The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 1236 - 1229: Ice Holy Land
Chapter 1236: Chapter 1229: Ice Holy Land
After arriving at the Hanbing Sect on a Gryphalcon beast, Ning Xuening didn’t even glance at Ye Chenfeng, she left immediately. As the daughter of the dignified Sect Master of the Hanbing Sect, she could be considered the princess of the entire Sect. Everyone had spoiled her since a young age. In her eyes, she would never have any association with someone like Ye Chenfeng for a lifetime, or to say, once Ye Chenfeng entered the Ice Holy Land, she would probably never meet him again.
The outer sect Elder, Wang Hanmei, and two inner sect disciples were escorting Ye Chenfeng and three Qingyang Sect disciples. After bypassing the main hall of the Hanbing Sect, they arrived at the back mountain. At the entrance of this back mountain was a stele, clearly engraved with the red characters "Forbidden Area" on it.
As Wang Hanmei led Ye Chenfeng and the others into this forbidden area, they reached the depths where a huge cliff blocked their way. In front of the cliff stood two middle-aged men in white robes, both of whose strength were at the peak of the Divine Thought Realm fifth heavenly layer. Upon seeing Wang Hanmei and the others, they frowned.
Wang Hanmei hurriedly said, "Two elders, these four are brought here to replenish the energy in the Ice Holy Land. These four are worthless criminals, they have offended the young miss."
These two middle-aged men, inner sect Elders of the Hanbing Sect guarding the entrance, held a position much higher than the outer sect Elder Wang Hanmei, so Wang Hanmei dared not to act rashly in front of them.
After hearing Wang Hanmei’s explanation, the eyebrows of the two inner sect Elders guarding the Ice Holy Land relaxed slightly. They looked at Ye Chenfeng and the three Qingyang Sect disciples, both of their hands pressed on the cliff, chanting something with strong spiritual energy rolling around them, suddenly, the cliff lit up brightly, revealing a translucent light screen on it.
Upon seeing the gate of Ice Holy Land opening, "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" With four strikes, Wang Hanmei unhesitatingly struck the backs of Ye Chenfeng and the other three, causing their bodies to fly directly into the light screen, while the sealed acupoints on their bodies were also instantly unlocked.
After Ye Chenfeng and the four entered the Ice Holy Land, the light screen on the cliff vanished instantly, the two inner sect Elders guarding the Ice Holy Land coldly said, "You can leave now."
...
Feeling a burning pain in his back, Ye Chenfeng who entered through the light screen, saw a vast stretch of snowfields and mountains before him, and the air around was filled with the extremely cold Ice Attribute Spiritual Energy.
"Little guy, this Ice Holy Land is a minor world. It was after the founder of the Hanbing Sect obtained this Ice Holy Land that he began to rise slowly. Feel the Ice Attribute Spiritual Energy here well; it should be of great help to you."
Just as White Shadow Person Wu Fengxian’s words finished echoing in Ye Chenfeng’s mind, those three Qingyang Sect disciples were seen grimacing. Among them, the one named He Ping, whose strength was in the late stage of the Third Heavenly Layer of Spirit Communication Realm, followed by Huang Chongyi in the middle stage of the Second Heavenly Layer, and lastly Xiang Xiaoyi in the initial stage of the Second Heavenly Layer.
"Such bad luck, how could our sect master offend the daughter of Hanbing Sect’s Sect Master? If I had known, I wouldn’t have joined the Qingyang Sect, now it’s useless to regret," He Ping grumbled discontentedly.
The middle-stage Second Heavenly Layer Spirit Communication Realm, Huang Chongyi, looked at Ye Chenfeng and forced a smile: "Brother, being locked up together in this Ice Holy Land is also a kind of fate. I’ve heard about this Ice Holy Land before, we must unite to survive here."
Ye Chenfeng, knowing nothing about the Ice Holy Land, was still perplexed by the words of the White Shadow Person. Since these three Qingyang Sect disciples showed no malice towards him, he was also curious to learn the details about the Ice Holy Land, he couldn’t help but say, "My name is Ye Chenfeng, I have just arrived at the Earth Profound Realm from the Ancient Martial World, can you tell me about the Ice Holy Land?"
Hearing that Ye Chenfeng came from the Ancient Martial World of the Lower Plane, Huang Chongyi and the other two men showed a hint of contempt in their eyes. However, Huang Chongyi still spoke very amicably, "Brother, you were able to cultivate to the Peak of the Third Heavenly Layer in the Spirit Communication Realm in the Ancient Martial World? That’s truly remarkable, no wonder the Great Elder brought you back."
Actually, in the minds of Huang Chongyi and the others, perhaps Ye Chenfeng merely had a stroke of dumb luck, as they considered people from the Ancient Martial World to generally have poor aptitude.
"Huang Chongyi, stop talking nonsense about the Great Elder and all, this time we have been completely doomed by the Sect Master, and the Great Elder Wu Changnan, this old man, doesn’t care about our life and death at all. Qingyang Sect no longer exists, and we are no longer disciples of the Qingyang Sect," said Xiang Xiaoyi, in the Initial Stage of the Second Heavenly Layer of the Spirit Communication Realm, clenching his fists.
"Right, what Xiang Xiaoyi said is correct, I guess we have no chance of leaving the Ice Holy Land," He Ping added.
Then, He Ping turned to Ye Chenfeng and said, "Brother, if you look at the spiritual energy circulating in my body, you should be able to understand some things." Saying that, He Ping began to circulate the spiritual energy in his meridians.
Ye Chenfeng’s expression slightly changed, as he saw that the spiritual energy inside He Ping was constantly being absorbed by the Ice Holy Land and transformed into the ice energy in the air. Ye Chenfeng asked, "What is going on?"
He Ping replied, "Brother, when we circulate spiritual energy in this Ice Holy Land, the spiritual energy in our bodies will be absorbed by the Ice Holy Land. Moreover, due to the extreme frigidity here, we must constantly circulate our spiritual energy. This Ice Holy Land is like a vampire, continuously absorbing the spiritual energy from our bodies, though at a very slow rate. Therefore, we won’t die immediately in this Ice Holy Land; at the very least, we could hold on for three to four more years."
"This Ice Holy Land is used to imprison those who offend the Hanbing Sect and whose strength is at the Spirit Communication Realm. Masters above the Spirit Communication Realm won’t have their spiritual energy absorbed by this Ice Holy Land. The sect uses a special method to channel the ice attribute energy here to the rooms of the Hanbing Sect disciples, greatly enhancing their cultivation speed," explained He Ping.
"Every year, a batch of masters at the Spirit Communication Realm is imprisoned here. Now, there are at least fifty or sixty such masters confined within this Ice Holy Land. Here we not only have our spiritual energy sapped away but are also constantly on guard against these people, who might very well turn on us at any time. This is why the four of us must stick together," he continued.
"By the way, it is said that a Nine Nether Ice Lion is also suppressed here in the Ice Holy Land. The Nine Nether Ice Lion is a higher-level mystical beast, but fortunately, I heard it is always in slumber. Otherwise, our presence here would definitely be fatal," he added.
After listening to He Ping’s lengthy explanation, Ye Chenfeng had a rough understanding of the Ice Holy Land. Although there could be some opportunities in this place, Ye Chenfeng did not wish to spend his life here. He then asked, "Is there really no way to leave this place?"
He Ping shook his head, smiling bitterly, "Unless your strength reaches the Reincarnation Realm, only then might you be able to break the barrier of the Ice Holy Land."
Just as Ye Chenfeng was about to inquire if the White Shadow Person and Black Shadow Person had any methods to leave, he saw seven or eight figures continuously approaching from a distance. These people must also be the ones imprisoned in the Ice Holy Land.
Seeing the seven or eight figures drawing closer, the expressions of He Ping and the others turned grim. He Ping spoke, "Let’s endure when we can. They outnumber us, and their strength might also be formidable. Everyone, be careful."
As for He Ping’s words, Ye Chenfeng remained noncommittal. He had secretly just tried it; because his Dantian contained the Ice Snow Lotus, when he circulated the Spiritual Qi River within him, his body’s spiritual energy was not absorbed by the Ice Holy Land. Instead, this place filled with ice attribute energy everywhere was more suitable for his cultivation.
