on the cold pond let out a loud cry and went back to the bottom of the pond with a whoosh, as if it had sensed a potential danger. Chu Jun cried out in his heart, it would be difficult to catch it this time.

What surprised Chu Jun was that the woman on the rock was still motionless, as if she was very confident that the toad would appear again. Chu Jun also patiently remained motionless.

At this time, all the strange flowers on the ice ridge had already opened. The six translucent petals gently swayed in the cold mist. The tender yellow medicinal stamens seemed to be changing color, gradually becoming transparent, and the fragrance in the air became denser and denser.

Suddenly, the pond water let out a soft pu sound. A white light shot out from the water and landed on the lotus leaf of the plant. It was precisely that snow-white and translucent toad. Chu Jun was delighted in his heart, but the woman on the rock remained motionless, as if she didn't intend to make a move at all. Chu Jun couldn't help but be puzzled. He had an impulse to try. However, he soon realized that something was wrong. That toad was extremely alert. It leaned on the jade-green leaves and rolled its eyes. It seemed like it was ready to slip away at any moment.

Chu Jun secretly shouted in shame, so he patiently waited. After a cup of tea, the toad probably sensed that its surroundings were very safe, so it jumped up with a flower petal in its mouth and jumped back into the pond. After floating on the water for a while, it began to chew heavily.

Chu Jun suspected that this toad had already become a spirit, as cunning as a ghost. Just like that, the toad went back and forth six times and ate all six flowers of the strange flower. Chu Jun couldn't help but shout in his heart, "Unfortunately, it seems impossible for the ice and snow woman to catch this cunning toad spirit."

At this moment, the toad that had finished swallowing the petals licked its tongue endlessly and jumped onto the leaf again. Chu Jun noticed that the size of the foodie was clearly swollen, and its belly was bulging.

The toad clumsily jumped up and swallowed the last flower stamen. At this moment, the woman on the rock flew out. The white cloak carried snow all over the sky and pounced straight towards the toad on the edge of the cold lake. The frog let out a loud hum and jumped towards the frost pool. The ice-snow woman seemed to have predicted it long ago. A cold light flashed in her hand and a flying sword flew out in pursuit of the wind and lightning.

Dang!

With a crisp sound, the toad accurately collided with the flying sword and immediately bounced back into the snow on the shore. The sudden attack seemed to have confused the toad, and it stood on all fours for 0.5 seconds before turning around and fleeing for its life. At this moment, a silk mesh had already appeared in the ice woman's hand, covering her head in front of her.

The toad's round body jumped and dodged the ice and snow woman's pouncing cover, landing right next to Chu Jun. Seeing that, Chu Jun reached out his right hand and grabbed it. The ice-snow woman shouted coldly, "Don't touch it with your hand!"

However, it was clearly too late. Just as Chu Jun's hand touched the frog, he suddenly felt a strange cold piercing through his bones. His entire arm immediately lost consciousness, and the icy flower quickly condensed up his arm. Chu Jun couldn't help but exclaim in alarm. He quickly jumped backwards. However, he was unlucky enough to drink cold water. That toad just happened to emerge from between Chu Jun's fingers and jumped in panic. It was so undying that it jumped into Chu Jun's mouth.

Chu Jun instantly felt his mouth and throat freeze. He couldn't help but complain endlessly. Today, he actually died under the hands of a toad. Seeing that the frog had actually jumped into Chu Jun's mouth, the ice-snow woman's expression changed drastically. She whizzed over and grabbed Chu Jun's throat like the wind. She vomited out her Spiritual Energy and something came out of Chu Jun's mouth. The ice and snow woman hurriedly used a net to cover the frog steadily.

At this moment, Chu Jun 's entire arm was frozen, and his face was the same. His mouth maintained an open posture, and the drool flowing out of the corner of his mouth also formed an ice hanger. It looked strange and funny.

The ice-snow woman glanced at Chu Jun . Her cold and beautiful face seemed to reveal a trace of amusement. She turned around and jumped onto the stone, releasing a large white bird that flew away.

Right now, Chu Jun only felt a chill freeze his throat, and it continued to penetrate his heart and lungs, causing him to tremble uncontrollably. Fortunately, the bottom of his left foot was heated up and a warm current rushed up, quickly dispelling the chill.

After a cup of tea, Chu Jun heaved a long sigh of relief. At the critical moment, the Blazing Sun Art had helped a lot. If it was anyone else, they would have already turned into an ice corpse.

Chu Jun leapt onto the boulder. The ice-snow-like woman had long since disappeared. She couldn't help but feel indignant and frustrated. She made a wedding dress for no reason.

Anger returned to anger, but there was nothing he could do. Chu Jun gathered his emotions and came to the edge of the cold lake. He felt a deep chill piercing through his bones.

"Strange, such a low temperature actually didn't freeze!" Chu Jun muttered to himself. He took out the Profound Iron Sword and stuck it into the pond water. He realized that there was nothing unusual about it, but when he picked it up, his expression changed slightly. Because the black iron sword was quickly covered with a layer of frost, the blade of the sword was so vast that it was completely white.

Chu Jun sucked in a breath of cold air, and his curiosity grew even stronger. He suddenly wanted to test how deep this cold pool was, so he rode down to the foot of the mountain and chopped down a dozen slender trees before returning to the top of the mountain.

Chu Jun stabbed into the pool with a wooden stick that was about ten meters long. It was actually going to end very quickly. It looked like it was only eight to nine meters deep.

"Strange, the temperature is so low, yet the pond water doesn't freeze. Could it be that there are some treasures in the pond?" Chu Jun thought to himself. However, after thinking about it for a moment, he felt that it was impossible. Naturally, others that he could think of would also be able to think of it. Perhaps someone had already probed it.

Just as Chu Jun was pulling out the wooden stick, the corner of his eyes seemed to see a sword shadow flying past the water. Chu Jun was shocked. He turned around and found that there was no one else. He couldn't help but frown and secretly said, "Strange. Could it be that my eyes are dazzling?"

Right at this moment, another sword shadow swished past the swaying pond water. Chu Jun's heart stirred as he stared at the pond water with his eyes wide open. After a while, the blurry sword shadow swayed again. Now, Chu Jun could clearly see that it was indeed the shape of a sword.

"Is there a sword stuck in the bottom of the pool?" Chu Jun said to himself.

At this moment, a light flashed. The woman actually came out of Chu Jun 's sea of consciousness and quietly stared at the pond water for a while. She said indifferently, "There is indeed a sword at the bottom of the pond, and it has some origin!"

Chu Jun said happily, "Really?"

The woman's voice was cold and dry, "Do you believe it or not?"

Chu Jun naturally chose to believe it and said eagerly, "Then I'll bring it up!"

The woman said indifferently, "I advise you not to touch it. With your cultivation, you won't be able to control it at all. Be careful of losing your life!"

Chu Jun said doubtfully, "Even you can't control it?"

"I still don't like things of this level!" The woman spoke with disdain.

Hearing this, Chu Jun felt relieved and nodded, "If that means you can control it, then you are not afraid!"

"Don't expect me to help you!" The woman said coldly, as if she was stunned. After saying that, he simply drilled back into Chu Jun 's divine sea.

Chu Jun , on the other hand, was fearless. The Light Shadow Girl had spent so much energy on him, not hesitating to help him cultivate the Five Lightning Righteousness Technique. From this, it could be seen that he had a very important use value for her and would definitely not watch him die helplessly.

Chu Jun stretched out his hand to try out a pool of water. He discovered that although it was extremely cold to the bone, it was still within his tolerance. However, as soon as his hand left the pool, a layer of frost immediately formed on his hand, and a chill immediately rushed up.

"There should be some kind of power that keeps the frost lake from freezing, but the power disappears as soon as it leaves the frost lake, so the water in the pond that just left the frost lake will suddenly turn several times colder!" Chu Jun said thoughtfully.
