Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"A woman? How is that possible? I might really be reaching my limit!"

Looking at the hazy figure of a woman in his sight, Chen Tian shook his head, feeling it was too absurd.

One must know that Chen Tian's current location was already close to the bottom of the entire Jade Crystal Cave, and the temperature here was already beyond numerical measurement, an extreme cold that seemed to be able to solidify the world and freeze the air.

Chen Tian's strength far surpassed ordinary Core Formation Realm cultivators, and he could even contend with ordinary Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators. However, even so, he had already reached the dual barrier of physical and mental limits, as if his body would collapse if he took another step forward.

Therefore, Chen Tian believed, how could a woman survive in such a low-temperature environment?

Thinking this, Chen Tian reached out and vigorously rubbed his face, allowing his chaotic thoughts to clear up a bit.

Chen Tian knew that the environment here had reached the limit of his physical body, and if he wanted to continue moving forward, he had to use another method.

"Celestial Body, Manifest!"

Suddenly, Chen Tian shouted loudly. At this moment, his originally frostbitten skin instantly turned golden, and dazzling light radiated in all directions, melting the snowflakes falling from the cave ceiling three inches above Chen Tian's head.

It turned out that Chen Tian's original body alone could no longer support him, so Chen Tian summoned the Celestial Race Avatar and fused it with his original body.

Although each time he used the Celestial Race Avatar, it would consume a lot of Chen Tian's spiritual power, fortunately, the most abundant thing in this cave was spiritual power, so Chen Tian could use the Celestial Race Avatar here without any scruples.

In fact, Chen Tian could have summoned the Celestial Race Avatar from the very beginning, but the reason why he didn't do so just now was firstly because he was afraid of arousing the suspicion of Daoist Wuxu and others, and secondly, Chen Tian also wanted to take the opportunity to test how long his current physical body could last in this severe cold.

Now that both of these goals had been achieved, Chen Tian had no more concerns and summoned the Celestial Race Avatar.

As powerhouses roaming the universe, the Celestial Race's bodies are immune to fire and water, and unafraid of cold and heat. Although the temperature here is extremely low, for the Celestial Race, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, after switching to the Celestial Race Avatar, the immense cold Chen Tian originally felt instantly disappeared, and at the same time, the surrounding environment slowly solidified from nothingness, clearly appearing before Chen Tian's eyes.

"Huh?"

However, just as Chen Tian had clearly seen the surrounding environment, a strange scene suddenly caught his eye, causing Chen Tian to be surprised.

In the chaos just now, Chen Tian vaguely saw the figure of a woman. He originally thought it was a hallucination, but now, after carefully scanning, Chen Tian was surprised to find that all of this was not an illusion, it was real!

There really was a young woman standing in front of Chen Tian!

She was a young girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old, with snow-white skin, a delicate and refined face, and a flowing, swaying water-blue embroidered dress, making her seem like a snow elf in the midst of the snow.

However, this lovable girl was looking at Chen Tian with a frightened expression, her bright black eyes filled with anxiety and unease, and her lotus-root-like white arms were suspended in mid-air, reaching out to Chen Tian.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

However, the surprise in Chen Tian's heart was no less than that of the girl. After seeing the girl's appearance clearly, his whole body bounced back like a spring, and he asked her in a serious tone.

Chen Tian never expected that in this almost extreme cold environment, there would be such a delicate and refined girl.

With Chen Tian's strength far surpassing the Core Formation Realm, it was almost difficult for him to move here, but the girl in front of him was only wearing a cool embroidered dress from summer, and her two white arms were completely exposed, but it had no effect at all.

This situation was really too strange, and Chen Tian couldn't understand it, so he was wary in his heart.

"Immortal, spare me, Immortal, spare me. This humble one only saw that the Immortal was squatting on the ground and about to freeze to death, so I wanted to come and help the Immortal up. There was no disrespect, and I hope the Immortal will see clearly."

Faced with Chen Tian's cold interrogation, the snow-elf-like girl was immediately startled, hugging her chest with both hands, trembling incessantly as she replied.

"Hmm? Immortal? This humble one?"

However, Chen Tian seemed even more puzzled after hearing the woman's words. Frowning, he asked again: "Answer my question first, who exactly are you? Why are you here?"

This time, Chen Tian's tone was much gentler.

After hearing this, the girl glanced timidly at Chen Tian, and finding that he didn't seem angry, she breathed a sigh of relief, got up and first gave Chen Tian a curtsy, and then slowly opened her mouth and said: "Immortal, please listen. This humble one was originally a short-tailed snow rabbit under Mount Xihua. A long time ago, I met my master, and then I followed my master to this cave to cultivate. Later, I don't know what happened, but my master said she had something to leave, so only I was left here, lonely in this dark cave, and I have been here until now, without seeing my master return."

"Your master?" After hearing the woman's explanation, something seemed to flash through Chen Tian's mind, and he suddenly exclaimed: "The master you are talking about, could it be Immortal Jade Crystal?"

"Exactly!" Hearing Chen Tian's words, the originally timid girl suddenly shot a bright light in her eyes, nodding repeatedly, and then she excitedly asked: "Does the Immortal know my master? Do you know where she is now?"

As she said this, the girl's eyes were full of hope, as if she was extremely looking forward to Chen Tian's reply.

However, Chen Tian was suddenly stunned after hearing this.

To be honest, he didn't expect things to take such a magical turn. One must know that he only learned about some things about Jade Crystal Cave from Wu Chun.

He knew that Jade Crystal Cave was initially the seclusion place of an ancient cultivator named Immortal Jade Crystal. Later, she successfully cultivated and ascended to the Ancient Immortal Realm, so the ancestors of the Wuhua Sect established their sect near this Jade Crystal Cave.

But Chen Tian never expected that the Immortal Jade Crystal actually had a demon beast as a pet, and not only did it not die, but it had already cultivated into human form.

This discovery immediately made Chen Tian feel extremely surprised!
