Chapter 400 - Hongyue

Yun Lintian put his thought aside and extinguished the fire on the ice wolf's remains before searching for its core. When he took a blue crystal bead out, he was immediately amazed by the intense vitality within it. 

Unlike those Abyssal Profound Beast Cores Yun Lintian had seen before, this one was brimming with pure vitality. Evidently, the ice wolf had grown stronger by absorbing powerful vitality directly… What kind of this treasure could produce this level of vitality? 

Yun Lintian's eyes flashed with hope. Wasn't he was looking for the treasure with high vitality for all this time? 

At this moment, the snowstorm gradually subsided, and the endless snowfield appeared in Yun Lintian's vision again. He then took a look at the wound on his left shoulder. Seeing it had already stopped bleeding, he made a simple bandage and prepared to set off.

As Yun Lintian turned around, he almost yelped out as he discovered a majestic building appeared out of nowhere before him. 

This building was similar to a Chinese pagoda with a sense of untouchability. Its outer appearance was entirely made by a high-quality purple marble mixing with ancient woods. On the front gate, there was a considerable moon symbol engraved on it, giving off an unreachable aura like the moon in the sky.

Yun Lintian's brows involuntarily creased together. He was sure there wasn't such a thing when he first arrived here, and he didn't travel that far during the earlier battle... Where did it come from?

Swoosh!

While Yun Lintian was pondering, a purple figure suddenly appeared a few meters on his right side. When he looked closely, he immediately recognized her. She was no other than Lin Xinyao.

"Yun Lintian?" Lin Xinyao said in surprise. If Yun Lintian could see through her veil, he would notice the confusion on her face.

Before Yun Lintian could respond, another figure appeared in the distance, making Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao look over.

"Yun Lintian?" Wang Jue was startled for a moment when he saw Yun Lintian standing there. In the next moment, he quickly raised his guard, preparing to enter the battle. 

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

At this moment, several figures began to appear one after another. Soon, more than ninety people were surrounding the pagoda with confusion written all over their faces. Some of them had injuries on their bodies, but they weren't serious.

Yang Mengli and Hua Wanru were also among them. Their first reactions were to call Yun Lintian, but they heard his voice rang out in their minds. "Just pretend you don't know me."

Yang Mengli immediately understood. She glanced at Wang Jue and Li Na in the distance and kept silent while explaining the situation to Hua Wanru.

A moment later, both of them gathered together with the Frozen Moon Palace's disciples and Lin Xinyao, calmly watching the majestic pagoda in front of them.

Yun Lintian looked at the people around and found out the number wasn't correct. If everyone had been teleported to this place, where were those fifty odds people missing to?

An idea suddenly appeared in Yun Lintian's mind. He quickly asked Lin Xinyao a question through a sound transmission. "Did you encounter a profound beast before appearing here?"

"Yes… It's a powerful one." Lin Xinyao replied. 

As she said this, they exchanged a glance and immediately understood that they had the same experience before coming here.

To confirm his conjecture, Yun Lintian further asked Yang Mengli and Hua Wanru. He then found out they had also encountered powerful profound beasts before. After they killed them, they already found themselves in this place.

"Has this situation ever happened before?" Yun Lintian asked.

"No. I had never heard anything like this." Lin Xinyao answered. A touch of doubt appeared in her eyes as she stared at the pagoda before her. 

Yun Lintian frowned slightly. According to Han Bingling's words, this should be the pagoda she had mentioned. It had never opened before. Why did everyone appear here then?

Creak!

While everyone was confused by the bizarre situation, the pagoda's gate gradually opened, and there was a petite figure appeared behind it.

This figure was a young maiden in her thirteen. Her face was slightly rounded, filling with baby fat. Her strange red eyes were stunning like a star in the sky. A cute, exquisite nose pointed upwards and watery tender lips with a hint of mischief. Her red hair was tied into a twin tail, hanging down to her waist, making her look innocent.

She wore a loose red imperial robe that covered her entire arms, and its hem was dragging along the floor as she walked forward.

Her appearance instantly silenced everyone. Doubt, confusion, vigilance, everything appeared on their face as they stared at the girl. 

The girl briefly scanned the crowd with a playful smile on her lips. 

For some reason, Yun Lintian felt this girl's gaze had paused on him longer than anybody, but he wasn't sure about it as she swept her gaze too fast.

After looking at everyone, the girl pursed her lips and said. "Welcome to the Frozen Moon Mythical Realm. My name is Hongyue, the creator of this place." Her voice was clear, mixing with a hint of childishness.

Except for Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao, everyone glanced at each other in shock upon hearing this… The mythical realm was created by this little girl? 

Hongyue didn't seem to care about their reactions. She continued. "Congratulations on passing the first stage. To reward all of you, I will let you rest for five minutes before we proceed to the next stage. Please enjoy."

In the next moment, she smiled mischievously and said. "This may be your last moment in this world. If you have something to say or confess to your loved one, please do it now. Don't blame me for not reminding you later~."

As her voice fell, the expression of everyone changed drastically. What did she mean by the last moment in this world? And what were the first stage and second stage she talked about?
