Chapter 546: Sealed Frozen Like One Had Fallen into an Ice Pit

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A penetrating sense of iciness slowly exuded from the piece of Bone of Ice G.o.d. It crept into him.

Yun Yang wanted to block the iciness. Since the beginning, he had not planned to use this piece of bone himself; after all, there was only a piece of it and he did not know if the Four Seasons Tower had any arcane to test or understand it. It was unsafe and incomplete.

However, ever since he carried the bone with him, firstly the iciness that felt so different in and of itself, and secondly, it had brought with it a huge hidden power that surged towards Yun Yang's body like a river chasing the ocean. He could not stop it, his body felt like an endless abyss.

Yun Yang cultivated the Endless Divine Art, doing everything he could to sever the icy energy from himself. In spite of this, something unimaginable happened.

Once the Endless Divine Art was cultivated, it was like a dam was instantly broken. The icy strength bolted into him with a bang!

"Oh…" Yun Yang shuddered.

Out of the blue, he blurted, "Emmie?"

Other than Emmie, no one else could do something like this! His hand was already grabbing the Bone of Ice G.o.d that was in his embrace, prepared to toss it away at any given moment if he could not sever the overwhelming flow of energy. But he changed his mind at this moment. He allowed the burst of iciness to rush into his meridians before they vanished as expected.

It didn't take much time, only about as long as a single breath, before the icy energy halted abruptly. It seemed like Emmie had stopped absorbing the power.

Yun Yang nervously watched the Bone of Ice G.o.d in his hand, distinctly feeling that the extreme iciness had faded very much. Thankfully, the piece of bone remained in its original shape and feel.

"Lucky!"

Yun Yang felt deeply about the discernable result of his previous teaching to Emmie – it could digest all of what was given to it but it must not touch what was not given! Even if it were to take it, it could only take half of it. Now, it seemed that Emmie had observed the rule closely, taking only half of the energy within.

"But this half that Emmie ingested must be the essence of all…" Yun Yang chuckle was void of humor.

"What's left… might not be from following the rule but… Emmie's disdain from taking more."

Yun Yang's prediction was basically ninety percent accurate – from what he understood of Emmie.

"Emmie? Emmie?" Yun Yang called out a few times but there was nothing from his consciousness s.p.a.ce.

"Can't connect…" sighed Yun Yang.

Riding Reddie, Yun Yang who was moving towards the Residence of Yun jerked suddenly after making moving forward some seventy feet. He recalled something – he had lost the connection with his divine sense s.p.a.ce but from what had happened just now, Emmie could still absorb external energy.

The Ice G.o.d's bone obviously had a ma.s.sive energy inside it as he had duly noticed but if it was so, did it mean that the mystical crystals and stones that contained less than significant energy could work as well? Did it also mean that the abundance of vile men he had killed recently, the air of injustice acquired, were equally not wasted?

The only difference was that he was well aware of it previously while he was not so sure now. That was it. Regardless of whether it was Emmie, the s.p.a.ce, or himself, they were all in co-existence!

Once he came to this conclusion, what Yun Yang had been worried about for so long was resolved at once, his mood perking up immediately. Since Emmie was alright, the s.p.a.ce was fine, and he was okay, then the two Whiteys in the s.p.a.ce must be well too.

"Do what I should do." Yun Yang told himself quietly, "I can't stand around doing nothing just because I don't see the result. Follow the initial intention of the heart and everything will come into its order!"

He chortled and left.

…

Venerable Lord Sword, Venerable Lord Snow and Venerable Lord Frost were three nervous wrecks.

They had just received news that Venerable Lord Ice was besieged by the Concourse of the

Underworld. The three of them had rushed over right away in distress but before they could arrive to rescue him, they were notified that Venerable Lord Ice had been saved by the Four Seasons Tower's experts.

But just as they were processing their relief, they heard more news that Venerable Lord Ice had actually lost his sanity and attacked those who had saved him before he disappeared. Sword, Snow, and Frost were growing more worried and confused. How could someone like Venerable Lord Ice suddenly go crazy? This shouldn't have been possible, yet as they pursued the issue further, they did not get any further replies.

"Everything will be revealed once we find Ice!"

All three men shared the same thought and had immediately sent out an order to seek information from the martial world. It was only after a few days that they received news that Venerable Lord Ice seemed to have gone to Tiantang City.

As all three Venerable Lords remembered the family of Ice's son being ruined due to the Four Seasons Tower, they understood the latter's feelings and had rushed towards the city in unspoken understanding.

Amidst the flurry of snow, three of them had checked into the Tower to Heaven Inn right as soon as they entered Tiantang City. This was their secret meeting location which had been previously agreed upon and only the brothers themselves knew the secret meeting code. If Venerable Lord Ice had come to Tiantang City, he would definitely have left some information here.

Just as they settled down, Venerable Lord Frost had quickly gone out to investigate. He came back almost an instant later.

"How is it?" Venerable Lord Sword was the most impatient one among the trio.

"Ice has left something indeed but I can't figure it out." Venerable Lord Frost did not look pleased as he said, "Have a look. This is what I've copied. If you two don't believe it, you can go take a look yourselves, it's just there anyway."

Venerable Lord Sword and Venerable Lord Snow shared a look of bewilderment with each other.

Huh? Since when did their brother have to speak in such a doubtful tone?

Venerable Lord Snow took the copy and his jaw dropped with just one glance. He raised his head abruptly to look at Venerable Lord Frost. The latter looked distant, and with a dry chuckle, his expression grew dark; "That's it," he grimaced.

Venerable Lord Sword read the copy for himself, knitting his thick brows into a frown, as he could not help but ask, "This… is really from Ice?"

Venerable Lord Frost's expression darkened. He stood up with a jolt. "I knew you'd ask that! Follow me!"

Venerable Lord Sword knew that his question was more than inappropriate but just as he wanted to explain further, Venerable Lord Frost was already walking out in large strides without even turning back. Both the other men could only tail behind him.

Coming to the secluded corner and seeing the jade-like piece of ice that was the messenger, all three brothers shared a distressed look.

Freezing water into ice and then turning that ice into jade was Venerable Lord Ice's signature trick!

Throughout this entire world, only Venerable Lord Ice alone could do it. Other than him, not even Mr. Nian, Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou, or any other unrivaled experts who had a higher cultivation base, could do something similar; to leave a message using ice jade!

Once they saw the ice jade, they could verify at once that it was indeed Venerable Lord Ice who had left the message. In addition, it was left in grace, when he had no other worries.

"But how is this possible!" Venerable Lord Sword exclaimed, losing his composure for a moment.

"Nothing is impossible!" Venerable Lord Frost's grimace deepened. His already pale face was actually tinged with black. He said with gritted teeth, "From what I can see, not only is this possible, it's most probably the truth!"

Venerable Lord Snow sucked in a deep breath before replying, "I think so too."

The three of them stood in the snow as it continued to fall; not too long later, the trio had turned into snowmen, frozen and stationery.

It was an earth-shattering blow to all three of them, like as if their world had just been crushed.

"The so-called Venerable Lord is but a chess piece. Once dead, the G.o.d Bone will be collected and become someone else's. Even if one doesn't die, once the G.o.d Bone matures and has absorbed enough life force, the bearer has no other choice but death."

Venerable Lord Ice's encounter was written clearly, including all that he knew. Yet everything he told his brothers only chilled them to the core as if they had fallen into a pit of ice after they read it.
