Chapter 382: The Ice Clan’s Plan to Freeze the Demonic Energy
Chapter 382: The Ice Clan’s Plan to Freeze the Demonic Energy
The possibility of it being the Nine Evil Sword Lord is really small. If the other party really wants to find his trace, the first target is to go to Tianbao City, and the second target is Gui Ling.
It would not go against common sense to lock the location to the endless ice field.
Not to mention stumbling on this ancient road discovered by Hanxue Peak.
It can only be the Ice Clan.
The Ice Clan in the ancient demon sealed land have been on good terms with the Hanxue Peak for generations. Their behavior of blocking the road without hurting anyone shows that they do not want to be enemies with the Nilingxue Sect.
"Are they stalling for time?"
This thought suddenly popped up in my mind.
He thought again of the mixed-race people he met when he was killing the cultivators at Xuangu Mountain. Thinking about it carefully, the ancestors of the human race in this world had tried all sorts of things to break free from the cage.
The Ice Tribe doesn't have any? That's obviously impossible!
Being mixed-blood is just the first step out of the ice field. If their ancient history has not been lost, they should be very clear about the past of the Ice Clan, which was once the ruler of the Ice Prison Realm.
Looking to the future, their enemies are actually aliens, so cooperation is an excellent planning direction.
And the appearance of this hybrid is no different from that of humans.
Only when faced with fatal extreme cold will that special ice crystal energy sea be suddenly activated to save one's life.
Based on inheritance, the probability of sneaking into Hanxue Peak is very high.
Wang Yu stroked his chin and thought quietly.
Seeing his expression, Yu Shu did not disturb him and started to think about it as well. He had noticed something strange, but his mind was filled with Song Yun's affairs.
The only thought in my mind was that I must break through the realm.
Treat all difficulties encountered along the way as tests.
After being asked by Wang Yu, he calmed down a lot.
"...Fellow Daoist Bing Mo, why are you asking about this?"
"oh--
"I am also going to the Ancient Demon Sealed Area. That area is full of demonic energy and is more suitable for Yuanying cultivation."
Wang Yu came back to his senses and deliberately used his spiritual sense to reveal his fourth-level strength.
He does.
In addition to shocking Yu Shu, he also didn't want to tell others about such an important matter as Ningying. Otherwise, wouldn't it be reminding the other party that he had the Ningying spiritual object?
It is not good to lure the other party into taking risks.
It is better to deter them early, and it is reasonable to use cultivation as an excuse.
just.
The other party was so shocked that he retreated repeatedly, and his guard became even stronger. In Chiyuan, it was uncommon for a Nascent Soul to call a Jindan kid "fellow Taoist", but Wang Yu didn't care at all.
"If you have the opportunity to leave this ice field, you can ask me for information. Goodbye."
He sincerely hopes that the other party can succeed in condensing the infant, and saying this is to express goodwill, but that's all. He should respect the fate of others, and success or failure depends entirely on himself.
And from Yu Shu we learned that the Ice Clan had set up checkpoints to stop us.
He decided to speed up.
The other party was delaying time and was unwilling for the human cultivators to go to the ancient demon seal site, so he naturally had to speed up and find out what the Ice Clan was planning.
Also.
As long as he gets close to the sealed area, the concentration of demonic energy should increase significantly. He can wander around and collect it without having to enter the sealed area.
It is extremely dangerous to fleece the ancient demon.
Even pioneers like the Lord of Hanxue Mountain and the Skyshuang Demon Lord collected frozen demonic energy from the periphery. Wang Yu had prepared a set of formation flags for this.
It is actually more appropriate to use the empty top-grade spirit stones now.
This thing is a natural container. As long as he collects one, it will be enough for him to use to condense his infant. After consuming the demonic energy inside, it will not affect the recovery of the top-grade spirit stone.
Sometimes, the major sects of the demonic path would go to the ancient demon seal sites to collect a portion of the demonic energy corresponding to different paths, seal it up, and leave it for future generations or to use when breaking through the realm.
Theoretically speaking.
When condensing the demonic Nascent Soul, absorbing demonic energy that matches the properties of the technique is actually equivalent to opening up new sources of energy!
Grants cultivators the ability to absorb and refine demonic energy.
Just like when entering Taoism, the cultivator needs to sit still, sense the spirit, and refine the spirit. It is a necessary process to enter the door of the magic path. After that, no specific magic energy is required for cultivation.
Because the seeds are already there, all that remains is transformation.
Refined spiritual energy and demonic energy of other attributes can all be transformed into demonic essence. In the Ice Prison Realm, because there are too many ancient demons sealed in it, there is already extremely weak demonic energy in the air breathed in and out by all living things.
of course.
By absorbing the demonic energy of corresponding attributes, the speed of cultivation will be much faster, but there is also a risk of losing control. It can only be used in small amounts when breaking through the realm.
This is also another special currency used within the Demonic Nascent Soul. It is filled with empty top-grade spirit stones. If Wang Yu fills the three empty top-grade spirit stones in his hand, it can be called a Frozen Demonic Spirit Stone.
Others will know what is going on as soon as they hear it.
However, more Nascent Soul magic cultivators still use top-grade spirit stones for cultivation. The magic energy converted in this way is more under their own control, and they often have one or more large fourth-order spirit veins behind them.
Sorting out various information.
With Wang Yu's innate demon fetus physique, the daily training cycle that can be composed of ten ordinary Nascent Soul top-grade spirit stones is far from enough for him. He needs at least fifty.
Because of the spiritual body-level qualifications, it also has a beneficial effect in the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage, and even helps to break through to the God Transformation stage.
Only then will the spiritual advantage gradually decrease.
He needed more top-grade spirit stones, but this thing rarely appeared on the market. The two times he had seen them were both at large-scale fourth-level auctions.
This is a red kite. I dare not even imagine what it would look like if it were in Taihu Lake.
a few days later.
Using the Aurora Escape Technique to speed up all the way, Wang Yu was getting closer and closer to the ancient demon's sealed place. He also discovered a large number of ice beasts along the way, which were indeed blocking the door.
In order to avoid being discovered, he also chose to take a detour.
The secret method of melting ice is the most perfect secret technique to hide one's breath on the endless ice field, making him look like an ice block that can be found everywhere, without any breath.
You can get through it by just taking a slight detour.
in this way.
half a month later.
One ice sculpture after another came into view, with an extremely large ice phoenix statue in the middle. The ice tribe responsible for guarding the sealed land had finally arrived.
Most of the Ice Clan's buildings are huge in size, rough and primitive in style, and are made entirely of solid ice.
He saw a simple ice palace, the entrance alone was several dozen meters wide, probably designed to accommodate the huge beast-like people.
But the Ice Clan is mostly in human form.
Therefore, there are also exquisitely cast buildings, from which we can see the styles of people from all over the world. The population of this tribe is not very prosperous, with only tens of thousands of people.
All kinds of strange ice sculptures are moving inside.
That's right.
In Wang Yu's eyes, the Ice Clan were actually no different from ice sculptures. These guys were made up of ice crystals all over. Some had four hands, some had animal heads and human bodies, some had human heads and animal bodies... some looked like mammoths, and some looked like gorillas.
It feels like it was carved by humans.
Wang Yu couldn't help but wonder, how could this thing interbreed with humans? Do they have the concept of reproduction? Or can they ejaculate... sperm? Get pregnant?
pity.
The black stone tablet only describes the concept of the Ice Clan, and does not have the corresponding spiritual power virtual image engraved on it. The ancient book of Hanxue Peak is also an old version.
Although it was said that the Ice Clan was as beautiful as ice crystals, he did not expect it to be a realistic description. He could only say that the world is so big that nothing is impossible.
To be honest, it was the first time that Wang Yu saw a person from an alien race, which was also the oldest intelligent race in the Ice Prison Realm.
Considering his lack of knowledge about the Ice Clan.
Therefore, he did not approach rashly, but looked for a way to cross the settlement. As a "gatekeeper", he would not live directly above the sealed area.
That would be too dangerous, so they often block important entrances to the place. According to the sect's ancient books, the Frozen Demon should be sealed on a solitary peak.
But Wang Yu did not see such a conspicuous landmark.
"Is it obscured by some kind of formation?"
He began to move around the settlement. Generally speaking, if one revealed his identity as a monk from the Frostblood Peak, he could successfully enter the settlement and sense the frost demonic energy.
After all, the two have a friendly alliance for generations.
Wang Yu considered that the Ice Clan might be doing something shameful and did not want his identity to be exposed too early, so he walked around the settlement, trying to directly sense the concentration of the frozen demonic energy to determine the direction of the sealed area.
This method is quite useful.
Only about half a day later, Wang Yu discovered something unusual.
"Is this the Frozen Demonic Energy?"
at this time.
A wisp of blue-black frozen demonic energy was swirling around his fingers. Its appearance was almost the same as his magic power, but its quality was completely on a different level.
The same amount of magic power, if used to activate the ice sword technique, can only reach a maximum range of fifteen meters. If the freezing magic energy is used, it will not be a problem to split mountains or cut rivers.
The power of demonic energy will definitely greatly enhance the destructive performance of cultivators. The might of their magical powers will surge and can easily cause the aftermath of destroying a city.
What level can be achieved by going all out?
Wang Yu hasn't seen it yet, but it is definitely stronger than the Yellow Springs Grudge Puppet.
After injecting this wisp of frozen demonic energy into the top-grade spirit stone, its fluctuations immediately became stable, and his gaze also looked towards the back of the Ice Clan settlement.
The frost demon energy over there seems to be even more intense.
As for whether to forcefully break into the Ice Clan's settlement, he personally was unwilling to do so. All previous masters of the Cold Blood Mountain chose to make friends rather than take over.
There must be a reason.
Never ignore the rules left by our predecessors. Some of them were actually tested at the cost of one's life, and one can also infer some information in reverse.
As he gradually walked away.
Inside the Ice Clan’s settlement, in a tall tower near the Ice Phoenix statue, three pale-skinned monks with silver hair and blue eyes looked at each other.
"The magical energy cultivated by the Ice Soul Holy Demonic Scripture is heading towards the sealed area."
"Don't worry, it must be a monk from Frost Blood Peak."
"But... he must have discovered something, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to bypass my clan."
The leader narrowed his eyes, and the aura he exuded was surprisingly at the late Nascent Soul stage. He thought for a moment and said.
“This person’s vitality is very young, he must be a genius of the Cold Blood Peak. He cannot die here, and we cannot become enemies with the Nilingxue Sect.
"Besides, the giant ice beasts along the way are so crudely arranged, he can probably guess that we want to delay time, and the purpose is nothing more than to freeze the demonic energy to condense the infant."
"The high priest is right. Since this person has no intention of sneaking in to investigate, it is obvious that he does not want to intervene. It will not affect our plan, so why bother to make things more complicated?"
The words of agreement came from the mouth of a young man. His cultivation was weaker, but he had also reached the sixth level of Nascent Soul, so he was no simple person.
These three people are the strongest in the "Gatekeeper Tribe".
The Ice Clan creatures were originally incapable of cultivation, so the arrival of humans was both a disaster and a blessing. In the most ancient times, some cultivators saw that they were spiritual and taught them the methods of cultivation.
To drive a slave to be used as a tool.
Most of them became jailers to guard the sealed land for them. However, later on, the world changed drastically, and the ice field receded until only the area beneath their feet remained.
They are the only group of people still guarding the gate.
However, the method of cultivation has been passed down and improved through generations. After the fall of the ancient immortal dynasty, the demon race rose and finally reached its peak in the generation of Bing Feng.
In fact, according to Yan Ling's information and the consensus of the world.
They all believed that Bing Feng was the holy leader of the demon race.
The Ice Clan's appearance is really too deceptive. They are made of ice crystals all over and sparkle when the light shines on them, making it almost impossible to mistake them.
But as the Ice Clan practiced the Nascent Soul path.
After breaking through the fourth stage, the ice sculpture-like body will transform into a human, evolving into a body more suitable for cultivation. The same is true for the fourth stage transformation of the demon race.
As to why this is the case, there are many different opinions.
Bing Feng was the first person in the Ice Clan to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. She disguised herself as a demon and took the opportunity to seize resources from the world, secretly expanding the strength of the Ice Clan.
It was not enough to leave the Holy Lord's Heavenly Palace treasury, and 720 inheritance temples were arranged on the endless ice field, almost all of which were preparations for the Ice Clan.
But these younger generations are not up to standard.
Most of the holy orders fell into the hands of the demon race, and the inheritance orders were scattered all over the world, most of which were in the hands of the human race.
Only the Ice Clan with an orderly inheritance knows these secrets, which are completely different from the wild people outside.
Immersed in thoughts.
The high priest suddenly spoke.
"Go on, only by imitating the deeds of our ancestors can we have a chance of winning. In the past, the world belonged to the demon race, but now it belongs to the human race."
"understood."
"Yes!"
Surrounding the three people were naked female human cultivators with hazy eyes, obviously being controlled by magic.
Before the Ice Clan broke through to the third level, their method of reproduction was very unique, through the carvings of the clan members and the accumulation of their aura.
Until one day, a breakthrough and enlightenment occur.
It's a bit like ice becoming a spirit, which is extremely difficult.
Therefore, the number of the Ice Clan has always been small, until they came into contact with the way of cultivation, broke through the fourth level, gained the ability to transform into humans, and grew reproductive organs.
Imitate the plan of the ancestor Ice Phoenix to steal the fruit of the demon clan.
It just happened naturally.
The two young Ice Clan Yuanyings endured the bad words and fatigue and sowed seeds vigorously. The high priest walked to the center of the ice tower, where a pregnant woman with a big belly was lying.
Obviously a special individual.
The high priest cast a spell to draw out his own heart blood, which seeped into the body of the pregnant female cultivator, silently nourishing the son of hope of the Ice Clan!
Calculating the time, it will be born successfully in a few years.
He really didn't want to cause any trouble at this time.
Therefore, as long as Wang Yu had no intention of exploring the internal situation of the Ice Clan, he was willing to live in peace. It is better to be safe than sorry, after all, he didn't know Wang Yu.
He doesn't have any spies in the outside world.
The low-level ice clan members cannot leave the ice field. Although the high-level transformed ice clan members can leave the ice field, they cannot stay there for long.
If you stay there for too long, your essence will disappear.
According to the information left by the Ice Phoenix Ancestor, because the rules of heaven and earth are very different, they can only live under the care of the original rules of the Ice Prison Realm.
We are born because of it and we are bound because of it.
