The Ice Emperor's Secret Realm was a land of ice and snow that stretched for tens of thousands of miles.
In a corner of the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm, an Ice Soul Evil Spirit was strolling aimlessly in the Ice Stone Forest.
Suddenly, the Ice Soul Evil Spirit seemed to have sensed something. Its figure flashed and flew a few hundred meters like an aurora. Its body paused, and a pair of scarlet eyes emitted a cold light. It slowly scanned the area as if it was looking for something.
Suddenly, something strange happened. An extremely sharp buzzing sound rang out, and before the Ice Soul Evil Spirit could react, it was as if an invisible blade had slashed down, directly splitting the Ice Soul Evil Spirit's body into two from head to toe.
In the next one hundredth of a breath, the crack quickly spread to the left and right, shattering both sides of the Ice Soul Evil Spirit's body.
A three-meter-tall and two-meter-wide spatial gate appeared. A pitch-black light rippled like water.
Three breaths later, the spatial door stabilized. Immediately, a figure appeared from within the pitch-black water like light. He took a step forward, and a powerful aura spread around his body, surging endlessly.
The first gate!
The second gate!
The third gate!
One figure after another quickly walked out of the spatial gate and arrived at the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm.
When the eighth figure walked out of the spatial gate with a terrifying aura, the spatial gate trembled and slowly closed. Three breaths later, it completely disappeared as if it had never appeared.
Each of the eight figures emitted a shocking aura that spread out in all directions. It caused the surrounding air to tremble and spread out like water ripples.
This was merely caused by the aura leaking out from the eight of them. The aura emitted by the leader was the most tyrannical, occupying almost half of the aura. There were two others who were slightly weaker. Although there were differences in strength among the other five, there was not much difference.
"Senior Brother Yu Wen, should we work together or …" The figure with the weakest aura asked.
"Let's split up and act separately to maximize our benefits." The leader with the most powerful aura had his hands behind his back as he spoke unhurriedly. His indifferent voice was like that of an almighty god, as if he wanted to dominate everything in the world.
"Senior Brother Yu Wen, if we split up and meet the geniuses of the Sky Pillar Upper Region …" The weakest aura spoke again.
"Marquis Silver Blade, what geniuses are there in the Sky Pillar Upper Region?"
"That's right. Marquis Silver Blade, you're boosting their morale and lowering our morale."
"Marquis Silver Blade, I think you're regressing the more you cultivate."
The person with the weakest aura was immediately reprimanded by the others, and he couldn't say a word.
"Alright, Marquis Silver Blade's concern is reasonable. However, you must remember that there are no geniuses in the Sky Pillar Upper Region in front of us, the Monarch, the Two Lords, and the Five Marquises. It was the same last time, and it will be the same this time," said the person with the second aura.
"Let's go. Don't waste any more time." The person with the third strongest aura also spoke. Then, his body flashed and transformed into a stream of light that flew away.
"Marquis Silver Blade, if you are worried, then follow me." Marquis Golden Spear sneered and transformed into a golden spear beam that tore through the sky.
"Hmph." Marquis Silver Blade snorted coldly and chose a different direction from Marquis Golden Spear. He turned into a silver blade light and flew across the sky, disappearing in a short while.
The Ice Stone Forest became peaceful again.
However, the people of Sky Pillar Upper Region did not know that someone from Tianyuan Sacred Region had already entered the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm.
…
"There's a sword mark here."
Chen Zong and the other two stopped and stared ahead. There was a five-meter-tall ice stone. There was a three-meter-long sword mark on the ice stone that emanated a sharp aura.
"Chen Shidi, Junior Sister Yu, why don't you try comprehending it since you are practicing the sword?" Fu Yunxiao said, "I will protect you."
Chen Zong and Yu Nianxin nodded and walked to the sword mark. They cleared all distracting thoughts and focused their eyes on it.
Both of them practiced the sword and had great attainments in the Way of the Sword. Chen Zong's Way of the Sword had reached the Perfection of the Third Level, which was even more brilliant.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths … Chen Zong's breathing gradually calmed down and became extremely long. His entire body seemed to emit a trace of tranquility and emptiness.
"So fast." Fu Yunxiao was shocked.
Chen Zong entered the state of comprehension too quickly. At this moment, Yu Nianxin was still adjusting.
Chen Zong, who had entered a state of comprehension, only felt as if an invisible figure had crossed through time and space, slashing through the air with a sharp sword in his hand. The extremely sharp light split the world apart, and the sword tore apart the darkness.
It was sharp, incisive, and indestructible.
Slash!
Chen Zong was not afraid at all. He struck out with his sword. The pitch-black sword light tore through the sky and seemed to merge into the darkness.
The two swordsmen of different eras seemed to be fighting across space with the help of this sword mark.
You're strong, but I'm not weak either.
Yu Nianxin also entered the state of comprehension and fought across space with the ancient swordsmen.
After an unknown period of time, Chen Zong felt that he was discovering more potential in the Third Level of the Sword Manipulation of the Heart. Suddenly, the sword light shattered and dissipated in the darkness as if it had used up all its strength.
In the next moment, Chen Zong and Yu Nianxin both came to their senses. The extremely threatening aura was also restrained.
From the beginning to the end of the comprehension, not much time had passed. It was less than half an hour.
However, Chen Zong and Yu Nianxin gained a lot.
Chen Zong did not improve at all in the realm of the Sword Manipulation. After all, he was already at the Third Level. If he made another breakthrough, he would be at the Fourth Level. It was not easy to make a breakthrough in such a big realm.
Even so, Chen Zong had discovered more potential in the Third Level of the Sword Manipulation of the Heart. Only by fully discovering its potential could he be qualified to break through to the Fourth Level.
Yu Nianxin's Sword Manipulation was at the Third Level. After this comprehension, he was closer to the Small Success. If he had the chance to comprehend it again, he might be able to break through to the Small Success.
Although this comprehension did not directly increase his strength, his potential was enhanced, and his foundation was more solid.
Chen Zong and the other two teamed up and continued to reap benefits. The other Sect's members in the Sky Pillar Upper Province also did the same. They found spiritual herbs and traces left behind by experts. Naturally, they could not avoid a fierce battle with the Ice Soul Evil Spirits.
"Yes, although this Ice Emperor's Secret Realm is a little dangerous, the benefits are even greater. Haha, as long as I leave this place and cultivate in seclusion for a period of time, my strength will definitely be stronger."
Many people were overjoyed after obtaining some benefits.
Three months was too short. Even if they obtained good things, they could not refine and absorb them to strengthen themselves. They could only take them with them first. When they left this place and returned to their Sect, they could refine and absorb them in seclusion. It would definitely bring them great benefits.
The half-step Saint realm!
The reason why these geniuses did not strive to break through to the half-step Saint realm as soon as possible was because they wanted to further strengthen their foundation. They would only break through to the half-step Saint realm when their foundation was strengthened to the extreme. Only then would they be able to soar into the sky.
Chen Zong and the other two joined forces and killed the two Ice Soul Evil Spirits after a fierce battle. Unfortunately, they did not obtain any benefits this time.
However, not long after, the three of them discovered another trace. It was a trace left behind by the experts of the ancient war.
It was not a sword mark, but a saber mark.
Naturally, the saber mark was more suitable for Fu Yunxiao to comprehend. Chen Zong and Yu Nianxin stood guard for him.
Fifteen minutes later, the saber mark shattered and Fu Yunxiao woke up from his comprehension. A trace of extremely sharp saber light flashed in his eyes as if it could cut through the void. It was incomparably frightening.
After comprehending for a while, Fu Yunxiao's potential increased even further.
Although they encountered many dangers, the three of them still managed to survive with their combined strength. Moreover, they also obtained many benefits. If the three of them had traveled separately, it would have been very difficult for them to pass through such dangers.
Time passed by slowly. In the blink of an eye, five days had passed since the group entered the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm.
The Ice Emperor's Secret Realm was very big. The disciples from the various Sect's of the Sky Pillar Upper Province did not encounter each other except for traveling together.
And in these five days, the number of Ice Soul Evil Spirits that were killed was as high as a hundred.
At the center of the front part of the Ice Emperor's Secret Realm, there was a thousand-meter-tall iceberg that was emitting an icy blue brilliance.
Suddenly, a series of cracking sounds could be heard as cracks appeared on the thousand-meter-tall ice mountain. The cracks spread rapidly, and in the next moment, the ice mountain collapsed and shattered.
Swish! Swish!
Swish! Swish! Figures shot out from the shattered iceberg. Earth-shattering roars accompanied by extremely terrifying killing intent swept out like a hurricane, shattering everything in its path.
Ice Soul Evil Spirits!
What appeared after the ice mountain shattered was a large group of Ice Soul Evil Spirits. There were at least several thousand of them.
Every single Ice Soul Evil Spirit was extremely powerful. It would definitely be a disaster if thousands of them appeared at the same time. The direction in which these thousands of Ice Soul Evil Spirits were heading was where the thirty-six people from the Sky Pillar Upper Region had entered.
In addition, thousands of Ice Soul Evil Spirits also charged in different directions. They were all charging in the direction of the Ice Stone Forest. That was the direction where the eight geniuses from the Sky Pillar Upper Province had entered.
Chen Zong used his movement technique to fly quickly. Suddenly, he stopped. His eyes shone brightly as he stared ahead. It was as if he wanted to see through everything in front of him.
Sensing Chen Zong's action and seeing Chen Zong's solemn expression, Fu Yunxiao and Yu Nianxin quickly stopped as well.
"Junior Brother, what's wrong?" The two asked in unison.
"Danger," Chen Zong said solemnly.
Chen Zong's superb senses allowed him to sense a faint trace of danger approaching. Soon, the sense of danger grew stronger and stronger.
"Danger!" Fu Yunxiao and Yu Nianxin's expressions changed slightly. They knew that Chen Zong was very powerful, more powerful than both of them. If even Chen Zong could sense danger, it was definitely a great danger for them too.
At this moment, a series of faint rumbles were heard. The rumbles grew louder and louder, causing the ground to shake violently.
Tens of thousands of meters in front of them, waves of ice and snow constantly surged over like a tsunami. The extremely cold aura seemed to freeze the world and extinguish all life, immediately causing the expressions of Chen Zong and the other two to change drastically, becoming extremely ugly.
"It's the Ice Soul Evil Spirits! A large number of them!" Fu Yunxiao exclaimed in shock.
Dozens of them. At least dozens of them were charging toward them.
They had all experienced the power of the Ice Soul Evil Spirits. It was possible to kill them one on one, but it was not easy. It would be even more difficult if it was one on two. If it was one on three, they might not be a match for them. But now, dozens of Ice Soul Evil Spirits were charging toward them.
"Retreat!" Fu Yunxiao immediately roared.
