Had it not been confirmed that the ice-elemental energy within the ice field was not particularly strong, Jiumolu would rather have killed Chen Xuan than allow him to continue forward.
After flying for a few miles, Chen Xuan stopped once more, as obvious signs of a struggle appeared below. He descended onto the ice field and began to walk, discovering the frozen corpses of many cultivators and spirit beasts beneath the surface. One corpse, in particular, was frozen onto the surface of the ice; its shape appeared to be that of a marten or a fox.
Chen Xuan stepped closer, a flash of surprise appearing in his eyes. The headless white marten at his feet, about a meter and a half long and a meter high, was entirely composed of semi-transparent ice crystals. This was not the result of being frozen, but rather its own unique constitution; it was a legendary, special ice-type spirit creature possessing a "jade-ice body."
