Wang Jian, Zhuo Qing, and the others geniuses looked desperate. They were furious at the cultivators of the Qin Dynasty. Now, the Tianci Dynasty would take care of Lin Feng, which meant they wouldn't be able to do anything anymore. They could only forget about Lin Feng's precious treasures.
They were all determined people. So when they saw they couldn't obtain Lin Feng's treasures anymore, they went back to the historical remains. The chained cultivators had already calmed down. Lin Feng had managed to find Saints' treasures, so they could probably do the same, especially since there were many Saints in the old days.
There weren't just two Saints, there were many others, and maybe that they could find other Saints' historical remains.
Not just the members of the Tianci Dynasty, other people also thought it was a pity that Prince Yan had died… but all in all, people didn't really care.
Prince Yan was extremely strong, but Lin Feng had studied an incredible ancient technique which could oppress the earth and sky. He had crushed Prince Yan alive. They wanted to find their own historical remains even more!
The Holy Emperors were still arguing over Saint Tianhun.
——
As all this was going on, three people arrived in an ice world. That ice world was hidden under the ground. There was a small path in a valley which leading here, Lang Ye and Hou Qing Lin had found the place accidentally. After Lin Feng had been chased far away. Meng Qing, Lang Ye and Hou Qing Lin had separated.
In the historical remains, Lang Ye and Hou Qing Lin encountered Chu Chun Qiu. Chu Chun Qiu had attacked Hou Qing Lin once, therefore, he didn't mind attacking him a second time. Besides, he also wanted to attack Lang Ye, who had rescued Hou Qing Lin the previous time. Lang Ye and Hou Qing Lin, if they joined hands, were extremely dangerous. However, Chu Chun Qiu was sly. Chu Chun Qiu had managed to win against Ying Cheng before he had broken through to the Di Qi layer. Now, Chu Chun Qiu was one of the strongest geniuses you could find in the region.
He chased them for a while and the two cultivators accidentally ended up there. They could see a chained cultivator in the ice world.
At that moment, Lang Ye, Hou Qing Lin and Chu Chun Qiu were shivering because of the cold, and starting to freeze. They kept releasing powerful energies to protect themselves. As they ran forwards, the sensation was getting worse. It was more and more difficult to move forwards.
"Chu Chun Qiu, if you attack us again, we don't mind freezing to death here with you. We'll see if anyone is lucky enough to escape!" declared Lang Ye icily. Chu Chun Qiu glanced at Hou Qing Lin and Lang Ye aggressively and then gazed into the distance. He looked determined.
Around the three cultivators, there were many human silhouettes, however, they were all frozen corpses. Some people's eyes were still open, from the look in their eyes, one could guess that they had begged for their lives before dying.
Those people had died a hundred years before, or two hundred, or even more for some of them. Being able to come to the historical remains was a good opportunity but those people had been unlucky.
In front of them, there was a gigantic silhouette in chains. The man within looked as sharp as a sword. His eyes were terrifying. He looked at the three people mockingly. Every hundred years, some people came and in the end they died. Even though he didn't look happy, he was actually happy to see people.
Chu Chun Qiu and the two others noticed that that person was looking at them as if they were interesting little insects, but they didn't mind. They even continued running forwards. If they were careless, that cultivator could probably kill them, but they didn't give up.
In front of the gigantic chained cultivator, there was a word carved in the snow. Each letter contained a terrifying strength. As long as those letters were there, the ice Qi of this area couldn't expand.
Even though many years had passed, the letters still contained a terrifying strength. If they managed to grab those words, they'd obtain that incredible strength.
Chu Chun Qiu and the two others struggled to move forwards when they saw those letters, they wanted them.
"Seven more steps and we'll be there." Lang Ye and Hou Qing Lin were moving shoulder to shoulder. Chu Chun Qiu had made one step more than them. He had six more steps to go, but it was extremely difficult.
"A Saint carved those letters using his life. If you manage to get them, you'll obtain that spirit and marrow strength," said the chained cultivator calmly. He was trying to tempt them even more.
Many geniuses had died when only seven steps were left. The corpses around them were the proof. Sometimes, people managed to make it almost to the end, one step was left, and then they died.
Chu Chun Qiu was extremely determined. At that moment, he looked like a blinding sun. He had an aura of Will around him. The ice around him started breaking. Nothing could prevent him from doing what he wanted.
The letters contained a terrifying strength. That strength was very useful for all of them. They really wanted it.
Chu Chun Qiu took another step, the ground crackled.
Lang Ye was releasing world lights, which absorbed the ice and kept him relatively warm at the same time. Hou Qing Lin was surrounded by reincarnation lights. His sword kept cutting through the ice around him. The three people continued walking forwards, they were drawing ever closer to the letters. Chu Chun Qiu was two steps away and stopped in the face of the terrifying pressure. Lang Ye and Hou Qing Lin were four steps away from the letters. Their souls and veins seemed like they were going to freeze. If they weren't careful, they could die!
Many geniuses had missed opportunities in that world, maybe they would miss a great opportunity here…
"Lang Ye, he'll arrive before us. I will condense my full strength to open the way for you, when you obtain the incantation, protect us with your world coffin," Hou Qing Lin said to Lang Ye.
"Isn't it too dangerous? If I obtain the incantation and something unexpected happens, it could get dangerous."
"Sometimes, we have to take risks!"
When Lang Ye heard that, his heart twitched and he said to Hou Qing Lin telepathically, "Alright, since you want to try and gamble, let's do it!"
At that moment, Chu Chun Qiu had the Will of a king, an ancient king had appeared at his back. One more step and he'd be one step away from the incantation. The chained cultivator was amused as he looked on.
At the same time, Hou Qing Lin and Lang Ye ground their teeth and continued walking forwards. They were three steps away.
Chu Chun Qiu looked crazed and kept shouting furiously. His hair was fluttering in the wind. He really considered himself a king!
Hou Qing Lin and Lang Ye took another step forward. Hou Qing Lin released terrifying reincarnation sword energies which could absorb anything. A strong wind started blowing, and the ice around them broke apart.
Hou Qing Lin kept releasing energies to open the way for Lang Ye and make things easier for him so Lang Ye could move easier. They were catching up with Chu Chun Qiu, one more step! But Chu Chun Qiu started his last step…
"Argh!" Lang Ye shouted furiously. World lights dashed to the skies, the space around them became distorted. Chu Chun Qiu was only half a step away from the letters, and at the same time, Hou Qing Lin's body froze and he turned into a statue.
"Die!" Chu Chun Qiu shouted furiously and released energies towards Lang Ye. However, Lang Ye released hand imprints which moved towards the letters, like he wanted to destroy everything. Crackling sounds spread in the air, the letters were drawn towards Hou Qing Lin and penetrated into him. As they did so, Chu Chun Qiu was hurled away as blood splashed.
Lang Ye moved again. Nine lights appeared around him. He walked up beside Hou Qing Lin and broke the ice around him. Then, his world coffin appeared and he took Hou Qing Lin away. If he had used the world coffin before, it would have been easier to move forwards, but getting out of the coffin right before the letters could have been extremely dangerous, the ice strength could have crashed down and killed him!
"You three are interesting," said the chained cultivator indifferently.
Chu Chun Qiu shouted furiously, "Lang Ye, Hou Qing Lin, I will kill you!"
Lang Ye had taken the incantation even though he had almost reached it, and now he was even injured. What a humiliation! He had to absorb their wills!
