Chapter 0853: The Raging Defying Ice Mound

The entrance of Grand Essence Ruins remained open at all times . Moreover, with no array formations or restrictions obstructing the entrance, anyone could enter .

Cultivators entering the Grand Essence Ruins usually formed a four-person team or at the very least a three-person group . Therefore, Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue’s team of two was an exceedingly rare one .

Besides, Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue were new cultivators . Therefore, if they didn’t take the initiative to find teammates to team up with for the tasks, very few people would actively come to find them .

Moreover, neither of them knew the rules and regulations of the Grand Essence Ruins very well . But since Ning Cheng wanted to go to the Grand Essence Seven Bridges, he didn’t want to team up with others . Therefore, after purchasing the Grand Essence Ruins’ latest map, he took Nalan Ruxue and followed the rest of the cultivators into the Grand Essence Ruins on an airship .

The airship flew inwards for a day before considerably slowing down . Ning Cheng, however, understood why . The various laws in the Grand Essence Ruins were in disarray, which meant that ordinary airships couldn’t fly through it at a fast pace . Ning Cheng didn’t want to expose the Starry Sky Wheel, so he could only use his celestial essence to hurry along with the other cultivators .

One had to marvel that even after tens of thousands of years, this place hadn’t withered yet .

After flying around for a few more days, Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue’s spiritual consciousness could no longer spot a single person around them . From this, they also understood the vastness of the Grand Essence Realm . No matter how many cultivators came in, thrown into the Grand Essence Realm, it was just like a drop of water in an ocean .

Reaching this place, they also started to discover the worthless and broken weapon fragments and the ruined buildings . From what they saw, this place most likely was a lively starry sky city countless years ago . Ning Cheng’s spiritual consciousness scanned the ruins but didn’t find anything of value . The first comers had long since cleaned up and turned over every inch of this place a long time ago .

Continuing to follow the directions on the map for another two days, the two eventually stopped at the sloping ice valley entrance . Standing there, the two could hear the whimpers coming from the ice valley below them . Some of the overflowing icy aura made Nalan Ruxue shiver subconsciously . Simultaneously, near the edge of the inclined entrance, the two also saw a huge ice sculpture lying on the ground . The ice sculpture had numerous cracks covering its surface, and only had one leg and one arm remaining .

“The aura from the Defying Ice Mound is too cold . ” Although Nalan Ruxue didn’t walk the path of body-forging, she was still a Heaven Seated cultivator . Yet, she felt chills even before entering the Defying Ice Mound .

Ning Cheng hesitated before speaking, “If you can’t bear it, you can enter my True Spirit World . ”

Nalan Ruxue refused without hesitation, “No . When I reached the starry sky from Heaven’s Way alone and started wandering around, I realised something . I realised that sometimes training out in the open is much more useful than hiding in the sect for secluded cultivation . ”

In fact, after entering the starry skies, Nalan Ruxue no longer was the pampered disciple from Thoughtless Academy . Instead, she had become an ordinary starry sky rogue cultivator, a starry sky wanderer . But what she had gained during those years while wandering the starry skies were countless times more precious than what she had experienced at the Thoughtless Academy . More importantly, she had grown more determined than before . Even she never thought that something like this would happen to her .

Before Ning Cheng had the time to say ‘let’s go inside’, several figures landed not far from them . It was a group of four cultivators, two men and two women .

All four of them had Eternal cultivations . One of them, a grey-robed woman, was already at the full-circle of the Eternal Realm . One of the male cultivators had a star on his forehead and was at the late-stage Eternal Realm . In comparison, the other male and female cultivators were at the early-stage Eternal Realm .

“Are you also going into the Defying Ice Mound?” The grey-robed female cultivator asked in surprise after seeing Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue .

“Yes, we’re heading to the Defying Ice Mound . ” Ning Cheng replied with a nod .

This grey-robed female cultivator dressed in old-fashioned attire and even wore a grey-coloured outfit . But even if she didn’t want to put up an appearance, her beauty didn’t lose out to Nalan Ruxue .

She shook her head and said, “I would advise you not to go inside . This Junior Apprentice Sister’s cultivation is only at the early-stage Heaven Seated Realm, and it’s not even stable . Entering the Defying Ice Mound with such cultivation would only result in her death . Although there are a lot of good things in Defying Ice Mound, if you can’t even keep your life, then it’s no use going after them . ”

Ning Cheng didn’t respond to her words . He understood that although this grey-robed female cultivator spoke some harsh words, she did have kind intentions .

Nalan Ruxue quickly bowed and said, “Many thanks, Senior Apprentice Sister, for the kind reminder . ”

After the grey-robed female cultivator finished speaking, she no longer cared about Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue and rushed into the Defying Ice Mound with her companions .

“Senior Apprentice Brother Ning… . . ” Nalan Ruxue looked at Ning Cheng with a little embarrassment . She wasn’t afraid of death but also didn’t want to hold Ning Cheng back .

Ning Cheng showed an indifferent smile, “Let’s go . Just because someone said something, why wouldn’t we go in?”

As the grey-robed female cultivator’s spiritual consciousness swept around, she immediately noticed Ning Cheng and Nalan Ruxue entering the Defying Ice Mound despite her warning . She just shook her head and continued forward; she wasn’t in the mood to care for them . She had already shown enough kindness by giving them that warning . If people didn’t want to accept her kindness, what else could she say?

“Sister Ning, they don’t appreciate your kindness . There’s no need for you to worry about such people . ” Next to the grey-robed female cultivator, the early-stage Eternal woman noticed her shaking her head and took the initiative to speak up .

The grey-robed female cultivator smiled, “It’s not too much to worry about them, but it’s also not easy to cultivate to Heaven Seated Realm . It’s especially not worth it if you’re just going to leave your life here . As far as I know, all tasks for entering the Defying Ice Mound are high-grade quests . For a Heaven Seated cultivator to take up any of them, is just suicide . Forget it . We’re about to enter the ice mound, so pay attention and take out your defensive weapons . ”

The other three had already brought out their defensive weapons even without the reminder from the grey-robed female cultivator . They became even more cautious with their actions .

“Wu-Wu… . ” Waves of ice knife lights swept over with a whimpering sound before hitting the defences of the four people . Even with fully activating the defensive weapons, they still involuntarily shuddered while facing these icy knife lights .

“These icy knife lights are a bit too much . ” The early-stage Eternal male cultivator walking behind them spoke up in surprise .

The grey-robed female cultivator spoke with a cautious tone, “The icy knife lights of the Defying Ice Mound contain ice-attributed laws . Even if you go to other icy regions, you won’t find such strong ice blades containing law dao charm . It’s what makes this place an ideal environment to understand ice-attributed laws . At the same time, it’s also easy to get caught up in law-related epiphanies here, so be careful . ”

As soon as the grey-robed female cultivator finished speaking, a horrifying roar sounded out, and deathly repression suddenly surged over the four .

“Not good, it’s the Defying Ice Storm, run … . ” The grey-robed female cultivator quickly rushed out after speaking .

Even without the grey-robed female cultivator’s warning, the others also knew that the Defying Ice Mound’s Defying Ice Storm was the most violent thing in this region . Moreover, the Defying Ice Storm contained chaotic law attributes; combined with its large size; it produced an extremely damaging impact . Moreover, there was no way to resist it directly . If ordinary Eternal cultivators got caught up in this Defying Ice Storm, they would have no choice but to wait for death .

“Boom-Boom-Boom… . . ” The Defying Ice Storm’s chaotic ice laws swept through the four like an avalanche .

After an incense stick’s worth of time, the most violent part of the Defying Ice Storm passed away . However, the Defying Ice Knife Lights behind it still swept over them like an endless barrage . Fortunately, the Defying Ice Storm travelled in a straight line, and the grey-robed female cultivator’s group of four managed to escape by a hair’s breadth . They then huddled together in a small rocky opening at the side . However, the Defying Ice Knife Lights had no directions . Therefore, the four had to team up and bring out their best defensive weapons to block the Defying Ice Knife Lights’ endless barrage .

“I’m afraid we might lose our lives today . ” The grey-robed female cultivator watched the endless ice-law blades hitting the defensive weapons and spoke with a solemn tone .

The others didn’t speak . They knew about the Defying Ice Storm before they came to the Defying Ice Mound . It’s just that they never expected that they would have such bad luck to encounter the Defying Ice Storm the moment they entered . Even after the Defying Ice Storm passed, the ice-law blades would continue to rage for several days or even months from what they knew . Now, the four had no choice but to hide in this corner . If they could support the consumption for a few days, it wouldn’t be much of a problem . But if they had to block these ice-law blades for a few months, they simply wouldn’t be able to keep up .

“If these Defying Ice Knife Lights didn’t dissipate in three days, we would have no choice but to rush out together . ” The late-stage Eternal male cultivator with a star on his forehead spoke with a solemn tone .

Hiding in a corner among ice and rocks to resist these Defying Ice Knife Light was a much easier option than rushing out . But it was a question of if they could sustain it .

As the sound of the roar swept over, Ning Cheng felt the ice-laws within the knife lights for the first time .

Nalan Ruxue shivered . The ice-law blades hadn’t swept over yet, but she already couldn’t bear the cold .

“That… . ” Nalan Ruxue then saw the horrifying Defying Ice Storm rushing towards them . She only had time to say one word before the law aura contained within it sealed her and she could no longer speak .

“Boom-Boom-Boom……” The Defying Ice Storm rolled up endless ice-law blades as it passed by them . Submerged within these ice-law blades, Nalan Ruxue couldn’t even stand straight, let alone put up some resistance .

“I’m okay?” Nalan Ruxue then quickly noticed a huge thunder fort shielding her and Ning Cheng . As the Defying Ice Storm blasted over the thunder fort, it triggered a cascade of debris and lightning arcs that looked like a goddess showering resplendent flower petals from the sky .

Ning Cheng didn’t enjoy the same luck as the grey-robed female cultivator and couldn’t find a place to hide in time . Moreover, he also had no idea about the power within the Defying Ice Storm . At least, he had no idea about it before using the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort to block it .

When the Defying Ice Storm’s violent ice laws blasted onto the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort, Ning Cheng almost lost control .

The violent ice laws within the storm even blasted open a gap within the blue thunder fort’s defences, and several ice-law knife lights rushed inside through it . Fortunately, Ning Cheng stood in front of Nalan Ruxue . Therefore, these violent ice-law knife lights could only open a few bloody gashes on Ning Cheng’s body .

If Nalan Ruxue had stood in the front, just a single strike would have caused the collapse of her corporeal body . This law-related attack wasn’t something that Nalan Ruxue, an early-stage Heaven Seated cultivator, could bear .

As Ning Cheng stabilised the fort, the Defying Ice Storm, which seemed like the Milky Way from his viewpoint, finally got blocked out by the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort . If the grey-robed female cultivator had seen this, she probably might have fainted from the shock .

Facing such terrifying Defying Ice Storm, apart from dodging to the side, even Dao Sculpting experts wouldn’t dare to block it with defensive weapons . An Eternal cultivator using a weapon to defend against the Defying Ice Storm was not only a crazy idea but also a useless one .

Ning Cheng wasn’t a crazy person, but he truly did defend against it . Apart from the Everlasting Blue Thunder Fort’s power, his celestial essence and Sea of Consciousness had long surpassed the Eternal Realm’s bounds .

As the most violent part of the Defying Ice Storm passed by quickly, the endless Defying Ice Blades that came behind it couldn’t threaten Ning Cheng at all . Ning Cheng could easily defend against these Defying Ice Blades for several months without doing anything .
