Chapter 863: Chapter 861: Ice Divine Beast
Xiang Tian hurriedly leaned over to him, then rubbed his hands together and said, "Previously, the situation appeared like that, wasn’t it because of you?"
"With your whereabouts unknown, how could the two of us calm down?"
Luo Xue quickly walked over and nodded in agreement.
Wang Zhan showed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and shook his head, saying, "What?"
"You don’t work hard and blame it on me?"
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue smiled awkwardly.
"Alright."
Wang Zhan waved at them before continuing, "The Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower can be considered a privilege given to us by Xuan Yu, let it be his way of compensating us."
"However, once you enter it, you two absolutely must not idle away your time."
"After all, most disciples in the Profound Ice Pavilion don’t even have the opportunity to enter. If you still don’t work hard, my face won’t hold up."
In fact, Wang Zhan knew very well that wherever you go, if you want to earn respect, you must possess absolute strength.
In the future, the three of them would still form their own Star Domain.
They can’t continue being lazy like this.
On the side, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue nodded heavily and almost in unison said, "Brother Wang, rest assured, we absolutely won’t disappoint you."
Wang Zhan rolled his eyes at them and smiled helplessly.
He couldn’t do anything with these two lively ones.
Meanwhile, Xuan Yu had already returned to the room.
However, Qiu Yinshan was standing by the window with his back to him, and upon hearing footsteps, Qiu Yinshan spoke lightly, "Have Wang Zhan and the others entered the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower?"
"Yes."
Xuan Yu smiled and said, "Wasn’t it what you instructed?"
"Right."
"But the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower is a treasure land in the Profound Ice Pavilion. The sudden entry of Wang Zhan and others for cultivation, I fear many disciples would not accept it, so..."
Qiu Yinshan revealed a faint smile at the corner of his mouth and said again, "Find a way to lead Wang Zhan and the others down to the bottom."
"To the bottom?"
Beside him, Xuan Yu’s expression suddenly turned ugly, and he frowned, saying, "If I remember correctly, the Ice Divine Beast is at the bottom layer."
"Even the Domain Master isn’t a match for the Ice Divine Beast, and now you want Wang Zhan and the others to go down, isn’t that..."
Xuan Yu didn’t dare continue.
But everyone knew what he meant.
Qiu Yinshan waved his hand with a faint smile, then said, "It’s not as serious as you think."
"Have you ever considered why Wang Zhan managed to escape from Huo Yuan?"
Xuan Yu shook his head.
"In my view, there are only two possibilities."
Qiu Yinshan spoke again, "Firstly, either Huo Yuan released Wang Zhan deliberately, and Wang Zhan reached some agreement with Huo Yuan."
"If not for this reason, then there’s only one possibility, Wang Zhan has his own trump card to aid him in escaping."
"So regardless of which, Wang Zhan must make contact with the Ice Divine Beast."
"If he can’t escape safely, it proves there are unspeakable secrets between Wang Zhan and Huo Yuan."
"He must die too."
Xuan Yu’s face turned extremely ugly, he no longer thought that Qiu Yinshan was sincerely trying to recruit Wang Zhan, but it turns out, it was all his own overthinking.
How ridiculous...
Seeing Xuan Yu not moving, Qiu Yinshan impatiently said, "What are you thinking about?"
"Hurry up and follow my intentions."
"Now, the Domain Master is still in seclusion, all matters need to be handled with caution, I will not allow anyone to become an uncontrollable factor."
"Nor can anyone threaten the existence of the Profound Ice Pavilion."
Higher rank suppresses people.
Xuan Yu certainly had no say.
He glanced at Qiu Yinshan a couple of times before heading towards the door.
Qiu Yinshan watched his back with a mocking smile and coldly huffed, then said lightly, "Mercy of a woman will never achieve great things."
"After training you for so long, how do you still not understand this reasoning?"
At the same time, Xuan Yu also made his way toward the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower.
In front of the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower.
Wang Zhan and the others were just about to enter when a voice came from behind.
Wang Zhan stopped and saw Xuan Yu, then smiled and said, "Judging by your appearance, could it be you also want to enter the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower?"
"Of course."
Xuan Yu tried to suppress his inner emotions and not let them show, then smiled and said, "The difference in strength between us is not much. I also worry that your arrival might take my position, so naturally, I need to keep up with your pace. You wouldn’t mind me being so straightforward, would you?"
Wang Zhan shrugged, shaking his head indifferently and said, "Don’t worry, I’m not interested in these things."
"Besides, I won’t be staying in the Profound Ice Pavilion for too long."
Xuan Yu nodded with a smile and then followed in Wang Zhan’s footsteps.
In the blink of an eye, the four of them had already entered the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower.
Instantly, they felt the cold air coming from all directions.
Luo Xue instinctively hugged her shoulders and, after glancing at Xuan Yu, quickly asked, "Why is it so cold in here?"
"It should be because the Spiritual Energy here has reached a certain point, causing the environment to be somewhat different from the outside. Naturally, the temperature can’t be compared to outside."
"It’s normal to feel a bit uncomfortable at first, please bear with it."
Wang Zhan shook his head, then smiled and said, "With such a good place for cultivation, who cares about such things?"
"Relax, you don’t need to worry about us. If they can’t withstand it, they’ll step out immediately."
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue exchanged a smile, and then Xiang Tian firmly said, "Even if the sky falls down, the two of us will never retreat, of course, as long as you don’t leave."
Xuan Yu stood by, looking at them with envy.
Although there were many people in the Profound Ice Pavilion, he’d never seen a friendship like Wang Zhan and the others had.
They were about to go deeper inside when Xuan Yu stopped them.
Beside him, Xiang Tian’s face suddenly turned unpleasant, and he bluntly asked, "What do you mean by this?"
"Are you planning to go back on your word?"
"If you don’t want us to enter the Eight Directions Mysterious Ice Tower, we can just leave now."
Wang Zhan glared at Xiang Tian before he stopped speaking.
And Xuan Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "No, no, no."
"Since I promised to take you in, I won’t easily go back on my word. I stopped you because the area ahead is not something you can enter."
Ha...
Xiang Tian let out a cold laugh and then said irritably, "So, there is still some distinction? It seems that place is reserved for your core disciples in the Profound Ice Pavilion, right?"
"In that case, I won’t be a bother, staying here is fine."
Seeing their misunderstanding, Xuan Yu quickly explained, "It’s not what you think. Although this area is considered the core area, it isn’t accessible to just anyone. It’s not ranked by level but distinguished by one’s own strength."
As he spoke, Xuan Yu’s gaze fell on Wang Zhan, "I suppose your two friends might not believe me, so why don’t you go in and feel it for yourself and see what I mean?"
Wang Zhan nodded and curiously headed inside.
Just as he stepped into that area, he instantly felt a very strange sensation.
He felt the surrounding Spiritual Power continuously rushing into his body, like strong winds.
In his mind, suddenly, the voice of the Sword Spirit came.
"This place is quite nice."
"I can sense that there’s a big guy hidden deep inside. If you can subdue him and take his Demon Core, I estimate I could return to peak condition."
Wang Zhan’s eyes lit up, "Alright then."
"As long as it’s beneficial to you, I won’t back down."
The Sword Spirit gratefully said, "Master, but you still need to be careful, that big guy inside even gives me a sense of danger, combined with the low temperature here, I might know what’s hiding inside."
"What?"
Know your enemy and yourself, you’ll emerge victorious in many battles.
Wang Zhan naturally wanted to understand the mystery within.
Beside him, the Sword Spirit smiled and said, "If I’m not mistaken, it should be the Ice Divine Beast."
"What’s that?"
Wang Zhan was hearing the name Ice Divine Beast for the first time.
The Sword Spirit gravely said, "The Ice Divine Beast is quite a powerful entity. It’s said that during its peak, it could rival the Four Sacred Beasts, with extremely formidable power."
"However, long ago, the Ice Divine Beast disappeared completely, I didn’t expect such profound heritage in the Profound Ice Pavilion, but something doesn’t add up..."
After a while, the Sword Spirit continued, "How could an Ancient Divine Beast like the Ice Divine Beast be imprisoned in any place?"
"Even if it preferred the temperature of this Star Domain, it should reign as king, not be controlled by someone..."
"It seems the master of this Profound Ice Pavilion really has some skills."
"In the future, we need to be more wary of him."
Wang Zhan nodded.
He was certainly aware of the rules on the Star War Battlefield.
Although they were in the Profound Ice Pavilion now, he didn’t really consider anyone here as his ally.
Even Xuan Yu was just an ordinary friend.
Wang Zhan even held reservations towards him.
The Sword Spirit spoke again, "In any case, let’s take it step by step, but if you really can deal with the Ice Divine Beast, it would be a great benefit to me, but it’s not necessary to risk it for my sake."
Wang Zhan nodded with a smile, about to speak when he heard a shout from behind.
"Brother Wang, how’s the situation inside?"
