Sacred Mountain.
On top of the majestic ice crystal mountain, in front of the steep cliff, the rolling snow had formed a thick layer of ice on the edge of the cliff. It was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the sky full of dark clouds and whistling gales. In addition, there were nine straight figures that were as straight as swords.
"They …" The blue-robed old man's throat moved, his face revealing an indescribable grief.
"The one who came was actually the Bronze Supremacy. I didn't expect to alarm this monster. I thought it would be the Third Supremacy, Frost Iron Supremacy. If that's the case, with the strength of the twelve of us, we can still fight." A stern man clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, his eyes ferocious and furious like a wild beast.
Another middle-aged man said quietly, "It's useless. Frost Iron Supremacy isn't someone we can fight against. Don't forget, among the twelve divided worlds, apart from the ancient world, eight of the remaining eleven are occupied by the Eight Great Clans of the Immemorial Era. As for the other three, except for one that has been found, the other two are still drifting in unknown places."
"And among the Eight Great Clans, the Hundun Clan is ranked fourth. Although it can't compare with the top three clans, it's still unimaginably powerful. Even the weakest of the three Supremacies, Frost Iron Supremacy, can easily kill us!"
Everyone was silent. Although they didn't feel comfortable listening to it, they all knew it was the truth.
"What do we do now?" Someone asked.
"That Bronze Supremacy will be here soon. We first retreat into the Radiant Boundary of the Goddess of Light's corpse. With this broken boundary, we can resist him for a while. Fortunately, after countless years, we've eroded a small hole in the Radiant Boundary protecting the Goddess of Light's corpse. Coupled with the Illusory Boundary, if we don't lead the way, outsiders won't be able to find this small hole in a short time." The blue-robed man sighed.
"But after retreating, we'll still be killed by Bronze Supremacy. We'll just be at death's door for a while."
A red-robed woman frowned slightly. She was wrapped in a gauzy skirt, like a puddle of blood on the snow. It was indescribably strange.
"For the time being, we can only stall for time. When we reach the Goddess of Light's Boundary of Light, we will ask the great emissary." The blue-robed old man sighed and slowly turned around from the ice cliff.
"Great Emissary?!" Everyone was shocked.
"We …" The pupils of a woman in a silver robe dilated and constricted. "Are we really going to find that monster …" Her throat seemed to be choked by fear, and her voice trembled as she spoke.
"There's no other way. This is the only way. Otherwise, we'll all die."
The blue-robed old man sighed. He turned his head and looked into the distance. His pitch-black pupils reflected the image of the distant iceberg. After a while, they gradually returned to the pure black color of pearls. "Eh, where did the person holding the sword of the Goddess of Light go? Could it be that he has already snuck into the divine mountain?"
"What!" Everyone's expression changed. One of them couldn't help but ask, "Where are the snow slaves?"
The blue-robed old man gazed into the distance for a while. Then he gradually withdrew his gaze and sighed. "More than half of them are dead. Most of the high ranking snow slaves are still alive. Each of you prepare to bring a snow slave with at least three seals under your command and quickly gather in the main hall."
Everyone's expression was uncertain. Someone couldn't help but want to ask, but the blue-robed old man interrupted him. He suddenly frowned. "Hurry up, Bronze Supremacy will be here soon."
Everyone's expression changed. Without saying anything more, they quickly turned around and returned to their respective temples.
The blue-robed old man also quickly left.
The originally bustling cliff immediately became empty. There was no sound at all. Only the whimpering cold wind blew up from the deep valley of the cliff.
In this cold wind, a white shadow that was like a ray of light slowly walked out from behind a huge rock that was carved out of ice crystals.
The light shone on her body. It was Ye Zhu.
…
Icewind Valley.
An explosion-like green radiance blossomed, followed by a mournful and painful cry. It reverberated in the Icewind Valley, and transmitted to the distant mountains. It resonated with each other from a distance, and issued continuous roars.
Ye Chen stretched out his hand to cover his forehead. A sharp burning pain drilled into his brain from his forehead. It was as if a pool of fiery red lava was trying to invade his brain. His body trembled violently, and his teeth creaked as he clenched them.
The exquisite carvings that Bronze Supremacy had pasted on his forehead quickly attached to his skin like a spider web and slowly seeped into his skin. They moved like blood vessels. Every arc of the carvings seemed to have a life of its own, sucking in Ye Chen's vitality.
Ye Chen's mind was blank. He could only feel this severe pain and couldn't hear anything.
The corners of Bronze Supremacy's mouth curved into a slanted smile as he looked at Jiang Chen's pained expression. "It's indeed a little difficult for a God Emperor like you to devour the seal of an envoy at the peak of the Virtual Sky World. You have to work hard. Otherwise, your brain will explode. I won't be able to help you then.
Under his smiling face, Ye Chen, who was originally twisting his head in pain, suddenly quieted down and held his head motionlessly.
While Bronze Supremacy was a little surprised, he suddenly raised his head and roared to the sky. Invisible sound waves soared into the sky like an atomic bomb. A huge crater appeared in the dark clouds that gathered in the sky. It was as if a huge fist had punched into it, making it look like a frying pan.
The rest of the clouds rippled in all directions like water waves.
"Ahhhhh …"
Ye Chen's throat almost burst. His red eyes were like those of a mad beast, and the cyan light on his forehead bloomed and illuminated the sky like a third eye.
His long hair curled up and stood up, and the muscles all over his body bulged, stretching his clothes tight.
Bronze Supremacy looked at him with some surprise and murmured, "It's really strange. He has such a strong spiritual force with such weak strength. This spiritual force should be comparable to a cultivator at the elementary level of the Virtual Sky World, right?
Eh?
There seems to be a drop of powerful dark creature's blood in his body. Interesting. It seems that he's a lucky person … "
While he was muttering to himself, Ye Chen's long howl continued for a few minutes before he gradually exhausted his strength. His voice had already become hoarse from all the roaring. He gradually lowered his head, and his erect hair also lost its support. It softly fell down and draped over his shoulders. The crimson light in his eyes gradually disappeared, and they became clear again.
After the intense drilling pain in his brain disappeared, a surge of energy flowed into his body from his forehead between his eyebrows, filling his limbs and bones. His whole body was full of strength, and he felt as light as the wind. It seemed that he could fly with a slight movement.
Ye Chen looked up and saw Bronze Supremacy looking at him with gentle eyes. After seeing that he had recovered, Bronze Supremacy said with a smile, "Not bad. Now, you're a real messenger of the origin of wind. You're completely different from the half-baked one from before."
Ye Chen felt the energy in his body and immediately felt that his body was more abundant, as if he had squeezed into a soft cloud. "What about him?" Ye Chen looked up and asked. The "him" he was referring to was naturally the Ten Pavilions Spiritual Master.
"Of course he's dead." Bronze Supremacy shrugged. "His sigil has been taken out, so he's definitely not going to survive."
Ye Chen's expression changed, and anger surged in his heart. He clenched his fists. Although he was so angry that he wanted to strangle Bronze Supremacy to death, the disparity in strength between the two of them made him resist the impulse. The anger in his eyes disappeared in a flash, and he regained his deep indifference. He nodded and did not say anything else.
Bronze Supremacy looked at him meaningfully, and then recovered his indifference. "That was the first repayment I gave you. The second is to make you my first messenger!"
Ye Chen was shocked, but his expression did not change. He looked up and asked, "First messenger?"
"That's right."
Bronze Supremacy raised his chin slightly. "Since you know this little messenger from the Truth World, you should know some inside information. You should also know that among the Eight Ancient Great Families, the Truth Family is ranked behind the Chaos Family. No matter how strong the Truth Family is, it will eventually return to the Chaos.
So now, I want you to be my first messenger. Although you have the wind origin power of the Truth World, this does not prevent me from giving you the power of the first messenger. "
Ye Chen stared at him silently for a while, and then suddenly asked, "You should have a first messenger, right?"
"That's right."
Bronze Supremacy looked down at him and smiled gently. "But with you, there's no need for him. You'll be the first, and he'll naturally be the second. As for the last tenth messenger, he can be disqualified."
Ye Chen was silent for a moment. "What do I need to do to become your first messenger?"
"Become my weapon."
Bronze Supremacy raised his chin proudly. "Kill for me. If you can persist until I die, and you're still alive, then you may become the Supremacy of the Chaos Realm!"
"Does that mean …" Ye Chen raised his head and stared at him. "It also means that you can easily kill me at any time. If I'm not wrong, when you gave me the imprint, it was equivalent to burying a bomb and a joystick in my body. If I don't listen to you, you only need a thought, and I'll disappear."
Bronze Supremacy smiled. "You're right. There's nothing strange about this, because every messenger is like this. Of course, because I took it from your body just now, in the perception of the Truth World, only one messenger of the wind origin died, and I can't control you."
"I understand." Ye Chen nodded. "What if I choose to refuse?"
Bronze Supremacy shrugged and said casually, "It's up to you. I won't force you. However, I don't owe anyone favors. You have to know this."
"I agree." Ye Chen lowered his head and said.
He had no other choice. From the words of the Bronze Sovereign, he already knew that he never owed anyone favors. If he couldn't make the Bronze Sovereign "repay the favor", then he would naturally make the person who had helped him disappear from this world. That way, he wouldn't owe anyone favors.
