Chapter 174: United Front of Cultivators! (Fourth Update)
(Today's fourth update)
That golden red divine eagle was getting closer and closer, and everyone could clearly see that there was a young figure standing on its back, with an expression full of pride.
"It's really one of the three heroes of the Eastern Domain, Qiū Shào Xián. I didn't expect him to come here too." When they saw the young man clearly, all the cultivators present couldn't help but exclaim in disbelief.
"It really is him." Yi Chen clenched his fists together, seeing that detestable pair of eyes, a boundless killing intent surged up in his heart.
Constantly cultivating, no matter when, Yi Chen never dared to relax for a moment, the goal was to make himself grow up as soon as possible, thoroughly defeat Qiu Shaoxian, and avenge his father.
Now that Qiu Shaoxian has appeared again, Yi Chen's resentment hidden in his heart is once again triggered. He can't help but want to rush up and slap him a few times, then trample him underfoot.
Of course, that's just an idea, but according to Yi Chen's current strength, he is not a match for Qiu Shaoxian at all. If things go wrong, he might even lose his life.
At this time, Yi Chen was only in the Yellow Soul Realm. What he needed most now was time to grow and hide, waiting for him to grow up before deciding on a life-and-death battle with Qiu Shaoxian.
"Just wait and see, when the time of the grand gathering of all ethnic groups comes, I will definitely trample you under my feet in front of everyone."
Yi Chen was very good at controlling his emotions, and his face quickly returned to calm. His slightly narrowed eyes flashed with determination, and a voice echoed in his heart.
"Chirp!" Under the gaze of everyone, the golden red divine eagle under Qiu Shao's feet let out a long whistle and then dived towards the tent camp in the central area.
"Fengying Empire's Liu Yi, Nuodi Empire's Nuodi Qintian, Huangji Empire's Qiuxiao Xian, now the three heroes of the Eastern Domain have all arrived, I wonder what sparks they will ignite tomorrow." said a not-so-young cultivator.
"Have all of those incredibly powerful geniuses arrived?" An unusual expression appeared on Yi Chen's face.
Liu Yi's strength was something that Yi Chen had already witnessed before. He was a quasi-Mystic Soul Stage cultivator, capable of withstanding the strongest blow from the three-headed Flame Hound.
And as for Akuto Sai's strength, according to Mina, it is even stronger than Liu Yi's and is also an extremely terrifying existence.
As for Nuo Di Qin Tian, Yi Chen had never seen this person before, but being able to become one of the three strongest in the Eastern Domain, his strength shouldn't be much weaker than that of Qiu Shao Xian and the others.
"There are already three quasi-Huangyun realm cultivators present. Judging from this, they should still send out stronger Huangyun realm experts. In that case, even if we enter the Ice Snow Palace, it's not necessarily a good thing for us." Yi Chen furrowed his brow, and this was not good news for him.
"According to various legends, the Ice Palace is the most likely place where Snow Crystal Spirit Stone exists, can't miss this opportunity."
Although he knew it was going to be tough, Yi Chen couldn't help but feel a little excited and looked forward to tomorrow's action.
"The more challenging it is, the more exciting it becomes. No one can make me back down." A firm voice echoed in his mind, and Yi Chen slowly drove away the distractions in his heart, releasing a vigilant and alert observation of his surroundings, while closing his eyes to calm his spirit.
The central area often hears the roar of monsters, which is exactly from the ice and snow palace. At first, the practitioners were nervous, but now that they have been here for so many days, everyone has become accustomed to it and spent a night listening to this sound.
The night passed extremely quickly, and when the sky was slightly bright, all the cultivators stood up and looked in the direction of the Ice Snow Palace together.
"It's finally dawn." Seeing this situation, Yi Chen hooked the corner of his mouth and quickly stood up from the ground, with both fists clenched.
"The people of the three major empires have already set out from the Ice and Snow Palace, it seems they are going to rush into the Ice and Snow Palace. Everyone hurry up, otherwise you won't even get a chance to drink soup." A figure quickly rushed out from the campsite and shouted loudly at the cultivators.
"What? The three major imperial powers have already set off?" All the cultivators were stunned for a moment, and when they reacted, they shouted in unison: "Charge! Enter the Ice Snow Imperial Palace!"
At this moment, tens of thousands of cultivators rushed towards the central area in unison, while Yi Chen did not move, turning his head to look at the 'kind-hearted' cultivator who had informed him, only to find that he looked extremely familiar.
"He is Kong Ning, wanted by the Wind Shadow Empire." Yi Chen took a closer look and found that the person was wearing a bamboo hat, had a stout build, and after comparing with the voice from earlier, his heart echoed with this voice.
The other party was indeed the fat repairer who deceived the Wind Shadow Empire, but what made Yi Chen puzzled was that the other party seemed to be not afraid of being recognized by the people of the Wind Shadow Empire, and openly came out to promote the repairer, which was really bold.
"Open the Ice Palace with your blood, I hope you won't disappoint me." Kong Ning sneered and then disappeared into the crowd.
"That night, what was he drawing around the Ice Palace, and listening to him muttering to himself, it seemed like he was very familiar with the Ice Palace." The other person's mysteriousness made Yi Chen curious about his identity.
But Yi Chen didn't think much of it and quickly stepped forward, following the cultivators in the direction of the Ice Snow Palace.
Before long, the crowd arrived not far from the Ice Palace. Although it was still some distance away, they could already see a magnificent corner of the palace clearly. Everyone's heart seemed to be jumping out at this moment, tense to the extreme.
People from the three major empires have already arrived, with dozens of flying magical beasts floating above the Ice Palace, divided into three directions, namely the Huangji Empire, the Fengying Empire, and the Nuo Di Empire.
They floated high up, instantly attracting everyone's attention. Yi Chen also turned his head towards the direction of the Notti Empire and suddenly found that Wei Na was sitting on the back of a flying demon beast, with a young man beside her.
He wore a dragon robe, with a gentle smile on his face, without releasing any aura, but it made people's hearts tremble with fear.
"Absolutely a dangerous character, could he be Mina's older brother, Notti Qin Tian who possesses Quasi-Holy Soul Boundary power?"
Yi Chen made such a guess, and later got the answer in the discussion of other cultivators. He was indeed Nuo Di Qin Tian.
"Liu Yi, Qiu Shao Xian." His gaze shifted, and Yi Chen saw two familiar figures from another direction. In an instant, the anger in his heart was ignited.
One was Qiu Shaoxian, who had abandoned his own father, and the other was Liu Yi, who had almost taken his life just a few days ago. These two men made it difficult for Yi Chen to suppress his murderous intentions.
The spiritual awareness of the Quan Xuan Hun Jing was extremely keen, and Yi Chen quickly withdrew his killing intent, while lowering his fighting cap, following very quietly from behind, afraid of being recognized by them.
"Ice and Snow Palace, we finally see the legendary Ice and Snow Palace!" After a while of walking, everyone finally arrived at the edge of the deep valley, looking at the Ice and Snow Palace in the deep valley, all the cultivators couldn't help but get excited.
The commotion below did not affect the Autumn Shao Xian and others in the void, who looked down at the ground with a condescending attitude. When they saw the excited expressions of the cultivators, their eyes flashed with a playful color.
"The people of the Three Great Empires would not easily share their treasures with ordinary cultivators, and yet they let these cultivators in. Is there some sort of conspiracy afoot?" Yi Chen looked up at them, his brow furrowed.
"It's said that the Ice and Snow Palace has countless treasures, let's work together to open the palace doors and share the treasures inside!" A yellow-soul realm elder beside Liu Yi loudly incited.
"Open the Ice Palace, open the Ice Palace!" Tens of thousands of cultivators were strangely excited, their eyes fixed on the ice and snow palace with fervent heat, they had been eager to rush in and plunder treasures as soon as possible.
"Share." Upon hearing those two words, a playful smile appeared on Yi Chen's face. He didn't believe that the major powers would be so kind-hearted.
He glanced coldly at the many excited cultivators, then quietly retreated to the back of the crowd. Who knows what will happen next, it's better to keep a safe distance.
"It's time to act, all of you fellow cultivators and brothers, let's open the Ice Snow Palace together!" That Liu family national master shouted loudly, then drew out a weapon and began to mobilize his soul power.
At this time, those cultivators couldn't care about that anymore. What they needed most now was to open the Ice Palace and go in to plunder the treasures inside. They began to constantly urge on their soul power.
Tens of thousands of people simultaneously urged their soul power, causing a very strong fluctuation in the soul power. At a speed visible to the naked eye, it spread out in all directions, and a strong gust of wind stirred around.
Seeing this situation, Yi Chen's face gradually became solemn. On the day of the beast's riot, a very terrifying roar was heard in the central area, and there must be a very powerful beast guarding it.
If the Ice Palace is successfully opened, I'm afraid that terrifying demon will come out again and trigger another beast riot.
"Hmm" Thinking of this, Yi Chen also started to mobilize his soul power, but he wasn't going to attack the ice palace together. Instead, he condensed all his soul power into his feet, and as soon as there was any danger, he would immediately leave.
After doing all this, Yi Chen looked around and found that there were not a few people who had the same idea as him. Their cultivation was not low, so they naturally didn't easily get stirred up.
"Everyone attack the Ice Palace's gate together!" The Liu family's national teacher, who was in charge of shouting, quickly swung his weapon forward, and a yellow soul force rapidly shot out, striking the gate.
"Hong" Huang's full-force strike was extremely powerful, but the large gate didn't even budge a bit, not even swaying slightly.
"Open the gates of the Ice Palace!" Although it was futile, the remaining tens of thousands of cultivators didn't think too much about it. They shouted in unison and their respective weapons swiftly chopped forward.
"Pong!" In this instant, a dazzling light flashed, and the terrifying soul power fluctuations spread in all directions. The soul powers emitted by tens of thousands of cultivators intertwined to form a giant dragon floating in mid-air.
Although each person's power is small, all the soul powers gathered together are different. The breath released by that giant dragon makes people tremble with fear, vividly giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"Tens of thousands of cultivators launched a simultaneous attack, hoping to open the gates of that ice palace." Yi Chen clenched his fist, and such a voice echoed in his heart.
