The Great Ruler: The Ice Emperor Descends, Freezing the World!

Just as Bing Tianxiao and Luo Li were about to venture deeper, a series of intense spiritual energy fluctuations and an angry shout from the valley below suddenly emanated from them.

"Liu Chen, this gathering point was obtained through our Flower Spirit Points. Your forceful robbery is going too far!"

Bing Tianxiao raised an eyebrow; the voice sounded somewhat familiar.

He exchanged a glance with Luo Li, then moved slightly and approached her.

Looking down, one could see three beautiful figures surrounded by five male students.

The woman leading the group was dressed in a red dress and looked very dashing; she was none other than An Ran, whom I had seen when I enrolled in school.

At this moment, her pretty face turned cold.

Opposite her, a young man named Liu Chen was sneering.

With his near-Transcendent Realm cultivation, he was quite flamboyant here.

"Anran, hunting is a dog-eat-dog world. With just a few of you, going into the gathering point marked on this map would be suicide. You might as well leave it to us."

"Want a map? Dream on!"

An Ran gritted her teeth, held her long sword horizontally, and sword energy surged forth.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

A cold glint flashed in Liu Chen's eyes, and he was about to wave his hand to signal his companion to make a move.

"Wow, what kind of map is this? Let me see it for myself!"

A sound suddenly echoed through the valley.

Liu Chen and the others froze, and everyone instinctively looked up.

On the giant rock, a young man in black robes sat casually.

Beside him stood a girl in a black dress, as beautiful as a fairy.

"Bing... Bing Tianxiao? Luo Li?!"

An Ran recognized the person who had arrived, and a look of surprise immediately flashed in her beautiful eyes.

Liu Chen and the others turned deathly pale instantly.

Nowadays, who in the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy doesn't know the name Bing Tianxiao?

That's the ruthless person who dragged Li Xuantong down from second place on the Heavenly Ranking!

Even though Liu Chen considered himself a skilled fighter in the Transformation Realm, he couldn't even muster the courage to make a move against the freak who could defeat Li Xuantong head-on.

"Bing...Junior Bing, this is just a misunderstanding."

Liu Chenqian laughed, his previous arrogance vanishing completely.

She even unconsciously took a step back.

"We were just joking with Anran, our junior."

"joke?"

Bing Tianxiao leaped lightly and landed in front of An Ran, asking with interest, "Senior An Ran, are there any Spirit Kings at the gathering points marked on this map?"

An Ran shook her head helplessly: "The gathering points were bought from the Spirit Value Hall; we wouldn't even dare to dream of reaching the Spirit King level!"

Bing Tianxiao seemed to understand, but not quite.

Spiritual soldiers and generals posed no challenge for him at all.

Only the "Spirit King" at the Tongtian Realm level is worth fighting.

He turned to look at the trembling Liu Chen and the others, a bright smile on his face: "Do you know if there's a Spirit King there?"

"I...I don't know."

Liu Chen stammered.

"Then why aren't you leaving?"

Bing Tianxiao's gaze swept over them.

Upon hearing this, Liu Chen scrambled to his feet and fled with his companions in a panic.

They were afraid that if they were even a step too slow, they would be easily dealt with by this newly promoted second-ranked person on the Heavenly Ranking.

"Thank you, Junior Bing."

An Ran breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Bing Tianxiao with gratitude.

"Don't mention it, we know each other after all."

Bing Tianxiao chuckled and then asked:

"Senior, where is the Spirit King of this Spirit Realm? Why can't I sense his presence even though I can clearly feel his aura!"

An Ran calmed her breathing. "This is a professional novel website, providing the most comfortable reading experience," she explained. "Junior Brother Bing, the spiritual weapons here aren't scattered throughout the mountains and fields like the demonic beasts outside."

They are formed by the convergence of spiritual energy tides in this space, and are naturally 'clustered'.

Often, a single gathering point will be garrisoned by hundreds or even thousands of spirit soldiers, commanded by several spirit generals.

She paused for a moment: "That's why the academy's Spirit Value Hall sells information about these gathering points."

Without a map to guide you, wandering around this vast space filled with oppressive spiritual energy would be extremely inefficient.

No wonder.

Bing Tianxiao nodded slightly.

When he sensed it before, he always felt that the spiritual energy fluctuations around him were as thick and heavy as swamp.

Although a powerful aura could be sensed from afar, it was as if there was a layer of frosted glass behind it, making it extremely difficult to pinpoint the exact location.

"The oppressive force of this space is even stranger than I imagined; I can't even pinpoint its location."

Bing Tianxiao muttered to himself.

"That's normal."

Luo Li spoke softly from the side:

"The area around here is filled with a strong magnetic field of spiritual energy interference."

Without special marking methods, it would indeed be very difficult to pinpoint the exact location of those large creatures.

An Ran looked at the perfect couple before her and sighed inwardly.

She had thought that her senior class would have a lot of advantages in the spiritual realm, but who would have thought that the freshmen this year would be so monstrous.

The mere presence of Bing Tianxiao standing before her, seemingly casually, exuded a subtle yet palpable sense of oppression that sent shivers down her spine, even though she was only at the Quasi-Transformation Realm.

"Senior Anran, are there any gathering points on your map?"

Bing Tianxiao smiled and spread the parchment out on the boulder.

Since ordinary spirit generals no longer piqued his interest, he had no choice but to continue searching.

"Let's go, together."

An Ran was slightly taken aback: "You...you're willing to take us with you?"

With your combined strength, you two could easily sweep through the map on your own. Bringing us along would only slow you down.

Bing Tianxiao turned his head, looked at her with amusement, and said matter-of-factly, "This map was bought with your Flower Spirit Points. Since we've seen it, isn't it only right that we share it with you?"

Although I, Bing Tianxiao, enjoy fighting, I would never steal from my friends.

Luo Li, standing to the side, nodded slightly, her voice clear and melodious: "The map belongs to you, so you should travel together."

A warm feeling washed over An Ran.

The frustration he felt from being surrounded by Liu Chen vanished instantly.

She took a deep breath, smiled, and her red dress stood out brightly against the dark golden sky.

"Since Junior Brother Bing and Junior Sister Luo Li don't mind, then we'll shamelessly follow behind them."

Without further delay, the group rose into the air in unison.

Led by An Ran, the group transformed into streaks of light, swiftly traversing the towering mountains.

Along the way, they inevitably encountered many other student teams also searching for spirit weapons.

However, whenever those teams tried to approach aggressively, they would see Bing Tianxiao's signature white hair.

Those people retreated frantically without looking back, like mice that had seen a cat.

"That's... Bing Tianxiao, ranked second on the Heavenly Ranking?!"

"Hurry! Don't let him target you. That guy is a ruthless person who even beat Li Xuantong senseless!"

"Isn't that Luo Li next to him? With those two together, who would dare to go up and provoke them?"

Hearing the exclamations and the rapid whooshing of wind coming from afar, the two female students behind An Ran couldn't help but cover their mouths and giggle.

In this perilous hunting ground, they were always on edge.

But now, following behind Bing Tianxiao, I feel a sense of security as if I'm walking on flat ground.
