Chapter 1411: North Sea Glaciers
Suddenly, a storm brewed in the cultivation world of Tianhuang Mainland and news after news spread one after another, causing a huge uproar with countless cultivators of sects shocked!
"Have you heard? Desolate Martial isn't dead. He appeared in the South Region a while ago!"
"I've heard about it as well. I heard that the primordial divine spring even appeared in the South Region and was occupied by the Nangong aristocratic family."
"It seems like Desolate Martial fought against the three aristocratic families. However, I don't know the exact details."
Back then, when Su Zimo killed many Mighty Figures of the Dongfang and Ximen aristocratic families underground in Beiming Town as well as two Half-Martial Ancestors, the two aristocratic families remained silent about this matter and kept it a secret.
Who would publicize something as such openly?
Therefore, although news of the reappearance of Desolate Martial spread in the cultivation world, nobody knew what exactly happened in the South Region.
"This Desolate Martial sure is lucky. He didn't die even after being exiled into the void by a Half-Martial Ancestor."
"I heard that Desolate Martial has already entered the Conjoint Body realm!"
"If he's at the Conjoint Body realm, the only people who can stop him in the cultivation world are probably Half-Martial Ancestors!"
Chaos Essence Sect.
Di Fan sat in his cave abode with a dark expression when he heard the news from his disciples.
He said in a deep voice, "Send some more cultivators to the South Region to investigate the location of Desolate Martial. Report to me immediately if there's any news."
"Master, if Desolate Martial is at the Conjoint Body realm, it means that he must have already fused three Supreme Dharmic Bodies. It'll probably be troublesome,"
A cultivator said in a deep voice.
"Humph!"
Di Fan remarked coldly, "No matter how strong he is, he has only just entered the Conjoint Body realm! A Half-Martial Ancestor is not somebody that any Conjoint Body Mighty Figure can challenge across a major cultivation realm!"
"Yes!"
The cultivator replied hurriedly.
After pondering for a moment, Di Fan continued, "You don't have to worry. If I attack again, I won't be alone. This time round, even if I have to join forces with the other Half-Martial Ancestors, I'll kill Desolate Martial completely!"
In the cultivation world, there were people who were filled with hatred and worry when they heard that Desolate Martial was still alive. Naturally, there were also people that rejoiced.
Ethereal Peak, Great Zhou Dynasty's Ji Yaoxue, Hundred Refinement Sect's Extreme Fire, Elixir Yang Sect's Xiaoning, Demoness Ji of the fiend sects…
It was not only the cultivation world of Tianhuang Mainland—even the major forbidden grounds were shaken!
The fact that Desolate Martial was alive was nothing much for the major forbidden grounds.
What truly stirred a storm in the forbidden grounds was the news from Penglai Island!
The Dragon Phoenix had descended!
Furthermore, this Dragon Phoenix was one of Desolate Martial's true bodies!
The moment the news was sent, it alarmed the Ancestor realm experts of the various forbidden grounds!
"I heard that the Dragon Phoenix has already returned to the Dragon Bone Valley. It's not convenient for us to attack anymore."
"Yes, that old fart of the Dragon race should still be alive! It's indeed not easy with him around."
"Actually, there's no need to worry,"
A powerful humanoid living being said slowly, "For a taboo to grow, it requires immense resources. There's no way it can advance to the Ancestor realm without an extremely long period of time!"
"That's right! Although the bloodline of a taboo is strong, it's extremely difficult to advance to the Ancestor realm, let alone become an Emperor!"
"Furthermore, that old thing from the Dragon race doesn't have many years to live,"
Another humanoid living being said indifferently, "That old thing will probably die before the Dragon Phoenix can grow further! Without him, the Dragon race will be like a python without fangs. They'll still be slaughtered by us!"
"What about Desolate Martial's Green Lotus True Body?"
Another person asked, "I heard that his Green Lotus True Body isn't dead either and has already entered the Conjoint Body realm."
"That's easy,"
Someone said, "There's no sect or faction in the human race that can protect him. Even without us making a move, any Half-Martial Ancestor can kill him!"
"Furthermore, there are some monster incarnates among the younger generation of the primordial races in this generation."
"For example, the God race's Firmament Emperor, Goddess Xiaoxiang; the Golden Crow race's seventh prince; the Rakshasa race's Rakshasa Yu; the Witch race's Young Master Arcane Ghost; the Blood Vine race's Teng Lingzi; and Savage Eye of our Heavenly Eye race. Any one of them is enough to kill Desolate Martial!"
"That's right. The birth of these monster incarnates of the primordial races is a catastrophe for the cultivation world of Tianhuang Mainland!" Another humanoid living being grinned with a cruel expression.
Another person seemed to have recalled something and lamented with a soft sigh, "However, although Savage Eye's talent and wisdom are strong and he was willing to destroy his own eyes in order to cultivate the Heavenly Eye, his accomplishments are probably still inferior to that person back then."
"You mean that abandoned child from back then?"
"That's right. That lad was born after his mother copulated with a human cultivator. Therefore, his bloodline is impure and he's considered as a bastard child that's despised by his clansmen."
"To think that he would display an extremely terrifying potential after he joined the Buddhist sects of the human race! Although his bloodline was impure, his combat strength was stronger than any of the Heavenly Eye race beings! He became the strongest young cultivator of the human race in that generation!"
Another person nodded with a reminiscent gaze. "Back then, only that remnant beast of the Blood Vine race could fight him. Unfortunately, both of them died many years ago."
"Forget it, let's not talk about such stuff anymore. It's a long time ago."
"Two taboos have descended one after another. Seems like this generation is indeed unusual."
"The fortune of the human race is depleted and no one can stop our primordial races from returning to rule over Tianhuang Mainland once more! The human race has occupied Tianhuang Mainland for so many years. It's time for them to return it to us!"
…
North Region.
The Extreme North Region was filled with glaciers and snowy mountains!
Indeed, there was the North Sea among the three oceans. However, the surface of the North Sea was frozen for 10,000 years and the ice layer was at least dozens of feet thick!
A piercing cold wind blew here all year round. In the Dao Inheritance Ground, the first stage of the Three Tribulations Domain, the Extreme North Yin Wind, was the cold wind outside the North Sea!
In the depths of the North Sea Glaciers, even Conjoint Body Mighty Figures did not dare to venture deep!
That was because the depths of the North Sea Glaciers was one of the nine forbidden grounds of Tianhuang Mainland.
That was the legendary Beiming!
In such an adverse environment, it was completely deserted and no cultivators would come here.
Even vegetation could not be seen on the North Sea Glaciers.
However, this day, a person arrived on the North Sea Glaciers.
The person looked young and wore purple robes. His black hair draped over his shoulders and his eyes were clear. With a refined appearance, he headed towards the depths of the glaciers.
Although the person's purple robes were thin, he did not seem to feel cold and his face was rosy.
A bone-chilling Yin wind howled.
When it blew on that person, it vanished instantly as though it was evaporated!
The snowflakes that filled the skies above the glaciers fell within ten feet of that person and turned into water droplets as well.
The person advanced slowly without a single snowflake falling on his body!
The purple-robed young man was the Martial Dao Prime Body that had rushed over from the South Region!
By the time the Martial Dao Prime Body arrived at the North Sea Glaciers, the Dragon Phoenix True Body had already returned to the Dragon Bone Valley and entered the Ancestral Dragon Ground.
Thereafter, the Dragon Phoenix True Body severed its connection with the two true bodies and cultivated in seclusion.
The reason why the Martial Dao Prime Body came to the North Sea that was frozen for thousands of kilometers was for a single objective.
Bei means North and Ming is just another way of describing a sea or ocean in this case
