Chapter 418: Chapter 424 Come on, let’s refine this? (Fifth update)
Boom!
Terrifying waves of energy rolled and tossed, frantic forces surging in all directions, causing the surrounding earth to tremble.
Everyone was taken aback, their gazes all drawn towards the Ice Cave Ruins. Liang Lie’s face changed repeatedly as he stared at the ruins and asked, “Didn’t the Ice Cave get destroyed? How can such terrifying power erupt from it?” Palace Master Liu and Peak Master Mo were also shaken. They laughed and noted, “Yang Zhen has not come out yet!”
Liang Lie scoffed, “Peak Master Mo, you sure have immense faith in that brat, Yang Zhen. A Practitioner who just passed the Tribulation Crossing Period surviving such a violent destruction is simply… What is that?” All present wore stunned expressions as they looked towards the ruins. Amidst the raging waves, chunks of earth and rocks were flying, and ice was scattering in all directions. Glorious blue lights shone brilliantly and slowly lifted a stunningly beautiful ice palace.
“It’s the ice palace!”
“My God, how is it possible? Wasn’t the ice palace destroyed?”
“Yang Zhen, Yang Zhen entered the ice palace last. Could it be he who lifted the ice palace to the surface?”
Everyone there watched in shock as the ice palace slowly rose. They were caught off guard when, after the ice palace rose from the ground, it didn’t stop but slowly ascended into mid-air.
“Impossible!”
Old Ghost Hei and the others looked drastically changed, and even Liang Lie looked bewildered.
This palace, it was actually airborne!
As everyone witnessed the ice palace slowly hovering in the air, they were stunned speechless, visibly in disbelief.
How much energy was needed to lift such a colossal structure into the air?
Liang Lie, his eyes blank, suddenly shuddered and murmured, “Could it be… could it be…”
-Could it be that this ice palace is not an ordinary structure, but an imperial residence refined by a powerful being?”
“This can’t be! Who could possibly refine such a terrifying traveling palace?”
Hearing the conjecture droning from the Tribulation Crossing Period
Practitioners, a speculative expression flashed across Liang Lie’s eyes. He made no attempt to hide his covetous expression.
Peak Master Mo frowned and warned, “Sect Master Liang, I advise you to curb your ambitions. This ice palace was refined by the Sky Crying Great Saint. To possess this ice palace, it’s almost impossible.
Palace Master Liu cast Peak Master Mo a strange look, suddenly understanding why Peak Master Mo would say such a thing.
In reality, not one of them knew whether the ice palace had ever been refined by anyone, let alone whether it had been refined by Sky Crying Great Saint. The reemergence of the ice palace was undoubtedly related to Yang Zhen. Peak Master Mo presumably voiced his concerns because he was afraid that Liang Lie, a stubborn man, couldn’t suppress his inner greed and would attempt to seize it, thereby disrupting Yang Zhen’s refinement of the Void Power.
Although Peak Master Mo, like Palace Master Liu, didn’t really believe that Yang Zhen would succeed, if Liang Lie tried to seize the ice palace at this moment, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble for Yang Zhen.
Palace Master Liu glanced at the maze-like ice palace in the sky. He was about to say something but suddenly changed his expression. Before he could react, he saw a figure leap into the air, charging towards the ice palace.
“Liang Lie, you dare!”
Palace Master Liu roared, a terrifying burst of True Essence erupting from him, ready to charge at Liang Lie.
Peak Master Mo quickly warned, “Brother Liu, hold on!”
“What?” Palace Master Liu looked at Peak Master Mo in confusion, only to see Peak Master Mo wearing a hesitant look and gazing at Hua Youyue.
Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er were both closely related to Yang Zhen. Currently holding Moon Shadow and Sun Shadow respectively – two of the most powerful sacred weapons – they were both staring solemnly at Liang Lie but made no move to rush him, seemingly in no hurry.
Perhaps sensing the surge of True Essence from Palace Master Liu, both women turned their heads and shook them at him.
“This… ladies, Liang Lie is extremely cunning. I’m afraid he might affect Yang
Zhen in some way.”
Hua Youyue laughed lightly and said, “Palace Master Liu, Yang Zhen is not inside the ice palace.”
“No?” Palace Master Liu blinked and exchanged glances with Peak Master Mo.
Mo Xueling suddenly pointed to the back of the ice palace and said, “Look quickly!”
Everyone’s hearts tightened as they looked in the direction Mo Xueling was pointing, and they were immediately taken aback.
Yang Zhen was at the front of the back of the ice palace, knocking and hitting it as if he was offering a sacrifice, it looked like he was checking something, but it was unclear what he was doing.
Liang Lie laughed loudly without noticing Yang Zhen, he came to the front of the ice palace and turned to Palace Master Liu and Peak Master Mo and said, “Since both of you are not interested in such a rare ice palace, let me, Liang, refine this treasure!”
Palace Master Liu and Peak Master Mo looked at each other and saw each other’s faces were strange, they both turned their heads to look at Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen poked his head out from behind the ice palace and looked at Liang Lie with a blank face, “Who, that laughing guy, yes, I’m talking about you, what are you doing?”
Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s words, everyone was blank and many burst out laughing.
Although Liang Lie was arrogant and stubborn, his strength was absolutely top-notch in Northern Island, as a sect master, he was worshiped on regular days, he had never been treated like this before.
The laughing guy?
That bastard Yang Zhen, he could infuriate someone to death with just a few words.
Especially for those Practitioners who could see Liang Lie’s dumbfounded expression, they didn’t want to laugh, but they couldn’t help it, they snickered out loud.
Liang Lie recovered from his stupor, an enraged expression suddenly appeared on his face, just as he was about to speak, a strange voice came into his ears, “Damn it, kid, hurry up, you’re about to successfully refine this ice palace, why are you bothering with an idiot?”
The sly cat poked its head out from behind Yang Zhen, looked up and down at Liang Lie, and said with a sneer to Liang Lie who was confused, “Look at this idiot, see his stupid face, is he dumb or what?”
“Dumb!” Sao Jing added fuel to the fire from behind the sly cat.
“Bastard!”
Boom—!
A violent surge of True Essence suddenly erupted from Liang Lie, the sky was filled with dark energy, and numerous lightning bolts surged out, rushing towards Yang Zhen.
“Damn!” The sly cat’s face changed drastically, he quickly hid behind Yang Zhen, “Kid, watch out, the idiot’s angry!”
Yang Zhen’s face also changed, a dark energy gushed out of the Great Missing Sword in his hand, it transformed into a dragon, roaring and rushing towards Liang Lie.
“Humph”‘ Liang Lie snorted coldly, and disdainfully said, “Just with your level of cultivation, you think you can refine the ice palace, it’s simply delusional, die!”
Boom boom boom!
Under the wild dance of the thunder, waves of True Essence surged in from all directions towards Yang Zhen.
Whether intentionally or not, most of the violent lightning dragons conjured by Liang Lie went towards the ice palace, covering most of the nodes Yang Zhen had painstakingly set up.
“Damn, this dumbass!” Yang Zhen’s face changed, he turned to the sly cat and Sao Jing and said, “Forget about the ice palace for now, you two go down and protect me!”
The sly cat exclaimed with its eyes wide open, “Are you crazy? After all the effort to seal the Void Power, you’re giving up just like that?”
“Give up?” Yang Zhen snorted, “Not a chance!”
Boom!
Yang Zhen’s hands slapped heavily on the ice palace, a terrifyingly fierce aura gushed out from inside the ice palace, engulfing the heavens and the earth in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Yang Zhen kicked the sly cat and Sao Jing towards the ground, narrowly avoiding the explosion of Void Power.
-Didn’t you want to refine it?” Yang Zhen looked at Liang Lie viciously, “Come on, refine this thing?”
Layers of Void Power covered everything in an instant, the turbulence was twisting the void violently, as if it was about to destroy this part of the world. Liang Lie’s jeering face instantly turned liver-colored, he cursed hysterically, “You bastard, have you gone mad, Void Power isn’t something that can be refined at will, you madman.”
The sly cat fell down on its buttocks and muttered, “Damn, Yang Xiaozi is really desperate!”
