266: The head of the immortal corpse moves strangely!
"You recognize me?"
After Frost recovered, a hint of surprise appeared on her face.
She had just woken up, and some thoughts had not yet been sorted out in her mind. But it was clear from her previous words that although she had slept here for countless years, she knew exactly how long she had been asleep.
Given Frost's power, she understood that this was no longer the world before she fell asleep. She believed that things had changed beyond recognition, yet someone still remembered her.
She knew that Xia Fan was indeed born in the current era and could not possibly be from the same period as her. Yet, he knew of her existence, which meant he must have information related to her.
This greatly surprised Bing Shuang, the Imperial Daughter.
"I don't!"
Xia Fan shook his head, his expression unusually calm. "I only got some information about you from the Rain Immortal Realm, and it just happened to ring a bell, so I remembered it."
"As for more details, I'm not clear."
He stared at Frost's beautiful face for a while, then asked curiously, "Are you the daughter of an Immortal Emperor?"
"That's right."
Frost did not hide this point. After all, with her strength, she didn't need to be extra cautious when facing Xia Fan. "I am indeed the daughter of an Immortal Emperor, no doubt about it!"
"Since you know me, can you tell me what the situation is like in the Rain Immortal Realm now?"
As she spoke, her eyes were filled with anticipation.
Although Frost discovered that everything had changed and she was no longer in the Rain Immortal Realm after waking up, she anticipated that a major accident might have occurred in the Rain Immortal Realm, and even her Imperial Father might have... But she still held onto hope, wanting to hear different news, or rather, to confirm her suspicions.
"The Rain Immortal Realm, huh..."
Xia Fan's mind flashed with his experiences in the Rain Immortal Realm back then. Then he calmly said, "The Rain Immortal Realm has completely disappeared!"
"I don't know what happened inside, but I saw the Rain Immortal Realm disappear with my own eyes."
"Back then, the Rain Immortal Realm opened, and many powerful individuals entered it to seek opportunities. Later, the space inside collapsed, sweeping away the remaining palaces of the Rain Immortal Realm and even involving many treasure hunters."
"That spatial power would only continuously devour, so the Rain Immortal Realm was gone."
"Completely disappeared..."
In an instant, the look in Frost's eyes became extremely desolate, and waves of sorrowful aura continuously emanated from her body.
This extreme coldness made Xia Fan show a hint of vigilance, his eyes fixed on her every move.
Although Frost knew this possibility was great, she couldn't help but feel sad after truly hearing the news. "It seems, it still couldn't escape that calamity!"
"Alas..."
As Frost's emotions fluctuated intensely, waves of sorrow spread, and terrifying icy power continuously emanated.
At this moment, on this mountain peak, the air seemed to be frozen. If any being below the third rank were here, they would probably be frozen instantly and die without a burial place!
This was not even actively emitted by Frost, and it was unknown how terrifying her true strength was.
"What's going on?"
Xia Fan was still surprised by the influence brought by this Di Nv. Suddenly, he frowned, as if he had discovered something extraordinary.
His gaze continuously swept back and forth across Frost, as if he wanted to find the connection.
Because... just now, he could clearly feel that the Immortal Corpse head, which was suppressed by the eastern emperor bell, had reacted, stirring inside.
And this disturbance seemed to have only occurred after Frost revealed her sorrow and icy power.
"Could it be because of this Frost?"
Xia Fan pondered for a moment, then finally stared intently at Frost, his heart unable to stop guessing.
From the beginning, he knew that this Immortal Corpse head was extraordinary. Later, when it touched the Severed Arm, he understood that the head was even more terrifying than he had imagined. Therefore, even now, he didn't dare to casually deal with this Immortal Corpse head, or directly devour it.
But now, the Immortal Corpse head actually reacted due to Frost; it was hard to guarantee that uncontrollable changes wouldn't occur later.
Thinking back, just a Severed Arm of that Immortal Corpse could possess such terrifying power, causing powerful individuals from all directions to flee in disarray. The core Immortal Corpse head must be even more powerful than the Severed Arm.
Moreover, that Severed Arm had developed self-awareness, knowing what it needed, and was firmly advancing towards its goal.
Now, that Severed Arm had absorbed the vitality of many later-generation powerhouses, and had even attacked other remaining limbs and Severed Arms. It was unknown what level of strength it had reached.
In Xia Fan's opinion, had this Immortal Corpse head also developed self-awareness? Or even retained its consciousness from before death?
Otherwise, why did it react when Frost only leaked a trace of her aura?
"It seems, I must be careful."
Xia Fan silently applied more power to the eastern emperor bell, allowing it to better suppress the Immortal Corpse head. "In ancient times, after this immortal died, his body was actually dismembered and suppressed by others, yet not directly destroyed. This shows the extraordinary nature of this immortal during his lifetime, and the deterrence he brought to others."
"If this immortal is related to Frost..."
"Frost!"
Just as Xia Fan was lost in thought, a faint voice suddenly entered his mind.
This surprised him immensely, because... he could feel that this voice came from within the eastern emperor bell.
Xia Fan was worried that things might get out of control, so he split a wisp of his divine soul to sense the situation inside the eastern emperor bell, or more accurately, to sense the Immortal Corpse head.
This sight directly startled him.
Within that originally lifeless head, there were actually signs of a consciousness beginning to revive, and these signs of revival were very obvious.
"After being dead for so many years, with only the head left, it still has consciousness!"
For a moment, Xia Fan's heart roared. He realized that there might be trouble this time, and his heartbeat accelerated wildly.
He wasn't sure if he would be a match for the Immortal Corpse head if it truly fully revived.
"This voice... it's so familiar!"
Opposite him, Frost also seemed to have heard this voice. Her clear gaze looked at Xia Fan, carrying a hint of scrutiny.
It seemed as if her gaze had penetrated into Xia Fan's body, seeing the scene inside the eastern emperor bell.
"Thump! Thump!"
Under these circumstances, Xia Fan's heart grew increasingly tense. He wished he could immediately summon the eastern emperor bell and fully suppress the Immortal Corpse head, but doing so might expose the situation.
"How could his consciousness appear within your body?"
Suddenly, Frost's beautiful eyes widened, and she looked at him coldly, questioning him incessantly, "What exactly did you do?"
