"Ah, I've been eaten!" Peng Yue opened his mouth wide, looking at the giant beast behind him, shouting, "It's the Ice Spirit Beast, a giant beast from deep within the Extreme Ice Wasteland! They have huge mouths and are said to be descendants of the Sky Swallowing Beast, evolving into floating giants in the Snow Domain!"
"Zi Yu has been eaten?" Yun Xiaoxi furrowed her brows, gazing at the Ice Spirit Beast in the sky. A hint of shock flashed in her beautiful eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. As a Starry Sky Level Five expert, her perception extended outward, allowing her to clearly sense Ye Yang's aura. That powerful True Qi of a Starry Sky Sixth Level expert had not weakened at all, which meant that this Ice Spirit Beast had not harmed Ye Yang in the slightest.
Yan Yao was so frightened that she trembled and burst into tears, holding her sword as tears streamed down her face. "Brother... Brother was eaten by the big monster... I want to avenge him!"
Saying this, Yan Yao flew up with her sword, and the sword light shot towards the Ice Spirit Beast!
"Yan Yao, don't be impulsive!"
Yun Xiaoxi flew up and grabbed Yan Yao, whispering, "Zi Yu is not dead. Calm down; you can sense his aura. His power hasn't weakened at all. Moreover, look! The Ice Spirit Beast hasn't moved at all since it swallowed Zi Yu..."
"Huh?"
Yan Yao opened her mouth wide, looking at the Ice Spirit Beast in the sky. Just as Yun Xiaoxi said, this Ice Spirit Beast indeed showed no signs of movement.
The Ice Spirit Beast was enormous, like a large balloon floating in the air, covered in ice spikes. Its wide-open mouth was even more terrifying, filled with inverted frost spikes. If it were to swallow its prey, those spikes alone could shred it into pieces before digestion.
However, now that Ye Yang had been swallowed by the Ice Spirit Beast, there was not a hint of movement from it; instead, it seemed struck by lightning, floating motionless in the air.
Peng Yue looked horrified and said, "The Ice Spirit Beast is a Starry Sky Level Four beast; Ye Yang is doomed! He must have been swallowed and digested by the Ice Spirit Beast!"
Yun Xiaoxi's pretty face turned cold as she threw a punch across the air. With a "smack," she struck Peng Yue's nose, causing it to bleed. She said lightly, "Be quiet; you're so noisy!"
Peng Yue felt humiliated and furious; as a dignified Prime Minister of Wei Kingdom, he had been scolded into silence by a young girl and felt very wronged.
At that moment, the Ice Spirit Beast suddenly turned red, and with a "puff," it let out a fiery belch, startling Peng Yue to the point of nearly fainting.
From the fiery belch, Ye Yang broke through, without even drawing the Azure Soul Sword. Flames swirled around his iron fists, and his handsome face turned dark with anger: "What a big dog, its breath stinks!"
Yun Xiaoxi replied expressionlessly, "Which eye of yours saw that it's a big dog?"
"Oh?"
Ye Yang turned to look and suddenly raised his fist: "No matter, I'm going to start disciplining it!"
In the next moment, countless fiery fist imprints illuminated the air as they slammed against the Ice Spirit Beast's ball-like body with loud bangs, causing it to howl in agony as it fell down.
Yan Yao exclaimed in delight: "I told you, how could my brother be eaten by a beast of Starry Sky Fourth Level..."
Yun Xiaoxi chuckled lightly: "Then who was it that cried tears out of fear just now?"
"Sister Yun!" Yan Yao whimpered, her cheeks flushed.
Ye Yang observed this and said, "Forget it; the air up there seems very dangerous. Let's move to the ground. The air currents are harsh and indeed too severe; visibility is gone, and we can't continue flying."
Yun Xiaoxi nodded: "Mm."
...
The four of them floated down to the ground. Once they landed, the wind blades on the ground were much gentler. Although still bone-chilling, it was far more bearable than in the air. Ye Yang estimated that the cold winds above had at least the strength of a level twelve storm. If they weren't all Starry Sky Experts, they would have been torn apart by the storm long ago.
On the ground, a glacier stretched into the distance, an endless expanse of ice and snow where not a hint of green could be seen. However, in search of the legendary Frost Dragon Bone, everything was worth it. Ye Yang understood deeply that for the Fire God Clan to rise again, he couldn't rely solely on himself; new Fire God Warriors needed to be forged. Moreover, he did not belong to this world and could not protect the Fire God Clan forever. One day he would have to leave, so when that time came, he needed to ensure that the Fire God Clan possessed the strength to defend itself.
Ye Shuang and Peng Yue'er, at least these two individuals must be forged into powerful Fire God Warriors, especially Ye Shuang. He is the only one from the main line of the Ye Family besides Ye Yang. Unfortunately, his weak constitution has caused Ye Beichi great concern. Every time Ye Beichi thinks of his graying hair and the repeated disappointments with his beloved son, it deeply pains Ye Yang as well. If Ye Shuang could be transformed into a Fire God Warrior, it would undoubtedly bring comfort to Ye Beichi's old heart.
Peng Yue tightened his bear skin cloak, looked up at the sky, his face filled with bitterness and helplessness, and said, "Ye Shao Xia, do we really have to enter the depths of the Wilderness at night?"
"What's wrong?" Ye Yang asked.
Peng Yue replied, "In my early years of cultivation, I never entered the Wilderness at night. It is rumored that the nights in the Wilderness are filled with dangers. Even Starry Sky Experts have perished in the Wilderness countless times. Once, there was a Warring States Ranger named Qin Long who roamed the continent, defeating numerous renowned masters with his Battle Blade and was once hailed as a Sword Demon. However, when Qin Long entered the Wilderness for cultivation and only did so at night, he was eventually found dead on the edge of the Wilderness, his soul shattered and his body nearly roasted into a meat patty..."
Ye Yang shuddered: "A meat patty... he was burned by a fire?"
"I don't know..." Peng Yue shook his head and said, "In any case, even a Sword Demon level expert has perished in the Wilderness. I think we should find a place to camp for the night here and enter the core area of the Wilderness after dawn."
"No, let's go now!"
Ye Yang drew out the Azure Soul Sword from his back and said, "If that Qin Long is a Sword Demon, then I can now be called a Sword Saint. I ask you, who in this world can match my swordsmanship?"
Peng Yue was taken aback: "Well then..."
Yun Xiaoxi widened her beautiful eyes and looked at Ye Yang: "Your pig-slaughtering style Fire God Three Strikes actually dares to claim your swordsmanship is unmatched? Hey, that's too shameless! Our Serene Gate disciples who have been practicing for three years probably have sword skills hundreds of times stronger than yours..."
Ye Yang grinned: "Swordsmanship is just superficial; absolute power and understanding of laws are what truly command respect."
Yan Yao chuckled lightly: "Yes, brother is right. The so-called techniques indeed seem too pale in front of absolute power and domain."
Yun Xiaoxi pouted: "Hmph, you siblings just bully me since I'm all alone."
Ye Yang couldn't help but chuckle as he wrapped his arm around Yun Xiaoxi's shoulder under her cloak and said: "Xiaoxi, how could that be? This time it's almost like I'm taking you and Yan Yao out to travel the world while looking for Dragon Bones..."
Yun Xiaoxi let out a soft whimper, lowering her head, her face instantly flushed, unafraid of the biting cold, her cheeks glowing.
As night gradually fell, the four of them ventured deeper into the Snow Domain.
The surroundings were disorienting and pitch black. Peng Yue said, "This is too dark; we need to find a place to set up camp and rest for the night to recover our strength!"
Ye Yang replied, "No, we must keep moving. Use your Fire God Power to ignite the War Blade and lead the way."
Peng Yue was taken aback. "You're also a Fire God Warrior; why should I be the one to light the War Blade and lead instead of you?"
Ye Yang said, "I need to conserve my strength. If we encounter a formidable opponent again, I will still have the energy and True Qi to protect you..."
"Protect me..."
Peng Yue pondered for a moment, feeling that this kid in front of her was quite shameless.
