Chapter 1049: Ice Crystal Floating Stairs, Jiang Qingluan Shocked!
Editor: Atlas Studios
Snowdrift Sect stood on an ice mountain.
This iceberg was covered by blizzards all year round. Compared to anywhere in the Arctic Star Region, the blizzards were even more violent and cold!
At the same time, it was said that this snowstorm had never disappeared. It enveloped this iceberg all the time.
When Ye Qiubai and the other two arrived at the foot of the ice mountain, in front of them, there was only one path that led to the ice mountain.
This was a floating staircase that led to the ice mountain, like a pilgrimage path.
However, what Ye Qiubai and the other two cared about was that on this ice crystal floating stairs, it was the only place that was not covered by the snow!
It was as if there was an extremely special magnetic field. When the snowstorm was about to hang on the ice crystal floating stairs, it would bypass the floating stairs at a special angle.
At the same time, the fact that there were no guards at the foot of the mountain meant that the Snowdrift Sect was extremely confident.
Ye Qiubai took out the jade pendant. “I hope he didn’t lie to us.”
After saying that, he poured immortal energy into it. The jade pendant began to shine, and a female voice quickly came from the jade pendant.
“I’ll be right down.”
Not long after, a beautiful woman in a snow-white dress with ice crystals hanging from the corner of her dress appeared in front of Ye Qiubai and the others.
There was no expression on the woman’s face. Her eyes were indifferent, as if she was keeping people at arm’s length.
“Who are you to the Holy Maiden?”
Ye Qiubai asked, “What happened to Ziqing?”
Hearing this, the woman’s ice-cold eyes frowned slightly.
“You’re the Dao Companion that the Holy Maiden mentioned?”
Hearing the woman’s answer, Ye Qiubai and the other two were delighted.
Now, it was confirmed that Mu Ziqing was the current Holy Maiden of the Snowdrift Sect!
“If that’s the case, I advise you to give up.” Jiang Qingluan shook her head slightly, “You are still at the Beginner Stage Divine King Realm. Compared to the one from the Ice God Temple, your talent, strength and background are not on the same level.”
“Even though with the Holy Maiden’s talent, even that person from the Ice God Temple is not worthy, you’re even more unworthy.”
Ye Qiubai frowned slightly. “You don’t have to worry about this. I only need to see Ziqing.”
“The Snowdrift Sect has never had any rules that allow outsiders to enter and leave as they please.” Jiang Qingluan raised her brows. “If you want to enter, you can only rely on your own strength to ascend these 999 ice crystal floating stairs. Only then will you have the strength that the Snowdrift Sect acknowledges.”
However, Jiang Qingluan’s indifferent gaze…
Clearly, he didn’t believe that Ye Qiubai could board it.
Even though the ice crystal floating stairs did not restrict one’s realm, it had an extremely high requirement on talent, foundation, and willpower.
Even Jiang Qingluan could only reach the 400th level without cultivating Snowdrift Sect’s cultivation technique.
In the entire history of Snowdrift Sect, only the first Sect Master and… the Holy Maiden of this generation had reached the top.
Ye Qiubai didn’t seem to care about Jiang Qingluan’s indifferent gaze and walked straight to the ice crystal floating stairs.
Seeing this, Jiang Qingluan frowned and said, “No one can save you on this ice crystal floating stairs. If you forcefully try to reach the top, you will only lose your life for nothing. Have you thought it through?”
Ye Qiubai smiled freely. “From the moment I stepped onto the path of cultivation, if I have to care about my life, how can I cultivate?”
“Besides, I have a reason to go up…”
At this point, Ye Qiubai raised his head and looked at the top of the ice mountain.
At the peak of the mountain that was swept by the snowstorm, an ice crystal palace vaguely appeared.
Ziqing… wait for me.
Thinking of this, Ye Qiubai’s gaze became even more determined. Under Jiang Qingluan’s stunned gaze, he steadily stepped onto the ice crystal floating stairs!
The moment he stepped onto the ice crystal floating stairs.
The immortal aura barrier around Ye Qiubai’s body that was used to resist extreme cold was silently annihilated at this moment.
An extremely bone-piercing cold swept over!
Under Ye Qiubai’s feet, the ice crystal floating stairs emitted a dazzling blue light!
The blue light actually turned into the Law of Ice and enveloped Ye Qiubai. Strands of white frost began to hang on his body.
Ye Qiubai’s body trembled slightly before he chuckled. “Is that all…”
Then, he continued upwards.
He did not stop at all!
Jiang Qingluan’s expression began to become slightly solemn. Ye Qiubai’s footsteps were extremely stable. Every step landed steadily on the ice crystal floating stairs. At the same time, his pace was neither fast nor slow, as if he was not under much pressure!
“However… when you reach the 200th level, there will be a qualitative change. I hope you can still maintain…”
Mu Fusheng and Fang Qiong were also watching from below.
“Senior Brother Mu, guess when Big Senior Brother will start to feel pressure? I’m guessing it’ll be at the 600th level.”
Mu Fusheng shook his head with a smile. “I don’t know. After all, I can’t see through the ice crystal floating stairs.”
At this point, Mu Fusheng looked at Fang Qiong and his expression suddenly turned serious. He instructed, “Also, Junior Brother Fang, you must remember not to underestimate anything. Even this sect that you have never heard of must remain vigilant!”
He had never heard of it before…
Jiang Qingluan’s brows twitched.
I, a personal disciple of a sect that you’ve never heard of, am still here!
While they were talking, Ye Qiubai had already stepped on the 200th step.
Instantly, Ye Qiubai’s expression froze.
He could clearly feel that the aura of the Law of Ice had become even more turbulent, seeping into his body from the soles of his feet!
His bones seemed to be covered in a layer of ice crystals. The sound of bones rubbing against each other could be heard with the slightest movement!
This was the true meaning of an ice blade scraping bones!
The bone-scratching pain was bone-deep!
Ye Qiubai frowned slightly and looked up. There were a total of 999 levels. If he felt the pressure here, how could he reach the top?
Ye Qiubai’s Beginner Stage Divine King Realm aura suddenly erupted!
Immortal qi howled crazily!
Upon seeing this, Jiang Qingluan could no longer maintain her indifference. She cried out, “Immortal Qi? All your spiritual Qi has been converted into immortal Qi? How is this possible?!”
Transforming all of them into immortal qi was one of the symbols of a Divine Master Realm expert!
Not to mention whether it was immortal qi, the density of this immortal qi had already far exceeded people of the same realm!
This also meant that Ye Qiubai’s Dao foundation had already stabilized to a terrifying extent…
He faced upwards again.
The 300th floor…
The 400th floor…
The 500th floor…
Jiang Qingluan was shocked.
It had already surpassed her record…
Moreover, Ye Qiubai’s expression was still calm.
The ice crystal floating stairs would adjust the attack according to the cultivator’s realm.
They would test the cultivators with the limit of this realm, or even exceed it.
Ye Qiubai looked like this but it was obvious that his talent and Dao foundation had reached a terrifying level!
When he reached the 600th level, the Law of Ice began to invade his internal organs and even freeze his dantian!
Ye Qiubai clenched his fist and the Silver Dragon Sword was unsheathed!
Sword Domain activated!
“The Sword God Realm?!”
Fang Qiong smiled and said, “How many times has she exclaimed out so loudly?”
