Immortal Devil Transformation - Book 16: Chapter 52: In Front of The Snow Line

The deeper one got into the secular world, the more one would experience the happiness, anger, sorrow and joy, the more complicated relationships grew.

This was because the more these ordinary people needed power and rules to protect them, the more impossible it was for them to break free from these rules’ limitations.

However, in the world of powerful cultivators, all rules instead originated from power itself.

It was just like Great Mang’s heaven-defying sword wielding Li Ku, when he massacred all of the high ranking officers who opposed Great Mang’s late emperor, he directly said that in this world, apart from revering power, was there anything else?[1]

This sounded a bit cruel, but the existence of cultivators itself naturally created a hierarchy. That was why the battles in the world of cultivators would instead become simple and pure.

As long as a cultivator possessed power others couldn’t hope to reach, then no matter how many times he fails, no matter how many times his plans fall through, as long as he cannot be killed, then he will be the one who wins. He will remain the ruler of this world.

In reality, the exploration of the unknown lands and the pursuit of power had never stopped.

During all these years, as Great Mang’s dynasties changed several times, Purgatory Mountain had always sent its disciples and slaves into Sky Devil Prison Plains. This type of exploration was known by all cultivators of the world.

However, in reality, before Principal Zhang founded Yunqin Empire, he perhaps already entered the Ancient Witch Forest behind Great Desolate Swamp. Judging from the various signs, Brother Ming and his Big Black had a high chance of coming from Ancient Witch Forest. However, after discovering his own limitations by the Sacred Master level, he instead entered Frozen God Domain.

Meanwhile, for Sanskrit Temple, at the limits of what they always believed to be endless sand, also laid the hope for Sanskrit Temple to shatter their original fate.

…

It was just like a reincarnation of karma. Where it began, that was where it would inevitably return.

Lin Xi walked out of the carriage. He looked at the snowline and sky piercing glacier in front of him. He silently looked in Green Luan Academy’s direction, not speaking a single word.

Ice and snow as fine as that of Ten Fingers Ridge were brought over by the wind between the glaciers, scattering over his body.

Yunqin was extremely chaotic. The region Zhang Ping truly controlled was still only Central Continent City. His suspicions were extremely accurate. In a situation where he didn’t have a trace of soul force within him, becoming a completely ordinary person, those Flame Titans couldn’t trace his aura at all. That was why after breaking free from Zhang Ping’s blockade in Central Continent City, under the academy’s rescue, he didn’t pass through Four Seasons Plains, instead, he entered straight through the sea of mountains and entered Heaven Ascension Mountain Range from the side. When they arrived at Green Luan Academy again, they had to remain in front of the snowline for quite some time.

This was a period of time that couldn’t be saved. Both him and Nangong Weiyang had to enter Frozen God Domain in their best condition. During these few weeks of time, the two of them had already fully recovered under An Keyi’s care. However, for his body to not have any soul force for this long left him vacant and empty, as if he had lost his very soul. It was incredibly uncomfortable.

“Have you really decided to enter Frozen God Domain with us?”

After looking in Green Luan Academy’s direction for a long time, Lin Xi turned around to look at Qin Xiyue, saying seriously, “Frozen God Domain’s elevation is extremely high, the air extremely thin. Those who aren’t at the sacred level might not even be able to remain clear-headed… This is what the academy has previously recorded regarding Frozen God Domain. However, Nangong Weiyang has seen a True Dragon Guard who doesn’t have fingers or toes, so even those with sacred level cultivation will have a hard time.”

“You are an even better high ranking officer than me.” Qin Xiyue’s brows furrowed slightly, saying resolutely, “You should also understand that on the battlefield, one’s will is above everything else. The academy has prepared us even better than those True Dragon Guards. If I cannot maintain absolute clear-headedness like usual, it doesn’t matter. It is enough as long as I know that I have to follow the two of you.”

“I won’t become a burden for the two of you.” Qin Xiyue turned around to look at Nangong Weiyang, and then she looked at Lin Xi, saying this.

Lin Xi and Nangong Weiyang exchanged a look. Then, Lin Xi looked at her seriously. “We naturally understand the true meaning behind your words, but I really do not wish to see that kind of scene happen in front of me.”

“It is precisely because even you don’t have confidence, not even the confidence to return alive… that I have to follow you two.” Qin Xiyue looked into Lin Xi’s eyes. The decisiveness in her eyes didn’t change at all. “If you two cannot return, if I end up in Zhang Ping’s hands, my fate will become even more miserable. I definitely will not allow this to happen.”

“He placed everything unfair onto you, he wishes to destroy everything that used to belong to you. He wants everyone to feel that he is more powerful than you, he wants to become a devil king who controls this world.” Qin Xiyue looked in Green Luan Academy’s direction and said with a grim smile, “He can destroy Summer Spirit Lake, he can destroy the place where we lived and learned, but he will never be able to destroy the sentiments of those people, he will never be able to obtain me, even if it is just an additional spoil of war.”

“He is already a true devil king. For someone like him, if there is even one regret that cannot be satisfied, it will become his fatal weakness.” Nangong Weiyang gave Lin Xi a look, and then she turned around to look at the giant glacier that reached seemingly limitlessly into the heavens. “In a place of heavenly might like Frozen God Domain, cultivation is already no longer the decisive factor. I agree with her decision to take a risk with us and see if she can make it through.”

Lin Xi no longer persisted with his question. He reached out his hand, lightly patting Qin Xiyue’s shoulder.

Under this type of atmosphere, offset by the massive frozen peaks behind him, his action seemed exceptionally solemn and pure.

Gu Xinyin already entered Frozen God Domain.

When Lin Xi entered Frozen God Domain, the academy’s most important force was already thrown into Frozen God Domain.

Even though Gu Xinyin already brought back a signal that represented hope, everyone knew that no one could last that long in this type of place.

That was why it was soon time to part ways.

Lin Xi bowed slightly towards An Keyi. Then, he made a bold action, taking a step forward and giving An Keyi a light embrace. Then, he patted An Keyi’s back, quietly, but using all of his strength to say, “Take care.”

When he was at the academy, An Keyi was the teacher Lin Xi was closest to. Meanwhile, Lin Xi was also the only student An Keyi was closest to in the academy.

The two of them naturally shared sentiment that was far from normal. Meanwhile, at this type of time, regardless of whether it was Frozen God Domain or remaining in this world, their destiny was uncertain. That was why this was truly a potential eternal separation.

An Keyi obviously wanted to go into Frozen God Domain with Lin Xi, but she had to stay behind to make some medicine for the academy. With her skills, while Lin Xi was not in this world, she could still complete some tasks. That was why she originally didn’t know what kind of reaction she should have towards Lin Xi’s actions, but at this time, after her body went slightly rigid, she instead hugged Lin Xi even tighter.

“Take care.”

She also patted Lin Xi’s back, and then slowly stood still, letting the cold winds blow against her originally messy hair.

Lin Xi knew that he would never forget this scene in his life. He suddenly thought of something else, revealing a smile.

“Actually, there is a secret that I have never told you. The prescription for the medicine dealing with Devil Transformation is wrong. During the concoction process, I made some modifications myself.”

He looked at An Keyi, quietly saying this.
