Gong Qi broke open the ice that sealed him and tried to pursue, but he only managed to see a glimmer of space rift.

Palace Seven's head is now a mess.

Why would her fourth older sister appear in the assessment of Tianze Immortal Mansion?

Who is this sudden hand?

What was his purpose in taking Palace Four?

Countless doubts flooded Gong Qi's mind simultaneously, and she let out a heavy sigh.

She hasn't reached that level of cultivation, so there are many things she can't know.

Just like now, Palace Four was taken away in front of her, and Palace Seven was powerless. She could only watch with her eyes open.

She can only bless Palace Four in her heart and hope she has better luck.

Palace Four was taken away, and the surrounding flames weakened considerably.

Gong Qi successfully found the origin of the different fire and controlled it.

The fire on the inextinguishable volcano slowly died down.

However, Gong Qi still had many doubts in his heart.

When did Palace Four enter the Heavenly Tranquility Immortal Mansion? And why has he stayed here for so long?

Just as Gong Qi felt, Gong Si's aura hadn't weakened at all, it was even several times stronger than before.

An immortal who could take her away with a single palm strike must surely be a mixed element Daluo Golden Immortal from one side.

Does the existence of Palace Four have any particular significance on this immortal volcano?

Before Gong Qi could find even a sliver of an answer, she was sent to the third assessment location.

The flames on the mountain gradually dissipated, and the earth seemed to grow ice.

A violent tremor shook the ground, causing it to sink. A massive amount of cold air surged up and solidified into thick layers of frost on the surface.

Visibly, ice peaks rise from the ground.

The ground split open like a giant chasm, and after a deafening roar, a deep abyss formed.

Palace Seven, who was within it, remained completely unaffected.

Or perhaps she is now excluded from the new assessment location.

After an unknown amount of time, the surroundings finally fell silent.

Gong Qi only truly felt a chill when she .

But she was someone who had been mixed among the icy waters of the North, a chill that would be unbearable to others, yet to Gong Qi it was as ordinary as breathing.

Suddenly, the world before her transformed. Her attention was drawn to the bottomless glacial abyss that lay ahead.

On both sides, ice covered the ground. On the cliff face, frost-covered vines grew densely.

The distance to the abyss isn't too far, just a few kilometers wide.

But Gong Qi was afraid to rashly try condensing the air and flying over.

Down below, I could only feel the chilling air surging like a tide, and an inky blackness stretching endlessly into unknown danger.

Instinct told Gong Qi, the icy abyss before him was the third checkpoint.

This time, Shiwan and Tongtian Lùteng both came out.

"Are we going down?" Tengtian, the vine that grew to the heavens, dangled precariously from the edge of a cliff, its head dipping downwards.

Gong Qi wanted to lift her up, "Don't get close, be careful there are monsters attacking below."

"It's nothing," said the green vine confidently. "I'll definitely be the first to notice when they get closer."

After she finished speaking, her expression grew serious. "However, there are many dangers on both sides of the cliffs."

Shi Wan asked in a soft voice, "Are we going to the bottom of the cliff?"

Gong Qi lowered her eyes, her expression also solemn. "In this ice field, only the Cold Ice Abyss can pose a threat to me. I'm afraid the real test is below."

Shi Wan bravely volunteered, "I am nimble and could scout ahead."

She gazed at Gong Qi with hopeful eyes.

Gong Qi met her gaze, and after a moment said, "Alright!"

A moment later, the joy on Shi Wan's face appeared.

She transformed into her true form, hovering above the cliff as a manifestation of the Ten Thousand Years Ice Soul Flower.

There are no flight restrictions on this cliff.

Shi Wan's true form was obscured by a cold aura, slowly sinking downward.

After a moment, the sky-reaching green vine suddenly tilted its head and asked, “Don’t you want to use it?”

Although the reason is unknown, after leaving the palace of the emperor of the Hanmu Six-winged Silver Wolf Clan, Gong Qi's attitude towards Shi Wan became somewhat off.

Tongtian Green Vine pondered for a long time before she thought of using the two words "pity" to describe it.

This pity mixed with a touch of awkwardness.

But this kind of attitude, Gong Qi has never shown towards them.

Even if Gong Qi doesn't like the merfolk tribe, Ting Xi, he would never have such a strange attitude.

After thinking for a moment, the Heavenly Green Vine said: “You don’t trust her!”

Her tone was full of certainty.

This is also a judgment made by Tongtian Green Vine and Palace Seven after spending thousands of years together.

Gong Qi warned Tongtian Green Vine with a glance, and explained more: "Shiwan always wants to show off, I always refuse, it's easy to hurt her confidence."

"Don't overthink it, I'm just treating each fairy plant according to its nature. Different personalities require different approaches."

This sounds like the Heavenly Green Vine is eating its own jealousy.

Now the Heavenly Green Vine is a fully mature vine.

But the one hiding in the shadows, Shi Wan, did not know how much to believe.

Although Shiwan is timid, she is not stupid.

From the moment she suggested going to Tianze Immortal Mansion with Gong Qi, and refused to stay behind, Gong Qi's attitude towards her seemed different.

The same indulgence, but in words and deeds, there was always something different.

Shi Wan also felt puzzled in her heart, thinking that Gong Qi was alienated from her because she found her useless.

The more this was the case, the more Shiwan wanted to show off in order to gain approval from Gongqi.

Now, listening to Gu Qi and Tongtian Green Vine's conversation, it doesn't seem quite right?

Could it be that Gong Qi really didn't suspect her? Is it just because of her personality?

However, when you think about it carefully, Palace Seven's way of treating her hasn't really changed much.

Thus thinking, Shi Wan concealed her aura and once again quietly descended the cliff.

Even the Tenglong Vine wasn't idle. Its main body appeared, slithering down the cliff face.

After half an incense stick of time, Shi Wan came up, her face not looking good: "There are many aggressive demonic plants and beasts on both sides of the cliff, it's overwhelming to defend against, I almost fell victim to them."

She is average in terms of combat ability, but she's quite good at running away.

Around the same time, Tengtian Green Vine also climbed onto the precipice, looking very serious. "On both sides of the Abyss of Frozen Ice, there are ferocious monsters and countless caves hiding even more monstrous beasts," he said. "If you want to go down... it will be a death sentence."

This is the conclusion drawn by Tongtian Green Vine based on Qiumo Xiu's cultivation.

Gong Qi sank into thought for a moment before saying, “Perhaps this is the test of the third level?”

Now that we've come this far, there's no turning back.

Gong Qi withdrew his Ten Wan swords and the Sky-Piercing Green Vine, hovering in midair before rapidly descending.

Yet, the moment she appeared, her presence instantly jolted the icy plants on both sides of the frigid abyss. Countless monster plants and beasts immediately launched an attack against her.

A terrifying force surged from all directions, and Gong Qi subconsciously drew out his defensive magic artifact.

Her defensive artifacts were all taken from the private treasury of the Dihuang Palace, each one being a world-renowned fairy treasure.

Even if there were a Hunyuan Daluo Jinxian present, they wouldn't be able to do anything to Palace Seven for a while.

These kind of fairy treasures have a special characteristic, they especially consume fairy qi.
