Ling Feng never imagined that An Lan, with her fairy-like, cool temperament, would actually resort to such forceful methods to make him comply!

However, this also indicated that the situation had indeed reached an extremely urgent point.

Ling Feng's voice softened, "An Lan, some things cannot be rushed, let me go first, and we can properly discuss matters between us. You are so beautiful, and I have only been pretending to be a gentleman on the surface, but in my heart, I do indeed agree with your terms."

An Lan looked at Ling Feng with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Ling Feng, you've forgotten one thing—no one can lie in front of me. Clearly, you're just trying to buy time with a delaying tactic. I'm sorry, but for the future of my Snowman Tribe, I must do this. The Witch succession cannot end with me!"

A twitch appeared at the corner of Ling Feng's mouth: "Well... there must be other solutions to the problem, right? I think as long as the creature under the Formation is eliminated, your Shaman Girls wouldn't need to guard such heavy responsibilities and waste generation after generation's youth, right?"

"Even this Formation cannot destroy it, so it won't be easy!" An Lan said softly, "Stop talking, my mind is made up, and you need not worry about this. After the spirit breeding ritual is over, I will give you the Origin Water, and by the time you leave this Small World, you will naturally forget all about the Snowman Tribe."

Saying this, An Lan no longer paid attention to Ling Feng and strolled to the square sacrificial altar in the center of the circular platform.

The Ice Jade Spirit Cat was placed by An Lan on a stone box atop the altar, and she murmured to it, gazing at the cat, "Love? For us Shaman Girls, that's akin to poison!"

The Ice Jade Spirit Cat tilted its head to look at An Lan; in its eyes seemed to carry an infinite vicissitude. The spirit breeding ritual was not new to it, and the Ice Jade Spirit Cat was very aware of what was to come.

It licked An Lan's fingers, and An Lan smiled slightly, "Heaven and Earth Ice Spirit, heed my command, Cold Ice Qi, converge upon my body!"

The entire space trembled slightly, then all the cold air, like a hurricane, surged towards An Lan's body. Like a black hole, she continually devoured the Mysterious Ice Cold Qi of the formation space.

As the copious Cold Ice Qi entered her, An Lan's originally fair complexion turned extremely pale, and a layer of azure ice gradually appeared around her body.

Ling Feng watched An Lan undertaking all of this, his heart filled with complex emotions!

He admired An Lan's protection for the Snowman Tribe, admired her for taking on the Shaman Girl's responsibilities, admired her sacrifice! An Lan was only in her early twenties, but the burden on her shoulders was the very survival of the entire Snowman Tribe, and suddenly, Ling Feng felt a twinge of heartache for An Lan.

Looking at An Lan's stunning profile, Ling Feng sighed softly in his heart. In this formation space, An Lan was the sovereign, and although Ling Feng wanted to stop her, he simply couldn't bring himself to voice it!

Outsiders could not understand the responsibilities of the Shaman Girl, so what right did they have to ask them to give it up?

At that moment, An Lan's lips parted, and two white Beads appeared from her mouth, each emanating an astonishing Mysterious Ice Cold Qi.

These were the essence of the Cold Ice Beads that An Lan had condensed after more than twenty years of hard cultivation. As long as enough Cold Ice Qi was absorbed, the Cold Ice Beads would transform qualitatively from a quantitative change into Origin Water.

The essence of the two Cold Ice Beads, if nothing unexpected, could condense into two drops of Origin Water, and that was the condition An Lan had offered Ling Feng in their bargain.

With the appearance of the essence of the Cold Ice Beads, all the cold air in the formation space turned into two torrents, continuously flowing towards the two Beads.

Boom! Suddenly, from beneath the formation platform, a violent attack erupted, shaking the entire formation space!

Ling Feng also felt dizzy, as if a super earthquake had occurred.

"Don't worry!" before Ling Feng could ask, An Lan's ethereal voice came through, "That monster below is attacking the formation because it can sense what I'm doing right now, so it's getting anxious and angry!"

Ling Feng couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement; despite being sealed for so long, he hadn't expected it to still possess such formidable strength!

Boom, boom, boom! The formation shook again, runes on those eight huge stone pillars flashed, powerful forces circulated within, and the stone box on the floating sacrificial altar suddenly emitted blinding light. The stone box opened, and an ancient aura rushed forth!

Inside the stone box, surprisingly, was an ancient sword sheath, simple and unadorned, yet filled with an infinite sense of time and grandeur.

The Ice Jade Spirit Cat let out a soft cry, then transformed into a white light that shot into the sword sheath. The sheath glowed intensely, shooting a beam of light toward the formation above the center of the platform!

Boom! The sword sheath fell, and the whole platform suddenly sank, followed by a deafening scream from below!

Clearly, the sword sheath's attack had dealt a heavy blow to the monster below!

After the severe damage, the formation quieted down. The sword sheath returned to the stone box, and the Ice Jade Spirit Cat reappeared, but it was obvious that its spirit was somewhat weakened, and its body had shrunk.

It was only then that Ling Feng truly felt the unrest and fear weighing on An Lan's heart. Every time the Ice Jade Spirit Cat suppressed the monster, its strength would be reduced. With the spirit cat's current strength, how many more times could it suppress the beast? Were they really waiting for the formation to fall apart, the monster to break the seal, and the Snowman Tribe to be annihilated?

An Lan's face showed no fluctuation, and her two beads continued to absorb the vast Cold Ice Qi. Finally, after more than a half hour, the two beads had become full, their deep blue interiors as if water was flowing within.

"Is this the Origin Water?" Ling Feng looked at the two beads, sensing the strong and pure power contained within them.

An Lan's complexion was pale, her aura had weakened significantly, and she landed on the sacrificial altar, holding the two beads in her hands.

"Spirit breeding begins!" An Lan placed one of the beads on top of the Ice Jade Spirit Cat's head. The bead floated above, and streams of spiritual energy flowed continuously from the bead like ripples on water, entering into the spirit cat's body.

The Ice Jade Spirit Cat squinted its eyes, as if falling into a deep sleep, but under the shelter of the spiritual energy, it grew larger and larger, gradually returning to the size of a normal house cat. At the same time, its breath grew stronger, enhancing the power of the entire formation significantly!

Boom, boom, boom, the monster beneath the formation attacked once more, sensing the strengthening of the formation and growing desperate!

But as the formation strengthened, faint phantom images emerged on the Eight Great Stone Pillars: dragons, tigers, phoenixes, turtles, bears, leopards, elephants, and snakes. The eight massive phantoms roared and once again suppressed the disturbance below the formation.

About twenty minutes later, there was a cracking sound as the bead floating above the Ice Jade Spirit Cat's head split open, turning into countless specks of light that dissipated into the air. Meanwhile, the Ice Jade Spirit Cat had grown to over half a meter in length, lying atop the sacrificial altar, asleep.

The power contained within a single drop of Origin Power was so immense! Ling Feng's eyes too revealed a look of shock.
