Chapter 1272: Fire Of Fury

When Zhang Ruochen walked out of the Mercury Gourd, the Crazy Alcoholic had already steered the ice mountain to very unfamiliar territory.

Whoosh, whoosh.

The Xuan Yin Wind in the air was even more violent. Some formed into human shapes and hit the sea surface, lifting up huge waves in the Abandoned Deep Sea.

The temperature was shockingly low. According to Zhang Ruochen’s estimates, even a Half-Saint would probably freeze to death.

Half-Saints and Saints had very high vitalities. In Kunlun’s Field, they could rule over a piece of land, but they would become very weak here. They couldn’t withstand the extreme cold, just like regular humans.

“Is this place habitable? Even a Saint would freeze if they accidentally fell into the sea. This is terrifying.”

Zhang Ruochen had the Jingmie Divine Fire, so he wasn’t afraid of the cold. But he still felt shocked.

The Crazy Alcoholic’s hair and whiskers were all covered in ice. Drinking the Dragon Fire Wine, he said, “We’re already close to the center of the Abandoned Deep Sea. It’s known as the Yin center of the Yin Yang Sea and one of the coldest places in Kunlun’s Field.”

“Is there news of Huang Yanchen and the others?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“A short while ago, I caught a Saint from the imperial court. According to him, he personally saw those girls and cat enter the center of the Abandoned Deep Sea.”

A silver-white coastline appeared in the distance. One couldn’t see its end. It was like the edge of the mainland.

Zhang Ruochen went to the peak of the ice mountain. Gazing toward the coastline, he was taken aback. “How can there be such an icy land in the center of the Abandoned Deep Sea? The water here won’t freeze naturally. What’s going on?”

The Crazy Alcoholic was also confused. Then terror flashed past his eyes. “That’s not land. That’s an ice mountain. It’s just too big, so it looks like icy land.”

“There’s no land?”

“Indeed.”

Zhang Ruochen gasped, muttering to himself, “How can this be?”

“There are two possibilities,” the Crazy Alcoholic said. “First is that countless beings died here. Each one formed an ice mountain and they connected to form this mass of land.”

Zhang Ruochen was a bit moved. “How many beings must die to create such a huge piece of land?”

“The second possibility is even more terrifying.”

“How can it be?”

The Crazy Alcoholic’s expression turned solemn. After a long silence, he said, “The stronger the being, the bigger the ice mountain after he dies. What if there is only one corpse under this landmass? That is even more terrifying.”

Zhang Ruochen was dumbfounded. “One corpse forming this piece of land…”

The Crazy Alcoholic nodded. “Both possibilities show that this place is extremely dangerous. We can’t go in so brashly. According to my years of escape experience, we cannot step foot onto this land. At least, I’m not going.”

The ice mountain came to the edge of this land and stopped. The Crazy Alcoholic was too scared and refused to step foot onto the land. He even wanted Zhang Ruochen to return with him.

“Fine! If you won’t go, I won’t force you, but I am definitely going.”

Zhang Ruochen pushed off from the ice mountain and flew into the sky like a big bird. He landed steadily on the land.

The Crazy Alcoholic stood at the top of the ice mountain and called, “Zhang Ruochen, you’re going to die there anyway, so why don’t you give me the Mercury Gourd? You’ll be contributing to the rise of humanity.”

“Don’t jinx me.”

Zhang Ruochen really wanted to slap the Crazy Alcoholic. He hadn’t even truly ventured into the icy land and the man was already giving him the death sentence.

The Crazy Alcoholic wasn’t satisfied. Staring at Zhang Ruochen’s backside, he called again, “Give the Mercury Gourd to me for safekeeping. I’ll return it when you walk out alive. If you lose this priceless treasure in the icy land, what a loss it’ll be…”

Zhang Ruochen ignored him. He sped up, disappearing in the stinging wind.

The icy land was a vast and boundless tundra. There were no living things. Occasionally, there were some amazing mountains that didn’t fall even in the Xuan Yin Wind. It was incredible.

Zhang Ruochen suspected that Blackie, Huang Yanchen and the others might’ve really entered this land. Blackie’s physical body might be sealed here.

Entering the land, Zhang Ruochen’s Spiritual Power was further restricted. His own eyes and ears were stronger.

Zhang Ruochen used a physical technique and rushed to the top of a peak. Using the Saintly Eye, he searched for traces of the others.

Boom.

A beam of silver light streaked past. There was a figure inside. It crashed into a mountain and fell onto the plains with a loud boom. A large mass of ice crystals flew up like a white cloud.

“That’s… Ao Xinyan’s aura…”

Overjoyed, Zhang Ruochen used the Great Spatial Move and hurried to where the silver light had fallen.

A miles-long trench had opened up on the icy ground. At the end of it, there was a huge ditch. The surrounding ice had all shattered. Ao Xinyan climbed out of the ditch, her entire body trembling. Blood flowed out of cracks in her Divine Dragon Silver Armor. It was obvious how badly hurt she was. She couldn’t even stand up.

Poof!

She’d just climbed out of the ditch and only half-risen when she spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt onto the ground.

“Run! See where you can run to! Haha!”

The young Manlong Dragon lord strode over with huge steps and laughed maniacally. Charging over to Ao Xinyan, he slapped her with a huge palm, sending her into the ditch again.

An 800-meter-long red flood dragon hurried over too. It was covered in flames. Wherever it went, the ice melted into rivers.

This was a descendant of a divine beast from Ancient Dragon Mountain, known as the Flood Dragon King.

“Don’t kill her,” the Flood Dragon King said. “She has already completed the True Dragon Body. The dragon blood within her is very precious.”

“So many strong figures attacked her together, yet she almost escaped. Her silver armor must be some amazing treasure. Her speed once it’s activated is quite terrifying.”

The young Manlong Dragon lord dragged Ao Xinyan out of the ditch and threw her onto the ground with a thud. His large hand started searching around the armor, trying to take it off.

“I must say, she really is the number one beauty of the Divine Dragon and Half Human Clan. Not only is her face pretty, her figure is great too. Not many women on Ancient Dragon Mountain can be compared to her. After I take off the armor, I’ll do her.”

Seeing Ao Xinyan’s features so closely, the young Manlong Dragon lord was very tempted. He tried to undo the armor even more desperately.

Ao Xinyan’s face was pale and she felt hopeless. “You’re forcing me to ignite my Sea of Qi and saintly source for us to all die together.”

The young Manlong Dragon lord laughed. “You think I didn’t think of this? Right now, you’re only seeing my saint soul body. Even if you ignite your Sea of Qi and saintly source, you won’t be able to hurt me.”

Ao Xinyan clenched her fists. She wanted to push herself up and continue fighting, but she’d been besieged earlier. She was too badly hurt. It was like her body had been torn apart. She couldn’t stand up at all.

“You all deserve to die. Zhang Ruochen will definitely…kill you all…” Ao Xinyan threatened.

The young Manlong Dragon lord laughed even more loudly. “Zhang Ruochen? He just entered the Saint Realm. Even if he hurries over, he’ll just be here to die. I can kill him with one hand.”

In the distance, the Flood Dragon King transformed into human shape and scoffed. “That fiancée of his should have been captured already. The Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon already said he wants to marry her to humiliate Zhang Ruochen. I actually wish he could come. That man is too arrogant. It’ll be good to make him know what pain is worse than death.”

Zhang Ruochen used five Great Spatial Moves and finally came to the vicinity. He happened to hear the young Manlong Dragon lord and Flood Dragon King’s conversation. When he saw Ao Xinyan lying in a puddle of blood, fury rose up in his heart.

“Such big words. If you want me to know what pain is, you’re far from enough.”

With a cold cry, Zhang Ruochen transformed into a ghostly figure and shot at the young Manlong Dragon lord with the fastest speed.

Instead of shock, the young lord was pleased. Chuckling, he said, “Zhang Ruochen, you’re finally here!”

“Die.”

Zhang Ruochen struck out. A golden dragon flew out of his palm, shining with dazzling light. The young Manlong Dragon lord’s hands transformed into dragon claws. He pressed down, clashing with the golden dragon.

Crack.

The young Manlong Dragon lord’s claws and body shattered instantly into various parts. Each part further shattered into dragon-shaped balls of Holy Qi.

“It’s only a saint soul body.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes hardened. He hurriedly lowered himself to check Ao Xinyan’s injuries.

She was severely injured. Her body was all ratty, but thankfully, her True Dragon Qi connected her broken body. The Divine Dragon Silver Armor also had mysterious power that was pouring vitality into her, so she hadn’t died yet.

When she saw Zhang Ruochen, she was overjoyed and touched. Tears flowed out of her eyes.

Every time she was in danger, Zhang Ruochen would appear like her savior, rescuing her. Without realizing, she’d come to rely on Zhang Ruochen.

As long as Zhang Ruochen was here, she would feel safe.

Of course, she was still worried about Zhang Ruochen’s safety. Bearing the pain from her injuries, she said, “The Flood Dragon King is in the Xuanhuang Realm and is a Divine Beast descendant. His combat abilities are like a Half Absolute Realm Sint. The young Manlong Dragon lord’s true body is nearby too… Team Leader, you must be careful.”

“Stop talking and rest well. Hand this to me. I’ll make then pay tenfold.”

Zhang Ruochen took out a Spring Pill and fed it to Ao Xinyan.

When the Flood Dragon King saw that Zhang Ruochen had suddenly appeared and still hadn’t retreated, his expression grew happy. Zhang Ruochen seems furious, he thought. I can take this chance to kill him.

The Flood Dragon King had seen Zhang Ruochen fight before and knew his abilities. He was only a lower Saint and couldn’t really do much. The Flood Dragon King wasn’t afraid at all.

Smiling, he said, “Zhang Ruochen, you’re here just in time. I will capture you today and give you to the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon as a big gift.”

Zhang Ruochen peered at him sideways and stood up. “Great,” he said coldly. “I also want to kill you as a big gift to the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon.”
