Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1513 - 631: Endless Icefield, Encounter with Cultivators

Li Yunjing was just about to pursue when the ground suddenly shook violently.

The Tier Four Ice Puppet had returned, and its gigantic ice fist came crashing down!

"Husband, watch out!"

Zhao Qi shouted sternly, her whip flashing in her hand, and with a "snap," it lashed out at the Tier Four Ice Puppet.

The collision generated a shockwave that blew all the surrounding Barbarian warriors away.

"No need to linger in battle! Let’s go!"

Seizing the opportunity, Li Yunjing gathered the two women, and the "Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword" expanded to a hundred feet, its seven-colored radiance carrying the three of them as a streak of light, breaking through the encirclement.

"Activate the Holy Mountain’s restriction!"

From behind came the hysterical roar of the old priest, "They must not escape!"

A quarter of an hour later, a series of snow peaks suddenly lit up with an eerie blue light, and countless runes emerged from beneath the ice layer.

The sky abruptly turned overcast, and in an instant, the large snowflakes transformed into sharp ice blades, sweeping across the sky.

"It’s the Barbarian’s Mountain Protection Array!"

Su Muqing’s face turned pale, "This power is already near the Nascent Soul level..."

"Even Nascent Soul level power cannot stop me!"

Li Yunjing snorted coldly, the sword’s body humming and trembling, as its speed suddenly increased several times, tearing a path through the ice blades that filled the sky.

Just as they were about to break out of the snow mountain range, the void ahead suddenly twisted, and that old priest instantaneously teleported to block their way!

"Leave the ’Profound Ice Soul’!"

The old priest’s face twisted, his body withering visibly to the naked eye, clearly he was casting some sort of forbidden secret technique.

In his hand, a bone staff transformed into a hundred-foot-long bone dragon, spewing out a ghostly blue dragon breath.

"Courting death!"

Li Yunjing’s eyes surged with killing intent, and from the center of his brow, a great seal suddenly flew out.

It was Li Yunjing’s lifebound magical treasure, the "Celestial Thunder Emperor Seal"!

"Boom..."

The dazzling light from the thunderous explosion made the world lose its colors.

When the light dissipated, the old priest was nowhere to be seen, with only a charred segment of a bone staff falling from the sky.

The three didn’t dare to linger, the sword light swept across the last distance in an instant.

As the snow mountains completely disappeared behind them, Su Muqing suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and fainted.

"Her injuries are too severe."

Zhao Qi said gravely after checking, "We must heal her quickly."

Li Yunjing looked towards the vast icefield to the north, and said in a deep voice, "A hundred miles ahead we’ll be beyond the enemy’s divine sense detection range. Let’s find a place to rest temporarily."

He silently lamented in his heart, all along this path heading north, there was no turning back.

Su Muqing’s injuries were quite severe; sending her back alone would be sending her to her death.

But bringing Su Muqing across several continents, heading to the "Land of the Far North," that also depended on whether she was willing!

On the other hand, even if Su Muqing was willing, Li Yunjing wasn’t!

Isn’t she just an extra burden?

Su Muqing’s cultivation was pretty high, at the Golden Core Realm Sixth Layer, but in Li Yunjing’s view, that’s just about it...

Without the Golden Core Realm Ninth Heaven cultivation, she was almost of no help.

More or less one person, it made no difference.

The "Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword" changed direction, drawing a colorful arc among the vast snowstorm.

Three hundred miles away, in the endless icefield, aside from the boundless ice surface, there was nothing, nor an end in sight.

This was the boundary between the "Great Ming Cultivation Realm" and the "Southern Heaven Continent."

Only by traversing this three-thousand-mile icefield could one reach the border and enter the continent’s depths.

The three-thousand-mile icefield was extremely dangerous, and just the frigid temperatures could freeze a Qi Refining Realm Cultivator to death.

If you add in the ice demonic beasts on the icefield and the harsh natural climate, the probability of a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator falling was nearly a death sentence.

Only cultivators like Li Yunjing, Su Muqing, and Zhao Qi, in the Golden Core Realm, could survive here with a chance of successfully reaching the "Southern Heaven Continent."

"Sss..."

The "Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword" continuously unleashed strands of sword qi, cutting a slanted cavity three feet deep out of the thick ice layer.

After Li Yunjing led Zhao Qi and Su Muqing underground, he refilled the cavity with crushed ice, thus creating a space roughly ten feet spacious beneath the deep ice layer.

The three hid here, setting up some restrictions and arrays to avoid the Barbarian’s search.

Sure enough, for the next three days, there were no issues.

Under the protection of Li Yunjing and Zhao Qi, Su Muqing took a healing pill, closed her eyes to meditate and heal her injuries.

"Sigh..."

Gazing at Su Muqing’s pale face, Li Yunjing sighed; he could see at a glance that solely relying on Su Muqing to heal would take at least ten days to half a month.

How could he afford to waste half a month keeping Su Muqing company in an ice cavern?

Thinking of this, Li Yunjing took out the "Yin Yang Treasure Mirror," and cast a spell towards its white surface, instantly causing a brilliant white light to radiate, illuminating Su Muqing’s delicate body.

It didn’t take long before Su Muqing’s eyelashes quivered slightly, and her whole body was enveloped in a warm sensation, with the injured area tingling, seemingly healing rapidly.

"Hmm?"

Zhao Qi watched the scene unfold with great curiosity.

She had seen this magical treasure of Li Yunjing’s before but hadn’t expected it to also have healing properties, truly amazing.

"The ’Yin Yang Treasure Mirror,’ can reverse Yin and Yang, transforming death into life."

Li Yunjing explained calmly, "The white side governs life, the black side governs death."

Under Li Yunjing’s casting, Su Muqing’s pale complexion visibly recovered its rosy hue, and she slowly opened her eyes in surprise, "Seventy percent of my injuries are healed! Fellow Daoist Li, your treasure is truly miraculous!"

"Don’t be too happy just yet."

Li Yunjing put away the treasure mirror, but his brows did not relax: "Fellow Daoist Su, I’ve got bad news for you. We have entered the desolate icefield, moving farther from the ’Great Ming Cultivation Realm.’"
