Chapter 32: Chapter 32:
“What a strong demonic aura.” Xuan Yi frowned slightly and walked toward the direction of the demonic aura.
This corridor was extremely winding and dark, which made this corridor seem very deep.
Most importantly, his cultivation was suppressed even more with every step he took as if there was a mysterious thing in the corridor that didn’t want them to touch it.
Right now, Xuan Yi’s cultivation strength was suppressed to the third level of the Law Enforcement Realm. Song Qingxin’s cultivation strength was also suppressed.
“Strange, it’s cold here,” Song Qingxin said.
She had Heavenly Flame Physique and thus was very sensitive to the chill.
Right at this moment, an extremely violent aura swept toward them
Hiss!
A ten-meter-long python was coiling in a field of medicinal herbs. Its two vertical pupils were filled with a biting cold aura. Its entire body was covered in azure-colored shining scales that emitted a chilly aura.
This great demon stuck out its tongue with its eyes staring fixedly at a light blue flower in the field.
It was the Ice Spirit Fruit.
“Oh my God… that is…”song Qingxin’s beautiful eyes widened and covered her mouth with her left hand. She pointed at the huge blue demon beast in front of them with her right hand and cried out involuntarily.
“Ice Crystal Black Python,” Xuan Yi said indifferently.
Ice Crystal Black Python was a spirit beast.
There was a fundamental difference between a spirit beast and a demon beast. All spirit beasts were born from the spirit energy between the heaven and the earth, and they were extremely powerful. Some special spirit beasts were born with peak level of strength.
In contrast, ordinary beasts could only gain strength through continuous cultivation and opportunities. Moreover, due to the limit in their physiques, their strength might stop growing after reaching a certain level.
Although this Ice Crystal black Python was not a top-grade spirit beast, it was a powerful one in the Tian Xuan Land.
This kind of demonic beast was born with a strength at the fifth level of the Golden Core Realm. After it became an adult, it could reach the Super Power Realm with ease. If it was lucky, it could even reach the Law Enforcement Realm.
The Ice Crystal Black Python in front of them was only ten meters long. Obviously, it was a young one with the cultivation strength of the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm.
Song Qingxin’s heart raced in fear, but she quickly calmed down.
“Oh my God, you… Are you going to fight with it for this spirit herb?” Song Qingxin asked when she saw that Xuan Yi was staring at the Ice Spirit Fruit.
She thought Xuan Yi’s cultivation strength was the same as hers, probably at the Golden Core Realm since he was so young.
“Yes,” Xuan Yi said lightly.
He found that the Ice Spirit Fruit was about to ripen, and his attention was focused on the light blue spirit herb. Obviously, the Ice Crystal Black Python was also waiting for the Ice Spirit Fruit to ripen.
Seeing Xuan Yi’s quick reply, Song Qingxin was even more panicked.
“According to the records, the Ice Crystal Black Python is a spirit beast. I can’t see through the spiritual energy fluctuations coming from its body, but obviously it’s very dangerous,” Song Qingxin kindly reminded Xuan Yi.
“So what? It’s just a beast. If it dares to fight me, I’ll kill it with a single sword slash!” Xuan Yi said lightly.
What?
Kill it with a single sword slash?
You couldn’t even kill a demonic ape. Now, you’re facing a spirit beast that’s much stronger than it. You’re actually saying you’ll kill it with a single sword slash?
Song Qingxin’s mind was filled with doubts. Right now, she wasn’t thinking about how Xuan Yi could kill this black python. Instead, she was thinking about whether or not he could break its scales.
At this moment, the light blue grass emitted a dark blue light, showing that the Ice Spirit Fruit was ripe.
The Ice Crystal Black Python began to swallow and spit its tongue at a faster rate. It was excited.
However, at this critical moment, a man wearing blue clothes appeared.
There was a pattern of blue cloud embroidered on his chest.
He was from the Ice Cloud Palace, one of top 100 sects of the south domain.
“Humph! Evil creature, you dare to covet this natural treasure!” The man shouted loudly with violent spirit energy emitting from his hand.
The blue spirit energy fluctuations showed that his cultivation strength was at the eighth level of the Golden Core Realm.
“Come on, senior brother Liu, this beast is only at the seventh level of the Golden Core Realm. You can kill it with just one palm strike!”
“That’s right, you are a genius of our Ice Cloud Palace. Fighting above your level is easy for you, let alone killing this beast.”
“That’s right, senior brother Liu Yun is ranked 891st on our south domain’s prodigy list. Among the countless cultivators in the top 100 great sects, there are only a thousand people on the prodigy list. Everyone on the list is a genius cultivator.”
“That’s right. I’m sure senior brother Liu can kill this demon with a single palm strike.” A cultivator from the Ice Cloud Palace patted his chest and said flatteringly.
…
Hearing their words, Xuan Yi was a bit stunned because the senior brother Liu in their mouths and the other cultivators had unstable realms, but they did not have the kind of suppression that Xuan Yi was under.
Xuan Yi was puzzled.
Could it be that the outer region of the mystic realm had suppression for those with poor talent, while the inner area of the mystic realm had a suppression for the highly talented cultivators?
If that was the case, then these people from the Ice Cloud Palace had been accidentally teleported into this cave abode.
And this spiritual beast was obviously talented. It was a natural product of this kind of environment. Not to mention its cultivation strength, its physical strength alone was much greater than that of an ordinary demon beast of the same cultivation level.
However, senior brother Liu, who was hovering in the air, clearly did not know it.
The smile around his mouth and the spirit light shining in his palm indicated that he was extremely confident.
“Attack!”
“Ice Cloud Palm! !”
Under everyone’s expectant gazes, he launched his strongest killing move.
Bang! ! !
With the huge sound, and a large amount of dust blocked everyone’s view.
Liu Yun smiled faintly. No ice-element creature could survive under his Ice Cloud Palm.
That’s right, it was any ice-type creature.
In the Cang Xuan Land, cultivation techniques of different attributes could restrain each other. For example, this Ice Crystal Black Python’s strength was higher than Song Qingxin’s; since their techniques had different attributes, the python’s techniques would have a restraining effect on hers.
If it was a clash between two opponents of the same attributes, the one with greater strength would have a restraining effect on the weaker one.
And Liu Yun’s strength was higher than this demon beast, so in theory, this demon beast was not his match.
Of course, this was only Liu Yun’s idea.
However, the reality was that the Ice Crystal Black Python’s scales were shining since it had absorbed Liu Yun’s ice attribute cultivation strength.
“What?” Liu Yun was full of disbelief.
His companions from the Ice Cloud Palace had the same expression on their faces.
“This… This is impossible. Senior brother Liu Yun is at the eighth level of the Golden Core Realm, how could he not defeat a seventh level Golden Core Demonic demon beast?”
“I know the reason. It’s because our cultivation technique is not strong enough.”
“Bullshit! The Ice Cloud Palm that senior brother Liu used was the most powerful palm technique of our Ice Cloud Palace. It is a high-grade cultivation technique and can defeat cultivators of the same level. In the last south domain genius ranking battle, he has gained his ranking with this cultivation technique.”
In the Tian Xuan Land, cultivation techniques were categorized according to their quality. They were divided into four levels: heaven, earth, black, and yellow. As for those above the heaven grade, the people of Tian Xuan did not know about them.
However, even a low-grade black grade technique was considered a sect treasure in the top 100 sects of the south domain.
At this moment, a square-faced male cultivator said in a deep voice, “Liu Yun, quickly retreat. You can’t defeat this demon!”
“Humph! Yue Zhan, I was the one who saw the Ice Spirit Fruit first. You want me to retreat so you can take this opportunity to seize the spirit fruit, right? Fortunately, the Ice Cloud Palace has obtained the Ice Emperor’s inheritance. Don’t even think about it!” Liu Yun ridiculed.
“Although the Ice Spirit Fruit can refine the body, it can only be activated by a spirit physique. It is not as simple as you think. In addition, the Ice Emperor’s inheritance can only be inherited by the holy son of the sect,” Yue Zhan said calmly.
“Ridiculous! Stay out of my business!” Liu Yun laughed arrogantly. “It’s just a seventh level Golden Core Realm demon beast. Watch carefully. I’ll kill it today.”
Yue Zhan was thirty years old this year, and he was the strongest among the disciples of the Ice Cloud Palace. Now, he was at the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm, and he was sent here by the sect master to protect these disciples.
Yue Zhan frowned. Although he didn’t like unruly Liu Yun, he had to admit that Liu Yun was indeed the number one genius of the Ice Cloud Palace.
At the age of twenty-three, he had broken through to the eighth level of the Golden Core Realm. He was the most understanding disciple in the Ice Cloud Palace except for the holy son of the Ice Cloud Palace.
“Evil creature, prepare to die.” Liu Yun emitted an even more powerful ice spirit energy, forming a body armor covering his entire body. He actually intended to fight head-on with the Ice Crystal Black Python.
Xuan Yi shook his head when he saw this. The most powerful thing about the python was not its cultivation strength, but its incomparably powerful physical body.
And Liu Yun decided to engage in a physical battle with a demonic beast, which indicated that this person had little battle experience. The correct method was to use the advantage of his higher cultivation strength level to engage in a lengthy battle with the demonic beast until it died…
However, Liu Yun had chosen the most foolish method.
Sure enough, Liu Yun was soon struck by the demonic beast’s tail, his face was as pale as a piece of white paper as he spat out blood.
“Alright, I’ll lend you a hand.” Seeing that Liu Yun was no match for the demon beast, Yue Zhan released his spirit energy and strode forward.
On the battlefield, after Yuan Zhan entered the fray, the python gradually retreated covered in blood.
Just as they were locked in a stalemate, Song Qingxin’s nose twitched and she found that the spirit energy of the Ice Spirit Fruit had the effect of suppressing the aphrodisiac pill in her body. Moreover, she had noticed that Xuan Yi was waiting for this fruit to ripen.
She immediately moved to the side of the Ice Spirit Fruit. fre(e)webnov(l).com
“Ha, I got it.” Song Qingxin was delighted. She looked at the fruit in her hand and rushed back to Xuan Yi’s side.
“Who are you? How dared you take things from our Ice Cloud Palace? Are you tired of living?!” Liu Yun shouted.
Although he was seriously injured, his aura grew even stronger.
Yue Zhan also frowned.
While they were fighting fiercely with the demon beasts, a stranger had taken the opportunity to snatch the fruit, which made them very angry.
Liu Yun saw that Xuan Yi and Song Qingxin were only two people and Song Qingxin’s cultivation strength was weak, as if her strength was suppressed by something. Liu Yun got bolder.
“Humph! You have the guts to steal from our Ice Cloud Palace? We’ll hunt you down!” A cold light flashed in Liu Yun’s hand and killed the Ice Crystal Black Python which had been on the verge of death.
“If you hand over the Ice Spirit Fruit, I can let bygones be bygones,” Yue Zhan said in a grave voice.
“That’s right, that’s right. You thieves just stole it while senior brother Yue fought against the Ice Crystal Black Python. You’re cowards!”
“That’s right, you’re trash. We’ll beat you every time we see you in the south domain.”
Xuan Yi narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “Thief? The Sage Mystic realm was created by the ancestor of Our Profound Sword Sect. Logically speaking, all the items in here belong to our Profound Sword Sect. How can you call me a thief?”
“Are you from the Profound Sword Sect?” Yue Zhan’s mind spun rapidly, wondering which genius cultivator of the Profound Sword Sect this person was.
However, Xuan Yi had never participated in the genius ranking battle in the south domain, so Yue Zhan had never seen him.
“The Profound Sword Sect? It has long declined. Right now, it only holds the title of the top 100 in the south domain. When the holy son of our Ice Cloud Palace obtains the Ice Emperor’s inheritance, he will naturally take the first place in this southern domain’s genius ranking. When that time comes, your Profound Sword Sect might not even exist,” Liu Yun said disdainfully.
“My friend from the Profound Sword Sect, you’d better hand it over now and I’ll make sure that my junior brothers won’t make things difficult for you. Otherwise…” Yue Zhan had quickly reviewed in his mind the geniuses from the Profound Sword Sect. Thinking that Xuan Yi wasn’t on the genius list, his voice became harsher.
Xuan Yi’s expression didn’t change. The faint demonic aura in the surroundings grew stronger and stronger.
He hadn’t made a move yet because there was a big fellow underground and he had to protect Song Qingxin. If he made a move, he was afraid that something would happen to this area.
“Humph! Otherwise what?” Song Qingxin placed her hands on her hips and yelled from behind Xuan Yi.
“Otherwise, even immortals can’t save you two ! !”
Liu Yun took a Spirit Energy Restoration Pill and spoke threateningly.
However, as he spoke, an Ice Crystal Black Python that was even more powerful than the previous one broke out from the underground!
It swallowed Liu Yun in one gulp!
