Immortal Devil Transformation

Book 16: Chapter 63: Destination



Book 16: Chapter 63: Destination

Snow began to flutter about the porcelain blue sky. However, Lin Xi could already feel the cold in the air fading bit by bit.

He knew that the warm lake was already not far away.

A strange clump of black color suddenly appeared between the blue and gray glaciers.

This was the color of the rock beneath all the ice. When Lin Xi’s party climbed up these black cliffs, an unimaginable scene was once again revealed before their eyes.

They saw a warm lake that stretched out further than their eyes could see.

The lake water was a milky white color. The steam that rose into the air would become sparkling and translucent snowflakes, some returning to the lake, some fluttering towards the distance.

Mulberry tree-like plants grew between the cracks of the rocky shore, their branches adorned with small white flowers.

The lake’s rocks were covered with fleshy dark green water plants, these plants looking like long fishtails.

Behind a shore near their party were extremely even snowy plains.

Countless white sword fiends gathered on these snowy plains like penguins. They were all packed together, their numbers almost endless, no limits in sight.

Since this area was often swept by the lakewater, the snowy plains had been polished smoothly. Moreover, there were layers of lake water that had frozen here, this ice not the blue and gray color of Frozen God Domain but rather a pure white color.

The warm water gradually washed away the fatigue and cold that accumulated in their bodies.

Lin Xi, Gu Xinyin, Nangong Weiyang and Qin Xiyue who chased after the past Principal Zhang’s footsteps began to nurse themselves in this warm lake.

After an initial wave of attack that was even more ferocious, when these white sword fiends realized that they didn’t threaten their livelihoods, they became as harmless as penguins. They even completely treated Lin Xi’s party as if they didn’t exist.

As his strength slowly recovered, when his mind was no longer at the whims of the extreme cold, Lin Xi once again sensed the benefits of a difficult journey to his cultivation. He felt a wave of soul force surge within him with even greater power and density, his perception becoming much sharper as well.

He even felt that the ‘roulette’ in his head became much clearer.

However, he also vaguely realized that his liver seemed to be at odds with the other internal organs and blood vessels of his body. He felt as if it suffered permanent damage… The blood that had been altered by Devil Transformation medicine was also like countless mouths when it flowed past his liver, nibbling away at his liver’s vitality.

When Lin Xi began to sense some of the strange changes happening to himself, yet didn’t know what was going on, Zhang Ping had just completed the subjugation of all northern and central provinces, temporarily disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Zhang Ping was also merely nursing himself in a certain Yunqin place. However, because he didn’t make an appearance, the great Purgatory Mountain battle that had already continued for countless days finally ended. There were more than a hundred thousand deaths, and a small half of Purgatory Mountain was destroyed.

What was aching dully within Zhang Ping’s body wasn’t just his liver, but also his heart.

His heart’s injuries came from Sky Devil Palace’s ‘Flame Rebirth’ technique. This technique allowed those who cultivated Demonization to borrow the external world’s great power and vital energy to forcefully break down the body, and then reforge it to make it even stronger. This was a truly cruel method that smashed his body apart like wrought iron. During this process, he even had to make his soul force take the place of his heart the instant his body was crushed, thus leaving behind some serious injuries in his heart vessels.

The inheritance he received didn’t have any recordings regarding Devil Transformation’s weakness. But while nursing his injuries, he already realized that the reason his liver suffered damage was because of his anger that day.

He knew that he had to restrain his anger, so his face and expression began to grow more and more cold.

The rays of morning shone. The entire Great Desolate Swamp woke up from their slumber.

Many heavy trampling sounds could be heard from within a Traveler’s Root jungle. A group of dark green giant lizards were moving through the forest.

Gao Yanan sat on the back of one of these giant lizards. Her eyes stopped over the surrounding scenery, but her heart was instead always far away.

Meanwhile, in a Great Desolate Swamp underground cave, An Keyi conducted failed experiments one after the next.

The small bottle in front of her carried some diluted black blood.

This black blood came from Lin Xi.

She poured some of the medicine she prepared into a bit of black blood. However, she quickly discovered that the medicine she made was still eaten away by the black blood.

Another failure. However, she didn’t give up. She picked up some books and medicinal liquid, starting to think to herself again.

Purgatory Mountain’s battle ended with Zhang Ping’s sudden disappearance. Because of Zhang Ping’s sudden appearance, many powers went into deeper hiding. They began to endure and accumulate power. Everyone understood clearly that unless they could kill Zhang Ping, even if the entire world was ravaged and scorched, the final winner would always be Zhang Ping.

All of them also understood well that even if Zhang Ping continued to lay low, his followers would still only grow, his own strength would also become greater and greater. Whether or not he had the support of Central Continent City’s cabinet already made no difference. With each passing day Zhang Ping remained in this world, it would be another day all cultivators who opposed him had to hide like rats.

After recovering enough stamina in the warm lake, Lin Xi’s party started their trek through Frozen God Domain again. Unlike before, they now had a clear lead. Even if the journey ahead was still long, even if everyone became weak again, the light in their eyes remained bright.

“Are we almost there?” The winds in this bitter cold gradually calmed, the incredibly uncomfortable ice crystals in the air also began to disappear. When Lin Xi reacted and gave the world before them a deep look, Nangong Weiyang was the first to react. She turned around and asked Lin Xi this.

There were no wind noises. The world was empty and deathly silent. Even though Nangong Weiyang’s voice wasn’t that loud, it traveled quite far, the echo reaching even the distant glaciers.

Under the echoes, Lin Xi continued to gaze forward with narrowed eyes.

Together with that True Dragon Guard battlefield and the warm lake, these two distinct landmarks, and even some clear indicators from the golden armor piece, it was already quite easy for them to find the way. He remained silent for a few more breaths of time, and then said quietly in acknowledgement, “It’s just straight ahead. It’ll take three more days at most.”

All of them already made countless guesses as to Principal Zhang’s situation and the legendary Green Luan Palace remains. However, it was precisely because there were too many guesses that discussing them lacked meaning. Not even Gu Xinyin brought up Principal Zhang’s life or death. They only continued to advance towards their destination.

The closer they approached their destination, the slower time seemed to trickle past in everyone’s minds.

They started to even lose track of how much time had passed. They continued to walk step after step. Suddenly, an expanse of continuously black cliffs stretched out before them.

This was the color of the rock in this place.

This type of original color meant that what laid beyond these cliffs was just like the warm lake, entirely different from the rest of Frozen God Domain.

Lin Xi looked at this black cliff that stretched high into the air. His chest was filled with indescribable emotions that even made his hands tremble continously.

Qin Xiyue stared at the endless black cliffs in a stupor. “We’re here?”

Lin Xi didn’t speak. However, he nodded his head heavily.

Qin Xiyue’s eyes became moist upon receiving this confirmative reply. Several drops of sparkling tears slid down from her eyes again, but her face was instead filled with a proud smile.

She still wasn’t a Sacred Expert.

Yet she managed to travel through this Frozen God Domain only Sacred Experts had a chance of exploring. They were now even about to encounter the world’s most mysterious unknown place. This feeling of satisfaction and pride that transcended life and death wasn’t something words could possibly describe.

They finally arrived.

Ever since Lin Xi joined Green Luan Academy and saw the tablet inscriptions Principal Zhang left behind, Lin Xi already decided that he had to make a trip to Frozen God Domain. This middle-aged uncle, for him, also carried the significance of an entirely different world.

In this moment, he felt as if the two entirely different worlds finally truly merged into one.

An indescribable atmosphere surrounded all of them. All of them became a bit speechless, their bodies a bit stiff as they silently headed towards the black cliffs ahead.

A solemn and dignified aura was surging from behind this cliff. When they reached the top of this cliff and saw the world that laid beyond, all of them entered a dumbfounded state of shock.

The world before them was empty.

There was no level ground behind the cliffs, but rather a valley that suddenly caved in.

The valley stretched out endlessly. Inside the valley was ice even more pure and resplendent than the purest of crystals.

These crystal chunks ranged from the size of a person all the way to a mountain peak.

These chunks of ice extended out endlessly, making it seem as if the cliff they stood on was a cliff by an endless sea. It was as if they were staring into a great ocean from this cliff.

In a certain area, a massive expanse of ice surrounded a giant palace.

Even though Lin Xi was sure that this giant palace built on many crystal-like chunks was precisely the legendary Green Luan Palace remains, when this type of legendary place was presented right before him, he still couldn’t help but feel as if everything wasn’t quite real.

Gu Xinyin, Nangong Weiyang and Qin Xiyue were also in a daze, remaining motionless for a long time.

That palace was more massive than any other palace in this world. Just the vacant land in front of the palace was several times the size of that plaza in front of Central Continent Imperial City.

The palace was built from piece after piece of green jade-like stone. The height of just one or two of these stones already reached the height of Central Continent Imperial City’s city walls.

What was even more miraculous was that this palace itself and all of the surrounding crystal valley were covered in massive runes. There were several hundred crystal paths that linked up the surrounding pillars of ice-like bridges, leading up to this giant palace.

The one who recovered some of his composure first was actually Lin Xi.

After all, he had already seen some buildings of similar scale from his past world.

“Let’s go.”

He was the first to speak. Borrowing areas that were comparatively more level, he began to continuously leap down.

The massive palace grew closer and closer. Regardless of whether it was the runes on the giant palace or the ice crystals, they already long became blurry and unrecognizable from the passage of time. Some of the runes even lost their color. However, when Lin Xi was still a dozen or so steps from the closest path covered in runes, a wave of unimaginable pressure was already released from the runes, crushing down on Lin Xi’s body!

Pu!

Blood gushed out crazily from Lin Xi’s mouth. His body was immediately blasted flying like a kite with its string cut, flung high into the sky.
