Ice suddenly sprang up, leaping out of the icy surface of the lake and disappearing into the air above it. At this moment, it seemed as if Ice was drawn by something, completely disregarding the remaining three individuals.
Perhaps it truly was attracted by something; as soon as Ice left the surface of the lake, the ice pillars on the lake transformed into water columns that plunged into the lake, and all the water below quickly dissolved. The remaining three individuals felt as if they had been reborn, immediately sitting weakly at the bottom of the water, while the general continued to shiver uncontrollably because, although the ice had melted, the temperature of the water remained extremely low.
Behind them, none of the Cavalry clad in Silver Armor survived, and only a little over ten Sky Knights were still alive, but they were extremely weakened, lying at the bottom of the water and trembling all over.
The Wind Serpent King had thick skin, but being a snake, it was sensitive to cold. With enemies still present, it couldn't care about anything else and swiftly flicked its tail, diving into the depths of the Mineral Palace in just a few breaths.
Master and his companions had narrowly escaped death; they seemed to still be recovering from their shock. Especially Master, who sat there with a deep and dazed expression, as if he had been frightened senseless.
Suddenly, he stood up and looked fiercely and resolutely at the dozen or so survivors behind him. He said, "This plan must succeed. No matter what that beast is or why it suddenly left; as long as we are alive, it proves that fate still favors us, allowing us to follow in our predecessors' footsteps. Therefore, we will now head towards the Mineral Palace. Those who retreat will be mercilessly killed."
With that, he waved his hand towards the Sky Knights lying on the ground. Immediately, a gentle Origin Force dispelled much of their chill; then under Master’s imposing presence, less than one-tenth of them followed him tremblingly into the palace.

After Ice leaped out of the lake, it hurriedly made its way towards Hollow Tree House; from its urgent demeanor, it seemed to be anticipating something while also feeling anxious.
Soon, Ice arrived at the wide square in front of Hollow Tree House where important male members of the Pocket Tribe had gathered together, seemingly watching something.
Ice swiftly dashed forward, and everyone parted to make way.
Ice then saw a colorful butterfly weakly standing on the ground. When it noticed Ice, it immediately flapped its wings several times in an attempt to fly up to Ice's side; however, it barely lifted off before falling back down instantly.
Ice took a large step forward to reach the Phantom Butterfly's side, crouching down its massive body and placing its paw flat on the ground as it watched the Phantom Butterfly slowly climb onto its claw like a grain of rice.
It lifted the Phantom Butterfly up to its eyes and stared in shock because Ice realized that the Phantom Butterfly was about to undergo a significant breakthrough. However, what concerned Ice more was Huo Feng's safety.
Thus, they began communicating in the universal language of magical beasts. The Phantom Butterfly eagerly conveyed Huo Feng's urgent message to Ice.
Moments later, the Phantom Butterfly suddenly emitted a rainbow of colors, and its form began to enlarge, its aura becoming even more enchanting.
In the next instant, the colorful light radiating from the Phantom Butterfly transformed into threads of color, slowly swirling around its body and wrapping it up. The body of the Phantom Butterfly began to shrink, and the colorful threads gradually tightened until they completely enveloped the Phantom Butterfly.
Ice lifted this colorful cocoon, which was over a meter tall, and placed it in the hall on the first floor of the Hollow Tree House. Ice understood that the Phantom Butterfly had gained immense fortune after becoming Huo Feng's Contract Beast by absorbing a drop of Huo Feng's blood, and it would enter a deep sleep. The day it broke free from its cocoon would mark a significant leap forward.
Ice did not understand the language of humans and could not convey all of Huo Feng's intentions to this Pocket Tribe. Therefore, after placing the Phantom Butterfly down, it strode confidently to a spot not far from the tree house. With both hands outstretched towards the tree house, a faint blue Light Barrier expanded outward from Ice's body, instantly surrounding the entire tree house. This was a barrier set up using Ice's Origin Force to prevent others from entering or exiting.
At that moment, Ice learned that Huo Feng had other plans and had signed a contract with the Phantom Butterfly. Its mood relaxed; as long as the Phantom Butterfly was alive, Huo Feng would definitely be safe.
Ice immediately shrank its body again into a fist-sized form and flickered away to the Mineral Palace. It cautiously submerged into the water and, upon discovering that Qixi and Wind Serpent King were missing, it carefully entered the Mineral Palace.
As it infiltrated the interior of the Mineral Palace, it found that in the hall, the Second General, Ling the Elder, and over ten surviving Sky Knights were vigilantly surrounding Master. Due to the Mineral Palace's ability to shield against detection of its aura, Ice did not see Wind Serpent King. Thus, it slowly moved along the pillars around the hall while sticking close to them.
Eventually, it reached the front of the main hall where Wind Serpent King's throne had been before being devoured.
At that moment, Ice saw Master performing strange gestures in front of the throne while murmuring something. In a side passage leading to the back hall, Ice noticed Wind Serpent King motionless in a corner.
Curious, Ice moved closer to Wind Serpent King; however, Wind Serpent King seemed oblivious to its presence, quietly hovering there with its wings spread wide, facing towards Master.
At that moment, there was a yellow glow emanating from Wind Serpent King's abdomen, shining through its solid body and casting light outside.
Ice sensed that this glowing object must be related to that throne and couldn't help but wonder, "Could Wind Serpent King's condition be connected to what is happening with Master?"
Moments later, Ice's thoughts were confirmed; Master suddenly jumped up and spat towards the front of the hall. A transparent yellow throne appeared before him.
Immediately afterward, Master landed on the ground in a seated position. He brought his hands together in front of his chest while his lips moved; then he slowly spread his hands apart to reveal a thumb-sized Green Orb suspended between them.
At that moment, Wind Serpent King seemed possessed as it moved toward the transparent throne. Ice wanted to intervene but remembered Huo Feng's instructions to secretly follow them to find the Teleportation Array leading to Otherworld. Thus, Ice restrained itself and observed quietly.
When the Wind Serpent King arrived before the Transparent Throne, the Master forcefully pushed his hands forward, and the green orb instantly shot towards the Wind Serpent.
The Green Orb quietly drilled into the Wind Serpent King's body, causing it to open its mouth wide as a Yellow Light slowly moved towards its throat.
A throne radiating Yellow Light erupted from the Wind Serpent King's mouth, stopping only when it reached a size similar to that of the transparent yellow throne, then directly landing on top of the Transparent Throne until it completely overlapped and stabilized.
The Master suddenly spoke, "This is a critical moment; everyone pay attention."
At that moment, the Wind Serpent King's eyes turned red, and the eyes of the Ore Serpent Head on the throne also turned red, its body twisting as if it had come to life.
Suddenly, dozens of Snake Heads shot out red beams of light that pierced through the hall and outwards.
The Master's face flushed with excitement as he urged, "Quickly, follow the light and see where it leads."
Their group of over ten people swiftly followed the Red Light, leaving only the Wind Serpent King standing still before the throne, while Bing could not care less about it and hurriedly followed the Master and the others outside.
As they chased after the light, Bing leaped out onto the lake's surface; at that moment, he realized that the light was actually directed towards the Hollow Tree House. However, since he had set up a barrier there, he felt no concern.
When the Master and his group reached the Hollow Tree House, they found that the light seemed to be cut off here, even though there was clearly an open space in front of them.
Everyone immediately stopped, hesitant to advance recklessly. The general looked anxiously at the Master and asked, "Master, how could this happen? What should we do now?"
The Master furrowed his brows and suddenly turned to a Sky Knight behind him, saying, "You, go check it out."
The man stood frozen in place, fear written all over his face. At that moment, the Master glared at him; under his imposing presence, the Sky Knight trembled as he stepped forward.
When he approached that empty area, he was already drenched in sweat but dared not stop.
As soon as he took a step forward, it felt like he had collided with something and was bounced back.
Seeing this scene, Master also became puzzled. He only knew that there was something guarding this place according to the records, but there was no mention of any barrier.
However, he decisively said, "All Sky Knights, explore along this barrier to see if there are any flaws; General and Ling the Elder, let’s work together to see if we can break this barrier."
Inside the barrier, those beams of light shot directly at the top of Hollow Tree House.
The atmosphere of the entire Pocket Tribe became tense, and the tribe leader Mo Qi was pacing back and forth in his room, feeling alarmed. "Could it be that they have come? Has Wind Serpent already been controlled?"
…………
Five time units passed like this, and Master and the others still had no way to deal with the barrier. He felt like an ant on a hot pan, anxious to the point of jumping. His voice was weary and hoarse as he said, "Let’s go back to Mineral Palace."
At that moment, in Thunder Punishment Hell, Huo Feng suddenly opened his eyes. Instantly, two beams of golden light shot into the air, and the Silver Radiance on his body gradually faded.
Huo Feng stood up, feeling exceptionally joyful. "I actually broke through, and I’ve directly reached the Second Stage of Pulse Realm! Hahaha..."
Huo Feng looked down with his golden eyes, shooting out two more beams of golden light that instantly pierced two large holes in Thunder Punishment Hell.
Huo Feng jumped down and landed in front of Thunderstrike Hall's main door, then walked directly into the hall while muttering to himself, "Ice, I'm coming back. Wait for me."
