Exiled Clan - 65 Ice phoenix
Celestial Frost Mountain was originally Cloud Mountain. Legend has it that during ancient times, a hail storm blew past this location, instantly transforming the mountain into a pristine snowy aspect.
After this place was discovered by humans, they realized how beautiful the mountains looked behind the hazy blue clouds. Inspired by the majestic image, the humans decided to rename this place Celestial Frost Mountain.
The Celestial Rainbow Mountain was the second largest mountain in the Northern area after the Eternal Ice Mountain. It was extremely spacious, spanning a radius of ten kilometers.
The Celestial Frost Mountain was actually a mountain range consisting of ten mountain peaks, each of them, incredibly dangerous, and under the control of the various divisions of the Spirit Ice Sect.
The main mountain peak of the Celestial Frost Mountain was named the “Ice Dragon Summit”; it was treacherous and dangerous beyond comparison and a Blue Ice Dragon was rumored to reside there.
Not only was it extremely steep, but there was also only a single path between the peak and base of the mountain. After the Spirit Ice Sect built their roots in this area, they set up a total of thirteen checkpoints on the path up the mountain for the easier access and security.
The Serene Snow Mountain peak was the safest in the Celestial Frost Mountain.
A long track stretched to the bottom of this mountain symbolizing the path recently traveled on.
Rudra was currently meditating inside a cave in the icy mountains, the cold wind blowing through the entrance of the cave made him shudder.
Rudra had traveled up this mountain, following an ice road looking for a cave to cultivate on.
Though he could not use his Qi his body was still several times more resilient than most of the Demonic Beasts.
Looking at the beautiful scenery and listening to the birds chirping, Rudra felt that, for that moment, it was as if all that was troubling him had melted away.
As if the calmness of the heart was what the key to all his dilemma as Rudra felt the colors in the sky change, the original world turned grey and the only colored that appeared in front of him were the various Qi floating in the air.
“HAHA! calm and serene it looks like this trip was not a waste after all.” Rudra laughed in delight as he examined the world around him with his Omniscient Eye.
“Damn it, I was sure something was wrong the moment I woke up what is this garbage body.” all the joy was drained from his face as Rudra looked at his body which attracted Wind and Ice Qi.
“This is why I was not able to gather any Qi!” Rudra raged continued as he realized that he would need to cultivate Ice or WInd scriptures.
“Huff Huff!” Rudra laid on the floor of the cave feeling the cold seep into his back.
“I can ask help from that girl Eira, but that…..” Rudra was opposed to the idea of asking Eira for more favors as she had already helped him by sheltering him in this sect.
” I can’t even open my space ring without Qi, otherwise I would have found something in the Exiled Demon Sutra,” Rudra thought as he relaxed and began to contemplate his options.
“But how did my body become so Element centric I though I built a new body a body gets its elemental affinity from their ancestors.”
“Or did something else affect the body,…..” Rudra’s brain once again started turning gears as he quickly crossed out different possibilities that popped up in his mind.
He used Omniscient Eye to observe his body several times, finally finding some blue drops running in his veins they were so small that he had missed them till now.
“What are these?” Rudra said as he looked at the half a dozen blue globules in his bloodstream.
As Rudra concentrated the Omniscient Eye at the globules of blue blood, they started radiating a silverfish glow and suddenly a screech sounded inside his head as he saw massive bluebird flying,
He recalled, he had seen this bird somewhere before, remembering the embroidery on the white robes of Iclyn, he was enlightened.
SCREECH! the bird cried,
Suddenly a chant appeared inside of his head causing him to realize that this bluebird was actually an ice phoenix.
“So this is the guardian beast of the Spirit Ice Sect, the Ice Phoenix, also the blue globules are its blood that contains the blood inheritance of the phoenixes.”
“But, How did I get the blood inside me?” Rudra began pondering over the origin of the phoenix’s blood in his vessels.
“Feck! I can’t figure it out, I have too little information regarding what happened. I should ask Rishi or Yali for details later.” Rudra rubbed his temples as he made it back on his feet and prepared to move down the mountain track.
