Chapter 1373

Symbol Spirit

The Holy Ice Flame Rune trembled violently. Soon after, cold Qi and flames intertwined and surged out, transforming into a human figure. The figure's facial features were blurry, and its entire body was made of ice and fire.

The figure's eyes were extremely strange. Its left eye was fiery red and seemed to be flowing with magma, while its right eye was icy blue and seemed to be filled with ice and snow.

"The Symbol Spirit of the Holy Ice Flame Rune?"

Zhuo Wen stood quietly outside the cage and stared at the figure as he asked doubtfully.

The figure looked straight at Zhuowen and spoke in an ancient voice, "Young man, you're finally here. You didn't disappoint me. You've come as promised."

"Since I've come as promised, will you hand over the Holy Ice Flame Rune to me?" Zhuowen asked calmly.

The Symbol Spirit was taken aback. Soon after, it chuckled and said, "The Holy Ice Flame Rune will naturally be handed over to you. However, my body is imprisoned in the Ice and Fire Polarity Hall. If you want to obtain me, you must first break the imprisonment of the Ice and Fire Polarity Hall."

"Break the imprisonment?" Zhuowen furrowed his brows and continued, "At that time, will you really let me control the Holy Ice Flame Rune?"

"Young man, don't you believe me?

The Holy Ice Flame Rune is a treasure of heaven and earth. It cannot exist independently in this world. It must be controlled by someone. If you release me, I will naturally have to rely on you, "the Symbol Spirit said indifferently.

Zhuowen's eyes flickered. He sent a sound transmission to Xiao Hei in his Sea of Consciousness, "Xiao Hei, is the Symbol Spirit right?

Can the Holy Rune only exist by relying on someone else? "

"Indeed. If the Holy Ice Flame Rune wants to leave this world, it must rely on an expert to display its great power. Otherwise, if it exists alone in this world, it will be easily discovered by other experts and captured. However, I'm puzzled as to why the Holy Ice Flame Rune was suppressed by the master of the Ice and Fire Polarity Hall instead of relying on him," Xiao Hei said doubtfully.

Upon hearing this, Zhuowen nodded his head and explained Xiao Hei's intentions to the Symbol Spirit. The latter gave a self-deprecating laugh and said, "The master of the Ice and Fire Dual Polarity Hall is imprisoning me to benefit the entire Excellent Divine Academy."

"My ice and fire energy can temper a martial artist's meridians and increase their cultivation speed. It is because of the Ice and Fire Dual Polarity Palace that Excellent Divine Academy is able to produce batch after batch of elite disciples. They are even faintly catching up to Blue Dragon Hall."

"I see!"

Zhuowen muttered in a low voice. Soon after, he raised his head and said, "Then tell me how to break out of this cage."

The Talisman Spirit smiled and said, "It's very simple. There's an altar on the left side of the cage. You just have to inject your energy into it to activate the altar. Then, the confinement force of the cage will break and I'll be able to come out."

"So simple?" Zhuowen frowned and asked in surprise.

"How complicated do you want it to be?" The talisman spirit shrugged.

"Then I'll give it a try!"

As he spoke, Zhuo Wen slowly walked to the left. When he reached the end, there was indeed an altar made of white jade on the wall at the end of the corridor.

"You just have to place your hand on the altar."

The Symbol Spirit's gentle voice sounded. There was a trace of confusion in it. At the same time, a strange smile appeared on the Symbol Spirit's lips. Furthermore, this smile grew wider and wider.

"Kid!

Be careful. This altar is not simple. Don't be fooled by the Symbol Spirit. I'm afraid that half of its words are false. "

Blacky's voice suddenly rang out in Zhuo Wen's mind, causing Zhuo Wen, who was about to place his hand on the altar, to stiffen. His right hand also stopped in mid-air.

"Go in!"

The moment Zhuowen's body stopped, a cold voice suddenly sounded from behind him. Then, a claw filled with ice and fire energy grabbed Zhuowen's right hand and violently pressed it against the altar.

"You …"

Zhuowen's pupils shrank. He quickly turned around and saw that the Symbol Spirit, which was originally in the cage, had unknowingly appeared behind him. It was as if the Symbol Spirit was the owner of the palm.

"You're wondering how I was able to escape from the cage, right?" The Symbol Spirit stared at Zhuowen as the smile on its face grew increasingly strange.

"Haha!

It's because of the Ice Fire Holy Symbol's Origin in your body. That Origin is a seed that I sowed. Now is the time for it to bloom. Young man, don't worry. I will grant you supreme power that will allow you to possess the power of a Saint. However, the prerequisite is that you must give your body to me … "

As soon as the Symbol Spirit finished speaking, Zhuowen's pupils shrank to the size of needles. A word suddenly appeared in his mind: "Possession." The Symbol Spirit wanted to possess his body.

Whoosh!

At the same time, a terrifying suction force came from the altar. Then, Zhuowen felt a throbbing from the depths of his soul. This suction force was directed at his soul and wanted to pull it out.

"Bastard!"

Zhuowen cursed angrily as he tried his best to resist the suction force. He did not expect that the Symbol Spirit had set a trap for him and had been planning for this day's events for a long time.

"How dare a mere Symbol Spirit of the Ice Fire Holy Symbol plot against me. Die!"

A black ray of light shot out from between Zhuo Wen's brows as a dragon's roar reverberated across the sky. Blackie revealed his ten-thousand-foot-long dragon body, and with a swipe of his enormous dragon claws, he smashed towards the Symbol Spirit below.

"Hehe, I already knew of your existence when I gave the Ice Fire Holy Symbol's Origin to this boy. You can't kill me, Sacred Dragon of Extremity."

The Symbol Spirit chuckled and suddenly retreated into the cage. Its enormous dragon claw slammed into the surface of the cage but was unable to shake it at all.

"What a strong cage. Why is it as hard as a rock?" Xiao Hei glared and said in exasperation.

"To think that the mighty Abyssal Saint Dragon would fall to such a state. How pathetic."

If you were at your peak, you might be able to break this cage, but you won't be able to do so now. "The Symbol Spirit chuckled.

"Mongrel fox, why aren't you coming out yet? When are you going to stop watching the show? Zhuowen's soul is about to be pulled out by that damned altar!" Xiao Hei roared.

"I know. Why are you in such a hurry?"

A solemn voice sounded from Zhuowen's body. Then, Cheng Huang appeared above Zhuowen's head with the Fuxi Cauldron. It looked at the altar solemnly and pressed down with its right hand. The Fuxi Cauldron spat out a blazing white light that enveloped the entire altar.

Under the suppression of the white light, the terrifying suction force from the altar gradually weakened.

"The Fuxi Cauldron?" The Symbol Spirit could not help but exclaim as it stared at Cheng Huang and the Fuxi Cauldron.

"Of course it's the Fuxi Cauldron. Why do you think I'm following this kid? It's mainly because he has something like the Fuxi Cauldron," Xiao Hei said indifferently.

Zhuo Wen suddenly opened his eyes when the suction force of the altar weakened. He pulled back his right hand, which was originally placed on the altar. His expression was extremely ugly. He didn't expect to be tricked by the Ice Fire Holy Talisman in the end.

"So you've been tricking me from the beginning?" Zhuowen turned his head and stared at the Symbol Spirit with an extremely unfriendly gaze.

The Symbol Spirit frowned slightly. It had really miscalculated this time. It did not expect Zhuowen to have something like the Fuxi Cauldron.

"Hehe, did you think I was playing house by releasing that wisp of Origin Source?

It's a pity that it fell short of success in the end. "The Symbol Spirit shook its head regretfully.

Since the matter had been exposed, the Symbol Spirit naturally would not continue to pretend and simply shed all pretense of cordiality.

"Can't a Symbol Spirit only attach itself to a cultivator?

How can it possess a cultivator's body? "Zhuowen asked with a slight frown.

Xiao Hei sneered and said, "I'm afraid this guy in front of us is not a Symbol Spirit at all. No matter how intelligent a Symbol Spirit is, it can't be so cunning."

Upon hearing this, the Symbol Spirit in the cage narrowed its eyes and its expression became ugly.

"Not a Symbol Spirit?"

Zhuowen began to feel surprised. If the Ice Fire Holy Talisman in front of him was not a Symbol Spirit, then what could it be?

"A Symbol Spirit will not possess a cultivator's body. Even if it does, it will not be compatible with the human body at all. Only the Nascent Soul of a cultivator can possess a cultivator's body. This guy in front of us is not a Symbol Spirit, but someone's Nascent Soul," Xiao Hei said indifferently.

The Symbol Spirit's eyes flickered and it suddenly laughed. "You're indeed the Saint Dragon of Abyss. You know a lot. But you're wrong about one thing. Even if I'm a Symbol Spirit, I'm still a Nascent Soul because I've merged with the Ice Fire Holy Talisman's Symbol Spirit."

"You've merged with the Symbol Spirit?

But your plan has failed. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to escape. "Xiao Hei sneered.

The Symbol Spirit shook its head and a pair of strange eyes fell on Zhuowen. Then it said in a charming voice, "Zhuowen, don't you want the Ice Fire Holy Talisman?

Didn't you come all the way to Fine Divine Academy for the Ice Fire Holy Talisman? "

"Now that the Ice Fire Holy Talisman is right in front of you, do you really want to miss it?

This is a treasure of heaven and earth. It has unimaginable power. If you miss it this time, you won't have another chance. "

Zhuowen sneered and said, "It's better than being schemed against by you."

With that, Zhuowen slowly retreated, intending to leave the 63th floor. But when he retreated to the entrance, he found that the entrance to the 63th floor had been sealed.

"You sealed the entrance?"

Zhuowen's eyes became extremely cold. It seemed that the Symbol Spirit did not intend to let him leave from the beginning.

"Hehe, you can't leave the 63th floor. This is my world."

The Symbol Spirit laughed. Suddenly, the Ice Fire Holy Talisman, which was quietly suspended in the cage, began to surge with terrifying ice and fire energy that swept across the entire 63th floor.

The ice and fire energy was like a tsunami that flooded the sky, drowning Zhuo Wen. In an instant, the originally quiet eighteenth level was enveloped by an extremely terrifying pressure. Zhuo Wen almost staggered from the pressure and knelt on the ground.
