Immortal God of War
Time flew, and eight days had passed. At this point, Qin Feiyang was only four to five days away from the other side of the glacier. Along the way, searching for medicinal ingredients had also wasted quite a bit of time.
「That morning.」
As he passed above a snow forest, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance in the air.
"What’s that?"
He looked puzzled. After taking a careful sniff, his eyes suddenly lit up.
This is the scent of medicine! Beneath me, there must be some precious medicinal ingredients!
WHOOSH!
He dove, landing in the snow forest. Following the medicinal scent, he continued his search.
「After a moment.」
He exited the snow forest and arrived before an ice valley. The ice valley was not very large, surrounded by ice peaks on all sides, with only one narrow entrance and exit. Qin Feiyang looked at the entrance, his eyes shimmering. The medicinal scent was coming from the ice valley! Moreover, the medicinal scent here was several times stronger than what he had smelled before!
WHOOSH!
Qin Feiyang transformed into a streak of light and dashed into the ice valley like a bolt of lightning. But as soon as he entered, he immediately slammed on the brakes, his face etched with caution as he looked ahead.
ROAR!!
Just as Qin Feiyang entered the ice valley, a series of roars exploded, echoing in all directions!
The ice valley was about ten thousand feet in diameter, its ground covered with a thick layer of ice, shining as bright as a mirror. And right in the center of the ice valley stood a tremendous beast!
It was an ape, three to four meters tall. Its fur was as white as snow, and it radiated a terrifyingly ferocious aura. And on its shoulders, astonishingly, were four heads!
It was staring intently at Qin Feiyang, its eight copper-bell-sized, fierce eyes flickering with a frightening baleful light.
Snow Mountain Ape!
Qin Feiyang’s eyes filled with alarm.
The Snow Mountain Ape was an ancient species from ten thousand years ago. Moreover, when it broke through to the War King realm, it grew a second head. When it broke through to the War Emperor realm, it grew a third head. And when it broke through to the War Ancestor realm, it grew a fourth head!
In other words, the Snow Mountain Ape before him had broken through to the War Ancestor realm.
But that wasn’t the crucial part. The crucial part was that even Qin Feiyang could not see through this Snow Mountain Ape’s cultivation. Based on his estimation, it had to be an Eight-star War Ancestor!
An Eight-star War Ancestor Snow Mountain Ape was not to be taken lightly. Like other apes, the Snow Mountain Ape was not only incredibly strong, but its physical defensive power was also astonishing. In addition, it was extremely fast, basically overpowering humans of the same realm.
However, shouldn’t a beast of the Eight-star War Ancestor level be living in the central region? Why is it here?
Suddenly, as if a thought struck him, he walked a few steps to the side and then looked behind the Snow Mountain Ape. A brilliant light flashed in his eyes!
Behind the Snow Mountain Ape was a cylindrical ice pillar. The ice pillar was over a meter tall, as thick as a water bucket, and emitted wisps of cold air. And on top of the ice pillar, there was a piece of Snow Crystal! That Snow Crystal was as large as an adult’s palm, resembling a snowflake, and radiated a hazy glow! Upon the Snow Crystal, there was even a naturally formed tiger-shaped spiritual pattern! This indicated that this piece of Snow Crystal was a full ten thousand years old!
Looking at the Snow Crystal, Qin Feiyang was extremely excited. All the ingredients needed to refine the little fortune had to be ten-thousand-year-old medicinal herbs. Snow Crystal was one of them! And it was also one of the most important ingredients!
It must be obtained!
Qin Feiyang clenched his fists, suppressing the excitement in his heart. He looked at the Snow Mountain Ape and smiled, "I need that Snow Crystal, and I imagine you do too. Could you let me have it?"
"Scram!" Before he could finish speaking, the Snow Mountain Ape’s aggressive voice exploded in his mind.
Qin Feiyang said patiently, "I can trade other treasures for it."
"If you don’t scram, don’t blame This King for being impolite!" The Snow Mountain Ape simply wouldn’t listen.
Qin Feiyang’s eyebrows furrowed, and he said solemnly, "I don’t want to hurt you. Give me the Snow Crystal immediately."
"A mere Five Star War Ancestor dares to be so presumptuous!" The Snow Mountain Ape sneered and began walking towards Qin Feiyang. With every step it took, the ice valley trembled and rumbled in response!
Qin Feiyang’s eyes darkened. It seemed that to get the Snow Crystal, he would first have to defeat this violent ape.
"Ant, die!"
When the distance between them was only about one hundred zhang, the Snow Mountain Ape suddenly lunged. In an instant, it was before Qin Feiyang, its millstone-sized fist whistling through the air as it struck at him.
"You refuse to appreciate kindness!" Qin Feiyang’s face turned slightly cold. He thrust out his arm, meeting the attack head-on with his palm.
The moment fist met palm, the ice beneath man and beast cracked wildly. The entire ice valley trembled.
The next moment!
The Snow Mountain Ape spat out a mouthful of blood, its thick arm instantly mangled and bloody. Its massive body flew like a meteor, crashing into the ice peak on the opposite side.
CRACK!
The ice peak, hundreds of zhang high, was instantly shattered and collapsed, burying the Snow Mountain Ape deep within.
WHOOSH!
Qin Feiyang paid it no mind, dashing towards the Snow Crystal like a bolt of lightning.
SWISH!
But just then, a black iron chain as thick as an arm came lashing down from above, heading straight for Qin Feiyang.
Hmm? Somebody else?
Qin Feiyang raised an eyebrow.
However, when he looked up and saw the iron chain, a hint of disdain crept into his eyes. It looked like just an ordinary iron chain. But the chain was fast, darting towards him like a giant python in the blink of an eye.
Without hesitation, Qin Feiyang reached out and grabbed it.
Immediately, a terrifying force transmitted through the chain, actually forcing him back several steps!
"Hmph!" After steadying himself, he let out a cold snort, fingers tightening, preparing to crush the iron chain.
However, he was startled to find that he couldn’t muster any strength! Then, he immediately sensed a mysterious power surging into his body. This mysterious power originated from the iron chain in his hand.
Something wrong with the chain?
Qin Feiyang’s heart skipped a beat as he carefully examined the chain. He hadn’t realized it before, but a closer look gave him a shock! This was no ordinary iron chain; it was forged from Gravity Divine Iron!
Gravity Divine Iron could suppress a living being’s cultivation and strength. Once bound by Gravity Divine Iron, even someone with top-tier cultivation would become as powerless as an ordinary person, without even the strength to truss a chicken!
Who could be so insidious?
Qin Feiyang’s eyebrow twitched. He quickly let go. With a CLANG, the iron chain fell to the ground, instantly smashing a deep pit.
"Human, This King will slaughter you!"
Just then, an enraged roar exploded. The Snow Mountain Ape burst out from under the collapsed ice peak, charging at Qin Feiyang with overwhelming Evil Qi!
"Damn it!" Qin Feiyang was seething with anger. If someone hadn’t been scheming in the shadows, he would have already obtained the Snow Crystal.
WHOOSH!
Qin Feiyang looked up at the Snow Mountain Ape and shouted, "I’ve been more than courteous to you. If you continue to be obstinate, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
But the Snow Mountain Ape turned a deaf ear, rushing forward in an instant. Its massive foot lifted high, attempting to stomp down on Qin Feiyang!
"Fine, I’ll grant you your wish!" Qin Feiyang finally lost his patience. With a wave of his hand, the battle sword appeared. He gripped its hilt and slashed out!
Terrifying Sword Qi swept in all directions!
CRACKLE! With a sickening sound, the Snow Mountain Ape’s thick leg was directly severed by the battle sword!
Blood gushed like a waterfall, dyeing the ice valley crimson!
"ROAR...!" The Snow Mountain Ape roared in pain, hastily leaping into the air and retreating to a distance, staring in terror at the battle sword in Qin Feiyang’s hand.
Qin Feiyang gave it an indifferent glance, then, grasping the battle sword, he once again leaped towards the Snow Crystal.
CRACK!
But just as he reached the ice pillar and stretched out his hand to grab the Snow Crystal, the ice beneath his feet suddenly shattered!
Following that, another dark iron chain shot out from the broken ice, coiling around his legs like a venomous snake and binding them tight.
Instantly, the strength in his body rapidly receded like a tide. He became powerless and collapsed!
CLINK! The battle sword slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground nearby.
Qin Feiyang looked down, a frigid light erupting in his eyes. This was yet another chain forged from Gravity Divine Iron!
Who could it be?
He scanned his surroundings, his gaze chilling to the bone.
"Hehe..."
Accompanied by a light chuckle, an old man emerged from the ice peak to his left.
CRACK!
At the same time, the ice behind Qin Feiyang also shattered, and another aged figure emerged.
Both had white hair and white beards and were gaunt and bony. One wore a snow-white long robe, while the other was dressed in a black long robe. Triumphant smiles currently filled their wizened old faces.
WHOOSH!
The white-robed old man on the ice peak leaped down, landing in front of Qin Feiyang. He bent down to pick up the battle sword, examined it for a moment, then nodded and laughed heartily, "Indeed, a fine sword."
The black-robed old man walked over and said curiously, "Let me see."
The white-robed old man handed it over.
The black-robed old man took it, scrutinized it carefully, then flicked it with his finger, producing a clear, crisp sound.
"Not only is it free of the slightest impurity, but it can also effortlessly sever the leg of a Snow Mountain Ape. What level of weapon is this?" Instantly, a hint of surprised suspicion appeared in the black-robed old man’s eyes.
"Who are you?" Qin Feiyang frowned.
"Us?" The two old men exchanged a smile.
The white-robed old man said proudly, "This old man is the elder Clan Leader of the Li Clan, and this gentleman beside me is the elder Clan Leader of the Wang Clan."
So, they’re from those two clans,
Qin Feiyang muttered. The City Lord of Sky Thunder City had mentioned that on the other side of the glacier, there was a Wang Clan and a Li Clan. Both of these clans had a Five Star War Ancestor overseeing them. The two men before him were indeed Five Star War Ancestors; they were likely the very individuals the City Lord had mentioned.
"Did you also come for the Snow Crystal?" Qin Feiyang asked, his expression unruffled.
The white-robed old man replied, "Yes.
"We discovered long ago that there was a ten-thousand-year-old Snow Crystal here.
"But damn that Snow Mountain Ape! It held its ground, leaving us with no recourse.
"Just a short while ago, we found these two iron chains made from Gravity Divine Iron.
"Originally, these two chains were meant to deal with that beast.
"To deal with it, we went to great lengths, even digging a tunnel underground.
"Just as the time was ripe and we were about to make our move, we didn’t expect you to suddenly appear and deal with that beast so effortlessly.
"Boy, if you don’t want to die, tell us honestly: what level of battle weapon is this sword?"
After their brief explanation, the two old men pressed Qin Feiyang aggressively.
