Chapter 689: Alarming Ice Coffin

Both Han Chenfei and the Han Clan sisters did not dare to move rashly. Facing a huge monster like that, it only needed to exert a little power to reduce all three of them into a pile of mincemeat.

Xiang Shaoyun's scalp felt numb as he asked inwardly,

What is this? It's so big!

He couldn't resist using his Nether Soul Domain to sense ahead, and he found that the massive figure was actually the shell of a turtle. The shell was as large as a mountain. How many years had this old turtle lived?

Fortunately, the turtle seemed to be asleep at the moment. Otherwise, things wouldn't remain so peaceful for them. For a moment, all four of them were at a loss as to what to do. The energy of extreme cold was something they had to obtain, but it did not seem worth giving up their lives for.

Han Chenfei spoke to Xiang Shaoyun through voice transmission, "Let's return. This can very well be a legendary black tortoise. We can't anger it, or all of us will die."

The black tortoises were one of the four great demonic beast clans, alongside the azure dragons, the white tigers, and the vermilion birds(phoenixes). Of course, a black tortoise's combat prowess might not be comparable to one of the other three races, but its defensive prowess was absolutely great. A demonic beast like it was not something they could contend with.

"Is the energy of extreme cold really helpful for them?" Xiang Shaoyun asked.

"It's useful, and it's even useful for me! But I treasure my life. No matter how useful it can be, we can only give up on it," Han Chenfei replied.

She then commanded the sisters to leave.

"You leave first. I'll go take a look and see if I can get some energy of extreme cold for you," said Xiang Shaoyun after some hesitation, a resolute look on his face.

Since the target was already before him, he did not want to give up just like that. After all, he still had some trump cards that might be able to keep him concealed from the black tortoise and steal the energy of extreme cold.

"Have you gone crazy?" Han Chenfei grew agitated.

It was at this moment that there was a slight movement coming from the black tortoise. Their hearts nearly popped out of their throats in their nervousness.

"Listen to me, just leave. I will be able to get away," said Xiang Shaoyun before vanishing before them.

Han Chenfei blanked out as she exclaimed inwardly,

Where did he go?

As the young palace master of the Glacier Palace, she had a rather rich experience during her time at the Northern Border. She knew about a lot of secret techniques, but she had never seen a technique to vanish right before someone's eyes like what Xiang Shaoyun had just done.

Is it the trait of invisibility exclusive to the Imperial Nether Clan? But he is clearly human! Or perhaps he has a unique armor of invisibility or some illusory technique?

Han Chenfei's thoughts were in a mess.

Fortunately, she was able to recover quickly, and she led the sisters back to the surface. As for Xiang Shaoyun, he remained where he was. He waited until they left before he started planning his next step.

With his senses, he tried to sense the exact location of the energy of extreme cold. However, the black tortoise's large body had blocked part of his senses. Helpless, he could only dive deeper and go around the black tortoise. So lo
