Hearing that, Yue Zhan's breathing became heavier.
"Ahem, senior... This matter concerns the life and death of the Ice Cloud Palace. I hope you can understand..." Yue Zhan stammered. Although his tone was weak, his eyes were firm.
Eh?
Xuan Yi's eyes turned sharp, as if a sword light flashed in them.
"Don't try my patience. If you don't tell me, you'll die!" Xuan Yi's voice was indifferent, but in the ears of the Ice Cloud Palace cultivators, it was like a demon's whisper.
The vast sword energy wrapped around Yue Zhan. With just a thought from Xuan Yi, Yue Zhan would be crushed into pieces.
Yue Zhan was shocked by Xuan Yi's sword energy. His heart sank, and he wondered who on earth was this guy from the south domain's Profound Sword Sect.
He now truly realized how powerful Xuan Yi was. He also discovered that the gap between their realms was as insurmountable as the Heavenly Abyss!
If Xuan Yi was a cultivator slightly stronger than him, Yue Zhan would fight to death together with his companions.
However, before this powerful cultivator, he didn't have a single thought to resist.
Moreover, in the boundless sword energy that attacked him, he felt the breath of death that made even his soul tremble.
He looked at the terrified disciples beside him and smiled bitterly in his heart. These disciples were the most talented people in the Ice Cloud Palace. Otherwise, they wouldn't have participated in the Sage Mystic Realm this time.
If they couldn't even protect themselves, how could protect the secret of the inheritance of the sect.
He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Senior, maybe you don't know it, but a thousand years ago, the Ice Cloud Palace and the Profound Sword Sect had the same origin.
"Sage Li and the founding patriarch of my sect had both visited an ancient holy land. Sage Li got the inheritance of sword cultivation, while the first Master of the Ice Cloud Palace, Leng Tianhan, understood a trace of the Ice Emperor's inheritance."
Just a trace of the Ice Emperor's inheritance had created the Ice Cloud palace, one of the top 100 sects in the south domain, which showed how powerful the inheritance of the Ice Emperor was.
Listening to him, Xuan Yi's brows gradually relaxed.
According to his research in the forbidden area of the Profound Sword Sect, he knew Yue Zhan told the truth. It was just that the forbidden area only had information about the establishment of the Ice Cloud Palace and did not have the inheritance of the Ice Emperor.
Thus, he asked, "Tell me everything you know about the Ice Emperor's inheritance. If you dare to lie to me, I'll kill all the cultivators from the Ice Cloud Palace in this place."
"Yes, yes, yes. How dare I lie to you?" Yue Zhan's face was pale and his mouth was dry. He said helplessly, "Before Palace Master Leng died, he knew that he couldn't absorb all of the trace of the Ice Emperor's inheritance, so he sealed it in the forbidden zone of the palace. He hoped that some outstanding disciples of the sect could inherit it and recreate the glory of the ancient emperor.
"However, the Ice Emperor's inheritance requires a strong bloodline to inherit it. That's why we wanted the Ice Spirit Fruit so much. Otherwise, if I knew that this item was what senior needed, I wouldn't have dared to covet it."
Xuan Yi frowned slightly, mulling over Yue Zhan's words.
"Humph! Do you think you can fool me?"
The Ice Spirit Fruit could strengthen one's physique, but it couldn't remodeling it, nor could it activate the Ice Emperor's inheritance.
If this thing was so good, then the Ice Cloud Palace wouldn't have waited for thousands of years to absorb the ice emperor's inheritance.
"No, no. Everything I said is true." Sensing the sword energy around him became stronger, Yue Zhan hurriedly knelt down and said with a trembling voice, "This... The palace master once said that the holy son must take the Ice Spirit Fruit to have a chance of inheriting it."
Xuan Yi narrowed his eyes. His disciple Lin Yingxue was born with an ice physique, but in order to improve her qi and blood power, she had used countless medicinal baths. Only when she had a foundation could she use the Ice Spirit Fruit.
With this in mind, Xuan Yi decided to make a trip to the Ice Cloud Palace after the expedition was over.
At this moment, Song Qingxin tugged at his robe and pointed at a cultivator in the distance, saying, "Look over there."
Xuan Yi looked over and found the spirit energy in that place was very dense. There was a kind of array formation that was gathering spirit energy!
If his guess was right, Li Wandao's medicinal garden was nearby.
This cave abode had been in concealment for a thousand years, so it was likely that there were many good items hidden in here. Nourished by such rich spirit energy, there might be some top grade spirit herbs.
He nodded and engulfed Song Qingxin with his spirit energy. Then he flew over with her.
As he flew, law symbols flickered around his body continuously.
"Those are...! ! Law symbols... ! He's a master of the Law Enforcement Realm!"
"He has reached Law Enforcement Realm at such a young age. It's truly terrifying!"
...
Hearing the discussions of the sect disciples, Yue Zhan looked over and saw the law symbols around Xuan Yi flickering continuously. He was stunned.
His eyes were wide open. Previously, he had already raised Xuan Yi's strength to a terrifying height in his heart, but he had still underestimated it.
He felt depressed at first but then felt lucky.
They were extremely lucky to be able to survive under the pressure of a Law Enforcement Realm cultivator. When they saw Xuan Yi heading towards the spirit herb zone, they didn't dare to follow him and decided to go out to try their luck.
Song Qingxin, who was flying together with Xuan Yi, was also amazed.
Her beautiful eyes were bright with amazement.
Previously, when she was in the outer area, she had thought that Xuan Yi was a high level Golden Core cultivator. However, after he killed the Ice Crystal Black Python with a divine ability, she thought he was a Divine Power Realm cultivator. Now that he took her flying through the void and displayed the strength of the Law Enforcement Realm, she was dumbfounded.
She swallowed with difficulty and asked, "You... What exactly is your realm?"
"Fifth level of the Law Enforcement Realm," Xuan Yi said lightly.
Song Qingxin was so shocked that she did not dare to hold Xuan Yi's hand anymore.
The fifth level of the Law Enforcement Realm was enough to make him an elder in a sect.
Her amazement grew stronger. She had thought that even if Xuan Yi was in the Law Enforcement Realm, he should be at the first to third level of the realm. However, Xuan Yi's strength was actually at the fifth level, which was the middle level of the realm!
He looked only a few years older than her, but his talent was so unbelievable. She had entered the Mid Land genius list after reaching the Golden Core Realm at 16. The so-called geniuses on the Tian Xuan Land would probably be ashamed of their inferiority when they faced Xuan Yi.
They soon arrived at the spirit herb garden. The rich herbal fragrance made him happy, but then he frowned.
He discovered that the suppression on his cultivation strength had grown stronger in this place, and he was now at the peak stage of the Divine Power Realm.
It was obvious Li Wendao had put special attention on this place. The powerful restriction not only suppressed Xuan Yi's cultivation strength, but it also kept demon beasts from entering this zone which was thousands of miles wide.
Xuan Yi sized up this place, and was incomparably amazed by Li Wendao's abilities.
This spirit herb garden was incomparably vast. One couldn't see the end of it.
The most important thing was that herbs with different and even contradictory attributes could grow together in here.
Not only did they not counteract each other's medicinal effects, but they grew better due to the competitive atmosphere. Such a thing was against the laws of nature.
Xuan Yi walked in the herb garden and studied the herbs, looking overjoyed.
Fire Cloud Grass, Yin Essence Flower, Demon Cave Vine, Sky Spirit Fruit, Spirit Welcoming Flower, Xuan Green Vine, Purple Jade Gourd Tree, Heavenly Thunder Wood, Ice Frost Grass, Life Fruit...
