Chapter 397 The Seven Stars of Heaven! I am the Ruler of Heaven! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

Inside the Ice God Ruins, Ning Quan, his body covered in frost and resembling an ice sculpture, silently held Xu Ke'er, his gaze fixed on the girl who had entered a state of low temperature. He showed no reaction whatsoever to the mysterious girl who walked in from outside.

Perhaps, in another hour or two, he would witness the girl in his arms, her life extinguished in his embrace.

"Beg me? Perhaps I, the Emperor, will consider saving the human girl in your arms?" The Ice Emperor looked at Ning Quan with a mocking gaze. How could a once-proud human prodigy end up like this? How ridiculous.

"." Ning Quan remained silent in the face of Hyotei's remarks, not uttering a single word.

Because he knew that the mysterious girl not far away, although she looked like a human girl, had a lingering, savage bloodlust about her, and was not someone who would "be kind".

"Heh, how boring." Seeing that he had not received a response, Hyotei gave a somewhat bored snort.

Indeed, she never intended to save the two. If their spirit fusion skill hadn't accidentally torn apart this unstable glacier, allowing their Ice Jade Scorpion clan to reap a great harvest, the Ice Emperor would have already killed them, given that they had killed a ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion.

Furthermore, the fact that she, an ancient soul beast living in seclusion, had revealed herself to the two of them already indicated that she did not intend to let them leave alive.

Unless the two possess the martial soul bloodline of an ice and snow spirit beast, the Ice Emperor might spare them out of consideration for their past as descendants of ice and snow. But now, having seen this ruin, offended the Ice Jade Scorpion, and also seen her, with these triple buffs, the Ice Emperor is merely playing around on a whim.

"But you two are lucky to have survived for two more days." The Ice Emperor shifted his gaze to the rune-covered ice wall behind the two of them, glanced at it casually, and then said with some regret.

Because the runes on this rune-covered ice wall are not the treasure that Hyotei dreamed of, but rather a fragmented pattern that records some kind of rune technology.

Activate? It can't be activated in the slightest.

"It seems fate has decreed that you two will be turned into ice sculptures once again." The Ice Emperor shook her head slightly, then gently raised her hand. The power of extreme ice condensed in her fair palm, and the glaciers on both sides began to grow wildly at this moment, as if they were about to refreeze the place.

Although this Ice God Ruins is not the kind of treasure that the Ice Emperor desires, she does not want humans to know about it and cause trouble, so she plans to freeze it again.

As for those two humans, they're going to die anyway, so it doesn't matter.

Countless ice crystals grew rapidly around him. Only then did Ning Quan slowly raise his head to look at the dome above, which was once again sealed off by the extreme ice crystals. He gently stroked Xu Ke'er's cheek, wiping away the ice and snow between her brows, and sighed softly.

The Seven Star Sword, its dazzling brilliance faded, appeared in Ning Quan's hand.

Finally, Ning Quan slowly spoke, his voice extremely weak and hoarse.

"Cough cough. I thought it was a 100,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion King. But I never expected it. Alas, this is fate."

Ning Quan sighed softly. His body was extremely weak. He held the dim Seven Star Sword. Countless cold poisons erupted from his dantian, causing the meridians throughout his body to freeze.

However, his aura quietly reached the threshold of level seventy.

"Ten thousand years of ice marrow? You're as disgusting as that insect!" With just one glance, the Ice Emperor saw through Ning Quan's actions. This arrogant human had been silently absorbing a fragment of ten thousand years of ice marrow he had found in the ruins these past few days. However, due to the special building materials of the ruins, the Ice Emperor had not realized that the frost in Ning Quan's body was caused by the fragment of ten thousand years of ice marrow.

The powerful ice-attribute ice marrow can indeed increase Ning Quan's soul power level, but at the same time, it will also damage Ning Quan's foundation, and even his life.

But does Ning Quan still care about life now?

Buzz.

The six soul rings flashed on Ning Quan's body for a moment before being frozen instantly, rendering him unable to mobilize his soul power. However, Ning Quan did not care. The cold poison numbed Ning Quan's senses. He stiffly looked down at the girl in his arms who had lost all signs of life, slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, and then looked at the dim Seven Star Sword in his hand.

"This sword was born perfect." In his dazed state, Chen Hong's voice seemed to echo in Ning Quan's ears again.

Yes! The Seven Stars of Heaven! I am Tianquan!

hum!

A powerful and sharp sword intent erupted from Ning Quan in an instant! That sharp sword intent made even the Ice Emperor feel a stinging pain in his soul!

Tianquan, also known as Wenqu, corresponds to intelligence or, more specifically, the soul!

Deng!

The immense, invisible sword intent pierced through the ice layer in an instant, soaring straight into the sky. In the vast snow and wind outside the Ice God Mountain Range, it instantly created a crystal-clear cosmic river!

Swish!

Among the vast starry sky, seven stars suddenly connected, forming a dipper shape. The fourth star suddenly flashed brightly the instant the seven stars connected!

"The universe has changed, how can the Big Dipper appear in this world?!"

Suddenly, starlight descended from the vast starry sky, falling to earth, penetrating the glacial fissures, and instantly condensing on the Seven Star Sword in Ning Quan's hand.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Before the Ice Emperor could even react, he saw the human man, whose body was stiff with cold poison, whose soul power was solidified, and whose soul rings were frozen, holding an ancient longsword that showed no light at all. He looked at the girl in his arms with a lonely yet tender expression. Without even glancing at her, he simply and weakly slashed at her.

However, in Chen Hong's astonished field of vision above the glacier fissure, the pitch-black fissure was now dazzlingly bright!

"This sword strike."

Dao Technique: Heavenly Authority - Slay Me!

A phantom spirit ring flashed past Ning Quan's back. Ning Quan's aura and will reached their peak, and he was about to be annihilated in the next instant.

however,

"Stop being so insolent!"

Permafrost zone!

The Wrath of the Ice Emperor!

In an instant, a surge of immense energy erupted, freezing everything in its path. Ning Quan's final sword strike was still suspended in mid-air when the icy poison within his body suddenly exploded. Together with the Ice Emperor Scorpion's Ice Emperor's Wrath, the combined force from within and without caused the extreme ice to freeze Ning Quan's body and even his mind in an instant!

In an instant, the glacial fissure was repaired within the permafrost domain of Hyotei, and the world changed color in the blink of an eye!

"You dare!"

Suddenly, heaven and earth erupted with a roar containing boundless fury.

The next instant, a deafening roar!

A giant golden sword burning with extreme heat descended from the sky, piercing through the ice layer. In the blink of an eye, it reached the nearly 1,000-meter-long ice layer and collided with the ice claws formed by the Ice Emperor's hands!

Boom!
