Chapter 1101: Chapter 1101
At this moment, He Qianyao, standing nearby, also noticed this trembling purple egg, and was taken aback with astonishment.
She obviously sensed that all the cold Qi seemed to be emanating from this thing. It was unimaginable that a small beast egg could release so much, such chilling cold Qi, clearly indicating it was no ordinary existence.
He Qianyao asked directly, her face full of questions.
Upon hearing Ding Fan's words, He Qianyao couldn't help but be startled. Although she had never seen this thing, she had definitely heard of the renowned Frost Toad.
Ordinary cultivators might not have heard of it, but He Qianyao was not an ordinary person. Her father was the sect leader of the Dayang Sect, a status that set her apart. She had heard about the Frost Toad from her father, who mentioned it was an exceptionally formidable Yuan Beast. Ordinary cultivators were no match for this Yuan Beast. She recalled her father saying that some sect disciples with decent cultivation, possibly at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, existed within the sect.
Such cultivation levels were already quite formidable, able to sweep through most cultivators. But when they encountered a juvenile Frost Toad, they initially tried to capture it, but unexpectedly, all the Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators died under the cold Qi of the Frost Toad.
This clearly showed how powerful the Frost Toad was! To think it was only a juvenile Frost Toad!
If it were an adult Frost Toad, what kind of cultivator could handle it? He Qianyao didn't dare to imagine. She knew that later on, her father, upon learning about this, personally led many elders to find the Frost Toad and attempt to capture it, but after six months, he returned empty-handed.
Six months! It's important to know how valuable time is to a cultivator. Six months is enough for most cultivators to advance significantly, let alone a master like her father.
But for that Frost Toad, her father willingly spent over six months, showing just how precious the Frost Toad was.
She still remembered the look of regret on her father's face when he returned.
The extent of the Frost Toad's value was now clear to her.
Then, Ding Fan slowly walked towards the Frost Toad's egg. Seeing this, He Qianyao couldn't help but follow suit. Although she knew the Frost Toad was definitely a treasure, she had no ulterior motive, since the temperature in this darkroom had already fallen to an extreme low, making it almost impossible for her to move.
Now, to He Qianyao, the treasure was valuable, but if she and Ding Fan didn't find a way out soon, they would die here. She felt it was already a one-in-a-million chance that they managed to get here alive.
"Once I subdue the Frost Toad, we can leave."
Ding Fan said to He Qianyao, with a hint of excitement. After all, the most important thing wasn't the treasure right now but finding a way to leave quickly, as the temperature here wasn't something ordinary cultivators could withstand.
However, when Ding Fan saw the Frost Toad's beast egg, he already thought of a solution. He knew that the cold Qi here was caused by this Frost Toad, and once he subdued the little creature, he wouldn't have to fear the intense cold here.
Upon hearing Ding Fan's words, He Qianyao also reacted. If this little creature stopped releasing cold Qi, it wouldn't be so cold here, and there would be nothing too dangerous left.
He Qianyao said to Ding Fan with concern.
Then Ding Fan nodded and slowly continued to approach the currently violently trembling Frost Toad beast egg.
He Qianyao carefully followed Ding Fan from behind, but after a few steps, she couldn't move forward. The distance to the Frost Toad was about one meter, and the cold Qi here was too abnormal, impossible for ordinary cultivators to resist.
Ding Fan also sensed this and released all his True Qi to slowly and painfully approach the Frost Toad's egg, although his pace was slow, he didn't stop moving.
Soon enough, Ding Fan reached the Frost Toad's beast egg.
Seeing this, He Qianyao was once again utterly shocked at Ding Fan!
To know that the cold Qi released by the Frostfang Beast was something ordinary cultivators could not resist— to He Qianyao, it felt like an iceberg blocking her path, making progress impossible.
Yet Ding Fan reached the front of the Frost Toad's beast egg, which was indeed challenging!
When He Qianyao saw Ding Fan's next action, she was again astonished. Ding Fan was releasing True Qi into the Frost Toad's beast egg.
In an instant, the beast egg vibrated violently, as if the entire cave started shaking.
If Ding Fan were outside, he would find that the Yuan Beasts outside the cave had already become restless and aggressive, with some even starting to attack each other.
Clearly, the Yuan Beasts felt the change happening with the Frost Toad.
At the moment, Ding Fan wasn't feeling well either. While using True Qi to protect himself from extreme cold Qi's erosion, he also used True Qi to hasten the Frost Toad's emergence, aiming to build a closer bond with the yet-to-be-hatched Frost Toad.
Time passed little by little, and at this moment, the beast egg of the Frost Toad trembled more and more violently. At this moment, the True Qi within Ding Fan was almost exhausted, and he was already at the end of his strength.
However, there was no way out, he had to persevere. Seeing that success was about to dawn before him, how could he give up now!
With Ding Fan's painful perseverance, the beast egg of the Frost Toad finally cracked slightly, and soon the entire eggshell broke apart piece by piece.
In no time, a small, crystal-like creature resembling a frog slowly crawled out. At this moment, Ding Fan found the little creature somewhat adorable, hardly seeing any trace of its future fierce power.
At the instant the small Frost Toad was born, a sudden hurricane blew within the entire cave. It spread from the hidden chamber along the passage outside.
At that moment, a large cloud of Cold Qi gushed out from the cave entrance, causing many Yuan Beasts to panic, and they began to flee chaotically. Around the cave, an unexpected change occurred, as strands of Cold Qi emerged from the grass, quickly icing over the vegetation, and soon, the surrounding area was transformed into a winter landscape.
It was important to note that the climate in the Cultivation World at this time was full of spring's presence, yet in an instant, the surroundings turned into a complete winter scene, which would certainly astonish anyone witnessing it.
From a distance, one could even observe strands of Cold Qi ascending from the mountain range.
Meanwhile, in a pavilion by the lake within the Dayang Sect, a meditating middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes wide, intensely gazing towards the direction of the mountain behind.
"Indeed, something extraordinary has emerged…"
The middle-aged man was astonished as he looked towards the mountain behind, murmuring to himself. Then suddenly, as if he remembered something, he quickly took out a Jade Plate, examined it closely, and felt relieved when he saw there was nothing amiss with it.
At this moment, an elder hurriedly entered the room of the middle-aged man, speaking with some urgency:
"Sect Master, there is something abnormal at the mountain behind. I'm not sure if the young lady is safe. Perhaps I should go check it out."
Upon hearing the elder's words, the middle-aged man shook his head lightly and said:
"There's no need, Elder Zhong. My daughter is not in danger at this moment. She insisted on this training experience, and unless she faces some setbacks, she will not grow."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the elder nodded with some worry and then glanced towards Beihou Mountain, asking:
"Sect Master, what exactly happened at Beihou Mountain?"
The middle-aged man furrowed his brow at the question, his face showing some solemnity as he replied:
"I suspect that some powerful Yuan Beasts are about to emerge. I wonder if Qian Yao will be able to seize this opportunity…"
The elder, hearing the middle-aged man's comment, suggested:
"Perhaps we should send someone to check it out. There might still be an opportunity to gain some advantage?"
"No need, it's already too late…"
The middle-aged man sighed with some regret and said.
Meanwhile, near Ding Fan's quarters in Beihou Mountain, an elder looked towards Beihou Mountain with furrowed brows, shocked by the continuous rise of Cold Qi from the mountain range.
He never expected to encounter such phenomena again. The last time he witnessed such an abnormal event, an incredibly powerful Yuan Beast had emerged. Unfortunately, he had arrived just a bit too late and only saw two god-like cultivators engaged in fierce combat over that Yuan Beast.
Clearly aware he was late then, he realized contending was futile now.
To his surprise, he witnessed such phenomena again. However, regrettably, he failed to seize the opportunity. He had been observing Beihou Mountain recently, noticed some anomalies, and was certain a major event was about to occur, but he never located its presence.
And once again, the opportunity slipped through his fingers.
"Seems like the heavens don't intend for me to gain this opportunity…"
The elder sighed, and in a flash, his body became translucent and vanished suddenly.
Evidently, this was not something an ordinary cultivator could achieve. The source of thɪs content is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝙣𝙚𝙩
If Ding Fan were present, he would realize that this elder was the strange senior who visited his room last time.
If Ding Fan saw the elder's actions just now, he would be extremely shocked, confirming his suspicion that this shabbily dressed elder was indeed not an ordinary person!
