Chapter 52: Fifty-two Freeze into ice sculptures
"Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad?"
Although Yun Xiao is just a cultivator at the middle stage of the Meridian Introduction Realm from the Hidden Dragon Continent, do not forget that his soul is that of the former Long Xiao Battle God from the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, whose insights are probably much broader than those of Fu Du.
So, merely at first sight of the Cold Ice Toad, the Soul’s Eye of Yun Xiao recognized it as a rare "Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad," rarely seen even in the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud.
The Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad, according to legend, can only be found in extremely cold and gloomy places, and its most significant characteristic is the extremely formidable Ice Cold Poison. Even a slight touch to its body can instantly freeze a cultivator into a human-shaped ice sculpture, stopping the flow of blood inside the body in an instant.
Yun Xiao also realized why this secret room was so cold. It was due to the chilling air emitted by such an extremely cold creature, the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad, and such chilling air could hardly be endured by anyone other than a Poison Vein Master like Fu Du.
What Yun Xiao could not figure out was how a Spirit Vein Realm cultivator like Fu Du, even being a low-level Meridian Refining Master, could easily capture such a powerful Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad?
"Ah? This ice cabinet also seems to be no ordinary item!"
While Yun Xiao was puzzled, he finally noticed something. It turned out that the translucent ice cabinet housing the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad was also a rare artifact from the Hidden Dragon Continent, inherently possessing the chilling attribute, perfect for storing the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad.
Fu Du shrank his neck, gazing at the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad inside the ice cabinet, a fiery glint flashing through his eyes. Honestly, he didn’t even know the name of the Three-legged Ice Crystal Toad. It was by sheer coincidence that he used this ice cabinet to capture it, but he never dared to refine it for his own use.
A cultivator reaching the Spirit Vein Realm inherently obtains another well-known ability, that is, refining Meridian Spirits. Especially for someone like Fu Du, a Poison Vein Master with high ambition, ordinary items are unworthy of his effort for refinement.
