Ji Tianxing followed the guards and slowly climbed up the ice mountain.
On the enormous iceberg ten thousand meters tall, a narrow staircase of ice was dug from the foot of the mountain to the middle of the mountain.
Ji Tianxing followed the guards and climbed up the ice staircase to the middle of the mountain.
In the process, he silently observed the defenses on the ice mountain.
He found that the interior of the ice mountain had been hollowed out and built into many demon caves.
There were dozens of intersecting tunnels at the foot of the mountain and deep underground. There were more than thirty demon caves.
Who knew how many demon warriors and elite guards were hiding in those demon caves.
All the passages on the ice mountain were heavily guarded and the security was very tight.
Originally, Ji Tianxing could use his soul power to secretly investigate the situation inside the ice mountain.
However, this was the lair of the Demon Emperor. Not only did the Ancient Demon Emperor reside here, but there were also several Demon Commanders and countless demon experts.
Ji Tianxing had to be extremely cautious. He did not dare to use any soul power, nor did he dare to reveal his human aura.
He could only observe the ice mountain with his naked eyes and silently analyze and speculate.
Once his identity was exposed or he was suspected by the Demon Commanders and the Demon Emperor, he would be in great danger.
He even had to keep a low profile and not attract the attention of the Demon Commanders and the Demon Emperor.
An hour later, he followed the guards and climbed over ten thousand steps, passed through six checkpoints, and finally reached the middle of the mountain.
In front of him was an empty space near a cliff. The ground was formed from light blue ice.
There were dozens of ice statues on the empty space. They were all ancient demon gods or ferocious demon beasts.
Below the cliff was a straight and steep ice wall that was more than four thousand meters high.
There were rows of icicles hanging from the ice wall like spears. It was a spectacular sight.
At the back of the open space, there was a huge ice crystal palace on the side of the ice mountain.
This palace was carved out of the ice mountain. It was more than a thousand feet wide and had three floors.
The palace gate faced the empty space. There were eight guards in black armor on both sides of the gate.
There were three large black words carved on the lintel of the gate.
Saintess Palace.
The two Guard Commanders led Ji Tianxing and the others to the open space outside the gate.
Ji Tianxing looked up at the Holy Maiden Palace with a complicated expression. He muttered to himself, "Holy Maiden, I'll be able to see you soon … Are you my Yao Yao?"
At this moment, the middle-aged leader said with a solemn expression, "Everyone, this is the Saintess's palace, the Saintess's Palace.
From now on, you will be the personal guards of the Saintess.
My surname is Hu. You can call me Commander Hu. From now on, I will be your Commander and Captain.
You must abide by the rules of the Saintess Palace. You must not disobey the wishes and orders of the Saintess.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Devil Palace was located at the top of the mountain, where the Devil King resided.
That is the sacred land and forbidden land of my clan. No one is allowed to approach it for no reason. If they are discovered, they will be executed immediately!
In a moment, I will bring you into the Saintess Palace and arrange for you to stay on the first floor of the palace.
If you have nothing else to do, you can stay in your rooms and cultivate. Wait for my orders. Do not wander around at will … "
Commander Hu explained the rules of the Saintess Palace to them in a dignified tone. After that, he led them into the Saintess Palace.
The first floor of the palace was the residence of the guards and personal guards. There were more than 100 rooms, all of which were made of ice crystals and were protected by a Tianyuan Level Array.
After Commander Hu settled them in, he asked them to stay in their rooms and recuperate. He also asked them to memorize the rules of the Saintess Palace.
For the past few days, the Saintess had been cultivating in her room on the third floor of the palace.
As long as the Saintess did not leave the palace, the personal guards had nothing to do. They could rest in peace.
Soon, night fell.
In the cold and gloomy Saintess Palace, there was no light at all. Only the moonstone lamps in the passageways were lit.
Under the night sky, the Saintess Palace was lit up with specks of silver light. It was extremely quiet and peaceful.
Apart from Ji Tianxing, the rest of the ninety or so personal guards had been on the road for eighteen days. They were exhausted and weak.
When night fell, the personal guards stayed in their rooms. They were either sleeping or meditating to recover.
Ji Tianxing was the only one who did not sleep or meditate.
He sat on the ice bed, frowning. He was thinking about his next plan.
"This is the nest of the Demon King. I can't stay here for long. Otherwise, the Demon Commander and the Demon King will find me sooner or later.
Besides, I killed General Ge Lie and his son, which may arouse the suspicion of the White Mountain City Governor.
Even though I didn't leave any evidence, I have to prevent the White Mountain City Governor from reporting to the Sky Barbarian Demon Commander...
So, I can't waste time. I have to find the Saintess as soon as possible and find out who she is! "
After making up his mind, Ji Tianxing quietly left the room. He walked through the dimly lit passageway and sneaked to the third floor of the palace.
However, the Saintess Palace was strictly guarded and had strict rules.
The personal guards could only move around on the first floor of the palace. They were not even allowed to go to the second floor.
Moreover, there were four guards guarding the staircase on the second floor of the palace.
Each of the guards was at level two of Sky Origin Stage.
They were as motionless as statues, guarding the entrance of the staircase without moving an inch.
Ji Tianxing could not sneak under their eyes, let alone fly to the third floor of the palace.
After all, the entire Saintess Palace was protected by a great array. There were many traps and mechanisms.
He had no choice but to take out an Invisibility Charm from his interspatial ring.
When he left the Central Plains, Long Yunxiao and Kun Wu gave him a lot of cultivation resources and treasures.
There were not only spiritual stones, dan beads, magic treasures, but also many mysterious charms.
This Tianyuan Grade Invisibility Talisman could hide his body and aura for 15 minutes.
"A quarter of an hour is enough!"
Ji Tianxing hid in a corner and cast an Invisibility Talisman. His entire body immediately turned transparent and disappeared into thin air.
He quietly walked over the stairs, walked past the four guards, and sneaked to the second floor of the palace.
The second floor of the palace was very quiet. There were only over twenty people living there. They were the two guards and the maids of the Saintess Palace.
Similarly, the staircase leading to the third floor of the palace was also guarded by several elite guards.
The six guards in black armor were all at Sky Origin Stage Level 4. They stood still at the stairs and kept alert.
Ji Tianxing was even more cautious. He tiptoed over the stairs and finally reached the third floor of the palace.
There were not many rooms on the third floor of the palace. There were only over a dozen rooms. Most of them were empty.
This was where the Saintess lived. She usually lived alone.
It was late at night. Over a dozen rooms were as dark as ink. Only the biggest room was lit up.
Ji Tianxing knew that the Saintess was in that room!
