The man left quietly, giving Jiang Chen a great shock. Who is he? Why is he trapped within the ice for so long? Does it mean that he willingly chose to be trapped? No one knew the answer.
Unstoppable. That was how an expert was supposed to be. Jiang Chen felt moved, without that person, he would’ve been clueless, perhaps, there was something much more powerful than the Emperor Realm.
Although everything happened in an instant, like a dream, Jiang Chen still felt it.
The Cold River Stone fell on the Ancient Dragon Sacrificial Altar. The altar was thoroughly destroyed, Jiang Chen’s attention was on the Cold River Stone. That guy did not even take the Cold River Stone as if he left it for him.
At this moment, Luo Binsi saw it too, both of them were eyeing the same thing.
Although Luo Binsi was shocked by that person’s strength, he was not afraid of Jiang Chen. He’s pretty excited now that the threat has left.
“This Cold River Stone is mine!” Luo Binsi said.
Even his own ancestor wanted the Cold River Stone, saying that it was the Snow Emperor’s treasure. A terrifying weapon born from the fusion of the Heart of Frost and the Icy Cold Throne.
“Boy, you better not go against me. Otherwise, you’ll die a terrible death.” Luo Binsi stared at Jiang Chen.
Both of them moved simultaneously. However, Jiang Chen’s Great Void Technique was faster. Even though Luo Binsi was already prepared for it, he was no match to Jiang Chen and lost the Cold River Stone.
“Your ancestor has been turned to ash, what gives you the confidence now?” Jiang Chen said in disdain.
Luo Binsi was still cocky as he was fuming in anger.
“The Cold River Stone is not yours. It’s our clan’s supreme treasure. Hand it to me and you may live. Otherwise, you’ll never see the light of day.”
“Clueless fool.” Jiang Chen said with biting cold eyes.
Although he’s not a match against an Emperor Realm soul, a mere orphan of the Ice Emperor Wolf Clan was nothing.
“Grey Wolf Strike!” Luo Binsi roared and launched a strike with all his might, trying to get his hands on the Cold River Stone.
“I have a blade that could cut the Heavens, Earth, Moon, Stars, Sun apart.”
Jiang Chen unsheathed his trusted blade and sent out an unstoppable blade strike!
Luo Binsi’s pupil contracted and his expression changed drastically. His Grey Wolf Strike was immediately shattered by Jiang Chen’s blade. At this moment, he finally realised how powerful Jiang Chen was, to talk back against his ancestor. His breath was slowly fading when he realised everything, it was already too late.
“No… I cannot die… I am the last successor of my clan…” Luo Binsi murmured as he quietly fell down, turning into a palm-sized crystal.
Jiang Chen smirked. The Ice Emperor Wolf Clan has now vanished from the trace of the world.
A palm-sized crystal appeared in Jiang Chen’s palm.
“This should be the Divine Origin Essence, I’ve read it in our clan’s ancient text. It appeared once in the Lone Dragon County and caused a dozen Emperor experts to fight for it. The casualties of that battle were immense and were recorded as part of history. It’s value is unknown. In the past, there was an Emperor Realm expert who refined a whole dragon vein but only got half an inch of Divine Origin Essence. This thing would even move an Emperor Realm expert. To think this Ice Emperor Wolf Clan fella devoured the whole dragon vein’s Supreme Grade Divine Origin Stones. That essence is probably four inches long.”
Yu Huagan took a deep breath. It was his greatest fortune to witness a Divine Origin Essence. However, he dared not covet it. The dragon vein was originally owned by the three clans but now that the other patriarchs was gone, this dragon vein was his to take.
Even though there weren’t any Supreme Grade Divine Origin Ores anymore, the remaining Divine Origin Ores were still astronomical.
Moreover, Jiang Chen saved him countless times, he would’ve died many times if it wasn’t for him. He’s not a thankless man, this item was Jiang Chen’s to take.
“Excellent, this is a rare item, it should be able to help me reach the Hierarch Realm.” Jiang Chen smiled happily.
The Cold River Stone and the Divine Origin Essence were great items that could move the world. However Jiang Chen felt somewhat worried as the man-in-ice left. Who is he?
“Cold River Stone, great stuff. Not even a Hierarch expert could suppress me now that I have this.” Jiang Chen thought.
However, the Cold River Stone had no reaction when he tried to activate it.
“This is f*cking awkward.” Jiang Chen thought.
“This Cold River Stone appeared in my inheritance memories, it’s extremely powerful, you cannot activate it at your current strength. Perhaps, when you reach the Hierarch Realm you’ll be able to do it.” The Fire Qilin’s voice sounded in Jiang Chen’s mind, his tone was somewhat ridiculing.
“You, this fella, might as well say that I’m weak. Dammit.” Jiang Chen said angrily.
He was feeling depressed as he could not utilise the powerful treasure that he had.
However, Jiang Chen did not ponder on it any longer. The Cold River Stone was a treasure of Emperor Realm experts. It’s only logical that he’s unable to activate it, not just anyone could. The Divine Origin Essence has its own use for him as he could use it to swiftly reach the Hierarch Realm.
“It’s time for me to leave.”
Jiang Chen must quickly return to Linhe Boundary to save his father and quickly depart to the Qilian Region as there were people waiting for him there.
Jiang Chen cleaved a road apart as his trusted blade roared. Jiang Chen brought Yu Huagan out from the underground dragon vein.
“Sir, are you that in a hurry? My Yu Clan has not repaid your favour.”
Yu Huagan wanted to ask Jiang Chen to stay. However, Jiang Chen’s decision was already made.
“Don’t need it. Tell Yu Jingxian I don’t blame her.” Jiang Chen said with a smile and shook his head.
He glanced towards the mine, and sighed as he left.
“Eh?”
Yu Huagan looked up and saw Jiang Chen had already disappeared into the clouds.
Yu Huagan’s expression became solemn as he sighed. Jiang Chen was extremely talented and powerful and could not be kept in such a rural place. However, he did not know the meaning of his last sentence. Does it mean that her daughter knew something about Jiang Chen?
