Chapter 1141 - 1142: Ice Phoenix
"Primordial Ancient Realm?" Ye Qingcheng's beautiful eyes flickered.
"Yes!"
Xiao Jiu nodded and continued, "It's said that the Primordial Ancient Realm is at the edge of the Primordial Continent, but it is actually a separate realm. Generally, only those below Martial Emperor have the opportunity to enter here. Those like Martial Emperors or above do not have this chance because there is a powerful barrier preventing entry. Even Martial Emperors cannot step into this place at all!"
"Does this mean it's a place for prodigies to temper themselves?" Ye Qingcheng's beautiful eyes shone with curiosity.
"Not exactly!" Xiao Jiu, knowledgeable as always, explained, "More precisely, it is a place of fortuity. In the Primordial Continent, many at the Martial King Ninth Layer wishing to step into the Martial Emperor Realm generally come here to seek fortuity. In other words, in the Primordial World, only here can one find Imperial Qi. Therefore, for people of the Primordial Continent, normally before stepping into the Martial Emperor Realm, they come here to experience the baptism of Imperial Qi!"
"Why doesn't the Immortal Realm have such a place?" Ye Qingcheng asked.
"In the Immortal Realm, places abound with Immortal Emperor Qi, so there is naturally no equivalent place. Now we are both at the Martial Immortal Ninth Layer and have come to this world, considered the lowest tier. We must proceed carefully, or else we might perish here before even finding the Imperial Qi!"
Actually, Xiao Jiu wanted to say, you're unrivaledly beautiful, no one would bear to kill you, but I sure as hell might be expendable.
"Yes!" Ye Qingcheng nodded.
Xiao Jiu continued, "However, finding Immortal Emperor Qi is not that simple, either. It depends on one's fate. On the surface, the Primordial Ancient Realm seems similar to the outside world, but in reality, it is not!"
"Moreover, even in the Primordial Continent, many disciples of Ancient Kingdom sects establish sect powers here to conveniently obtain Immortal Emperor Qi. As a result, the Primordial Ancient Realm actually resembles the outside world, with sects, cities, and Ancient Kingdoms!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng was quite astonished, a small Ancient Realm so complex.
From Xiao Jiu's words, Ye Qingcheng also understood that since Immortal Emperors cannot enter, those at the Immortal King Ninth Layer are the strongest here.
Nevertheless, Xiao Jiu seemed to pick up on Ye Qingcheng's thoughts.
He said, "The true rulers here are the Martial Emperors!"
"Didn't you say Martial Emperors can't enter?" Ye Qingcheng was a bit puzzled, and Xiao Jiu explained, "Martial Emperors can't enter, but they can break through within the Ancient Realm. Generally speaking, each Ancient Kingdom, sect, has a Martial Emperor overseeing it, who broke through within the Ancient Realm!"
After hearing Xiao Jiu's explanation, Ye Qingcheng fully understood.
Although Martial Emperors cannot enter, breaking through within the Ancient Realm is a different matter.
"Let's go!" Xiao Jiu said, and Ye Qingcheng nodded.
However, at this moment, several hostile gazes fell upon them. These people were none other than the Demon Emperor, Saint Potian, Zai Tian, Jiuxian He, and others.
These people were dazzling prodigies in the Immortal Realm, ripping open the barrier and entering the Primordial Ancient Realm was no surprise, and all were descendants of the Five Emperors of the Immortal Realm.
Now the entire Immortal Realm was ruled by Tianyu International; they were no longer Princes or Crown Princes, not to mention Ye Qingcheng, Xiao Jiu, and Xiao Tianyu's intricate connections, thus naturally seeing the duo as enemies.
"I never expected to meet you here!" Zai Mo's voice was cold. Xiao Jiu spoke lightly, "Just a bunch of dethroned Crown Princes, I guess you can only roam around in the Primordial Ancient Realm now!"
"You..." Zai Mo's eyes showed icy murder, while Saint Potian spoke, "Brother Zai, this is not the time; one day, I'll make them know the consequences of speaking those words!"
"Indeed!" the Demon Emperor agreed, "The right path is to cultivate well now; when we become Emperors, we'll surely return to the Immortal Realm, slay our enemies, and avenge our fallen nations!"
"Let's go!" Jiuxian He said.
The voice fell, and the group left with an air of indifference.
Xiao Jiu watched them leave, smiling carelessly, clearly unconcerned.
Since Xiao Jiu didn't care, Ye Qingcheng naturally wouldn't care either; for her, it was unnecessary.
Then, the two transformed into a gust of wind, soaring into the sky.
"Do you know where your boss is?" Along the way, Ye Qingcheng couldn't help but ask. Ever since the Five Immortal Capitals were destroyed, Xiao Tianyu vanished like thin air, and Xiao Jiu naturally understood Ye Qingcheng's feelings.
After all, Ye Qingcheng's affection for Xiao Tianyu in the Immortal Realm wasn't a secret; the only puzzling thing to Xiao Jiu was why Xiao Tianyu ignored such a peerless beauty.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jiu smiled slightly, "The boss is elusive; I currently don't know where he is, maybe he returned to Earth, or perhaps he's still in the Immortal Realm, just doesn't want to see us!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng said no more, yet a trace of coldness emanated from her, keeping people at a distance, but Xiao Jiu wasn't surprised, for he knew well that besides Xiao Tianyu, no one could elicit a smile from this icy beauty.
After the two traveled for several days,
Buzz~
Gales lashed out; a powerful demonic wind attacked, growing more terrifying and bone-chilling, as if freezing all heaven and earth.
Hmm?
Ye Qingcheng frowned slightly, a sharp gleam flashed through her cool eyes.
In no time, they saw a massive pair of wings envelop the void, seemingly covering half the sky. Judging by the aura, it was at least a Martial King Level demon beast, yet extremely resplendent.
"Ice Phoenix!" Xiao Jiu's expression revealed shock, wondering if his luck was terrible, having just arrived to be targeted by such a formidable beast?
Indeed, this demonic beast was the Ice Phoenix.
However, Xiao Jiu secretly felt fortunate that the Ice Phoenix was still in its juvenile phase; otherwise, it would undeniably be an invincible existence.
Moreover, the Phoenix itself is one of the Ten Great Divine Beasts, quite rare, and even more so in the Desolate Ancient Realm; however, here appeared a juvenile Divine Beast Ice Phoenix.
"Saintess, I'll handle this; you just wait to enjoy some phoenix meat!" Xiao Jiu said to Ye Qingcheng, imagining phoenix meat must be delicious.
Now at the Martial Immortal Ninth Layer, with his talent, he might be able to fight it. So, he soared into the air, his aura flourished, immortal power erupted, enveloping the Ice Phoenix in celestial glow.
Buzz~
The Ice Phoenix seemed provoked, let out a long cry, resonating through heaven and earth. Following that, a terrifying icy will rushed toward Xiao Jiu, freezing ten thousand miles, causing Xiao Jiu to shiver involuntarily, who found the icy will extremely formidable, truly deserving as one of the Ten Great Divine Beasts.
Swoosh~
Then, Xiao Jiu stomped the void, boom boom boom, shattering the ice covering him. A Celestial Halberd appeared in his hand, slicing through the void, leaving a gleaming, unstoppable, razor-sharp trail.
