Reverse War Surpass Immortal

The longsword, infused with his Primordial Power, became incredibly hard.

He swung his right hand, directly slashing the longsword towards the incoming wolf-shaped ice corpse.

With a loud clang, the longsword and the body of the wolf-shaped ice corpse collided fiercely.

Duan Gujin saw that the longsword merely chipped off some ice from the wolf-shaped ice corpse, without causing any real harm.

He gasped, immediately realizing that the body of the wolf-shaped ice corpse had been 'forged' to be invincible.

He took a deep breath, sending dozens of sword qi toward the wolf-shaped ice corpse.

Roars of explosions echoed non-stop.

Now, being so close to the wolf-shaped ice corpse, he believed that his sword qi should inflict some damage on it.

However, to his surprise, moments later, he saw that the wolf-shaped ice corpse was only prevented from attacking him by the sword qi; its body remained unharmed.

Duan Gujin frowned deeply, helpless for the moment; he flashed to retreat rapidly back to Qing Lian.

Bang, bang, bang!

Behind them, the wolf-shaped ice corpse, in rapid pursuit, let out terrifying howls.

Duan Gujin and Qing Lian, at extreme speed, ran back the way they came.

They had foreseen that the narrow ice path must have been deliberately set up by the Ziwei Divine Sect.

"This place weakens magic attacks; do we really have to confront these ice corpses head-on?"

After sprinting at extreme speed for a while, Duan Gujin and Qing Lian realized that the wolf-shaped ice corpse was not keeping pace.

But they believed it would definitely come, given that there was only one path.

"What should we do now?"

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered, and suddenly, he thought of a solution.

"Let's hide above and conceal any life aura, so the wolf-shaped ice corpse can't detect us! If it does detect us, I'll hold it back, and you run. We're not here to have a showdown with these ice corpses; we'll avoid that wolf-shaped ice corpse!"

Duan Gujin said.

"Alright!"

Duan Gujin looked around quickly, choosing a protruding dark corner on the ice wall; he hurriedly drove four long spears into the ice.

Once assured the four long spears were firmly planted, Duan Gujin and Qing Lian leapt up onto them.

Each stood on two long spears, then concealed any life aura, emitting no presence.

Time passed slowly until they heard rapid footsteps echoing down the ice path.

Within moments, they saw a figure flash before them.

Duan Gujin and Qing Lian saw clearly that the figure flashing by was the wolf-shaped ice corpse.

Once they confirmed the wolf-shaped ice corpse had moved on, Duan Gujin and Qing Lian breathed a sigh of relief.

They descended from their hiding place once they were sure the wolf-shaped ice corpse was far enough away.

Duan Gujin retrieved the four long spears, and then proceeded forward with Qing Lian.

After moving on for some distance, they encountered a human-shaped ice corpse.

They again followed their previous tactic, finding a hidden corner ahead and driving four long spears into the ice wall, standing atop them.

Concealing all presence, they waited for the human-shaped ice corpse to pass before jumping down and continuing on.

Avoiding the two ice corpses behind them, Duan Gujin and Qing Lian felt a surge of excitement.

But a few hundred meters ahead, they saw a massive hall, its center filled with at least dozens of ice corpses.

The ice corpses varied greatly in size, consisting of both human-shaped and various beast-shaped corpses.

Here, Duan Gujin and Qing Lian involuntarily gasped—they hadn't expected so many ice corpses up ahead.

Duan Gujin surveyed the surroundings, finding no dark corners nearby.

He drew a long spear, stabbing it hard into the ice wall.

After determining the ice wall was thick, he used the spear to carve out a human-sized recess in the ice path's ceiling, placing Qing Lian inside and instructing her to remain hidden until her Divine Sense detected the ice corpses had moved on.

"Be careful!"

Qing Lian immediately understood how Duan Gujin would act next.

"I will!"

After securing Qing Lian, he enveloped her with a thin layer of ice using Primordial Power.

Then, Duan Gujin went forward to provoke the ice corpses.

Many ice corpses, enraged, chased after him.

After about 15 minutes, Duan Gujin returned, ensuring no more ice corpses were ahead, then dispelled the ice sealing Qing Lian.

"What on earth is the Ziwei Divine Sect doing, setting up such a bizarre obstacle here?"

Duan Gujin's heart was full of confusion.

Duan Gujin and Qing Lian kept moving forward and had passed through about five kilometers, crossing seven similar halls.

And in those halls, there were numerous ice corpses.

Gradually, they became impatient.

When they reached the eighth hall, they found that there were no more ice corpses, and the surroundings of the hall were smooth, and it seemed there was a large space above the hall.

So, they cast a flying spell and flew up.

After flying up, they saw a stone slab hanging with more than a dozen iron chains above.

"Why does the Ziwei Divine Sect make everything so mysterious!"

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, and after inspecting for a while and confirming there were no mechanical traps on the stele, he leaped up and flew up.

He saw a stone box on the slab, opened it, and found two jade scrolls and some other small items inside.

He picked up one of the jade scrolls, and his Divine Sense entered it.

After a while, he read the contents of the jade scroll and realized that over a thousand years ago, the enemies faced by the Ziwei Divine Sect were those ice corpses from the Demon Domain.

The people of the Ziwei Divine Sect imprisoned some of the ice corpses here to test the challengers. Only the human warriors who could defeat the ice corpses were qualified to obtain the treasures of the Ziwei Divine Sect.

"Defeat? Does the Ziwei Divine Sect overestimate the strength of those challengers entering here?"

He was not optimistic that other challengers entering with him could pass this level unscathed like him.

He and Qing Lian merely avoided the ice corpses by exploiting their inability to detect their weaknesses, not by defeating them.

The most shocking thing for Duan Gujin was to find out that the jade scroll stated that every two thousand years, when a massive comet appears in the sky, the ice corpses from the Demon Domain will launch an attack on the Yuanzhen Continent.

"How is this possible? Could it be that when a massive comet appears in the sky, spatial disturbances occur at the border between the Demon Domain and the Yuanzhen Continent, allowing those ice corpses to launch an attack from the Demon Domain?"

Duan Gujin, having seen much in his previous life, knew that many things incomprehensible to lower realm martial artists actually had reasonable explanations.

For example, why the human world has the Devil Clan and some Demon Clan is because the human world is connected to the worlds of the Devil Clan and the Demon Clan.

Usually, due to different rule powers, the Human Clan, Devil Clan, or Demon Clan cannot interact, but during certain special periods, when the rule power is affected, the Human Clan can enter the Devil Clan or Demon Clan world, and likewise, the Devil Clan or Demon Clan can seize this opportunity to enter the human world.

When that time truly comes, the rule power of different species worlds will have reduced weakening effects on each other's worlds to the minimum.

So, Duan Gujin judged that the day mentioned in the jade scroll is when the rule power of Yuanzhen Continent and Demon Domain is affected by the comet passing by, thus enabling the ice corpse demons from the Demon Domain to launch a massive invasion.

Duan Gujin exhaled, knowing that the day stated in the jade scroll had not occurred before he left the Yuanzhen Continent, implying that there would not be a massive ice corpse demon invasion on the continent for decades to come.

He looked again at the time mentioned in the jade scroll, confirming it was fifty years until Yuanzhen Continent.

"There's still a long time to go for that day!"

Thought Duan Gujin, momentarily uninterested in knowing what events might occur on the Yuanzhen Continent fifty years later.

And on the other jade scroll was the Ziwei Divine Sect's fire control technique.

Duan Gujin studied for a while and found the fire control technique to be quite profound.

"Qing Lian, there's a set of fire control secret techniques from the Ziwei Divine Sect here. If you're interested, make a copy!"

Duan Gujin said to Qing Lian below.

"Okay!"

Qing Lian nodded quickly in agreement.

Next to the stone box, there was a name tag.

He picked up the name tag, inspected it with his Divine Sense, and gasped in disbelief.

"Why does this name tag resemble the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order of the Fire Control Divine Sect from the Divine World?"

He examined the surroundings of the name tag, and quickly found a piece of Divine Text at the back of the name tag, recognizing it as the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order.

"Indeed, it's the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order! This Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order is rare even in the Fire Control Divine Sect! Only the elder-level experts possess this Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order. Could it be that the Ziwei Divine Sect is connected to the Fire Control Divine Sect of the Divine World?"

Thinking it over, he found this possibility very high.

He quickly searched through the jade scroll, eventually finding a piece of text stating that the Fire Control Technique could drive away the ice corpses.

However, this method could only drive away the ice corpses and could not destroy them.

Reading this, Duan Gujin frowned. He had heard that the Fire Control Divine Sect was considered a powerful Immortal Sect in the Divine World, yet such a treasure at the elder level of this sect couldn't deal with the ice corpses?

Thinking further, he speculated that it was very likely that the Ziwei Divine Sect didn't know how to control the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order.

After carefully studying the jade scroll again, he soon found a record stating that the elder of the Ziwei Divine Sect, who knew how to operate the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order, had died in battle, so they did not know how to maneuver it.

"So that's it!"

Duan Gujin's Divine Sense entered the item, and after a careful inspection, he confirmed that the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order in his hand was a Divine-level Profound Weapon.

"I have the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order from the Fire Control Divine Sect here! Qing Lian, come up, see, this is a Divine-level Profound Weapon from the Fire Control Divine Sect!"

Qing Lian leaped up onto the slab.

She took the Fire Control Heavenly Divine Order from Duan Gujin, inspected it with her Divine Sense for a while, and said, "This is indeed a real Divine-level Profound Weapon! It's surprising that there's a Divine-level Profound Weapon here on the Yuanzhen Continent, and I believe this Divine-level Profound Weapon is of high grade!"
