Wei Yilong was silent for a while, then gently nodded his head and stepped into the ice chamber, followed closely by Wei Wulong.

"So cold!"

As soon as they entered the ice chamber, the extreme aura inside was so intense that both felt an icy chill even within their Divine Infant.

"Come here, the real challenge begins from here!"

Alita called out gently, stepping toward the altar.

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong followed her instructions and walked over.

"The steps here can only be climbed one by one. Starting from the first step, you'll be subjected to the oppressive force of the Path of Ice. Only by comprehending this path can you continue forward. The higher you go, the greater the pressure. Only after successfully ascending all nine steps can you claim the ultimate seed!"

Alita gazed at the ultimate seed atop the ice pillar on the altar, speaking softly.

"We haven't comprehended the Path of Ice, can we go up?"

Wei Yilong slightly furrowed his brows and spoke in a deep voice.

"For the first six steps, you don't need to worry. I can help you. What I need from you is for the last three steps. When the time comes, I'll let you know what to do!"

Alita smiled knowingly, then looked again at the ultimate seed.

"If it weren't for the new birth of the Heavenly Dao on the Life Origin Star, it wouldn't be this easy to obtain the ultimate seed! In the Void Nether Realm, the trial for the ultimate seed is a thousand times more daunting than here."

She sighed softly, "It's difficult even for those at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm, let alone the Divine Infant Realm. Some powerful figures at the Unity Realm Stage even aspire to use the ultimate seed to open their second Great Dao!"

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong raised their eyebrows upon hearing this, a deep expression emerging in their eyes. Although they were not entirely clear about the Virtual Refinement Realm and the Unity Realm Stage, they understood the significance of the ultimate seed.

The two exchanged a look with a hint of struggle and helplessness in their eyes!

Even knowing its importance, even knowing the other party was a certain enemy, yet for Jiang Chen, they had to assist once!

"Let's go!"

Alita called out again.

Hum!

An icy chill radiated from Alita, enveloping Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong.

They were startled, realizing the aura of the Great Dao in the chill, and their hearts understood.

"Together, move up!"

Alita called out once more, stepping onto the first stair.

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong hurried to follow Alita.

Hum!

As the three stepped onto the first stair, a cold aura emerged from the altar, and the ultimate seed on the ice pillar emitted a chilling glow, causing a thin layer of frost to appear across the whole altar!

Such frost on ice indicated extreme coldness meeting the utmost chill!

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong's faces changed abruptly; the aura of the Great Dao enveloping them trembled violently as waves of cold penetrated their bodies.

Hum!

They reflexively began circulating Spiritual Energy.

"Don't circulate Spiritual Energy!"

Alita shouted coldly.

Hum! Hum! Hum!

The surrounding coldness grew even more intense; visible mist-like aura of the Great Dao formed on the ultimate seed, slowly solidifying into ice needles.

"Stop quickly!"

Seeing the ice needles suspended above the altar, Alita's face changed dramatically, shouting loudly.

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong sensed something was wrong; the ice needles above the altar locked onto them, presenting a deadly threat, prompting them to hurriedly halt their Spiritual Energy circulation.

Whoosh!

A cold wind blew through, causing the ice needles above the altar to disappear with the wind.

Whoosh!

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong exhaled deeply, beads of cold sweat forming on their foreheads, instantly turning to frost.

In such an extreme cold, sweating cold sweat showcased their intense anxiety and fear at the moment!

At the moment when the ice needles locked onto them, they felt as if they were already dead.

That incredibly real sensation allowed the two Divine Infant Realm experts who had lived for over two thousand years to deeply experience the feeling of death!

Death was not overly terrifying for them, but that acute feeling of death without actually dying.

Moreover, although only a fleeting moment, it felt like a century to them.

That feeling was as if you were still alive but felt you were dead, continuously dying!

It was indescribably terrifying!

"You two idiots! Do not circulate Spiritual Power again!"

Alita's expression darkened as she looked at the two, veins bulging on her face, stretching it to pieces!

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong nodded, a trace of doubt arising in their hearts.

Alita's face appeared as smooth as a mirror when expressionless, but once any expression appeared, it twisted and shattered like a mirror, as if her face was carved entirely out of ice!

"Continue forward!"

Alita withdrew her gaze, speaking coldly.

The three steadily ascended once more.

With each rising step, the chill in the ice chamber intensified, with increasingly cold waves infiltrating Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong's bodies.

Upon reaching the fifth stair, a thin layer of frost appeared on their skin.

"Alita, we cannot continue!"

Wei Yilong spoke solemnly.

His blood had solidified, his Dantian and Sea of Consciousness covered in frost. If they continued, he feared he might soon become an ice sculpture!

"Only one more stair to go! Once we reach the sixth stair, there's great hope of obtaining the ultimate seed. Are you really giving up? Don't you want to save the boy up there? Or you plan to let him die?"

Alita's eyes displayed a fierce visage, for she was so close to acquiring the ultimate seed, and she couldn't allow Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong to abandon her!

Wei Yilong cast Alita a deep glance and spoke in a solemn tone, "Didn't you say we need to reach the top of the altar to claim it? Why now only require the sixth stair?"

"I only need you to reach the sixth stair!"

Alita replied coldly, "As long as you ascend with me to the sixth stair, I promise to rescue the boy. If you don't proceed, all previous efforts will be wasted, the boy will die, and you won't end well either!"

Wei Yilong and Wei Wulong hesitated; they understood Jiang Chen might die, having seen his condition, but what did she mean they wouldn't end well?

Was she saying she'd kill them?

"What do you mean by that?"

Wei Yilong stared directly at Alita.

"Seems that boy isn't that important to you after all!"

Alita sneered.

Wei Yilong's eyes narrowed, suddenly realizing Alita's current state, and his face drastically changed: "Why aren't you affected by the cold?"
