Death Grip
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and during this time, there were no changes in the Thundercloud Mountain Range, nor did anyone come to disturb Meng Xiner's breakthrough.
Moreover, with Xing Chen guarding by her side, even if someone did come, they would be instantly killed.
Thus, it was calm here, with nothing unexpected happening. Most importantly, Meng Xiner was smoothly absorbing the medicinal power of the Fate Divine Pill, and the aura of fate that had surrounded her had now disappeared.
This proved that Meng Xiner had comprehended fate; as long as her Vital Energy was sufficient, she could truly reach the Gaze of Fate.
"It seems she should be able to break through to the Gaze of Fate without any issues," Xing Chen said, his gaze slightly shifting.
"Indeed, at this point, there shouldn't be any problems. Her breakthrough to the Gaze of Fate is almost a certainty," Hate Emperor nodded in agreement.
Given the current situation, especially with the support of Thunderfire Deity's Legacy power, if Meng Xiner still couldn't break through to the Gaze of Fate, it would truly be unreasonable.
Time passed quickly, and soon several hours had gone by. The aura around Meng Xiner became increasingly restrained.
Finally, after another quarter of an hour, Meng Xiner's eyes suddenly opened wide, and an exceptionally powerful aura emanated from her. This force even made Xing Chen feel a sense of shock.
"Has she really broken through to the Gaze of Fate?" Xing Chen murmured as he looked at Meng Xiner.
In the next moment, Meng Xiner's powerful aura suddenly retracted. She appeared just like an ordinary person, without a trace of a strong person's presence.
"Hehe, how about it? I've broken through to the Gaze of Fate; isn't that impressive?" Meng Xiner said with a cheerful smile on her face as she looked at Xing Chen.
"Yes, very impressive; you almost scared me just now," Xing Chen replied after glancing at Meng Xiner.
"Hehe, my strength can now rank among the top ten on Snow Wind Island. From now on, with me protecting you, you can roam freely on Snow Wind Island," Meng Xiner continued to smile brightly.
"Yes, with you protecting me from now on, I no longer have to worry about being hunted down," Xing Chen echoed.
"Ugh, how boring! Why are you being so agreeable this time? If it were before, you would definitely have a cold expression and say nothing or just brush me off with a few casual remarks," Meng Xiner said after being slightly taken aback by Xing Chen's cooperation.
Hearing Meng Xiner's words, Xing Chen was also taken aback. After thinking for a moment, he realized that since meeting Hate Emperor, his personality seemed to have changed quite a bit—especially in not being so indifferent anymore.
“Hate Emperor, has my personality changed a lot?” Xing Chen asked.
“Did you just realize that?” Hate Emperor rolled his eyes and said, “When I first met you, you weren’t like this at all. You had a cold, coffin-like face and weren’t this humorous.”
“Then why did I change to be like this now?” Xing Chen asked again.
“It’s because you cultivated my Hate Emperor's Art. You transformed from your previous coffin face; all the hatred in your heart was released through Hate Emperor's Art, and without the pressure inside, your personality naturally became much brighter,” Hate Emperor explained.
“So that’s how it is.” Xing Chen finally understood why his personality had changed.
“Are we going back to Thundercloud City now?” At that moment, Meng Xiner’s voice suddenly came through.
“Yes, the Ice and Snow Secret Realm will open after the third thunderclap, and now it’s already the third one. The Ice and Snow Secret Realm should open soon,” Xing Chen nodded.
“Yeah, I also want to spar with some strong opponents to solidify my realm,” Xing Chen added.
“Solidify your realm?” Meng Xiner couldn’t help but glance at Xing Chen. Upon closer inspection, she was shocked to discover that Xing Chen’s cultivation had actually risen from Yang Po Fourfold to Yang Po Sixth Level, which left her feeling quite shaken.
“How did your cultivation improve so quickly? In just two hours, you’ve advanced two levels?” Meng Xiner exclaimed in surprise.
“With your rapid improvement, I naturally can’t fall too far behind. Besides, if I don’t improve quickly, how can I navigate this unfamiliar sea area?” Xing Chen replied slowly.
“Unfamiliar sea area? I remember someone claiming to be from the Hate Sea Region, a person of the Hate Emperor Palace,” Meng Xiner teased with a slight smile.
“That was just casual talk. Don’t you know where I really come from?” Xing Chen glanced at Meng Xiner and shrugged.
“Hehe, alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Let’s head back to Thundercloud City first,” Meng Xiner said with a smile.
“Okay, let’s go back to Thundercloud City.” Xing Chen nodded and then left with Meng Xiner, heading towards the direction of Thundercloud City.
……
Thundercloud City.
Xing Chen and Meng Xiner have now returned here. Rascal is quite well-informed; almost as soon as Xing Chen and the others entered Thundercloud City, Rascal received the news and came to greet them at the city gate.
“Brother Chen, you finally returned! If you hadn’t come back soon, I would have thought you had left Snow Wind Island!” Rascal laughed as he approached.
“Brother Lei, you’re too polite. Since I promised you, I wouldn’t leave without saying goodbye,” Xing Chen replied.
“Haha, Brother Chen, your cultivation has improved again since we last met!” Rascal exclaimed with a hearty laugh.
During this time, Rascal’s cultivation had also significantly advanced, rising from Half-Step Yang Spirit Realm to true Yang Spirit Realm. Although he was still at the first level of the life-observing realm, he was considered quite talented among his peers.
“Brother Chen, follow me. I’ll take you to meet my father to discuss the specifics of the Ice and Snow Secret Realm,” Rascal said with a smile.
Xing Chen and Meng Xiner exchanged glances and then followed behind Rascal, moving forward. With Meng Xiner’s current cultivation level of Gaze of Fate, she was undoubtedly the strongest in Thundercloud City.
Thus, they no longer needed to be as cautious as before, for even if two strong practitioners from the Lei Family, both at Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm, joined forces, they would not be a match for Meng Xiner.
Soon, they arrived at the residence of the Lei Family. Under Rascal’s guidance, they reached the study where the head of the family was located.
“Brother Chen, this is where my father usually stays. We need to discuss the specifics of the Ice and Snow Secret Realm with him,” Rascal said as he knocked on the door. Suddenly, a strong voice came from inside.
“Is that you, Ming'er? Come in!” The voice of Rascal’s father called out.
As Rascal pushed open the door, Xing Chen and Meng Xiner walked in. Upon entering the study, a hint of surprise appeared on Xing Chen’s face. Although it was called a study, its spaciousness and luxury truly astonished both him and Meng Xiner.
“Welcome, Xing Chen, and this young lady. Please take a seat!” The middle-aged man in the study glanced at Xing Chen, then looked at Meng Xiner, before speaking calmly.
This middle-aged man was naturally the head of the Lei Family, known as Lei. His strength was at the level of Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm, surpassing that of the previous elder, Elder Lei.
“Greetings, Head of the Lei Family,” Xing Chen said with cupped hands.
“Friend Xing Chen, with the opening of the Ice and Snow Secret Realm on Snow Wind Island, all major forces will surely compete for it. Our Lei Family is relatively weak among these forces, especially our younger disciples compared to those from other families,” Lei said slowly.
“I’ve heard about your strength from Elder Lei. You were able to withstand one of his attacks without defeat, and it seems your strength has improved again recently. If you can lead our family’s disciples to compete for treasures in the secret realm this time, our gains will surely not be inferior to those of other families.”
"Head of the Lei Family, let's speak plainly. The strength of your Lei Family is definitely not much weaker than that of the other families. The same goes for the younger generation of disciples. Let me lead your family members to the true purpose of going to the Ice and Snow Secret Realm!" Xing Chen said, lightly tapping the armrest of his chair.
"Hehe, my friend Xing Chen is indeed a wise person. The reason I want to invite you to take action this time is that I have received news that a powerful figure from the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace has arrived at Snow Wind Island and intends to help the Liu Family sweep away all forces heading to the Ice and Snow Secret Realm. Our Lei Family has no one who can contend with that powerful figure from the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace," Lei Xiao chuckled.
"The Nine Heavens Imperial Palace?" A hint of excitement appeared in Xing Chen's eyes. He had been looking for a strong opponent to fight, and unexpectedly, just as he was feeling drowsy, someone brought him a pillow. The arrival of the powerful figure from the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace was indeed timely.
"That's right. The person sent by the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace this time is a young powerhouse at the Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm. His strength is so formidable that he can completely crush ordinary Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm practitioners. However, as a member of the Hate Emperor Palace, you should have a way to deal with the powerful figure from the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace," Lei said, his gaze flickering slightly.
"I can handle it, but I won't do it for free. You must provide me with sufficient compensation," Xing Chen replied after pondering for a moment.
"No problem. As long as you can help our Lei Family withstand that Half-Step Soul-Searching Realm powerhouse from the Nine Heavens Imperial Palace, I will definitely offer you satisfactory compensation," Lei said without any hesitation.
"Words alone are not enough; I need to see what kind of compensation it is first," Xing Chen looked at Lei and said.
"Alright, how about this item? Although it is a broken piece, its power is not inferior to that of a High-Level Divine Weapon." Lei said, revealing an object emitting a green glow in his hand.
Xing Chen and Meng Xiner both focused their attention and discovered that this object was actually a fragment of a Divine Weapon. It was only as large as a thumb, but the green light flickered above it, emanating an invisible aura that stirred their minds.
