30

Not scattering good, he threw parts of the lotus at the mentor of the spirit, even if he lost most of his life force, but what was left is enough for certain situations, it is a pity that the attribute is directly opposite to mine, although I can absorb it, it will take a long time. to digest the fiery energy that permeated his entire being, so that even from these remnants I can get 20-30%, but I was not going to leave her so that it disappears, time does not flow in the mentors of the spirit, he cannot rot or so more to lose their properties, so let him lie down until a suitable opportunity.

Immediately after I dealt with the remnants of the lotus, I took off and began to rotate my subdomain around myself as a protective sphere, because immediately after that hundreds of ice spears flew into me and just large chunks of ice that were saturated with spiritual strength to the eyeballs. that the turtle was very angry at the death of a comrade, because he not only released a huge cloud of ice on me, but also activated his possessions. Except ... if the possession of the fire lotus could still influence me due to the opposite of our qualities and a small gap in strength, then the possession of the ice turtle could not affect me at all after seven thousand years of sparring. with my mother and Bing'er, when we fought one at a time, but both domains influenced me, it is unlikely that ice domains will be effective against me at all, if the power gap is not large, most likely only the snow empress will be capable of this, but this turtle is not her, so his possession did not bind me at all, and I calmly dodged those stumps that remained from the pieces of ice that passed through my protective sphere. Realizing that ranged attacks against me were useless, like his domain, he had no choice but to jump up and try to knock me down, which he would hardly have succeeded, even if spirit beasts over 100,000 years old could levitate. like doulou titles, the flight speed is not great, even the run will be faster, and I just wanted him to try to fight me in the sky, because now his hard outer shell will not be able to protect his less armored stomach, and even to generally unprotected parts of the body it won't be difficult to get there.

Therefore, as soon as he rose to a sufficient height, I expanded the area of ​​effect of the fog by 500 meters, completely blocking his view and emotional feeling, and, without stopping, flew under him and began to strike at his weak points, while the blows were of such force that his multi-ton body did not even think to fall, but flew higher and higher. This could not go on for a long time, because my reserve was already less than 20%, but he was still full of energy, perhaps he had 30-40% of spiritual strength, because despite ten minutes of beating in the air and rather serious injuries on his legs and his stomach was still full of vitality and did not even think to stop holding on to the line.

Releasing my spiritual instinct at full capacity, it turned out that we were already at an altitude of 3.5 kilometers, so I used the only chance I had, because my spiritual strength was running out, and without that, not to mention victory, even the protection of his own life would be questionable, therefore, without delay, he began to refuse, at the same time driving the turtle down, while not ceasing to block his vision and spiritual sense, so that he felt that he was falling, but did not know from what height. Accelerating more and more, I also corrected the turtle's fall away from the eyes of ice and flame with the same directional blows, because the crater from such a fall would definitely not be small.

After 30 seconds, I delivered the last blow, which knocked him down at maximum speed, when the fog was removed, it was a hundred meters to the ground, he would not have time to slow down, but my skill could weaken his fall, so in the end the turtle saw a rapidly approaching forest before hit the ground with my body.

-BOOUUUUUUM, - The sound of his carcass hitting the ground was heard by at least the entire sunset forest, and in addition to the deafening sound of the impact, a crater was also formed, bless you, 250-300 meters in diameter and 40-50 in depth, in the center of which the body of a turtle now lay , and she did not feel very well, was barely alive, the aura was almost zero, not only spiritual strength, but also vital, while her shell was covered with a network of cracks, although from a simple hit to the ground this would hardly have happened here my blows also helped, but now it doesn't matter, because the turtle was dying, and I had no desire to keep it alive, so I decided to ease her torment and end it. Even before her death, she silently drilled me with her eyes, which burned with hatred, anger and misunderstanding, but I did not explain anything and broke her head.

After the body of the turtle went limp, I also transferred its carcass to the spiritual mentor, after which I flew towards the crater of ice and fire, the bodies and bones of the century-old beasts of the spirit do not roll along the road, and it would be an impermissible sin to crumble so. After a minute of slow flight, I returned to the eyes of ice and flame and, finally, I was able to examine it not only with my own eyes, but also with my spiritual flair, after which all the smallest details that were in this place appeared in front of me in my palm, thousands of rare plants albeit an earthly level, but very rare, hundreds of heavenly and dozens of immortal medicines that I recognized at first sight, but it was not in vain that I read different books and scrolls on herbs for decades, but even in this case there were dozens of herbs unknown to me, but and those that I recognized were enough to drive me to ecstasy.

However, a connected call from the very center of a puddle of ice and fire brought me out of a trance, but I was in no hurry to jump in immediately, but first tried to see the inner structure of the source with my spiritual instinct. ... and it didn't work out for me, but the deeper my spiritual instinct penetrated, the more I felt the presence of dragons, I could not advance further than 500 meters, but I began to notice the expansion of the tunnel, so it is likely that the bodies of the kings of ice are there and fiery dragons.

However, I was a little upset that I hadn't caught a single spiritual presence, let alone a mental conduit for conversation that even I can create, let alone dragon kings, albeit fallen ones, so my mood dropped a little, but I. .. I didn't wind myself up, not to mention an instant jump into a puddle of ice and fire, my spiritual and mental strength is exhausted, I don't think that I am now in a suitable state for this, so I went into the icy part of the source and began to restore.

I immediately noticed the changes, here my rate of recovery has tripled even compared to the central part of the Far North, which is, as it were, very much saturated with ice and spiritual strength, but not only by the rate of recovery, but also by my body. became stronger, my spiritual reserve of strength increased, but the level of cultivation remained the same, while my body began to cleanse again, which is amazing for the passive effect of cultivation in a certain place, but no matter how amazing the results were, they just remained just pleasant bonuses, because it is unlikely that such an effect of cleansing and strengthening the body will last for a long time, there is a huge amount of the purest ice and the strength of the dragon around, but as soon as my indicators become equal to them, the effect will disappear, so I did not hope for a permanent similar effect and just silently brought myself to an optimal state.

In one day.

Opening my eyes and stretching my whole body, I finally fully recovered, so that this moment finally came, without unnecessary hesitation and slowdowns, I dived into the source of ice and fire and began to submerge, its approximate depth should not exceed one kilometer. So there should be no problems, during deep meditation, some even forget to breathe and may well be in this state for weeks, I myself experienced this, so hold out for a couple of hours or even days under water without air. But there was already another problem, with each meter in depth the concentration of ice and the power of fire increased, not much, but already at the resting place of the dragon kings, both elements will definitely reach an absolute level, and if I can still withstand ice, although not much, then here the fire is already unlikely, but it's too late to retreat, so throwing doubts out of my head, I continued to dive deeper and deeper.

100,150,200,250,300,350,400,500! Having reached the depth at which I felt the beginning of an increase in the space of the underwater cave, I could no longer move on, even if I could withstand the absolute ice, but the fire completely affected me, even my chest and dorsal scales began to turn black and melt, not to mention the limbs , which, although intact, looked like coals. The only thing that I now protected as much as possible was the eyes, because I tried to see at least something in this place, and only a small membrane did not help them much to protect them. However, when my thoughts began to creep into the fact that I could not find anything here until my breakthrough to the level of one hundred thousand years or even two hundred thousand years ago, an ancient growling voice sounded around, which seemed to me a heavenly chant, for I did not try in vain for the sake of all this. ...
