Chapter 538: The Gray-Robed Male Beneath the Layer of Ice
Translator: Radiant Editor: Radiant
“Father, ever since I and Xue Ying came over, we have never minded the dangers. Furthermore, the two of us came as avatars, and you don’t have to be worried about us.” Jing Qiu transmitted a message over, “Also, we discovered a place called the blood fire door.”
Jing Qiu introduced the everything thoroughly once through. This was something Xue Ying agreed with.
There was no need to hide anything from his own father-in-law.
“Getting through the selection, and you will not be attacked in ordinary regions, and as long as one accidentally barge into the important grounds, one will merely be chased out? Only by resisting would one be killed?” Monarch Mo Xue was startled. He immediately understood the importance of this guest identity!
“Alright.” A new desire began growing within Monarch Mo Xue.
With his son-in-law’s help, he might possibly escape out of this place and reincarnate!
“Daughter, I am too deep within the Lake Heart Island, and could only use karma to sense my location approximately. Furthermore, I’ve entered several dangerous grounds as I was escaping, fortunately surviving through before arriving here! This road I came is also a road which Xue Ying can’t come along the same path I took.” Monarch Mo Xue transmitted over. Primarily, it was because Nine Yang Palace Head and the others were too ruthless in their pursuit. Otherwise, why would Monarch Mo Xue charge into the dangerous areas? Nine Yang Palace Head and the others would not dare to gamble their lives off.
“Father, tell us your position first.” Jing Qiu transmitted a message over.
******
Hu.
Crossing through the internal section of Lake Heart Island, the surrounding place was all frozen and covered in layers of ice. Xue Ying was instead, quite carefree as he wasn’t attacked at all.
“This feeling is truly awesome.” Xue Ying revealed a grin.
Previously, he was experiencing battle after battle with fear and trepidation. If not for Monarch Armadillo Jade, he and his wife might not reach the ground where the true god weapon was hidden at. That was also because Monarch Mo Xue had placed it at a more safer place.
“Mn?” Xue Ying received the map transmitted by his wife.
“So deep in?” Xue Ying frowned.
Monarch Mo Xue seemed to be at a distance beyond 100 billion kilometers from the boundary of the Lake Heart Island outer perimeter! This was also solely talking about the straight path distance, and due to the arrangement of the Lake Heart ISland, it was in reality an extremely far distance.
“Slowly proceed.”
Because he was safe, Xue Ying could completely use the most basic method–to just keep proceeding closer to the position of Monarch Mo Xue! If he could not get through a passage, he would simply take another!
Time passed.
One day, two days, three days…
Xue Ying had crossed through a depth more than hundred times that when he first came. Yet not a single battle happened.
“This is truly mystical.” Xue Ying looked forward. The end of this passage was actually a spatial maelstrom. If Xue Ying did not have the confidence, he would not dare to casually enter. None would know where one would be teleported after tunneling through the maelstrom! Clearly, this was a spatial tunnel, and would lead to some sort of place.
“Turn.” Xue Ying did not hesitate in turning back before following his original path to find another side path to continue.
The inner section of Lake Heart ISland was too big.
There were also few stage four World Deities and powerful existences who came here from the Deity world and abyss–Xue Ying had not met any single one of them! But the places he moved through had been recorded on a very detailed map.
…
In the blink of an eye, one month passed. Even though Xue Ying was rerouting frequently, he was using his fastest pace to proceed. Any places that seemed more unique and dangerous were avoided. Thus, he had yet to meet any trouble as he proceeded along the ordinary regions. A month’s time had shortened the distance by about 250 billion kilometers.
“Hu.”
Within a passage that was entirely black, Xue Ying was flying at top speed.
The passage might be covered in thick ice layers, but one could see that deep within the icy layers, there were some kind of black material.
“Peng.” Xue Ying waved his hand, causing a white light to shoot out, blasting off a large piece of icy layer, revealing the dark black corridor walls. The black corridor walls even had some simple patterns imprinted on it, though it gave off a bizarre charm.
“The deeper into the Lake Heart Island, I can finally see some structures.” Xue Ying thought. And now, these structures were all sealed in ice.
“What is that?”
Xue Ying suddenly stopped. He turned around towards the icy layer which he just passed.
Within that thick icy layer, there was a humanoid figure appearing and disappearing. He was seated cross-legged inside.
“No armor?”
“Seated cross-legged?”
Xue Ying went high up the sky, carefully paying close notice through the icy layer. This icy layer was very thick, and there was a gray-robed male seated cross-legged within. He was entirely frozen in ice.
“I’ve seen truly many things over the one month here. I can be considered to be quite deep within the Lake Heart Island, but those icy sculptures would all be wearing armors.” Xue Ying thought, “This is the first time I’ve seen one without an armor.”
Xue Ying had some sort of impulse which caused him to ponder about what was happening.
“Whatever.
“Even if this gray-robed male is someone formidable in a certain area of Lake Heart Island, I am not deliberately interrupting. With my identity as a guest, he should not directly kill me off.” Xue Ying decided in his head. He waved his hand immediately, causing many white edges to fly out from his fingertips, clashing and tearing apart the icy layer. Hua hua hua, large amounts of icy layer began crumbling apart.
The icy layer which was more than a hundred meters thick began shattering apart. The luminous sun force was controlled exquisitely, not harming the gray-robed male at all. The other surrounding icy layer was completely shattered apart as well, revealing the figure of the gray-robed male.
He was seated cross-legged without emitting any aura.
“Dead?” Xue Ying immediately determined the case after sensing him, “His true deity heart is gone?”
Xue Ying operated a strand of luminous sun force to permeate through this gray-robed male corpse. Indeed, it was empty, though this corpse made Xue Ying changed his expression because the moment his luminous sun force went tunneling through along his nose, he discovered that the muscles and nerves and organs of this corpse were truly powerful.
“He is absolute a powerful existence, and also one who cultivated his body to an extremely high realm.” Xue Ying thought.
“But the question is who is he?”
Xue Ying carefully inspected him, “From the aura of his body, he should be from Deity world and not the Dark Abyss. But the powerful existences in the history of my Deity world, including those who died, I should know all of them. Yet I can’t recognize him.”
Xue Ying frowned as he looked carefully at this gray-robed male in front of him. An unfamiliar powerful existence. The history had not recorded the existence of him at all.
“But it isn’t entirely exhaustive for those who were recorded in the history of Deity world, like the master of Lake Heart Island, he isn’t recorded in the history either.” Xue Ying guessed.
His vision landed on the wrist of this gray-robed male. There was a scarlet red wristband on his wrist. Waving his hand, this scarlet red wristband began flying over. This was the only treasure left behind on the body of this gray-robed male corpse. He, Xue Ying, was still not someone who would take away the clothes of a dead cultivator despite that robe being a top grade World Deity rank equipment.
The scarlet red wristband was a storage treasure, and also a very unique World Deity weapon used for battling.
“Interesting, even though it is a World Deity weapon, its power seemed very big.” Xue Ying had a change in his expression inwardly. During the moment he refined this scarlet red wristband, he immediately discovered the ancient array within the inner section of this wristband. That mighty array seemed dark and unpredictable, causing Xue Ying to feel jittery. The inner section of the array had been a piece of stable time-space, “This is a weapon that could seal the enemy into the ‘time-space’ within. As long as I activate this weapon, I’ll be able to keep the enemy into this time-space.”
“Who is the one who refined the profound mystery within this weapon? I feel that the cultivation eden Crimson Rock Mountain could not compare to it.” Xue Ying frowned, “And this gray-robed male corpse is someone I can’t recognize either.”
“Whatever.”
If he could not get an answer, he would temporarily throw it aside. Regardless of what, this gray-robed male should have died for an unknown period of time, and he was also deep within the Lake Heart Island.
“There are even some other material goods within. Maybe from these goods, I could discover his identity.” Xue Ying probed through it with his consciousness. The insides of the wristband had been divided into close to a hundred layers, and one of the layer of time-space had been saved for material goods to be placed within.
