Cultivation Begins with Daily Intelligence Reports

326: Intelligence UpdateElder Hanyuan seemed to see through his doubts and spoke slowly:

”This is his Opportunity, and also his mission. The God of Bingyi Divine Lord is the ancient god of this Secret Realm, controlling the Law of Ice between heaven and earth. Your friend, Fei Yangyang, possesses a special Bloodline and a pure Soul, making him the chosen Successor of the Divine Lord.

By obtaining the Legacy, he can directly reach the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and his future achievements will be limitless.”

Lin Jingyu, however, already felt suspicious about this and asked.

”Senior, may this Junior see my friend? As long as I confirm he is safe and sound, this Junior will leave immediately, and would never dare disturb the Divine Lord’s Legacy.”

He suppressed his turbulent emotions, trying to seize the Opportunity.

”Impossible.” Elder Hanyuan flatly refused, his tone leaving no room for negotiation. ”The Legacy has reached a critical juncture and cannot tolerate any external interference. You should wait here patiently. Once the Legacy concludes, he will naturally awaken, and you will be able to see him.”

Just then, the entire temple shook violently!

Roars that were clearer and more terrifying than those outside, along with the booming sounds of Spell collisions, faintly drifted in from outside the hall. He could even feel the ice beneath his feet trembling slightly.

Some ancient runes on the walls surrounding the main hall automatically lit up, emitting light. Clearly, the temple’s defensive Restrictions were under immense pressure.

Elder Hanyuan frowned almost imperceptibly, his deep gaze fixed on the temple gate, as if he could penetrate the thick ice walls and see the fierce battle outside.

”Those crazy Guardian Strange Beasts, why are they attacking the temple? To destroy the Legacy?”

Lin Jingyu seized the Opportunity to ask, trying to obtain more information.

He felt that the temple now resembled a gaping abyss ready to swallow everything.

It was countless times more terrifying than the crazed Guardian Strange Beasts.

Elder Hanyuan retracted his gaze, looked at Lin Jingyu, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes:

”Those wicked beasts were originally servants enlightened by the Divine Lord long ago, tasked with guarding the Secret Realm. However, after the Divine Lord lay dormant for ten thousand years, their spiritual intelligence became obscured, and the wildness in their Bloodline resurged. They now delusionally attempt to devour the Origin Divine Power of the Divine Lord’s Legacy to achieve their own success and transform into true ’Gods’! This is an act of rebellion, an unforgivable crime!”

He paused, his gaze falling upon Lin Jingyu, especially the dimly glowing ice soul stone in his hand, and the startling thunder sword that faintly emitted a thunderous aura.

”Although you are an outsider, you possess the Righteous Thunder Law, which restrains the power of ice evil. I just saw you fight, and your strength is considerable. The temple is currently in need of manpower. Although the Temple Guardians are numerous, they are struggling against the siege of those crazed beasts.”

Elder Hanyuan’s tone carried a subtle hint of recruitment: ”If you are willing to lend the temple a hand, help us resist the external enemies, and ensure the Legacy proceeds smoothly, you will then be able to reunite with your friend.”

Lin Jingyu sneered inwardly.

There was definitely something wrong with this place.

But his current strength was too weak; he had no chance to turn hostile.

He could only proceed slowly and search for the truth.

On the surface, however, he remained calm, even showing a trace of ”realization” and ”righteous indignation”: ”So that’s how it is! These strange beasts dare to devour their master; they are truly despicable! This Junior and Fei Yangyang are friends who share life and death; his Opportunity is this Junior’s Opportunity. How can I allow these wicked beasts to destroy it!”

He straightened his posture, cupped his fists, and said, ”This Junior is willing to contribute my meager strength to help the temple resist external enemies and protect the Legacy!”

Elder Hanyuan’s deep gaze lingered on Lin Jingyu’s face for several breaths, seemingly trying to discern his true thoughts.

After a moment, he slowly nodded: ”Good. Only those who recognize the times are heroes. In that case, you shall temporarily report to Bingfeng Commander and assist in defending the ’Northern Profound Gate’.”

He raised his hand and pointed, and an ice-blue token flew into Lin Jingyu’s hand.

”This token allows you to move within specific outer areas of the temple and communicate with the Temple Guardians. Remember, the depths of the temple are a Forbidden Ground; you must not trespass, or the Restriction will be triggered, resulting in the destruction of both body and Soul.”

As his voice fell, a Guardian Commander, whose aura was more refined, who wore Profound Ice Heavy Armor, and who held a giant axe, silently appeared before Lin Jingyu. He glanced at Lin Jingyu with cold eyes and said indifferently:

”I am Bingfeng Commander. Follow me.”

”This Junior understands, and I will certainly abide by the rules.”

Lin Jingyu respectfully replied, then turned and followed Bingfeng Commander toward the passage on the side of the main hall.

He was assigned to the Temple’s North Gate, where the Guardian Strange Beasts were relatively weaker and fewer in number.

Lin Jingyu did not hold back his strength, immediately beginning to constantly snatch and slay Guardian Strange Beasts.

He gained a substantial amount of golden light feedback, enhancing his own Life Origin.

After roughly several hours, the Guardian Strange Beasts slowly retreated.

Lin Jingyu was then arranged to rest in a secret chamber, and simple food rich in Spiritual Qi was delivered to him.

He immediately waved his hand, setting up several simple Restrictions to conceal his aura, and sat down cross-legged.

He began to Cultivate, sinking his mind into his thoughts, constantly paying attention to the Intelligence Panel System.

Now, the only thing he could rely on was the Golden Finger.

The time for the daily refresh was approaching, and he urgently needed new information to part the fog.

The intelligence from the past few days, for some unknown reason, had all been useless.

Perhaps Lin Jingyu had not yet accessed the true secrets of this world.

But today, he had arrived at the Ice and Snow Temple.

As the core of this Secret Realm, he believed there would certainly be auspicious signs today.

When the intelligence information representing the new day surged into his mind like a tide, even with Lin Jingyu’s tempered determination, his Divine Soul felt a violent tremor at that moment.

A bone-chilling coldness shot straight up his spine to the crown of his head, nearly freezing his blood and thoughts.

On the intelligence panel, piece after piece of shocking, paradigm-shifting information about the imminent future clearly emerged, like blood-colored inscriptions:

[Daily Intelligence Refresh.]

[This world within the Profound Ice Secret Realm is the site of the final battle between the ancient ”God of Bingyi” and the ”Skyfire Demon.”

The conflict between the two caused the Origin of this world to collapse and all things to wither.

Later, an unknown great expert from the outside world descended. Unwilling to see this world completely annihilated, they used a supreme Divine Ability to forcefully Seal the main bodies and most of the Origin Laws of both entities within the core of the Secret Realm. Influenced by the residual Laws, the Bloodline descendants of the God of Bingyi subsequently became the ”Ice and Snow God Race Lineage,” and the Skyfire Demon descendants became the ”Guardian Deity Lineage.”]

[They jointly lived within the Ice and Snow Temple.]

[Furthermore, they transformed the Human Race of this world into beings favored by Luck, ensuring that anyone who massacres humans will suffer calamity.]

[The Seal was eroded by ten thousand years of time and began to loosen several thousand years ago. The Ice and Snow God Race used their affinity for humanoid creatures and their methods of stealing the Power Of Faith and Luck to gradually gain the upper hand, forcing the Guardian Deity Clan into a desperate situation, and slandering them as ”Fallen Ones.”]

[Their existence was obscured, making them appear as slaves of the God of Bingyi.]

[Having exhausted all options, the Guardian Deity Lineage could only use the method of protecting the Human Race to evade the pursuit of the Temple Guardians.]

[...Furthermore, the Ice and Snow God Race has extended its reach to the outside world. Qinglan Sect is one of the important factions supported by them, aiming to screen high-quality Physical Bodies for their powerful clansmen’s Divine Souls to descend and perform Possession, thereby infiltrating the outside world!]

[And after over a thousand years of planning, the Ice and Snow Temple Guardian Lineage has even shed their original strange beast bodies, having all undergone Possession to take on the appearance of the Human Race!]
