Many of the cultivators sucked in a breath of cold air at the sight of this frightening scene. Their legs gave way, and they knelt on the ground, trembling all over. If it weren't for the bone-piercing chill assaulting them from all directions, many of them would've fainted on the spot.
At that moment, the only sound left in the entire space of ice and snow was the howling of the storm. It was like a low whimper that reverberated around everyone. There was no other sound apart from that.
Five figures stood respectfully around Hayashikawa's frozen throne. They were the Five Spirit Elders from the Elder's Altar.
At that moment, everyone finally realized that that man had returned!
"Everyone should know what I'm going to say at this Floating Spirit Meeting, right?" Hayashikawa's indifferent voice rang out, causing all of the cultivators below to tremble. However, no one dared to speak.
"I didn't want to do anything at first, but it's a pity that some people's actions have forced me to take action!" Hayashikawa continued, "The people sealed in my throne aren't dead yet. I just want them to cool off and reflect on their actions!"
Hayashikawa hadn't killed these people. He'd only used the extreme cold to trap them in ice. The matter of the Floating Spirit Region was essentially due to his negligence. There was no need for him to commit a large-scale massacre over such a small matter. Doing so wouldn't benefit Hayashikawa or the Floating Spirit Region.
He was just punishing the chickens to warn the monkeys. What he was doing now would also achieve his goal. In fact, it would be even more intimidating than killing these people.
"The matters of the Floating Spirit Region will still be under the jurisdiction of the Floating Spirit Hall. If you're not satisfied, you can come and find me at any time. If I find out that someone's playing tricks behind my back again, don't blame me for not holding back!" As soon as Hayashikawa finished speaking, the pressure of a Body Integration Stage cultivator swept across the entire area. A terrifying cold wind swept past, and everyone felt an unprecedented pressure. The bone-piercing chill was something that none of them would be able to forget for the rest of their lives.
In the next instant, everyone who had been kneeling in the space of ice and snow returned to the plaza of the Floating Spirit Hall. It was as if nothing had happened.
"An illusion technique?"
When everyone realized that they had returned to the square, their first reaction was that they had just been hit by an illusion. After all, Blue Dragon's illusion was one of his signature moves.
However, someone soon realized that something was wrong. That was because almost everyone present was covered in ice shards. That bone-piercing chill was still lingering around them, making it hard for them to believe that everything that had just happened was an illusion.
As for the cultivators above the Void Refining Stage, their faces were even more unsightly. They had already come into contact with the laws, so they knew very well that all of them had been transferred to a completely unfamiliar space in an instant. The laws in that place were completely different from those in the Cultivation World. This was definitely not something that could be explained by illusions.
"What a terrifying Blue Dragon!" The Celestial Sect's Sect Master and the others wiped off the cold sweat on their foreheads that had turned into ice dregs and muttered to themselves in horror.
On the plaza, the five thousand cultivators were still in shock. The noise from before had all disappeared, and most of them had ugly expressions on their faces. Only a few people who had always supported the Floating Spirit Hall revealed excited smiles, because the return of the Blue Dragon meant that the Floating Spirit Hall would rise again, and their status would rise as well.
In the ice and snow space.
Hayashikawa's gaze swept over the cultivators sealed in ice on the thrones, and finally looked at the Five Spirit Elders.
"You guys are the most familiar with the jurisdiction of the Floating Spirit Region, and are also the most suitable. I will find a way to remove the curse of the Elder's Altar as soon as possible. It won't be long before you guys can walk freely between heaven and earth!" Hayashikawa said to the five people.
"Many thanks, Hall Master!" The five people replied in unison.
"Let's go! Let's go to the Elder's Altar! " Hayashikawa didn't say anything superfluous, and directly used the Netherworld Biryozaka to bring the five people into the depths of the Elder's Altar.
At this moment, the members of the Akatsuki organization and the elite cultivators of the Sky Yi Sword Sect were all studying this ancient altar. Many of the Floating Spirit Region's secrets were in this altar, and the reason why Ni Huanzhi and the others were able to reincarnate infinitely was also because of this altar.
Before Hayashikawa left the Nanming Continent for the Nakagawa, he came to the Floating Spirit Region once to inject Immortal Qi into the Celestial Spirit Pavilion, and also did his best to remove some of the restrictions on the Elder's Altar, so that the Five Spirit Elders could leave the altar for three to four days. However, after Hayashikawa left, this time kept shortening, until the Five Spirit Elders were almost completely unable to leave the Elder's Altar, which led to the five sects taking over the Floating Spirit Hall.
Speaking of which, Hayashikawa's modification of the Elder's Altar was not on point, and not only did it not help, it even made things more complicated. However, at that time, Hayashikawa was only at the Immortal Transformation stage, and his ability was indeed limited. However, this time was different. Not only had his cultivation reached the Fusion stage, but he also brought the members of the Akatsuki and the Sky Yi Sword Sect. With the help of so many people, the Elder's Altar could no longer hinder them.
"This altar is indeed very magical. I have finally witnessed the uncanny workmanship of nature!"
Mu Bai said with a smile when he saw Hayashikawa coming over.
He didn't know much about formations, but the people he brought with him were more familiar with formations, and now they were carefully studying it. Coupled with the people of the Akatsuki, the problem didn't seem difficult to solve.
"At that time, the Ninth Heaven Mysterious Jade was in the depths of this altar. If I didn't take away this Immortal Artifact, the formation of the Elder's Altar wouldn't be so easy to break!" Hayashikawa said with a chuckle.
"Blue Dragon is right. This formation is missing a core, so we have to shrink the scope to reduce the loss of energy. This should be the key reason why the Five Spirit Elders can't leave the Elder's Altar. However, because the formation is missing the core, it won't be too troublesome for us to break it. Give me another two to three days, and I should be able to remove the restrictions of the Elder's Altar!"
The one who spoke was a formation genius of the Sky Yi Sword Sect, named Song Ge. Hayashikawa knew a little about him.
"Then I'll have to trouble you!"
After handing over the matter here to Song Ge, Hayashikawa and other people who weren't interested in formations turned around and left.
Three days later, the entire Elder's Altar shook with a loud bang, and the restrictions on the movements of the Five Spirit Elders were completely broken. From now on, Ni Huanzhi and the other four didn't have to stay in this cage-like altar.
"From now on, no one on this continent can shake the rule of the Floating Spirit Palace!" Hayashikawa said with a chuckle. The cultivation of the Five Spirit Elders was already at the Peak of Void Refining stage. After all, they couldn't go out, so they could only cultivate in peace, and the results were very remarkable.
After the matter of the Floating Spirit Region was almost settled, Jade Maiden received news from the Dayin Tower that the passage between Nakagawa and the Southern Ming Continent was about to be opened!
"It's time to go back!"
Netherworld was already directly connected to the Southern Ming Continent from Yokohama, so returning had become easy.
