The vast ice continent shattered in the chaos!
Before long, those ice would completely return to chaos, ceasing to exist!
Wang Teng was flabbergasted. What could have possibly occurred inside for the entire icy continent to explode and rupture?
He initially thought that only the area where the ancient architecture was located would collapse but now, it seemed that something far more significant had taken place.
After he left, something must have happened inside.
Perhaps it was caused by the revival of that person, or maybe it was simply due to the loss of support from the ice-blue bead which resulted in the fragmentation of the icy continent.
Both were possible!
However, Wang Teng was unable to verify the truth.
He left immediately, not daring to stay any longer.
This was of course due to the person who hadn't died.
Wang Teng was aware that he had taken the other person's treasure. If that person found out, he would likely come looking for him.
Hence, he needed to run away quickly!
Run away as far as possible.
Wang Teng had always acted timid when faced with a powerful being of an unknown stage.
That was an existence he couldn't contend with.

However, many of them were struck by ice fragments and instantly exploded into chaotic energy.
Shortly after, Wang Teng also saw several rays of light rushing out of the icy continent in a panic, swiftly fleeing into the chaos without the slightest hesitation.
"It's them!"
Wang Teng immediately thought of Wei Na and the others.
Based on the number of light rays, all the people seemed to have escaped. No one died.
That person didn't kill them?
This thought flashed through Wang Teng's mind. He increased his speed and executed both his Light Bolt and Space Flash battle techniques. Gradually, he ventured deeper into the chaos until the icy continent was no longer in sight.
After flying for some time, Wang Teng let out a slight sigh of relief and glanced back before finally coming to a gradual stop.
I should be safe now, right? Wang Teng surveyed his surroundings, feeling a bit more at ease.
This was a small piece of land formed from chaotic currents. Numerous scattered rocks lay haphazardly, and peculiar stones jutted out at odd angles.
Wang Teng chose a stone and sat cross-legged on it.
Amidst the currents of chaotic energy, the evolution of the laws created a somewhat disorderly environment, which also provided some concealment from detection.
This was why Wang Teng chose to hide within the chaotic currents. He enveloped himself in a layer of Origin Energy of Chaos, making him even more inconspicuous. Not even the Chaotic Beasts could detect his presence.
"That was dangerous!" Wang Teng heaved a sigh of relief and muttered to himself.
Then, he couldn't help but feel excited. He felt that the ice-blue bead was an extraordinary treasure!

He managed to reap the rewards from a group of heaven-stage seniors.
He was excited just thinking about it.
With these thoughts in mind, he couldn't wait any longer and wanted to enter his Devour Space to carefully examine the ice-blue bead.
After all, this place should be relatively safe…
Safe my foot!
Suddenly, Wang Teng's expression stiffened, and his whole body seemed to be frozen. His forehead… no, his entire skull felt like it was about to explode.
Terrifying!
Scary!
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him and looked at him silently. His gaze was indifferent and his expression was calm.
This was a middle-aged man with a weathered face but exuded a sense of authority. His attire was exceptionally luxurious, yet it carried a touch of ancient simplicity. It didn't follow the current popular styles.
He had long black hair cascading casually over his shoulders, giving him a carefree and ethereal appearance.
For some reason, Wang Teng wanted to be alone.
Yes, being alone was good.
"Boss, have we met somewhere before?" Wang Teng swallowed nervously as he stammered.
window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"})"We just met earlier. Have you forgotten about it?" the man replied nonchalantly, walking over and taking a seat on a nearby rock.
"To be honest, my memory isn't that great," Wang Teng's mind raced as he considered countless escape plans. However, on the surface, he didn't dare to reveal any expressions and could only smile awkwardly.
"Did you forget what you took from me?" The middle-aged man gave him an ambiguous smile.
"Well, um… I didn't forget," Wang Teng sighed helplessly. He covered his hands with divine flames and took out the ice-blue bead immediately. "Please don't misunderstand, I didn't steal it. I thought it was ownerless so I took it to play. I didn't have any ill intentions. Now, I'll return it to you."
"You're quite cheeky." The middle-aged man chuckled. His gaze lingered on the divine flames in Wang Teng's hand. Then, with a flick of his hand, he took the ice-blue bead back.
Surprisingly, the ice-blue bead did not affect him. There was no trace of ice on his hands.
Wang Teng felt the corners of his eyes twitching. He had already gotten the treasure but he had to return it to the other party.
This feeling was unbearable.
The treasure just slipped through his hands.
Throughout his cultivation journey, he had never encountered a situation like this before.
Once something was in his possession, he never let it slip away.
But now, he had to let it go. If not, he might lose his life.
One should be a coward when the time calls for it.
Wang Teng didn't dare to harbor any hope in front of a formidable existence like the middle-aged man.
If the treasure was gone, it was gone. However, he only had one life.
