Chapter 509 - Icefield



Chapter 509 – Icefield

When Yang Junshan left the Yuzhou, it was still during the summer and he had taken nearly a month to arrive at the Liang Zhou. When he was in Ning County, he had spent another two months fighting with the Alien Cultivator on the way, and according to the date, it was already close to the middle of autumn.

But after Yang Junshan crossed the snowy mountain ridge, what appeared before his eyes was already a scene akin to ice and snow.

“Haha, Little Yang bro, with one look, you’re clearly not someone from our Liang Zhou’s three northern counties. Only you, the cultivators of the three southern counties, would be uninterested in the cold tide!”

As an elderly Perfection of the cultivator said this, eight to nine of the surrounding Martial Realm Cultivator began to laugh with goodwill.

Yang Junshan had coincidentally bumped into this group of cultivators from the Martial Realm Cultivatofter he had passed through the Snow Ridge.

When Yang Junshan met them, the ten Martial Realm Cultivator s of the Ning Family were surrounded by a pack of hungry wild beasts and wolves.

There were around thirty wolves in total. Possessing the power of a savage beast meant that the wolves had a cultivation level that was not inferior to martial arts realm. In addition to the hunger, it meant that they had to kill this group of human cultivators as food even if they had to pay a certain price.

At that time, among the ten cultivators of the Ning family, other than the leader of the family who was at the great circle of perfection stage and a middle-aged man in his thirties who was at the fourth stage of martial arts realm, the other eight all had cultivations below the baleful qi stage.

If they were to fight head on, of course they would be able to defeat the wolf pack. Although the wolf pack was scary, they did not have the intelligence, but the hungry wolf pack was not afraid of death after all. If they were to fight, they would probably have to hand over three or four of their forces.

Just then, Yang Junshan who was disguised as a Great Perfection Ranker suddenly rushed in from outside the encirclement of the wolves.

When the Ning Family cultivators received this powerful support, the Patriarch immediately ordered them to break out. He cooperated with Yang Junshan and dispersed the pack of wolves, but only two of the disciples on his side were injured by the giant wolf due to lack of experience. Fortunately, the injuries were not serious.

On the ice plains, if a cultivator that they did not know approached them, they would have to maintain their vigilance, but Yang Junshan had saved the lives of all the cultivators of the Ning family. If he truly had plans for them, why would he save them?

And it was also because of this that the Ning Family’s gratitude and Yang Junshan’s intention to get close to each other caused their relationship to become harmonious, and Yang Junshan quickly blended into the cultivators of the Ning Family.

Hearing the laughter of the crowd, Yang Junshan did not mind and asked seriously, “I would like to seek guidance from Senior Ning.”

Patriarch Ning did not directly explain it to Yang Junshan. Instead, he stroked his beard and asked: “Even though the Taoist Little Yang is not a cultivator from three counties, I believe he has heard of the Ice Crystal Jade Spring before. I heard that a few months ago the Ice Crystal Jade Spring was actually here?”

Yang Junshan stared blankly for a moment. He did not know why Patriarch Ning had mentioned the Ice Crystal Jade Spring, but could it be that the Arctic Tide of the Northern Frozen Plains was related?

When Patriarch Ning saw Yang Junshan’s suspicious expression, he smiled and continued, “The frost energy within the Ice Crystal Jade Spring can be used to purify the True Essence within cultivators, and every time the Arctic Tide of the extreme north ice plains erupts, it will also be absorbed by the frost energy.”

Yang Junshan suddenly exclaimed, but then said: “Could it be that every cold wave is accompanied by frost energy, and like the Ice Crystal Jade Spring, can it also be used by cultivators to purify the True Essence in the body?”

“That’s naturally impossible,” Ning Hanwu, the fourth stage martial arts realm Realm cultivator of the Ning Family, who was second only to the old Patriarch among the ten Martial Realm Cultivator s, continued and said, “Only the cold tides of the extreme northern ice plains would be mixed with frost elemental energy, which also caused the cold tides of the extreme northern ice plains to be extremely terrifying. If one is not fully prepared, it is possible for the cultivators of the late stage of the martial arts realm to be frozen to death when they encounter the cold tides.”

Looking at Yang Junshan’s shocked expression, Ning Hanwu continued, “Furthermore, the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi in the Arctic Icecap is extremely mixed, although it is mixed with ice Essence, but cultivators are unable to absorb it, so even if there is a great ability cultivator that can suppress and separate the ice Essence Qi in the ice Wave, it would often requiruge price to pay, it is simply not worth it.”

“Then …” Yang Junshan glanced at the rest of the Ning Family cultivators, his expression clear. Since the cold wave was so strong that even the cultivators of the late stage of martial arts realm could not handle it, then why did he bring the younger generation of the clan members from the early stages of martial arts realm into the extreme north ice plains?

Ning Hanwu smiled proudly and said, “Brother Yang, you want to ask why we are going to enter the Northern Frozen Plains if the cold wave is so powerful?”

In reality, Yang Junshan wanted to ask, of course it wasn’t this, but thinking that since the person dared to bring his family’s early and middle stage martial arts realm disciples to come here, he must have this method of resisting the cold tide. Maybe this was still his secret, so it was better for him not to casually ask about it.

Ning Hanwu smiled, and just as he was about to speak, he heard the surrounding clansmen suddenly exclaim in surprise. When they looked over, they saw a ray of light streaking across the western night sky where they were camping, it was not a shooting star, but a light escaping. Furthermore, with one glance, they knew it was from Adept Realm Cultivator.

“How many times has it been already? This time around, during the cold wave season in the Northern Frozen Plains, there are a lot of Adept Realm Cultivator s!”

Old Patriarch Ning had entered the Northern Frozen Plains several times and experienced the cold season several times as well, but this time he appeared to be worried.

Hearing that, Yang Junshan’s heart was moved, and he said: “The season of the cold tide? Are there a lot of Adept Realm Cultivator that go to the Northern Frozen Plains during the cold wave season? ”

Old Patriarch Ning shook his head and said, “There are indeed a lot of them, but there are many paths for these cultivators to travel through. Normally, we would encounter them two or three times when the season of the cold wave arrives, but in the five days since we entered the ice plains, we have already encountered them about seven or eight times.”

Yang Junshan hurriedly asked, “Then what exactly attracted so many cultivators to the Northern Frozen Plains?”

“Of course it’s all kinds of treasures!” Ning Hanwu took over the conversation and said, “Every season, there will be many treasures appearing in the extreme north ice plains. Since the Great Divine Cultivator of the realms of life are able to enter the depths of the ice plains, the greatest benefit will naturally be from them, and us Martial Realm Cultivator do not have the strength to enter the deep depths of the ice plains. We can only pick up loopholes in the periphery of the ice plains, or collect some treasures that the cultivators do not like.”

Ning Hanwu paused, and said with some doubt, “Brother Yang, don’t tell me you don’t even know about the cold season? Then why did you enter the extreme northern ice plains at this time? ”

Yang Junshan blinked his eyes, and said: “If I were to say that I just happened to meet him, would Brother Hanwu believe me?”

Seeing Ning Hanwu’s stunned expression, Yang Junshan laughed and said, “Brother Hanwu, you should tell me more about the cold wave!”

Yang Junshan received a lot of information regarding the frost tides in the extreme north from the old Patriarch Ning and Ning Hanwu. Even though they had never been to the depths of the ice plains because of their cultivation, and were unable to know what was happening there, they knew a lot about the outer conditions of the ice plains. They had even learned a lot about the relationships between the Four Major Sects in the north and south.

And on the night that Yang Junshan camped with the Ning Family cultivators on the ice plains, the Ning Family cultivators were amazed when they discovered that the light beams of the three Adept Realm Cultivator s were coming from different directions towards the deeper parts of the ice plains.

However, Yang Junshan knew that there were more than three Adept Realm Cultivatohat had entered the depths of the ice plains during this night. There were at least three more Adept Realm Cultivator s, either hiding their traces of flying, or hiding outside the range of the Ning Family’s cultivators’ perception.

The next day was very late. The sky was still gloomy like evening. Old Patriarch Ning looked towards the far north and said, “The season of the cold wave is about to come!”

Ning Hanwu said, “Third Uncle, let’s continue heading north. After all, the further north we go, the more likely it is that we will find something good.”

Old Patriarch Ning looked moved, but he still shook his head. “No, we will not leave for another day if we continue heading north!”

“Why?” Ning Hanwu’s expression showed some reluctance, and he said, “Third Uncle, if we can find some good things this time, we can exchange them from the Snow Wind Sword Sect for a batch of cultivation resources, which will be enough to increase our Ning Family’s strength greatly.”

Yang Junshan could tell that Ning Hanwu had already reached the peak of the fourth stage of martial arts realm, just a step away from becoming a perfect stage in martial arts realm. From the attitude of the people of the Ning family, Yang Junshan could tell that this Ning Hanwu was definitely the next Patriarch of the Ning family, and it was said that he had once been recognized by a Snow Wind Sword Sect.

Because of this, Ning Hanwu placed great importance on this cold season. He hoped to take this opportunity to break through the bottleneck, and even takeek at the realm of realms of life.

“We still have to survive!”

Old Patriarch Ning’s expression was extremely solemn as he said, “How many Adept Realm Cultivatoave we seen since we entered the extreme north ice plains? You’ve also experienced the cold tide of the ice plains three times, have you ever seen so many cultivators in person? ”

Old Patriarch Ning paused, and tried his best to use a calm tone to speak. “Han Wu, listen to Third Uncle’s advice, Third Uncle has experienced at least eight cold waves on the ice plains. This time, something big is definitely going to happen. Our Ning Family will be destroyed! ”
