This Thousand-legged Ice Worm was of the Catastrophe Bright Level, and even the slightest movement on the ice surface would awaken it.
"We need to drive it out," Ji Xinghuo said.
On Ji Xinghuo's wrist, the Spirit Sword Bracelet came off a bit and, powered by Spiritual Energy, extended into a red-hot sword, radiating intense heat.
The tip of the sword emitted a straight beam, stabbing into the ice surface.
He operated it carefully and delicately.
Amid sizzling sounds, the ice quickly melted, forming a small hole straight through to the water underneath.
"Go," Ji Xinghuo commanded.
Ji Xinghuo pulled out Qing Hong from his pocket.
Despite its dislike of cold temperatures, it swiftly jumped in and crawled through the small hole into the cold, dim water below. Via the Audio-Visual Bracelet, Ji Xinghuo synchronized his vision and hearing with Qing Hong's, guiding it to find the entrance of a hidden pathway. It first dived down in the water, then surfaced after reaching halfway.
