Chapter 597 Ice Statue
After a thrilling battle, the three finally worked together to defeat the powerful ice bear. The ferocious beast fell in a pool of blood, and its huge body was no longer moving.
Deep in the ice bear's cave, Lin Ze walked forward cautiously with a torch in hand. The walls around him were covered with ice and snow, exuding a hint of coldness. He took every step very lightly, fearing that he would awaken the danger that might be hidden in the dark.
Suddenly, Lin Ze's eyes were attracted by a jade pendant that was emitting a cold light. Although the light was weak, it was very conspicuous in the dark cave. Lin Ze's heart moved and he quickly approached the jade pendant.
The jade pendant looked ancient and mysterious, with some strange symbols and patterns engraved on it, as if it contained endless power. Lin Ze stared at the jade pendant and felt his heartbeat speed up.
"Is this the third holy object I've been looking for?" Lin Ze muttered to himself. He stretched out his shaking hands and picked up the jade pendant. The moment his fingers touched the jade pendant, a chill ran down his arm and spread throughout his body, causing him to shiver.
However, this chill did not make Lin Ze retreat, but made him more excited. He held the jade pendant tightly, feeling the mysterious power surging in his hands.
"Great! We finally found it!" Lin Ze said excitedly. His voice echoed in the cave, carrying a hint of irrepressible joy.
With these three holy objects, Lin Ze felt a strong hope in his heart. He believed that as long as he could unravel the secrets hidden in these three holy objects, he could find a way to lift the terrible curse and save the entire town.
With this hope in mind, Lin Ze hurriedly left the ice bear's cave, his steps looking somewhat anxious. His heart was full of anticipation, as if he had seen the day when the town would regain its vitality.
As soon as Lin Ze walked out of the cave, he heard a low roar.
An ice bear that was bigger and more ferocious than the previous one jumped out from the snow pile next to it, with flames of anger burning in its eyes. It was obviously the ice bear's companion.
Lin Ze's heart suddenly tightened, as if it was being grabbed by an invisible hand. Before he could react, the huge ice bear pounced on him like a moving iceberg with the force of thunder!
Lin Ze's body reacted instinctively. He dodged the ice bear's attack by moving sideways like lightning. At the same time, his right hand drew out the sword from his waist like a gust of wind. With a flash of cold light, the blade shone with a chilling light in the sun.
However, at this critical moment, Lin Ze suddenly remembered the jade pendant in his hand. He had no time to think about it, and quickly raised the jade pendant high to block in front of himself.
Something unexpected happened - the ferocious ice bear, as if it had been cast under a spell, suddenly stopped attacking the moment it saw the jade pendant! Its originally ferocious eyes now revealed a hint of awe, as if the jade pendant had some kind of irresistible magic power over it.
Seeing this, although Lin Ze was surprised, he immediately seized the opportunity to carefully observe the ice bear. He was surprised to find that there was a small object hanging on the thick neck of the ice bear, and the pattern on this small object was exactly the same as the pattern on the jade pendant in his hand!
At this moment, the other two also rushed to the scene panting. Lin Ze quickly told them about the jade pendant. The three looked at each other, thinking that there must be a huge secret hidden in it.
After a brief discussion, they decided not to provoke the ice bear for the time being, but to quietly follow it to see where it would take them. Perhaps, in this mysterious place, they could find new clues to unlock the secrets of the holy objects.
Ice Bear walked slowly in the snow, and the three carefully kept their distance. Ice Bear didn't seem to care about them behind him, and walked straight towards an ancient ice cave.
Entering the ice cave, there was a mysterious atmosphere. Ice Bear stopped in front of a huge ice sculpture. The pattern on the ice sculpture was exactly the same as that on the jade pendant and small objects.
Suddenly, the motionless ice sculpture began to flicker with a faint light, as if it were under a spell. As the light gradually grew stronger, the lines and textures on the ice sculpture became more and more clearly visible, as if a mysterious force was awakening it.
As the three of them were watching this strange sight in amazement, they heard a slight friction sound, and the ice sculpture seemed to come alive and slowly moved. As the ice sculpture moved, a huge stone door slowly opened, and behind the door was a dark space, faintly revealing a mysterious atmosphere.
The three of them looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy, but they finally plucked up their courage and carefully followed the stone door as it opened and walked inside.
As soon as they entered the door, they were stunned by the scene in front of them. This was a spacious and bright space. The walls and the ground were made of smooth ice, reflecting a faint light, making the whole space look a little cold and mysterious. Around this space, there were all kinds of strange objects, some of which looked like ancient weapons, some like some kind of mysterious runes, and some strangely shaped stones and crystals that made people confused.
In the center of this space, there was an ancient book emitting blue light. The book looked very old, the pages had turned yellow, and the words on it were a little blurry, but the blue light was extremely bright, as if attracting them to explore the secrets inside.
As they slowly approached the ancient book, suddenly, a low roar came from behind them. The three of them were startled and turned around to see a huge ice bear standing behind them, blocking their way. The ice bear was huge, covered with a thick layer of ice, and its eyes flashed with cold light, revealing a sense of majesty and hostility.
Seeing this, Lin Ze quickly raised the jade pendant in his hand, and the jade pendant emitted a faint light in his hand. After seeing the jade pendant, Bing Xiong seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then slowly made way, giving way to the ancient book.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief and continued to walk carefully to the ancient book. They gently turned the pages of the ancient book and found that although the text on it was ancient and difficult to understand, after careful identification, they could still roughly understand its meaning.
It turns out that this ancient book records the origins and secrets of three holy objects. These three holy objects are an ice sword, an ice shield and an ice bead, all of which are relics of the ancient ice god. According to legend, as long as these three holy objects are collected, the ice god can be awakened and the curse on the town can be lifted.
The Ice Bear Clan is the messenger who guards these three holy objects. They have lived on this ice field for generations, guarding the holy objects and waiting for the destined person to come and collect them. Now, seeing that Lin Ze and others have successfully collected the three holy objects, the Ice Bears led them to this place to let them know these secrets.
The three were very excited, they knew that they were one step closer to saving the town.
