All Heavens: Sharing Talents with Countless Mes

The python king's left eye had been blinded, and blood kept gushing from its eye socket, staining the ice beneath it red.

Having lost an eye, the python king's attack accuracy was significantly reduced.

Ye Fan seized this opportunity and began to deal with it.

Instead of engaging in direct combat, he used his agile movements to constantly look for opportunities to inflict damage on the python king during its gaps in attack.

If the first attack fails, retreat immediately and never linger in battle.

This process repeated itself, and gradually countless wounds appeared on the python king's body.

Although those wounds were only superficial to its enormous body, the sheer number of wounds caused the bleeding to increase.

Gradually, the python king's movements became slower, and its attacks were no longer as fierce as before.

Ye Fan keenly noticed this change and knew that the time for the decisive battle had arrived.

"Success or failure hinges on this!"

He took a deep breath, and the divine power within his body surged wildly, causing the golden light around him to grow ever brighter.

The next moment, he shot towards the python king's head like a golden meteor.

boom! ! !
A deafening roar echoed across the icy plains, and the python king's massive body was sent flying by the blow.

A huge dent appeared on its head, and brain matter and blood gushed from the wound.

hiss……

The python king let out a final mournful cry, its massive body crashing heavily onto the ice, and then fell silent.

Ye Fan stood there, panting heavily. His entire body was stained red with blood, and it was impossible to tell whether it was his blood or the python king's blood.

His arms hung limply at his sides, trembling slightly.

That attack just now almost exhausted all of his divine power.

If the python king hadn't died, he probably wouldn't have even had the strength to escape.

"Well done."

Chu Yang's voice came from behind.

Ye Fan turned around and saw Chu Yang standing with his hands behind his back, a satisfied smile on his face.

"Brother Tu, I...I won." Ye Fan's voice was hoarse, but a bright smile appeared on his face.

Chu Yang nodded, stepped forward, took out several pills from his storage bag, and handed them to Ye Fan.

"Eat this and recover."

Ye Fan took the pill and swallowed it without any hesitation.

A warm sensation surged from his dantian, and his spirits immediately improved.

"What did you gain from this battle?" Chu Yang asked.

Ye Fan pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I understand what Brother Tu said earlier. The essence of combat lies not in the magnitude of strength, but in seizing the right moment."

"If I had continued to fight it head-on, I probably would have been killed long ago. It was precisely because I identified its weakness and attacked at the right moment that I was able to overcome the stronger opponent."

Chu Yang nodded in satisfaction.

“If you understand this principle, then this battle wasn’t fought in vain,” he said. “The path of cultivation requires not only improving strength, but also improving wisdom. Sometimes, wisdom is even more important than strength.”

Ye Fan kept these words firmly in mind.

"Thank you for your guidance, Brother Tu."

Chu Yang waved his hand: "Let's rest for a bit, then continue our journey. We'll be reaching the core area of ​​the far north soon."

Ye Fan nodded, sat down cross-legged, and began to recover his divine power.

Chu Yang stood to the side, gazing at the vast white sky in the distance, a faint smile playing on his lips.

"Little Leaf, your growth rate is even faster than I expected," he thought to himself. "Perhaps it won't be long before you truly become a powerful individual capable of standing on your own."

The wind and snow gradually subsided, and tranquility returned to the world.

Ye Fan sat cross-legged on the icy plain, his divine power slowly recovering.

Although the fierce battle with the Icefield Python King left him exhausted, it also benefited him greatly.

He felt that his control over the Ancient Sacred Body had deepened, and the power within his body seemed to have become more condensed.

"That's about enough," Chu Yang's voice came from the side. "It's time to set off."

Ye Fan opened his eyes, stood up, and stretched his limbs.

“I’m all set,” he said. “Brother Tu, how far is the core area of ​​the far north?”

Chu Yang raised his hand and pointed to the north, where there was a majestic ice mountain, towering into the clouds. Its summit was obscured by thick clouds, making it impossible to see its full appearance.

“It’s just behind that iceberg,” he said. “If all goes well, it should be about half a day’s journey.”

Ye Fan gazed at the iceberg, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.

What secrets does that forbidden land, which is associated with the ancient emperor, hold?
He couldn't wait to find out.

The two set off again, flying towards the iceberg.

As Ye Fan got closer, he discovered that the iceberg was even larger than he had imagined.

The mountain is crystal clear, reflecting a rainbow of colors under the sunlight, resembling a giant crystal palace.

"How magnificent..." Ye Fan couldn't help but exclaim.

Chu Yang nodded: "This iceberg is called 'Ten Thousand Year Ice Peak,' and it's said to be one of the oldest structures in the far north. Legend has it that it contains a special power of ice, and cultivators who practice ice-attribute techniques will find their efforts twice as effective if they cultivate here."

Ye Fan pondered for a moment: "So, we have to climb over this iceberg?"

“No,” Chu Yang shook his head. “There’s an ancient passage in the mountains that leads directly to the other side. Although that passage is dangerous, it’s much faster than climbing over the mountain.”

The two arrived at the foot of the iceberg and quickly found the entrance to the passage that Chu Yang had mentioned.

It was a huge ice cave, with chilling air emanating from its entrance, and faint lights could be seen flickering inside.

"Watch your step once you're inside," Chu Yang cautioned. "This passage is quite old, and some parts are no longer stable."

Ye Fan nodded and followed Chu Yang into the ice cave.

The temperature inside the cave was several degrees lower than outside, and the breath you exhaled instantly froze into frost.

Fortunately, after these days of training, Ye Fan had developed a certain ability to adapt to the cold, so he didn't feel too uncomfortable.

The passage was winding and twisting, with some glowing minerals embedded in the ice walls on both sides, emitting a faint blue light that illuminated the road ahead.

The two walked along the passage for about an hour when they suddenly heard a strange sound coming from ahead.

The sound was like the breathing of some kind of creature, low and rhythmic, echoing in the narrow passage, sounding particularly eerie.

Ye Fan stopped and looked ahead warily.

“There’s something,” he whispered.

Chu Yang nodded, his expression quite calm.

“It must be the guardian of this passage,” he said. “It is said that an ancient beast dwells here, hunting down cultivators who venture into the passage.”

Ye Fan frowned: "Another strange beast?"

"What, scared?" Chu Yang looked at him with a half-smile.

Ye Fan snorted, "What a joke! I just feel like I've been fighting a lot of strange beasts lately."

Chu Yang laughed heartily: "That's not up to you. Since you've chosen this path, you must face everything along the way."

"Let's go, let's go meet that guy."

The two continued on their way, and after turning a corner, the view suddenly opened up before them.

It was a huge ice cave with a dome tens of feet high, and the ice walls around it were covered with strange patterns, as if they were some kind of ancient totem.

In the very center of the ice cave, a colossal beast was coiled. The beast resembled a lion or tiger, but possessed a pair of enormous wings, its body covered in silvery-white scales, and its eyes gleamed with a chilling blue light as it stared intently at the two intruders.

"This is..." Ye Fan's pupils contracted, "The Ice Soul Suanni?"

The Ice Soul Suanni is one of the ancient mythical beasts, known for its ice-attribute attacks. Its adult form is comparable to a saint in strength.

Although the Ice Soul Suanni before them did not appear to be fully grown, its aura was still incredibly powerful, probably no weaker than the Icefield Python King from before.

"Brother Tu, you're not going to leave me to deal with this all by myself again, are you?" Ye Fan said with a wry smile.

Chu Yang glanced at him, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"What do you think?"

Ye Fan sighed and stepped forward resignedly.

He knew it would be like this.

"Alright, let me do it."

Roar! ! !
The Ice Soul Suanni seemed to sense Ye Fan's provocation, letting out a deafening roar as its massive body soared into the air and pounced towards Ye Fan.

Ye Fan dodged the attack with a quick movement.

The Ice Soul Suanni missed its target, and immediately turned around after landing, spitting out a beam of ice-blue light.

Wherever the beam of light passed, the air was instantly frozen, turning into countless tiny ice crystals.

Ye Fan dared not take the attack head-on, and nimbly dodged the Ice Soul Suanni's attacks while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

Unlike the Icefield Python King, the Ice Soul Suanni not only possesses a formidable physical body, but also boasts powerful ranged attack capabilities.

It would be virtually impossible to blind it like before.

We must find another way.

Ye Fan's gaze swept around the ice cave, and he soon noticed the countless ice cones hanging from the dome.

The icicles varied in size, with the largest being several meters long and appearing extremely sharp.

“Got it!”

Ye Fan's mind raced, and he immediately came up with an idea.

He stopped dodging and instead charged towards the Ice Soul Lion.

Seeing this, the Ice Soul Suanni opened its mouth again and spat out a beam of ice-blue light.

Ye Fan turned his body, barely dodging the beam of light, and at the same time gathered divine power in his hands, blasting it towards the dome above his head.

boom!
A dazzling golden light shot out from his palm, striking a giant ice cone on the dome.

The ice spike fell with tremendous force, hurtling towards the Ice Soul Suanni.

The Ice Soul Lion seemed to have not expected Ye Fan to make this move, and its reaction was a moment too slow.

Boom!

The giant ice spike struck its back squarely, its sharp tip piercing its scales and embedding itself deep into its flesh.

Roar! ! !
The Ice Soul Suanni let out a painful roar, its massive body twisting wildly as it tried to shake off the ice spikes on its back.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ye Fan attacked again, smashing down several ice spikes in succession, causing the Ice Soul Suanni to retreat repeatedly.

"Now!"

He seized the opportunity and, with lightning speed, rushed directly in front of the Ice Soul Suanni.

The fist, imbued with the full power of the Ancient Sacred Body, slammed heavily onto its head.

boom! ! !
A deafening roar echoed within the ice cave as the Ice Soul Suanni's head was slammed into the ground by the punch, causing the entire ice cave to tremble violently.

Ye Fan did not stop. He once again gathered his divine power and bombarded the head of the Ice Soul Suanni continuously.

One punch! Two punches! Three punches!
Each punch carried the power to split mountains and shatter rocks, smashing the Ice Soul Suanni's head into a bloody mess.

Finally, after the seventh punch landed, the Ice Soul Suanni became completely still.

Its massive body collapsed limply to the ground, blood gushing from its head, staining the ice beneath it red.

Ye Fan stood there, panting heavily, his whole body drenched in sweat.

Although this battle was easier than the last one, it still consumed a large amount of his divine power.

"Well done." Chu Yang walked over, a smile of approval on his face. "Your progress is even faster than I expected."

Ye Fan forced a smile: "Thanks to Brother Tu's guidance."

Chu Yang shook his head: "Giving guidance is one thing, being able to understand and apply it is another. It's already quite impressive that you've learned to flexibly utilize the environment in combat in such a short time."

A warm feeling welled up in Ye Fan's heart.

Chu Yang's approval was more important to him than anything else.

"Let's go." Chu Yang patted him on the shoulder. "The exit is just ahead."

The two passed through the ice cave and continued along the passage.

After walking for about half an hour, a blinding light shone from ahead.

"We've arrived," Chu Yang said.

The two quickened their pace and walked out of the passage.

The sight before him left Ye Fan stunned.

It was a world completely different from the outside world.

Instead of blizzards and biting winds, there was a peaceful and serene ice field.

In the very center of the ice field stood a massive altar.

The altar was constructed from a strange blue stone that emitted a faint glow, as if it contained some kind of mysterious power.

At the top of the altar, there is an ancient stone door, tightly closed.

"Is that the legendary entrance to the forbidden area?" Ye Fan stared at the stone door, his heart filled with excitement.

Chu Yang nodded, but his expression became serious.

“Yes, that’s the entrance,” he said. “However, opening that door won’t be easy.”

Ye Fan took out the green copper block from his pocket and said, "I have this. That mysterious senior said that the green copper block is the key to opening the forbidden area."

Chu Yang glanced at the green copper block in his hand and frowned slightly.

“Perhaps,” he said, “but before that, we need to confirm one thing.”

"What's up?"

Chu Yang's gaze swept around the surroundings, and he said in a deep voice, "It seems we are not the only ones who have come here."

Ye Fan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly released his divine sense to explore the surroundings.

The next moment, his expression suddenly changed.

On the other side of the altar, several figures were quietly approaching.

Those figures exuded a cold and powerful aura, clearly not benevolent individuals.

“A member of the Ruthless Clan!” Ye Fan said through gritted teeth.

Chu Yang's lips curled into a cold smile.

"It seems they got here before us."

As soon as he finished speaking, those figures emerged from their hiding places.

The leader was a young man dressed in a black robe. He was handsome, had a cold demeanor, and his eyes were like two sharp swords, staring intently at Ye Fan and Chu Yang.

It was Hua Yunfei. (End of Chapter)
