Book 16 Chapter 61 – Reunion

It was early morning in Frozen God Domain. The pale-faced Qin Xiyue coughed while struggling to support herself. She examined her surroundings to make sure she didn’t walk in circles.

In this type of extremely cold frozen world, even with Green Luan Academy’s medicines and heat generating substance, it was just like she suspected: her condition was getting worse. The cold that had accumulated within her was getting more and more serious. She always felt as if she was surrounded by wet moss these days, often waking up from coughing too heavily.

Every breath made strange noises, as if countless ice crystals were grinding at her lungs and trying to rip through.

She was extremely beautiful, but she was no delicate flower vase. Her will was tougher than most cultivators in this world. In these Frozen God Domain depths the academy had always believed were a place none beneath the sacred level could venture through, this girl who was still far from a Sacred Expert relied only on her strong will to keep her head sufficiently clear.

Sometimes, one’s willpower was endless, sometimes powerful to a point where it would even leave oneself shocked.

Qin Xiyue could feel that her own willpower brought her own body through several bottlenecks one after another. She could even vaguely sense that her cultivation was growing quickly.

When she stood up in this early morning and sensed this gorgeous blue sky gradually dimming, Qin Xiyue already knew that it would soon be time for her to part with this world.

Because of her intense cough and difficulty breathing, the amount of time she could spend in meditation cultivation became shorter and shorter. Once her soul force was cut off in this type of place, not even the greatest willpower could shield her body from the cold.

Two sparkling teardrops slid down her face, turning into two resplendent frozen beads.

However, she didn’t feel the slightest bit of grief while watching the droplets freeze.

The surrounding Frozen God Domain became a grayish blue color, yet under the sunlight, the frozen beads seemed to have reflected a dazzling multicolored world.

She thought about many things. She thought back to the misunderstanding she had with Lin Xi back in Green Luan Academy, wondered when she began to like Lin Xi.

She had seen the Lin Xi who was carefree and unaffected, who refused to argue with others.

She had seen the Lin Xi who was dying and in despair in Jadefall City.

She had seen the Lin Xi who fought through the battle of East Scenery City while bathed in blood, so tired he couldn’t even raise a single finger.

She had seen the joyous Lin Xi when he married Gao Yanan.

Even now, she didn’t feel any regret over her feelings for Lin Xi. All of these memories became the most precious moments in her heart.

Liking someone didn’t mean that they had to be together.

Now that she was about to leave this world, she still felt great warmth and warm emotions when she thought of this person. It was best for both of them to remain beautiful in each others’ memories.

Qin Xiyue continued to walk forward. She thought to herself that she would forever remain that beautiful in Lin Xi’s mind as well.

She was indeed extremely beautiful. Her figure that moved through Frozen God Domain was also truly beautiful.

…

The blue sky gradually dimmed, and then it became incomparably brilliant again.

Qin Xiyue knew that the sky itself didn’t change at all. These were merely illusions produced by her blurring consciousness.

She prepared to face death.

However, the unchanging glaciers suddenly produced hints of color.

She also thought that this was a misconception.

When she narrowed her eyes to focus on this vividly colored glacier, her entire body was gripped with a heart shaking excitement. She began to tremble continuously.

This was the color of gold.

Those were some soul weapons that were stabbed into the ice!

She was sure that this wasn’t a misconception, because if it was, the shapes of the soul weapons and the runes carved on the blades wouldn’t be so real.

Her body seemed to have suddenly become infused with new power that instantly swept away her fatigue. She walked up to this glacier that was already extremely close to her.

Then, her body shook even more powerfully.

If Frozen God Domain’s glaciers were like great ships that had frozen over, then the world behind these glaciers seemed like it had been ravaged by a storm, crushed under countless meteors.

There were massive craters everywhere. Many glaciers crumbled like destroyed palaces. Apart from some golden weapons, she even saw some golden corpses in the ice and snow. Some of the golden corpses were deeply embedded in the glaciers themselves, as if they had been flung out of a catapult. Huge holes were blasted open in the ice, leaving behind many deep cracks that hadn’t faded away even now.

The reason all of these corpses were golden was because they were all dressed in golden armor.

Strange dragon patterns were carved on the surface of their armor, embedded within them were gemstones that were even more dazzling than lightning!

True Dragon Gemstone!

That was why these were precisely the most powerful group of cultivators who followed Yunqin’s late emperor, the True Dragon Guards

That was why this… was precisely the battlefield between the past Principal Zhang and the True Dragon Guards!

Qin Xiyue didn’t immediately examine the true dragon soul weapons strewn across the glacier surface, nor did she try to picture how intense and world shocking this battle must’ve been. She only unconsciously raised her head, straining her eyes to see as far as she could.

She still couldn’t see any clear signs in the limits of what she could see. However, she was certain that she was already walking on a path Principal Zhang traveled through.

…

At almost the same time, in Lin Xi and Nangong Weiyang’s line of sight, countless quickly moving sword-like figures appeared again. They reflected a drab white light as they flooded over like a white tide.

When he saw these White Sword Fiends that returned once more, Lin Xi knew that they still didn’t pose him any threat. However, a wave of icy coldness and bitterness couldn’t help but flood his body.

This was already the ninth day since Qin Xiyue left. They still didn’t see any sign of her.

He already felt like he would never find Qin Xiyue again.

But right at this time, while these endless White Sword Fiends were throwing themselves over, when even he began to feel a bit of despair, he saw a streak of light.

He saw that in the distance, in what seemed like the limits of the world, there was a fine but brilliant pillar of light!

After freezing up for a moment, Lin Xi wanted to release a crazy roar.

Nangong Weiyang only gave him a look. Without saying anything, she began to run crazily towards the source of that light.

Lin Xi also moved, following closely behind Nangong Weiyang.

Two blasts of sword light weaved about like a mad snowstorm, reaping the lives of numerous White Sword Fiends one after the next, turning them into statues that would stand for eternity.

In the beginning, these White Sword Fiends were still as aggressive as before in the, but as Lin Xi and Nangong Weiyang advanced faster than ever before, several hundred corpses scattered around their bodies, so the rest of the White Sword Fiends panicked again, all of them fleeing in alarm.

Lin Xi and Nangong Weiyang put away their flying swords.

These White Sword Fiends that already entered a state of alarm were also running for their lives. They didn’t possess much intelligence, so they just couldn’t understand why these two terrifying creatures who didn’t belong to Frozen God Domain continued to chase after them.

Lin Xi and Nangong Weiyang had never run as crazily as they did now. They needed to preserve soul force and stamina as much as possible. Right now, they were only running because they wanted to provide support for that signal as soon as possible. They feared being too slow and missing out on something important.

Their figures were much faster than all of the White Sword Fiends, to the extent where they were close to reaching the edge of this white tide. Right now, it almost seemed as if they were leading this boundless expanse of White Sword Fiends in escape.

All of the White Sword Fiends wanted to stay as far away from these two as possible. Some of the oldest White Sword Fiends that ran the slowest fell to the very back when they were arriving, but before they could even see Lin Xi’s party, they were already completely defeated, entering a similar state of fear. They still moved the slowest, so they were once again at the very end.

That was why originally, they shouldn’t have met, yet they now encountered each other by chance.

Lin Xi’s intense breathing suddenly paused slightly.

He saw that there was a streak of golden light on the body of an aged White Sword Fiend.

This was a golden armor fragment, right now plastered on by some type of force, sticking to the White Sword Fiend’s body.

This piece of golden armor had some patterns that might be difficult and cryptic for others in this world, but Lin Xi couldn’t be more familiar with them.

This wasn’t all.

There were also several scars left behind by sword markings on this White Sword Fiend’s body.

In the eyes of this world’s people, these were still mysterious and indescribable symbols: H I.

However, these two symbols instead felt like a whole new world, carrying an unimaginable aura that flooded Lin Xi’s mind and battered his body.

“Hi!”

Lin Xi unknowingly shouted this at that White Sword Fiend.

His flying sword flew out. He didn’t kill that White Sword Fiend, only cutting off this piece of golden armor from its body.

The instant the golden armor piece was removed and flew towards him, he suddenly felt like this world really did have miracles sometimes.

Then, he immediately remembered someone telling him that this word didn’t have any miracles. Only human wills were the true bringer of miracles.

He also brought out a long silver colored signal tube.

Under the infusion of his soul force, the silver metal tube released a thin but bright yellow flame, rushing into the heavens.

The yellow streak in front of them still didn’t completely disappear.

However, the moment Lin Xi’s flame rushed into the sky, another extremely bright fine yellow flame shone from even further away!
