Chapter 535: Exquisite Method
Following that, the freezing effect spread in all directions, instantly freezing the entire space!
He never expected the power of this ice-type spell to be so great.
Klein, who was casting the spell, couldn’t help but be surprised. He looked at the space in front of him that had instantly turned into a world of ice and exclaimed at how terrifying this spell was.
That’s right. Once the spell was cast, the effect would gradually spread throughout the entire space even if the person stopped.
The spread was uncontrollable. It was impossible to stop it with human strength until the entire space turned into a frozen world of ice and snow!
And the slow-moving spider was also affected. Its entire body was wrapped in ice. It maintained a strange posture and completely fused with the space in front of it!
It looked like the area of the space wasn’t small, and the influence of the magic was still spreading.
And before it completely stopped, Klein would be like an ice sculpture, tightly controlled within a certain range and unable to move.
This created a predicament.
If the space was infinite, then the spread of the magic would take far longer than ten minutes.
Klein, who was unable to move, would likely be instantly torn apart by the distorted space.
Thinking of this, Klein’s heart skipped a beat. If his entire body hadn’t been frozen, he would probably have been drenched in cold sweat.
It seemed like he had overlooked the vastness of the space. It was like shooting himself in the foot.
Klein sighed softly. ‘Forget it, I’ll just leave it to fate.’
At that moment, the system sent another warning.
This time, it was a red warning. The space would distort and transform in two minutes!
The magic effect continued, followed by one minute, thirty seconds, ten seconds…
At that moment, Klein had already resigned himself to fate and closed his eyes. It looked like he was really going to be torn to shreds like the spider.
Unfortunately, as a living person, he was unable to reassemble and be reborn.
It looked like his agreement with James was about to be nullified. He wondered if the fellow would hate him?
Ten seconds later, time seemed to have stopped.
Klein held his breath to welcome the final judgment. The strange thing was that the spatial distortion didn’t come.
After a long time, Klein opened his eyes. There was still a frozen silver world in front of him.
The ugly spider didn’t change its posture at all.
At that moment, the freezing effect had gradually weakened. The shackles on Klein’s body were completely removed, and his soft body gradually landed on the ground.
Klein’s heart finally relaxed, and he finally realized why the spatial distortion had disappeared.
Indeed, no matter how strong the power was, it was unable to distort a world that was completely frozen.
After being completely frozen by ice-type magic, time stopped for a few days.
Klein heaved a sigh of relief and patted his cold chest.
This was probably the only time in his life that he had the opportunity to use the ice spell.
He walked up to the gigantic and ugly spider and kicked its butt.
This thing had really tormented him quite a bit, and he was prepared to use this primitive method to vent his dissatisfaction!
Since the giant spider had been dealt with, Klein began to explore other places in this space.
Not long after, Klein realized a problem. He had frozen everything in this world, and the path to other places seemed to have been completely sealed…
Upon realizing this, Klein felt a little awkward.
Helpless, he could only try to use true fire to melt the frozen ice.
As expected, the power of true fire was slightly stronger.
Although it clashed with ice magic, true fire was slightly stronger.
He burned a small hole in a narrow space that only allowed one person to enter, and he dug the hole into another space.
This space seemed to be like a huge tropical botanical garden. It was filled with all kinds of trees.
Almost any plant that could be described could be found here.
Klein’s eyes suddenly lit up. A towering ancient tree that reached into the clouds caught his attention.
He recognized this tree. It was actually a raw material needed to refine the immortal divine medicine, the Xanthium tree.
Xanthium was a very strange legend,
It was said that after death, a person would become a ghost, and after death, it would become Xanthium.
After a long period of refinement, it would turn into a magical mulberry tree.
Of course, all of this was only a legend, and it also confirmed the mystery of Xanthium.
It was said that the entire Xanthium tree was a treasure, and even a leaf was a good medicine to treat illnesses.
To be able to see the legendary magical tree was truly not a wasted trip.
Looking at the dense trees around him, Klein suddenly had an idea.
Every tree was different because their environment and natural conditions were different. The quality and composition of the trees were also very different.
That’s right, the quality of each tree was different.
Although most of the trunks were denser, even a small root would be very heavy for a human.
There were exceptions, such as the one in front of Klein.
This was a special tree that was not commonly seen. Its weight had already exceeded the imagination of humans.
A tree trunk the size of a human weighed about the same mass as an ordinary human.
Upon realizing this, Klein immediately thought of an extremely exquisite method.
As long as the wood in front of him was of a similar mass as a human and was made into the outline of a human and placed on a platform, it could be used as a sacrifice for a living person.
With that, he and James would be able to escape from the mysterious space!
This was indeed a brilliant idea. This way, they would be able to achieve their goal without sacrificing any living person!
Klein was truly in awe of himself for being able to come up with such a brilliant idea.
He quickly cut down the tree and prepared to carry it back for careful study.
James had been lying on the platform the entire time.
On one hand, he was afraid that Klein wouldn’t be able to open the door when he returned.
On the other hand, he felt that it was too boring to lie here alone. He wanted to sleep, but he couldn’t. All he could do was silently look at the sky above him.
In fact, even if Klein didn’t return, James wouldn’t have too much resentment.
After all, everyone wanted to live. No one had the obligation to sacrifice themselves for others.
Since Klein was able to leave alive, it proved that he had the ability and ability to survive in this treacherous world.
Just as James was letting his imagination run wild, the sound of brisk footsteps came from outside the door,
James turned his head with a thought. As expected, he looked at Klein and returned with a face full of joy.
“James, I’m back, and I’ve found a way to unlock the platform’s mechanism!”
James was taken aback and quickly jumped down from the platform.
