Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 2455: Ice Phoenix (1)

As Yun Lintian descended into the abyss of Phoenix Lake, the cold intensified with every passing foot. It was a relentless, all-consuming cold, unlike anything he had ever experienced. It gnawed at his defenses, seeped into his bones, and threatened to extinguish the very flame of his life.

He had already plunged more than ten thousand feet, the pressure crushing, the darkness absolute. The world above, with its dim light and swirling snow, seemed like a distant memory. Here, in the depths of the lake, there was only the oppressive cold, the suffocating silence, and the ever-present threat of oblivion.

Yun Lintian gritted his teeth, his resolve unwavering. He channeled the power of his bloodlines, the Azure Dragon and the Black Turtle, their combined strength forming a protective barrier against the encroaching cold.

The Azure Dragon's life-giving energy battled against the freezing temperatures, while the Black Turtle's resilience fortified his defenses, preventing his body from succumbing to the icy grip of the lake.

He invoked the power of the Primordial Sun God, his body radiating a faint golden glow, a tiny sun in the heart of the frozen abyss. The warmth spread through his limbs, offering a brief respite from the biting cold, a flicker of defiance against the overwhelming darkness.

But even with all his power, Yun Lintian found himself struggling. The cold was relentless, its intensity growing with every passing moment. He felt his movements slowing, his senses dulling, his consciousness wavering.

He reached into his soul, drawing upon the power of the Moon relic, its gentle light radiating outwards, a beacon of hope in the encroaching darkness. The relic hummed with energy, converting the chaotic energy of the lake into a usable form, a faint warmth that spread through his body, sustaining him, keeping his life force flickering.

He continued his descent, his body a vessel of defiance against the overwhelming forces of the lake. He was a lone warrior, a solitary seeker, venturing into the heart of the frozen abyss, his spirit undimmed, his determination unyielding.

Fifteen thousand feet...

The pressure intensified, the cold gnawing at his very essence. Yun Lintian felt his consciousness slipping, his vision blurring, his body nearing its limits.

He gritted his teeth, refusing to succumb. He channeled every ounce of his strength, every drop of his divine energy, into maintaining his defenses, keeping the cold at bay.

Twenty thousand feet...

The bottom of the lake was within reach, a faint glow emanating from the depths, a beacon of hope in the overwhelming darkness. Yun Lintian's heart pounded with anticipation, his spirit soaring with renewed vigor.

He pushed through the final layer of icy water, his body screaming in protest, his senses overloaded by the sheer intensity of the cold. But he persevered, his will unbreakable, his spirit unyielding.

Finally, his feet touched solid ground. He had reached the bottom of Phoenix Lake.

He stood there for a moment, his body trembling, his breath ragged, his senses reeling. But he had made it. He had overcome the impossible, defied the limits of his mortal form, and reached the heart of the frozen abyss.

He looked around, his Eyes of Heaven piercing through the darkness, revealing a breathtaking sight.

A massive ice palace stood before him, its walls carved with intricate patterns, its towers reaching towards the surface like frozen stalactites. The palace radiated a soft, ethereal glow, a beacon of warmth and light in the depths of the frozen lake.

Yun Lintian braced himself up and stepped towards the majestic ice palace, its entrance beckoning him like an open maw.

As he crossed the threshold, a wave of even more intense cold washed over him, a stark contrast to the frigid waters of the lake. It was as if the very essence of ice had coalesced within these walls, creating a realm of absolute frigidity.

Yun Lintian shivered, his breath catching in his throat. Even with the combined powers of his bloodlines and the Sun and Moon relics, he could barely withstand this chilling assault. He felt his divine energy struggling to circulate, his movements growing sluggish, his senses

dimming.

He ventured deeper into the palace, his footsteps echoing through the vast, empty halls, the only sound in this silent, frozen world.

The interior of the palace was a breathtaking spectacle of ice and light. The walls were adorned with intricate carvings, depicting scenes of phoenixes soaring through the skies, their feathers shimmering with a thousand colors. Ice crystals, like glittering jewels, adorned every surface, reflecting the faint light that filtered through the frozen walls, creating a mesmerizing display of colors and shadows.

Yun Lintian traversed the labyrinthine corridors, his senses alert, his heart pounding with anticipation. He could feel the presence of the Ice Phoenix growing stronger with every step, her essence permeating the very air he breathed, her spirit guiding him towards her resting place.

Finally, he reached the heart of the palace, a vast chamber that dwarfed all the others. In the center of the chamber, encased in a shimmering cocoon of ice, lay a figure of ethereal beauty.

It was the Ice Phoenix.

She lay peacefully atop a dais of ice, a stunning woman clad in a flowing robe of the purest blue. Her hair, the color of a winter sky just before dawn, cascaded around her like a frozen waterfall, contrasting starkly with the pale skin of her delicate face.

She was breathtakingly beautiful, an ethereal vision of icy perfection. But it was her stillness that alarmed Yun Lintian. He could sense the faintest flicker of life within her, a fragile flame struggling against the overwhelming cold that permeated the chamber.

Her breathing was shallow, almost imperceptible, her vitality weak, as if she teetered on the precipice between life and death.

Yun Lintian approached cautiously, his footsteps muffled by the thick carpet of frost that covered the floor. He could feel the intense cold radiating from her, a chilling aura that threatened to extinguish his own life force. He channeled his divine energy, reinforcing his defenses, protecting himself from the frigid assault.

As he drew closer, he could see the subtle rise and fall of her chest, the gentle flutter of her eyelids. She was alive, but barely. He sensed that if she were to awaken now, the shock could shatter her fragile hold on life, extinguishing the last embers of her existence.

Yun Lintian knew he had to act quickly. He had to find a way to stabilize her condition, to nourish her weakened spirit, to rekindle the flame of life that flickered within her...
