The person sitting cross-legged on the peak of the metal mountain was Fang Xingjian, who had just stepped into level 29 not long ago.
The reason he had come to the Horned Frogs Valley was because he wanted to make use of the thunderbolts in the sky to temper his body and increase the toughness of his physical body. He wanted to raise the toughness of his level 28 Divine Weapon to level 29, completing the first tier of perfection after he stepped into level 29.
Even the metal mountain under his feet was something he had created with the ingenuity of the Mountain Shifting Sword by controlling the geomagnetic forces. Although the Mountain Shifting Sword had long since been synthesized into the Prodigious Demolition Sword Physique, its essence was still present. It allowed Fang Xingjian to use his sword force to guide the terrain.
Right now, it was as if he had created a super lightning rod. He sat cross-legged on the top of the lightning rod and stared at the sky, waiting for the thunderstorm to descend. He was prepared to receive the heavenly thunderbolts into his body at any moment to strengthen the heavenly thunders and geomagnetic forces in his body and push forward the toughness of his physical body.
As for other people or matters, he did not care about them at all. To him, the two ladies before him were no different from ants, and there was no need for them to bother about them.
However, the Ice Palace's Saint and Priestess clearly did not think this way. They arrived at the platform at the top of the mountain, looked at the platform that seemed to have been created, and felt astonished. They then looked at Fang Xingjian, who was sitting cross-legged and looking up at the sky, feeling even more bewildered.
The slightly older Ice Palace's Saint looked at Fang Xingjian with a judgmental gaze and thought, 'This platform seems to have been created by someone. 'It's true. If it's an expert amongst second transition experts, they should be able to achieve this. Was it done by this young lad? 'But he's a little too young, and his looks are ordinary. It doesn't seem like it was done by him. '
The Ice Palace's Priestess did not think so much. She did not notice anything suspicious about this young man and asked loudly, "Hey, how long have you been here? Did you see anything? Do you know what's going on? "
Fang Xingjian did not react as expected. He merely stared at the sky in a daze, as if he had not heard what the Ice Palace's Priestess had said.
The Ice Palace's Saint quickly pulled back the pretty-looking Priestess and said to Fang Xingjian, "I'm sorry, she was a little too outspoken. However, the iron mines here belong to our Ice Palace. I wonder what the metal mountain under our feet has to do with you?"
She made up her mind. No matter what, the man in front of her was strange. She had to be polite first.
However, Fang Xingjian continued to ignore him.
The young Ice Palace's Priestess pouted and said angrily, "What on earth is wrong with you? We're asking you questions out of goodwill. Why aren't you answering us properly?"
Seeing that Fang Xingjian was still ignoring her, the elderly Ice Palace's Saint became increasingly cautious. With her experience in the pugilistic world, she knew that such a person was either a lunatic or an expert.
Therefore, seeing that the Ice Palace's Priestess was about to go up and speak to Fang Xingjian, the Ice Palace's Saint pulled her back and stopped her.
Just then, another series of laughter rang out. A purple-haired man leaped onto the platform at the top of the mountain, casually throwing a glance at Fang Xingjian, and then stopping his gaze on the Ice Palace's Saint.
"Haha, ladies of the Ice Palace, what kind of anomaly has happened here? Has a treasure appeared? "
The Ice Palace's Saint said coldly, "Deus, this isn't the Circle of the Crimson Moon's territory."
"Since there's an anomaly in the Horned Frogs Valley, our Circle of the Crimson Moon can't just sit by and do nothing. If there's a treasure or an ancient relic that has appeared, we'll have to study it together with the factions in the vicinity."
The Ice Palace's Saint looked at the purple-haired man, feeling a little helpless. The Circle of the Crimson Moon had always been the Ice Palace's arch-enemy. The two factions had been fighting incessantly for several decades. It was impossible for them not to interfere in this anomaly.
This was especially the case for this guy called Deus. He was a genius disciple of the Circle of the Crimson Moon in this generation, someone who had hopes of attaining the second transition. He was not someone the Ice Palace's Saint and Priestess could deal with.
Just as the Ice Palace's Saint was feeling a little helpless, the sounds of air being pierced rang out incessantly. The Ice Palace's Saint turned her head and saw five or six silhouettes leaping and dashing up the metal mountain, reaching the platform at the top of the mountain one after another.
The Circle of the Crimson Moon, Shadow Hall, True Water Steel Shattering Sect, Sacred Martial Association... The factions in the vicinity arrived one after another, and everyone started talking amongst themselves. This was especially so for the factions who had some grudges against each other. The atmosphere was extremely heated, as if they were going to fight in the blink of an eye.
In such a situation, the Ice Palace's Saint and Priestess no longer had the right to speak. Even the genius disciple of the Circle of the Crimson Moon, Deus, was slowly backing off, prepared to face a chaotic battle at any moment.
As for Fang Xingjian, who was sitting cross-legged on the platform and looking at the sky, he had already been treated as an ordinary disciple of another faction. No one paid him any heed.
Just as the great chaos was about to break out, a gush of cold air descended from the sky, encompassing the entire platform in the blink of an eye. A cold voice then rang out, encompassing the entire place.
"To think that everyone is creating trouble in our Ice Palace's territory... Aren't you looking down on our Ice Palace a little too much?"
As the voice spoke, an extremely elegant figure descended from the sky, landing next to the Ice Palace's Saint and Priestess, bringing along waves of cold air.
The two ladies said happily, "Master, you're finally here."
That elegant voice belonged to a middle-aged lady with a cold expression, who looked like the Ice Palace's Saint. Although the lady was middle-aged, her figure and face were well maintained. Her face was snow-white, with not a single wrinkle to be found. Only the vicissitudes in her eyes, as well as her identity and attire, indicated her age.
She was the current leader of the Ice Palace, the Great Priestess, and a level 22 second transition expert.
Seeing the sudden appearance of this second transition expert, everyone present was slightly taken aback. There was nothing they could do about it. There were only 5,000 Conferred Knights in the entire Empire, and second transition experts were extremely rare existences in the entire Empire. Any one of them would be able to dominate an area.
It was just like back in Kirst. The Prefectural Academy's Headmaster, a level 26 Conferred Knight, had been able to suppress the entire Kirst.
The Great Priestess threw a glance, and wherever her gaze passed by, all the wild Knights lowered their heads, not daring to meet her gaze.
"Hmph, a bunch of good-for-nothings dare to create trouble in our Ice Palace?"
Just then, the Circle of the Crimson Moon's Deus could not help but say, "The anomaly here involves the entire Horned Frogs Valley. Yet, the Ice Palace wants to take it all for itself? Isn't that too domineering? "
The Great Priestess frowned and looked at Deus with a pair of eyes filled with fury. She said coldly, "This is our Ice Palace's territory, and everything under your feet belongs to our Ice Palace. Yet, you still want a share?"
The cold air on the platform grew increasingly colder, and frost had unknowingly appeared on everyone's brows and hair. Under such an extremely low temperature, no one dared to rebut the Great Priestess. This was the power of a second transition expert.
Just then, an extremely evil aura gushed forth. Everyone on the platform felt as if their bodies had suddenly become extremely hot, and the blood in their bodies seemed to be seething and seething. No matter how they tried to suppress it, they could not control it.
The Great Priestess' eyes gleamed explosively. "Blood Kaiser! You dare to create trouble in our Ice Palace? "
An extremely cold voice rang out from the sky, "Great Priestess, if it wasn't on account of the fact that the Ice Palace is just a bunch of weak women, I would have uprooted all of you long ago."
